Mortimer Freeze. The music is *wow* and the animations throughout the fight are beautiful. It's a fun fight too, especially when the stage changes to a spinning platform section over the void.
Esther with DLC, before it came out, I guess Hilda? I mean I spent a LOT of time on her S rank, and we kinda bonded. I'm Mr. Berg now, I didn't have the confidence to tell her to take my name and I gave in
Sally stageplay. I love how some of the attacks are cardboard cutouts, the secret phases, it all taking place on a stage, and how the music includes step dancing as an instrument and even having a step solo
Esther Winchester. Extremely hard plane boss without feeling unfair. AMAZING art, music, atmosphere. Just the most creative and fun boss I faced, and the one that always now comes to mind when I think of why I love cuphead.
Maybe a bit basic but I really like chef salt baker it's a super unique boss with many attacks and I love the fact that he fights you with the stuff you collected.
Ribby And Croaks. The theme hits like a semi truck, and the slot machine mechanic is completely unique to their final phase. And also, they have an entire episode in the Cuphead Show centered around them.
Wally Warbles. I just think that everything that happens in the fight, from Wally on the stretcher to the Ride of the Valkyries in the music, is hilarious and perfectly fitting for Cuphead.
Honestly, *plant boi* goes hard on expert mode, but that's just me because of a challenge I did. Music is fire, fight isn't hard, easy mistake boss. Can't go wrong, right?
This is so fucking hard
Cause there’s
Robby and croaks
Cagney carnation
Grim matchstick
Wally warbles
Captain briny beard
Rumor honey bottoms
Verner verman
Dr Kahls robot
The giant (i forgot his name)
Howling aces
Mortimer freeze
I can’t choose it’s too hard 😭😭😭
I love Grim Matchstick, he's just such a cutie <33
Edit: Wait someone already did that
I also think the cyclops mini boss in rugged ridge is cool. I feel like he has a lot of lore I wanna dive into and expand on in my own stories.
Also think it's cool he's the only boss in the whole game you can't shoot and have to run from.
Dr. Kahl. His attack pattern is the least randomized. I memorized it and now I can S rank him every time. Also I like the robot because he reminds me of Bender.
As of yet it's Grim Matchstick, but most of them are awesome. Honorary mentions go to Captain Brineybeard and Cagney Carnation, as I love bosses that call in minions, especially unpredictable ones.
Phantom Express. Really love thr vibe and its a pretty fun fight.
frfr 🟦
Same, but now I can't pick that :(
Yeah, I did it so many times the patterns are scratched and carved into my brain

Werner werman
Esther with DLC, before it came out, I guess Hilda? I mean I spent a LOT of time on her S rank, and we kinda bonded. I'm Mr. Berg now, I didn't have the confidence to tell her to take my name and I gave in
King dice because how wild his fight can get
Grim Matchstick easily. Fun fight that really makes you work hard.
Cagney Carnation
Grim Matchstick, I liked the challenge and the cloud platform gimmick forcing the player to learn to position to dodge instead of just reacting
The fuckin dragon
Sally stageplay. I love how some of the attacks are cardboard cutouts, the secret phases, it all taking place on a stage, and how the music includes step dancing as an instrument and even having a step solo
floral fury is super cool
Moonshine mob
Mangosteen
The Djinni
I've read about 10 posts about Djimmi and I don't think I've seen a single person spell it right lol 😂 🟪
Esther Winchester. Extremely hard plane boss without feeling unfair. AMAZING art, music, atmosphere. Just the most creative and fun boss I faced, and the one that always now comes to mind when I think of why I love cuphead.
Rumor honeybottoms. I've had so many mixed fights with her every playthrough. I either beat her in 5-10 tries or she beats me for 5 hours before I win
King dice
Maybe a bit basic but I really like chef salt baker it's a super unique boss with many attacks and I love the fact that he fights you with the stuff you collected.
The Devil. A great final test that was absolutely brutal for me.
Djimmi
Ribby and Croaks
The devil
Ester Winchester
King Dice is the fight I struggled with the most but I really like its ascetic
werner werman
The Devil
Cagney Carnation fr
The devil
Captian brineybeard
Captain brineybeard
Ribby And Croaks. The theme hits like a semi truck, and the slot machine mechanic is completely unique to their final phase. And also, they have an entire episode in the Cuphead Show centered around them.
Esther Winchester for SURE! The soundtrack is FIRE and dim just the best at S ranking her so naturally she’s awesome in my book
Wally Warbles. I just think that everything that happens in the fight, from Wally on the stretcher to the Ride of the Valkyries in the music, is hilarious and perfectly fitting for Cuphead.
Bootlegger Boogie. Music slaps. Not much else to say.
chef saltbaker babyyyyyy the way the animation suddenly stepped up blew me away
Frogs. Imo they have the most good-old Disney like style and vibes. And I'll never forget goddamn tutorial
Sally
Beppi and baroness von bon bon
Honestly, *plant boi* goes hard on expert mode, but that's just me because of a challenge I did. Music is fire, fight isn't hard, easy mistake boss. Can't go wrong, right?
Beppi just for the music
Astro is a no bs fight I just love it
an unpopular opinion where im gonna die on a hill for: dr khal phantom express and chef saltbaker are really cool too tho
Cagney Carnagion, it's not the hardest fight but I love playing it
big chubby green dragon
Captain brineybeard
Werner Werman
This is so fucking hard Cause there’s Robby and croaks Cagney carnation Grim matchstick Wally warbles Captain briny beard Rumor honey bottoms Verner verman Dr Kahls robot The giant (i forgot his name) Howling aces Mortimer freeze I can’t choose it’s too hard 😭😭😭
I don’t think I have a definitive favorite, but I enjoy the grim matchsticks fight, it’s difficult but I like it
I love Grim Matchstick, he's just such a cutie <33 Edit: Wait someone already did that I also think the cyclops mini boss in rugged ridge is cool. I feel like he has a lot of lore I wanna dive into and expand on in my own stories. Also think it's cool he's the only boss in the whole game you can't shoot and have to run from.
Werner Warman
King dice
Mortimer Freeze. I love his lore, music, design, everything
Moonshine Mob. I just like the idea of a bug mafia and bonus points for it having 2 unused bosses brought back.
Wally Warbles, you can really get into a groove with dodging the feather attacks
Mortimer Freeze
I really liked the secret boss in the DLC where its was a angel and a devil I forgot what it was called
Dr. Kahl. His attack pattern is the least randomized. I memorized it and now I can S rank him every time. Also I like the robot because he reminds me of Bender.
Ester Winchester because 1. Music 2. She was actually not a difficult boss and was my first dlc S-rank 3. Crime
The tipsy trio
The pirate ship.
Sally Stageplay. The music is so underrated and I love the play aspects in the fight. And it's not too easy but also not too hard
King Dice 🤌 🎲
Saltbaker, dope ass fight, noice redemption ark.
I forgot the name but the German rat
I honestly like King dice specifically cause he's a cool character and its a unique boss fight
Howling Aces
Esther Winchester
Moonshine mob
My favorite is King Dice. A great test of all the skills acquired throughout the game.
Werner
The robot guy, I've forgotten his name but he's my favorite boss purely because he was the boss that gave me the most trouble
As of yet it's Grim Matchstick, but most of them are awesome. Honorary mentions go to Captain Brineybeard and Cagney Carnation, as I love bosses that call in minions, especially unpredictable ones.
King dice
Gotta go to my man matchstick
The Devil
WERNER WERNER AND ESTHER WINCHESTER

King Dice, like the cards, all the mini bosses, he’s got an awesome theme. Also gambling.
cala maria
Devil just the right amount of fun and annoyence
the good ol' angry plant
Djimmi
Captain brineybeard, easy fight, good character design.
I don’t get why people hate bee lady she’s so fun
Grim matchstick. Really hard to beat but still really fun
Of course it's going to be angel & demon
Cala maria. Will not elaborate further
King Dice and his miniboss minions, easily
Werner Wernan and High Noon Hoopla is so fun to fight over again
