The 10 *WORST* Kingdom Hearts Boss Battles!

[@thatkingdomheartsguy9615]

My traumatic fight is Data Larxene from KH2. She literally just spams thunder until you die, and due to the small battlefield, it's basically impossible to avoid it.

[@RubyRaggy]

Yeah for that one you gotta reflect after you hit her revenge value. Personally I had more trouble dealing with her clones

[@thatkingdomheartsguy9615]

@@RubyRaggy well that too the lighting attacks are just the most infamous for me.

[@limogch4586]

Same as her usual battles in my opinion 🥲

[@shadowlessgrandcross2165]

​@@thatkingdomheartsguy9615I think with Max glide you might be able to avoid it but it's been awhile since I fought data Larx in non-rando. Reflect is also going to help alot with the Spam and also just using Limits like duckflare

[@187btokes]

That's weird because she was the easiest for me. Beat her first try

[@DarkFrozenDepths]

"I've never been a fan of bosses being able to heal themselves" Logically, it makes sense... We have access to restorative moves and items, so bosses doing the same can be interesting and catch you off guard... It's just HOW it's implemented that's the issue. Having ways to prevent it would make it interesting. That YX fight at the end of DDD.... yeah screw that fight

[@mr.m1785]

Yeah, fair. The YX fight actually reminds me of a fight from another series (Tales) that I probably shouldn't waste time talking about. As for an example of a fight where the boss heals themselves that's actually kinda neat, I'd say Vanitas Remnant.

[@valydendor4472]

Yeah but bosses typically have deeper healthpools and more defense. Not to mention bosses a lot of times being able to bring you to near death in one or two hits.

[@mr.m1785]

@etonasama Eh. I was thinking YX though. Not Terranort. Another boss that can technically heal himself would be the final boss of Re:Mind. I was so frustrated that one time I actually emptied his health, but he'd stolen my kupo coin.

[@sofaris576]

You can prevent it and if you fail he comes back with less health and the second time you reach the clock it has also less health. So even if you mess up you still make progress. I honestly like his clock a lot.

[@mr.m1785]

@@sofaris576 Fair. I dont actually recall the fight that well. KH3D somehow ended up being one of my less liked KH games.

[@Hulk1566]

What I hate in a boss battle are when the boss attacks you and there is no way to impossible to dodge or not take damage, or when the boss is charging up something and they keep you away from attacking them like Sephiroth's heartless angel move.

[@dimentioo]

i feel the same way about xemnas stupid release move in the first kh that drains ur health it’s fucking annoying esp since you lose more health if u hit the wrong button

If thats true i love the boss more

[@jonathananderson1728]

Thing that aggervates me the most is when a boss only have a small window to actually damage them. Ursula in Rechain of memories is the worst because you'll have to start reloading your cards so the waiting period is even longer

Unless if you're playing as Riku, then the reload is instant. Lucky.

[@felixthecat5333]

To be fair in regards to the young xehanort fight it technically only returns him back to only four health bars, as apposed to him having his full health in the very beginning if you fail to beat the clock before it resets

[@engrchoy]

Mine had 1.5 bars left. Depends really on how much time there is left on the rewinding clock

[@bluerosekoro8875]

I thought it depends on how much Damage you dealt to the clock before the reset happens

[@johangodojolo8652]

It returns him back to usually less than half his health and the next clock phase the clock starts out very injured already

[@marvin39195]

Is he really that hard? I always beat him on my first try... i never really had an issue with that clock move

[@engrchoy]

@@marvin39195 in Proud he’s OK. In Critical he can be a pain

Don’t you diss BBS like that!

[@SagittariusAyy]

At least in DDD, he was manageable enough(Though maybe it’s because I used Reality Shifts)

[@mr_hoggy]

The way you described the Grim Reaper fight is actually the reason why it's one of my favorites, there is a certain rush I feel while managing MP and running around for the medals while dodging its attacks, it is a very fun fight that keeps you on your toes all the time, but still not being too hard, being quite mindless on Standard but decently challenging on Critical

[@MugenHeadNinja]

Yea, this is actually a *good* boss, not too hard but different enough to present its own challenge while still being interesting.

[@HaxeRoxas13]

I feel the same way!

[@thatkingdomheartsguy9615]

I literally accidentally beat MF as Terra. He was invisible and I guess I hit him enough times but I thought for like 10 seconds that he killed me because I was so used to dying.

[@Kirito843]

The amount of despair and PTSD I feel when I hear Dark Impetus play as some hooded dude twirling around blue lightsabers is pretty crazy.

[@GibbyTheBeard]

It gave me anxiety watching the Ursula fight and Sora attacking her from the front

[@seththemage6029]

Fun memory about Ruler of the Sky: I tried playing it in multiplayer as Demyx. The windup on the first hit of Demyx's basic combo is so slow that it's impossible to hit him.

[@lsdxiii]

Fun fact about Mysterious Figure, he was actually conceived and developed for the original Japanese non-fm release, but was cut due to the devs thinking he was an unfair fight. He would later be implemented due to story implications in the American release and later the Japanese Final Mix release of Birth by Sleep.

[@TheAzulmagia]

And then Young Xehanort had absolutely zero interactions with the Birth by Sleep cast at all outside of that game, making all of the pain and suffering completely pointless.

[@AGoodYouTubeUsername]

Not gonna lie. I like the Grim Reaper fight 😬

[@drew-horst]

Me too, not being able to find a missing coin is annoying but I liked the battle over all

[@defierofdeath2463]

I love Data Luxord in KH3. Really changes the pace of the fight, which helps a lot with the variety!

[@PathBeyondTheDark]

And there is little waiting around. As soon as one game is over the next begins. I like slowing the pace down a bit and using my brain. The only issue with the fight is not the fight itself, but how much Sora flails around with even a single melee press and you needing to be accurate. But that's just one of the several mechanic issues with KH3.

[@decayedphoenix8865]

It's really good. Skyward just has a skill issue

[@slayer4932]

My only issue is the auto target in the fight tends to make you accidentally hit the wrong card.

[@rocketdog734]

tbh 3D xehanort wasnt that bad considering that every time that he does rewind time, he has considerably less and less hp, so even if you couldnt stop it in time, it didnt extend the length of the fight TOO much.

[@akaii7787]

I remember the ruler of the sky genuinely hurting my hands to play against on DS cause of having to hold the glide button and move the dpad, also this isn't a boss battle but a mission in 358days where you need to clear SIX bosses , 2 of which I believe are mentioned already, in a very tight time limit.

[@jtomally9681]

Atlantica in KH1 I actually liked. The Grim Reaper in KH2 wasn't that bad to me. The Leechgrave is definitely a bad boss to fight. So annoying.

[@masterchiefspartan17]

Forgot to mention with the Julius fight that if he hits you with charged fists, you lose a command bar.

[@sniper9961]

I have an idea for a video, you know how each secret boss had theories on who they might be ? I think a video covering the history of each mysterious secret boss and the speculations around him would be fun.

[@fluffygab]

Dude I remember like 13 years ago watching a vid of the secret boss from bbs, (black coat guy with blue sabers) and thinking it was somehow xehanort with time travel with the clocks. Then I played DDD and yeahhhh.

[@NineHundredDollarydoos]

I never really had a problem with Young Xehanort in DDD. Mechanically speaking, the clock that resets the battle if you don't destroy it is just your standard time limit death, no different from Demyx. It just has neat flavour text and doesn't send you to the Game Over screen.

[@saartajalam1892]

I respected your takes but saying that data luxord is bad because you have to wait for openings is the most ridiculous thing i've ever heard. Idk if you played crit/lvl 1 crit but that applies for every data fight in kh3, and the fights are masterpieces because of it. The game forces you to pay attention and learn defense instead of mashing attack like most players are used to.

[@Jonathan-us1qu]

he has played crit since in some of the clips he had crit amount HP which i feel like makes this take more absurd

[@MrMeowstic7]

I like the concept of data luxord. It's more of a game than the kh2 version I think

[@johangodojolo8652]

Yea that take had me so confused. Especially when he said in the other kh3 datas you can be aggressive and attack them whenever while showing a clip of him trying to hit Larxene mid attack and getting the shit kicked out of him while dealing no damage. All kh3 datas have like 90% damage resistance while they're not open. Beyond just kh3 tho waiting for openings is the basis for like all well made kh fights. Thats just what you do in kh

[@PathBeyondTheDark]

It's definitely a hot take, but difficulty is subjective. It's obvious he did not know you could air step during the DM and he is right about Sora jerking too much during his combo starters. And while there is less waiting then he lets on (really there is no waiting, it's back to back games) it is definitely slower then the other ones.

[@StealthTheFoxz]

@@MrMeowstic7 I still loved his dialogue in KH2. "Look who's on top of the game!"

[@wolfknightleon3264]

[@bradygliwa2662]

9:25 From what I remembered from your previous version of this list, you had Trickmasters, Dustflier, Darkside & Zexion on there, since you did bring up Ursula, Spellican, Grim Reaper, Leechgrave & Ruler of the Sky already on that video as well.

[@Fr0zenNightmare]

I haven't played so much of the series, but I hated the final Riku fight in KH1. It wasn't hard, but it was lame as hell... If I tried to hit 3 times, he would do his stupid rage-swinging and hit me. So I finished this whole fight using 2 hits and then jump over him...

[@Ender41948]

I feel like Skyward doesn't know that Data Luxord (KHIII) does have openings after pretty much all of his attacks.

[@OtakuDeju]

The phrase "Dance water Dance!" Still haunts me. To this day. I really despise that boss fight.

[@grimmfiend2]

Julius legit gave me ptsd as a kid, i thought balloon sucked so i never used it. Oh boy i made it harder.

[@dethkruzer]

Watching this video made me realize that the bosses in Days were pretty hit-or-miss. Leechgrave and the Ruler were mentioned but the Antlion only allowed toy amall windows of attacks after which you had to hit back its own explosives when it rose out of the sand, and getting those explosives to go his way wasn't easy.

[@bsgfan1]

Fun fact: Mysterious Figure is the only boss battle that had to be nerfed for future releases. In the original PSP release, getting caught in his Collision Magnet was an automatic game over, since he’d follow up with an attack before the stun animation was finished. In the console releases, Collision Magnet became escapable with air dash. Not that it made much of a difference.

[@nicoflight3982]

[@davesinsanestudio8072]

Few of these are a bit incorect. For example YX in DDD only get's his full health back if you fail to do enough damage to the clock. Also in the Luxord fight you don't have to run towards the cards. You can use shootlock to slow down time and then airstep to the right one. I feel like few of these you just made hard for yourself lol.

[@yagirlmayalazarus6713]

I have actually never thought about doing this. Huh. Yeah that would speed things up incredibly.

[@lavayuki]

Terras final boss in BBS and the final boss for the final route in bbs were the worst. You basically have to rely on deflecting, because attacking as you combo’d to death. Took me ages

[@overlordjames6644]

having a list like this and not including the secret boss from 358 with a million HP that spends most of the fight flying away is just criminal

[@thespacewestern030]

Not having Terranort or Vanitas on here feels criminal, but seeing Leechgrave and Ruler of the Sky being so high is justified in my book

[@PathBeyondTheDark]

I find them a lot less aggregious then Data Riku. He is the only boss without a discernable pattern as far as I know and is more about reaction speed. I put all ez codes on so I could never die just to try and figure out how he works (really all combat based action games should come with a training setting) and I still could not do it. I beat him simply by mashing, you know the thing these fights are supposed to stop but he has the least HP if I'm not mistaken and one lucky run of last second healing and not getting destroyed while doing it is all you need.

[@thespacewestern030]

​​@@PathBeyondTheDarkI actually just finished the Data Fights/Yozora on my Crit run, and with them fresh on my mind, I didn't like Data Riku that much because of how spammy he was. Probably the most frustrating Data Fight for me. The worst one? Nah, that goes to Xigbar/Luxord. Also, Data Riku's patterns are tied to his explosive spawns. They spawn in horizontal lines, vertical lines, and circles, and each one of those give away what attack patterns he'll do. I can't tell you exactly what patterns are tied to what formation sadly, but someone more knowledgeable on the fight may be able to answer.

[@Thatboybeans]

Was Terranort hard? I found him to be a hard, but 1st tryable boss. Vanitas wasn’t a bas boss either in my opinion. Curious of your reasoning?

So 358/2 Days. There’s a particular mission in Mission Mode that’s essentially a Boss Rush for every Heartless you’ve faced relatively up to now. After clearing the last boss, you could exfill…or there’s a special boss you gotta go find. You get to the train station, and you are met with the most BS boss fight in the entire game. The Crimson Wyvern. This boss fight was a paaaaiin, with such a limited field of movement, it can summon a meteor shower that can rip 1/4 your health as damage per hit. It’s body slam can cause Silence, negating all Magic(who’s system was either busted or garbage, depending on the spell or level of the spell), it’s tail slap can cause Confusion, inverting your controls for a spell, or THE WORST AFFLICTION EVER in game, Weighted/ over-encumbered, with not only slows you down, but also limits your jump and gliding ability, in an already limited amount of space. I tried so hard to fight it…I noped after the 6th attempt. To this day I never defeated it, that thing is so INFURIATING!

[@michealforguson5317]

I've got a video walkthrough on my channel if you'd like to see how I beat the Dustflier.

[@PathBeyondTheDark]

You are meant to use air step during Luxord's DM. I find it the absolute easiest and least frustrating of the battles. You have just enough time to think before you are punished as opposed to the non-stop aggression of other fights, and it's more then just guard > counter to open up the opponent. I still love the other fights (aside from Data Riku) but Luxord is definitely the most fun for me.

For me personally, the hardest boss fight is the optional one in days where you have to fight seven giant heartless. I don't remember that secret dragon's name but the trauma I have from it and the satisfaction of screaming at the top of my lungs when I beat it.

[@pathfinder9401]

I've never been more stressed out fighting a boss fight like Ursula before 😭

[@LilianOrchard]

The worst for me are two bosses: Data Riku and Data Saix, from KH3. Data Riku's entire gimmick is just filling the screen with AOE, turning the boss into a game of "find the one pixel of safe ground." But both him AND Data Saix have far too many particle effects. I have vision problems and so the sheer amount of explosions and particles means I can't actually SEE anything going on. The fact that mechanically they're the same dance fight we've had since KH2 just means I can't see anything AND they aren't fun to fight. Say what you will about Mysterious Figure, but at least he had comedy value.

[@jonathanrobinson198]

I will not tolerate grim reaper slander lol. Especially when Vanitas Remnant didn’t make the list 😭

[@Yasuda9000]

The Mysterious Figure was very annoying to beat. It took me 2 days just to try and beat him with Aqua and Ventus and 3 days with Terra due to some limitations he has like the way he dodges is different compared to Aqua and Ventus so I had to adjust my way in fighting this guy. And after beating him, I thought I hope he doesn't show up again. Then Dream Drop Distance. I was fighting Young Xehanort and notice his weapon and the color and he is able to control time. And the first thing that came in my mind was : OH $#@%! NOT YOU AGAIN! There is also that Vanitis Remnant (I think that is what he is called) who was also in Birth By Sleep. When you fight him, he has only one health bar which I thought was odd and found out magic doesn't hurt him and you have to beat him with only physical attacks, the problem with that is that he takes very little damage that way so it takes a long time to beat him and it is another fight that you also have to dodge a lot. You also can't uses cure in this fight because he copys you and heals himself so have to use healing items instead or some other way to heal yourself. Shotlocks can't hurt him either, but they are useful in avoiding some damage if you are having problems dodging his attacks like when he encases himself in a black orb and sends shadow clones of himself to attack you. And the funny thing is that you have to beat him if you want to fight the Mysterious Figure (Young Xehanort) later on.

Honestly, I thought that the final battle with Marluxia (Re: Chain of Memories) was a difficult boss fight. Not only it's a card game, but he also has this annoying ability to scatter all your cards around the arena, and you scramble to get them back to respond to his one-shot attack.

I started out pretty bad at the gambler mechanics but his other moves felt doable. I haven't even attempted Data Luxord from KH3. Cherbourg from KH1 gave me so much trouble and then realizing I needed fully upgraded Aero to win felt cheap. It also made the rest of the game feel easier in comparison because I already had fully upgraded Aero.

Data Luxord in KH3 is arguably easier in KH3 just because there is no luck involved. There is not as much waiting as the video creator suggests and the special move he does you can use air step to get to him quicker

I love Julius. Wish they'd use more unknown characters, like old cartoons or the comics. That's why i also love the three musketeers world

1: Phantom or Ursula COM: Riku 4 2: Genie Jafar or Roxas 358: Leech Grave or Ruller of the Sky BBS: Mysterious Figure (Not a secret boss imo, this is an exabition match) Coded: Data Darkside/Anti-Soras DDD: Orb Ansem or Spellican 3: Lump of Horror

The ruler of the sky fight is the bane of my existence. It is so slow and when it goes berserk he does a lot of damage. It's still hard for me to believe that I beat this guy on the hardest difficulty. Took forever but I did it

Before I say anything, I love you’re content and I enjoyed the video 💗 Imma be real, I think putting Grim Reaper and Data Luxord on the same list as Leechgrave is kinda crazy. Like the days bosses are a whole new breed of terribly designed and miserable to do. At least Grim Reaper staggers and can realistically be beaten in a timely manner if you’re careful (unlike every days boss).

I still remember as a kid playing kh2 on critical and xaldin and xigbar were the biggest pain

[@DrawciaGleam02]

The ursula fight in KH1 is basically the climax of a recent Dreamworks movie.....😆😆😆

[@KH_Supernova]

Honestly if I had to chose a boss from KH2, in the second visit of the worlds, I'd go with The Experiment instead of The Grim Reaper... The Experiment Fight is scary to me, especially on LV1, oh my god xD Other than that, great list !

[@jaysonking4055]

The mole im dream drop drove me nuts having to fight it 2 times and it just kept running away from me That an xigbar as a kid i literally couldn't beat his move where youre in a small platform and have to run in circles

[@erickernodle7636]

I had the wonderful luck of wandering into the grim reaper fight with my MP low and no restorative items or abilities. It was not fun.

[@absollum]

As soon as Leechgrave popped up, I felt a bit of anger flair up. I've completed most of 358/2 days, but the last percentage is being able to beat this boss without taking too much damage. I still can't beat the stupid challenge.

[@AbandonSarah]

When you fight Riku in the castle in KH1. took my 12 yr old self like 3 months to beat him it haunts me to this day. im in my 30s

I think a Top 10 Worlds that Almost made it into a KH Game would be a cool list, I remember hearing from the creator of Gargoyles that NYC and the gargoyles characters were suppose to be in the original Game. Can only imagine what the music would’ve been like.
