I don't get it. Why was she replaced by Alyson? Disney doesn't usually do these things. They tend to stick to their own originality by actually keeping their voice actors for their respective roles. Don't get me wrong. I love Alyson Stoner. But she is another character. She's Xion! She's just Xion. And Hayden should be Kairi. Just like in the original adaptions of KH. I was a bit surprised when I knew that Kairi was voiced by Alyson in 2.8 because Kairi is always Hayden just like Sora is always Haley. Get what my drift? Am I making any sense?
Tyene1218 91701 Yes you make sense but it was Hayden's choice. She just didn't have interest in the character anymore. Plus, she's also busy with movies and tv shows now.
i think she didn't have time as she was on heroes, then nashville as soon as that ended. someone asked if she was coming back for kh3 and she said she wasn't asked...otherwise i think she would've, especially now that nashville is over.
she's talking about the the production and how kingdom hearts 2 is being put together by the talents of those who all put heart and soul into making the sequel three years later.
@xxxanimepopxxx I was referring to the north American release. I know the japan release was in 2001. But it wouldn't make sense for her to be saying three years later if she was referring to the Japanese release
i know. in the instruction book, if u go to the characters section, you'll see some of the characters' ages. and in KH2, it says that sora is 15, while in KH1, it says he's 14.
I know KH is her breaktrhough project, and I'm happy to see thatt she agreed to do PART 2, but I'm convinced that it is going to be difficult to make audiences forget her character CLAIRE from the HEROES Tv show
I am so glad she came back for Birth by Sleep.. I was very scared when didn't come back for Days or reCOM. Hopefully Christopher Lee will follow suit with DiZ.
i think that this is so cool!!! hayden she is so optimistic i love her personality in this ha ha "princess, light in the voice hayden plz raise it a few octaves" HA HA
@shurikkaru Actually, KH was made in 2001 (or, at least, RELEASED then) but it takes a while for them to release it in North America, but yeah. (In Japan, they get it first because, duh, they made it XD)
the first time i saw kairi in this game i was like what the is that kairi? because even though its been a year since kh1 she seemed to have really matured and same goes for sora and riku
1.)say the name of the boy/girl u like 2 times 2.)now say the name of your bestfriend 5 times to urself 3.)now post this onto 5 videos and then press f8 and then ur crushes name will APPEAR ON THE SCREEN and this song rocks
Was anyone here able to follow the whole storyline of the game? Because as far as I concern, it's all full of twists and cliffhangers that makes it almost impossible to fully comprehend.
To those of you just finding out about this, I wouldn't be surprised if she didn't voice Kairi in any of the sequels as she didn't do the voice in Re: COM.
Yayy! I'm so happy she's coming back. Although Alyson Stoner actually did a pretty good job. I was shocked. xDD And also Meaghan Martin for Namine was really good. O___O;; I was like: "OH GOD. CAMP ROCKERS FOR KH? Fail Square! Faaail!!" But they were great. XDD
Guys, KH2 takes place a year after KH1. If you don't believe me, take out the little instruction manual in the case and read it. I forgot the page and i lost mine. :(
And yet, he somewhat DID forget her, but remembered because she was part of Kairi. BTW, I lol the way she said that KH2 was three years later. It's one year.
so does namine to in some ways sora and namine could be a couple since in castle oblivion namine was all sora thought about plus sora made a pinky promise at the end to never forget her even if his memories fell apart
yup she plays claire i didn't recognise haydens voice until i finished the game and was one of the very few ppl who could be bothered to watch the credits LOL!!!!
Yeah...Nomura always takes sooooooo long on his games. But they're usually worth the wait. I only wish he's release the KH: Final Mix games in America! T_T
i wouldnt be suprise who knows maybe miley cyrus might be the voice for aqua or of the jonas brother's is the voice of terra (we know that jesse mccartney is still going to voice ven)

She has played Kairi before. Not just Xion
i think she didn't have time as she was on heroes, then nashville as soon as that ended. someone asked if she was coming back for kh3 and she said she wasn't asked...otherwise i think she would've, especially now that nashville is over.
krystal she legit just said on Twitter that no one asked her to play the role, so weird
I think they changed her voice bc they wanted it to sound closer to xions.
Holy moly! I've just realised this is Samantha's (Until Dawn) actress!!
Hayden Pannetiere is very beautiful. :) I love her smile. :) She was the perfect choice for Kairi. :)
Back when Heroes first came out, I was surprised that she voiced Kairi.
she's talking about the the production and how kingdom hearts 2 is being put together by the talents of those who all put heart and soul into making the sequel three years later.
Thank you!
so much for Kairi sounding like a princess
I had no idea about the celebrity voice acting in this game! I might buy it now.
3 years later O-O..i thought it was only one year later.....
I love her interview because she is the only one that dosen't talk about disney in it
shes so gorguz
i hope she does kingdom hearts 3 now that she is becoming more popular and famous with heroes and everything
I love Hayden's eyes.
@angelpikachu777
I believe she was referring to the production time gap between KH1 and KH2, not the games' fictional chronology.
"I want her body"
*SUPER INSANE LOOK*
Gotta love it
@AxelsChakrams8 She's talking about the game itself, it's three years later than the first
woooow apparently i've been under a rock cuz i had no idea she voiced Kairi :O
man I was ten Im so lucky...
I wish I could play all the damn games coming out in the series!!!
It's only 1 year later!
Oh thank you :)
I hope they do the same for kingdom hearts 3 with these interviews
Haha! I love her expression. "I want her body." o_o
Hayden's always so much fun to watch.
@xxxanimepopxxx I was referring to the north American release. I know the japan release was in 2001. But it wouldn't make sense for her to be saying three years later if she was referring to the Japanese release
Wow. You'd think after playing the Kingdom Hearts games and watching all the Heroes episodes that I'd have noticed this by now.
kairi is so awesome
i know. in the instruction book, if u go to the characters section, you'll see some of the characters' ages. and in KH2, it says that sora is 15, while in KH1, it says he's 14.
SHE'S KAIRI! WOW, DIDN'T SEE THAT COMING!
o she plays kairi i like her movie of bring it on it was funny in the getto'd out school XD she's doing a great job as kairi keep it up
I know KH is her breaktrhough project, and I'm happy to see thatt she agreed to do PART 2, but I'm convinced that it is going to be difficult to make audiences forget her character CLAIRE from the HEROES Tv show
YES! I love that girl.
@plusle96 I think she means that it is three years since they voiced in KH1 or something
I had no idea she did it, but then again I never knew anything about her before Heroes.
I am so glad she came back for Birth by Sleep.. I was very scared when didn't come back for Days or reCOM. Hopefully Christopher Lee will follow suit with DiZ.
WWWHHHHAATTT!!!!! this is fucking with my head and im not talking about the one on my shoulder WHHAAOO!
It's one year in Kingdom Hearts, but 3 years in the real world. Our world. That show Heros is cool.
@Gaaraluver227 yeah i knew about alyson stoner but i was oblivious to the fact that she was the main voice :P
i think that this is so cool!!! hayden she is so optimistic i love her personality in this ha ha "princess, light in the voice hayden plz raise it a few octaves" HA HA
great vid
@shurikkaru Actually, KH was made in 2001 (or, at least, RELEASED then) but it takes a while for them to release it in North America, but yeah. (In Japan, they get it first because, duh, they made it XD)
its only been 1 year seriously u_u.. or at least from KH Re:CoM.
the first time i saw kairi in this game i was like what the is that kairi? because even though its been a year since kh1 she seemed to have really matured and same goes for sora and riku
she's more younger then i thought she turned 19 last augest
1.)say the name of the boy/girl u like 2 times
2.)now say the name of your bestfriend 5 times to urself
3.)now post this onto 5 videos and then press f8 and then ur crushes name will
APPEAR ON THE SCREEN
and this song rocks
Was anyone here able to follow the whole storyline of the game? Because as far as I concern, it's all full of twists and cliffhangers that makes it almost impossible to fully comprehend.
To those of you just finding out about this, I wouldn't be surprised if she didn't voice Kairi in any of the sequels as she didn't do the voice in Re: COM.
Save the cheerleader, save the world >3>
i think the time of the dubbing between kh1 and kh2. remember 2002-2006
No that took about 5 or 6 years since kh1 was made in 2001 or 2002 and kh2 came in 2006.
I hate that they didn’t ask her to reprise her role for Kairi.
will she still voice kairi for kingdom hearts 2.8?
Nope, Alyson Stoner filled in
Jonathan Lane no
lol, i know! that was hilarious. shes too cute.
I dont understand why some people hate Kairi? How can you hate Kairi!? I mean...it's hard to hate her, she so...nice!
...3 years later??? o_O?!
haha. i found that random,but cute. i like how she changed the tone of her voice to fit kairi's image.
@ulquiXgrimm Its been three years since they had recorded audio for kh1. Thats what she meant.
@misukiyuki **you get the best of both worlds, chilling out in the light, in the dark we fight** xD or something like that aha!
@deadpisser88 claire from heros her real name is hayden pannetiere
i think she meant it's been 3 years between each game being made. so "new people, new voices, everythings changed..."
Yayy! I'm so happy she's coming back.
Although Alyson Stoner actually did a pretty good job. I was shocked. xDD And also Meaghan Martin for Namine was really good. O___O;; I was like: "OH GOD. CAMP ROCKERS FOR KH? Fail Square! Faaail!!" But they were great. XDD
O.O i didn't know SHE was kairi's voice actor!! i never read credits you see...
Wow....that's all I got to say. WOW!!!
@304ropergirl its was three years between the release of the games...i think thats what she was thinking
I totally asked her to do the voice when i met her in NYC. I even made her flustered! XD And can u say CLOUD 9 when I hugged her?
It does, 358 takes place ever since sora became a heartless in the end of kh1, (a nobody is bron when a person becomes a heartless)!
Guys, KH2 takes place a year after KH1. If you don't believe me, take out the little instruction manual in the case and read it. I forgot the page and i lost mine. :(
she said three years later kh2 is only one year later o.O
And yet, he somewhat DID forget her, but remembered because she was part of Kairi.
BTW, I lol the way she said that KH2 was three years later. It's one year.
*picture pops up*
someone else said she did something in remember the titans?
she wasn't the little girl, was she?
so does namine to in some ways sora and namine could be a couple since in castle oblivion namine was all sora thought about plus sora made a pinky promise at the end to never forget her even if his memories fell apart
@Shaslo It'd be hilarious to see... but I agree with you.
KH2 came out in 2006,, but I'm pretty sure they did the recording in 2005, cause well, she just said 3 yrs.
O.o wow i had no idea Hayden plays kairi...
when ur the owner of the video u can change the date
yup she plays claire i didn't recognise haydens voice until i finished the game and was one of the very few ppl who could be bothered to watch the credits LOL!!!!
lol i never would have guessed she voiced Kairi lol xD
She means that 3 years later cause the first game came out in 2003 and Kh2 got released in 06 so she means three years later in r/l not the game.
yeah thats in the story kingdom hearts 1 was 3 years before 2
I didn't know she's kairi's voice actor.
hahaha! her face after she said "i want her body" is priceless! who doesn't want kairi's body?? lol I LOVE KINGDOM HEARTS
Ah yes, skinny stick figure with big ass feet, the ideal body type for a woman.
UGH, HAYDEN.
IT'S ONLY ONE YEAR LATER. NOT TWO. D:
I can't believe she said that...and she's in the voice cast. Good grief.
"Three years later"? What? Isn't it only a year later?
SuperRocketMetal2 One year from KH1, 1 year from CoM and finally another in Days to KH2. That's the timeline
Lost Souls those games aren't years apart, she probably just misspoke
Yeah...Nomura always takes sooooooo long on his games. But they're usually worth the wait. I only wish he's release the KH: Final Mix games in America! T_T
I hope you don't mean the FF characters but you're right-they need to make a girl character who can be sweet and pretty and kick ass too.
Hmmm.... who is my favourite girl character in kh? A hard question since they all are so cute, but I think the answer is Aqua. :)
haha
"i want her body! o-o"
she said it so blunty :P
omg i didnt know that
ERRR, Did i hear well? THREE years?! wasn't it only ONE?
ya. i cant hear the gameplay
i didn't recognize it was hayden that voiced pannetiere
I LOVE KAIRI...AND SHE'S A 7 PRINCESS
correction: i didn't recognized hayden's voice.
Its not 3 years later -_- its only 1 year.
ryt after she saws "I want her body" She looks at the camera as if she saw a ghost XD her eyes widen and her face...omg that was funny
wow thats so awesome! who woulve thought?! BD
how many charcters in the series does she play
XD
Claire as Namine!
XD
i wouldnt be suprise
who knows maybe miley cyrus might be the voice for aqua or of the jonas brother's is the voice of terra
(we know that jesse mccartney is still going to voice ven)
Holy crap!!! It's Claire!!1!!!1!1!one!!!
trust me, we want.
O.o wtc? did she just say 3 years later?
