In contrast to Retaliating Slash, Sora is granted brief invulnerability when performing Aerial Recovery, and can parry enemy attacks.

In Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Aerial Recovery is an ability panel that can be leveled up from Aerial Recovery LV1 to Aerial Recovery LV2 and Aerial Recovery LV3 by linking A.
