So, I feel like this needs to be said, because my god this is just amazing. Saying it now, I honestly think this is cooler than Green Orange's TLB. Spoilers ahead in my comment friends! No really, there are big spoilers. I think what I love about this is who you are fighting. The name says the Erasure Fighter and tells you you're fighting the ZeroRanger version of the Primordial Fighter, but it is abundantly clear that the actual boss is Erasure herself. That static image of her appearing in the final phase is a phenomenal way to convey that without saying it directly. And in the end it makes sense. The final Boss of Green Orange is Despair, and her true form as the Lotus Jewel, so why shouldn't the final boss of White Vanilla be Despair's Sister, Erasure. Thematically, it simply put, makes sense, especially with how the ending frames it as a training simulation created by Erasure. As for the patterns themselves, they call back to both Despair and the Lotus Jewel in a way that is a serious challenge. Also the visuals, I love how it goes through everything until it ends on the backdrop for the fight against Grapefruit, which as the turning point for progressing to 2-4, is just awe inspiring. Combine that with Erasure appearing holding her jewel and it visually amazing. And the music! I love Sacred Defender, because I have a love of ominous choirs (Thank you Kingdom Hearts) and music that is able to sound both hopeless and hopeful at the same time. But because the stakes are much lower in this fight, For your Security/Safety is high energy, calls back to 4th gear and Unstopping to give a sense that Erasure, while wanting to stop you, also wants you to press on at the same time. It is the perfect music for this battle, and just makes this whole battle, honestly in my opinion, perfect. I love this. It is amazing. ZeroRanger is easily the best Shoot 'em Up I've ever played, up there with Blue Revolver. Edit: For you Security calls back to Her Song. Christ, how did I miss that? Now I love it even more.
Just went through this fight myself (though you don't have to go from the beginning like the video says. Woulda pulled my hair out with the amount of tries i had to do this on), thing is bloody fantastic. Also, picked up blue revolver recently, super dope.
Each character seems to have a melody of their own. Grapefruit has theirs with "Sky" in the name, and Erasure's seems to also be the game's main theme (Brewing, Comforting Chococcino, Boiling, 4th gear, Unstopping, Her Song)
Hey I think there is a special way to finish this boss that gives us a special power. whenever the "magic symbols" are on the boss, it moves away from you, in some points the symbols go away (usually shoots those black orbs) during those moments you can go on him ,and the "powering up" animations starts as if you where absorbing him. I believe that if you manage to complete the animation you would obtain a new power. (since even when you finish the game you can see 8 power slots, but 6 are present (side and back shots, charged and aimed shot, drill and sword)
/SPOILERS/ /(for void stranger & zero ranger) ... The text under the Endless Fighter's intro translates to "SAKRA DEVANAM", which is an epithet in Buddhism awarded to the Divine Ruler of Trāyastriṃśa, the Heaven that lies at the heart of the world, and the highest Heaven which remains directly accessible to mortals. Interestingly, when we learn the Primordial Fighter's name at the end of Void Stranger, it is "DEVANAM INDRAH SAKRA", another, slightly twisted up variation of this title. Could this be because they're both cast off parts of the same whole? (Also, during the last instant before she shatters the screen, Erasure's arms move outwards and it looks like she's doing a Mudra for a few seconds. I can't tell exactly which one though, the distortion makes it hard to see the exact placement of fingers)
well one thing - but SPOILERS for Green Orange endgame After you defeat the True Last Boss and change the timeline, the Light Mode's boss changes to the Endless Fighter *Zer0ranger* - the fight is endless: instead of hard 2-minute time limit, you have a 1-minute limit which is extendable by cracking the orb, and collecting ES bonus drops, and the whole fight loops until you run out of time or die.

Erasure-chan makes a great Ex Boss

Tfw you realize that the Stage 4 themes were incorporating Her Song the whole time
am I the only one who doesn't understand the plot of this game in the slightest

Wait... this mode also has Green Orange and Great Oppressor versions...?
If you’ve beaten green orange, White Vanilla becomes “Light Mode”
Light mode final boss is alot harder since the boss loops 3 times.
I would have never figured this out on my own. Thanks!
It's a shame the only thing I have is a switch, I'd love to get this for myself even with seeing some of the plot points
OMG fighting erasure as the final boss goes so hard
well one thing - but SPOILERS for Green Orange endgame
After you defeat the True Last Boss and change the timeline, the Light Mode's boss changes to the Endless Fighter *Zer0ranger* - the fight is endless: instead of hard 2-minute time limit, you have a 1-minute limit which is extendable by cracking the orb, and collecting ES bonus drops, and the whole fight loops until you run out of time or die.
What if we hug the gem on the EX Stage?
It skips the intro to the boss and the jewel instantly gets its first crack.
