Comment on Kairi beating Sora by Mikeinel
According to WHO exactly? Because the only sources about Sora's potential origins I could find was that Disney wanted Donald Duck as the protagonist, while Square wanted Mickey Mouse (which I find ironic and hilarious), and Sora could've had a tail.
What you're saying doesn't sound like Square to me.
......Sora has a tail.
....As a lion cub in the Pridelands. XD

Hehe, I see what you did there. 
But even still, my theory about the tail issue was that, after drawing Sora's original design, Square worried they'd be ripping off Dragon Ball with their original premise for a tailed protagonist. I guess they decided to go with the traditional "spikey-haired RPG protagonist" that Square had become accustomed to (and become rather infamous for).
