Kathwack appears as [[Kiryl]]'s Coup-de-Grâce, carrying over from [[Dragon Quest: Monster Battle Road]]. After trying and failing to cast Thwack multiple times, Kiryl becomes annoyed and stomps on the text windows in frustration, before casting a souped-up version of Kathwack, which annihilates groups of enemies with waves of darkness. This version of Kathwack causes damage, rather than instant death. This is a reference to Kiryl's AI in the NES version of ''Dragon Quest IV'', where Kiryl would infamously cast the Whack and Thwack spells constantly in battle to no effect.
