In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Applause, Applause is an [[action ability]] exclusive to Jack Skellington. It is a Limit Command that costs 3 AP to equip and all MP to execute.
In ''Kingdom Hearts'', Applause! is a [[combat ability]] exclusive to Jack Skellington. It is a special attack that costs 1 {{AP}} to equip and 1 [[MP]] to use. When used, Jack performs a sliding attack with long range.
Upon activation of Dance Call, Jack immediately sends Sora spinning like a top. The player has the opportunity to navigate at enemies to rack up damage. While the Limit is active, Sora and Jack enter a formation consisting of Jack on top of Sora, both spinning in a taller version of the opening move. At this point, the player has the option of using '''Synchronization''' or '''Downbeat'''.  


Synchronization sends Jack on top of their formation and Sora to the bottom, where Jack emits a pumpkin emblem to fire ghosts and Sora likewise fires bats, both in an area of effect range. In Downbeat, Sora moves to the top this time to fire ghosts while Jack goes on bottom to fire bats. After 5 shots of Downbeat or Synchronization, the finishing move, '''Finale''', becomes available; however, the player is advised to run down the Limit gauge for as long as possible to rack up free hits from the top formation. With Finale, Jack sends Sora flying into the air and unleashes a more powerful version and mixed version of both ghosts and bats around the dancing duo. Sora and Jack then hit the ground, sending out sparklers and concluding the Limit.
In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Applause, Applause is an [[action ability]] exclusive to Jack Skellington. It is a Limit Command that costs 3 AP to equip and all MP to execute. The limit begins with {{nihongo|'''Dance Call'''|ダンスタイム|Dansu Taimu|lit.

After five alternations, the finishing move, {{nihongo|'''Finale'''|フィナーレ|Fināre}}, becomes available; powerful ghosts and bats surround the duo, as Jack sends Sora flying into the air, releasing sparklers when he lands.  While the Limit is active, the duo can move around freely.

Applause, Applause, also called Applause!, is a technique that appears in Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts II.

Mechanics[edit]

In Kingdom Hearts, Applause! is a combat ability exclusive to Jack Skellington. It is a special attack that costs 1 AP to equip and 1 MP to use. When used, Jack performs a sliding attack with long range.

In Kingdom Hearts II, Applause, Applause is an action ability exclusive to Jack Skellington. It is a Limit Command that costs 3 AP to equip and all MP to execute. The limit begins with Dance Call (ダンスタイム Dansu Taimu?, lit. "Dance Time"), in which Jack and Sora spin together as one unit, similar to a top, dealing damage to enemies they touch. Afterwards, they alternate between two attacks that are available through either the Attack or Reaction Command slot. Downbeat (ダウンビート Daunbīto?), sends Jack to shoot ghosts at the top of the spinning formation while Sora fires bats from the bottom. The ghosts and bats deal area of effect damage. In the second attack, Synchronization (アップリズム Appu Rizumu?, lit. "Up Rhythm"), Sora and Jack switch positions and projectiles. After five alternations, the finishing move, Finale (フィナーレ Fināre?), becomes available; powerful ghosts and bats surround the duo, as Jack sends Sora flying into the air, releasing sparklers when he lands. While the Limit is active, the duo can move around freely. The limit can be cancelled early through the Stop (やめる Yameru?) command in the Limit slot.
