History YMMV / TheLastBlade

** Speed Mode Moriya, if the teleport glitch mentioned below is utilized and mastered, becomes the most broken character in the game (even more broken than Zantetsu). An already fast and strong character with powerful combo potential becomes an absolute menace who can completely skip neutral for free and recover instantly, leading to not only infinite combos, but insane vortex scenarios as well.
** The most overpowered ''normal'' character in the game, with infinites and Moriya's teleport glitch banned, is Zantetsu. He has a strong moveset no matter what style you choose with him, being able to completely dominate the neutral game with powerful options and an aerial projectile that is difficult for many members of the cast to deal with.

* GameBreaker: ''The Last Blade 2'' is full of this. Multiple characters are able to pull of various [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JX2F7SS420Q infinites]] as well as touch of death combos that will drain an opponents entire lifebar.

* CultClassic: The game has a short-lived lifespan, majorly because it wrapped up its storyline nicely and also for the fact that in terms of weapon-based fighting, it's overshadowed by ''VideoGame/SamuraiShodown'' (and gameplay-wise, from ''VideoGame/TheKingOfFighters''). It still remained as a beloved underground series by a lot of SNK fans and many are happily surprised when characters from there make appearances in crossovers. (Hibiki's appearance in ''Capcom vs SNK 2'' majorly)

** Hibiki Takane, for being a quiet girl that developes into a hardened warrior, to the point where she appears in [[VideoGame/CapcomVsSNK2MarkOfTheMillennium Capcom vs. SNK 2: Mark of the Millennium]].

* SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome: If you're of the EvilIsCool mindset, Setsuna has a big one. [[spoiler:While everyone else's endings in ''The Last Blade 2'' have them freeing Kouryu's spirit in some way, Setsuna forgoes that kind of a heartwarming conclusion and just kills him. He fist holds up Kouryu's battered body by his throat, calls him a ''pansy,'' then kills him in a way that can't be pretty since this is followed by the same shot as before, except Kouryu is no longer being held up by Setsuna, and Setsuna's raised hand is now covered in blood. Setsuna then [[EvilLaugh laughs]], wipes Koryu's blood on his face, and looks badass; roll credits.]]

* CompleteMonster: Setsuna is the most villainous character in ''The Last Blade 2''. Moreso than the first game's BigBad Kagami (now TheAtoner), or the game's own boss, Kouryu. His very first act ''in existence'' was monster-ish; he's a spirit from Hell that escaped when Kagami opened he gate in ''The Last Blade''. As soon as he gets out, he [[{{Squick}} possesses the body of a dead baby, and makes it his own]].

* CompleteMonster: Setsuna. So much so he's the most villainous character in ''The Last Blade 2''. Moreso than the first game's BigBad Kagami (now TheAtoner), or the game's own boss, Kouryu. Hell, his very first act ''in existence'' was monster-ish; he's a spirit from Hell that escaped when Kagami opened he gate in ''The Last Blade''.
