The Sleeping Lion (スリーピングライオン Surīpingu Raion) is a Keyblade given to Sora by Leon before the second trip into Space Paranoids in Kingdom Hearts II. This keychain is the equivalent of the Lionheart keychain from Kingdom Hearts.
Appearance
The blade and hilt appear like the Gunblade wielded by Squall in Final Fantasy VIII. The tip and token are lion-heads, reminiscent of Griever from Final Fantasy VIII.
In Combat
Because of the +5 strength bonus and Combo Plus ability, this keyblade is quite useful with Valor Form throughout the entire game.
Other Media
Sleeping Lion is one of the Keyblades packaged with the Series 1 Play Arts Figures Final Form figure.
Trivia
- Sleeping Lion can be seen in the Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix secret ending, "Birth by sleep", after Aqua casts a Reflect-like spell on Terra. It can also be seen stuck in the ground when Master Xehanort summons the storm of Keyblades.
- It has also made several appearance in the latest Birth by Sleep trailer, one time have the camera focused on it in the field of Keyblades before moving away, and another time being seen ridden by Vanitas in the Keyblade storm that Master Xehanort created.
