5 (or more) parry room

[naachan]

I'm at the room in the grotto where you have to parry 5 (or possibly more) Lear dummies in a row. I can get the first four (although the parry timing in this game is entirely too tight, could use at least 2-3 more frames), but because of the delay the fourth has before his attack, I can't even get to the fifth before he's already so far into his attack that I don't have time to charge up the unbounded counter. How the hell is this supposed to be possible???? I tried air parrying the 4th to get through quicker, or the 5th, but it doesn't work on either, they both have to be an unbounded counter, but the timing seems to be actually impossible. What am I missing here?

Nope, after more tries, it's actually even worse than that. I can get the unbounded counter on the fifth dummy, the spear guy, but it doesn't actually destroy it so the room resets. It clearly makes the parry sound effect when I land it, which it doesn't do when I just guard or try to regular parry, so I think this is actually bugged?

Seriously? I tried air parrying that stupid thing so many times, and it never worked. WTF

There's no trick to it you must simply do it. Just stay calm (:

I did finally get it after seeing the video posted above. Took several more tries, as it really did not want to register the air parry, but I finally got it. Glad to know that it's not bugged at least, but wow that was obnoxious lol. The other similar rooms weren't nearly as bad, thankfully.
