This screams 'bad ending' when you get to see it, like a 'YOU FAILED' or 'try again' screen should have popped up

You ever think about how Shura is basically a Lord of Cinder? I mean, even down to the flames crawling up Sekiro's arm as he becomes an indominable force.

I knew there was a reason I always chose not to link the fire, lol.

Shura Ending is my fav just because of several things. Owl actually acknowledges Sekiro and welcomes him into his plan until irony occurs. Yeah sure Owl is just a pragmatist who really just cares for himself, but seeing this short father-son relationship is pretty cool. Second, Sekiro smiling, even if its barely noticeable after the first fight. Finally, the final few lines of dialogue after the screen just reminds me of the beginning of the game, but instead of a war of survival, we end it off with meaningless destruction. Thanks FromSoftware!

what a badass ending, too bad that second mortal blade and the fire arm don't carry to subsequent ng cycles

That's the first ending I got, I was like "sekiro owes everything to his father, plus he saved his life, he's probably just testing his resolve and will help save kuro later"
And then, bang, bad ending.

I got this as my first ending damn, I kinda feel bummed out for all the content that I missed out cause of this quick ending. Now I am doing second run charmless-demonbelled cause momma didn't raise no pussie

While this isnt the first ending I did, I think From should have made it so that if you dont start new game+ when it asks you, you should start before owl and choose to disobey the iron code.

I've played this game 4-5 times, and I never get tired of it. But it does really suck for people who have chosen this as their first ending, they were locked away from a substantial cool part of the game and have to play all the way through again to get to it. Kinda just feels like bad game design imo.

NO yOU caNt bE shURa

idk why but in my first play through i tried to obey the iron code, and it would not let me.

Best ending: isshin won't die from illness, Emma finds dogen, Owl gets proud of wolf, Genichiro is gone forever, demon of hatred won't come, anayama and kotaro get a big shop, both wolf and kuro are alive and happy
