That annoys me, especially since Kairi leaves of her own volition in II AND finds Riku on her own. And Kairi's I plot is given to Riku in part II. To call KH sexist annoys the hell out of me.

idk, I have to agree with ozaline - I like KH, both of them, but the girls did /not/ stand out to me as having a lot of agency or personality. I think Namine had way more than Kairi, for example, but even her point was more to help Sora than do much on her own or for herself.

You kinda have to take the first game on it's own merits since the second did not exist when it came out.

And a game can have a problematic element and still be quite good over all, and there's a lot wrong with the Princesses of Heart, as a thematic element.

Riku's story in II is also different, the needed to be found but he wasn't captured and used as an object in the same way.

Don't get me wrong, I love Kingdom Hearts and I'm not saying it's like "raaargh the most sexist thing ever," just there are a few things here and there that aren't quite so good, and of them happens to be a major focus of the first game.
