    My favorite part about this is the implication that not only did Dr. Kahl's robot have a soul, but also snuck off to the casino and gambled it away and asked his dad to help him out when the debt collectors swooped in.

      @akurai-v-4129 4 роки тому +45

      Literally all the phases are a mix of all three of those. The first phase I would say is *Critical Thinking and Timing.* You need to destroy them in the right order or you’re almost guaranteed to die. The Second Phase is more like testing your *Reaction Time and Endurance.* The third phase is *Endurance and Bullet Hell.* But that’s probably just me.

    Doctor Erwin Kahl was a genius. A criminal, yes, but a genius. His aspirations knew no bounds, and he yearned to one day rule the entirety of Inkwell Island. But building a weapon powerful enough to subjugate the island's inhabitants would take both time and resources, neither of which he was in any hurry to expend in any great detail. Eager to gain such a weapon, or at least the material necessary to create it, Doctor Kahl sought out an even greater evil genius than himself: The Devil. The Devil offered to solve both of the mad doctor's problems at once by promising him a grand machine of incredible power, which the doctor would find in the nearby junkyard. Although hesitant, Kahl ultimately agreed, unaware that the Devil had not given him a gift...but a loan. And the time would soon come for him to collect his due.

    • @Elalmadebudin

    Fun Facts about Dr. Kahl:
    Dr. Kahl has the least amount of health of any plane boss on every difficulty.
    Phase 1- 1250/675/840
    Phase 2- 140/180
    Phase 3- 1120/1440
    Total- 1250/1935/2460
    He has the record for least amount of space for a phase on the death screen progress bar.
    He also has the record for the most amount of space on the death screen progress bar. (Not counting bosses with one phase on the death screen progress bar.)
    He has the most amount of health for a phase out of every boss.
    (Expert Mode Final Phase: 1440)
    His final phase takes more hitpoints to beat than all of these bosses on Expert:
    The Root Pack
    Goopy Le Grande
    Baroness Von Bon Bon (even with highest hitpoints setup)
    Rumor Honeybottoms
    Captain Brineybeard
    Phantom Express
    King Dice + all his minions (each individually)
    No DLC bosses :(
    He is the only boss of the main game to remove two phases on Simple difficulty.
    (Other is Moonshine Mob)
    Health distribution for Phase 1:
    3 Body Parts: 250/150/180 (each)
    Heart: 500/225/300
    His music is a remix of the 2014 trailer for Cuphead .
    If you died in Phase 1, formally, no progress would be shown.
    He has the record for largest health difference between different difficulties of a phase. (1250 on Simple, 675 on Regular; 575 difference)
    He is the only plane boss to NOT have a total health on Regular ending with ‘0’.
    (Excluding secret phases)
    Final Fact:
    He has the record for being the main game’s most decided “hardest boss.”

      I can't be the only one who got Eggman vibes in the third phase with the crystals he pulls out, and I also got a little bit of SMW Bowser vibes from the looks of the little hovercraft he's in but that might just be me.

    Doctor Kahl was a strange but kindly fellow, a misunderstood genius who was ignored by his fellow man due to his eccentric ways. Kahl was lonely and longed for a friend, then he got an idea. He managed to build a giant robot, but he wasn't satisfied with a mere machine, he wanted to make it actually alive and able to have emotions. Being a super genius he devised a way to place his own life force into the robot, but he himself was left a dry husk. The robot, now a thinking and feeling being, was grateful, but he was sad about his creator's fate. The Devil offered to grant Dr Kahl life again, in exchange for the robot's new soul. After returning to life Dr Kahl was rightfully afraid that the Devil wouldn't keep his end of the bargain and so the two of them hid in the junkyard ever since.

    First drop 4 bombs in the lazer and bait him upwards (The Lazer dies to 6 bombs)
    Quickly clean up the spaceships, do damage and parry on that other lazer thing.
    Use the bombs on the 2 down whenever is possible, those skull bombs die 1-shot to the bomb, so remember that.
    After you cleaned those two down, "kill" the lazer and get your fingers ready for changing weapon a lot. "Kill" the heart with the normal gun.
    In stage 2, "kill" the bombs ASAP, don't let more than 3 accumulate. Use the bomb for the head, around 9 bombs and you should be good.
    SAVE YOUR SUPER FOR HERE, in stage 3, you will want to use your Super Bomb in Dr. Kahl, then get ready for bullet hell, it's not that hard. Use normal gun. GG GOOD GAME.
