A '''Limit Break''' is a powerful ability introduced in ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]''. During a Limit Break, the user unleashes a tremendous amount of power as an attack that they wouldn't normally be able to perform. The attack is usually based on the user's element or abilities in previous games, such as a combo finisher or [[Limit]]. Unlike a Limit from ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', the character can take damage if attacked while performing a Limit Break, although the damage taken is less. It also heals the character from any status problem and prevents them from getting any status problem.

In order to activate a Limit Break, the user must drop into a low amount of their HP, also known as the '''Alarm Zone'''. This area is marked as being yellow, as opposed to the rest of the green bar. After having dropped into the player's Alarm Zone, a small sound will sound. This means that the player can hold down the "A" button for a few seconds to begin their Limit Break. Once the powerful attack has been triggered, a marker will begin to move down the HP bar, until it reaches the other end. At that point, the Limit Break ends, and the Alarm Zone is set closer to the end of the HP bar. To use the Limit Break again, the player must survive another attack to re-enter the Alarm Zone. The item [[Limit Recharge]] increases the Alarm Zone, and the ability [[Limit Boost]] increases where the Alarm Zone is at the beginning of a mission.
In order to activate a Limit Break, the user must drop into a low amount of their HP, also known as the '''Alarm Zone'''. This area is marked as being yellow, as opposed to the rest of the green bar. After having dropped into the Alarm Zone, a small sound will play; at this point, the Limit Break can be unleashed by holding {{button|dsa}}. Once the powerful attack has been triggered, a white marker will begin to move down the HP bar, until it reaches the far left end. At that point, the Limit Break ends, and the Alarm Zone is set closer to the right end of the HP bar. To use the Limit Break again, the user must survive another attack to re-enter the Alarm Zone.


[[File:Final Limit.png|right]]On Day 225 of the Story Mode, Roxas will receive the Final Limit panel from Saïx, which allows to user to execute their '''Final Limit'''. During a Final Limit, the user's Limit Break is prolonged, doubling the length of the attack. This is because the user will execute a special extra ability during a second part of their Limit Break. This extra attack will become executable when the marker that runs across the HP bar touches the left end of the HP bar. Then, the marker will run backwards to the Alarm Zone; during this time, the special series of an extra attack will begin until the end of the Limit Break. Because of this, the Final Limit's extra ability can only be used during the second half of the Limit Break. It also will always begin in the exact middle of a Limit Break, provided the user does not gain or lose any health in the process.
The placement of the Alarm Zone can be altered by certain panels:
{{TOClimit|limit=1}}
* The [[Limit Recharge]] item increases the Alarm Zone.
==Limit Breaks==
* [[File:Limit Boost KHD.png|right]]The {{nihongo|'''Limit Boost'''|リミットアップ|Rimitto Appu|lit. "Limit Up"}} ability increases where the Alarm Zone is at the beginning of a mission. It can be purchased for 1440 Heart Points from the [[Moogle Shop]], once Roxas is promoted to Agent rank.
===[[Xemnas]]===
* The [[Extreme]] ring has the [[One HP]] ability, which caps the maximum HP at 1, enabling the use of Limit Breaks at all times, even from the start of a mission. Since this places the Alarm Zone at the far right side of the HP bar, this also results in the longest possible duration for a Limit Break.
[[File:Allvanity.png|left|thumb|100px]]
Xemnas's Limit Break is called {{nihongo|'''All-Vanity'''|オールヴァニティ|Ōru Vaniti}}. Xemnas's Final Limit resembles a desperation attack he uses in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Final Mix]]''.

[[File:Final Limit KHD.png|right]]On Day 225 of the Story Mode, Roxas will receive the {{nihongo|'''Final Limit'''|リミットカット|Rimitto Katto|lit. "Limit Cut"}} panel from Saïx, which allows the user to execute their Final Limit. During Final Limit, the user will gain additional attacks not available in a normal Limit Break. Final Limit will activate when a normal Limit Break would end: when the white marker reaches the far left end of the HP bar. The marker will then move back along the HP bar until it reaches the Alarm Zone, at which point Final Limit will end.
*''"Away with you."'' (Limit Break)
*''"You're an eyesore."'' (Final Limit)


===[[Xigbar]]===
[[File:Limit Pass KHD.png|right]]The {{nihongo|'''Limit Pass'''|リミットオープン|Rimitto Ōpun|lit. "Limit Open"}} panel allows for configuring Limit Breaks in Mission Mode, under the "Mission Config" menu. Unlike other Panels, the Limit Pass does not appear in [[Roxas]]'s inventory, and does not need to be equipped to be active. It can be purchased at the [[Moogle Shop]] for 10000<!--check--> [[Heart Point]]s, once all Missions in Mission Mode have been cleared. Three settings are available:
[[File:Criticalsnipe.png|left|thumb|100px]]
*Endless: Allows using Limit Breaks repeatedly, without decreasing the Alarm Zone threshold.
Xigbar's Limit Break is called {{nihongo|'''Critical Snipe'''|クリティカルスナイプ|Kuritikaru Sunaipu}}. Xigbar's Limit Break is very similar to an attack he uses in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', in which he fires at Sora from above in a first-person shooter mode.
*Normal: Allows using Limit Breaks normally.
*Off: Prevents Limit Breaks from being used.

During Firetooth, Axel repeatedly throws his flaming chakrams at Sora, leaving him unable to attack until the Sleight ended. In the [[Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories|remake]], this attack would not end unless Sora ended it with a card break.

Donald's Limit Break is called {{nihongo|'''Fantasia'''|ファンタジア|Fantajia}}. During Fantasia, Donald summons many small, colorful explosions to appear, heavily damaging any enemies that get hit.
 
During Donald's Final Limit, many colorful explosions circle around Donald while he is in midair. The explosions are also somewhat larger, and do much more damage. The explosions start on opposite sides of Donald, and will rotate around him if the attack button is continuously pressed.
 
Donald's Limit Break is practically identical of his [[Limit]]s from ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', called Comet. The name ''Fantasia'' is also the name of the ability that Donald equips to use this Limit.
 
;Quotes
*''"I'm comin' back!"'' (Limit Break)

===[[Goofy]]===
[[File:Teamwork.png|left|thumb|100px]]
Goofy's Limit Break is called {{nihongo|'''Teamwork'''|ウニゾンアスリート|Unizon Asurīto|lit. "Unison Athlete"}}. During Teamwork, Goofy repeatedly launches himself over short distances, leaving a trail of air behind him. Any enemies that Goofy hits take heavy damage. The attack can be charged for greater distance.
 
During Goofy's Final Limit, the player may charge the attack an extra mile so that Goofy may launch himself over a much longer distance. Because of the longer distance traveled, Goofy gathers more acceleration. This adds more force to Goofy's launch, which means that he deals more damage.
 
Goofy's Limit Break is very similar to the final phase of his [[Limit|Knocksmash Limit]] from ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''. In this Limit's final phase, Goofy is launched around the field by Sora, leaving behind the same trail of air that is left behind by his Limit Break. The name ''Teamwork'' is also the name of the ability that Goofy equips to use this Limit.
 
;Quotes
*''"I'm here to help ya!"'' (Limit Break)

===[[Riku]]===
[[File:Darkstrom.png|left|thumb|100px]]
Riku's Limit Break is called {{nihongo|'''Darkstrom'''<!--NOT DARKSTORM.-->|ダークストローム|Dākusutorōmu}}. During Darkstrom, Riku quickly darts around the field with his weapon in front of him, attacking enemies in his way. With each dash, he is surrounded in small but plentiful strands of darkness.
 
During Riku's Final Limit, Riku envelopes his weapon in light, very much like Roxas's and Xion's Limit Breaks. He then makes powerful slash attacks, dealing heavy damage. Although his weapon also becomes enveloped in light, Riku's Final Limit is not as speedy as Roxas's or Xion's Limit Breaks.
 
Riku's Limit Break is very similar to his [[Dark Aura]] [[Sleight]] from ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]''. Both involved dashing around the battle field with the power of darkness. His Final Limit is similar to Master Hearts, a part of his Eternal Session Limit with Sora, which saw Riku and Sora enveloping their Keyblades in energy and slashing the enemy. The light which surrounds his Soul Eater in the Final Limit gives it the appearance it has during part of his Dark Maelstrom attack from ''Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories''.
 
;Quotes
*''"Like I'd ever give up!"'' (Limit Break)
*''"You can't stop me!"'' (Final Limit)
 
===[[Mickey Mouse|The King]]===
[[File:Pearl.png|left|thumb|100px]]
The King's Limit Break is called {{nihongo|'''Holy'''|ホーリー|Hōrī}}. During Holy, the King is surrounded by hovering balls of light around him. He summons thin beams of light to come from above directly onto enemies. He can also charge up to create a thicker and stronger beam of light. If charged up completely, there will be one huge beam and three thinner beams surrounding the huge beam in a triangle formation. The balls of light work as a shield to attack enemies if they get close to the King, and the beams of light deal devastating damage to the enemies that they come directly down upon.
 
During the King's Final Limit, precise timing can make a storm of light rays come down from the sky, as well as two orbs of light being fired from the King. The range for this attack is wide, though it does not guarantee a precise hit on the target as his regular Final Limit does.
 
The King's Limit Break is extremely similar to an ability that can be used by [[Queen Minnie]] in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''. Her ability is also called ''Pearl''. During Queen Minnie's Pearl, Queen Minnie summons large pillars of light to strike enemies. However, the pillars of light in Queen Minnie's ability do not come directly down on enemies like those in King Mickey's Limit Break do.
 
The King's Limit Break is also similar in name and ability to the spell he uses in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'' by pressing {{button|s}} when playing as King Mickey. The magic spell itself is derived from the magic spell of the same name from the Final Fantasy series, which today remains as the sole offensive White Magic spell.
 
;Quotes
*''"Here goes!"'' (Limit Break)
*''"Gotta win!"'' (Final Limit)
 
===[[Sora]]===
[[File:Ragnarok Sora.png|left|thumb|100px]]
Sora's Limit Break is called {{nihongo|'''[[Ragnarok]]'''|ラグナロク|Ragunaroku}}. During Ragnarok, Sora is lifted into the air. While airborne, Sora gathers thin lasers into a sphere, and then fires them after they have charged up, signified by a white flash. Once the lasers are released, they home in on enemies, dealing great damage to those hit. If the lasers are fired right as the flash occurs, Sora will be surrounded by a web of light, and more lasers will be fired.
 
During Sora's Final Limit, Sora releases a trio of spinning capsule-shaped beams along with the lasers. The trio of orange beams travels in a straight line, dealing devastating damage to enemies in its path. Like the regular Limit Break, the number of lasers fired can be increased by firing them right as the flash occurs.
 
Sora's Limit Break originated as one of the obtainable Limit attacks in ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'' , a [[Sleight]] he can use in ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]'', and an ability accessible through [[Limit Form]] in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix]]''.
 
;Quotes
*''"Give me strength!"'' (Limit Break)
*''"Light!"'' (Final Limit)
 
===[[Roxas|Dual-Wield Roxas]]===
[[File:Magichour.png|left|thumb|100px]]
Dual-Wield Roxas's Limit Break is called {{nihongo|'''Magic Hour'''|マジックアワー|Majikku Awā}} and is similar to Zexion's Limit Break. During Magic Hour, Roxas leaps into the air and shoots up a beam of light with his joined Keyblades. By doing so, he summons many large pillars of light to repeatedly come down onto the battle field. Enemies that get hit take devastating damage.
 
During Dual-Wield Roxas's Final Limit, Roxas uses even more power. Roxas himself even becomes coated in light during this Final Limit. The pillars of light that he summons are even larger and faster, and deal an even greater amount of damage.
 
To cancel the attack and move to a better position, press B, while to resume, press A.
 
Dual-Wield Roxas's Final Limit originates from a similar attack used by [[Xion (Boss)|Xion]] in her Final Form.
 
Magic hour is the best photographic time to shoot the sun (usually at dawn or dusk).

This article is about the ability from Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days.
You may be looking for the ability from Kingdom Hearts II.

A Limit Break (リミットブレイク Rimitto Bureiku?) is a powerful ability introduced in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. During a Limit Break, the user unleashes a tremendous amount of power as an attack that they wouldn't normally be able to perform. The attack is usually based on the user's element or abilities in previous games, such as a combo finisher or Limit. Unlike a Limit from Kingdom Hearts II, the character can take damage if attacked while performing a Limit Break, although the damage taken is less. It also heals the character from any negative status effect, and prevents them from getting any status effects.

In order to activate a Limit Break, the user must drop into a low amount of their HP, also known as the Alarm Zone. This area is marked as being yellow, as opposed to the rest of the green bar. After having dropped into the Alarm Zone, a small sound will play; at this point, the Limit Break can be unleashed by holding A. Once the powerful attack has been triggered, a white marker will begin to move down the HP bar, until it reaches the far left end. At that point, the Limit Break ends, and the Alarm Zone is set closer to the right end of the HP bar. To use the Limit Break again, the user must survive another attack to re-enter the Alarm Zone.

The placement of the Alarm Zone can be altered by certain panels:

  • The Limit Recharge item increases the Alarm Zone.
  • Limit Boost KHD.png
    The Limit Boost (リミットアップ Rimitto Appu?, lit. "Limit Up") ability increases where the Alarm Zone is at the beginning of a mission. It can be purchased for 1440 Heart Points from the Moogle Shop, once Roxas is promoted to Agent rank.
  • The Extreme ring has the One HP ability, which caps the maximum HP at 1, enabling the use of Limit Breaks at all times, even from the start of a mission. Since this places the Alarm Zone at the far right side of the HP bar, this also results in the longest possible duration for a Limit Break.
Final Limit KHD.png

On Day 225 of the Story Mode, Roxas will receive the Final Limit (リミットカット Rimitto Katto?, lit. "Limit Cut") panel from Saïx, which allows the user to execute their Final Limit. During Final Limit, the user will gain additional attacks not available in a normal Limit Break. Final Limit will activate when a normal Limit Break would end: when the white marker reaches the far left end of the HP bar. The marker will then move back along the HP bar until it reaches the Alarm Zone, at which point Final Limit will end.

Limit Pass KHD.png

The Limit Pass (リミットオープン Rimitto Ōpun?, lit. "Limit Open") panel allows for configuring Limit Breaks in Mission Mode, under the "Mission Config" menu. Unlike other Panels, the Limit Pass does not appear in Roxas's inventory, and does not need to be equipped to be active. It can be purchased at the Moogle Shop for 10000 Heart Points, once all Missions in Mission Mode have been cleared. Three settings are available:

  • Endless: Allows using Limit Breaks repeatedly, without decreasing the Alarm Zone threshold.
  • Normal: Allows using Limit Breaks normally.
  • Off: Prevents Limit Breaks from being used.

Trivia[edit]

  • When Organization XIII members activate their Limit Breaks, thorn beams similar to the ones that Xemnas and the Twilight Thorn use in their boss battles will surround them for a brief moment.
  • When the Limit Boost panel is equipped, the alarm does not sound until your health is reduced to about a fourth of what it was.
