Thanks for the observation. You forgot the yojimbo in ffx2...he reduces hp and mp of gullwings to 1... Btw..I never saw ginnems yojimbo cast zanmato. For many years I played FFX, every time it overdrive it just cast wakizashi
Zanmato is the real challenge. Training Yojimbo, using him and his move and pleasing him to use it automatically. THAT's the real challenge and the real "Max stat" that matters not that grid max stats.
@@ViniciusLCH Train Yojimbo till he does an automatic zanmato. Once he does an auto you can give him lesser gil to see when he does it again, eventually if trained well and trust is high you can just summon and he'll do the move against any dark aeon but you gotta be patient. Mine is perfect auto
@@ViniciusLCH Late but - Turbo gives a higher chance - Grind compatibility with him. You get that when he uses his katana and zanmato - Pay him a good amount of money (130k is a good one, since it works on thresholds, not based on the exact amount given) - You do not want an automatic move with Yojimbo against aeons, since it's impossible to get zanmato out of it
My first experience with Final Fantasy 10, I was visiting a friend who had his nephew over playing FFX on his PS2. He was stuck on the Sin Boss fight, the one on the ship that gets you inside of Sin to the end of the game. No matter what he did, he just couldn't win. I was watching, and asked if I could have a go. I had some knowledge of the game, but never played it before, but I knew of Yojimbo from the guide book my friend had. I wanted to see what the summons looked like having only play a little of FF7 and FF8 prior, I didn't have the patience back then to play those games. They gave me one go to try and beat Sin. I brought Yuna in, summoned Yojimbo, and gave him all of his gill... And Yojimbo Zanmato Sin! haha. Funny thing is, the gill won was about the same amount as what I paid Yojimbo to attack. After that, my friend let me start my first and only playthrough on his console. I brought my memory card over and borrowed his copy of the game, but I would play at his for the story parts. We 100% the game, beating all Dark Aeons, all monster arena battles , I even used Yojimbo a few times to one hit kill a few bosses for fun after beating them without Yojimbo. I also played FF7 with him, 99% that game on my first and only playthrough too. Good times.
@@shizukagozen777 Please reread my original message. I never said anything about being proud I killed a strong boss with Zanmato, I said it was funny because it was literally the first time I ever played the game, and by the draw of fate, my one and only move in that battle was a Zanmato from Yojimbo. When I played the game proper on my first playthough, I only ever used Yojimbo for fun, since by that point, I could beat every boss without using Aons.
@@IGLXenix Your comment is pretty clear: you said that the kid was stuck so you used your knowledge of FFX to help him and spent all his money on Yojimbo to use Zanmato to defeat Sin, "haha". If that's not being proud, idk what that is... Anyway.
@@shizukagozen777 haha. maybe your right, or maybe it was funny that I, a kid compared to the nephew beat sin on his first try. Regardless on how cheesy Zanmato is, I only knew Yojimbo was cool looking, I'm not sure if I even knew about the Zanmato. I was a kid at the time, and not all that great with my attention span. in any case, I am proud I got one up on my big brother's best friend. (i.e. the nephew.)
@@IGLXenix There's nothing to be proud of since you had read the guide book. Come on man, you obviously knew about Zanmato, no one would summon Yojimbo as their first aeon and spend all their money on him without knowing about Zanmato... Good for you if you're happy with that, I obviously disagree with you but really good for you because we aren't going to find an agreement on this one so I'm not going to insist more. 😄
It’s weird that the battles against Dark Valefor, Dark Anima and the Dark Magus Sisters have the regular battle music and the others don’t. The battle against Dark Shiva is just the boss battle theme while the theme for Dark Bahamuts is Challenge which also plays when you fight Yunalesca. Run is the theme used for the battle against Dark Ifrit and Dark Yojimbo. The track Leap Into The Dark is what plays during the Dark Ixion fights
Yeah they just rushed they boss fights in for the European releases without making it feel any more than a glorified extra endgame. Did appreciate the extra cutscenes though
Yojimbo will Zanmato a lot if you choose option 3 when you meet him. NEVER summon him without using him, that will make him lose affinity for Yuna and also try not to let him get killed in battle too much.
@@fenrir517 actually it is legit. If Yoji likes you enough. Which if you know how to track his affection meter is really easy to do, he'll Zanmato for anything above 99 Gil. It's also possible to make him Auto Zanmato as long as he likes you enough.
J-Sama1990 Or it’s for people don’t want to waste weeks of time grinding for perfect stats, just so they have bragging rights or whatever. I got shit to do, so if there’s an opportunity for me to destroy the hardest enemies in the game with one hit, i’ll take it.
YES! But He RARELY MANAGES, a example would be against dark Valefor of how my yojimbo had like 2000 hp left. OMG And in the end it was great because he died so I resetted the whole thing, great right?
Yojimbo is technically one of if not the most powerful beings in the game. His best move can insta kill everything in the game, no matter what it is. Only with the exception of fights with different stages, it’ll just make the fight go into the next stage unless it’s already on the last stage, then it will insta kill. (Example: Lady Yunalesca)
Don't use this until: You know what? I have the recommended armour, celestial weapons, 255 of everything, and still can't beat those crap. I just have to Zamnato
Honestly, I hate those dark aeons being that powerful. I mean getting hit for 99,999. Just a Total BS and stupid Idea for a boss fight. Maxing every single stat does not make the game fun, plus the rewards suck for the level of difficulty.

Yeah but, whats really cheating and unfair is getting hit for 99,999. Plus without insane grinding and the proper setup along with Damage Limit Break those Dark Aeons are damn near impossible. And I really don't want to be that powerful and maxed out to the point that the game is no longer fun just to be able to fight them. So I say... to hell with playing fair! Thank You Yojimbo for being so OP! I will gladly make you a Millionaire!
i read somewhere, prob on a youtube comment, that Yojimbo telegraphs what he's going to do after you pay him. can't remember what he does for the main three moves but he always nods when doing Zanmato, and ever since then my enjoyment of anticipating what he'll do has been ruined. So thanks whoever told people that. I really wish I didn't know that. anyway great vid
I would say it's very specific to most FF games where you have to fight a super-tough badass boss (usually optional) but Squaresoft would also leave a tiny backdoor to let you get an exploit and wipe them with a single hit. I remember very similar strategies against ruby and emerald in FF7 as well as omega in FF8.

For anyone who haven't played this game and just saw instant wins here, Dark Ixion and Dark Yojimbo have multiple instances to fight them which doesn't allow Yojimbo's chances to do his Zanmato on all of them. Dark Ixion has 2 instances and Dark Yojimbo has either 4 or 5 instances !!!!
I remember when I was a child and didn't max all the stats out that I relied on Zanmato to kill each dark aeon. The fight with dark yojimbo was really frustrating and I even managed to get 4 Zanmatos in a row! However, 5 fights are actually required to completely beat this aeon (you must enter one of the rooms in the cave specifically to get the fifth battle)

Last year I got a new console for the first time in 20+years and got the remastered FFX and FFX-2 along with a couple other games. I hadn't watched any YT vids on these games, so imagine my surprise a few months ago when I played through FFX, attempted to reenter Besaid in chapter 5 and found a bad priest with a Dark Valefor waiting. I was only able to beat Valefor and Ixion with party members. I accidentially discovered Zanmato worked when I summoned Yojimbo accidentially while facing the Dark Magus Sisters and he just did that attack first time. My thing is that I have loved this game for decades, but I don't want to grind for 40+ hours. I'll grind here and there throighout the game but I get too bored with it after a while. Of the 2 playthroughs I did on PS2, one was over 90 and the secind was over 100. My recent playthroigh was over 110. It's not like I don't play. Maybe it's just for more hardcore gamers? I'm like a hobby gamer- there are a few newer and some older games I love to play through when I can. My first games were on Atari, so I do go back a ways lol. Recently I started watching X and X-2 playthroughs and a lot of people condemn using Zanmato. I didn't think of it as a cheat or lazy at all; you can't beat this game if you're lazy lol. I thoight it was an easy berry provided by the devs for once; after all, side quests like the effing chocobo runs, monster arena and Omega Ruins and a few of the boss fights are challenging.
Lazy? Cheat? Is a part of the game created and included in it by the same people who allow them to spend four full days of their lives grinding spheres. They just mad they didn't think of it before 😏
Notes: You have to kill the Dark Ixion twice to fully defeat it. You have to defeat Dark Yojimbo five consecutive times to fully defeat it. Otherwise he will respawn again in this area
How the fuck am I suppose to defeat dark bahahut if he one hits yojimbo and if I get the first turn with yojimbo, yojimbo does an auto hit that's weak as fuck.
I beat all the dark aaons legit, but by the time I got to Nemesis and Penance I just wanted to be fucking done and Zanmato'd their asses. The only aaon that was particularly hard in my opinion was Bahamut because of Impulse, but once you figure out it attacks after 5 hits you work around that.
I just got it on my 3rd or 4th try paying him 8,200 at DV. This is like my 3rd playthrough. Never played the remaster and can’t believe I forgot you needed all the destruction sphere chests for anima. Yojimbo coming in clutch so far. I was thinking about just starting over. I’m at 30 hours and from other things I saw about dark aeons it would probably take much longer than that to lvl up to beat them. But just beat DV and I don’t even have ultima or double cast yet. Lol. Killed shiva too. About 3 -4 tries again. Payed him $8,200.
Just needed to Zanmato Dark Valefor fortunately it worked on the 2nd try. I didn't forget the sphere just accidentally entered a cutscene to early and thus missed to do it I'm grateful Yojimbo exists 😅
@@bjornquack1041 yeah. I’m a little bummed I had to go back. I also had to use it on dark bahamut to get the sun crest or whatever for tidus. Payed him $8,200 again and got it on my first try. I mean there’s all kinds of crazy monsters to lvl up and beat in the arena So it’s not too bad. Still have some dark aeons to find and beat too. I didn’t even know that was a thing. I never used yojimbo much in my other play throughs My one buddy was like. Yo man. Yojimbo is the best and when I got him I was like. This dude SUCKS. He looks really cool though. Lol. Turns out he’s ridiculously OP. Just random
Yojimbo " I will one hit everything. " Odin and Gilgamesh " Are we a joke to you? " Odin " Unlike you Yojimbo I will do it for free. Don't go making profit of my signature move, Yojimbo." Gilgamesh " Odin didn't you died in Final Fantasy 8 by some guy years ago ? " Odin " Oh shoot, I did." Gilgamesh " As Odin said I will do my survice for free, Yojimbo. " Yojimbo " Don't make use it on you Gilgamesh and Odin." Gilgamesh and Odin " Who's going to pay you to one hit us ? " Yojimbo " The developers of the game." Gilgamesh " At least I'm still in one piece, unlike Odin."
Ha when she summons him and stands there but it looks like the others ran the wrong way lol Telling you when this first came out on PS2 and you saw this summons entrance my god it looked amazing heck even Bahamuts entrance the clouds and the motion blur. The PS2s emotion engine really did make games look good as it would add moving trees and leaves it was that good of a chip
Yeah, that's how I had to beat them.... So... much.... Gil.... Especially, since you basically have to double the amount you use and then increase it by 1 every time to guarantee Yojimbo does Zan-Mato.
when training yojimbo there are conditions you can clear that give you better chances. Loyalty, Friendship, avoiding death, giving him the amount of money he's worth consecutively and then obviously selecting the strongest enemies in his recruitment, now he's pretty much zanmatoing only.
@@shizukagozen777 Goodness but I’m glad I beat Dark Ifrit and Dark Ixion with mostly Tidus doing the hits with a celestial weapon because that’s all I had going for that time and too much auto life’s once I learned that for The characters (Xbox one X 2023).

I would say it's very specific to most FF games where you have to fight a super-tough badass boss (usually optional) but Squaresoft would also leave a tiny backdoor to let you get an exploit and wipe them with a single hit. I remember very similar strategies against ruby and emerald in FF7 as well as omega in FF8.
There's no such a thing in several other FF games, or I completely missed those techniques, idk.
Well done Zanpakuto

I paid him 20 and still got it!
For anyone who haven't played this game and just saw instant wins here, Dark Ixion and Dark Yojimbo have multiple instances to fight them which doesn't allow Yojimbo's chances to do his Zanmato on all of them. Dark Ixion has 2 instances and Dark Yojimbo has either 4 or 5 instances !!!!
I remember when I was a child and didn't max all the stats out that I relied on Zanmato to kill each dark aeon. The fight with dark yojimbo was really frustrating and I even managed to get 4 Zanmatos in a row! However, 5 fights are actually required to completely beat this aeon (you must enter one of the rooms in the cave specifically to get the fifth battle)
You can do zanmato on all instances, it's just highly unlikely. It is doable though.
Good days when Pay to win was different from today
That's essentially how I killed all these megabosses. I'm not a fan of grinding.
Heh!
Is it me or is the color-contrast in this video unusually high?
YEVON LOVES YOU AND WANTS A RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU HE IS THE ONLY WAY TO BE A SUMMONER, ETERNAL CALM AND THE FARPLANE SIMPLY SAY IN YOUR HEART WITH FAITH,'' LORD YEVON IF YOU ARE WHO YOU SAY YOU ARE PLEASE REVEAL THE TRUTH TO ME- I REPENT OF MY SINSPAWN AND ASK THAT YOU WOULD COME INTO MY LIFE, PRAISE BE TO YEVON
idk if i wanna be a cheap bastard or not cuz as someone who actually beat them all before i think the dark aeons are annoying
no money no honey
that's what you call pay to win
Last year I got a new console for the first time in 20+years and got the remastered FFX and FFX-2 along with a couple other games. I hadn't watched any YT vids on these games, so imagine my surprise a few months ago when I played through FFX, attempted to reenter Besaid in chapter 5 and found a bad priest with a Dark Valefor waiting.
I was only able to beat Valefor and Ixion with party members. I accidentially discovered Zanmato worked when I summoned Yojimbo accidentially while facing the Dark Magus Sisters and he just did that attack first time.
My thing is that I have loved this game for decades, but I don't want to grind for 40+ hours. I'll grind here and there throighout the game but I get too bored with it after a while. Of the 2 playthroughs I did on PS2, one was over 90 and the secind was over 100. My recent playthroigh was over 110. It's not like I don't play. Maybe it's just for more hardcore gamers? I'm like a hobby gamer- there are a few newer and some older games I love to play through when I can. My first games were on Atari, so I do go back a ways lol.
Recently I started watching X and X-2 playthroughs and a lot of people condemn using Zanmato. I didn't think of it as a cheat or lazy at all; you can't beat this game if you're lazy lol. I thoight it was an easy berry provided by the devs for once; after all, side quests like the effing chocobo runs, monster arena and Omega Ruins and a few of the boss fights are challenging.
Lazy? Cheat? Is a part of the game created and included in it by the same people who allow them to spend four full days of their lives grinding spheres. They just mad they didn't think of it before 😏
@@grazd_a4412 I appreciate that, thank you.
Notes:
You have to kill the Dark Ixion twice to fully defeat it.
You have to defeat Dark Yojimbo five consecutive times to fully defeat it. Otherwise he will respawn again in this area
How come Anima and magus sisters have the generic ass battle music. Way to live up the epic moment of the dark Anima fight.
Would have been cool if every once in a while Dark Eons could somehow counter Zanmato, and have an animation on Yojimbo going like: WTF??
MrGilRoland like FF8 with Odin getting slashed in half by seifer just standing there doing nothing
@@ghostlywinds5334 Oooh yeah I remember that! That was actually really cool!
This is the only way I could defeat all the aeons, I couldn’t beat yojimbo though
So checking the overall cost of taking out each aeon, yojimbo is the cheapest while anima is the most expensive one. Or does the value change?
Pay him enough before hand and and value won matter.
NO BLOODY WAY!!!! For real?!?! That’s right.....to defeat the most powerful of enemies....why didn’t I think of this before?!
Cuz if u do this in normal ways on your PS2 it's so rare to get zanmato abilities even if u pays him 1m gil i've tried this before
@@innakaputra2759 mmhmm
i beat them all with normal tactics ive had this game for years i didint know either
Because it sucks using Zanmato.
LOL THE NAME OF ANIMA IS AnimaAss
Lulu " Let's go".
Auron " Are you sure ? "
Lulu " I changed my mind."
Auron " Yuna, go Yojimbo".
That is not Yojimbo. That is Yojimbop.
That feel. When you can just train yojimbo to do it for free 3/4 times
9:22 ah so he’s the guy we took the Venus Sigil from.
Yeah, I’d summon a dark aeon to if that happened to me.
when you see that head nod is like heaven!
Yojimbo vs gilgamesh?
yojimbo wins because can kill the boss, gilgamesh can not..
Yojimbo is just a dream
Canonically Yojimbo IS Gilgamesh...just under a different alias
@@TheInsider15 really? Didn't know that
@@Abysslover91 It's in the Hildebrand storyline
Yuna: I'm summoning.
Me: _Gets up after my leg gets broken, I have a sword through my heart and my skull has been caved in_ Aight, bet.
The reason why you should farm for Gil instead of AP:
so if I don't catch Sun Sigil at first I can still use Yojimbo on Dark Bahamut...right, right...
Yes
You need fight dark yojimbo 3 or 4 time where the part??? You only fight him 1 time
Dansg08 would like to know your location. Was hoping to see the Aeons chopped in half lol.
How the fuck am I suppose to defeat dark bahahut if he one hits yojimbo and if I get the first turn with yojimbo, yojimbo does an auto hit that's weak as fuck.
I beat all the dark aaons legit, but by the time I got to Nemesis and Penance I just wanted to be fucking done and Zanmato'd their asses. The only aaon that was particularly hard in my opinion was Bahamut because of Impulse, but once you figure out it attacks after 5 hits you work around that.
I just got it on my 3rd or 4th try paying him 8,200 at DV. This is like my 3rd playthrough. Never played the remaster and can’t believe I forgot you needed all the destruction sphere chests for anima. Yojimbo coming in clutch so far. I was thinking about just starting over. I’m at 30 hours and from other things I saw about dark aeons it would probably take much longer than that to lvl up to beat them. But just beat DV and I don’t even have ultima or double cast yet. Lol. Killed shiva too. About 3 -4 tries again. Payed him $8,200.
Just needed to Zanmato Dark Valefor fortunately it worked on the 2nd try. I didn't forget the sphere just accidentally entered a cutscene to early and thus missed to do it I'm grateful Yojimbo exists 😅
@@bjornquack1041 yeah. I’m a little bummed I had to go back. I also had to use it on dark bahamut to get the sun crest or whatever for tidus. Payed him $8,200 again and got it on my first try. I mean there’s all kinds of crazy monsters to lvl up and beat in the arena So it’s not too bad. Still have some dark aeons to find and beat too. I didn’t even know that was a thing. I never used yojimbo much in my other play throughs My one buddy was like. Yo man. Yojimbo is the best and when I got him I was like. This dude SUCKS. He looks really cool though. Lol. Turns out he’s ridiculously OP. Just random
Yojimbo is the hardest to use zanmato you have to face him 5 times and there's a chance he does ambush you need first strike with auron
Yojimbo " I will one hit everything. "
Odin and Gilgamesh " Are we a joke to you? "
Odin " Unlike you Yojimbo I will do it for free. Don't go making profit of my signature move, Yojimbo."
Gilgamesh " Odin didn't you died in Final Fantasy 8 by some guy years ago ? "
Odin " Oh shoot, I did."
Gilgamesh " As Odin said I will do my survice for free, Yojimbo. "
Yojimbo " Don't make use it on you Gilgamesh and Odin."
Gilgamesh and Odin " Who's going to pay you to one hit us ? "
Yojimbo " The developers of the game."
Gilgamesh " At least I'm still in one piece, unlike Odin."
Ha when she summons him and stands there but it looks like the others ran the wrong way lol
Telling you when this first came out on PS2 and you saw this summons entrance my god it looked amazing heck even Bahamuts entrance the clouds and the motion blur. The PS2s emotion engine really did make games look good as it would add moving trees and leaves it was that good of a chip
Yeah, that's how I had to beat them.... So... much.... Gil.... Especially, since you basically have to double the amount you use and then increase it by 1 every time to guarantee Yojimbo does Zan-Mato.
I hate that the aeons don't slice in half like the other enemies.
I was really lucky 14 zanmato's in a row, plus 5 with dark yojimbo, the price is insanity. My Yojimbo also does zanmato without payment :)
how
when training yojimbo there are conditions you can clear that give you better chances. Loyalty, Friendship, avoiding death, giving him the amount of money he's worth consecutively and then obviously selecting the strongest enemies in his recruitment, now he's pretty much zanmatoing only.
BeardsOfWarjard XL I need to beat dark Yojumbo
I aren’t the only one now
I love when Yuna Cheers him sometimes when I summon him and he does Zanmato for free or after a attack.
And that's how Yami Yugi would play FFX...
.
.

Also he wouldn't need to pay him.
Imagine if he did those moves for free :0
😁 i remember playing this so much i was able to beat dark yojimbo the 3 times with just the players - only using aeons to survive his zanmato.
that kill bill transition way dark at 0:14
See the damage output on valefore should be way higher
Im stuck in order to obtain sun crest back then, out of option i OHKO dark bahamut using 1mil bribe yojimbo in order to use zanmato
So you’re telling me you got 5 of the ultimate overdrive on yojimbo 5x times in a row?
Best move in the game so quick and to the point and flashy.
Worst move, made for the weak and the lazy ones.
@@shizukagozen777 Goodness but I’m glad I beat Dark Ifrit and Dark Ixion with mostly Tidus doing the hits with a celestial weapon because that’s all I had going for that time and too much auto life’s once I learned that for The characters (Xbox one X 2023).

With mostly Tidus ?? You barely used the other guys or the aeons ?? 😧

That still sound pretty impressive. 👌
Yojimbo is the only aeon that can beat his dark version all by himself
Or you can beat Dark Yojimbo without using Zanmato. 🤷♀️
When i first saw dark yojimbo i almot got a heart attack
YOJIMBO : MONEY POWER 😎😎😎
Bro i need help do i keep trying to do this on the dark aeon valfore so i can get into the temple so i can get the distruction spher cause i forgot so i can get anima but he just keeps doing wakasashi no matter how much i pay him what do i do
