Spoiler: TSA heavily implies that Henry was brainwashed by the movie Thor and became evil, hence why he dresses different, speaks differently and is now evil for no other reason. Hell, even him misremembering the past makes a lot of sense
@@serv4619 I believe it still is. Suda 51 is a major movie buff, he goes off about movies in his games if he gets a chance. If he dares insult a movie like that you know it pissed him off.
Note: To fight Henry Cooldown, you must have every beam katana, and it is recommended, but not mandatory, to get the infinite battery upgrade. Also, the timing for wrestling moves becomes much stricter. At low health, Henry will start charging up, and when he's done, he'll dash forward in an attempt to impale Travis with his beam katana. If this hits, he WILL impale Travis, send him flying through the air, and end the attack by SLAMMING him into the ground with the katana so hard, the concrete breaks. Needless to say, if this hits, you're done.
Honestly, one of the best final bosses I've ever played, well structured and very well gives off the final details this game needs. It's just like suda51 to fuck with the player last minute for no reason. Henry's battle, along with the plot importance is really enthralling, especially sense there's no big setting, just two brothers, in a motel parking lot, with beam katanas, slashing away at each other. Sir Henry Mother Fucker is a good character.
The Sir Henry fight was such a brilliant way to end the narrative to No More Heroes. Suda gives no down time to let you process what was just told to you about Jeane and instead launches you right into Sir Henry, almost as if to have you forget about Jeane entirely. Definitely a familiar narrative decision Suda51 loves to play with in his games, from Flower, Sun, and Rain to Killer7. To me, it works so well in subverting player expectations without breaking the narrative, as the plot is so OTT it doesn’t matter whether it makes sense or not.
The plot holes are compounding on themselves. Just give me another fun game with a wacky story. The second was fine ignoring most of the priors continuity Edit: I need me some of them cathartic waggle controls, and bring back choosing high and low attacks by raising and lowering the joycon. It'd be so great.
@@MaxLoafin it's no plot hole. twin brother implies same mom and dad. jeane is a half sister with the same father, by that logic, jeane is henry's half sibling as well.
This theme is cool because the whole song has this build up as if it’s about to play Travis’ theme but keeps pushing it aside or just moves past where it would start. I’m sure there’s some plot relevance in there somewhere besides them being brothers but I can’t figure it out, rad theme though Edit 19/3/24: I believe the metaphorical reason for this infinite buildup is supposed to represent that constant want of being first. You can always get close but you’ll never truly be ranked first, everyone you’ve killed and everything you’ve done will forever keep Travis from reaching the top comfortably, and Henry’s here to make sure of it. (I haven’t played any of the sequels so take this as a one game thought)

That wasn't really a problem for me, it was that you had to hit him around 800 times plus about 5-6 wrestling moves on him, and that its so time consuming that your hand might end up cramping halfway throughout the battle. However after you do finally beat him it feels so rewarding
You know I sometimes forget that Henry didn't have a last name in the first game or even the second one, I think they reveal it in TSA but I only discovered it because of his fight in NMH 3 which got spoiled to me.
this might've been a reference to his latest game, Lollipop Chainsaw. From the trailers, it looks like the lovechild of No More Heroes and Highschool of the Dead.
His full name is Henry Cooldown, don´t know if was just a plan for his last name be Cooldown, my source is a guy that worked in the testing of No more heroes
His name isn't Henry Cooldown. It was an internet thing that caught on, and the idiots at Goodfeel who remade NMH for PS360 thought he was actually called Henry Cooldown. It was a mistake that GHM and Suda51 had nothing to do with - Henry's surname is completely unknown at the moment. Of course, it would make sense for his name to be either Touchdown or Christel.
suda said he would maybe like the nxt char 2 be a girl but the thing is that suda says maybe about alot of things (because he is a crazy genius and has 2 many ideas). but i think we wont know anything untill the WII U is out, well we wont know anything honest but im sure rumors will be spread.. mostly by suda himself!
@hardysforever Or, "I can't bear to look at your awful swordsmanship!" And he says "How's THIS for a little fun!" I've never heard that time for you to sleep line...
no i mean in an interview about NMH 3 he said he hopes to make it for the WII U and it most likely wont star travis touchdown, saying maybe it would be a girl taking his place, i dont think he means to make juliet starling that girl. as cool as NMH is and lollipop chainsaw looks i doubt he means to make a crossover game (altho a smash bros style game with suda chars would be amazing)

never doubt Henry.

He's too- _Cue the instant kill move_

To avoid that attack, dark step. The easiest way to do so is spamming left and right while you block. Then you can interrupt Henry's combo with ease.

That's "Mr. Sir Henry Motherfucker" to you!
Interestingly enough, even with Dark Star and Letz Shake down, we still get a grand total of 10 boss fights in this game.
I kinda wish we got to fight Dark Star, I know he was a parody subversion character but was still pretty cool
@@boogaloo_weed i mean we did get Ryugi, he has a pretty similar weapon to Dark Star's horse saber
So, where is my badass Irish twin brother? I honestly need one, like...ASAP!
Well you got me I am Bold Hair and Blue eyes and it’s all natural too!!
Youre not travis, also hes out to kill you, you better become comfotable with that before he becomes youre brother......yew weeb xD
Wait...I just realised that Henry got married at 17 years old. Weird.
Henry's a playa
Oh shit,I just realized that Sylvia was 14 when they got married..... -_-
+Sean O'Farrell wtf.
+Sharp Rich Dragon wtf wtf.
Ricardo Yellows Her official age in the first No More Heroes is 24 and they got married ten years before,so yeah.
I love this brotherly love Travis/Henry and Dante/Vergil share
The build - up of this song is absolutely amazing
I wonder if Jeane ever met Henry. After all, she's his half-sister too.
Sam Geuvenen actually no. Jeanne and travis had the same father while travis and henry the same mom, i don't think they also have the same father
That FE Lord Who Dies Halfway Through His Own Game my bad then. but how travis did forget his twin ?
But Henry and Travis are twins.

I know right?
I mean, Killer 7 is incredible, I NEED NMH :(

.... what game...? :O

"Travis, it's time for you to go to sleep!'
Anyone else think Disney/Lucasfilms totally stole Henry's beam katana?
I mean, you're not wrong, but NMH also stole lightsabers from Star Wars in the first place. So they can call it even.
@@cozybones4644 in star wars they aren't shaped like swords like in nmh but still its really inspired
Yeah Henry's were made to be dumb if it just slips a little **shknk** No fingers for you and Disney just didn't give a hell so they put it in
i love the title of this song, simply awesome
Shouldn't it be "Henry Cooldown" instead of just "Henry"?
Would be if the narrator hadnt just said henry
The surname 'Cooldown' wasn't used untill NMH2
i would like to have henry as a feature main character of a new no more heroes game MAKE IT HAPPEN
That would be cool
Down
Henry needs his own game. He could be the protagonist in No More Heroes 3 and Travis could be the number one assassin. A man can dream...
Creo que quedaria mejor como Spin-off
instead we got travis fighting aliens

When that 1:42 hits 🤩
Just wanted to add a precision : his full name is revealed to be Henry Cooldown in No More Heroes : Heroes's Paradise (Score Attack trial)
An otaku. His Irish twin brother. Armed with beam katanas. In a motel parking lot.
Shit's about to go DOWN.

NMH 3 should be about Travis taking down the UAA! Oh n lets us use Henry as well xD
Travis as an SSB character would be fucking boss.

Got the western knight vs the eastern samurai
this might've been a reference to his latest game, Lollipop Chainsaw.
From the trailers, it looks like the lovechild of No More Heroes and Highschool of the Dead.
best theme I ever heard
this is why I loved the internet. XD
What they did to Henry in No more heroes 3 is so disgraceful.
that entire game is a disgrace to the whole franchise
7 people has disgrace themselves
Dance with me travis
"Kuwabara kuwabara"
I can't even try to top that.
his quote should be "Time for you to sleep!" like in his instant kill attack. but other than that, great job, amazing song.

can't get this outta my head, help
Captain Ginyu switch bodys after Namek Saga and he is now in Henry body (Basically, the Japanese Seiyuu is the same)
How?
Henry's last name is actually Cooldown.
Guitar Hero: No More Heroes edition. What do you guys think?
Also, this song would be hard as hell on expert.
Yeah, just one thing is sure, he doesn't want Travis to be the protagonist in the next game, cause he said "Travis's story ended"
Finished it a month ago.It's epic
Because of a betrayment was that...
Imagine if Travis is Dante, Henry is Vergil, Helter Skelter is Sephiroth, and Skelter Helter is Cloud.
Jordan Yehezkiel basically, All was based on that thing that you say
This guy is a real pain in the ass on Bitter difficulty.
Henry's last name is Cooldown.
They're not short, those creases are just from where the trousers bunch at the top of the boots. His knees are higher.
Dude, Henrys' daughter to be the protagonist of the next NMH game.
His bro was hott
Gumi K Henry is pretty hot.
YEAAAAAAAAAA!
He may look cool But Travis Is Badass
Fun fact: Sir Henry's voice actor is the one who voiced Raiden in the Metal Gear games.
I like how the top comments are the same guy saying the exact same thing,
You must never have been hit by his instant kill then.
@Asujoll I meant PS3 and Xbox 360 xD It's a quick way of saying both.
Not a bad thing you've got goin on here.
I hope that Suda51 makes No More Heroes 3 on the Wii-U.
Well, 7 years and another Nintendo console after this comment, we’re getting it alright.
Do I hear grendizer in this ost!?! Never played the game but damn
My UA-cam picture? Yeah, it's Volgin.
Yeah I can see the ported version being tough to get, but i survived on watching walkthroughs. But yeah I never played NMH since i was with a 360.
