'''Counterattack''' is an ability in ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]''. It is meant to be equipped in conjunction with [[Guard]]. It allows the user to quickly get in an attack directly after blocking an attack with [[Guard]], it allows you to branch the first attack off into a combo, as well. It's useful for fights where the enemy has a fast recovery rate and will generally launch right back into an attack after [[Sora]] [[Guard|block]]s it. It can also be used when parrying an attack by perfectly timing an attack and blocking the opponents attack with it.

'''Note''': It seems some enemies, especially later on in the game, can also use a form of this. [[Riku]] uses on an odd form in the [[Destiny Islands]] where if hit onto the ground, he kicks back through [[Sora]]. He also uses this when you fight him for the [[Riku (Enemy)|second time]] at [[Hollow Bastion]]. (He taunts you and holds his blade in a [[Guard]] like stance and if [[Sora]] hits it, he quickly spins around and hits [[Sora]], often launching into a another combo right afterward)
