Donald using Curaga on Sora after Larxene attacks him.

Cure (ケアル Kearu?), Cura (ケアルラ Kearura?, lit. "Curera"), and Curaga (ケアルガ Kearuga?, lit. "Curega") magic are spells that appear in Kingdom Hearts, Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, Kingdom Hearts II, Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, Kingdom Hearts coded, and Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance. Cure magic makes the target recover an amount of lost HP.

There are items, such as potions, hi-potions, elixirs etc., that recovers health but they must be stocked and replaced so cure is recommended to be used instead of items as much as possible.

Mechanics[]

Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep[]

Cure Magic returns in Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep. The effects are similar to the first Kingdom Hearts in that they only heal the caster. Cure is a flash of green light with two rotating balls of light above the caster. Cura is a burst of colorful petals and leaves. Curaga creates a giant orange flower over the caster as petals and green light swirl around the caster.

In this game, there are also Group Cure friendship commands. They have the same effect as their singular counterparts, but heal allies in a radius.

Kingdom Hearts[]

In Kingdom Hearts, Cure restores a little HP to one character; Cura restores a lot of HP to one character; Curaga restores a massive amount of HP to one character. It costs 1 MP bar to use. Cure infuses the caster with greenish light and three leaves appear above them and float down. Cura causes two rings of clovers to rotate above the casters head and then infuses the caster with them. Curaga creates four large, yellow, bell shaped flowers to appear over the caster which showers them with golden magic. Only Sora and Donald can cast Cure. However, Tarzan and Ariel have abilities that resemble Cure. Summoning Tinker Bell also has a Cure effect.

Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories[]

Cure (card)

In Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, there is a Cure Magic card that can be used in a few different Sleights.

Other characters have connections to the Cure spell. Marluxia, Number XI of Organization XIII, wields the element of flower, which appears to be the inverse of the Cure spell, as it induces a gradual death as opposed to healing, evidenced by his boss fights. Tinker Bell, in contrast, summons cards with a similar effect of Cure magic to gradually heal Sora when summoned.

Donald uses Curaga on Sora after he is attacked by Larxene.

Kingdom Hearts II[]

In Kingdom Hearts II, Cure magic is much more powerful and nearly always fully heals its target as well as allies within the proximity of the deployment. Cure magic further gains an increasingly large area of effect as the spell's level increases; however it also consumes all of the user's MP in one casting. Cure creates a burst of leaves above the caster and two sprouts of water drops descend in a spiral around the caster and any allies in range. Cura causes vines and clovers to swirl around and up anyone in range. Curaga creates three yellow flowers above the caster that showers the caster in petals as well as a flurry of petals all around them, while any allies in range are surrounded in petals and circled by a vine covered in sprouts.

Curaga also appears in the story; During the Heartless invasion of Hollow Bastion, Aerith is shown using Curaga off-screen to heal an exhausted Yuffie.

Characters who cast Cure magic in Kingdom Hearts II:

Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days[]

In Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Cure heals about 20%-40% of damage that up to the level of this magic and Magic stat of the caster. Usually, somewhat of 30% of your HP. Cura has a Regen effect, where the caster of the spell gains a bit of life over time. Curaga creates a circle that rapidly heals the user and allies as long as they stay inside it. Cure creates a burst of leaves above the caster. Cura casts a circle of clovers and leaves around the caster. Curaga heals the user on cast for a small amount, and creates a large cluster of yellow, bell-shaped flowers above the caster, and it then creates a glowing, green circle with flower petals swirling in it that heals over time to all allies inside of it. In this game, thanks to Magic Level Panels, each spell is granted different properties as they level up.

  • Cure: With each level, the user is granted invisibility frame on cast, the amount of time than the user is immune to damage is increased per level, at Level 5 however, the user straight-up blocks all incoming damage.
  • Cura: With each level, the regeneration speed, and heal power is increased with each level, at Level 5, the number of heals the Regen will grant the user per cast is increased from 8 to 12 heals.
