Love the version of Simple and Clean you use in the opening. Wonderfully brisk pace to it all and a great energy. It's a very refreshing change to a classic song.

[@DarkFrozenDepths]

so wait, if you don't do anything, you actually can not get damaged by older pete.... AT ALL..... maybe he should have been the tutorial boss....

[@Fallen_Inari]

Funfact by rushing through the Story without Leveling at all, he practically COULD kill you... be he doesnt even intent to, since he... just stands before you doing NOTHING AT ALL

[@randomwitheramazements3772]

When I fought against regular Pete in the world, older Pete got pushed back even after Pete’s defeat animation started.

Nice list man ! Some of these strats like casting Blizzaga at Jafar I never knew about !

[@JOC9271]

Thank you! and i learned that strat from speedrunning.

[@boxtank5288]

If you ask to get gravity before the Jafar fight, you can use it on Iago and suddenly the fight becomes even more of a joke because Iago can't even fly out.

[@doofnetwork6197]

Wow. Didn't know that it didn't matter if you die to Darkside in the beginning or not.

[@MegaSpideyman]

Was worried you were going to put Zexion's Absent Silhouette fight at #5.

Don`t be so hard on yourself. At least you're not DSP, who died to the roxas vs axel boss fight when playing in beginner mode... ...twice

@@azurethewolf8518 youre talking about DSP, he manages to not use Weapons in Ratchet and Clank... wich actually lives from its hilariously OP and absurd Weapons...

[@bippythechippy882]

Same here. On KH3 I tried proud mode after playing on standard for a while and I died to darkside. I was to used to most of the abilities you get mid to late game.

[@binman6460]

You forgot about sitting xemnas (kh2) where he literally doesn’t move

[@ThePrestoGuitar]

After watching some of your older countdown lists (mostly what I come to this channel for) I wanted to say that you've really improved! Keep making these ^.^

[@JOC9271]

Bae wulf I will. Thank you :)

[@hazzydahaka13]

Guess who's excited for the next countdown? Also Happy New Year!

[@JOC9271]

Master core 50 Happy New year!!

[@thomasmurrell9832]

That Axel fight is super cool, but they shoulda done 2 things: 1st: at least triple his health. Yeah, that makes it about 4 full bars of health, but due to how frequent you hit him in the fight, it'll feel like only 2 bars. You shred his health faster than I can shred cheese, so a lot of health will not be that big a deal. I feel that Square made Roxas's dual wielding AFTER the fight was programmed, cause his health is PUNY for how much damage you can deal. 2: decrease his revenge values and make him non lockable when he dives into flames. If you fight in even a simple way, he'll only use his counters no more than 3 times (if you're lucky, mind you). If you make it where he can counter more often (but NOT breaking out of a combo like in the handheld games), it'll make the player more cautious, and when he canmot be locked on after diving into the flames, it'll make his attacks more surprising, thus making him more challenging. If these 2 tips were filled, we could've had mot only a challenging fight, but a SUPER epic battle, since challenge can add to memorability in a boss fight, like Lingering Will.

[@GamecubeGrace1989]

The easy KH bosses are what you button mash through. The hard ones are the ones that actually require a bit of thought. The hardest bosses are the ones that take FOREVER to beat, are the ones that keep you on your toes throughout the battle. Then there’s the super bosses... don’t... get me started.

[@un_known5895]

i'm a bit skeptical about your #1, unlike the other bosses in KH2 where you get a power up bonus after defeating the boss, you don't get anything of the sort from him, it's more of a gimmick fight where you cannot lose. period.

[@pelzlau]

I died a lot on lucifer when I did my lvl 1 ventus run

[@ThePenitentMan1]

After seeing the beta trailer for KH1, I've only ever fought Darkside by climbing on his arm and hitting his face. It definitely makes the fight a little more interesting.

[@PikminandOatchi]

Thanks for helping me grind to level 100 RT.

[@LightbladeRiulo]

Happy new year my dude! Great video this time around.

[@JOC9271]

Thank you!

[@doodlebugfour7070]

When I was a kid when I 1st fought Older Pete, I actually lost to him the 1st time since I didn't notice the shockwaves when he fall downs.

[@SilverNero]

5:20 the reaction command never appears to me.

[@Ace2014Ace]

the first time i played Kingdom Hearts was my cousin let me play his game and he started me on Hercules. i died because i couldn't understand the control scheme and how to pick up the barrels (original not remix), then he thought it would be funny to trow me into the platinum match. Hercules killed me in 2 min i don't know how but it took Sephiroth 5 min to kill me. beginners luck i guess. but i decided i need to buy the game.

[@scarletthornbite2120]

Can you please do a top ten hardest side bosses. Basically any boss that isn't mandatory for the story.

[@JOC9271]

I will after KH3

[@scarletthornbite2120]

For the behemoth you can also duck under it to avoid the lightning strikes.

[@roxassorason4511]

With behemoths thunder attack roll under him and it'll miss

[@Rahnonymous]

6:35 or as the Japanese would call it, "auto pirate"

[@scarletthornbite2120]

Would you rather fight a boss that's so easy that it's boring, and the boss has so much health it takes forever to kill, or a boss with little health, but it's frustratingly hard to land a hit on the boss?

[@JOC9271]

Scarlet Thornbite hard boss. I like a challenge

[@axemmela658]

[@TheJaredPunch]

Happy New Years!!!

[@JOC9271]

Happy New Year!

[@jlogan2228]

The worst part of rock titan is that hes not even useful for level grinding BC you only get about 5000 points between defeating him and the tech points which sounds good but honestly takes for freaking ever just to get to him and the fight itself takes forever. By that stage you shpuld be able to just go to Neverland, and go to the ships deck til you get the rare teuffles and do their jump mechanic. By flying and practice you can usually get 5k points each off all of them so 15k

[@axelgutierrez1093]

Peter Pan from BBS? All he does is flying around

[@masonhostetler3836]

Some massive improvements Joc👍🏼 Great job. Also technically speaking that's Pete from the past so he's actually younger Pete. I think🤔

[@JOC9271]

Mason Hostetler thank you and yeah I suppose it is.

[@PikminandOatchi]

He's both younger and older. TIME WARP.

Gravira does a shit ton of damage to Behemoth too. I kind of wish Gravira was brought back for KH3. I think it could've been tuned to help with airborne enemies if done right

[@ShinyUmbreon106]

In the jafar fight in kh1 I easily forget he’s even there he literally does nothing to you in the entire fight

[@Meowtimez]

Wouldn't it be younger Pete since it's in the past?

Hey joc! This is ggamer98. Great list man!

[@JOC9271]

Jacob D'Onofrio thank you!

[@theogthief1153]

The second grim reaper fight took me at least an hour only for I tried it on critical mode and died at least a dozen times cause I got one shot by most of his attacks

[@crashbandicooch7045]

Updated Top 10: The entirety of KH3 Bosses

[@canalxpcial5108]

I could put Twilight Thorn in 4th at least, this thing is quitle more easy then Darkside and you just die if you rush on Lv1 without use Aerial Recovery... So thats its impossible lose to it, since with only one reaction command combo you can beat it at Lv2 if use the Sword in the Station of Serenity.

[@jonathanplooij3666]

thanks for the video

[@DarkEinherjar]

Hercules is fucking annoying in the Time Attack because of how little time you're given to deal with him in addition to Cloud and the rest of the Cup... or he WOULD be, if there weren't a glitch you can abuse to freeze the timer in the Hercules fight alone and take your sweet time with him. :P For those who don't know about this glitch, when you start the fight with Hercules, you can pause the game and restart that fight. If you do so, the timer will be permanently frozen and you won't have to worry about losing because of it. This apparently only works in Hercules Cup, and only in the fight against Hercules.

[@EmelyaR6]

I'm glad the Larxene isn't in the list

[@rubpoliwop7503]

I think I’m the only person who had trouble with the Behemoth...

[@briankelly130]

I feel that while most of these are fairly simple, most of them are just plain fun to fight against, either in how the battle plays out or who you're fighting. Also, isn't the Roxas/Axel battle meant to showcase how powerful Roxas is now that he's regained his memories and so he's fighting with his full power? I'm just saying that I feel that battle is more of a set piece than any real threat, it's sort of like the second Darkside in KH1, not too difficult but allows you to understand how powerful the keyblade can be.

[@radmaster16]

Volcanic and Blizzard Lord are the second easiest after Old Pete, so they should have at least been included. Rock Titan is also very easy to defeat. And I'm not sure if Old Pete actually is a real boss. In case he is, Seifer should also be included.

[@castle3267]

Oggie boogie? The only difficult fight in the first half of chain of memories?

[@maxiusdark7244]

2:30 Saw that and was like: Bullshit!, that bitch made me grind for 3 weeks! With school too! (nice vid btw)

[@velvetkey1367]

Genie Jafar has a laser attack?

[@LtBasil]

"Older Pete" isn't even a boss, he's a mini-boss. And a lame one at that.

[@elgost2774]

Preety good list if I were to list the 10 easiest it would be: 10. Spirit of the magic mirror(Terra) 9. Riku 1st fight(KH1) 8. Cursed coach(BBS) 7. Riku (Days) 6. Axel 2nd fight(KH2) 5. Lucifer(BBS) 4. Darkside 3rd fight(KH1) 3. Hercules(KH2) 2. Rock Titan(KH1) 1. Grim reaper 1st fight(KH2)

[@DarkEinherjar]

IMO, Past Pete doesn't really qualify... he doesn't even have a full life bar and this is clearly meant to be a joke fight that poses less danger than a mandatory Heartless/Nobody mob fight... but that's my opinion, feel free to disagree. I'm more willing to put PRESENT Pete (KH2) or Hades (KH2, non-Coliseum fights) somewhere in this list: aside from the arena shenanigans he pulls off during the Timeless River fight, Pete barely poses any real threat, and Hades's only slightly dangerous attack is when he surrounds himself with flames in order to become invincible again. Also, both fights allow you to use your Drive Forms without any risk of Anti-Form because the presence of extra characters in the fight (Past Pete and Hercules) disables it.

[@qdoubledc8385]

With your number one pick would it technically be young Pete because your in the past

[@Xamuswing]

I feel you should do a lvl 1 comparison, because even with the limited stats, some of the bosses in the later half are still pathetically easy. Ex: Jaffar and Hook in KH1, or Reaper from KH2.

[@trustme3321]

The new top 10 would be exclusively kh3 bosses. Edit: except Pete.
