Kingdom Hearts
Spellcasting Heartless. Besides attacking with Thunder, they hurl themselves against their enemies. They absorb thunder attacks.
Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories
A magic-wielding Heartless that drifts through the air.
The Yellow Opera hurls itself at enemies or attacks with Thunder.
It absorbs all lightning damage.
Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days
These small flying Heartless strike with head-butts and Thunder magic that can't be interrupted by attacking.

TIP: Lighting-based attacks can jolt you. Coming into contact with something in that state will cost you up to 10% of your max HP.
Kingdom Hearts Re:coded
Floating, spell-slinging Heartless—but don't fall for the friendly ghost act. They will zap you with Thunder magic at the first chance they get, and zoom away if you try to go after them. Good thing they don't have much HP.
Kingdom Hearts Union χ
This enemy temporarily increases its strength before unleashing an attack. Use Speed medals to eliminate it on the double!

The Yellow Opera is an Emblem Heartless introduced in Kingdom Hearts.

Design[edit]

A Yellow Opera has a smooth, conical, yellow body and has a Heartless emblem is emblazoned on its chest. The top of its body flares outward and forms a jagged "collar" below the Heartless's spherical, pitch black head. It also wears a conical, orange hat that has a jagged brim and a thin, slightly bent tip. Unlike many Heartless in its family, this tip is very long and did not curl up in Kingdom Hearts, though it did in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. Like many Heartless, the Yellow Opera has glowing yellow eyes. Its seemingly useless feet sport three small, thin toes.

Like other Heartless in its family, the Yellow Opera's name refers to a color—in this case, yellow—and a musical term—in this case, an opera, which is a theatrical work combining drama, music, song and sometimes dance, and specifically the name refers to the score for such a work here.

Strategy[edit]

Kingdom Hearts[edit]

Yellow Opera utilize Thunder magic and absorbs any kind of Thunder magic cast on it, but are affected by all other types of magic. They are the fastest of their kind, and dart around, however their attacks are easily dodged. Like the rest of their family, Yellow Opera are most common in Wonderland once the Hollow Bastion keyhole is revealed.

If timed correctly, Sora can earn Tech Points in Kingdom Hearts.[5][6][7][8]

Guard/Block: △ = Can be blocked; O = Can be blocked and interrupted (melee) or deflected back (projectile); X = Cannot be blocked.

Yellow Operas fight mostly the same as they do in Kingdom Hearts. Yellow Operas are not dangerous on their own, but may prove a nuisance while fighting other enemies with their Thunder attack, which can be easily dodged with the use of Dodge Roll, so getting rid of them can be efficient due to their low health. They are weak to Fire magic, and will absorb Thunder magic.
