In No More Heroes 3, players will once again step into the shoes of Travis Touchdown. In this latest entry, Travis is working his way up the assassination charts, but this time he's facing off against a squad of powerful aliens that are trying to take over planet Earth. Many of the bosses in No More Heroes 3 revolve around the typical hack and slash combat that the series is known for. However, a boss fight with an alien that goes by Sonic Juice switches things up a bit.
Sonic Juice Boss Fight
Once players come face to face with Sonic Juice, they may think that they're about to start a normal boss encounter, but Sonic Juice isn't a fan of action combat, so he instead challenges Travis Touchdown to a traditional turn-based battle, similar to Final Fantasy. Players will suddenly have a command menu to choose from, as well as an HP bar and battery level for their weapon.

With the command menu, players have several options here. They can choose to Fight, which is a normal attack; they can use Magic, attempt to summon a powerful monster, charge their battery, use a No More Heroes 3 item, or run away from the boss fight.
How to Beat Sonic Juice
Once players start to damage Sonic Juice with either regular attacks or Magic, they might notice that these moves don't seem to affect Sonic Juice at all. The solution to defeating Sonic Juice is more of a puzzle than anything, as players can not win by simply attacking the boss –instead, players need to stop the turn-based RPG battle itself.
No More Heroes 3 players can bring an end to this fight by attacking the command windows instead of the boss. Once Travis' command windows are destroyed, a cutscene will happen, and then players will transition over to a real boss fight with Sonic Juice, and it's much easier. Players just need to slash away at Sonic Juice when they are close to the stage. Avoid as many of their attacks as possible and keep doing damage to being the ranked match to an end.
If any players are having trouble defeating the boss without losing, make sure to buy healing sushi items from the sushi vendor before the fight. There's no way to change No More Heroes 3's difficulty, so players will have to stick with their choice, no matter how difficult.
No More Heroes 3 is now available as a Nintendo Switch exclusive.
