Black Hole is a technique introduced in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. It allows the user to cloak the Keyblade in light and perform a flurry of slashes, ending by summoning pillars of light.

A black hole is a celestial body with a gravitational field so strong nothing can escape, not even light. The technique's Japanese name, "Event Horizon," is the boundary of no escape.

Mechanics

In Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Black Hole is Roxas and Xion's Limit Break. It allows them to encase their Keyblade in light to slash at enemies with great strength. During the Final Limit, they summon four pillars of light around themselves that quickly move away in straight paths to the ends of the field, dealing heavy damage to enemies in their way.

In Kingdom Hearts Union χ, Black Hole is a special attack that targets a single enemy. It costs 2 special attack gauge to perform in the English version, and 3 in the Japanese version. In the English version, Black Hole +5 and Black Hole +6 inflict more damage the more gauges are used that turn. In both versions, Black Hole +7 restores 2 special attack gauges.
