DiZ opposed a hero, Roxas, so by definition that kind of makes him an antagonist, but not necessarily a villain.
Ansem The Wise / DiZ [video=youtube;QJCTwmzasaU]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJCTwmzasaU[/video] Here is Ansem the Wise's dialogue. He had some amazing quotes, and as is standard, Christopher Lee is amazing.

Check out his Battle Quotes which I uploaded then: [video]www.youtube.com/watch?v=CeZGOlHmsfI[/video] Note: The laugh is the best evil laugh ever.

I really don't think that I am as hyped for this movie as I should, especially considering that The Dark Knight is probably in my top 10 movies list.

Very much so. I loved being introduced to the characters back in KH1 and KH2. I had never played their respective games before. Now though, I am familiar with just about every FF even if I hadn't beaten it. I would like to see new characters but with the knowledge of who they are and what they did in their respective games. It makes me kind of mad that they keep getting rid of FF in KH when some of the appeal was seeing all of the characters together in one world.
Just as a reference... [video=youtube;PCBWWUYYwDo]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCBWWUYYwDo[/video]
Mine is Ansem, The Seeker of Darkness. He was the first one, and also, DATBILLYZANE.
Oh yeah, and the version of "Disappeared" that plays during Final Mix is far superior to the Kingdom Hearts II version. Much more creepy, and menacing in my honest opinion. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UeXsYfmlZtU
I think it's more what you call "artificial difficulty" where the boss isn't hard, so much as just cheap and luck based, not genuinely difficult like say, Kingdom Hearts 1 Sephiroth. So I've heard.
I never thought I could do it either. I was a bit worried at first... then after I started playing I was like "this isn't so bad" The translation...
Overall, this has got to be one of my least favorite retcons in the series. It was just so easily avoidable... there was really no reason at all to include them at Mysterious Tower in BBS. Yet, they did it anyway with nothing to gain from it while just contradicting other entries. Even besides this, they shouldn't have ever seen a keyblade in BBS because of how KH1 made it seem as if they had never seen one before. Just a gigantic oversight on Square Enix's part, and I'm a bit disappointed in this stupid mystic.
Have you actually fought Xemnas in Final Mix? He is very, very fun to fight. And though Lingering Sentiment is maybe a bit more fun, I can't say that about Mysterious Figure. In my opinion, Mysterious Figure is a poorly designed boss. The fight relies almost completely on luck and dodge spamming, and his one hit kills just make the fight not as enjoyable. No Heart is a much better boss, who is genuinely difficult without being cheap.
Canonically, Xemnas, wins this objectively since Nomura claimed that he was the strongest being in the KH verse, plus quite a lot of things suggest that the Organization was scared to cross him. Battle wise? Xemnas in Kingdom Hearts 1 Final Mix was the hardest. He had almost all of his final form moves in KH2, but used them in KH1's more balanced and difficult battle system. It made for an amazing boss fight. I don't understand why the fight with Xemnas at memories contortion was so easy... you'd think that the developers would give him more than just, like 3 moves. Even the data fight for that was easy. Even the LEVEL 1 CRITICAL story fight was easy.
Marluxia is the one who I want to see the most. I can't believe that we still haven't seen his human form, considering that he was Sora's Final Boss in Chain of Memories. Luxord is a close second. I love his voice actor and element. I love his sophisticated style, and hilariously good vocabulary. I wish he was a more important character in the series, to be quite honest.
I just can't believe how much effort went into doing this battle. It just ties into the storyline so well. It seems less like an optional boss, and more like a story boss. Just think about it for a minute: The princesses before the battle introduce Sora to the concept of Nothingness as the third power in the KHverse, opposed to both light and dark. It was Sora's first encounter with the Organization - his first time meeting a Nobody, which would eventually lead to everything that happened in CoM and KH2. It was the first time his memories were sampled, which comes into play in Days. It set into motion... pretty much everything about Castle Oblivion, really, save Namine's birth there. Xemnas also reveals so many things in his little chat with Sora, which we didn't know for sure about until KH2: -that Sora's special, and that his present state is that of an incomplete being. -that he, Xemnas, had spent some time being known as "Ansem." -that Sora looks like his Nobody. And after the battle, he even makes remarks that take on a whole new meaning after playing Days. I just love how this fight ties into almost everything that we've done in the series. Does anyone else agree? The difficulty is also very hard, and it took me until I got the One-Winged Angel Keyblade to beat the guy. Even still, I made sure to reset so that I could refight him any time that I wanted.
Is this even a question? Kingdom Hearts 1 Sephiroth is much harder than Kingdom Hearts 2 Sephiroth. I find Kingdom Hearts 2 Sephiroth easily doable on my level 1 file, where as Kingdom Hearts 1 Sephiroth is difficult until you get to about level 70. That said, I enjoy both fights quite a lot (though I still prefer Kingdom Hearts 1 Sephiroth since that intro, and music, and well, everything about that fight inspired me to play the Final Fantasy series).
I believe that 165 is the limit, and honestly, it's more than enough. I remember maxing out all of the abilities that I needed with about 150. I love the way to get AP Boosts in Final Mix. Fighting Demyx and Luxord Datas doesn't feel as slow as regular AP Boost grinding was, and it's quite fun.
