Afro Samurai

This is particularly difficult in Number One Headband mode. Keep Overfocusing and Focusing until all the ninjas are dead. When the larger opponents appear, keep parrying then Focus Slicing them. Get them near the edge and you can Focus Slice them off of it. To get healed, get a flush or a straight when playing Body Part Poker.

• Press [Focus] and time your vertical attack to slice the RPG. Kill the normal enemies while avoiding the grenades. Repeat the process until he has been defeated.
• Focus, then hold Vertical Slice. Immediately before the rocket hits you the controller will vibrate heavily. This indicates the RPG is in slicing distance, and the glow of your blade should be at the very tip.

• You must have precise timing. When in Focus mode and you press [Heavy Attack], a white line appears to show the slice target. However, you must charge the [Heavy Attack] slice until the precise moment when the tip of your swords glows the brightest in order to cut the rope. Line up the rope, go into Focus, hold [Heavy Attack], then release it when you see the tip reaches its peak moment.
• Stand by the rope and do a Focus Vertical Slash. Release it as soon as the sword is just above Afro's head. That should break the rope.

• Do not try to cross the bridge. Instead, go around them. On the first one there is a ledge to the right just before the bridge. After flanking the machine gunners they will no longer have their guns and will be easy to kill.
• There are two gunners in this area, and they must be ambushed from the side. For the first gunner, when approaching the bridge head off the ledge to your right to avoid the gunfire. Then, work your way up to the gunner with platform moves. Once you get close enough, the gunner leaves his gun and attacks you with basic moves. Use the same tactic with the second gunner. Engage him by flanking to his right and force him to leave his weapon.

When the picture of the gunman appears, trigger your inner focus just as he fires his gun. Hold [Light Attack] and the bullet will catch on Afro's blade. When the light reaches the edge of the blade, release to send it shooting back at the gunman.

You will know that he is about to do a big attack when his weapon sparkles. Time your blocks to parry his attacks. When he is open use any desired combo until he backflips away. Repeat this until he has been defeated.

Time your blocks to parry his attacks and leave him open. You will know that he is going to use a big attack when his weapon begins sparkling. Use any combo until he begins blocking. After you have locked swords with him twice, he will become faster and stronger. Continue to parry him and combo back if you are skilled at timing your moves. Otherwise, Focus Dodge and attack.

Press L3 + R3 during game play.

Find all the mementos in Okiku's Story. The Easy Make combo allows you to skip parts of a combo. For example, if a combo is [Light Attack] three times, [Heavy Attack] three times, [Light Attack], you can simply press [Light Attack], [Heavy Attack], [Light Attack].
