User:D.Dark./Walkthrough: Kingdom Hearts II/Part 1

Opening

The opening will start with a 4 minute show of KH awesomeness and a sum of what happened in the previous two games along with some cutscenes.

Now, this page will cover the beginning of the game which features Roxas, in essence its one big tutorial.

Roxas

Roxas

File:Roxas-2.png Snazzy looking fella aint he? Roxas is... well.... alright, the next few things will be spoilers so read at your own risk. Roxas is the Nobody of Kingdom Hearts protagonist Sora but thankfully did not get his lame fashion sense, which was apparently inspired by Mickey Mouse himself... Roxas was created when Sora stabbed himself with the Dark Keyblade to release Kairi's heart but at the same time his own which led to his creation along with a fellow Nobody, Naminé. Roxas's story which begins as soon as he is born actually starts in the recently released Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days and his two friends. But this is KHII and happens just a few days after 358/2 and i really should not be saying much more soooo... Roxas happens to be one of my two favorite KH characters so I will be mentioning his greatness every 10 lines.... well, not really. While playing as Roxas you will have a limited amount of abilities and commands to use.

The _____ Thieves

So we meet Roxas's friends Hayner, Pence and Olette, apparently pictures have been stolen around Twilight Town and a character named Seifer a character from FFVIII is blaming our Klepto Club (name by Hayner) for all the thievery. Roxas with his brilliant mind decides they should find the real thieves. Pence finds out that their _______ are gone along with the word _____ - yeah, that makes a lot of sense.

Anyway continuing on... now you have control of Roxas so walk to the store right in front of you and talk to the clerk. Then you have to go to the accessory shop which is shown in the cutscene there... Finally go to what looks like a candy shop in the middle of the place, the old lady will ask you to find her cat. Simply press to find it.

After that our little club goes to the Sandlot to confront Seifer. Once the cutscene is over you get a choice of three weapons: the Struggle Wand, Struggle Guard Bat and the Struggle Bat.

Depending on which you chose you get a 1+ to a stat, so if you want to be more powerful in magic even though you don't have any, pick the wand. If you simply want defense pick the guard bat. And if you want attack power chose the Bat. I personally chose the bat as I have always except for once where I accidentally chose the wand.

Now you learn the battle mechanics. Simply press the three times for a combo. After the combo you will enter a real boss battle with Seifer. It's BOSS BATTLE TIME!!

Seifer Boss Battle

Boss Battle : Seifer

HP: 100 Difficulty: 1/5 Reaction Command: None Seifer is always on his guard. His normal stance is guarded, so when you hit him you'll be deflected. However, if you continue to hit him immediately after he lets down his guard (which is once you've hit him the first time), you can chain at least three attacks. Seifer's main attacks are a basic slash and spin attack. Both are easy to parry, so attack when you have the chance. You should easily be able to deflect his attack and return with a combo. After several combos, he is likely to jump high into the air, saying "Isn't this romantic?". He will then come down with his bat outward. The best way to avoid this is to run toward him, as the attack has limited range. You can also simply walk behind him as he descends, so his attack passes right over you without danger of being hit. Do not jump into the air whilst Seifer is performing this move, because he will hit you and send you flying regardless of whether you are parrying or not. The only way to recover from this is by using the Aerial Recovery technique which you currently don't have. If you'd like a foolproof method, just run to the side when he comes at you with his bat - you're bound to avoid him, and you can always leave him open for battle.

More photo thieves...

After the battle a circus freak in a white jumpsuit will steal a photo from Pence after he took one of Roxas defeating Seifer (Nice one!). Follow the freak to the woods all the way to the Mansion on the other side of the woods. The freak will be standing there wiggling around in an erotic way; press to enable a cutscene. But oh no, you have to fight the freak. Try using the reaction command (Reversal) against it, attack and dodge. You know the pattern: if he walks in the air, watch out! If you hit him thrice and he lunges at you, jump to evade the attack, and you're well on your way.

After a little while another cutscene will come and your Struggle weapon will turn into the Keyblade, yay! Now you can bash the circus freak all you want until it releases quite some amount of munny for that enemy's kind (not like they drop munny anyway). After the battle you find all the stolen pictures and Pence notices that they all have Roxas in it, showing how popular he is... altough there is one I would like to burn. (Don't ask!)
