Sekiro: Ranking Bosses Strength Based on Lore

[@greatwhitnorth]

I’ve binged all these “strongest based on lore” videos you’ve done. It’s some of my fav content I’ve seen on KZbin recently. Bravo!

[@whicheverstar4432]

Amen brotha!

[@TrendingFrog]

I agree that Owl is probably stronger than Genichiro but there is no way that Owl actually took down Genichiro in battle, he doesn't take fights he doesn't have to and I 100% believe that Owl pulled a sneaky on Genichiro like he did with wolf

[@thedevilsadvocate4854]

I thought exactly that, Owl most likely snuck up on Genichiro so i wouldn't take this as an actual feat.

[@okami7847]

This is too assumption based. I think Genichiro definitely gets downplayed by the fanbase but the fact is, Owl killed Genichiro. If it was that simple, why didn't Owl do a sneaky backstab on Isshin? Because Owl is simply more capable than Genichiro.

[@davidnewhart2533]

​@@thedevilsadvocate4854 I disagree. I believe it is a feat.

[@munizbros999]

⁠@@okami7847its also too assumption based to think he actually won a fight with genichiro. He backstabs sekiro so why wouldn’t he do the same to genichiro. And perhaps cuz he could not sneak up on isshin the sword saint

[@okami7847]

@@munizbros999 There are no assumptions on my part, Owl killed Genichiro, that is a fact. Using your logic isn't favorable to Genichiro; Owl doesn't sneak up on Isshin & failed to backstab Wolf in present time, two characters stronger than him. Yet is successful against Genichiro, why is that?

I'm pretty sure Isshin does not adopt the power of tomoe, because when he does the lighning strikes, he catches the lightning coming down from the sky, he does not generate it like genichiro This wouldn't really change the ranking, it's just an observation regarding your analysis

[@coolrotaryphone]

It just makes him more badass tbh

[@ValGOPLock]

If anything that cements his ranking on the list even further

[@the_van_kid]

Genichiro had to take lessons under Tomoe to learn the "heretical" art of summoning lightning. Isshin just flexs and catches it because hes built different

current isshin also redirects shura flames so it makes sense if he is just able to redirect other elements of nature

[@alibarznji2000]

[@gandalfpotter2149]

A slight error: sword Saint Isshin doesn’t exactly use the way of tomoe like genichiro. If you look very closely at his lightning attacks, he doesn’t summon light ing on his spear, he actually catches it from the thunderstorm and redirects it at you. So in my opinion he’s even more powerful than we think because he doesn’t need to use heretical arts to create his own lightning, he’s just so good he can use a literal storm as a weapon against Sekiro.

[@NeloBladeOfRanni]

He is the storm that is approaching 😂

I don't think Isshin is using lightning of Tomoe, he's just doing lightning reversals on the thunderbolts from the storm

[@ElderHickory958]

So the thunderstorm he generated by himself is trying to kill him?

[@tpearce713]

@@ElderHickory958 what makes you think that Isshin generates the storm?

[@ElderHickory958]

@@tpearce713 The exact same happened when Genichiro got into his third phase and, during the cutscene, a lightning striked his katana right before fighting us. Presumably, the same happens when Isshin gets into his third phase, the rain and the thunderstorm started, he jumped and the lighting striked his spear during his lightning attack on us

[@tpearce713]

@@ElderHickory958 in the cutscene, Genichiro is standing on the ground when the lightning hits his blade, so he's definitely doing more than just reversals, but I think every time Isshin interacts with the lightning he does it in the air. Maybe the storm itself is related to the lightning of Tomoe, whether Isshin summoned it or Genichiro started to while Sekiro was fighting him, but the actual lightning attacks that Isshin does seem the same as Sekiro's lightning reversal. Dunno, but from a lore standpoint I guess it could go either way. Either Isshin inherited some of Genichiro's powers when he was reborn or Isshin is just badass enough that he can casually harness natural lightning in his attacks

Quick note- Isshin sword saint does not have the way of tomawae, he actually catches the lightning that is already falling on his spear, and throws it at you. If you look at the fight you can actually see him doing it.

[@henry7001]

I've been waiting for the video on this game :D

[@ElderHickory958]

I think you tried to explain this in Isshin Ashina's entry but it's not really clear: Exactly like Sekiro to Kuro, Tomoe was sworn to the Divine Heir (meaning she was the protector of Takeru) and my theory is that this implies that she was also immortal but died with Takeru because she failed to help him severing the Dragon's Heritage. All details considered, she is probably related to the Dragon Rot epidemic that happened long ago (Dialogue unlocked with Emma after finding the cure to Dragon Rot). And I'm pretty sure this Dragon Rot epidemic is related to Isshin because it's stated by Isshin himself in a Sake dialogue that they once fought and she was the closest person to ever kill Isshin. Yet, she still lost. So if she was immortal due to the Dragon Heir's blood but still lost, she must have died SO MUCH she gave up. And dying that much would be the reason for the Dragon Rot's epidemic

[@theslickestcrabaround5588]

I loved this video, but i think i disagree with how Genichiro and Owl were ranked above present day Isshin. As far as Owl goes, i can't say for certain whether he would rank higher or not and don't have too clear of an opinion, the best we have to go off of is how he says "few could have hoped to defeat him" of Isshin, even in his weakened state. This doesn't tell us whether he considers himself as one of those few or not. However with Genichiro, i am more strongly convinced that he was in fact lesser to Isshin despite his illness and old age. The ministry only sends spies to Ashina so long as Isshin is alive, however weakened he may be, and they begin their siege when *and only* when he has succumbed to said Illness; despite Genichiro still being very much alive, and having gained more strength than ever, with Tomoe's lighting and the black mortal blade. The whole point of Genichiro's tragedy is that no matter how much he sacrificed and how hard he tried, he simply wasn't strong enough to save Ashina: which is why he resorts to using the black mortal blade and killing himself to bring Isshin back, as he himself could not compare to him, and was unable to stand against the forces of the interior ministry once Isshin had fallen. Of course this is all based on my interpretation of the story, and i'm just sharing my opinion, nothing against yours! As i said i really enjoyed the video, keep up the good work ❤

[@MadMax22]

Present Day Iishin. I think theres more wrong with him than old age. When hes revived to his former glory you can see a seppuku scar on his stomach. He either got this in the afterlife or when he was alive. We're going to assume he got this when he was alive. Now ive got a whole theory about why that scar is there and that that was the reason for the Ashina rebellion in the first place. (Because may have been ordered to commit seppuku but no one honorably killed him but chopping his head) But if he tried to commit seppuku and no one killed him after words that means hes been living with that Seppuku damage done to him for years. And in his old age I think having a wound like that is having horrible effects on his body. So in my head someone the same age as him like Owl would be stronger than him (just barely) with his high agility and devastating physical strength. And someone Young like Genichiro who can hop around everywhere, has every hax in the story, and has THREE life bars is definitely gonna be stronger than an almost dead Iishin. Through Iishins final boss fight in the main story you can tell just how sick he was the day before based off of the difference in how they move. Iishin fights like a truck. Always fucking running and jumping with his spear sword and gun. His Old self is just nowhere near that anymore. He cant even really run. He even coughs mid battle. (Instant death fighting against Owl) But this is if my Theory that Iishin committed Seppuku is true. Also if its true and he did the Rebellion for this reason. Then when Sekiro cuts his Seppuku scar to end the final boss fight he actually completes the ritual by finally chopping his head giving him an honorable warriors death. (Something he does now do in the shura ending)

What if Owl gets you to handle some of the dirty work because he wants to avoid becoming Shura?

[@Cerise__]

Well, i don't think Owl would have turned into Shura, because he did want to rule Japan with Sekiro by his side. I think he quickly left, because he wanted to take the Mortal Blade from Genichiro so they don't have a chance at killing Sekiro.

[@fyrewolf7805]

he makes you do the dirty work because he can't beat isshin, even a sick version. he can, however, beat a heavily wounded and weakened genichiro. here's why I think owl is not that good at fighting. 1. He is one of the only bosses that you can hit without an opening. If you just randomly attack at certain periods, even if he's ready to parry, you'll land a hit, he's the only boss that doesn't 100% parry. 2. Otherwise he wouldn't ask sekiro for help. It is pretty heavily implied that he would have betrayed sekiro at some point, and that he was only using him as a tool. it would be better to let sekiro just do his job and leave ashina, and take the kingdom for himself. 3. He's a shinobi. He can't do head-on fights. Sekiro is sort of an exception in that way. At the start, when he's full shinobi, he loses to genichiro. He has to learn to get better to win.

[@AlexT7916]

This is why hollow knight would be a perfect fit (part two coming out soon??), while the above mentioned cuphead would be a disaster because of its comedic ridiculousness and lore irrelevance (its basically a cartoon, everyone can do anything) which doesnt fit at all with bestiarys style and quality standard in my opinion. Maybe he will even branch to something like the Witcher. Baldurs Gate 3 would be cool too, though the cinematic presentation could be hard. Not quite the same vibe and atmosphere as the Fromsoft series with this games, but the lore is incredible, maybe too much though (Books etc).

[@yuksu8680]

this ranking was really great and well written but im not sure i agree with the placement of the last 3 or even old isshin under genichiro/owl. personally id rank them isshin ss divine dragon inner owl because while the divine dragon's influence may be the strongest and its amount of overall power might be higher, in a 1 on 1 fight i think isshin would be able to win against the divine dragon as sekiro has without much trouble. isshin ss has the power of both tomoe's lightning AND the black mortal blade both of which we used in our fight against the divine dragon. as well as isshin having the power of the rejuvenating waters or some level of immortality given from genichiro or the black blade considering we had to kill him with the mortal blade. I do agree inner owl is insanely powerful and the fight against him in our mind is the fight against who he is to sekiro, and while that is definitely very intense, nothing suggest it is sekiro's hardest fight. isshin is simply THAT GUY, the very strongest swordsman the world has ever seen, powerful enough to retake ashina himself, armed with a mortal blade, immortality, and the full mastery of the lightning of tomoe, once his equal, blended into the perfect ashina style. isshin ss, and inner isshin, represent the absolute pinnacle of all power possible summoned as a last ditch effort to win at all costs. also he appears at the very end of the true gauntlet of strength i think that says something more than owl.

[@Zachary_King]

@ahmadadnan4773leaning away from Gael, not 100% on Elden Beast lore, but from what I know, Moon Presence can exist on multiple planes so even if it gets killed physically, it can survive on another plane and has proven it can influence others to act on its will such as Gerhman and the PC AND only being with the same level of insight can even stand against it. Gael’s strong asf, but with his hollowing I don’t think he has the insight needed to stand against the Moon Presence. In a one on one fight, I reckon the Moon Presence would just dominate Gael’s mind without much issue, hollows aren’t exactly mentally with it. Physical power is one thing that Gael excels at, but Moon Presence has a whole other magnitude of it. The Elden Beast seems a great deal more powerful, but it’s also an extension of the Greater Will, not on par with the Greater Will itself. I think the Elden Beast is powerful asf, but I don’t think it can even crack the Great Ones of Bloodborne. Honestly, I reckon the Moon Presence would just ask the Elden Beast to put its daddy on the phone 😂

@ahmadadnan4773 exactly my point, one of the reasons the Great Ones all ranked so high was because even if their physical bodies were destroyed, they’d still exist in any number of other planes of existence. How can a character be more powerful than one if they can’t even kill it? Even if a Great One fails to kill Gael, they could easily seduce another mortal, like the chosen undead, bearer of the curse, ashen one, paleblood hunter or the tarnished. Also, you can only stand up to the Moon Presence after ascending to a level on par with it by consuming three third umbilical chords. If you don’t, you don’t even get a chance to fight. Side note, Kos actually washed up already dead due to a miscarriage, fishermen just worshipped her corpse until Master Willem was like “Oooooooooooh fresh god corpse” 😂

@ahmadadnan4773 that’s the thing tho, I don’t think Gael COULD stand up to the Moon Presence’s powers. Gael was STRONG as hell and I think he’s definitely capable of cutting the Moon Presence into calamari, but the Palemoon Hunter could have killed Ebrites, Orphan of Kos, Mergot’s Wet Nurse, Amygdala, every Great One in the game, but if they haven’t chowed down on enough umbilical chords when they wanted a snack, they couldn’t even lift a finger against the MP. All things considered, the PC in bloodborne is still relatively sane. Gael? After hundreds, possibly thousands of years of constant searching, killing and blood drinking, he’s far from sane. Just the type of people Great Ones can play with easily. Gael could probably annihilate MP in a straight fight. But I don’t think he could even raise his sword against MP, he’d just end up being a pawn.
