Only after playing Birth by Sleep I realized that I felt really, really sad facing Terra's Lingering Will. The way he knelt will always be iconic to me.

[@XxLew]

Iwano Morgan BBS is definitely my favourite story from the series. Felt really bad for the way Terra was always getting manipulated. Really reminded me of Anikan from starwars before he becomes Darth Vader

[@shyanmarie4405]

He was honored to fight such a strong opponent. Little did he know Ventus was a part of him (Sora) by this time. He thought Sora was Riku, the child he passed the keyblade down to many years prior. Lingering Will is Terra's soul trapped inside of his Keyblade Armor. He can only speak with metallic scraping noises as heard in the clip. He has been wandering the wasteland for over a decade at this point - alone, with only his thoughts and guilt to keep him company. Definitely one of the saddest stories KH had to offer.

Ironically, I'm new to the series , and I've beaten every modern fromsoft game from Demon Souls to Elden ring, and I gotta say, no fight in those games ever pressed me as hard as this, Sephiroth , or Marlucia .

Jade Lowe Can you please explain why he is so hard. I beat him easily. but, with Sephiroth I had a tougher time because of his insta-kill combos. that doesn’t happen with Lingering Will. So, with my experience on proud mode I do not understand.

Y'know, it would've been nice if I could use Lingering Will's current moveset when I was fighting Terranort in Birth by Sleep. But of course not. This is a Kingdom Hearts game, where there's no overpowered protagonist-

[@freshcrystalmangos]

Lingering Will was absolutely one of the hardest fights I have encountered in my life and it feels so damn good when you finally beat him.

[@TheJayrod23]

For those who haven't played this game I'm going to put my best effort as to why this fight is difficult 1. Unlike the fight with sephiroth this guy starts with a different attack every single time you try to rematch him so don't think that the fight will be the same every time you try to fight him. 2. Even on the easier difficulties this guy is still hard. Trust me as someone who has played on standard mode I am not making this up. 3. This guy hits like a truck and will try to attack you frequently so your best bet is to have a keyblade and some abilities that replenishes your MP faster than usual and equip those defender abilities that you may have. 4. If you don't grind for experience and items to your limits don't even attempt fighting this guy unless you want to get your rear end served to you on a platter. 5. Donald and Goofy are USELESS in this fight since they get knocked out every 30 seconds so honestly don't waste your time giving them any equipment. 6. This is on of those fights where you are going to die a lot because you do have to know how he is going to attack and how to dodge them if you want to survive. However there is a pattern this guy gets locked into where he will use that bow and arrow attack until you get his health down to where he will start to use his desperation move on you(At that point he'll just spam the desperation move). On top of that there is a method of defeating this guy that involves using the Fenrir plus the negative combo abilities to constantly beat this guy. Just look up "How to utterly destroy the lingering will and it should come up. Overall this is a very difficult fight but it isn't impossible.

how is that even possible?? is critical mode easier or smt?

[@D2FFDK]

It's very possible. Many of us have played KH2 original so many times that we went straight for the crit experience in the remix versions. When the whole game's difficulty is this high you learn to play far more strategically and learn to be more reactive (well timed guards, reflect etc.). Lingering Will was a lot of trial and error for me on crit but very possible even if it's your first experience of him. You just apply all that crit mode taught you by virtue of reaching him :)

This actually makes sense because the lingering will could sense it wasn't riku and a keyblade wielder from destiny islands. While I don't think he has sight because he lacks a physical body I think that he has a daredevil like sense to him.

[@Goofball61]

I like how Riku fought Roxas with a blindfold on, being Terra’s chosen one. In the World that Never Was, Riku was the one fighting with sense and Roxas was the irrational one. But here, Lingering Will is fighting Sora senselessly and Sora is the rational one. Riku knows exactly why he has to fight Roxas, but Sora has no clue who Lingering Will is, until KH3 that is.

@@wyattbulen6500 the trick for Lingering will is watching his feet when he's falling, when he touchs the grounds after an attack it means he will give you a small opening to attack, other way to make him vulnerable is to counter his cannon ball attack, he will get damaged and lose about 1 bar and a half of health and you still can combo him until he recovers, but you have to be REALLY close to him to parry his energy ball, if you stay too far it will bounce back at you.

[@mkmiett7488]

Am I missing something? How does he have 9 bars of Drive if this is the first time he fights Lingering Will? The cutscenes from the first fight play and he gets the Bonus level from this fight, which means it is the first time LW is defeated. In 2FM you get: +1 from Barbossa fight +1 from Hostile Program Fight +1 from Sephiroth fight +1 from Marluxia Absent Silhouette fight +1 from Xemnas final boss +1 from Lingering Will fight (first time only). Because you start out at 3 bars of Drive, you should only have 8 at this point.

Cutscene was probably edited in.

Maybe he'll be a boss in Kingdom Hearts 3. A way to "free Terra's will" or something like that.

[@ImCager]

If Ven, Aqua and Terra show up that is and It would have to be made a bit easier if it is a story boss

[@TheLastSoundNL]

I would asume so for Terra to return. The armour is Terra's 1st Nobody after all with Xemnas being the 2nd. Both of them have his memories and some feelings. Xemnas talks in the Chamber of Repose with that armour. That is not something Xehanort would ever do. Xehanort never gave a shit about Aqua in BBS. His Nobodies and his Heartless ( The Guardian of Xehanort's Heartless) must be destroyed for Terra to return.

[@TheDarkMarioAndSonic]

TheLastSound not exactly. It's clearly stated in BBS's ending that the armor is empty, and Terra's mind is what's controlling the armor, because the rest of his body accepted the fusion between him and Xehanort.

[@TheLastSoundNL]

TheDarkMarioAndSonic Yeah I know the armour is empty, but that doesn't mean it can't be a Nobody. What is a Nobody? A body with a soul (or life force in this game), a mind, memories and a strong will but no heart. The armour has Terra's memories, his will and life force (it moves and fights), just like a Nobody. It's more Nobody than Roxas and Namine were. Think of it like this; the armour is a part of Terra and his body.

[@TheDarkMarioAndSonic]

TheLastSound it makes sense at the same time it doesn't. Terra's Nobody, as well as Xehanort's, is Xemnas, because it's the Nobody of their fusion. Also, you commented that Ansem's Dark Guardian was Terra's Heartless, but that is a theory at best. Other thing, both Roxas and Naminé were Nobodies in their own right. Roxas was the conventional kind, having been born when Sora became a Heartless, and Naminé was a special case, also having been born from Sora, because, when he drove the Keyblade of Hearts into himself, he released two hearts, his own and Kairi's, therefore creating Naminé.

The most threatening attack on this fight isn't about his multi hit moves but that cursed bow attack that locks your commands and it drains your Hp one miss with low hp means an instant death not even last chance can save you from that

[@thehighestorder2868]

Just like sephiroth's descending heartless angel attack which drains all of your mp and kills you instantly unless second chance is equipped

dafran pogu Well I would’ say that. The beat him you just have to keep rolling and healing etc etc. With Lingering Will there’s no tactics you can abuse. It’s all skill.

[@shadowwarrior3444]

This fight almost gave me PTSD, I literally cursed when I saw Terra use the armor in BBS and cheered when I could use it to beat Xehanort

[@sofaris576]

How many times did you loose to him before you beat him? With me it was 30 times.

[@raheemaslam7363]

I shocked that terra didn’t confuse sora with ventus considering that people keep call sora roxas and roxas looks exactly like ventus and not sora

[@PrincessTwilightdash]

So technically we got a taste of keyblade form changes before it actually was a thing for example tera transform his keyblade into a whip then into a giga cannon

[@nessmess500]

Form change that was originally a shotlock command. Confusing transition 😂

[@Mr._Sherwood]

Yeah. I'll admit that was still a pretty tough fight, even if Dark Inferno's habit of strafing you every now and again gave you plenty of time to recover MP if you had to, and his attacks are definitely easier to deal with. Still way harder than anything else base KH3 has (Nomura has since shown his inner sadist with the goddamned data battles and Yozora) but hey, I'd still call it a fun encounter.

First KZbin video of this fight that I ever saw had the music "Heroic Battle" from Digital Devil Saga 2 playing in the background instead of the actual in-game music. Now I can't watch this fight without hearing that track playing.

[@TheCrispTurnip]

God the score for this game was beautiful

[@bridgethings4225]

Is

[@cosmicdreamer2169]

So, the Lingering Will is what was left of Terra after Xehanort screwed him over with the fusion thing: Terra's Keyblade Armor and his leftover will to wield a Keyblade. Almost sounds like a ghost story, actually. If I remember correctly, Terra was supposed to be skilled with earth elemental attacks, which he never used here. I guess there were some abilities his lingering will didn't get to keep.

[@lizardousgoat]

Malenia, Blade of Miquella went hard 6 years ago.

[@Renjiga]

This is the only battle that makes KH2FM so memorable. Oh, the music also, "Rage Awakened".

[@coreym8145]

it still blows my mind every time i am reminded that it was supposed to be Riku all along. If only he never went to the Darkness. I am still working my way through KH. I just finished birth by sleep and very close to finishing everything in time for KH3. Cant wait to see where the Birth by Sleep character go from here.

I had no idea this optional boss fight even existed

[@Davibay]

This is my kh experience: some friends told me Yozora is the most difficult boss in the entire kingdom hearts saga, more and more difficult than lingering will on kh2. Fighting Yozora on re mind: 1 day and about 40/50 tries Fighting Lingering will on kh 2.5: 3 weeks and 'bout 500/600 tries.

[@Cactuardude]

i had to use at least 12 megaelixirs to defeat lingering will

[@LuckiSir]

Is it me or does Lingering Will here look like he’s 6’5 or something because *he’s towering over Sora.*

Sora is short. Like kairi is his height He might be like 5ft 5”

This fight on the hardest difficulty will make you rage soooooo hard but beating him is the MOST satisfying reward. This dude took me so many tries

[@VoniC94]

we just need a big family reunion with everyone joining in at the end to defeat Xen in KH3. Or Like Ventus, Aqua, And Terra in there own timeline fighting Xen, Same with Riku, Sora and Kairi fighting Xen in their own since he is able to be in different dimensions . That would be phenomenal.
