Somehow, the Mortal Blade multiplied.
>>
Time is.....LE CONVOLUTED
>>
there are two of them
one kills
one ressurects
>>
>>683832859
That's not the issue I have with it. It's the fact that we go through insane bullshit to get ours and Genichiro pulls it out of the ass. You can tell Miyazaki was busy writing ER with fat Martin
>>
>>683832859
There's a note in Isshin's room saying there's a 2nd mortal blade. If you didn't find it, that's your fault. Get exploration filtered, brainlet
>>
>>683834687
Woooooooooowwww a whole NOTE??? FUCK dude, you just saved this whole thread! can't believ that it was that fleshed out this whole time!!!!
>>
>>683834128
The black mortal blade wasn't a threat to the immortal ambitions of a militarized religious order.
The sealing of the red blade makes much more sense.
>>
Why is that eating a centipede makes you immortal?
>>
>>683835268
because they're blessed by the fountainhead palace waters
>>
>>683835364
Why not just drink the waters?
>>
>>683835394
genichiro did
and he's immortal now
>>
>>683834687
I love how From can have plot-altering shit relegated to a scribble up someone's asshole and people will defend it like it excuses the terrible writing.
>>
>>683834128
>You can tell Miyazaki was busy writing ER
yes he was busy writing a game with literally 0 story
>>
>>683834843
Isshin also talks about it in an eavesdrop, which is a feature you need to use to get different endings. If you cant be fucked to do that you're too retarded to be playing the game in the first place you troglodyte.
>>
>>683835489
Pretty sure he dies
>>
>>683835630
Yes, he dies when he trades places with Isshin and goes to hell. Isshin is then killed by the mortal blade that can kill immortals.
>>
>>683835630
because he kills himself with the mortal blade
>>
>>683835630
immortal =/= invincible
>>
>>683835769
so the second mortal blade can not only kill immortals but also revive people? doesnt that make it straight up stronger than the first mortal blade that had to be sealed away due to how dangerous it was?
>>
>>683836083
see >>683835762

>>683836250
thats headcanon

What was the wolf doing for three years between the fire at the Hirata estate and getting the letter from Emma?
>>
>>683836083
>>683835489
>>683835630
the second mortal blade can ressurect people but requires a life in exchange for a life. You trade places with the dead. The first can kill anything, even that which is immortal.

Genichiro's immortality is false anyway, the flaws with the centipede's was why they stole your shota in the first place, and by time you fight him there he's giga fucked up

sitting at the bottom of the well and eating moss
>>
>>683836323
>headcanon
It's literally what happens in the game. What's up with the desperate coping?
>>
>>683836557
why did isshin have to be executed with the mortal blade? does the other mortal blade grant immortality? why bother with kuro at all if you can just summon an army of invincible isshin clones by making soldiers sacrifice themselves?
the writing is dogshit
>>
>>683836702
Isshin inherits the immortality from Genichiro. This isn't hard, you are just retarded.
>>
>>683837408
why would isshin inherit it from genichiro? isshin got summoned as himself at his peak, its not like isshins soul overtook genichiros body
>>
>>683836702
>isshin clones
??? There's only one isshin. He's brought back by an incredible supernatural/divine power and so the same kind of power has to send him back. Are you asking for a scientific breakdown of this? This is beyond autism
>>
>>683834128
>kill 4 funny monkeys
>talk to some child
>insane shit
>>
>>683837757
He got summoned using immortal flesh as his catalyst. I don't know what to tell you. I don't have autism so I can't empathize with you, but I guess you can't empathize with anyone so it works out.
>>
>>683834128
Genichiro is absent for a lot of the game, what did you want the writers to say? He must have expended some effort getting the black blade, considering that he was trying to get the red mortal blade like us, but failed. As told by the monk in the hall of illusions
>>
>>683837814
Not him but if there's a force so strong in the world that can bring someone back from the dead at the height of their strength (as if it would somehow know when that would be) it seems just as possible to somehow make copies of him. It's stupid to care this much over something that's just meant to be a cool moment and an excuse for a boss fight but at the same time the game doesn't explain much about how the blade works
>>
>>683838058
the catalyst also had long hair and was trash at fighting so why was isshin balding and good at fighting? it makes no sense
>>
>>683838138
Over explaining magic and mystical elements is one of the greatest sins of modern fantasy.
>>
>>683838131
>He must have expended some effort getting the black blade, considering that he was trying to get the red mortal blade like us, but failed. As told by the monk in the hall of illusions
There is no indication that that was Genichiro and the implication is that that person fell to their death or otherwise doed since there's no way to leave the halls without catching the monkeys
>>
>>683836083
I don't think the second mortal blade can sever immortality like the red one can. if it did, wouldn't you just hard game over if Genichiro killed you with it?
>>
>>683838131
He was doing an Assignment Ada during that period and fought his own headless monkey to get it
>>
>>683832859
wtf is up with this dudes torso he looks like fallout 3 centaur
>>
>>683836326
I have the same question
>>
Tomoe DLC when
>>
>>683840973
Fucking never. Sucks bro.
>>
>>683841073
What's with From creating IPs and abandoning them?
>>
>>683841254
They're cognizant of today's remake/sequel milking culture for any mildly successful IP and want to distance themselves from it. Bloodborne, Sekiro and Elden Ring would have never existed if they weren't like this because then the suits would've strong armed Miyazaki into pushing out another Dark Souls trilogy instead.
>>
>>683835508
>the game doesn't explain this
>yes it does and here is the bit where it does so
>w-well the game still has bad writing!!!
lol
>>
>>683839520
don't think too hard about that kind of stuff, Maliketh in ER would also perma kill the player considering he's wielding a sword imbued with true death, but doesn't because the game's mechanics are more important than the plot.
>>
How can Sekiro bring items from the hirata memories? Are the hirata memories pocket dimensions created by Buddha?
>>
>>683833736
Isn't that the story of Devil May Cry
