Samurai

The Samurai is a Nobody controlled by Roxas in Kingdom Hearts II. It is proficient with its swords, and difficult to defeat. It first appeared in Hollow Bastion, during the first visit when Sora has to fight the Nobodies after meeting Yuffie

Journal Entry
''A samurai. A high-ranking Nobody. Using swords and their sheaths as weapons, it can handle up to four weapons at a time. It attacks with calmness and efficiency.''

''Make sure not to lose sight of it once it hides beneath the ground. After parrying its attack, it sits and waits, giving an opportunity to use reaction commands.''

Fight one-on-one while the others sit back and watch.

Anatomy
The Samurai, like other high-ranking Nobodies, is humanoid with thinner or thicker body parts. It has a curved body, a very thin waist and large hips. It wears what seems to be a mask with three parallel diagonal slits on each side of the face. Its clothes are similar to those of a real samurai's, which covers most of the body, showing only its black hands. It wears and uses a pair of swords, like Roxas (their leader) who wields two Keyblades. In combat, the Samurai also wields their sheaths in combination with their swords, giving them the ability to utilize up to four weapons at once in battle. Based on their physique and fighting style, it is believed that the Invisible may be their Heartless counterpart.

Strategy
Samurai Nobodies do not attack very spontaneously. Rather, these Nobodies will remain calm and poised for a long while before sending a flurry of blade swipes at Sora. Moving slowly, but gracefully, Samurais wait for Sora's attack before attacking themselves. Their reaction command, Dual Stance, puts Sora and the Nobody at odds. The command list then goes blank. Once a command does reappear, Sora must select that command to score a hit on the Samurai. If not, the Samurai will hit Sora instead. This command can deal a good amount of damage to the Samurai, but also can backfire to damage Sora.
