Lore Is Isshin Ashina immortal?

At the end of the final fight, we kill Isshin with the Mortal Blade, and the game displays “IMMORTALITY SEVERED.”
So did Isshin somehow become immortal after being resurrected by Genichiro? How exactly does that work?

Losing horribly at the very start, then struggling and overcoming him mid-game, and finally just toying with him at the end just feels amazing man.

This has probably been discussed to death already, but I absolutely love that the devs did this.

Discussion Finished first playthrough

• Upvotes

This was my first ever soulsborne game so you guys can imagine how insanely difficult it was for me at the start. I struggled a lot against that chained ogre and then it took me 2 days to defeat gyoubu oniwa and then another 2 days to defeat lady butterfly. Initially the game felt so frustrating that I was on the verge of quitting but once the combat clicked it became the best combat game i ever played. When i first faced genichiro, it took me 10-15 attempts to defeat him and it was really satisfying. Today i finally defeated Sword saint isshin after 3-4 hours of continuous playing. It was so satisfying and i have never felt this good and satisfied after finishing any game . My hands were literally shaking , it was so good.

Btw i achieved immortal severance ending as i wasn't aware of other endings . I will start NG+ to finish the other three endings as well. Any tips/suggestions are welcome 🤗😁

In watercolour, by me! Mount Kongo is one of the most beautiful locations in the game. The environmental design and art direction in this game is so unique and breathtaking it finally got me to paint something after over a year so it’s a little choppy, but I’m happy I painted something at last lmao
This location with the statues and the red and white pinwheel pick up is just so gorgeous imo (fuck the Ashina fencer apparition that can spawn here post invasion tho) that I knew I had to paint it!!

After 2 playthroughs of ER, the second without summons, I always had the nagging feeling I was too OP/abusing bleed/staggers with unga bunga and wasn't really playing the game correctly. Sekiro gave me no choice but to get good and all the tools needed to do so, nothing more. I also really appreciated the compact and clear story. 10/10 game, can't believe it hasn't been replicated (as well) since release. Gonna try LoP next.

There is invisible pressure when attempting these gauntlet's sometimes, this is my 3rd attempt at this gauntlet. I really died to true monk the first time lmao, it really pained me, i never had any issue with her, but all of a sudden i was doing extremely bad with her. And in my 2nd try i got to inner isshin and lost, but i atleast had the option to practice him seperately, i practiced 5 times and jumped into the gauntlet, and i beat him with only 2 heals used, i'm pretty proud of myself. Now i need to do the last gauntlet, which will take some time definitely.

Lore Shinobi Hand Sign...? Spoiler

Thumbnail gallery
9 Upvotes

I've noticed in the game that whenever Sekiro, Owl, or Lady Butterfly stab each other, they make a little handsign with their other hand while pulling the blade out. I know that Sekiro was taught by Owl and Lady Butterfly, so I know that it's probably a shinobi thing, but I was curious, because I haven't seen this handsign anywhere else in the game.

Does anyone know what the purpose of this handsign is, or what it means?
