Not entirely sure, I'll check that right now.
Edit: Nope, the patch still retains your health as it was before the drop. Wonder if they'll bother with a second patch to at least bring it up to par with the international version.

Why not just have it to where neither the boss's, nor Sora/Riku's health is restored? I'd honestly prefer that.

I agree, but what if you make a mistake in the battle? It's better to start from scratch.
I'm curious as to if you drop during secret boss battles.

Yeah, you can drop during those battles, too.

Man, Julius is hard to fight! Glad I almost got-
DROP: RIKU
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-
I personally wouldn't have mind if they didn't change it so it would've been more challenging lol. But yeah it's nice it's more fair/forgiving now.

How did they miss something like this, though? Just...how?
And does your health get replenished every time you drop or just for boss battles? Honestly, though, I'd much prefer it if they had both the health of the boss and the player stay the same when you drop. I always take forever with boss battles, so I'll probably find myself stuck in an endless loop of basically restarting the same battle for the rest of eternity. Lovely~

Actually, this is a really good change. 
I wasn't aware of that health problem in the games, because I've been trying to avoid news on them. But the initial version sounds ridiculously frustrating, so I welcome the change for our version.

Fuck all that, I don't wanna drop during a challenging boss battle that took me forever to get to the end of only to have to start over.
I remember watching the Japanese live streams and getting frustrated whenever a character got Dropped in the middle of a battle, came back and had to fight a fully healed boss while the player was screwed. I'm glad they fixed this, it would have been so much more needlessly complicated otherwise.

This confuses me some. Am I reading this correctly?
So you're fighting a boss as let's say Riku. Boss is almost dead, but then you have to drop. Once you finally get back to Riku, both he and the boss are back at full health. Or does only one get healed?
Frankly, I really wish the drop meter would stop during boss fights period. They're just making the game too easy if you are healed after a drop, and they are also making it too hard if the boss heals in my opinion. I've also heard that characters can get certain temporary power ups after drops. Again, to me at least, this is too much babying to the player. Struggling with a boss? Well get the heck over it, go back a little, and grind for at least a couple more levels. Or try and obtain different items, whatever.

Oh fluff and stuff. *unleashes massively powered combo* No honey here either *waddles off*
EDIT: Swordsy, what happened is in the JP version if you dropped during a boss battle and returned, their HP would refill but yours wouldn't. this patch makes it so when you drop back into a boss battle your HP is restored as well, putting it back on equal ground.
I don't mind, one of my complaints was that boss battles are too short anyways
You both get healed, so I guess it is just right then?
You don't have to use the power ups when you drop, it's entirely up to you as far as I know. You can just switch without getting anything. So it's just an option for those who wish to use it.
Hmmm, well I do like the idea of prolonged boss fights, but still, the whole healing thing really seems unecessary and it just feels like they're making it too easy. I mean, picture this:
You're fighting some boss as Riku, and the boss is about to do a real powerful attack. Before you can react, the drop meter kicks in. So when you get back to Riku, you should remember to immediatly defend or dodge (scribble down a quick note or something). But no, instead everything is healed when you get back so the peril has gone down.
I mean if they're really going to include this drop meter in the boss fights, and this far into the series with an entry that's all about Sora and Riku growing up and going up in rank, they should actually make it that challenging. Maybe it won't be like this in the harder difficulties. I don't mean to gripe, it's just I'm more than a little fed up with some game developers making their newer games practically only for newer younger gamers, but that's another can of worms, lol.

I wonder if they'll tweak boss HP, too. I don't know how I triggered it, but during one boss fight, I dropped and switched to Riku. When I switched back to Sora, not only was the boss at full health again, but it had an entire extra bar of HP that wasn't there before.
