Walkthrough

1
Okatsu is extremely agile, moving quickly and launching combos before disengaging. Punish her attacks when her Ki is depleted to land Grapples and Finishing Attacks.
2
Master the range of her attacks to bait her moves and counter-attack.
3
When Okatsu takes damage, she will use the Gyokuto Buff, indicated by a talisman effect and glowing feet. This buff extends her attack range and may increase speed.
4
Buff yourself with items like the Sloth Talisman for extra damage and survivability. Apply other Talismans for additional damage.
5
Use buffing and debuffing items when Okatsu has lost some health to maximize their effectiveness.

Boss Moves:

Gyokuto Buff: Not an attack, but extends the range of Okatsu's melee attacks.
Sword Combos (Without Gyokuto):
- Sword Slash
- Iai Quickdraw (charges and slashes)
- Iai Quickdraw with follow-up attack
Sword Combos (With Gyokuto):

Kunai Throw: Okatsu throws a fan of five Kunai. Usually, only 1-2 will hit you due to spread.
