Sora's Official Height?

[Eternamente926]

My curiousity, mostly. I've heard speculation, approximation, and estimation. I'm wondering if there is an official number straight from Disney/Square Enix (or Nomura himself), or a character bio that states Sora's height in Kingdom Hearts 2. I know Sora is about twice the height of Donald, just a little bit taller than Goofy, obviously Roxas' exact height, and is shorter than Riku. Sora is also slightly taller than Kairi. Roxas (and thus Sora) come up to Larxene's chest in height as well. So, I'm wondering the numbers lol. So, anyone who knows where to look, cuz I'm honestly out of luck here and I've been searching for a while, please! hehe Thanks

(also, this information would settle a silly arguement between myself and a friend lol... )

Does it really matter?

I would say about five foot nine or ten myself.

 

[mistyElk0]

Well he's about a head taller than Kairi. and my guess is that Kairi is about 5'4. that's around average for girls. Riku is probibly around 5'10 to 6 foot and Sora comes up to his shoulders. So my guess is that Sora is about 5'5 to 5'7...

It's just a guess though.

there's a way to figure out. you just take his head and count how it takes to measure the length of his body... there's another part to that I can't remember what it is right now.

Can't be. He's like at shoulder-height next to Johnny Depp, who's 5'10". But then again... This is a video game, so I don't know how tall Jack Sparrow would be perceived as. My guess has always been around equal to my own height. (5'6") *shrug*

 

[Kai3781]

Wasn't Cloud's official height about 5'7"? If so, that means Sora is probably around 5'4"

 

[Sanchay]

That one actually makes sense.

Whoa... That puts a whole new spin on things... *Walks up to Sora* Shorty. *poiks*

 

[Cyypher100]

yeah that makes alot of sense, plus sora hasnt reached his full mature self, (like riku) dont guys keep growing til about 21? kairi is like alot of japense anime girls, TINY! shes got to be only like 4'9" or 5" look how Axel towered over her!

 

[Oathy]

xD Wow. When I first saw this thread title, the first thing I thought was "...shorter than Riku".

Meh, in comparison to other characters around him, I'd say Sora's probably in the 5'6"-5'7" range. Then again, he IS only fifteen, and if Riku shot up that much going from 15 to 16, there's a good chance Sora will get even taller.

However, one weird thing I noticed--Cloud is 5'7" according to his character bio in FF7, but Squall (Leon) is supposed to be only 5'8" and yet looks only a little taller than Cloud and quite a bit taller than Sora. If you watch the scene in the bailey, he appears to be at least a head taller than Sora.

I think for now, Sora just has some growing to do. xD

>_> But if he IS in the 5'6"-5'7" range, I'm as tall as him. Good lord.

i really dont get the height in KH series...in KH1 Sora was a midget...and in KH2 (the beginning atleast) sora looks so much taller, then u get to hollow bastion with leon and cid and he still looks short...sora is 15 and what Kai said about cloud makes him seem 5'4. i mean im 14 and im 5'11 so i think they need to change some heights with KH3 (i know thats not the next new game thats being worked on, im just saying in the future)

you have a point there.. my brother was 5'10 when he was 13 "he's 18 an 6'2 now" and my cousin Timmy is only 5'7 and he's 23. But different people grow differently... Sora could just could be unforcanant "sp" like my cousin.

 

[Fuse]

If Sora is that short =o .....

Wow.
I'm 15 and 5'10 =/
I guess I'm just weird

I always thought that Sora would be about the same height as me since his age in his bio is 15 =D

 

[Sanchay]

I wouldn't say "worked up"... It's just trivial knowledge. You know, random stuff that no one really should give a crap about but do in case they are asked that question at gunpoint. Useful stuff to have in that sort of situation...

Gunman: "What's Sora's official height in KH2?"
Victim: "I don't know!" T_T

See how useful it is?

 

[mistyElk0]

Yeah it's just for fun and honestly I like hearing peoples oppions.

and like Sanchay said.. You never know when the information might be useful.

 

[ROXAS_32]

i think sora is about 5'7

 

[Sanchay]

Haha... I expounded on my comment about Sora being short and came up with this. See, it can be useful! XD

 

[Priss Princess Peckerpunch]

I have always considered him to be at least 5'5. But considering how tall he is compared to, say Riku then I guess He would be somewhere between 5'5 and 5'7. No bigger than 5'7 though. But thats just what I think...

 

[Eternamente926]

Gunman: "What's Sora's official height in KH2?"
Victim: "I don't know!" T_T

*laughs like crazy*

Okay, okay, I did have another reason aside from just the little arguement between a friend and I. I cosplay as Sora on occasion, and I'm 5'8" ... was more or less curious because I hear all sorts of numbers about his height. My favourite number is 5'6" because it still eludes that he's somewhat short, but I'm still passable as him =p

Plus, I'm just really curious... I've yet to see a written-in-stone number from the creators. The only thing we have to go by is approximation... although I did find the information that Goofy is "seven heads tall" ... though I have no idea what that converts to in numbers XD But I do know Sora is slightly taller than Goofy... so...

And it is a random silly topic to discuss.

btw drawing you posted, Sanchay... gold XD

 

[Dogenzaka]

I'd say 5'10"
If not, I don't see why people call him tall =/

If he was 5'10" he'd come up to my eyebrow or so.

 

[Tyler Durden]

if he was five ten then he'd be the exact same as my height.

 

[The Conquerer]

There is no exact height for them and if Cloud was really 5 foot 7 in Kingdom Hearts, Sora would be like 3 foot 2.
