After this, Xemnas is vulnerable for a short time, then will use the same technique as he did when the battle began, flinging Sora into the air -the player should likewise use ''Reversal'' or ''Eternal Session'' to avoid damage. Afterwards Xemnas resumes using the attacks he used prior to his laser attacks - namely, tendrils of dark and light energy and spinning with his aerial blades extended. | After this, Xemnas is vulnerable for a short time, then will use the same technique as he did when the battle began, flinging Sora into the air -the player should likewise use ''Reversal'' or ''Eternal Session'' to avoid damage.

Once Xemnas' HP is below half of his final HP bar, he will turn the area dark and summon hundreds of aerial blades to surround Sora and Riku.

The player must rapidly tap X (or Circle in Final Mix) and Triangle to activate the ''Reflect'' command for both Sora and Riku, otherwise the barrage will surely deplete their HP. The barrage lasts a long time, so this can be difficult. Afterwards, there will be a scene where Xemnas will corner a weakened Riku and Sora, only for Riku to pass Sora his Keyblade. Sora will use the two Keyblades to deflect Xemnas' attack and fling him into the air, after which he and Riku combine their powers and pierce Xemnas with a bolt of energy. Finally, the scene will end with Xemnas hanging in the air with 1 HP left - he will no longer attack, so the player merely needs to initiate a final combo and hit him with a finisher to win the battle. | ||
It is important to note there is no way to avoid Xemnas' final assault. Although the player ''can'' deplete Xemnas' HP to 1, at this time he will stop taking damage, even from finishers. No matter how low his HP drops, Xemnas cannot be defeated until after his laser barrage, the player must survive it to deal the final blow. Also, no matter what Xemnas' HP was before his barrage, afterwards when he is hanging in the air, his HP will have become 1. | It is important to note there is no way to avoid Xemnas' final assault.

In the Data rematch, Xemnas instead begins the battle by unleashing his energy spheres to the pair's location, often in front of him, which makes it difficult to land a hit on him. Also, the pauses before he and his clone fire their lasers in succession disappear, and he fires another stream after his ring of lasers attack. Unlike the normal battle, however, it is now possible to avoid Xemnas capturing Sora, primarily by casting Curaga, which the player will most likely do at that point, and he will discontinue attempting the same attack. | In the Data rematch, Xemnas instead begins the battle by unleashing his energy spheres to the pair's location, often in front of him, which makes it difficult to land a hit on him.
