I love how the sword saint has attacks that are reminiscent of other bosses in the game for example: Corrupted monk’s retreating slash, snake eye’s gunfire, seven spear’s spear thrust and swipe, Genichiro’s lightning and divine dragon’s air blade slash, owl’s ground slam. This boss truly checks your skills.

What I love the most about this fight is how, in the end, Isshin had everything he wanted. He wanted to fight Sekiro to have an honorable duel with him, but he also didn't like Genichiro's idea of using Kuro's blood to restore Ashina's glory. So in the end, he had the duel of his lifetime with Sekiro and Genichiro's plan failed, as he hoped.

[@anwpecirotan]

Idk pulling out Glock out of nowhere considered a honorable duel

[@shanemcnelis2667]

True, Isshin's one regret was that he did not live to be bested by a greater foe. Whereas in the Shura ending, Isshin dies without hope, unable to defeat Wolf, in the other endings he gets to die with honor and take pride in being bested in combat by Wolf. It's a good ending for him, even though his clan came to ruin.

​@@nguyeninhtri1155 Listen, when the final boss battle is 2 cutscenes that need skipping, a repeat of a previous boss and then a 3 stage bossfight where he pulls some new bullshit moveset in every phase /and there is no in-boss checkpoint/, I don't give a shit anymore. Genichiro is an awesome evenly matched fight, high speed fight. Lady Butterfly is an awesome deflect/counter/pressure pressure fight. Phase 1 of Ishin is an awesome bossgfight - but phase 2 & 3 are. just. not. And by the time I get there, that 2&3 are readable to where I feel competent deflecting everything, Genichiro has more new neck-holes than he has intact skin left and all fun has exited the game. Which is exactly what happened in the video - Genichiro and phase 1 were over in like less than 2 minutes each by playing it the 'Sekiro' way, but fuck the phases after that. If Ishin wants to pull out some long range attacks, AoE and projectile spam like a Dark Souls boss, he better be prepared to go down like one.

[@nguyeninhtri1155]

@@Sareth94 yeah he does pull some bs out of nowhere and like you said, genichiro and isshin's first phase didn't even matter after a while. But phase 2 and 3 were very exciting as you can see him getting tools he didn't have previously which gives you a sense that he is not exactly human anymore and gives you a sense of duty to defeat him, to save Japan. And the fact that everything you have done has lead to this moment makes you wanna fight the boss the "Sekiro" way as then it would be a strong way of showing that you have bested the game and have overcome it. Then again, everyone has their own opinion and I'm not going to criticize your preferences, your experience with Sekiro is probably very different from mine.

I think another thing that sets Sekiro apart from its Soulsborne cousins is his speed. You're usually weighed down by your European armor, but Sekiro can jump and run like a bat out of hell.

[@SeismicHammer]

Bloodbourne doesn't have heavy armor though. Sekiro is certainly faster paced, but the idea that Japanese armor or swords are lighter is weird. Steel is very dense, and katanas and longswords are actually similar weight. Sekiro is simply wearing less armor.

[@tangytablets5150]

@@SeismicHammer i think its more of the design of the blade that contributes to its cumbersomeness. Katanas were curved and thinned out to allow quick and fluid cuts with near precise slicing while Western swords are straight and very heavy in certain areas that they have to be wielded in a way that uses the weight to help cut the opponent down.

[@SeismicHammer]

@@tangytablets5150 It's partly to do with role. Katana were originally cavalry swords, so they are designed for slashing, whereas longswords were infantry weapons. European sabers were also curved for similar reasons. Regardless, both were about 3 feet long and of similar width, so they weighed about the same. A curve would not greatly affect weight balance.

Took me 5 and a half minutes to beat this monster when I finally beat him. Posture break route is a lot faster and holy hell, it’s so immersive. It’s exactly what I was wanting the final fight to be. A one on one that truly tests your skills in every single area of the game. You basically feel every single clash. I’ve never experienced a boss on this level and I don’t think I ever will again. This truly felt like the final test in a long ass journey, and when you ace it it’s the best feeling that a game can give you. Killing Owl made me tear up and get emotional, this fight pushed me to my limits. It took me many tries. I had to grind this for about 10 hours, between the fight and farming candy/spirit emblems. This is, without a doubt in my mind, the best final boss I’ve ever seen and/or played in a video game.

@@ghanimalnaimi2299 sekiro is the most polished from software game gameplay wise from fps to smoothness and controls. the world and setting is maybe not like yharnam and lordran quality wise but sekiro does many things even better. they all are similar you can tell that sekiro is 100 perc from software.

U played very well

[@poppyplays9717]

I like that small little detail of adding Genichiro fall down in the background while Isshin rises

[@kurosakikun96]

This game has a lot of those, similarly in the Shura ending you can see, albeit barely, Owl put Genichiro's head down beside Isshin's body

Such a top notch fight. If you played Sekiro upto here, the way the developers wanted you to. The fight is so deeply satisfying. It is the duel of a decade. Took me 8 tries to kill him, but every second our swords clashed, I loved it.

[@xN1Ks]

@@theguardianwolf7206 I don't think that's true. The Sculptor says he got his arm cut off by Isshin for becoming Shura. Not only is yours cut off by Genichiro, but you fight the Sculptor at the end, although its optional. You can get the Shura ending by siding with the Owl. It's more like a thematic cycle, I guess.

[@g.s.5110]

@@theguardianwolf7206 It's more like that one ending in Bloodborne where you replace Gherman. Wolf replaces the sculptor.

From likes to make the whole story of the game in a never ending cycle, that’s so when the next new game + happens in can naturally blend well in the other playthroughs.

Interesting. I wouldn't be surprised if this was an Archer/Shirou situation.

[@shanemcnelis2667]

I'm still confused about something: where did Genichiro acquire the second mortal blade? There's only one divine child, and she possessed the crimson blade, so where did Genichiro find the black one? Besides eavesdropping on Isshin when he alludes to a second mortal blade, what mention is there of it? My guess is that Lady Tomoe gave it to Genichiro after she attempted mortal severance with Lord Takeru (and failed) but that's just speculation.

[@ezekielbaskerville2710]

The fact that one of the most brutal bosses in all of Demon Souls, Dark Souls, Bloodborne and Sekiro is just a man with sword, spear and gun, the only augmentation being his resurrection and a lightning storm happening around them...

Much of the battle shown here was slowed down for the casual audience, lest the bullet-like speed of it all becomes lost to the viewer. This is why you can watch the bullets fly slowly.

[@benner1320]

How tf is he amazing? He failed miserably at parrying, countering and deflecting. He just ran in circles for 20 minutes and hit him once or twice every 30 seconds

[@thomasbitmail7937]

F*cking Genichiro again??? like if you beat this guy at the tutorial stage of the game and after that he still comes back?? sigh... The Japanese voice actor of him is Kenjiro Tsuda who also voices Seto Kaiba in Yu-Gi-Oh! guess this makes a nice explanation, that this guy just can't f*cking loose.

Two things: mikiri counters and kick attacks. Use them

On that day, zero mikiri counters were attempted

[@IAmSirZak]

He's really not as bad as everyone made him out to be. Cheesing just makes this more tedious. Just learn his attacks and mikri counter those thrusts as often as possible. Amazing boss fight! You feel a million times better beating him head on as well.

[@venonaut9782]

Without a doubt using mikiri counter and parrying would have helped so much in this fight. Just watching him run around the boss in phases 2 and 3 hurt so much. Granted, I got hurt really bad in those phases when I did it, but I ended phase 2 in under 2 minutes by countering, and the 3rd in under a minute using lightning reversals.

This is one gorgeous final fight, best Final Boss out of all the others in my opinion.
