Fights like Oogie's are a reason why I'm not the hugest fan of KH2. It's gimmicky, annoying, and doesn't test your combat skills in any real way.

i'm not so sure. with the zelda bosses, you can continue to try various things, even if they have a shield, for example. there's a specific thing you end up needing to do in order to continue/finish the battle, usually involving dealing enough damage or using a certain item.
with the oogie boogie fight, it's literally dragged out by preventing you from dealing hp damage, and the only thing you can do is wait until he becomes available again

Exactly. It’s not like you’re failing to figure out the puzzle; it’s literally just “firetruck you, you’re not allowed to damage me”.

played a game recently where the boss has a specific hp threshold where it switches to a new phase. not via cutscene, either, just a phase change. the problem is, once you hit that point, you're prevented from doing any damage until he finishes the animation for the phase change (or at the very least, it's difficult to do damage). that's unnecessary: if they didn't want me to be able to do damage, just make it a cutscene or something, don't dangle agency in front of me like a dollar on a string

Oh for sure. Even OOT is like that. The very first boss, for example, climbs up the wall and makes you dodge enemies for a bit before beginning the next phase. Really pointless.
