'''Magic Hour''' is a technique that appears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]''. It allows the user to generate giant pillars of light that damage the opponent.
==Mechanics==
In ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', Magic Hour is [[Dual-wielding Roxas]]'s [[Limit Break]]. It consists of him jumping a few feet off the ground, then summoning the pillars of light to rain down randomly around him. The [[Final Limit]] increases the size, speed, and strength of the pillars, and also shields Roxas in a cloak of light.<!--to what ends?--> During both phases, Roxas can stall the attack with {{button|dsb}}, forcing him to drop down, allowing him to move elsewhere and resume the attack with {{button|dsa}}.

In ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'', Magic Hour is an Ultimate {{c|attack command|KHBBS}} exclusive to [[Aqua]] that takes up two slots in the Command Deck, has a maximum level of 5, has a normal reload time of 25 seconds, and refills the Command Gauge by 10%. It also has a [[Command Shop]] value of 2500. Magic Hour causes the user to teleport to the air above an enemy, and dive down to generate a single pillar of light. The player is required to press {{button|t}} when signaled to continue generating the pillars.
Dual-Wielding [[Roxas]]'s Limit Break is Magic Hour and is similar to Zexion's Limit Break. During Magic Hour, Roxas leaps into the air and shoots up a beam of light with his joined Keyblades. By doing so, he summons many large pillars of light to repeatedly come down onto the battle field. Enemies that get hit take devastating damage. During Dual-Wield Roxas's Final Limit, Roxas uses even more power. He changes his position, and Roxas himself even becomes coated in light during this Final Limit. The pillars of light that he summons are even larger and faster, and deal an even greater amount of damage.
