Characters / Genma boss
Nue
A Genma that terrorized Kyoto long ago, and now back with a vengeance. The range of attacks it unleashes is as varied as the number of other creatures it seems to be an amalgamation of. It attacks like a wild beast toying with its prey, and absorbing souls will allow it to unleash lightning from its tail. But don't let its speed and ferocity put you on the back foot - take careful aim at its tail with your arrows, and you'll soon have things under control.
