In the first game they got Sephiroth's wielding hand wrong, since he's left handed and he uses his right in that. I'd like to think that he actually takes it easy on Sora there by not using his dominant hand. In this game the gloves are off and he uses his left with combos all over the place with a much more aggressive style. Though that's just some random "headcanon".

@fissilewhistle 2 жыл бұрын

Yet Max didn't even seem fazed, it's af if he was under a Trance. This was an amazing moment to see live. Kudos to those who stayed and watched the whole 12 and a half hour stream from beginning till the end. Seeing Max make slow but steady progress eventually leading to his victory in the end was so worth it. Just simply an amazing show of determination and persistence. Congrats to Max. Glad it didn't take him 358/2 attempts to beat Sephiroth.

to be fair, i'm pretty sure KH Sephiroth can only be beaten by Cloud, so it's not really a thing about sora being too weak, the matchup just sucks. or to use an analogy fitting to Sora's weapon... Sora has a skeleton key, but Sephi-lock needs one of those car-type keys (funny enough for the analogy, you get a keyblade that looks like a car key for beating him here)

Just, wow. I got into your channel from your Sephiroth Smash reaction, I cried like a baby when I saw it just like I did with Sora lol. I've been a KH fanboy since I was 8 years old when it came out in 2002. I had no idea who Sephiroth was other than the meanie who introduced me to what a super boss is. Took me longer than I'd like to admit to give FF7 a chance but after I did I see everyone's fascination with the guy, not that I didn't before because man he gave me chills when I saw him in KH2! I actually beat him in 2 quicker than 1! I know you don't like the KH series much but I'm really glad you did this and I got to see someone I admire share the pain with those of us who got to experience these fights! I'd like to think my experience with these games softened the difficulty of Dark Souls games, giving me the endurance and learning aspect at least. Thank you for this can't wait for you to try the harder KH bosses! :P
