After completion - story spoilers
| Completion | In the course of unlocking the hidden powers of his gauntlet, Musashi absorbs a dark mass, triggering a vision of a mysterious Oni woman. Unwilling to go into detail about the woman's identity, Shizuka rather urges Musashi to continue his search for the hidden Oni powers. Could it be that they know each other? |
