📝 Weekly Oni Memo #41

This image is captured from the game. It depicts a scene in which Musashi struggles through pouring rain and muddy ground, clashing swords as he fights desperately amidst a sea of blood and mud. Personally, the sheer coolness of sword-fighting scenes in the rain, as depicted in Japanese historical dramas, is deeply etched into my memory, and that influence is clearly reflected in this scene and the gameplay. If you look closely, you’ll notice that Musashi isn’t wearing the Oni Gauntlet here. For more details, you’ll just have to find out when you play the game! —Director: Nihei
