Final boss - Lord Shimura
you’ve got the option to fightLord Shimuraonly with your katana.
Remember that you’ve got the option to use all your combat techniques.
However, you’re free to’t use any gadgets or ranged weapons.
Lord Shimura is the best katana user among all the bosses you have faced so far.
Despite that, this fight won’t be extremely challenging.
Regular katana attacksperformed by Shimura are the easiest to parry/dodge.
Unfortunately, he uses them rarely.
The boss also uses singleblue attackssuch as katana stab.
Remember, it’s possible for you to parry blue attacks only when you have purchased theUnyielding Sword Parryskill.
Otherwise, you will have to avoid them.
The biggest threat, of course, is Lord Shimura’sred attacks.
You have to dodge them or avoid by rolling.
The boss’s combos can cause the most problems.
Both of these mechanics require you to own the right techniques.
Perfect parry or perfect dodge will trigger slow-motion for a brief moment.
This will help you go into offensive and deplete a lot of Shimura’s health points.
This will make the fight shorter.
