* ItSeemedTrivial: From the minute Xehanort arrives on Radiant Garden in chapter 4, Kaname, able to sense his darkness and noticing that Kairi is terrified of him, along with Xehanort's StalkerWithACrush behavior toward Rimi, is naturally suspicious of him, but as he doesn't know what to make of it, he doesn't say a word about it to Ansem the Wise until after Ansem reveals that Xehanort has been conducting experiments with Heartless behind his back and writing reports under Ansem's name; he admits that he most likely should have said something before them, but by that point, it's too late.

* InTheBlood: Several characters in Radiant Garden believe that bloodlines carry traits such as cruelty. The [[TheRevolutionWillNotBeCivilized Insurgos]] were determined to wipe out the royal family of Radiant Garden because they believed that somewhere along the line, Ansem's descendants would become just as cruel and despotic as his [[GodSaveUsFromTheQueen tyrannical parents]]. On the flip side, which proves that the Insurgos are NotSoDifferent from said parents, Ansem's {{Jerkass}} mother Hanako lambasted Ansem for allowing Rimi, his niece [[spoiler: and Kairi's birth mother]], for allowing her to become engaged to Kaname, explicitly stating that Kaname should be locked up [[SinsOfOurFathers simply for being the son of an Insurgo]]. As a whole, it's largely subverted, as it's repeatedly shown that Kaname and Ansem are ''nothing'' like their parents.

Added DiffLines:
* SinsOfOurFathers: In the fics set prior to the fall of Radiant Garden, it's established that the Insurgos believe that bloodlines carry certain traits; Ansem's parents were tyrants who saw everyone outside royalty as beneath them, and thus, they're obsessed with bringing down Ansem's rule because they believe that his parents' cruelty is InTheBlood. In ''Radiant'', showing that she's NotSoDifferent from the Insurgos, Ansem's mother, Hanako, reveals she has the same beliefs, outright telling Ansem and Rimi that Kaname should be imprisoned simply for being the son of one of the Insurgos despite the fact that Kaname ''saved'' them from his father.

'''''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/8814003/1/Kingdom-Hearts-3-Final-Stand Kingdom Hearts 3: Final Stand]]''''' is a ''Franchise/KingdomHearts'' FanFic written by [[https://www.fanfiction.net/u/4427898/Kristen-Verne Kristen Verne]].
As the title suggests, the fic is a hypothetical version of ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsIII'', set nine months after the events of ''VideoGame/KingdomHearts3DDreamDropDistance''. Sora and the gang begin preparations for the final battle with Master Xehanort and his cohorts.
The author has also written other stories set in the same universe: the Training Series, consisting of ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/9047146/1/Maybe-You-Can-Hire Maybe You Can Hire]]'', ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/9510068/1/A-Sacrifice-and-A-Savior A Sacrifice and A Savior]]'', and ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/9887553/1/Treadstone-Black-Briar-and-now-Soul-String Treadstone, Black Briar, and now Soul String]]'', which chronicles what occurred during the nine months between ''Dream Drop Distance'' and ''Final Stand'', and ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10178784/1/Their-Lives-Before Their Lives Before]]'', which chronicles some of the backstories and childhoods of Sora, Riku, Kairi, Terra, Ven, Aqua, and Lea.
'''Note''': This article assumes that you have played all ''Kingdom Hearts'' games up to at least ''Dream Drop Distance''; therefore, all spoilers regarding the games will be unmarked. YouHaveBeenWarned.
!!''Kingdom Hearts 3: Final Stand'' contains examples of the following tropes:
----
* ActionGirl: Kairi has developed into one by the time of the fic. Case in point: in chapter 14, when one of Xehanort's henchmen (revealed several chapters later to be the [[spoiler:Riku Replica]]) tries to nab her, she nonchalantly breaks free of his grip and flings him off of a cliff.
* AncestralWeapon: Dawn's Might, a katana that is a family heirloom from [[spoiler: Kairi's birth mother Rimi's side of the family]]. It is traditionally handed down to the oldest son when he finds the woman he loves or to the man who loves the eldest daughter when he meets the father's approval. In chapter 30, [[spoiler:the ghost of Kairi's birth father Kaname]] gives the blade to [[spoiler:Sora]].
* BackFromTheDead: Master Xehanort has revived several characters, such as [[spoiler: Vanitas, the Riku Replica, and Master Eraqus]], to serve as his {{Soul Jar}}s.
* BladeBelowTheShoulder[=/=]HiddenWeapons: In chapter 18, [[spoiler: Kairi]] is revealed to keep a hidden knife up her sleeve in the event that her hands should be bound.
* BodyHorror: In Halloween Town, Ven takes the form of a decaying zombie; several of his body parts tend to fall off at random.
* BorrowedCatchphrase: In chapter 36, Kairi uses Lea's own CatchPhrase, "Got it memorized?", against him.
* ContinuityNod:
** Sora's taking Ven's heart into his body, as well as Aqua's crafting Castle Oblivion, during the events of ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsBirthBySleep'' are referenced in the first and second chapters.
** In chapter 14, Aqua recalls having first met Sora, Riku, and Kairi when they were little kids, also in ''Birth by Sleep''. During the conversation, Sora also recalls having seen her back then, as well as in the [[VideoGame/KingdomHearts3DDreamDropDistance Realm of Sleep]].
* CrazyPrepared: As revealed in chapter 18, [[spoiler: Kairi]] keeps a hidden blade up her sleeve in the event she's captured and tied up.
* DealWithTheDevil: In chapter 27, Sora is fully prepared to make one with Xehanort by [[spoiler: [[TakeMeInstead offering himself up in exchange for Eraqus]]]], but Aqua refuses to let him.
* IfYouKillHimYouWillBeJustLikeHim: In chapter 32, after defeating [[spoiler: Vanitas]], Terra remarks that he most likely ''should'' just kill him because of all the pain he's caused, but won't do so because "that would make [him] like Xehanort."
