Editing Reaction Endurance

{{Translation}}
{{nihongo|'''Reaction Endurance'''|リアクション耐久値|Riakushon Taikyū-chi}} is a combat mechanic in the ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|series}}'' series. It determines how many hits an enemy will take before flinching or being blown away. 

Enemies begin encounters with a certain amount of Reaction Endurance. Each attack that hits the enemy decreases their Reaction Endurance by a certain amount, which is referred to as the attack's '''{{nihongo|Reaction Value|リアクション値|Riakushon-chi}}'''. When an enemy's Reaction Endurance reaches 0, they flinch or are blown away.

===''Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance''===
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]'', every enemy and Spirit has a hidden Reaction Endurance value. Every attack landed on the target will deplete their Reaction Endurance by the attack's Reaction Value. Once a target's Reaction Endurance reaches 0, they will flinch, be blown away or be stunned. If a creature with a current Reaction Endurance of 1 or greater is unharmed for at least 10 seconds, their Reaction Endurance will fully recover. If a creature with a current Reaction Endurance of 0 is unharmed, they will recover from their stagger after a period of time determined by their Reaction Endurance stat. If a creature with a current Reaction Endurance of 0 flinches, their Reaction Endurance will fully recover.

{{ns|Game|Young Xehanort}}, {{ns|Game|Xemnas}}, and the [[Spellican]] follow a special set of rules when their Reaction Endurance reaches 0. It will not be recovered if they flinch, and they will continue to flinch every time they receive an attack. However, if this situation continues for 6.7 seconds (3.3 seconds for Xemnas), their Reaction Endurance will fully recover and they will bounce back.

Some bosses, such as [[Chill Clawbster]], are immune to flinching during powerful attacks, even if their Reaction Endurance is 0.

Ordinary [[Dream Eaters]] have a Reaction Endurance of 1. Certain strong Dream Eaters have a Reaction Endurance of 3 or 4; this includes the [[Kooma Panda]], [[Zolephant]], [[Drill Sye]], [[Halbird]], [[Eaglider]], [[Thunderaffe]], [[Cera Terror]], [[Tyranto Rex]], [[Aura Lion]], [[Pegaslick]], [[Electricorn]], [[Skelterwild]], [[Keeba Tiger]], [[Ryu Dragon]], [[Ursa Circus]], and [[Beatalike]]{{KHDDDHD}}{{?}}. Bosses have a unique Reaction Endurance value.

===''Kingdom Hearts III''===
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]'', Reaction Endurance functions nearly identically to ''Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance''. When an enemy is hit, their Reaction Endurance decreases by the attack's Reaction Value, and the enemy will react to the blow once their Reaction Endurance reaches 0.

An enemy's Reaction Endurance is restored by 1 for every 10 seconds the enemy is not attacked. The Reaction Endurance will be completely restored if the enemy reacts (small flinches excluded), if 10 seconds pass after the endurance reaches 0, or if the enemy activates a [[Revenge Action]].

The [[Darkside]], [[Rock Titan]], [[Demon Tower]], [[Demon Tide]], [[King of Toys]], [[Raging Vulture]], and [[Lightning Angler]] do not have a Reaction Endurance value and consequently their behavior is not directly affected by Sora's attacks in general; instead, most of these bosses have stun states or other such "reaction" mechanics tied to HP thresholds. Many members of the [[real Organization XIII]] have a Reaction Endurance value of 0, but they do not flinch during attacks.
