* The third game has Kimmy Love. Kimmy Howell from the second game was a fangirl of Travis he spared for being too young and inexperienced. So, she grew up and became far more dangerous, this time worthy to die by Travis' hand.
* After everything FU put everyone through, the long, grueling fight against him is cathartic.
* The true final battle against [[CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass Damon]]. After Damon had to act as FU's subordinate for the entire game, he turns the tables on him, then goes after you. You fight him in an arena resembling Smash Bros.

* Destroyman is a complete psychopath. And he has machine gun nipples, and a crotch cannon. It's no wonder [[spoiler: they brought him back in the sequel. The sequel's incarnation, incidentally, takes place in a large warehouse with an upper area, and the boss himself now consists of his two seperated halves.]]

* [[spoiler:Jeanne]] is fast to the point of hilarity and can counter your grab moves. She is also one of the only times when [[spoiler:charged strikes are]] really effective.
* [[spoiler: Henry]] is the exact boss you've been waiting for. A beam claymore, high flying martial arts, plenty of health, and an [[MeteorMove awesome instant kill]]. [[spoiler: You fight your twin brother as a boss with the same basic attacks.]]

* [[spoiler:Jasper Batt Jr.]] is disappointing to some, namely due to being an infamous case of ThatOneBoss. However, looking at a different light, it may be on this list. A Three. Part. Boss Fight. And yet, they cleverly avoided RousseauWasRight with the revenge theme by making the entire thing ridiculously camp. It also ties into Travis's character development in realizing revenge isn't worth it due to the boss's stupid appearance, as he goes from a tiny dweeb in a flying car to a roided up Superman knockoff to a '''fucking parade float'''. Lampshaded by Henry.

* Rank 7 Ryujii, while the first part on bikes is annoying, the battle itself is amazing. His fight is quite difficult, but it's not unfair and it feels awsome once you finally defeat him.

* ''NoMoreHeroes 2'' has many more incredible boss battles, such as Charlie [=MacDonald=]. You arrive in a football stadium and meet up with a bonehead jock and cheerleader cohorts. What kind of fight do you get? A giant fucking robot battle in the middle of Santa Destroy, of course.

* Dr. Peace stands on the pitching mound of a baseball stadium, effortlessly parrying your lightsaber with his trusty six-shooters, which he also casually fires at you, while music plays which can only be described as 'Wild West Techno.' And his introductory song, his other SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic can be played [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1PYMZVuse4U here]].

While I\'m at it, though, per Handling Spoilers, never put the ENTIRE example in spoilers.

And his introductory song, his other SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic can be played [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1PYMZVuse4U here]].
* Rank 8 boss Shinobu. As [[WakeUpCallBoss the first boss where blindly attacking is a good way to die quickly]], the resulting fight is extremely tense and very cool, the majority of which will be spent silently circling your opponent waiting for an opening.
* Destroyman is a complete psychopath. And he has machine gun nipples, and a crotch cannon. It's no wonder [[spoiler: they brought him back in the sequel. The sequel's incarnation, incidentally, takes place in a large warehouse with an upper area, and the boss himself now consists of his two seperated halves.]]
* Harvey Moiseiwitsch Volodarskii, a stage magician armed with DualWielding [[LaserBlade Laser Blades]], death traps, and InterfaceScrew.
* Speed Buster, sees you in a RuinsForRuinsSake cleared-out street, and consists of you trying to avoid her insanely powerful weapon by smashing your way into abandoned buildings and edging up, whilst fighting yakuza hitmen, and wrestling her giant laser cannon with your katana, to simply make it to where she stands.
* Bad Girl from the first game has by far the largest library of attacks in the series (some of which evolve throughout the battle), employs a [[WoundedGazelleGambit devious one-hit kill move]] (which you can turn against her if you know how), [[FlunkyBoss summons mooks]] (by hitting them off of a gimp conveyor belt (!!!), and you can [[TennisBoss hit them back]]) and possesses a large enough lifebar for a satisfying battle. She is easily one of the most memorable fights of the entire series,due to both her insanity and her...[[{{Fanservice}} fascinating visual design.]]
* [[spoiler:Jeanne]] is fast to the point of hilarity and can counter your grab moves. She is also one of the only times when [[spoiler:charged strikes are]] really effective.
* [[spoiler: Henry]] is the exact boss you've been waiting for. A beam claymore, high flying martial arts, plenty of health, and an [[MeteorMove awesome instant kill]]. [[spoiler: You fight your twin brother as a boss with the same basic attacks.]]
* ''NoMoreHeroes 2'' has many more incredible boss battles, such as have Charlie [=MacDonald=]. You arrive in a football stadium and meet up with a bonehead jock and cheerleader cohorts. What kind of fight do you get? A giant fucking robot battle in the middle of Santa Destroy, of course.
* Margaret Moonlight, an ElegantGothicLolita armed with a laser guided sniper rifle dual scythes. Seems they really weren't holding back the crazy in this game. And her SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic, a [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech song insulting both Travis and the average gamer]].
* Matt Helms, a horror movie {{pastiche}}, with an flamethrower-axe and molotov cocktails. The battle area seems small at first, but is mostly completely destructible.
* Mimmy, not particularly the boss herself, but rather the actual fight. [[spoiler: You play as 'Mister Sir' Henry 'Motherfucker' Cooldown. You get to play as the Best Boss Ever.]]
* The Rank Three, Captain Vladimir, is a former Soviet cosmonaut who had been lost in space for who-knows-how-long with robotic tentacle arms. And a goddamn KillSat.
* The fight against Alice Twilight, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMl3Mlsjhzc features one of the most tragic finales to a boss fight ever.]]
* [[spoiler: Jasper Batt Jr. is, to some, dissapointing, but looking at a different light, it may be on this list. A Three. Part. Boss Fight. And yet, they cleverly avoided RousseauWasRight with the revenge theme by making the entire thing ridiculously camp. Lampshaded by Henry.]]
--> It's not happening, brother. I can't be associated with that travesty. I've got standards for fuck's sake.
* Rank 7 Ryujii, while the first part on bikes is annoying, the battle itself is amazing. His fight is quite difficult, but it's not unfair and it feels awsome once you finally defeat him.
