Kingdom Hearts/Ships

= Axelsa = 

Axelsa is the het ship between Axel and Elsa from the Kingdom Hearts fandom.

Fanon
This crossover ship started long before Kingdom Hearts III was released, and revealed that Frozen has been added to the ever growing KH universe. That is why Axelsa is considered a KH ship as well as a cross ship. Most of the ship's support comes those who feel drawn to "Fire x Ice" couples. Lea's Axel persona is mostly featured in the ship, even though some have argued that Lea and Axel have been shown to be the same person than two separate people. The Frozen II sequel and Kingdom Hearts IV being confirmed has given some AxElsa fans hope that the KH media might have the two meet in canon. With Elsa being confirmed to be one of the new Seven Hearts and with Lea being one of the Guardians of Light. That is why some of the most resent fanart on the ship has Lea in his casual KH3 clothes and Elsa in one of her Frozen 2 outfits.

= Clora = 

Clora is the slash ship between Cloud Strife and Sora from the Kingdom Hearts fandom.

Fanon
Clora is one of the rarer KH ships, between an original KH character and one of the series' first Final Fantasy cameo characters. Most of the "KH x Cameo character" ships that Sora has been apart of mostly have him being shipped with a Disney character than a FF one. Even though people prefer to ship Kingdom Hearts characters with each other than with any of the cameo characters, that the KH ones find themselves befriending.

Although the slash ship mostly focuses on Cloud's KH counterpart, as that is the version of him that meets Sora in canon, there have been those who have Sora cross paths with Cloud's Final Fantasy self. After Sora got added to the Super Smash Bros. series, and with Cloud being part of it for a few years before him, it got fans of the two Square Enix owned characters to make references to it. By focusing on their SSB counterparts.

Those who think that Cloud is much older than Sora, however, prefer to ship them as friends. Along with depicting Cloud as an older brother figure to Sora. Both Sora and Cloud having spikey style hair had even got a few people to portray Cloud as Sora's father, since Aerith's brown hair and the popularity of Clerith helps that group to place Aerith as Sora's mother; for when CloTi isn't used to have Tifa as the mother. While Roxas having blond spikey hair like Cloud has him serve as Sora's brother and Cloud's other son of this KH/FF family.

JoshRiku is the slash ship between Joshua Kiryu and Riku from the Kingdom Hearts fandom.

Fandom
= RiElsa = 

RiElsa is the het ship between Riku and Elsa from the Kingdom Hearts fandom.

Fanon
Much like Axelsa, the ship between Riku x Elsa began long before Frozen was added to the Kingdom Hearts universe, through KHIII. That is why RiElsa is somewhere between a KH ship and a crossover ship. The only other female Disney character that Riku has been shipped with so far was Maleficent, but the age gap between them has people ship them as friends. That is what makes RiElsa unique among Riku het ships, since his friend Sora is mostly the one to be shipped with the Disney characters that have appeared in the franchise.

Those who wanted Riku to visit the KH world of Frozen, have centred around the same common idea that is mostly based on Dream Drop Distance. By having Riku be part of Elsa's story after she ran away from Arendelle, while Sora joins Anna in her journey to find Elsa. Seeing Elsa cut herself off from those she wants to protect and the darkness coming from her fear, Riku saw himself in her and wants to ensure that Elsa doesn't make the same mistakes he had made. Along with wanting to ensure that she doesn't fall into the darkness, like his enemies would want her to. Even though this didn't happen in the official KH3 game, some fans had liked the way that Sora had paralleled Elsa with Riku.

= Rikucent = 

Rikucent is the friend ship between Riku and Maleficent from the Kingdom Hearts fandom.

Quotes
"Silly Boy. You're like a son to me. I only want you to be happy."

- Maleficent to Riku

Fanon
The large age gap between Riku and Maleficent is the main reason people would rather ship them as friends than lovers. Maleficent telling Riku that saw him as a son in order to keep him loyal to her, however, had inspired another group to ship them as mother and son.

Fandom
= Sorabel = 

Sorabel is the het ship between Sora and Mirabel Madrigal from the Kingdom Hearts and Encanto fandoms.

Fanon
Like with Sorapunzel, before KHIII got Tangled to be added to the Kingdom Hearts universe, the popularity of Mirabel and her Disney film had got a few KH fans to feature her with Sora. One group has Sora and Mirabel as friends, while the second group have them becoming lovers. Since Sora has been shipped with some of the Disney characters he has encountered or simply want him to meet in future games. Tangled, Frozen and Big Hero 6 being part of the KH3 plot has given some KH fans hope that Encanto may appear in one of the next KH games, with KHIV being confirmed.

= Tyaqua = 

Tyaqua is the het ship between Aqua and Tylor Tuskmon from the Kingdom Hearts and Monsters, Inc. fandoms.

Canon
Since the two characters are from different medias, they have never met on canon. Even though there is a KH version of the Monsters, Inc. universe, Tylor wasn't shown to be part of it.

Fanon
Although the Monsters, Inc universe was added as one of the many worlds within the Kingdom Hearts universe, Tyaqua is still viewed as a crossover ship. With Tylor being part of the Monsters at Work TV series than the Pixar film that began the franchise, and was referenced in KHIII. With there being very little Tylor related pairings, it gave fans of the Monsters at Work protagonist to create ships to feature him in.

The ship was introduced by user thaliasonata, whom she also created Sullieta on DeviantArt, some people supporting this ship mostly on DeviantArt. The creator has even made a fankid between the couple, turning her into thaliasonata's favorite OC.
