Those reaction commands make Sora seem like such a confident freaking badass. Like legit cutting through skyscrapers dodging out on enemy abilities, using their own attacks against them, and in general just being a boss.

When I was little I always immediately clicked triangle when Xemnas would jump down the skyscraper, that’s what you did the whole game right? Well when I got older I’m talking 19-20 I wanted to see what would happen if you didn’t click anything for science! You can’t imagine my surprise when the prompts turned into different prompts. I replayed the fight and landed it that time. I literally called my one and only kingdom hearts friend to tell him my discovery, he logged on immediately and tested it out.😂
@@eggsack806 The weapon form changes are nice and all, but a reaction command where we chase Larxene as she zips around and smack her through a wall, or where we knock the young Xehanort's clock's arms backwards and restore the damage that was done to him would have been fucking metal.
I ended up seeing the defend command against Xemnas during my second playthrough of KH2 on proud mode. When I saw it and successfully did the defend command I felt like we were really in deep fighting him that time around, lol
I remember fighting Final Xemnas, and the Reflect part confused me for a bit cause I was too dumb to realize that you had to press both triangle and cross
There's one missing RC in the Zexion fight, which the Ultimania calls "Break" in JP; apparently you have to button mash Struggle really fast (ie. fast enough that it gives you "Break" instead of Reset) to get it and it supposedly deals good damage. I've never actually seen it in action, though… EDIT: Found it being used in JP, but I'm still looking for an English version.
If we look at all this through an in-universe perspective, Sora is literally adapting to everything on the fly, it's like he sees an attack coming and he uses his quick thinking to get out of it or counter it. How is he not a Keyblade master when he does all of these sick dodges and reversals without even needing to stop and think about what he needs to do to win
One time, in the data battle for demyx, I tried to do his reaction command, and it INSTA KILLED ME. Sora didn’t hit him, Demyx hit me and fucking obliterated my whole existence. Never been so salty in my life. Doesn’t help that I hate demyx lol.

If you failed show stealer, Demyx will play a guitar solo instead of the usual melody. Sora will be seen poking on Demyx as if he's seeking his attention but then Demxy will smack Sora upwards (just like how Sora did to Demyx if Show Stealer is successful)
@@Elwood7X If fail while the machine still has some HP, then it will reduce your HP, instant kill, basically if you play Critical and don't have Second Chance on. If it's a timer one, then you die.
He's low health and you can hear Xemnas saying "Can you spare a heart?" Which means he's going to trap Sora and slowly damage him, while you control Riku and try to get to Sora in time to save him. However, the player doesn't have enough health at 5:08 to save Sora and hence will inevitably lose the fight.
Kisuke Urahara larxene clones have to be both receive a certain amount if damage and be next to each other to activate. The other you have to get past water barriers and get close to him while guarding to activate.

@@deltawarrior2323 Aerial Strike, Block (on Sepiroth's fight) and Slicer are my favourites.
Forgot how relentlessly hype The last Xemnas Fight was
I didn't know sora got disarmed in the final xemnas fight. Sweet reaction command
In my opinion KH2 surpasses all games by far, KH3 included. 4:02 alone is the reason.
As good as KH3 and the rest are, KH2 I think will always be my favorite. Unless future game just goes crazy
This is a fact
I like KH1 the most. I'll go now.
@@neptune9647 both are good in their own ways
kh3 is bad tho
@@Cactuardude KH3 bad? Nah. But to each their own.

In Japan, it should be easier since you can just roll between two buttons that doesn't have two other buttons getting in the way
Despite playing the Japanese version I actually have my controls rebound to the English ones due to muscle memory
1:45 forgot Sora did that rawest part of the fight just kicking Xigs laser back at him at damn near light speed crazy mann!

Kh 2 sora has some crazy feats
These reaction commands are so cool. I wish we have a lot more of them in the next game...
Sora was a fucking god at the end of KH2.
He was about to rekt. By Xemnas if not for riku
Tbf, you kinda need to be one to keep up with Xemnas by that point.
Sora is pretty brutal isn't he?
Yeah, and he's not even a darkness guy '-'
@@lightdark3089 yeah

😂😂😂😂😂😂
I got the show stealer command in anti form. Sora taps demyx on the back, and then demyx hits him with his guitar.
kh3 lacking these makes it more nostalgic
Kh3 just piece of shit compare to kh 2

Pretty good, though you didn't show what happened if you failed Show Stealer.
'twas inevitable that I'd miss something
It's alright! You showed off everything else. :)
What happens when you fail Stunt Dodge?
If you failed show stealer, Demyx will play a guitar solo instead of the usual melody. Sora will be seen poking on Demyx as if he's seeking his attention but then Demxy will smack Sora upwards (just like how Sora did to Demyx if Show Stealer is successful)

How in gods name do you do Show Stealer, every-time i attempt it i just get whopped by a guitar
titusfang a you just mash triangle as you run towards him
Dont get close to him. He will try to approach you with the triangle button on him
When he first does it you press tringle once and dont press it again.
Fighting demyx in general is annoying but you just have to be really fast
Final xemnas and reflect is the best combo on earth
I wish we could perform reaction commands irl. It'd be AMAZING
It's a shame that it didn't include failing Demyx' reaction command.
This is why no other kh final boss can top kh2. Reaction commands were too flashy
All that; and he's still not a Keyblade Master...yet, anyway.
4:11 "We shall go together"
4:55 xemnas kicks sora in the face sora drops keyblade in pain
Just realized that. Kid doesnt drop his keyblade for nothing throughout the gane, but a kick to the head? Thats too much
Tbf, Xemnas kicks are like his primary weapon.
The whole body of the dude must be straight up lethal.
This is the biggest reason i liked kh2
Everybody gangsta until sora sees triangles
It astounds me this is a PS2 game

Hit xemnas on his last attack

He's low health and you can hear Xemnas saying "Can you spare a heart?" Which means he's going to trap Sora and slowly damage him, while you control Riku and try to get to Sora in time to save him.

Question: are reaction the kind of thing that people didn't like when the game released but now they want then back?
How do you achieve Larxene and Demyx's RC? I can't ever seem to get them to show up during the course of the fight?
Kisuke Urahara larxene clones have to be both receive a certain amount if damage and be next to each other to activate. The other you have to get past water barriers and get close to him while guarding to activate.
Ok, thanks :)
Kisuke Urahara check out my video I demonstrated how to do it with Larxene if needed.
Jump isn't a reaction command XD it comes from learn which might be a reaction command, true. but jump isn't.
Thanks for providing your own counter point
Nice video!
KH 3 Sora sucks compared to KH 2 Sora. Same with Riku
Keep in mind the dude literally lose his god power
thank you
u know i want this Version
You're gonna tell me KH3 has something like this?
