S-Rank Chapter Achievements:

To get an S-Rank in a Chapter you have to finish every battle with an S.
Fortunately the game offers the option to jump right into the battle and exit out of the Game once we got our Rank, so you dont have to watch everything again.
The special missions do count towards the Rank. Both difficuties; Normal and Hard.

The game is quite generous in giving you an S-Rank especially in the early stages of the game (Prologue to chapter 4). However, the last chapters are a bit more annoying.
For the Storyfights I would recommend just taking your time and finishing the battles with quite a lot of health remaining. Particularly Chapter 8.
If you are still struggling, to figure out when to fight and when to dodge. Dont rush things and take your time. Try to remember their attacks and find an opening. Also make use of the practice mode to get a good feeling for your combos.

Also: Pay attention to the QTE(Quick Time Events)

For the Special MIisions you should focus on finishing the battle quickly and with a lot of health (above 90%) remaining. That will grant you a ton of ranking points. All of them are quite easy to combo. And once they fall down wait for them to get up and just engange a combo again and again until he reaches his desperate mode. You should also make use of your partner skills as much as you can even if you dont enage the fight.

Also using your boost and/or finish with ultimate, getting a high combo-count, switching with your partner will grant you a good boost of points.
The “Ranking Information” will give you a good review on how you did.

Chapter 6 and 7 have no real battles except for the special missions. You still have to get both minigames on both difficulties on a S ranks in chapter 7.

Boss Battle Tipps for S Rank

Rui

• Best here is to run around and strike once an opening presents itself. Dont rush here. Take your time.
  Normal Mode:
  Basic-light-attack-combo:
• Attacks 4-5 Times with one Thread:
• Try to run in circle and/or dodge it with your dash. Once he is almost done with his final attack dash in and engage your combo. Dont take too long otherwise he will dodge away or block.

Webwall:

• Summons a giant Wall of Threads:
• Run around the wall. Or run behind him if you are close to rui. Dont try to block it,

Webcircle:

• Areadamage around Rui where webs form in a half-circle
• Stay out of the red area. Once the attack is over dash in and engange a combo

4-Thread-Attack:

• Summons 4 Threads out of the ground:
• Just block or dodge them

Web-Thrrow

• Throws a single web.
• Dodge or block

Desperate Mode:
Dont try to rush things here. Try to dodge and remain calm. Once the mode is over dash in and attack.
4-Thread-Attack:

• Summons 4 Threads out of the ground:
• Just block or dodge them

100-Threads-attack

• This is where Rui jumps on a tree and attacks you with a bunch of 3-lined threads. Run around
  and try to dodge. Stay calm here. Its quite simple to just dodge them if you dont overdo it. Once the attack is done the desp. mode ends and you can engage your attacks

Enmu

• The first form is quite easy. The map however narrows down your movement and making dodging quite stressful.
• First Form
  Basic Combo:
• Attacks with close range basic combos
• He mostly does this when you are quite close to him
• Block or dodge his attacks and then instantly attack and combo

Projectile Throw:

• Throws 3 projectiles on you
• Blockable and dodgeable
• Final Form
• There are a bunch of area attacks here. The best thing in this battle is to not fully combo him
• Just do a small combo and then dash out before he can do any kind of Area Damage
• If he is about to do the really big area damage. Run back to the edge out of the area and
  dash in once the attack is done
• The moment he opens up his body is where you can basically hit him with your full combo

Akuza

• Akuza is quite challenging. He dodges and blocks and gives you sometimes no real opening. Be aware of his movement and his attacks.
• First battle:
• The first battle is actually quite simple. All he does is a dash and sometimes run towards you to kick on the ground. Both easily dodgeable. This is where you have to dash-attack and combo everything you have. Rengoku is quite powerful. With a good 25-30 combo you can take away 1/3 of this health.
• He occasionally engages a basic combo if you are to close to him.
• He does not have a desp. mode in this fight

• Second battle:
• The Second battle is more challenging. Its important to mostly avoid being close to him or even engange without a plan. Run around, dodge and wait for an opening.
• This battle is devided into 2 parts. The first one is the harder one. Try to memorize his attacks and only attack when you know you are safe to counter.
• You should also spare your boosts for the second part of the battle (the part after he regenerated all his health). The boost give you a good amount of damage and he is easy to combo there because there is no desp mode in the second part of the battle

• Jump-Attack:
  He jumps in the area and falls down resulting in a big area damage. This is mostly the first thing he does. Run away and once he falls down engage a your attack. Dont try to block it otherwise you wont get the opportunity for a counter attack In his 2nd boost mode he jumps in the sky and drops a huge area attack. This one is blockable and you can follow up with an attack combo
• Kick on the ground:
  He dashes towards you and kicks on the ground or does a upper kick. Try to engage quickly on that one. Dont try to block that eitherIf you are to slow he attacks you again.
  If an attack is to risky just dont rush it.
• Dashes and performs fist combo:
  Similar to the kick on with the difference that he does more damage and its harder to dodge.
  Dont try to block it. He will follow up with the jump attack. Once he punches out his final attack dash in and attack
• Projectiles:
  His projectiles are easy to dodge and block. Dont try to dash attack if you are quite far away.
  He will jump in the air and throw a few more profectiles at ya.
• Projectiles on the ground:
  This is where he jumps a few meters and throws projectiles on the ground. Dodge them by stepping out of the way and once they are about to land engage a dash-combo-attack

Rengoku

• Rengoku:Rengoku acts here more as an VS-Mode CPU so its not that easy to describe his pattern. How I got an S is similar to the demon fights. The “only” safe opening I found is when he is done with his meele combo with his dragon skill at the end. Once you see his Combo getting to its end engage your own combo and inflict as much damage as possible.

  His range attacks are blockable and his combo is acutally easy to parry. But if parrying is to risky just ignore it. You can also try to land a heavy attack or even dash attack if he runs towards you and start your combo there but this is not always a safe bet

• In his second phase he is mostly the same with the little difference of splashing out 3 of those range attacks. When you block everything he mostly pushes you back to the edge and perfoms his 3rd area attack (which is the same as the second one). Once he is done with that you can dash towards him and combo him.

Death By a Thousand CutsFinish off your opponent with a 5-hit light attack combo in VS Mode.
