The Rumbling Rose (ランブリングローズ Ranburingu Rōzu?) is a Keyblade from Kingdom Hearts II and Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix. It is acquired during Sora's second trip to Beast's Castle. It is the equivalent of the Divine Rose from Kingdom Hearts.

Appearance

The guard and key chain are rose-like, with thorns and roses that decorate it. The teeth seem to be claws which represents the owner of the rose, The Beast. It could also be to represent how much the Beast wants to protect the Rose. Although not stated, the rose based design could be based on the Beast's Rose.

In Combat

With a strength bonus of +5, it is tied with certain other Keyblades for the third highest strength increase. It is especially useful in Valor Form, since it allows an additional finisher to the combo.

Etymology

Rumbling Rose is a pun on "rambling rose", a type of flowering shrub native to Japan and China that was imported into North America and has since become an invasive plant.
