The Zip Slasher (ロールスラッシャー Rōru Surasshā, lit. "Roll Slasher") is an Emblem Heartless exclusive to Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. With great amounts of HP, it appeared before Roxas and Marluxia as an optional boss in Twilight Town.
Appearance
This Heartless is rather small, about as tall as Roxas. Its armor light blue in coloration, it is basically a smaller version of the Dual Blade Heartless. This would suggest that the Zip Slasher and its larger cousin are connected in some way.
Strategy
The Zip Slasher is indeed powerful. It does not hesitate to attack, immediately lunging at Roxas. This tactic is easily predicted, as the Heartless' blades glow green, and can be avoided with careful timing of the Guard Ability. It should be noted that it tends to execute a spinning attack before the forward lunge, this Heartless's only tactic. It should also be noted that the best time to attack this Heartless is when it pauses after each attack. Despite its great amounts of health (a grand total of 11 HP Bars), the Zip Slasher is actually quite easy to defeat so long as the player heals periodically, yet it will be a long battle due to the amount of time required for dodging attacks. Do not worry about Marluxia in this battle, as he will take care of himself.
