Sephiroth in Kingdom Hearts 2 and Vanguard in the tutorial level of Demons Souls!!
Both are close to impossible.

Tutorial Vanguard is quite easy if you are proficient at dodging, as you need to get out of the way from his first two swings and position yourself in an Southwestern position near his left leg.

This will cause a glitch in the Vanguard AI, and the only move he'll ever use is the Flying butt stomp which is fairly easy to dodge. Just kept hitting him, whenever you see him fly, get away, and when he hits the ground immediatly go back to hit him. I've killed him with pretty much every class using this, even the painstakingly slow Temple Knight. 

True.  But without a guide it takes several times of replaying the entire tutorial level to figure that out.  For that matter, the Flamelurker on New Game + is ridiculous if you don't use the hiding behind the ribcage maneuver.

Actually I didn't even use a guide for this one :P 

First time I went through the game as a Knight I managed to get him to half his HP before his swing hit me.

Flamelurker is an entirely different beast. He gets harder and harder as each new NG+ comes and goes. On NG+5 his AoE fire spell can take over 800 HP, even with 450 Fire Resistance like my Platinum Character had. I managed to beat him all the time in a straight fight though, with the Dragon Bone Smasher +5 and Sticky White Stuff.
