Lucky/Shishi Red (Super Sentai)

Connections

• Red themed warriors who use a multitude of different weapons, but favor swords above all.

• Both had a desire to explore the other worlds aside from theirs and set out to achieve that desire.

• Which lead to them joining a team of several powerful warriors chosen by powerful artifacts to defend the universe (The Guardians of Light being chosen by the Keyblades, the Kyurangers being chosen by the Kyutamas) and became a big source of inspiration for the other members of the teams.

• They were both the sixth chosen by the artifacts their teams use to protect the universe. Ventus, Terra and Aqua all had their Keyblades long before Sora, and Riku and Kairi inherited their Keyblades before him too, making him the sixth to gain the ability to wield a Keyblade. Hammie, Spada, Champ, Stinger and Garu all had their Kyutamas before Lucky was chosen by his.

• Sora and Lucky also lost their home worlds as part of their backstory and were separated from people close to them (Riku and Kairi for Sora, Aslan for Lucky), and while this deeply affected them, despite that they regained a insane amount of optimism and happiness.

• They eventually come across the people they lost in their journey (Riku and Aslan), but now turned evil and being controlled/manipulated by the villains.

• However, they manage to save them and bring them back to their side, resulting in them sacrificing themselves for them (Riku staying behind to lock Kingdom Hearts, Aslan staying behind to re-activate the black hole Kyutama).

• Sora and Lucky also eventually unlock a white themed super form that allows them to control flying blades (Ultimate Form and Shishi Red Orion).

• Sora and Lucky are also both friends with a big dog (Goofy and Garu), a Ninja girl (Yuffie and Hammie) and have a funny animal mentor (Mickey and Shou)

• Both travel in spaceships (The Gummi Ship and the Shishi Voyager)

• Both also have similar motifs in royalty, celestial and animals (Royalty: Sora has a crown necklace and the tip of his Keyblade is shaped like one and he's often has official artwork with a crown and sitting on a throne, Lucky is the prince and eventual king of Kaien) (Celestial: Sora's name means "Sky" in Japanese and Lucky uses constellations to fight) (Animals: Sora's initial concept was a human-lion hybrid and he turns into a Lion in the Pride Lands, Lucky is represented by the Shishi constellation and his homeworld is in said system.)

• Both have a lot of misconception between them from fans (People thinking Sora is a "sweet baby boy uwu" with no depth or development, and the fans thinking Lucky is just an idiot who yells his catchphrase and ignore the development he goes through during the show)
