How to Beat Yasuhiko Tarou

Yasuhiko Tarou Serious Difficulty

Attack and Parry

This stage is easy enough to complete as long as you keep attacking the opponent, but Yasuhiko Tarou has a higher chance of dealing a counterattack if you do. Parrying their attacks can deal more damage and complete the stage faster!

Watch out for his Taunts

Yasuhiko Tarou will perform a Taunt, which greatly increases his DEF and lowers the damage he receives.

Yasuhiko Tarou Dire Difficulty

Parry right after the sword shine

When Yasuhiko Tarou is about to attack with his Honed Technique, he will raise his sword above his head. Press Parry right after his sword shines to counter his attack perfectly! This will deal massive damage and end the fight faster.

Perfect Parry as much as possible

In order to complete this stage within 75 seconds, you have to time your Parries and get a Perfect Parry as much as possible, even against Yasuhiko Tarou's normal attacks.

Yasuhiko Tarou Perilous Difficulty

Perfect Parry to collect Valor Stacks

Parry his normal attacks as well as his Honed Technique as much as possible and collect Valor Stacks to deal more damage!
