I was scared at first when doing this fight but you quickly realize how much damage dara riku actually takes. This fight took longer than when i did marluxia and this is harder
2:22 doesn't always seem to work for me. Sometimes instead of teleporting nearby, he'll instead teleport right next to you and attacks before it's necessary to dodge roll the claw attack. For a level 1, this is always a 1 hit defeat.
The mere fact they gave him 3 or 4 unblockable is why I'm not continuing with this series in the future. Peace. Making the block button un-useful to the player is a huge taboo to me, and future games all the stupid bosses will have multiple unblockable attacks, which makes this game intolerable.
Also I'd like to point out if you still have trouble with data riku. Just learn to dodge him and try mashing. As silly as it sounds it legit worked for me. Aside from this advice. Please learn at least two moves to punish. Repliku does all his shit so sporadically that it's an actual strat to dodge and mash.
