The '''Guardian Soul''' is a [[Keychain]] for [[Kingdom Key|Sora's Keyblade]] that appears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''.
{{nihongo|'''Guardian Soul'''|ガーディアンソウル|Gādian Souru}} is a [[Keyblade]] in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'' which is given to Sora by [[Auron]] after he defeats Hades and restores Auron's will.
== Appearance ==
The blade is similar to Auron's strongest weapon in Final Fantasy X, the Masamune. The hilt guard is a strange face while the token is Auron's jug of sake. In addition, the sparks that appear when the blade is used to strike as per other Keyblades are Yevon symbols, a reference to the main plot of Final Fantasy X. This is, however, ironic, as Auron was instrumental in revealing the truth of the religion.


==Design==
==In Combat==
The blade is similar to Auron's strongest weapon in ''Final Fantasy X'', the Masamune. The hilt guard is an ogre-like face, with yellow eyes and fin like extrusions, while the token is Auron's jug of sake. In addition, the sparks that appear when the blade strikes an opponent are Yevon symbols, a reference to the main plot of ''Final Fantasy X'', despite that Auron was instrumental in revealing the sinister truth of the religion.
Guardian Soul can be useful in many situations, as it has a fairly good reach and (with a strength stat of +5) has the roughly third highest strength bonus in the game (while other Keyblades also have +5 strength boost--such as [[Sleeping Lion]] and [[Rumbling Rose]], very few are any higher than this). Furthermore, the ability on it, Reaction Boost, increases damage dealt from reaction commands, therefore making such fights the [[Master Control Program]] battle easier.


The name references Auron's former occupation as a Guardian for [[Gullwings|Yuna]] and {{ff|Lord Braska|Braska}} in ''{{ff|Final Fantasy X}}''.  As he was an unsent soul in that game and is a soul in the Underworld in ''Kingdom Hearts II'', the name actually serves as a pun on Auron himself; he is a literal guardian soul.
