Darkside is a boss from Kingdom Hearts. It is a colossal pureblood Heartless that Sora encountered 3/4 times. Instances included in the mysterious Awakening, the Destiny Islands, and in the End of the World. It also has a resemblance to Twilight Thorn which could possibly be its Nobody. Sora also glimpsed a number of Darksides within the Door to Darkness before they were destroyed by King Mickey.
In Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, Riku fights a Darkside similar to how Sora fought him. Zexion creates this Darkside from a copy of Riku similar to how Sora faced Darkside in Dive to the Heart where it was created from Sora's shadow. Darkside's name refers to how he is often shown as a representation of the Darkness within others.
Darkside's theme song is Destati. It has a heart-shaped hole in its stomach. It creates Shadows by creating an orb which it puts in the hole in its stomach. The monster can also fire these orbs from its stomach as offensive weapons. It's also the very first boss that is battled in the series.
Darkside is fought at Twilight Town (during a mission involving Roxas and Xion) in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days.
Journal Entry
Kingdom Hearts
Enormous Heartless that appeared in Destiny Islands with Shadows. It led the Shadows in the battle against Sora when he first received the Keyblade. Although Sora defeated it, the island was swallowed by the darkness.
Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories
The Heartless that attacked Sora's home, Destiny Islands.
Sora fought valiantly to protect the islands and his memories there.
Strategies
Kingdom Hearts
Darkside is a easy-medium boss, and you can defeat him very quickly. His weaknesses are his head and hands. His attacks in all three battles of Kingdom Hearts are:
- The Darkside punches the ground, causing a dark pool and mild shockwave to form. This attack gives birth to a small number of Shadows.
- The Darkside scoops up an orb of darkness, which splits into many smaller orbs that rain from the sky.
- The Darkside creates a dark force in the heart-shaped hole in its body, which shoots homing dark missiles. These can be dodged by standing behind the massive Heartless.
This is simply a hack-and-slash battle, with no real strategy needed. Simply attack at every opportunity and avoid Darkside's attacks. If you get low on health, defeat the Shadows he spawns as they drop HP orbs, or Cure.

Trivia
- If you can climb Darkside's arm and attack his head, you get tech points for every combo finisher landed.
- It is the third largest known Heartless, behind Groundshaker and World of Chaos.
- Due to it appearing in connection to Destiny Islands, some fans theorize this is the island's heartless.
- In Kingdom Hearts, Darkside had a flap of skin where the heart on his body creases at the top. In Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories this flap of skin was removed for some reason.
