NSYNC's Sephiroth Voice Actor Can't Beat Kingdom Hearts Boss

Aug 04, 2024 3:19 PM

The article discusses the notable achievement and struggle of Lance Bass, former NSYNC member and voice actor for Sephiroth in the first Kingdom Hearts game, regarding his inability to defeat the secret boss fight featuring his own character. Despite his badass performance as Sephiroth, Lance admits he never managed to conquer the tough battle. During a Reddit AMA, Bass explained his struggle, adding humor to the situation and surprising many fans who didn’t know about his voice acting role. Kingdom Hearts showcases several unique voice casting choices, like David Boreanaz, Christy Carlson Romano, and Mandy Moore, adding a special touch to the game’s rich character lineup.

How can you defeat Sephiroth in Kingdom Hearts?

To defeat Sephiroth in Kingdom Hearts, you need to reach a high level, ideally above 75, equipped with the strongest Keyblade, like Ultima Weapon. Master dodging and guarding, manage your MP for Curaga spells, and exploit openings in Sephiroth's attack patterns to deal damage cautiously.

Kingdom Hearts, developed by Square Enix in collaboration with Disney, merges characters and worlds from Final Fantasy and Disney. The first game was released in 2002 for the PS2, introducing players to a unique blend of action RPG elements, memorable characters, and challenging boss fights, including the notorious Sephiroth battle.

It's pretty wild that even Lance Bass struggled to take down his own character in Kingdom Hearts Shows just how intense and unforgiving the Sephiroth fight can be, even for those who lend their voices to these iconic roles.

Haha, it's wild to think that Lance Bass, despite his epic performance as Sephiroth, couldn't beat his own character in Kingdom Hearts. Just goes to show, sometimes even the voice behind the baddie can't crack the boss battle themselves
