* In ''this corner'', weighing in at 110 pounds soaking wet and riding the robotic form of Mineru, Sage of Spirit, Link the Hero of Hyrule! His opponent, weighing in at… a ''lot'', the Scourge of the Spirit Temple, the Seized Construct! Indeed, this boss fight is like a boxing match between two [[Humongous Mecha]]s in [[Death Course|a ring with electrified ropes and a floor made of Gloom]], whoever thought this up was a genius.
* Phantom Ganon, or rather, [[Wolfpack Boss| Phantom Ganons]], plural. WhatThe confrontation in the main line quest probably won't be the first time you fight one of them (one always spawns if a Gloom Hands is destroyed), but what could be cooler than fighting these shadowy clones of Ganondorf in the decayed ruins of the throne room of Hyrule Castle? What makes it even more awesome is having the Sages’ avatars there with you, making it a five-on-five hero-team-versus-villain-team free-for-all. Only thing that might have made it more awesome is if the Sages were there in person (rather than show up at the cutscene afterwards) but that seems to have been necessary for sake of plot, with the [[You Are Not Alone]] theme of the game.
* Ahem, '''Master Kohga!'''. Really! Still a [[Laughably Evil]] comic relief villain, but as a boss, much, much better than the big joke he was in [[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild| the previous game]]. You fight him four times, and each time he uses a different Zonai-constructed vehicle, first a tank, then a flying machine, then a motorboat (possibly inspired by the one in ''[[Live and Let Die (film)|Live and Let Die]]''), and finally a [[Humongous Mecha]] like the one against the Seized Construct. Evil as he is, it’s hard not to say, ''“Glory to Master Kohga!”''
* As mentioned above, the Gleeox were among the coolest (and toughest) bosses in previous games, and here, they are back ''with a vengeance''. These three-headed monstrosities seem to have taken more inspiration from [[Kaiju| King Ghidorah]] than anything else, and come in threefour varieties, depending on their [[Breath Weapon]]: Fire, Ice, Lightning, and King Gleeox, which has all three, one for each head. Their breath attacks are more like [[Frickin' Laser Beams]] than a typical dragon’s breath and can burn, freeze, or stun Link if he doesn't get out of the way ''fast''. Of course, they can fly, and given how ''high'' they attack from, you will ''not'' be able to fight them without proper preparation. (Keese Eyes, preferably of the opposing element and a decent bow are a must.) Another cool thing about these bosses is that when reduced to about a fourth of their health, they gain a new powerful attack, Fire Gleeox has a giant fireball (kind of like [[Dragon Ball| Goku’s Kamehameha attack]]) Ice Gleeox cause huge icicles to fall from the sky, and Lightning Gleeox cause a violent thunderstorm to erupt over the fighting area. And again, King Gleeox can do all three. Fighting these beasts are truly andan epic experience, and defeating them is very satisfying.
