History Manga / KingdomHeartsChainOfMemories

* ShoutOut: Sora mentions the Dokodemo Door from ''Anime/{{Doraemon}}'' when the heroes step through a door in Castle Oblivion, only to wind up in Traverse Town.

* AdaptedOut: All of the Disney worlds from the game are cut out except for [[Disney/{{Aladdin}} Agrabah]].

* LighterAndSofter: Then the original game, with only Axel's machinations being played completely seriously.

The LighterAndSofter manga adaption to ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsChainOfMemories''. Contains even more humor than the manga adaption for the first game.

* VillainsOutShopping: The Organization XIII members are shown doing incredibly mundane things like reading, doing puzzles, etc. Zexion, Vexen, and Lexaeus even have a chores chart.

* AdaptationHeroism: While [[{{Jerkass}} Sora]] isn't a VillainProtagonist, he cruelly abandons Donald and Goofy to explore the twelfth floor on his own, and tells Jiminy to shut up. Here, he's not as cruel to them, and tells Jiminy that [[spoiler:finding Naminé]] is his problem, not theirs. The worst he does is call them "pigheads" for a VisualPun.

* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler: Those who've played the game would already know [[DeepSleep what happens]] to Sora and his friends at the end.]]

* BrickJoke: Remember the turban Sora was wearing in one of the "front cover" pages in the [[Manga/KingdomHeartsI first manga]]? He wears another one while impersonating a genie in [[Disney/{{Aladdin}} Agrabah]].

* OhNoNotAgain: Marluxia tells the heroes "To find is to lose, and to lose is to find." He repeats himself when they weren't paying attention. When he says it a third time, they comment that he's either a weirdo or just likes to hear himself talk, which he denies. After he leaves them, he says the phrase a forth time, then realizes what he just did and complains.

* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler: Those who've played the game would already know [[DeepSleep what happens]] to Sora at the end.]]

* CrucifiedHeroShot: Marluxia uses his plants to hold Namine this way in the climax.

* VillainsOutShopping: The Organization XIII members are shown doing incredibly mundane things like reading, doing puzzles, playing Twister, etc.

* EpicFail: The fight against Axel is a complete farce, including Sora, Donald, and Goofy attempting a Trinity Limit, only to crash into a wall.

* SparedByTheAdaptation: [[spoiler:Riku Replica survives the events of the story and leaves Castle Oblivion with some Vexen Replicas to find their own future.]]

The manga was originally released in two volumes, and translated into English by Creator/{{Tokyopop}}. In 2013, Creator/YenPress retranslated the manga and released it in one volume.

* [[spoiler: BackFromTheDead: Riku Replica]]
