Part 1: Reunion and Separation

Consult these maps for part 1:



You started the game at an entrance to the Keep (Nanamagari). Just follow north as the soldier instructs you to do, then you will face two Three-Eyes ninjas. Just hit them as hard as you can, but you cannot kill them though. After they fled, watch a cutscene where you reunite with the princess Yuki and automatically receive a gauntlet. Unfortunately, she is kidnapped by an Ogre King, Osric.

• Key Item: Gauntlet
  
• File: Instructions

There is a Magic Mirror right next to the door where you can use it to save the game and enhance your weapons/items.
Enter the door and continue the path until you encounter a group of Zombie Soldiers, kill them and enter the room. Inside, you will have to fight another group by Zombie Soldiers. After you are done, Exit the room to trigger a cutscene, one of the soldier will direct you to the forest which is a shortcut to the Keep. Enter the forest, kill the Three-Eyes who jumps at you at the cave's entrance. Before you enter, pick up Herb from the ground in front of the cave.

• Item: Herb

Inside, you will find a hole, examine it but don't jump into it yet if you haven't completed "Undying Summer" and "Fall's Flight" achievements. Skip this part if you already obtained the achievements mentioned above.

• Achievement: Fall's Flight
  Walk all the way back to the bridge where you first encountered a group of Zombie Soldiers. Stand in middle of the bridge for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, you will see geese flying and an achievement notification will pop up.

• Achievement: Undying Summer
  Going back to the forest. On the second screen where you see large tree on both sides, stand near the 2 large trees on your right and press O to absorb souls for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, you will see a beetle crawling up the tree and the achievement will be unlocked.

Now enter the cave and jump into the hole. Advance forward, kill Three-Eyes, then pick up a map from the treasure box near the staircase.

• Map: Underground Temple Map

Go upstairs and examine the mummified statue to open the door behind, also you will receive Sougen's Note automatically.

• File: Sougen's Note

Enter the door you just opened. From Samanosuke's perspective, turn right to the corner and kill a Zombie Soldier. In this corner, you will notice 2 small opened doors on the wall to the north and east. The one to the north contains a Fluorite.

• Item: Fluorite

Now turn left you will reach a dead-end with another small door on the wall, it is closed this time so open it to get Seiryu.

• File: Seiryu

Go to the opposite side of this hallway, you will find a door, enter it. Inside this room, there are 6 blue jars, destroy the one at the top-left to reveal a treasure box. Next, pick up the Thunder Orb (Shiden) in the middle.

• File: Journal #1
  
• Equipment: Raizan (Shiden)

Continue the hallway. to your left from where you picked up Thunder Orb, you'll notice a large trick box.

• Item: Rope Ladder (Solution: left, right, left)

After you get Rope Ladder, continue upstairs. Immediately after you get out of the underground, you should notice a red box in front of Samanosuke. It contains Magic Jewel and you should use it immediately unless you are doing no upgrade achievement.

• Item: Magic Jewel

Now follow the path you'll find a puzzle box and Magic Mirror on the left side. The box contains Power Jewel (use it immediately to increase your health bar), then save the game.

• Item: Power jewel (Solution: 1st option, 3rd option, 6th option)

Part 2: The Keep

Consult these maps for part 2:



Examine the door with Raizan equipped. You'll see all those weird slimes sticking to a door throughout the game. They are different in colors and numbers of crystals. The colors represent the power of orbs (blue = thunder, red = fire, green = wind) and the number of crystals represent the level of the orbs 1, 2, and 3. You can level up the orbs using Magic Mirror with red souls that you absorbs when killing monsters (note that the level of orbs and weapons are two different things). What you have to do to unseal it is to equip with a specific weapon depending on their color and meet required level.

kill all monsters in this area, then open the box that is half hidden behind a wood barrier.

• Map: South Area Map

Proceed to the next area. This courtyard has a large platform in the center. From where you appear, turn left and walk a few screens, you will see a giant axe monster with a ghost flying, kill them and enter the door he guarded (I will call it green door). The one in the middle is sealed with level-1 red crystal, so you will need a fire orb first. After you entered the door, immediately rush to save a soldier by killing 3 Zombie Soldiers, the soldier will then drop an Herb as a reward for you.

• Item: Herb

Ignore the door in front of you for now, do you see a broken wall? walk to it and use Robe Ladder to get down. Keep walking until you see a Magic Mirror and a trick box.

• Item: Power Jewel (Solution: 6th, 1st, 4th)

Do not enter the door yet, turn around and you'll see a huge wooden crate, destroy it to reveal a box containing Medicine.

• Item: Medicine

Save the game before you enter.
Boss: Osric
He is not very hard to fight, simply walking around and hit him after his last attack. He is slow so you have plenty of time to run and hit him.
After killing the boss, head into the hallway that opened when he collapsed, there is a box contains a journal file.

• File: Journal #2

Enter the iron door and walk a few steps you will see 3 jars, destroy them and examine the ground.

• Item: Fluorite

Proceed to the next door, watch a scene, then kill a new type of monster, Reynaldo. Next, pick up the fire orb. It will grand you a new weapon Enryuu, the second strongest weapon but it is also the heaviest and slow to wield.

• Equipment: Enryuu (Kouen)

Note: I recommend you prioritize enhancing orbs first in this order because they are required to progress the storyline.

1. Fire orb level 2
   
2. Thunder orb level 2
   
3. Wind orb level 2
   
4. Thunder orb level 3
   
5. Wind orb level 3
   
6. Fire orb level 3

Then, you can enhancing swords, bullets, arrows, and medicines last.

Now backtrack to Osric room, kill a bunch floating ghosts, then exit through the sealed door. This time you have to equip Enryuu to open it. Save if needed, then go to the courtyard and enter the main door with Enryuu.



Now you are in the Keep, there are 3 doors in the hall, 2 side doors on the left and one main. From your left, enter the second side door (it's a Sentry Room if see the map) you will find a Magic Mirror and a treasure box; you may also find a moth man, but ignore him for now.

• Map: Keep Map

Part 3: Trap, Trap, Trap!

Consult this map for part 3:



Now exit and enter the main door and watch a cutscene. During the cutscene, you can see a treasure box, so pick up it after the cutscene is finished.

• Equipment: Normal Arrows

Now that there are 2 more doors, go to the right first (the one without magic seal). Inside is a journal file.

• File: Journal #3

Get out of the room, this time enter the sealed door with Enryuu. Two Three-Eyes will welcome you in this room, so you know what to do. Proceed to the next area. Well, another cutscene with a kid and your comrade Kaede. Notice the double doors sealed by green demon plates? remember it for now. Continue the hallway and enter the wooden door. There are a few Zombie Soldiers and a Three-Eyes, finish them off. Beneath the staircase is a door leading to a small room. Inside is a big trick box (NOTE: DO NOT randomly attack in this room or you will cut a robe). Do not go outside yet, there is another file on the shelf.

• Equipment: Bow (Solution: left, right, left, right, right)
  
• File: Suzaku

There is nothing else in this room, so you can get out now. Before you go upstairs, check out the treasure box in the corner for Herb. Above the treasure box is another hidden Fluorite.

• Item: Herb
  
• Item: Fluorite

Now go upstairs and enter the door right next to the staircase. Examine a bucket in the middle of the room for a Power Jewel. Remember I said not to cut the robe downstairs? :P

• Item: Power Jewel

Get out and continue, feel free kill monsters a long the way. Two doors here, go to the level-2 sealed door first. In the room, open a treasure box for R. Crest Piece and pick up a Red Book on the table.

• File: Red Book
  
• Key Item: R. Crest Piece

Exit the room.
NOTE: Before you enter the double gray doors, change your weapon to Bow and Arrows because you will need to help 2 soldiers outside. You only have one a chance to help them because they will disappear if you re-enter. The reward for saving them is Herb and Magic Jewel. It's probably safer to go back and save the game to avoid missing these items. After saving them, wait until the items appear on the ground. Once you see the items flickering on the ground, you can go all the way back to pick them up.

• Item: Herb
  
• Magic Jewel

Back to the where you were, circle a little you will see another level 1 sealed door, open it. Kill all the demons inside, then advance to the next door. You'll notice an obvious crate, destroy it to reveal a Normal Arrows box. The corner beneath the staircase is another Fluorite.

• Equipment: Normal Arrows
  
• Item: Fluorite

Now head upstairs. This room has a Magic Mirror, a treasure box, and a file (right next to the treasure box).

• File: Byakko
  
• Equipment: Normal Arrows

Now enhance your weapons and save your game. Open level-2 sealed door and watch a cutscene. From this area, you will have to solve 4 different traps in order to move forward.

First trap:

• Step 1: there is only one lever, pull it.
  
• Step 2: move Kaede to pull the right lever.
  
• Step 3: move Sam to pull another. It will open another section.
  
• Step 4: This section has 3 levers, move Kaede to pull the far left. This lever will also open the cell containing a treasure box.

Move Samanosuke to pick up the Holy Armor from the treasure box then equip it immediately.

• Equipment: Holy Armor

• Step 5: Move Samanosuke to pull the right lever (the 3rd one from Kaede).
  
• Step 6: Enter the door, you don't have to pull the last one.

Second Trap:

It's pitch black in this room, so lit all the candle with your fire sword (press triangle button) then advance to next door.



Third Trap:

This one is easy too. Since the pattern is random, I won't be able to help you much, so just be careful not to kill each other or it will game over. The trick is that you don't have to move both of them to other side. The strategy here is to move Samanosuke forward and have Kaede stepping on the same 2 trick tiles. After you reach the circle tile, step on it to disable the trap.



Yey! you made it. But there is another one!!!

Fourth Trap:

Follow the images below:



You finally made it. Advance forward to the next area, then another door, you will see an obvious box on the wall with a string, pull it down to disable all traps that you just went through. You might want to go back to save your game at this point.

Part 4: Rescuing the boy

Consult this map for part 4:



Head upstairs and circling around, you will see a door which you cannot open right now. There is a ladder at the corner, use it to climb down. When you see a prompt message, don't go further down yet, circle around again to use another ladder to climb down. From your point of view, move south (Samanosuke's right) you will see a treasure box.

• Item: Power Jewel

Turn around follow the hallway until you see a door, examine it you'll be prompted to open a latch, open it. Backtrack to the first ladder where it prompted you "Go up" and "Go Down", this time choose "Go Down". Inside the room is a box with another Crest Piece. There is a hanging paper on the left wall where you can cut through it to reveal a file.

• Key Item: L. Crest Piece
  
• File: Journal #4

Now climb back all the way up and use the 2 crests to open the locked door. Enjoy another cutscene. After it finished, turn around and a walk to the next screen. Here you will a blue book on the right and a wooden box on the left side, they are Seiryu and a hidden Fluorite.

• Item: Fluorite
  
• File: Seiryu

Proceed to the next room, you will immediately notice a red book on the floor so pick it up.

• File: Suzaku

Before you walk to the next camera view, there is a Three-Eyes waiting to rush into you. So, you either have to walk close to the wall or be ready to block his attack. There is a treasure next to the staircase where you can barely see.

• Equipment: Normal Arrows

Go upstairs you'll hear a boy screaming. Just keep going and kill those Three-Eyes who block your way, then enter the first door you see. There is a treasure box and a blue book, so pick them up.

• Item: Medicine
  
• File: Seiryu

Walk to the next camera view and cut the 2 screens to reveal a Soul Holder and Magic Mirror, press O to absorb souls. Then pick up another Seiryu.

• File: Seiryu

Use the Magic Mirror to enhance your orbs and weapons and save the game before you go further. Now climb up, watch a cutscene, and enjoy a boss fight.

Boss: Marcellus
The strategy is very simple, Use magic (triangle button), hit, and run. The opening you have is after his attack, you have about 1 second to hit him back.



The boss will drop Arashi (wind orb) after you defeated him.

• Equipment: Shippuu (Arashi)

Go back down, exit the room and continue further until you see a level 1 sealed door with green crystal, open it with Shippuu. Enjoy a very long cutscene which you cannot skip. You might notice a treasure box inside the room during the cutscene. Unfortunately, you will be inside a room in the Keep that is far away from the treasure box after the cutscene is finished. Well, I guess you have to go all the back to pick it up. Remember the door which you unlatched when you climb down a ladder? You can go through that door because it's faster. If you still have trouble, use map below and follow the red arrows.

• Item: Burst Bullets

Now go all the way back to the main hall (where you help the 2 soldiers using bow and arrows). This time, you'll need to help another soldier. He drops Herb.

• Item: Herb

Save your game in the Sentry Room if needed and replenish your magic (where the moth man stays).

Part 5: Keep Underground

Consult these maps for part 5:



Exit, go to another side room, walk until you see another door sealed with level 2 blue crystal. Equip Raizan to open it. keep walking, kill all monsters who block your path, and enter the next door. To the left of this room is a Blue Book.

• File: Blue Book

Walk to the next screen, you'll see 3 elemental orbs. Don't worry because you already have all the three. all you have to do is equip all 3 weapons, one at a time, to open the path. Once it's opened, go down and keep walking straight until you see a door blocked by spirits. You cannot enter it yet, turn around to the other way and keep walking until you see another door, enter it. You will immediately see a Magic Mirror and a treasure box.

• Item: Herb

Save your game. Continue until you see some tentacles blocking your path, cut them through and keep going. You'll encounter one Renaldo in the next section, kill him. Here, you will see 3 books on the shelves.

• Map: Keep Underground Map

Walk a little further, you will notice a robe, cut it with a basic attack to reveal another a key item. You'll have to pick it up on the the other side.

• Key Item: Rosary of Communication

Exit this room and continue to the next door. In this room, there are blue flames on both side of the walls, at the end of the room is a treasure box. Picking it up will trigger another trap.

• Key Item: Purifier Bell

Swinging blades? it's an easy peasy trap. With Purifier Bell in your possession, you can now open the door which is guarding by spirits. Open your item menu and use the bell to exorcise those spirits, then enter. In this hallway, you will see Samurai encased in glass boxes, three of them will burst out, you know what to do. After killing them, keep walking until you see a dead end, at the left corner is a Fluorite.

• Item: Fluorite

Turn around and enter the first door you see (at the L corner). Inside has 2 Renaldos, kill them and enter the last door (ignore the green sealed door for now). This is a small room with 2 items.

• File: White Book

Now go back and open the green sealed door. There is a lot more items in this room but you have to kill the samurai first. You probably notice an iron maiden cage in this room, right? yes, another Fluorite is in it. Walk further, you will see 2 files and a trick box.

• Item: Fluorite
  
• File: Byakko
  
• File: Apocalypse #1
  
• Key Item: Blue Key (Solution: mid, right, left)

If you have Rosary of Communication, you'll see a white energy floating above the corpses and you can talk to them for more backstory.

Backtrack to where you picked up previous Fluorite (at cul-de-sac's corner), use Blue Key to open the double doors and walk a few steps to watch a cutscene.

Part 6: Princess Yuki

You are now in control of Kaede.
TIP: Since you don't have a gauntlet to absorb souls, there is no point in fighting monsters. You should only run and fight when necessary.

Consult these maps this part 6:



Exit the room and watch another cutscene.

• Key Item: Red Key

Head back outside to the courtyard, enter the green door where you used Robe Ladder. This time, you can open the door with Red Key you just obtained. Keep running a few feet, you will see a treasure box.

• Item: Herb

Keep advancing until you reach an archery range where you'll encounter a solder fighting a Zombie Soldier and two Zombie Archers. Kill the Zombie Soldier and climb up the ladder to kill the other 2 archers. Climb back down and talk to the soldier to claim your reward.

• Item: Soul Absorber

There is another door on the second floor, but don't go there yet. Instead, use the door before the ladder. There is a secret achievement in this garden.

Achievement: Bamboo-zled
It is very simple, cut a few bamboos in this garden and the achievement will be unlocked.



Keep walking 1 or 2 screens, you'll notice something flickering on the ground.

• Equipment: Kunai

Proceed to the next room. Inside is a puzzle box and a Magic Mirror.

• Item: Magic Jewel (Solution: 5th, 7th, 2nd)

Now get outside, you'll see a dead soldier and an item on the ground.

• Key Item: Wooden Gear

Don't bother opening the entrance doors, it's locked and requires Gold and Silver Plates to unlock. Go back to the archery range, this time climb up the ladder and proceed to the next door. Use the ladder to go down, you'll see a Magic Mirror and a treasure box.

• Map: West Area Map

Save your game if needed. Examine the door next to the Magic Mirror, Kaede will automatically use Shinobi Kit to unlock. Keep walking until you see the last door (ignore the first one). Once you appear, open a hidden treasure box to your right (Kaede's left); it's partially visible from a fence's gap. In the middle of the room is another treasure box with Journal #5 insdie. On top of a shelf is another file.

• Item: Herb
  
• File: Journal #5
  
• File: Suzaku

Now examine a cupboard to the right, then use Wooden Gear to activate it. Oh, it's a secret room with more items. See a standing Buddha statue? It is a Fluorite. Inside the treasure box is the Silver Plate, next to it is a blue book.

• Item: Fluorite
  
• Key Item: Silver Plate
  
• File: Byakko

Backtrack to the first door you skipped early, enter it. This room has a furnace that breathes fire in 3 lines, weird right? Now before you go through it, you need to pull down a tab at the left corner of the room to open the other door but it will gradually close, so you gotta time it right. Inside this room, the Gold Plate is on the wall. Did you also notice two crates? destroy them to reveal a Herb on the ground.

• Key Item: Gold Plate
  
• Item: Herb

Remember the door in the area with a soldier corpse where you picked up the Wooden Gear? Now go all the way back there and use the Gold and Silver plates to open the entrance door. Don't forget to save.

The hallway is on fire and it can hurt you, so you have to walk carefully. From where you stand to left is a staircase, and to the right is a door where you need to go next. You will find a staircase in this room with a few barrels and the one next to the staircase has a Fluorite.

• Item: Fluorite

Pick it up and head upstairs to open a chest.

• Equipment: Sacred Knife (Solution: mid, right, right, left, left)

Equip it immediately. There is nothing here so exit to the fire hallway and walk through until you enter another small room full of jars. Break them all to reveal a treasure box. Right next to the box is another file.

• Item: Kunai
  
• File: Genbu

Go back to the start of the hallway and use the staircase I mentioned early. Now before you enter, I suggest you go outside and save your game first because you are going to fight a mini-boss. under the staircase is a prison with the princess Yuki locked inside. Watch a cutscene and fight a mini-boss.

Part 7: Dark Realm

Consult these maps for part 7:



You are now in control of Samanosuke. Walk straight, pick up a Medicine, and save your game.

• Item: Medicine

Once everything's done, keep moving forward. There is another Samanosuke waiting for your in the next area, but don't worry you should be fine killing yourself.

Boss: Stylado (Samanosuke's clone)
He is not really tough, simply use all the magic on him and he will be dead in no time.



After that, advance to the next section until you see 2 chests.

• Key Item: Evil Plate (this is the key to unlock the strange door at the Keep).
  
• Key Item: Wood Ladder

Just turn a little bit left, you'll reach a dead-end. Now use the wooden ladder you just picked up from one of the chest here, then climb up.
NOTE: if you accidentally cut the robe early in game in the room above. you can still pick up the Power Jewel here.



Go to the green sealed doors, use the Evil Plate to open it. Watch a really cool cutscene (You know in the early 20s this was super cool). As Kaede said, you have to find something to break the seal to get into the Demon World.



Go back to the Sentry Room; side room #2 of Keep's main hall. The moth man will automatically ask you to the Dark Realm but I recommend you choose "No" and save your game first, then re-enter. The moth man will ask you again so select "Yes' this time. to go into the Dark Realm. It's an optional dungeon but the reward is worth the run though.
Note: you can go to the Dark Realm as many times as you want.



Dark Realm (optional)
There are 20 levels with the following reward (they may be different if you go to the Dark Realm by asking another moth man; the other one is in a well):

• Fluorite

These are key items that can only be obtained once:

Others can be obtained repeated clearing the Dark Realm.

Part 8: From West to East - 01

After completed the Dark Realm, head outside to the courtyard of the Keep and enter the green door again (the west area where you played as Kaede).

Again, you need to save the soldier to get an item.

• Equipment: Burst Bullets

Keep going until you see a door sealed with level-3 blue crystal. Open it with Raizan. As you appear, you'll notice a soul holder so press O to absorb some free souls. Walk to the next screen to pick up Genbu book. Walk further toward the headless statue, you'll see a red treasure half hidden containing Vision Staff at the corner. This staff grands you an ability to see Fluorites. Remember this room because we'll come back later.

• Key Item: Vision Staff

Exit the room, you'll immediately see a flickering object on the ground.

• Item: Fluorite

Continue your way to the archery range, you should notice a well on the left side a long the way in this passage. Inside is the another moth man who offers you to the Dark Realm. One of the achievements requires you to talk to moth man twice (maybe they are twin? IDK), first one is in the Sentry room whose you already talked to and second one is in this well.

• Achievement: Two to Tango

After you reach the archery range, climb the ladder and proceed to the next door. Replenish your magic if needed, enhance your weapons and save your game. See the door with level-3 red crystal? open it then head straight until you see a treasure box.

Now cut the rob that tied the battering ram, the battering ram will roll over those Zombie Soldiers.



Beneath the battering ram is another Fluorite.

• Item: Fluorite

Continue to the next room. There is a giant red ogre (Barabazuu) and 3 of his minions. He is strong, so it is best to finish them by using all of your magic. After you defeated the mini-boss, look around for 3 items here.

• Key Item: Statue Head (a treasure box in the corner)
  
• Item: Bullets (a treasure box in middle of the yard)

When you reach the courtyard, walk around until you see a wooden door, a small scene will automatically trigger. A little inside, you'll see a Decorated Sword shape on a stone, stand near the stone and use the Decorated Sword in the menu to open the pathway to the East Garden.



Kill those Three-Eyes then walk toward a green sealed door and open it (ignore the left turn for now). In this room, go straight to the outside, you'll see a draw bridge (if you press X, it will tell you that with the right tool, you can lower the bridge). All you have to do is equip your Matchlock you just obtained with Burst Bullets (Arrow and normal bullet work too but you have to aim precisely), then shoot the robe on the other side.

Cross the bridge to open a treasure box for Bullets then cut through the paper on the wall to reveal Talisman.

Head to the next area, kill cloaking demons then absorb some free souls. Continue your journey until you reach a waterfall.

Part 9: A Helpful Partner

Consult this map for part 9:



As I mentioned before when playing Kaede, she is not very strong and killing demons doesn't give you anything. So I suggest you always run and only fight when necessary. Now, walk toward and turn left, use Shinobi Kit to unlock the door. Walk straight then turn right. There is a treasure box that is hardly visible at the right corner.

• Item: Kunai

Open the door, you'll see an object on the ground.

Now walk around behind the room, destroy some porcelain jars. There is a book at the very end of the narrow path.

• File: Apocalypse #2

That is all, leave this room and continue to the next section (where you turn right, now continue straight). Keep going until you reach the waterfall, then enter the storage room and save your game. Kaede can unlock the other door in this storage room by using Shinobi Kit which Samanosuke previously couldn't enter. Keep going until you see a door, open it to the next room. You'll see 2 standing wood barriers blocking a treasure box.

• Item: Normal Arrows

Continue to the next room. As you appear, you'll see 5 blue porcelain jars, hit the one at the bottom right corner (Kaede's left) to reveal Kunai.

• Equipment: Kunai

This room has 2 doors left and right. From Kaede perspective, go to the right one first. Inside is a Magic Mirror and a ladder, save your game first then climb up. Destroy some crates to reveal a Fluorite and a book.

• Item: Fluorite
  
• File: Genbu

Go back down and proceed to the next room. As you walk to the next screen, be prepared to block 2 arrows. Kill the two Zombie Archers and turn left (ignore this door for now). Enter the second door. There are 3 items in this room and a ladder.

• File: Suzaku (on a shelf)
  
• Item: Herb (in a treasure box)
  
• Item: Fluorite (on an old chest in front of the ladder).

NOTE: at this point, if you already completed the Dark Realm, you should have all 20 Fluorites and all Files. You can open your menu to verify.

Climb the ladder, there is one trick box in this room, it is probably the hardest puzzle of this type.

• Key Item: Decorated Arrow (Solution: left, left, mid, right, right, mid, mid)

Exit this entire rooms and enter the door you just ignore early. There is only one black treasure box in this room, the problem is you cannot open it yet. Go around behind the room and pick up the Great Arrow. It will trigger a trap so you need something to replace the arrow position. Now go to your menu and select Decorated Arrow. The black treasure box will be unlocked and the door are now opened.

• Key Item: Great Arrow
  
• Key Item: Green Key (black box)

Exit the room, be prepare to block another 2 arrows again. Kill the archers and go all the way back to the room where you picked up Kunai beneath a porcelain. Go to the other door and unlock it with the Green Key. Enter, climb down the ladder, board a boat, enter the door, and watch a scene.

Part 10: Enter Demon World

Consult these maps for part 10:



Back to Samanosuke. You start with a boss fight, good luck.

Boss: Hecuba
She is not very hard, but the most annoying part about this fight is her minions. Good news is Hecuba and those insects are weak against Shippuu and Matchlock (Burst Bullets will help a lot).



Watch another scene after you defeated her.

Again, you are back to a safe room. Go to the main hall, then enter the Sentry Room. Replenish your magic if needed and save your game.



Go back to the room where you used Evil Plate to open. With your Great Bow and Arrow in your possession, you're now able to destroy the seal blocking your path to the Demon World. Note that once you use the Great Bow, you won't be able to come out. Now select Great Bow from your menu and watch a cutscene.



Boss: Marcellus
You already fought him once, this time he has 2 phases, the first is the same as the first encounter. The second phase is a little harder. But don't worry, I beat this guy with a normal sword without taking any damage.

Pick up a Medicine from a treasure box after you defeated the boss.

• Item: Medicine

Proceed to the next room, there you can replenish your magic and use Magic Mirror to save the game. Don't forget to pick up a map right next to the Magic Mirror. While in this room, you should notice a narrow path blocked by 4 demon fingers? The most powerful weapon resides in there. Go to the menu and select Bishamon Ocarina to open it.

• Equipment: Bishamon Sword
  
• Map: Demon World Map

Using Bishamon Sword is like cheating because you literally obliterate all monsters in one or two hits except bosses.

Now save your game and advance to the next section. Keep going downward in a spiral direction until you see an exit path. Pick up 2 Medicines at the end.

• Item: Medicine (x2)

The next room is the final boss.

Final boss: Fortinbras
Here are all his attacks:

• Punch and slap: can block, can dodge.
  
• Fire breathing: cannot block, can easily dodge. Simply running left and right.
  
• Lightning: cannot block, can easily dodge. Watch the lightning shadows dodge them.
  
• Laser: cannot block, can dodge. It is a little hard since the lasers are fast so make sure you watch the boss animation. When he turn his body 90 degree, he will shoot the lasers.

Watch another pretty cool cutscene.

The End!!!

Oni-Spirits (mini-game)

Oni-Spirits is a secret mini-game. After collected all 20 Fluorites, it will be unlocked after completed the game. So, what is the reward? Ultimate Mode. In this mode, you start the game with Bishamon Sword.

There are 12 stages that you have to complete. Unlike normal game where you smash all your way through, your only objective here is to destroy a certain amount of vases determined by each stage. The description of the game is a little confusing, but you don't have to worry about that; I will explain below. The only thing you have to watch out is the number of vases you must destroy at the bottom of the screen.

In the beginning of each stage, it will tell you how many vases available and how many vases you have to destroy, for example:

STAGE 1
SPIRITS 28 (total vases in the stage)
VASES 20 (total vases you have to destroy to complete the stage)

After you press Start button, you'll see a number at the bottom of the screen, for example:

RELEASE 17 (remaining vases you need to complete the stage)

Before you start, I want to point out a few tips for you:

• Your HP will be drained gradually until you die or it will stop when you destroy all vases. BUT if the number of "Release" reaches zero and there are still more vases, you will simply go to the next stage after your HP depleted.
  
• Vases destroyed by monsters do not count, you either have to destroy them before the monsters or kill the monsters as soon as possible.
  
• Red souls emitted after destroying vases do not matter, it only wastes your time if try to absorb them. What matters are yellow and blue souls.
  
• Watch out for Stage 6 and 10. You can easily fail one of this stage if you are not fast enough. The reason is because you have to destroy all vases.

To help you know ahead of what to expect, I'll list all stages information below:

Stage	Spirits	Vases	Items	Note
1	28	20	Herb
2	34	20	Raizan (Thunder Sword), Bullets
3	39	26	Matchlock
4	38	26	Bullets, Enryuu (Flame Sword)
5	36	28	Burst Bullets
6	6	6	Herb	Quickly run forward and use Flame Sword to destroy both vases in front of you before the Zombie Soldiers do.
7	39	32	Shippuu (Wind Sword)
8	42	36	Burst Bullets, Holy Armor
9	42	28	Burst Bullets
10	6	6	Herb	Quickly use Flame Sword special attack (press Triangle button) to destroy the 2 vases in front of you before the Samurai do.
11	39	30
12	44	36		Quickly use Flame Sword's special attack to destroy two rows of vases in front of you before the Spike monster does.

Yes, I'll continue doing Onimusha series when they release on Steam and keep the same guide format. I'm currently working on Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster during my free time so I don't have a timeline yet.

[x sLAUGHTER6 x]

This was a great guide! Are you going to do one for Onimusha 2?

[jaya]

i got struggled with 1 fluorite, now i'm not, deserved award

[Aither]

Thanks!

[woozie.]

Nice guide bro! Awarded

[SnoepDraak]

This was very helpfull and clear pictures were put in the guide.
Very usefull for quickly looking while in game.
Thanks.

[ExiledTroll]

i was trying it on easy, because i didn't want the difficulty of the game to get in the way as i attempt some of these achievements, and i was struggling there. i then made that post, kept trying on that save until i died trying. noticing i have a normal save that was currently playing kaede, i went into that one and got the achievement really quickly. i still don't know if the difficulty affects this for some bizarre reason, but it seemed like what i wasn't doing was pressing forward with the follow up attack, as that is what i did on my successful attempt, and it was the first time i attempted doing that.

[ExiledTroll]

i keep trying to use kaede's deadly strike for the achievement, but i can't get the follow up to work (in other words, i can get kaede to filp over the oponent, but i can't get her to do the followup attack needed to get the achievement), anybody have any tips or tricks to help make this work? is there a bug that makes this impossible? does the difficulty option affect this for some bizarre reason?

[a1humada]

thanks for your help! It's very detail walkthough!

[Aither]

Yeah, it is only 1.5 hour run, so it's better to start from the beginning... good luck.
