Explosion (ability)

Explosion (エクスプロージョン) is an ability that appears in Kingdom Hearts II and Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep. It allows the user to create an explosion of light that knocks down nearby enemies.

Mechanics
In Kingdom Hearts II, Explosion is an action ability which provides Sora with a combo finisher in which he brings down his Keyblade, generating a revolving circle of exploding orbs of light. The damage inflicted on enemies depends on the stat. It costs 3 AP to equip.
