    Other good ones: -Hades from Hades His character is really well fleshed out, his gameplay is punishing and mostly unique to him, he looks really cool and intimidating, his soundtrack is fantastic (and I don’t even like metal that much), and he has a hidden second phase, and even a third hidden phase thanks to Extreme Measures. -The Queen from Dead Cells What makes her so cool is that she’s the main character but better. This subverts expectations because previously, the mc was thought to be a unique anomaly. She taunts you throughout the fight, her design is elegant and intimidating, and her relationship with the main character is surprisingly complicated. Gameplay-wise, she can do things only the player can do, like reflect, parry, and grapple. She’s not just tougher than the other final boss, she’s more interesting.

    Gary Oak is such a simple but effective final Boss for Red/Blue/Yellow. You're constantly outplaying him, beating him despite him being slightly ahead, and then *he* becomes the champion! It's such a "no shit" move nowadays, but for a gameboy game, I really think that was pretty neat. Him constantly belittling you helped a lot, too. Make me hate, sympathize or feel SOME emotion toward a boss at all, otherwise he's just a tough guy with a banger OST and cool presentation.

Expectations: Ends up being one of the most low-key bosses in the game, which is somehow more impactful than if From had just gone balls to the wall.

    While it isn't very difficult, my all-time favorite boss battle would have to be *GANON* from Ocarina of Time. The unexpected second phase, losing the Master Sword, the dark atmosphere, Zelda screaming when you got hurt, only seeing that huge silhouette against the ring of fire that kept you from escaping, I mean DAMN that was such an epic final battle.

    Monster Hunter be like, "We got a final boss fight for your boss fight, and sometimes you'll get an interrupting miniboss-bossfight in your normalfight-bossfight too"

    Gotta say, I love this new “deconstruction” type of video format. It’s made even better with the examples and themes you use. I’m really liking this New Age FUNKe Justyn.
