How do you defeat the boss in chapter 2 of Ninja Gaiden II?

I am trying my best for quite some time to defeat the boss of chapter 2 in Ninja Gaiden II but to no avail. The guy is lightning fast in attacking and I end up loosing. Can you tell me a trick or two that will do the thing Thanks in advance.|||Here are some tips from Mahalo, all credit to them (although this is what I would tell you if I took the time to write it myself)





#1 He has the ability to break your guard after a few hits, so don%26#039;t rely too heavily on guard.


#2 NOTE: Genshin is impervious to Ninpo attacks, use the sword only.


#3 NOTE: Genshin is also impervious to FLYING SWALLOW, so stick to ground combos, such as TIGER ROAR (X X Y) and FANG OF THE WOLF (X X Y Y).


#4 Immediately start dodging, left-to-right, while he tries to attack you with his combos.


#5 The main idea here is to use Reverse Wind (LT + L, a.k.a. %26quot;dodge%26quot;) non stop, until he has finished his combo, at which point you%26#039;ll have a short window of opportunity to hit him before he starts up again. If you are too far away from him after he%26#039;s finished his combo, chances are you%26#039;ll move in to attack and he%26#039;ll start attacking again and hit you.


#6 The battle can last a while, so be patient, stay relatively close to him at all times, and just hit him with little 3-4 hit combos right after he has finished his own. It will probably take a few tries to get the timing down.


#7 BEWARE OF: His attack where he jumps in the air spinning and slashing you repeatedly, it takes a lot of health.


#8 BEWARE OF: His Ultimate Technique, which you can easily dodge but will take a lot of health if it connects.


#9 DO NOT USE: Ninpo, Flying Swallow (Y while jumping forward)
