No one really goes over that Yazora does something that has so far been impossible in the lore of the series. He steals, albeit temporarily, a keyblade.
@Wanderingsage7 Oh my god, how that never crossed my mind is beyond me. Maybe it's because I'm too desensitized to be shocked that anybody can get a Keyblade. xD
Something to note about the fake outs - when Yozura appears directly in front of Sora, that indicates a takeout. Only when Yozura changes where he appears (to the left or right) of Sora, that indicates him coming in to actually attack. You can see this more clearly if you stand still during his fakeout attacks instead of moving about the arena
It took me forever to beat this guy, and that was on Easy and having given myself so many Defense Buffs that Dark Inferno barely phased me and so many Strength and Magic Boosts that I could take out half of Dark Inferno's HP with one Ultimate Form combo and do half a health bar with a Firaga. The thing is, this guy is very aggressive, he wants to force you to be defensive, and he will not leave himself open, you need to FORCE an opening.
I got max strength and defense and almost max Magic now and all the best gear i can get, now just gotta have the mood to fight this yocuntza on Proud mode.
@@Jeptheplay this is the fight to really get the player's skills in gear, both defense and offensively, once learning all his moves like flashcards, I dominated him on Critical Mode
Actually being aggressive seems like a bad move in this fight. Learning his attacks and counter-attacking when you know he has an easy opening is the only way to beat this guy on harder difficulties. If you don't know the punish for a move just wait until he starts another one.
The boss we nvr imagined to face, Yozora in my opinion is on a different lvl as if he's LW from the future and in my mind he's the best/toughest and most entertaining boss we've always wanted to see
If you shotlock with ultima weapon during the first tractor beam attack and use it immediately, the first 3 hits will break armor and the last 2 will damage him normally. He is also opened for you to combo him.
Something else I've noticed is that the Crystal Regalia accessories dropped by Yozora and Dark Inferno appear to be referencing/foreshadowing the endings, particularly the one where Yozora wins. "Crystal" refers to Sora's fate if Yozora wins, as well as being a generic FF reference, while "Regalia" is the name of Noctis's car in FFXV, and the Versus XIII version appears in both endings.
A world taking place in the ruins of Cocoon or Gran Pulse would actually be kind of cool. If they open up ruined Cocoon a bit and remove some hallways it could be a great world. A place like new Bodhum would fit perfectly in a Kingdom Hearts game. Maybe Sora would have to use the power of awakening to unfreeze Vanille and Fang.
@@Lumina_Rosa Sure do, but Kingdom Hearts Tops them all. It is my favorite series & Sora is my All Time Favorite character, he's the Best! 👍 I'm always happy to make New Friends, my friends are my power. 😊
The scene when Sora turns to ice is actually reminiscent of something that occurs in Final Fantasy XIII. In FFXIII, characters were prone to turning into crystal statues under certain circumstances, and Final Fantasy XV/Versus XIII was actually originally supposed share in the same lore. Therefore, it's widely believed that it isn't ice, but crystal that Sora becomes encased in, making it another Final Fantasy nod.
If we were to play as Yozora in the next game, I hope that he is as amazing as he is in here. While there are some restrictions as its still a video game, but I do want his boss attacks to be part of his movement. I just hope that he doesn’t disappoint in terms of overall story like Lingering Will did in Remind.
I was waiting for this! Yozora is super interesting, I can't wait to see more of him in future games! I haven't made it to Yozora yet, but when I do I will definitely use this breakdown as a guide!
Wooow great breakdown here ! Yozora is a true warmachine and his moveset definitely looks similar to Noctis. Nomura's revenge is very powerful. Nomura is the real Lingering Will. Thanks again for your hard work and may your heart be your guiding key 🙂 !
Holy shit i got goosebumps when you opened up with the possibilitie of KH being a parallel Video game to Verum Rex......that makes scaringly much sense with what we know so far
Really well done video, I only have one gripe with it. I wish you mentioned all the cool little differences and details on Sora's Secret episode character model. His color bones are more refined, he now has a lot of skin blemishes and marks on his hands and elbows and generally all over his body. The lightning on him is a lot more realistic too. Same goes for the textures of his clothes and chain. They overhauled the entire character model which I could not help but notice from the moment you see sora staring at his hand in the secret episode.
Basically with the reticle move, he has three sets of attacks he does. The one where he starts with a fast slash, the one that starts with two fake outs, and the last one that starts with one slow slash. He’ll do those in a random order, and the last one you didn’t know how the fake outs worked basically is the same thing. He’ll either do 2, 3, or 4 fakeouts. It’s random which one he does first, but he’ll always do all three of them before he does the same one again. So if he did that specific move 4 tines, you’d only see the same number of fakeouts once. All of these DLC bosses run on different kinds of cycles and patterns, it’s weird honestly. Hope that helped :)
Win or Lose, you still feel like you just made a grave mistake, both endings are just so somber before we get the scene with Yoroza in the car. Getting a strong feeling that Sora and Yoroza are going to be way more deeply connected, like Sora's heart is now within Yoroza's to maybe a less dominant extent depending on the victor of the fight, I have nothing to base this off except that it's so strange that the order in which they deliver the lines just feels important for each ending.
One thing I like that Yozora does during his fight is that he only DMs once, once. Because I will freely admit that 2FM superbosses spammed their DMs way too much.
The last thing, about the "an oath to return" part, reminds me of a line in the Japanese version of Don't Think Twice "it's not a promise, it's an Oath" I wonder if this same distinction is made with that end scene. Also, the music for this fight is so damn good. Shimomura, if she composed it, has hit another one out of the park.
Oh! I wanted see Riku vs Yozora now. If Riku finds out what he did to his friend(Assuming Yozora winning against Sora is canon), then Riku will be very upset.
The amount of little details in the attack animations of KH is absolutely phenomenal. I would LOVE to see a breakdown of more KH boss fights just so we can appreciate the little details. -I'd totally be a Patreon patron for that too- !
This gotta be one of favourite boss fight in the whole series I love his background love his music and his attacks Also a tip if anyone need it when Yozora doing the barrage of laser attack he followed a strict pattern as in he can do teleports from the middle and then the side and he can do this attack during any of three barrage of laser attack
Something to mention while i personally fought yozoro, when he does those fake out attacks in 16:40, 17:20, and in 22:30 he will always have 5 "attack attempt" (where he dashes or flips at you making a real or fake attack), 3 of which are fake and 2 are real. if you can count the attacks he does that, you can predict when his next attack is real, particularly after dodging/blocking the first real attack. Normally i'd just dodge roll at the moment he disappears since it will dodge when the attack is real, then block the next hit after counting it. I have dodge the second real attack when he's doing the flip attack, while the dash attacks I've always blocked since he hits multiple times. Edit: cant really explain what happened at the third wave in 23:24 tho. the only time the 5 "attack attempt" rule was sometimes inconsistent
lol i saw your tweet about the video was was pleasantly surprised to see it be over 20 mins. There' so much to yozora and i can't wait to see more of him :) I've seen some theorise that he's kinda like xion in which his appearance changes depending on who sees him. It's interesting to see that he has access to sora's heart station, can steal his keyblade (i.e. an extension of his heart), and has hp stealing attacks (perhaps he and xion are absorbing sora??)
I think the trials Yozora went through were his tutorials. Anytime you go to practice gameplay mechanics in Kingdom Hearts III, you do it in The Final World. Heck, the first boss of the game is fought in The Final World. I get the feeling we’re going to play as Yozora in a future game and fight Sora as the first boss.
Just fought Yazora for the first time a few days ago, have not beat him yet, but when he stole the keyblade that was the craziest thing I’ve seen in all 3 main games lol. Literally shouted “what the fuck!?!?!” At my tv 😂
I was able to escape the sequence after he steals the keyblade without taking damage just one time. It was a bit difficult timing the rolling just right. This is such a fun boss.
Sorry Friend, there were more opening and more things you could’ve mentioned. Honestly kinda happy that I learned this boss so much that I could see missing information on other people’s video. Still an awesome video and I loved rewatching glimpses of my deaths one more time. Sigh..
I blocked the first beam and dodge roled out of the next two straight into attack. That's how I staggered him during that sequence. Also if you use ultimate form while yozora is trying to take your items you can get out of it the same way that you did. (He'll heal half a bar though.) You have to dodge when he teleports, then dodge again straight into attack when he returns.
Wish you mentioned this being "nomuras revenge" on ffxv versus xiii as noctis caelum means night sky and same for yozora and how verum rex means true king really good breakdown though keep it up 👍👍
Probably just me, but the way Yozora fights feels fundamentally similar to Xigbar. Both use gravity shifting abilities, teleport all the time (which I know isn't new to KH bosses at all, as many of them do it especially those in the Organization) and both have ranged weapons. Just Yozoras is a crossbow and Xigbars is a gun. But both also use space warping powers to change the trajectory of their shots as well. Many have probably noticed that, but it was the first time I've really seen Yozoras fight and it seems very similar to Xigbar at times.
Also has a lot of moves from Zexion’s Re:COM fight for some reason! Like stealing powers, the vacuum that sucks you in, even Yozora jumping down on the dome of data with his sword is a Zexion move.
@@millionshadesofdarkness2165 Good eye on that. I now realize how "capture-like" his moves were after some reflection. Really nice touch to the battle and what Yozora is capable of.
My best guess is that Yozora believes the heart of the girl he's trying to save (also named Sora) is inside our Sora. He views Sora as something akin to how we see Heartless; when we defeat one, we set the heart they'd stolen for themselves free. He's trying to save the girl, and he believes our Sora has stolen her heart like a Heartless would. So, when Sora crystallizes, Yozora's determination is solidified; he will save her, but he's not quite sure how to get her heart out of Sora. That is, he assumes her heart is inside Sora; we know that's probably not the case, but somebody put him up to this and convinced him pretty thoroughly.
Something interesting is that the pyramid attack Yozora uses is that it kinda reminds of the yellow stun shields in FF7. Please forgive me if I got the name wrong I only played FF7 remake and the beginning of the original.
Sadly i still cannot watch this glorious breakdown. I still need to beat the data org and would like to experience this fight personally myself. the best i can do is leave you a like for support
When I’m up against the tractor beam that steals the kupo coin I like to wait until the end of his 3rd beam and cast Thundaga which creates an opening (Gotta use airstep in order to get to him before he lands) Also, Young Xehanort said that he was from a video game when he threw Sora into the Gigas mini game
Granted, his abilities would need to be toned down and balanced out damage-wise to make the game even remotely fair for the enemies, but Yozora's kit seems like it could be extremely fun to play with. You could do something similar to Sora needing to fill up his formchange meters or focus gauge in order to deploy some of his machines, like the ones that trap Sora in a triangular prism or the projector sphere thing that seems to be able to change the gravity of an area (albeit temporarily.) There's lots of potential for an extremely fun, fast-paced moveset there, and I hope either Yozora becomes playable in the next game or Sora unlocks some similar tricks. Speaking of...I know this is a point of contention, but I feel like the "bad ending" where you lose to Yozora is the canon ending. I mean...We know Sora spends some amount of time wandering Shibuya (Quadratum) and Yozora is quite clearly alive and well in those scenes. And, if Sora had simply ended up in The Final World again, wouldn't Riku, Kairi, and the Fairy Godmother have found him when they went searching the place? I could be missing something...But it strikes me as the most logical to assume the "correct" ending is losing to Yozora. Why even bother animating a wholly unique cinematic for losing a fight if it didn't carry deeper significance? Every other boss (secret superbosses included) has simply presented you with the standard death screen when you lose a fight, but the cutscene that takes place seems to build further on the implications of the Versus XIII lore colliding with the KH universe.
I’ve always loved your breakdown videos! I’ve been waiting for this one too! Thank you so much for the consistent quality content. Any chance on doing Lingering Will or Eraqus from BBS? 🤔
I think that Yozora either gave up his true heart and/or appearance to play the reapers game or someone did to him what Xehanort did to Terra in BBS. However I think his will is so strong that he maintains control of himself even though his appearance changed. That would explain the 2 eye colors.
I'm noticing that yozora is actually one of the few og kingdom hearts characters that is left-handed. Ven was also supposed to be left-handed if we notice his grip in the bbs and secret movies...but i dunno why he is right-handed in-game... Yeah i know yozora used his bowgun on his right hand but his sword attacks are left-handed.
How can a video game character ever understand reality? "None of this..makes sense to me". Bio-Roxas, you nailed it. Kingdom Hearts is a video game in Yozora's world. And Sora can't even begin to comprehend that. Calling it now.
Sora: he's (Roxas)sora he's (vanitas)sora he's (data)sora she's (xion)sora He's (ventus) probably sora are there any more sora's out there? MOM: hello Sora:🖕😡🖕
There are many character who mirror Sora in some way, among them Includes: Riku, Roxas, Ventus, Vanitas, Xion, Neku & even Master Xehanort. Yozora seems to be the latest revealed one.
I just had a horrible thought yesterday as I was going to sleep, what if we have it all wrong. Yozora wants to save Sora because his physical body is held in captivity by the Master of Masters, who needs his soul which is in the Final World for some nefarious goal as well.
There is away I found out how to knock yozora armor without taking damage period. I am not sure if it is consistent but so far I think it works. What I do is right as he starts scanning I glide on the outside of his rang but what I do is air step towards him from the outside of the scanner & not going directly through it. For some reason it doesn't damage Sora if you air step through the corner of the attack then quickly punish him stopping the attack allowing you to get a opening. After I punish that attack I air step down to him to get a free combo because if you don't he will do the laser attack after. I have been wanting to upload a video showing this trick but think it might be useless but it does stop it quick and he can't continue it either.
"First attack we're gonna be looking at is a beam barrage..." You're wrong man, I'm pretty sure his first attack is summoning a disco ball and wrecking Sora into Oblivion
@@funk-masterflex2796 That happened to me a lot during my practice. I finally beat the guy. on proud at level 99, but I did it. Still feel accomplished. Despite the difficulty, he is a very fun boss.
@@robTCGZ I was finally able to down him on standard mode, and it is a great feeling when he finally goes down. The times where he starts with the disco ball though are just overpowered.
To be honest, Yozora's offensive style is similar to Sword Art Online II- Phantom Bullet arc, Gun Gale Online's weapon class, gun and sword Kirito used in the Bullet of Bullets... (But my view it is how he holds his weapon and how he fights). It would have been a great form change or class to use if you beat him... Overall great analysis breakdown for this secret boss! So the game can actually have a bad ending for once (slightly)...
I feel like it'll be revealed that the reason yozora is able to steal the keyblade is because he used to be a wielder himself aka the Khux player. We know the player melted into a new heart again after dark road due to nomura. However, we dont know where they are now
I don't think Sora and Yozora actually fight and its a "dream" since at the opening of KH4 sora wakes up in quadratum and it doesn't matter if you win or not Yozora wakes up in both. So I would assume they both wake up at the same time.
good job dude. Such a good fight
I really appreciate your input and help with this breakdown man! ^^
If you guys aren’t subbed to Will, why the hell not 👀
@@celestialsentinel12 same and i watched all of the iterations of his yozora fights already

How about night Soras?
Nah don’t worry
They were harmed after
No one really goes over that Yazora does something that has so far been impossible in the lore of the series. He steals, albeit temporarily, a keyblade.
For real, the one guy who has successfully *stolen* a keyblade, and no one talks about how insane that feat is.
@@aguywithgames3135 I know right?
@Wanderingsage7 Oh my god, how that never crossed my mind is beyond me. Maybe it's because I'm too desensitized to be shocked that anybody can get a Keyblade. xD
Sora stole riku's keyblade though.
@@TuhinNahid The first game had 2 keyblade and the characters said there are many more keyblade wielders too sooo
*Has to fight Yozora multiple times to make this video*
Bio-Roxas: "What a pain.."
"Yara yara daze"
Bio is a Jojo confirmed
Something to note about the fake outs - when Yozura appears directly in front of Sora, that indicates a takeout. Only when Yozura changes where he appears (to the left or right) of Sora, that indicates him coming in to actually attack. You can see this more clearly if you stand still during his fakeout attacks instead of moving about the arena
Fgcu
Does anybody have time to notice that difference? It happens within a split second.
Btw for "holds his sword backwards" you can say reverse grip, I believe that's the official term of that style of attacking or stance
That's a much better way of saying that haha Thanks!
How many Soras were harmed in the making of this video?
LOTS maybe idk
...yes
Yes
The guy above you says no Soras were hurt.
@@DissedRedEngie lies!!!!!!

@@Jeptheplay this is the fight to really get the player's skills in gear, both defense and offensively, once learning all his moves like flashcards, I dominated him on Critical Mode
Actually being aggressive seems like a bad move in this fight. Learning his attacks and counter-attacking when you know he has an easy opening is the only way to beat this guy on harder difficulties. If you don't know the punish for a move just wait until he starts another one.

Fun Fact: the way Yozora's fighting style is a reference to a rebellion or a Pirate 😅 we had a discussion about it in ur Discord
If you shotlock with ultima weapon during the first tractor beam attack and use it immediately, the first 3 hits will break armor and the last 2 will damage him normally. He is also opened for you to combo him.
Oh really?? Thanks for pointing that out!

Sora gets L'cie'd. Cause he completed his Focus. He even had a Focus Gauge.
Staphhhh
A world taking place in the ruins of Cocoon or Gran Pulse would actually be kind of cool. If they open up ruined Cocoon a bit and remove some hallways it could be a great world. A place like new Bodhum would fit perfectly in a Kingdom Hearts game. Maybe Sora would have to use the power of awakening to unfreeze Vanille and Fang.
There are so many Soras now. Yozora is probably the latest one.
He's just the latest model 😂
Lumina Rose Would you like to visit my Channel & see the latest video? It has a KH feel to it, I’m sure you’ll like it.
@@soralight_x hmm sure why not
@@soralight_x well I checked it out and it's pretty good. you like a lot of games that I do😊
@@Lumina_Rosa Sure do, but Kingdom Hearts Tops them all. It is my favorite series & Sora is my All Time Favorite character, he's the Best! 👍 I'm always happy to make New Friends, my friends are my power. 😊
Theory: Luxord is from Verum Rex and was a spy for Yozora to see what is going on in the other world just in case.
I would say his stolen keyblade looks more like the parts of the key that Riku and Sora use in their combined attack
Yeah all three kind of share that flowy/wing kind of aesthetic!
The scene when Sora turns to ice is actually reminiscent of something that occurs in Final Fantasy XIII. In FFXIII, characters were prone to turning into crystal statues under certain circumstances, and Final Fantasy XV/Versus XIII was actually originally supposed share in the same lore. Therefore, it's widely believed that it isn't ice, but crystal that Sora becomes encased in, making it another Final Fantasy nod.

While there are some restrictions as its still a video game, but I do want his boss attacks to be part of his movement. I just hope that he doesn’t disappoint in terms of overall story like Lingering Will did in Remind.
Your asking for to much he will be nerfed! And you will only be able to do a fraction of what is being displayed here in this fight 😂
15:08 I noticed when the orbs condense into a big one, Oathkeepers fly out of the orbs
i think that was the keyblade that sora was using at the time, but if it isnt its super interesting
It depends on what key he stole.
"I heard the keyblade can open all sorts of locks"
I was waiting for this! Yozora is super interesting, I can't wait to see more of him in future games! I haven't made it to Yozora yet, but when I do I will definitely use this breakdown as a guide!
Wooow great breakdown here !
Yozora is a true warmachine and his moveset definitely looks similar to Noctis. Nomura's revenge is very powerful. Nomura is the real Lingering Will.

Woah Woah Woah !!!
I'm not ready for this...
Yozora's desperation move is super reminiscent of an AR field or one of those base landscapes used during video game development.
One thing I like that Yozora does during his fight is that he only DMs once, once. Because I will freely admit that 2FM superbosses spammed their DMs way too much.
I think he’ll trigger it twice if you take too long 🤔 but I agree that the DM doesn’t trigger nearly as much as KH2’s superbosses thank god xD
Thanks for all of this I love your break downs
The last thing, about the "an oath to return" part, reminds me of a line in the Japanese version of Don't Think Twice
"it's not a promise, it's an Oath"
I wonder if this same distinction is made with that end scene.
Also, the music for this fight is so damn good. Shimomura, if she composed it, has hit another one out of the park.

Me neither!!
I knowing that you can force out an opening from the Keyblade Stealing Grab attack makes me so happy, thanks a lot for this
Great video dude. I can't imagine how many takes this took. You were nearing death in nearly all the footage, so I can only assume at least 20.
The amount of little details in the attack animations of KH is absolutely phenomenal. I would LOVE to see a breakdown of more KH boss fights just so we can appreciate the little details. -I'd totally be a Patreon patron for that too- !
Its amazing all the work you did here
Thanks for the analysis man😍😍🙌🏼🙌🏼
This gotta be one of favourite boss fight in the whole series I love his background love his music and his attacks
Also a tip if anyone need it when Yozora doing the barrage of laser attack he followed a strict pattern as in he can do teleports from the middle and then the side and he can do this attack during any of three barrage of laser attack
BTW his double blue laser attack after the double red laser attackthere's a chance to attack him using flow motion.
Something to mention while i personally fought yozoro, when he does those fake out attacks in 16:40, 17:20, and in 22:30 he will always have 5 "attack attempt" (where he dashes or flips at you making a real or fake attack), 3 of which are fake and 2 are real. if you can count the attacks he does that, you can predict when his next attack is real, particularly after dodging/blocking the first real attack.

You have to dodge when he teleports, then dodge again straight into attack when he returns.
Wish you mentioned this being "nomuras revenge" on ffxv versus xiii as noctis caelum means night sky and same for yozora and how verum rex means true king really good breakdown though keep it up 👍👍
Great content as always
the frenzied sword combos that yozora does looks similar to the middle of Lingering wills/Terra's Ars Solum attack
A bit.
Probably just me, but the way Yozora fights feels fundamentally similar to Xigbar. Both use gravity shifting abilities, teleport all the time (which I know isn't new to KH bosses at all, as many of them do it especially those in the Organization) and both have ranged weapons. Just Yozoras is a crossbow and Xigbars is a gun. But both also use space warping powers to change the trajectory of their shots as well.
Many have probably noticed that, but it was the first time I've really seen Yozoras fight and it seems very similar to Xigbar at times.
Also has a lot of moves from Zexion’s Re:COM fight for some reason! Like stealing powers, the vacuum that sucks you in, even Yozora jumping down on the dome of data with his sword is a Zexion move.
no no, i believe the ending where you lose is when he literally emptying 2 clip of a pistol at you while you are getting crystalize
So why does Yozora attack Sora if he's trying to "save him?" lol
notice the entire fight Yozora is using Skills and attacks to Capture sora
@@millionshadesofdarkness2165 Good eye on that. I now realize how "capture-like" his moves were after some reflection. Really nice touch to the battle and what Yozora is capable of.
My best guess is that Yozora believes the heart of the girl he's trying to save (also named Sora) is inside our Sora. He views Sora as something akin to how we see Heartless; when we defeat one, we set the heart they'd stolen for themselves free. He's trying to save the girl, and he believes our Sora has stolen her heart like a Heartless would. So, when Sora crystallizes, Yozora's determination is solidified; he will save her, but he's not quite sure how to get her heart out of Sora.
That is, he assumes her heart is inside Sora; we know that's probably not the case, but somebody put him up to this and convinced him pretty thoroughly.
Something interesting is that the pyramid attack Yozora uses is that it kinda reminds of the yellow stun shields in FF7. Please forgive me if I got the name wrong I only played FF7 remake and the beginning of the original.
Dang bio you really put alot of work into this great job
Sadly i still cannot watch this glorious breakdown. I still need to beat the data org and would like to experience this fight personally myself. the best i can do is leave you a like for support
Did you beat them yet?
@@taffmeister584 not even close.
This is the first time someone brought up the KH1 smoke at the end of the cutscenes! We've essentially gone full circle.
When I’m up against the tractor beam that steals the kupo coin I like to wait until the end of his 3rd beam and cast Thundaga which creates an opening (Gotta use airstep in order to get to him before he lands)
Also, Young Xehanort said that he was from a video game when he threw Sora into the Gigas mini game
Granted, his abilities would need to be toned down and balanced out damage-wise to make the game even remotely fair for the enemies, but Yozora's kit seems like it could be extremely fun to play with.
You could do something similar to Sora needing to fill up his formchange meters or focus gauge in order to deploy some of his machines, like the ones that trap Sora in a triangular prism or the projector sphere thing that seems to be able to change the gravity of an area (albeit temporarily.)
There's lots of potential for an extremely fun, fast-paced moveset there, and I hope either Yozora becomes playable in the next game or Sora unlocks some similar tricks.
Speaking of...I know this is a point of contention, but I feel like the "bad ending" where you lose to Yozora is the canon ending.
I mean...We know Sora spends some amount of time wandering Shibuya (Quadratum) and Yozora is quite clearly alive and well in those scenes. And, if Sora had simply ended up in The Final World again, wouldn't Riku, Kairi, and the Fairy Godmother have found him when they went searching the place?
I could be missing something...But it strikes me as the most logical to assume the "correct" ending is losing to Yozora. Why even bother animating a wholly unique cinematic for losing a fight if it didn't carry deeper significance?
Every other boss (secret superbosses included) has simply presented you with the standard death screen when you lose a fight, but the cutscene that takes place seems to build further on the implications of the Versus XIII lore colliding with the KH universe.
In the KH3 novel the bad ending is canon. In fact, Yozora strikes Sora so fast with 1 hit, Sora falls not even knowing what just happened.
Finaly another player who knows that its ice that covers sora!!!
A little late to the comment party, but you and Will should collab to do the other data battles as well. Thank you for the content, Bio.
Those data circles/orbs that the Keyblades fly out of at 15:50 look kind of like Dream Portals.
For what it's worth, Yensid mentions in DDD that the Realm of Sleep has a different flow of time than the Realm of Light
Does he? I didn't realize! Thanks for pointing that out.
*Bio-Roxas is about to face Yozora then hots it with the Suite Life of Zack and Cody theme*
I’ve always loved your breakdown videos! I’ve been waiting for this one too! Thank you so much for the consistent quality content. Any chance on doing Lingering Will or Eraqus from BBS? 🤔
I think that Yozora either gave up his true heart and/or appearance to play the reapers game or someone did to him what Xehanort did to Terra in BBS. However I think his will is so strong that he maintains control of himself even though his appearance changed. That would explain the 2 eye colors.
“After dealing a certain amount of damage” the boy can literally use his ‘ultimate attack’ at the very beginning of the fight
I'm noticing that yozora is actually one of the few og kingdom hearts characters that is left-handed.
Ven was also supposed to be left-handed if we notice his grip in the bbs and secret movies...but i dunno why he is right-handed in-game...
Yeah i know yozora used his bowgun on his right hand but his sword attacks are left-handed.
25:00 Technically Verum Rex is a game in the Toy Box. Not Destiny Islands.
Can’t wait for the next Kingdom Hearts Game. Hopefully in March of the 20th anniversary event we will get Kingdom Hearts Verum Rex!
How can a video game character ever understand reality?
"None of this..makes sense to me". Bio-Roxas, you nailed it. Kingdom Hearts is a video game in Yozora's world. And Sora can't even begin to comprehend that. Calling it now.
11:58
You can also use keyblade transformation to break the barriers
Beat him in proud after about like 2 weeks. Never gonna do it in critical, I need to keep some sense of my sanity.
Yozora is officially the coolest character in kingdom hearts. I mean final fantasy!
Sora: he's (Roxas)sora he's (vanitas)sora he's (data)sora she's (xion)sora
He's (ventus) probably sora are there any more sora's out there?
MOM: hello
Sora:🖕😡🖕
There are many character who mirror Sora in some way, among them Includes: Riku, Roxas, Ventus, Vanitas, Xion, Neku & even Master Xehanort. Yozora seems to be the latest revealed one.
@@soralight_x agreed 😂
I just had a horrible thought yesterday as I was going to sleep, what if we have it all wrong.
Yozora wants to save Sora because his physical body is held in captivity by the Master of Masters, who needs his soul which is in the Final World for some nefarious goal as well.
There is away I found out how to knock yozora armor without taking damage period. I am not sure if it is consistent but so far I think it works. What I do is right as he starts scanning I glide on the outside of his rang but what I do is air step towards him from the outside of the scanner & not going directly through it. For some reason it doesn't damage Sora if you air step through the corner of the attack then quickly punish him stopping the attack allowing you to get a opening. After I punish that attack I air step down to him to get a free combo because if you don't he will do the laser attack after. I have been wanting to upload a video showing this trick but think it might be useless but it does stop it quick and he can't continue it either.
6:37 Don't think no one would notice that "wasted" meme!
i have spring break and i can learn to fight yozora rn but i’d rather save my rage for later
6:35 If you look very closely it says wasted lol
This was such a great breakdown
HOLY SHIT, I DIDN'T KNOW YOU COULD DO THAT AT 15:19!!!
I only just realised, at 6:37 you include a wasted death screen from gta
"First attack we're gonna be looking at is a beam barrage..."
You're wrong man, I'm pretty sure his first attack is summoning a disco ball and wrecking Sora into Oblivion
That happened to me a few times too and I just gave up immediately. I feel your pain.
@@funk-masterflex2796 That happened to me a lot during my practice. I finally beat the guy. on proud at level 99, but I did it.
Still feel accomplished.
Despite the difficulty, he is a very fun boss.
@@robTCGZ I was finally able to down him on standard mode, and it is a great feeling when he finally goes down. The times where he starts with the disco ball though are just overpowered.
@@funk-masterflex2796 Agreed. I was never able to figure out how to dodge the gigas. Even after watching video guides, those suckers kept hitting me
Yozora: “So anyways I started blastin..”
To be honest, Yozora's offensive style is similar to Sword Art Online II- Phantom Bullet arc, Gun Gale Online's weapon class, gun and sword Kirito used in the Bullet of Bullets... (But my view it is how he holds his weapon and how he fights). It would have been a great form change or class to use if you beat him...
Overall great analysis breakdown for this secret boss! So the game can actually have a bad ending for once (slightly)...
Ok so the "wild slash" he does during the tractor beam, blue or not, will also steal max hp. Also, it's two slashes down in a cross.
I feel like it'll be revealed that the reason yozora is able to steal the keyblade is because he used to be a wielder himself aka the Khux player. We know the player melted into a new heart again after dark road due to nomura. However, we dont know where they are now
The night world & boss theme is so good
Yozora better end up being a playable character in the next game if he's in it
People in Shibuya are wondering who are those people fighting on the 104 tower
I always thought sora turning to crystal reminded me of xion getting defeated by roxas
I feel like Kairi and Xion shared that crystal effect but Sora's is supposed to be in reference to FF. It's definitely possible though!
I don't think Sora and Yozora actually fight and its a "dream" since at the opening of KH4 sora wakes up in quadratum and it doesn't matter if you win or not Yozora wakes up in both. So I would assume they both wake up at the same time.
Wait wait waut.
Didnt Joshua say something about Matsunae’s name in Final remix? Could Her dreams be whats necessary to find Sora or something?
