“	My world was stolen, my heart was stolen, my connection to my friends was even broken, but even if that’s my fate, the road to walk, the way that will lead me home, I’ll always keep facing it.	„
	~ Sora to himself at the end of KHIII

“	I've been having these weird thoughts lately, like, is any of this for real or not?	„
	~ Sora to himself

“	I know the Keyblade didn't choose me, and I don't care. I'm proud to be a small part of something bigger - The people it did choose. My friends... they are my power!	„
	~ Sora to Xemnas and Xigbar

“	Xemnas, there's more to a heart than just anger and hate. It's full of all kinds of feelings. Don't you remember?	„
	~ Sora to Xemnas

“	That's not true! The heart may be weak, and sometimes it may even give in. But I've learned that deep down, there's a light that never goes out!	„
	~ Sora to Ansem

“	Give me strength!	„
	~ Sora upon calling upon the power of his friends

Summary

Sora is a cheerful, young boy hailing from the Destiny Islands and the main protagonist of the Kingdom Hearts series. Longing to see the worlds outside of his own, he and his friends Riku and Kairi pledged to build a raft and set out together. However, on their planned day of departure, a freak storm hit their home and their world was subsequently engulfed by the Darkness. It was at this time that Sora unlocked his ability to wield a Keyblade, a weapon of legend that is said to bring salvation or destruction but is thrown into a Corridor of Darkness despite his efforts to combat the shadows that were swarming his home. Awakening in Traverse Town, he soon sets out with Goofy and Donald Duck, attendants to King Mickey, to discover the mystery behind the darkness and reunite with his friends.

Attack Potency: Wall level+ (Can bust crates at this level) | Multiverse level (Sora's strength of heart, which directly correlates to the one of his Keyblade, significantly affected the KH of Worlds by making it unleash its true power and cause it to vanish shortly after, which sustained an infinite space with its own time axis. The existence of all worlds are tied to the KH of Worlds, which are universes and there's as many as stars) | Multiverse level (Fought Riku Replica, and so should be on the level of Dark Mode Riku) | Multiverse level in base (At the start of KHII, he merged back with Roxas, who had half of his power, and so should be twice as strong than Final Form Xion, can directly damage Genie Jafar unlike in KHI and KHCoM, Genie remarks that Data-Sora (Who's comparable to KHI Sora at the time) couldn't damage Genie Jafar, who was comparable to the real deal out of the manner Jiminy's Journal Datascape parallels the main universe), Multiverse level, eventually Low Complex Multiverse level with summons, Drive Forms and Trinity Limit (They rely on Drive Orbs, a power source, which becomes upgraded as Sora practices with them, which when combined with Stitch and Peter Pan scaling to Lingering Will at around the end of KHII results into them being consistently on this level) | Low Complex Multiverse level (KH3D Sora starts off on the level of Drive Form KHII Sora^[2], comparable to Riku, who could fight Young Xehanort) | Low Complex Multiverse level (Sora became even stronger, could overpower Xehanort alongside Donald and Goofy), higher with Formchanges (Formchanges are considered as a more advanced and superior technique compared to Drive Forms^[3])

Speed: Athletic Human (Sora is an athletic teenager) | Infinite (The Realm of Darkness parallels the Realm of Light, which in itself alongside the Realm Between make up the Ocean Between, an infinite 5-D structure. Is comparable to Aqua, who has endlessly wandered in it, and could reach by movement the furthest area of it in a finite timeframe)

Lifting Strength: Class 10 (Can push boulders) | At least Class M (Could overpower a huge beast made of solid stone while nerfed as a lion)

Striking Strength: Wall level+ | Multiverse level | Multiverse level | Multiverse level in base, Multiverse level, eventually Low Complex Multiverse level with Drive Forms | Low Complex Multiverse level | Low Complex Multiverse level, higher with Formchanges

Durability: Wall level+ (Can take hits from Riku) | Multiverse level (Has taken hits from the likes of Ansem and Riku), Low Complex Multiverse level with Second Chance (Such ability has displayed to still work even at this level^[4]) | Multiverse level, Low Complex Multiverse level with Second Chance | Multiverse level in base, Multiverse level, eventually Low Complex Multiverse level with Drive Forms, Low Complex Multiverse level with Second Chance and Once More | Low Complex Multiverse level | Low Complex Multiverse level

Stamina: Above Average (Sora is an athletic teenager that plays sports all day with his friends) | Very high, can completely bulldoze through 1,000 Heartless and have long fights with equally powerful enemies, has been going from world to world for years doing pretty much nothing but fighting. Fought against Ansem and Xemnas in several battles in each of their final fights respectively.

Range: Standard Melee Range, Extended Melee Range with the wood sword | Extended Melee Range, Tens of Meters with Keyblade telepathy and with regular melee, Planetary with magic, Interdimensional with Keyholes (Sora can open portals to travel from reaching other worlds (universes), to reaching the other Low Complex Multiversal structure that is the Realm of Darkness), Low Complex Multiversal with the Χ-Blade.

Standard Equipment:

Note: Pre-Keyblade, Sora only holds as Standard Equipment his wood sword, Potions and the Protect Chain accessory, KHIII Sora also has the X-Blade as Standard Equipment.

(Kingdom Key): Through channeling one's strength of heart, the user can summon a Keyblade to use in battle. Sora's Keyblade is the Kingdom Key, a weapon from the realm of light. Through the use of the Keyblade, the user is granted increased strength, speed, durability, and increased magical power, as well as access to special abilities, like turning your Keyblade into a bike or whip. Thus far, Sora has not demonstrated such special abilities as of KHII but has finally obtained such in KHIII, implying his mastery of the ability after training under Yen Sid.

Found among all Keyblades, Keychains allow the user's Keyblade to change shape and abilities, which vary a lot depending on the user and the Keychain itself.

Sora can quickly change the Keychain of his Keyblade by resummoning his own Keyblade with another Keychain, which is by default in its true form, the Kingdom Key.

The following are all the forms Sora's Keyblade can take from the respective Keychain:

KHI

KHII

KH3D

KHIII

As a wide variety of chains, belts, ribbons, bandannas, and armlets, among others, they grant Sora with a minor but still usable increase in stats, with some of the most noteworthy ones boosting his Resistances to most elemental attacks, with others like the Shock Charm+ boosting the power of his Thunder spell.

As rings, bands, belts, armlets, and badges, among others, they grant Sora with useful abilities for a fight, from boosting the power of his elemental attacks, increasing his Resistance to attacks and many others, also granting a minor but still usable increase in stats.

The Gummi Ship is the main way Sora travels across the Realm of Light, holding a wide variety of weapons, Sora can do many techniques with it when fighting in the middle of space.

Intelligence:

Average, while Sora has played with a wood sword to pass time with his friends for a while, he's still remarked on mainly swinging it like a toy, and lacks experience in general, but has still been able to keep pace with Riku (both in combat and on a race), somebody slightly older, at the time, and three kids of his age at once. Besides combat, while Sora has only been in Destiny Islands, and so is quite unaware of much else, the fact Kairi was confirmed to go to school a bit after the start of KHII implies Sora was subject to an educative system previously, Sora was also clever enough to find the items Kairi requested for the trip in the raft they were going to have, notably including swimming for fish and pushing a boulder for a mushroom.

Gifted, Sora has taught himself a variety of Keyblade techniques, magical spells, and supporting abilities that have served him well on his journeys in just a few months, even being compared to Keyblade Masters, which when trained formally normally take years to even be considered as such, while also having fought countless foes on a wide variety of environments such as while airbone, grounded and underwater, even having fought as a merman on the last one without much issue, and could make the most of his own abilities to counteract the Phantom's intangibility.

Above Average, likely Gifted, Sora could also eventually grasp how to drive the Gummi Ship, an inter-universal travel device to travel between the Worlds in the Ocean Between, while also dodging hostile ships and attacking back with proper aim of his own. Sora has also traveled across several Worlds alongside Donald Duck and Goofy, and so is experienced with several kinds of cultures and ways to blend in them without disrupting their order, although he forgets to do so at times regardless, and has a good memory on patterns as he can follow up the original Black Ballade from its clones, and repeat the jumping patterns of Tigger and Roo. Sora also managed to keep track of the ways Tigger was headed to to block him from stomping the carrots, and quickly learned how to swing himself on vines and slide on trees.

Gifted, even when Sora lost most of his memories as a side effect of Naminé messing with them at nearly the start, Sora managed to regain most of his former abilities by reinventing them from the start, even discovering more advanced techniques such as Lethal Frame and Ultimate-Class magic spells like Mega Flare, all while also mastering the unique card system all attacks are bound to in Castle Oblivion to his advantage, and learning to use large waves of homing attacks like Firaga Burst. Sora also managed to defeat some of the stronger members of Organization XIII like Marluxia and Larxene, the latter of which is regarded as one of the fastest characters in the series.

Above Average, likely Gifted, Sora retained his previous mental skills, and has displayed a quick grasp of sky-diving and sorting off vegetables while also keeping Pooh safe as well, Sora also redisplayed the capability to memorize the jumping patterns of Tigger.

Genius, Sora is remarked as a master swordman not long after the start of this journey even when he lost once again most of his powers at the start. Sora has also shown the ability to perfectly replicate attacks after seeing them a single time, showing heightened combat awareness and dynamic thinking skills, which is denoted in his capability to dual-wield Keyblades. He has even proven himself capable of using his opponent's weapons against them, utilizing Saïx's Claymore and copying his Berserk state, throwing Marluxia's own scythe at him while dealing with a death timer, backfiring Luxord's Law Manipulation-based "games", copying Xaldin's jumping attacks, using Demyx's clones against them, and stealing Roxas' Keyblades, notably triple-wielding Keyblades in the process. Sora has also shown a solid capability of teamwork, being able to consistently combine his strength with that of allies like Tron, Simba, Auron and Riku, most notably deflecting countless lasers at once from all directions alongside Riku. Sora could also keep up with Lingering Will, who had power directly comparable to Keyblade Masters and could defeat Braig, who had several generations of experience as formerly Luxu, and is stated to have used his Keyblade with more ease than Sora, even mastering the usage of several weapons from his transformed Keyblade, yet Sora could still keep up with Drive Forms and teamwork with summons.

Above Average, likely Gifted, Sora is so good at skating many even ask him to test skateboard prototypes, has done jobs like mail delivery to birds mid-flight with it, and could slide across the 100 Acre Wood with Pooh, Sora also has good timing for gambling, is well-trained on singing and dancing for spectacles underwater, and could follow the original Mushroom X apart of its clones, could ride the Magic Carpet and the Light Cycle without issue. Also, despite his kind nature, he is not easily swayed by his foes' sweet words. While Sora was fooled on Mulan pretending to be a boy early on, he quickly saw past Xemnas's attempts to paint himself as the victim (which was far more convincing than Mulan's disguise) and perceived him for the monster that he is and proceeded to defeat him alongside Riku.

Genius, while Sora lost most of his powers for the Mark of Mastery exam, he still quickly learned from the start how to use Flowmotion, allowing him to become considerably more acrobatic while also making the most of his environment (such as jumping on Xemnas' barriers to reach and hit him), while also eventually grasping even more advanced magic, going to the first time using -za level magic with Zero Graviza, and being capable to defeat Xemnas on his own, and react to Xigbar's lasers instinctively. Sora's sky-diving skills also got upgraded, as he can fight even while doing so.

Gifted, not only was Sora clever to use the same raft his past self left abandoned in Destiny Islands to leave it alongside Riku, Sora quickly learned on his own how to raise his own Dream Eaters, playing with them and managed to use the remains of Nightmares to create them. Sora also grasped a considerable amount of information from Yen Sid, such as the nature of Dream Eaters and Sleeping Worlds, the relation between the Princesses of Heart to Kingdom Hearts and the Keyblade War. Of note is that Sora is smart enough to reprogram his enemies and digital objects for several effects of variable complexity, going as far as ignoring password requirements, causing enemies to become allies or self destruct and limit their options.

Genius, not only has Sora quickly learned the usage of each Formchange of his Keyblade as soon as he got each one, Sora has mastered literally hundreds of techniques and is more than skilled to combine them for efficient and smooth results, ranging from close quarters combat to shooting and the usage of several kinds of large weapons and vehicles, often even dual-wielding and targeting tens of targets at once from all directions, from his Keyblade transformations, rendering him pretty unpredictable and adaptable to virtually any situation, with opponents often being unable to even escape a combo if they can't use significant mobility alternatives like Flight or Teleportation. People from the age of fairy tales consider the powers of beings of the future like Sora as "unimaginable forces", and with the medals, they call upon his power to copy his moves, thus rendering him as a prominent historical figure in Keyblade usage. After losing most of his powers again at the start, he eventually became even stronger than before, being capable of bringing down formally trained Keyblade Masters like Aqua in little time, Sora also eventually took down most of the new Organisation XIII, being capable to hold back even 13 opponents on his level at once while also having to worry about lasers targeting him at the same time in the final fight against Xehanort, who is stated to be arguably the most powerful Keyblade wielder, Sora could even continue standing against Xehanort while having to fight underwater or in the air, and could analyze Yozora's attack patterns to find unconventional openings to abuse even while being pressured by other constant attacks. A digital copy of Sora also managed to deflect Xemnas' laser dome on his own, which is a wave of lasers from all directions Sora previously had to synchronize with Riku to deflect together, even while also having to evade unblockable beams.

Gifted, after so many adventures, Sora has only been improving since then. Sora has easily danced with the folks of Kingdom of Corona, could skate along the ground as if it was ice with Blizzard Blades, piloted a ship across the Caribbean, has experience as a chef in a five star restaurant, and is so good of a photographer the Moogles request Sora to take pictures of miscellaneous things across the Worlds, can even take pictures while being pressured by the threat of opponents, and was praised by a Flantastic Seven member for taking pictures of them in the right moment even with a limited photo capability.

Standard Tactics:

Sora is quite limited in options here, as he only holds basic Keyblade attacks, the Firaga, Thundaga, Blizzaga, Graviga, Stopga, Aeroga (Defensive variant), Curaga, the summons Simba, Genie, Bambi, Dumbo, Tinker Bell and Mushu, and advanced Keyblade techniques like Ars Arcanum, Sonic Blade, Ragnarok, and Strike Raid.

Sora will try to attack the opponent close combat with his Keyblade, a bit later using magic to keep his distance to not leave himself too vulnerable from just doing that. If the opponent is tough, Sora may summon Tinker Bell so that he can heal without much issue, or Bambi if he is running out of magic, if the opponent doesn't resist Stopga, Sora can abuse it to keep the target in place so he can attack freely.

Other summons may also be used if Sora thinks he can use them freely, the same also applies to the advanced Keyblade techniques.

Sora keeps all of his past abilities in KHI, but Simba, Genie, Bambi, and Mushu do different things than before, with Cloud also being a summon now, however, Sora uses Sleights most of the time instead, allowing him to do techniques like Lethal Frame or Gravity Raid. Sora abuses the Power Nullification and mechanics of the cards to win, however, as each enemy card eventually wears down, Sora will be weaker than when he started after a while.

Thanks to the Platinum Card, Jafar, Air Pirate, and Creeper Plant cards, Sora can turn himself with a degree of Invulnerability via passively nulling opposing attacks, allowing him to freely setup Sleights; the Darkball card prevents Sora from being a victim of Information Analysis, allowing Sora to surprise some foes with his techniques, and the Neoshadow Card also allows Sora to damage opponents regardless of what he may do in the meantime for a while.

Enemy Cards that have to be manually used are available to Sora for use depending on what he sees the foe using the most to attack, outside of that Sora keeps the same character as in KHI.

Sora forgot most of his previous abilities, of which he got a variant of Firaga that spins around himself, Blizzaga, Thundaga, Curaga and the new Magnega and Reflega, the summons Stitch, Chicken Little, Peter Pan (Tinker Bell included) and Genie.

Sora also gets the Drive Forms, allowing Sora to increase his own power and heal himself in the process, which thanks to Second Chance he will do so if he doesn't have enough time to use a Potion or cast Curaga if he already ran out of magic.

Outside of that, Sora will try to attack his opponent with his basic combo then offensive magic as needed, other techniques, spells, summons and so on may be used depending on if the situation calls for it.

Sora no longer has any of the summons of before, but he can use Link Attacks and Dual Attacks alongside two of his Dream Eaters (Which he can change as needed), Flowmotion is also a new trick for Sora here, allowing to perform a lot of aerial strategies as needed. As Sora's basic combo is not as effective as in past games, Sora uses advanced Keyblade Techniques like Ars Arcanum or Magic spells like Zero Graviza to attack, Flowmotion is also the most used if the target is too tough, and as usual, Sora will use any of his available options depending on what the situation calls for.

Sora now holds only the Firaga, Blizzaga, Thundaga, Aeroga (Offensive variation), Curaga and the new Waterga (Also including their Grand Magic variations), the summons Stitch, Ariel, Simba, Wreck-It Ralph, Meow Wow and Pegasus. Sora also keeps Flowmotion, but it no longer is as good as before beyond now it being his main way to get closer to a target.

Sora also gets the new Formchanges, which allow Sora to change the form of his Keyblade and techniques depending on what the situation calls for, the same also applies to Shotlocks, homing attacks, some of which allow Sora to attack in more unique ways than others.

Just like other variations of Sora's character, Sora will lead with the basic Keyblade combo, then he will use Magic and other techniques to keep his distance, after a while he will be able to use a Formchange, which will empower all of his available options, Sora can also switch Keychain at will to change Formchange as needed, including even in the middle of a combo.

Attraction Flow is also a new option, however, it is normally used when having to deal with a lot of opponents, rather than a single one unless Sora isn't really vulnerable while performing such.

Weaknesses: Sora's supply of magic is not infinite, forcing Sora to use his supply sparingly and thoughtfully (But it can recharge over time, he can also use an Ether or Elixir-family item to immediately refill it, summon Bambi (KHI), get himself hit so that it is recharged (KHII, KHIII), or by using a Drive Form (KHII)). Has not shown any skill in unarmed combat. Could be defenseless if one manages to disarm him (But this weakness is mitigated by the fact that Sora could either summon back his Keyblade to his hand right away, use his Anti-Form (KHII), or using his magic spells to fight (Possibly, Sora could only perform defensive actions to Yozora when he absorbed his Keyblade)). It's to be noted that magical spells do use the magic supply, while moves that are just magical in nature (Such as Ripple Drive and Stun Impact (KHI), Explosion and Magnet Burst (KHII), Magic Flash and Last Charge (KHIII)) don't, and so those can be used indefinitely just like regular physical techniques regardless of if there's enough magical supply or not, Sora's Resurrection takes place within the Final World until he time travels, rendering him vulnerable to those that can trace him to such place

Feats:

Became the Kingdom Key's chosen wielder.
Took on and defeated Sephiroth... twice.
Fought Xemnas along with Donald, Goofy, and The Beast in KH: Final Mix when he only had half a heart (This means that, from a story and power standpoint, he was incomplete when he didn't have Roxas with him, meaning Sora was "half as powerful" at the time of said fight)
Overpowered a giant, solid stone heartless while nerfed as a small lion (Lifting Strength)
Fought and taken several god-like beings such as Genie Jafar, Hades, Sephiroth, Ansem, Xemnas, etc.
Responsible for the destruction of most of the Original Organization XIII.
Along with Riku, defeated Xemnas who had absorbed an incomplete Kingdom Hearts. A complete one being capable of restoring hundreds of worlds to normal.
Contended with and defeated/stalemated the Lingering Will, a being with power and mastery over the Keyblade far above that of Sora and even Terra himself (even though the Lingering Will is a suit of armor that contains Terra's mind within).
Took on an army of 1,000 Heartless by himself and without rest.
Has traveled to many worlds doing nothing but primarily fighting.

Blitz: Sora jumps to the target and slams his Keyblade downwards to it, thrice.

Retaliating Slash: After being knocked into the air from an attack, Sora can go back with this technique to a foe.
Flash Step: Sora quickly dashes to an opponent to attack, the stance in which he does so also allows to block attacks with the Keyblade on his path at the same time.
Aerial Finish: When finishing an aerial combo against a single target, Sora swings to the target multiple times with his Keyblade while it's enhanced by multiple lines of light.
Magnet Burst: When finishing an aerial combo, Sora pulls the foe(s) with a magical magnetical force around himself, then it fires to all directions they are rotating to a burst of magnetic orbs.
Counterguard: If Sora manages to block an attack, he can attack back immediately with an invisible wave of energy that often renders the foe vulnerable.

Sora's clothes can channel the power of his heart and amp his powers and abilities in different ways. The Drive forms also bring his health and magical energy back up to 100%, which can save him in certain critical times.

Note: While Sora in-game needs Donald and/or Goofy (Or other allies depending on the "world") to access any Drive Form bar Limit Form, this is a game mechanic for multiple reasons, among them Sora being able to stay in one during a cutscene with Donald and Goofy still being around, but most notably the first cutscene when they are introduced, Goofy is still around even after Sora uses Valor Form (Which Goofy is needed for per the Game Mechanics themselves).

A Drive Form that gives Sora access to the abilities that he lost during his time in Castle Oblivion, allowing him to access powerful moves like Ars Arcanum and Ragnarok at will, while also no longer being able to use spells, consumes four of Sora's Drive Bars. In addition, Ars Arcanum, Sonic Blade, Strike Raid and Ragnarok refill Sora's health with each successful hit on a foe.

It's to be noted that unlike Drive Forms, Formchanges can be immediatelly switched between even in the middle of a combo, by changing the respective Keychain while resummoning the Keyblade with the desired one. Formchanges are charged in the heat of a battle, and so Sora has to keep up a fight for a while before being able to use each one.

An Ultimate Finish, as the name implies, are the highest move each Formchange can do on their last level, unleashing the full potential of the Keyblade and performing an special move, however, after use, Sora is reverted back to his base form, and the same applies to the Keyblade to its respective Keychain.

Note: Only Second Form, Hyper Hammer, Drill Punch, Highwind and Storm Flag keep the default block Sora holds in his base form, as all other forms either can't even block attacks in the first place (Agile Claws, Twin Yo-Yos, Double Arrowguns, Magic Launcher, Mirage Staff, Blizzard Claws and Blizzard Blades) or have their own omnidirectional blocking option (Guardian Forms, Nano Arms, Frying Pan, Ultimate Form, Rage Form, Light Form, Dark Form and Double Form).

THe higher the level of the spell, the higher the damage output, area of effect and efficiency.
Blizzard/Blizzara/Blizzaga: Sora fires a single large ice shard to an opponent, Wisdom Form turns it into three shards at once, Master Form turns it into five at once, and Final Form turns allows Sora to quickly fire from both Keyblades two multiple times. The higher the level of the spell, the higher the damage output and efficiency.
Thunder/Thundara/Thundaga: Sora summons a single lightning bolt from upwards to a target, Wisdom Form allows Sora to move around while using it, Master Form allows Sora to also quickly summon three consecutively, and Final Form brings even more mobility. The higher the level of the spell, the higher the damage output, area of effect and efficiency.
Magnet/Magnera/Magnega: Sora creates a vortex of magnetic force that draws in his enemies and deals continuous damage in the process. Trapped in a tight group, Sora is free to attack foes who are restrained in this manner. Wisdom Form allows Sora to move while performing this move, Master Form also increases the damage output, and Final Form greatly reduces the duration to it becoming pretty brief, but in exchange the attraction force and damage output is far higher than the others. The higher the level of the spell, the higher the duration and efficiency.
Reflect/Reflera/Reflega: Sora creates a defensive barrier around him that completely blocks incoming attacks. If it successfully blocks an attack, the barrier explodes into bursts of light as it disperses, dealing damage to all foes nearby, in addition, this spell can be used right after the previous wears off (Reflega only), preventing vulnerability if needed. Wisdom Form allows Sora to move around while using it, Master Form allows Sora to use it consecutively indefinitely until he runs of magic, and Final Form instead lets Sora also attack further out of the Keyblades spinning outwards of the barrier.
Cure/Cura/Curaga: Quite similar to the KHI variant, but now it can not only heal Sora or an ally of choice, but multiple allies at once (Including himself) within a certain range. Unlike the other spells, this one isn't affected by Drive Forms directly.

Base:

Wisdom Form:

Master Form:

Esuna: Sora fills himself with healing magic that removes status effects from himself.
Zero Gravity/Zero Gravira/Zero Graviga/Zero Graviza: Sora creates a zero-gravity field that sends enemies drifting in the air where they lose health the longer they remain in it, and may also be confused when Sora takes advantage of their vulnerability to strike them, forcing them to spin far more in the air. The higher the level of the spell, the larger the range and duration of the effect inflicted. Zero Graviza, unlike the others, instead makes a black orb that pulls foes in similarly to Magnega for a noticeable while.
Balloon/Ballonra/Ballonga: Sora summons multiple homing balloons that do water explosions when touched by a foe, the higher the level of the spell, the higher the number of balloons, with Balloonga straight up starting with a large one that then extends into as many as Balloonra after exploding.

Confuse: Sora emits a wave of magic from his Keyblade, those caught in it are confused for a moment, turning into attacking their own allies (If any, otherwise just attacking without aiming properly) instead of Sora.
Poison: Sora fires a homing blast of poison, the foe it lands on is poisoned and thus slowly loses health for a while.
Slow: Sora emits a wave of time magic that slows down foes for a moment.

Stop: Sora emits a wave of time magic around him, those caught in it are time stopped for a while, unlike in other cases, Sora only holds the basic Stop.
Vanish: Sora emits a light from his Keyblade to himself, which then turns him very transparent to the point he is not easy to be seen for a large while.

Unlike in past eras, Sora now is able to use "-za" level spells, which are above the level of "-ga" level spells, however, they aren't as usable. As all spells Sora has access to here are leveled spells, it goes without saying that the higher the level of the spell, the higher the range and damage output unless stated otherwise.

In addition, Sora now is able to use them consecutively indefinitely and can move around (be it on the ground or while flying) without issue.

Fire/Fira/Firaga/Firaza: Shoots a ball of fire.
Thunder/Thundara/Thundaga/Thundaza: Summons lightning bolts right above a target. Thundaza summons multiple lightning pillars that burst into a large electrical blast as an even larger beam of electricity falls from the sky.

Water/Watera/Waterga/Waterza: Covers the user in a wave of water that shields from some projectiles then fires a ball of water that bursts upon impact.
Cure/Cura/Curaga/Curaza: Heals the user and allies. Curaga often heals back to peak, while Curaza only extends range for allies that are too far away otherwise.

Sea Magic: This magic style is available when being underwater, Water spells are unavailable for obvious reasons. Unlike other sorts of magic, this magic is locked to a single level, with the only exception being the Cure family spells, which remain the same.

Proximity-Style Magic: This magic style is available for certain Formchanges that focus on close quarters combat, involving the respective element spinning around the user.

Artillery-Style Magic: This magic style is available for certain Formchanges that focus on ranged combat, involving the firing of the respective element as a homing ball that bursts upon impact.

Dual-Style Magic: This magic style is available for certain Formchanges that focus on ranged combat with dual wielding of weapons, firing homing bullets of the respective element, the higher the level of the spell, the higher the number of bullets per dual shot (2 for base, 4 for "-ra" level spells, 6 for "-ga" level spells and 8 for "-za" level spells).

When in need of extra help in a fight, Sora can call upon the power of friends he made to lend him a hand.

Sora keeps all previous bar Enemy Cards, plus the following:

Air Slide: Sora can dash on the floor while also harming opponents on the way, useful for dodging by traveling farther than what Dodge Roll does, although this move lacks invulnerability, unlike Dodge Roll.
Aerial Dodge: Sora can do a spinning jump on the air that reflects projectiles.
Aerial Recovery: If Sora is sent flying from an opposing attack taken, Sora can cancel momentum with this technique to avoid vulnerability.

Sora keeps all previous bar Aerial Dodge, plus the following:

Slide Roll: A stronger variation of Dodge Roll, which also allows Sora to emit sparkles around himself to harm enemies on his way while also traveling a bit farther.
Air Slide: Unlike the previous variant, Sora dashes on the air while also harming opponents on the way, useful for dodging while on the air. Sora can also go to a wall while performing this technique to perform Flowmotion techniques, in addition, Sora can use Air Slide up to 3 times consecutively.

Sora keeps all previous (Including Aerial Dodge, but not Slide Roll), plus the following:

Doubleflight: Sora can jump in the air.
Aerial Dodge: Unlike the KHII variant, it acts as a variant of Air Slide where Sora quickly dashes forward while spinning. While the traveled distance is lower, this move reflects projectiles.

Nomura agreed. And there's a reason: they want players to be able to experience dynamic form change-like actions even as normal actions here.

"The Lingering Sentiment battle [between Sora and the abandoned Armor of Terra, a hero from Birth by Sleep] featured transforming armor, and the Keyblade itself transforms, and I wanted to recreate that and be able to incorporate that mechanic into Kingdom Hearts III's gameplay. As you train and become a more masterful Keyblade wielder, your style of fighting develops and you are able to transform your Keyblade."

Now standing, the man said a name Sora didn’t expect. “Xe…ha…nort…Is that you? Xeha…nort…Xehanort!” Did this guy know Xehanort? Sora didn’t have any time to worry about that, though, as the man quickly closed the distance between them and attacked. He was strong! Almost impossibly so. Sora was instantly sent flying and hit the ground hard. Wait…Have I…done this before…? But this was no time for contemplation. The man dealt out blow after blow, left and right, driving Sora back. Donald immediately cast a healing spell. Sora managed to regain his composure and struck the armored figure.

In other words, Second Chance and Once More could work from attacks taken by Lingering Will KHI and KHCoM Sora just happen to lack Once More, see Notable Attacks/Techniques -> Passive Abilities for more information
