TheInvisible is aPureblood Heartless introduced inKingdom Hearts.

Design[edit]

The Invisibles are reminiscent ofDarksides, possessing black skin, a similar muscular frame, and a heart-shaped hole in their torsos, but are smaller and more embellished. They have sharp purple and blue horns that form the outline of a curled heart similar to the ones found in theKingdom Hearts games' logos. They also have small blue bat-like wings on their back, gold-tipped feathered wings on their forearms, and bluish-purple fireballs under their feet, presumably assisting them in their fast movements and tying into their dark fire attack. Their long tails appear scaly, and end in a sharp, crescent-shaped blade.

Unlike many Heartless, which tend to attack with natural weapons like claws or magic-based powers, the Invisible bears a scalloped, blue-bladed sword, which appears blunt, but can unleash powerful physical blows. InKingdom Hearts andKingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, the kanji for "Hard Core" (硬核, Kou Kaku^?) are written on the hilt of its blade.

The Heartless's name references its ability to disappear when using its "Dark Transformation" attack.

Strategy[edit]

Kingdom Hearts[edit]

The Invisible fires dark energy every now and then, and uses its sword to slash at their target. His Dark Transformation attack includes slamming its sword in the ground, while the main body turns into a ring of dark fire surrounding their target. The ring of dark fire appears to circle the one closest to the Invisible. Once the time is up, the curse explodes, dealing large damage to any member of the party. This can be avoided by jumping, usingSuperglide, or usingDodge Roll. LikeAngel Stars, they have a high rate of dropping aGale once defeated.

Invisibles are a difficult type of Heartless to defeat due to their high hp and strength; they almost always appear in groups and thus can be a huge problem if the player gets overwhelmed. Fights with Invisibles can be made easier through the use ofThunder,Gravity, andAero magic. Once an Invisible uses its "Dark Transformation" attack, the player should time their jump right to avoid the attack, since Dodge Rolling requires more strict if not impossible timing to avoid it; this gives the player the chance to attack the Invisible and ultimately defeat it.

Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days[edit]

InKingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, the Invisible has much more health and strength than inKingdom Hearts, as well as an arsenal of new attacks. It Shockwave attack allows its weapon to fly at its target up to five times while going is invisible, before surrounding the target with the ring and striking down with a long-range shockwave. Striking the Invisible before it sends the shock waves will momentarily stun it. It will fire a consecutive string of energy spheres, dealing a high amount of damage and possibly lowering Roxas's Defense to Lv. 1.

It is recommended to equip gear with proficiency in aerial combos, as most of the combat with an Invisible takes place in the air. Watch for when it begins its attacks, and either air slide or return to the ground to block according to the situation. When it vanishes and flies its sword around the area, get ready to glide and make sharp turns when the sword charges.
