'''No Heart''' is a simulated version of [[Xehanort]] wearing [[Keyblade Armor]]. It is an optional boss in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix]]'' that serves as the only enemy in the "[[Peering into Darkness]]" battle at the [[Mirage Arena]]. 

==Story==
===''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix''===
No Heart is an opponent in the Mirage Arena. [[Terra]], [[Ventus]], and [[Aqua]] confront No Heart separately, and ultimately triumph in the process.

==Design==
No Heart wears a suit of Keyblade Armor. The Keyblade Armor itself is adorned with several [[Nobody]] emblems; one appears on the piece of armor covering No Heart's torso, two protrude from No Heart's greaves, and two more cover the boss's boots. No Heart's crown and shoulder pad are gold, while the rest of its Keyblade Armor is platinum blue and silver in coloration. No Heart wears two silver belts on its waist; instead of a spiked pauldron, white feathers cover its right shoulder. Several cords crisscross in front of No Heart's torso; these connect a pair of baggy sleeves to the massive, oblong pieces of armor No Heart wears on each arm. Before fighting, No Heart removes both of these sleeves, as well as the straps connected to them. 

No Heart's faceplate is beak-like in structure; the boss wears clawed gauntlets, and black pants appear underneath its Keyblade Armor. [[No Name]] is No Heart's weapon of choice; the boss's Keyblade Armor shares its design with the armor worn by [[Xemnas]] in his [[Game:Xemnas|Armored Controller]] form as well as Xehanort's actual Keyblade Armor from his time training under Master [[Odin]].

"No Heart" is an anagram of "Xehanort" with the "X" removed.

==Strategy==
No Heart is one of the strongest secret bosses in the game, rivaled only by [[Game:Young Xehanort|Young Xehanort]]. His attacks are strong and can deal heavy damage. In terms of preparation, the character should be at a high [[level]], have a strong Keyblade, max [[HP]], and lots of [[Cure]] and [[Potion]] [[commands]], as well as have the [[Second Chance]] and [[Once More]] [[abilities]] equipped.

In the first phase of the battle, No Heart remains stationary, protected by a large barrier of dark energy. To disable the barrier, the character must attack No Heart's Keyblade, which is constantly floating around. In terms of offense, No Heart will summon a swarm of flying Keyblades from the [[Keyblade Graveyard]] that can be blocked, or even destroyed by commands such as [[Raging Storm]], to attack the character and sometimes use an advanced [[Corridor of Darkness]]<!--It sucks the character up like a black-hole. Wasn't sure how to put it any better.--> that absorbs and traps characters on the barrier ({{button|c}} must be pressed repeatedly to break free), and may use [[Dark Volley]]. No Heart's Keyblade is vulnerable to any attack.

[[File:Versus No Heart (Phase 2) KHBBSFM.png|right|thumb|No Heart steps off his throne to directly engage in combat for his final phase.]]
After dispelling the barrier, No Heart will rise from his throne, remove his cape, and challenge the character directly. No Heart possesses an arsenal of potent dark-based attacks which can deal large, and possibly fatal damage. He mainly uses [[Sonic Impact]], darting around the arena to attack the character. The boss can utilize Dark Volley to strike from a distance, as well as summon flying Keyblades to attack. The boss can create waves of dark energy by swinging his Keyblade. He may also leap into the air and slam the ground to create a large shockwave. No Heart can use [[Reversal]] to maneuver around the character to unleash more Keyblade strikes, and may completely block attacks with his Keyblade. No Heart also can create large pools of dark energy that will either slow down or speed up anything that is inside,<!--This includes his projectiles.--> and may even bind the characters in place with no means to move aside. He can also [[Formchange]] his Keyblade into a myriad of weapons, like a claw to grab characters ({{button|c}} must be pressed repeatedly to break his grip), a spinning duel edge blade, a gun that can shoot powerful shots, greaves for powerful kicks, and a [[Keyblade Glider]] to fly. From the air, he will either shoot more dark energy blasts, summon more flying Keyblades to attack, dive at the hero repeatedly, or use his most powerful attack: A large explosion of dark energy that will instantly drain all HP, Commands, the [[Focus Gauge]], and may leave the player character stunned if characters are in the vicinity. He may also telekinetically command his Keyblade to attack characters directly and to absorb any damage directed to him.

[[Heal Strike]], [[Renewal Block]] or [[Barrier]], and a [[Command Deck]] containing [[Thunder Surge]]s alternating with Cure spells will lead to an easy victory. Once More and Second Chance should be equipped as well. Thunder Surge is particularly useful compared to other techniques because it can lead into the powerful [[Rhythm Mixer]] [[Command Style]]. Victory against No Heart depends on careful timing and conscientious healing.

In the ''[[Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX]]'' version, like with Young Xehanort, the difficulty of No Heart's battle appears to have been toned down. While he is still as dangerous as in the original version due to his increased evasion and speed in the ''HD Remix'', he is now vulnerable to [[Shotlock]] attacks like Aqua's [[Lightbloom]], which take away a good portion of his health.

The reward for defeating No Heart is the [[Royal Radiance]] Keyblade.
