[@diekritischestimme]

There were also other secret bosses which were almost impossible to find, if you did not know what you were doing. Like getting into one of these twisters in the desert, which you normally avoid getting into, because it sends you back to the beginning of the dungeon...

A personal favorite of mine was getting to fight Justine and Caroline in Persona 5. Once you’re in New Game+ it isn’t particularly hidden, but you do have to be on a second run to even be available. Everything about that fight was flawless in my opinion. It was absolutely, savagely difficult, “Rivers In the Desert” fit so well for the music, it had this charm of getting to fight these characters you’ve come to love, and if you messed up, they break out an All-Out Attack that’s supposed to be YOUR thing and takes you completely off guard. Just a brilliant battle.

Final Fantasy 12 had some good ones too. Yiazmat and Omega MkII after him. I spent weeks grinding in preparation and the yiazmat fight literally took 8 hours straight of play to grind his 250 million hp down to 0. Omega MKII wasn't too bad but it would one shot a max level characters frequently. Final Fantasy XII is so under rated I feel. There was so much to do and most of it was hidden for you to discover and figure out on your own. It was so exciting when you stumbled across a rare game, monster, boss, or whole new area you didn't know existed and the quest lines were quite extensive. A grand adventure for all time.

My favorite hidden/optional Video Game Boss is "Darkeater Midir" from Dark Souls 3. You have to hopp off an elevator in the middle of the ride, find an illusory wall and drop down a hole behind an altar to get to him. In my opinion he is the hardest boss in Dark Souls 3 and the best dragon fight in all of the souls games. And as a bonus: If you defeat him you unlock the ability to become a Dark Souls Boss yourself for other players to defeat. A cool new feature they added in the dlc.

A few noteworthy secret bosses I can think of would be Mephorash and Melaiduma from Ys VIII. The first can be found in the Silent Tower dungeon, which can *only* be unlocked if you find and rescue every castaway in the game. Meanwhile, the other is found at the very end of the game's *extremely long* postgame dungeon, the Adol's Era version of the Sanctuary Crypt, which itself features rematches against earlier bosses in addition to stronger variants of regular enemies. Both fights will take a lot of time to complete due to various factors, including the boatloads of health each boss has and the hard-to-dodge attacks that they have, but trust me... as someone who fought and defeated both of those bosses... it's worth it.

Crossbreed Priscilla should've been there in my opinion. She might not be an insanely hard boss, but her lore, origins and the way she was hidden away is just fantastic. Her being hidden inside a painted world that you can only find and access IF you have the peculiar doll which is hidden in what is probably the last place anyone would think about along with her title of "Merciful Goddess, Mother of the Forlorn who have no place to call their home" should be enough to tell you why I really think she needs to be included in that list (or maybe the next one). The lore surrounding her is freaking amazing.

When I finally beat the Demon of Hatred, it was an entirely split second thing. I FINALLY got him down to just a couple hits, and, out of frustration, I do that thing you ought not do and rush in to chaotically take down that last bit of life, right as I'm going in for the kill, he jams his hand in the ground. If the charge managed to get off before I closed in on those last 2-3 hits, I'm dead, start over...but I just got it off and dropped it. So satisfying.

[@ramensoup43]

I would like it if Jules would add in the optional boss fights "Millionaire's Bane" "Reverent" and "O.D" from Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night whenever the Comment Edition of this video happens. "Millionaire's Bane" is literally a possessed slot machine who attacks not only by trying to crush you but by spinning the reels and attacking according to the results of the spin. "Reverent" is an undead Simon Belmont, using a flame whip, boomerang, dagger, and throwing ax. and "O.D." is literally Alucard, voiced by the original voice actor from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Robert Belgrade. All of these bosses are all references to the death of the Castlevania series, as Konami abandoned making video games and opted to go into the slot machine business using what remains of their IP.

[@DFloyd84]

The kicker with the Flemeth battle is that even if you win, you haven't killed her. She gets Hawke, the protagonist of Dragon Age II, to take an amulet containing part of her essence during the prologue. The ritual done with it allows Flemeth to respawn outside Ferelden. Since the ritual happens after the events of Origins, Morrigan, the Grey Warden, and their allies are all going about their business thinking she's dead while she's still running around plotting and scheming.

[@jled787]

Which turns out, Flemeth might nit be as bad as we thought... Or she might be worse. She might not be a God herself, but the way she speaks of them and that she gave the idea to Morrigan to bind a god's soul to a living vessel makes me think that she has witnessed bith the rise and fall of these so called gods.

The gear combinations it took to sustain a fight with either were just crazy hard to level up unless u wanted to grind for literally longer than it takes to beat the the game 3 times doing every possible side quest

[@stanford-nf4jk]

Akuma was mentioned (SSF II Turbo), but Q from Street Fighter III 3rd Strike is a pretty cool side character to fight against.

Man, Jules is a beast. Love this guy

[@antbaird1485]

Love this channel. Lovee these lists!! Jules = BEAST

[@Cruxis1712]

idk I think the secret boss in Indivisible was pretty neat but also tough as it goes through 9 different life bars and gets bigger and strong each time you take down a life bar

[@lonewolffang]

Didnt know about secret boss in Illusion of Gaia. Definitely have to go back and try it.

[@666sparton666]

This is the 3rd one of these hard boss videos ive watched, and STILL no mention of Sephiroth from Kingdom Hearts, an optional secret boss i have never been able to beat

[@austinstone478]

Thank you for mentioning illusion of Gaia. I absolutely love that game and no one's ever heard of it....

[@StuartHayden]

The fact Ultima Weapon from VIII was mentioned over Ozma in IX who is a boss you literally had to a look all over the world for hints to find his location and then go to HEAVEN to fight him is kinda wild to me.

[@gameragersboysofcr1624]

From this one's understanding,the one called demon of hatred from Sekiro, is a necessary boss. Not hidden. Meaning you must fight it to progress at all. Having not played past the flaming bull/raging Bull, this one could be mistaken. Though it does seem as not a hidden boss

The Ancient Dragon from Dark Souls 2: You don't need to go there, but you do. You don't need to aggro him, but you do. You don't want to die repeatedly until you finaly kill him, but you do. Same goes for Darkeater Midir in DS3, only without the aggro part. However, this time you actually have to go look for it and then say "ummm... now why did I just do that in the first place...? Oh right, Dark Souls, gotcha!"

Golden Sun had some amazing secret bosses. Very underappreciated

[@digidv85]

I adored Illusion of Gaia back in the day on SNES. It was annoying though to track down all fifty gems since it’s so easy to pass them by, plus without online tutorials, I had to contact the Nintendo help line for certain ones. Bear in mind you don’t have access to the whole map at all times. Certain areas you can never return to once you leave. I imagine nobody found them all without a guide.

[@civilwildman]

#8 I definitely found & beat. Took me one or two tries. I just wish the Eden summon you get from it was just as powerful but NOT SO FREAKIN' LENGTHY!!!

[@civilwildman]

#4 I also got. Mopped the floor with her. Seriously, if you can kill the High Dragon elsewhere in the game, she's a pushover.

[@jamesianhutchison1165]

Emil in Neir Automata. Some work intensive prerequisites and the fight itself is insane. Especially on hard without the lock-on function.

[@alexcurtis6180]

How about Dullahan from Golden Sun: The Lost Age? You have to find all the elemental Djinn across both games to even enter the dungeon he's in

[@Fiach0Connor]

Alex Curtis I only clicked on the video on the off-chance that Dullahan would be mentioned. One of my favourite bosses in any game.

[@roiitzkovich4545]

Yozora from KH3 should be here. Sure, you don't "search" for him, but you need to defeat many other superbosses to reach him.

[@Brendan1259]

Easy way to kill Flemith, use your strongest cold spells and cold arrows, also use mass healing spells as well
