Doujun's Questline & Jinzaemon's Fate

Follow this guide to complete Doujun's questline and determine Jinzaemon's fate in Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. Learn about the choices and consequences within this intricate quest.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Locate Doujun in the Senpou Temple, near the kite-flying area. He is experimenting with immortality.
  2. 2
    Speak with Doujun and agree to help him. He will ask you to retrieve Serpent's Viscera.
  3. 3
    Obtain the Serpent's Viscera from the Guardian Ape's Lair. You will need to defeat the Guardian Ape first.
  4. 4
    Return to Doujun with the Serpent's Viscera. He will then ask you to retrieve the Divine Child's Dragonbone.
  5. 5
    To get the Dragonbone, you must progress through the game until you have the opportunity to interact with the Divine Child in the Hall of Illusions.
  6. 6
    After obtaining the Dragonbone, return to Doujun. He will then ask you to deliver a potion to Jinzaemon, who is located in the well at Ashina Castle.
  7. 7
    Find Jinzaemon in the well. You have two choices:
  8. 8
    Give him the potion: Jinzaemon will drink it and become a powerful, albeit monstrous, ally. He will then ask you to kill Doujun.
  9. 9
    Do not give him the potion: Jinzaemon will remain human and eventually leave.
  10. 10
    If you gave Jinzaemon the potion and he asks you to kill Doujun:
  11. 11
    Go back to Doujun's location in Senpou Temple. He will be in a different spot, having moved his lab.
  12. 12
    Defeat Doujun. He will transform into a grotesque, immortal creature.
  13. 13
    After defeating Doujun, return to Jinzaemon. If you killed Doujun, Jinzaemon will thank you and give you the Blooming Amour.
  14. 14
    If you chose not to give Jinzaemon the potion, or if you did not kill Doujun after giving Jinzaemon the potion, Jinzaemon will eventually disappear, and Doujun will remain.
