: The game's signature feature is its artistic combat. When you perform a "finish" or use a special move, the game draws a traditional Japanese woodblock print (Ukiyo-e) of the action.
: Powerful moves deal massive single-target damage but have a long startup time with no invincibility. Use them strategically when an enemy is vulnerable.
: Common enemies, such as Doushin officers , often drop weapons like the Hishunmaru (Flying Falcon Rounder) when defeated. You can pick these up to expand your arsenal.
