@@jonathanwilson1539 I use to think that but after fighting him in kh1 I’d say kh1 sephiroth is easier because of leaf bracer and cure in kh1. If you get hit u can just spam cure and you’ll be fine and it only costs one mana.
@@jR0xas Yeah, I HATED him in KH1 but having leaf bracer and mp rage basically made me invincible the entire time while I can't do that on my kh2 crit save when I fight him as soon as I finish space paranoids 2 (which opens sephiroth) that combo he has is deadly and he can just teleport right next to you and do it, he can do that in kh1 also but in kh2 thats a guaranteed death on no second chance and once more files.

KH critical modes are as hard or harder than FromSoft games. I don’t say this with any bias - Sekiro is one of my favorite games ever. KH challenge modes are fucking brutal.
@@schmutzonya5659 i find kh2 harder just cause it’s so much faster. The pace of the combat is in your hands in the fromsoft games, you can create distance and think whenever you want for the most part. In this the enemies and bosses are on your ass whenever they wanna be.
Just beat the fight now at level 1. Wow, I am seriously impressed that you were able to avoid that slash that he does in his third phase when he glides at you quickly. That move killed me a lot.
You are literally the best KH player I've ever come accross. I've watched almost all your videos and sometimes come back to this one because it's just so badass. Keep it up!
You don't have to but if you haven't played the final mix version before it's definitely nice to have. It's also nice having all the kh games besides ddd and 0.2 on one disc. There are of course issues in the port such as saving crashing etc but overall it's pretty fun to play especially with the non existent load times. I'd say if you already have a PS4 you might want to get it but it's up to you
All those Sephiroth afraid of Sora now makes sense. Yeah, he's holding back, but the fact that Sora can defeat him on level 1 at highest difficulty with stock weapon and not taking any damage is insane.
Imagine how I felt after taking an entire year to beat critical on my first play through ever. Sephiroth took me 3 days to beat (level 99) when I first started against him. Took me two weeks to beat him at level 1 when it took me two years to beat the game at THAT level.
question, did the ps4 version of 2.5 further remix One winged angel? it sounds different than the ps2 version and PS3 2.5 if i remember correctly (it has been a while since i played the ps3 2.5)
3:40 if you didn’t used that ether, you could have boasted that this was a no item fight as well. You didn’t even use your MP after you recovered your MP.
Same here lol, when I beat him It felt too easy since I had ultama weapon as well so I felt extremely guilty like I should’ve been playing on proud mode or something
I was at... like, 50 or so, I want to say, on Easy, waaay back when. And I couldn't figure out the timing to blocking ANYTHING, so I'd gone through the whole game never blocking, just dodge-rolling. it was an experience.
I remember the dayz before 2 FM came to UA-cam. When this was the hardest boss in KH2. But now? He's the easiest superboss...and the only one that you fight just once
Ooft. That must suck. What are you using and equipping? Sephy isnt that hard in kh2fm nor the vanilla kh2, lingering will on the other hand however is way more tougher than sephiroth.
It doesn’t mean you’re bad at the game bro, we all got our asses beat by Sephiroth

Try to replicate exactly what WillJV2 did on the video, but do use the RC because it's easier than timing the dodge roll, and you'll see how easy and satisfying that match turns out :)
In critical mode you get “finishing plus” and a few other abilities at level one, which allows you to pull off 2 finishers in quick succession. You get the ability in proud and lower in kh2 as well but you get them through level ups and not at the beginning of the game.
Currently in a LV1 run critical mode after seeing Sora in Smash and dying alot in the run i had but fun i was thinking beating Sephiroth for funsies till i have to get 3rd visit to Radiant Garden which is a pain once im finish with the run im in i can just finish the Cavern of the Rememberance puzzle to Data Org XIII then try to fight Lingering Will (SPOILERS) a.k.a Terra which im going to have alot of raging and reaction/reflex to do since i don't have a Negative Combo wish me luck
@@blackghostcat The weakness of the extremely fast and teleporting opponents is just close quarters combat like 2D street brawl, apparently. Doing that will limit their movements so therefore, great strategy.
I feel like I'm the only one who uses the reaction button. Everyone I watch do this fight always dodge rolls. I can't get that timing down. If I don't use the reaction, I will get hit.
Hey Will, Awesome video! I'm replaying KH2.5 right now. I was wondering if you could do a tutorial of how you accomplished this, even include which abilities to choose and not to choose, items, timing, etc. I saw your other tutorial video and it was very well explained, if you could do the same for this fight, Lingering Will, and Sephiroth for KH1 that would be much appreciated! You definitely earned a subscriber from me :)
Ever heard of bonus levels. Theres about 50-60 of them throughout the main game via story bosses. Have you even played kh2fm or even kh2 for that matter.

A little over a year after Kingdom Hearts 2 released, an updated version of it called Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix released exclusively in Japan. It added a whole bunch of new content, including new abilities. One of these new abilities was dodge roll. It wasn't until 2014 when "Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 Remix" released that Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix became available worldwide.
Generally max out all of your drive form groth abilities. Dont use too many abilities as some are variations of other abilities. In kh2fm there are some new abilities added to soras arsenal such as aerial dive and a variation of sliding dash but you can guard as well as magbet burst. Dont use too many combo plus abilities as it may trigger his revenge value to counterattack. Explosion and guard break are very useful combo finishers. Dont use magnet burst but use aerial spiral. If your stuck on mp regen use 4 full bloom plus' but ultima is fine. I use decisive punpkin for combo boost. When sephy is low ho he goes berserk mode and does attacks faster so be on guard on top of his meteor shower. In order to dodge it double jump and glide the back of the arena or float down by just holding square whilst in the air but make sure you double jump unless if you want to get hit, alternatively you can dodge roll spam as you have a lot of invincibility frames.
So character's main level is 1 but the form levels aren't. So you are technically not a level 1 character. 🤯 also you did take 7 points of damage as well.
I really love thid fight in Kh2... I spent hours and hours. And guys... I'm dumb I know... I defeated Sephiroth while all the Drive were at Level 1. God I hated the "heartless Angel"Attack... I couldn't reach... But in Kh 2 Final Mix... they debuffed my guy...it was easy to defeat him... :(
Just try to dodge and block more. Remember to also take advantage of the invulnerability frames while doing certain moves, for example, you can stop mid-way while doing the Trinity Limit to use an item to recover health/MP (As you should know, you can't take damage whatsoever while doing a Limit move) You can also pause buffer (Aka, pause the game constantly) to see what move you are going to deal with to react accordingly far mor easily.
First, get Once More, Second Chance, and Leaf Bracer. These three abilities will save your life. Next, level up High Jump to level 3 and Aerial Dodge to level 3. With both of these, you can stop his Heartless Angel attack. Third, level up Dodge Roll to level 3 so you can roll away or dodge his attacks much easier. Quick Run is optional, your choice. Lastly, just memorize his attacks and you should be good.
If anyone is wondering where cloud and sephiroth went, they went to Smash Ultimate.
As of today, Sora too!
and sora went to follow brother cloud and uncle sephi
This aged incredibly well
And Sora followed
Oh no they went to a lot of other stops on the way

I just love how anticlimactic it is, it just slowly floats at him and he goes "oof"
Actually it’s the shadow flare
Man, the dodging the rc, using kingdom key, and even the upper slash setting up the horizontal slash kill. A lot of swag for all of this, nicely done

All those Sephiroth afraid of Sora now makes sense. Yeah, he's holding back, but the fact that Sora can defeat him on level 1 at highest difficulty with stock weapon and not taking any damage is insane.
And to think you didn’t even need that Ether at the end there. Otherwise you could add No Items to the video description haha.
yea but that would be inconsistent

Here after the Sephiroth in Smash reveal
Sephiroth: "Give in to the Dark!"
Sora: *rejects Spheres of Darkness every time*
Sephiroth: T H A T S E N O U G H!!!
It was this challenge that made me fear the Sephiroth boss fight again.
Sephiroth: "Show me your strength"
SoraJV2: "Aite, bet"
Sora: gets rekt by sephiroth’s blade dash.
question, did the ps4 version of 2.5 further remix One winged angel? it sounds different than the ps2 version and PS3 2.5 if i remember correctly (it has been a while since i played the ps3 2.5)
none of the soundtracks are changed in the PS4 port. They are all the same as the PS3 versions.
oh ok lol
“How’d you like that?”

Wouldn't sweet memories be a better restriction than kingdom key?
It does the same amount of damage as kingdom key on level 1. I have a video comparing keyblade damage on my channel that shows that.

Watching your camera get trapped in a weird angle at 3:35 -only lvl 1 crit players know how HORRIFYING that is

I remember the dayz before 2 FM came to UA-cam. When this was the hardest boss in KH2.
But now? He's the easiest superboss...and the only one that you fight just once
beginner hard
normal really hard
Critical pain in the ass hard
Proud difficulty has left the chat
You make it look so easy
it is tbh
It's not that it's hard but it gets tedious cause you're just constantly whacking away at his health bar
What ability is that when he guards and then counters? I'm guessing counterguard but not sure
*Decend...Heartless Ang-AH OOF AG AH*
I just have one question, do you have to roll under every time he uses flash? Is it not possible to do the reaction command?
You can do the RC, it is just cooler not to; it is just to flex on him.
The little balls of light that orbit your Drive number cease to exist at 8? That sucks...
hey is it possible to beat sephiroth with level 1 growth abilities?
I can’t even beat him at level 64 on beginner 😂
Ooft. That must suck. What are you using and equipping? Sephy isnt that hard in kh2fm nor the vanilla kh2, lingering will on the other hand however is way more tougher than sephiroth.

Here because sora is in smash
He always gets me in the last phase on lvl 1 but he's no match for the actual hardest boss on lvl 1... Hades escape.

I've been trying to beat him at level 1 but his teleport attacks seem random. What was your strategy?
Try to walk to the edge of the area and face the rest of it
@@blackghostcat
The weakness of the extremely fast and teleporting opponents is just close quarters combat like 2D street brawl, apparently.
Doing that will limit their movements so therefore, great strategy.
Watching this makes me wish they put an option in the game where you could fight Sepiroth anytime. Just like terra and organization members.
You can leave a separate save file for that :D modern problems require modern solutions
That's Insane... Lol
Nicely done hahaha
And I was happy when I beat him at Lvl 66 after 1 week of trying
i beat him with rumbling rose lvl 57 in proud
Sephiroth is much harder on the first Kingdom Hearts.
cant wait for this
So you need tp adjust the camera huh? I mean most of time i die its because i got slash from the dead angel,
How come the HP lvl is higher than mine on critical level 60 if you're level 1 ? Don't get it sorry
In KH2, HP increases after certain boss battles, not through level up. So someone playing at level 1 will have the same HP as someone at max level
How focused was this player?!
Here I am struggling at level 50 crit while you made it look easy at level 1 crit lol
Your ap still goes up with no xp?
HE'S IN SMAAAAAAAAASH
And that's why I love this fight
The real challenge will be no abilities, Kingdom Key, level 1, critical, no damage
Looking back on the secret bosses we've had in KH I'd argue that KH2/FM Sephiroth is by far the easiest one.
Idk man, does this include Dark Inferno?
Kuroyuki ESO No, I think of him as an optional boss, not a secret boss
On lvl 1? Not by a long shot.
Sephiroth best KH boss.
Now do no magic and no jumping

Yes.
