Walkthrough

1
As the fight begins, you can land a free headshot (a shot that lands on the enemy's head, usually an instant kill) (a shot to the head) on Tachibana, causing him to drop for a free finishing move (a powerful attack that deals high damage).
2
Utilize the rock to your left to create breathing room for healing.
3
Engage Tachibana, focusing on winning the Ki battle.
4
Use items like Power Pills, elemental abilities (except lightning), and magics like Lifeseal, Devigorate, or Weakness talismans to weaken him and create opportunities for Grapple (a grappling attack) and Finishing Move chances. Lifeseal Talisman is especially effective.
5
When Tachibana loses half his health, he becomes stronger, and his Raiken (from Summon Guardian) will hit twice. He may also start using Lightning Talisman items.

Tips

Using the Lifeseal Talisman is highly recommended as it is very effective in this fight.
Using the rock to your left provides cover (a defensive position) for healing.
A free headshot at the start of the fight can give you a significant advantage.
Winning the Ki (stamina) battle is crucial for victory.
Countering Tachibana's Inner Strength buff with the Devigorate Talisman is possible; otherwise, you will need to endure the buff.
If you are close when Tachibana uses Inner Strength, you can attack him out of it, but be cautious.
When Tachibana uses Quadrisect, try to dodge away or roll to his side with a low stance to get behind him.
When Tachibana uses Summon Guardian, block Raiken's attack unless you are at a significant distance. Be prepared for a second attack from Raiken after he becomes stronger.

BOSS MOVES:

Sword Combos: Tachibana uses various sword attacks, including high, mid, and low attacks, a two-hit swirling attack, Swallow's Wing, and Morning Moon.
Arrow Barrage: Tachibana fires three arrows in a spread pattern. Blocking these shots is advised, then re-engaging.
Iai Quickdraw: Tachibana performs his version of Iai Quickdraw. Block this attack if you have enough Ki and quickly counter-attack, or get out of range.
Inner Strength: Tachibana's Katana glows as he performs a circular motion, granting him an attack buff. This can be countered with Devigorate Talisman or by attacking him out of the animation if close enough.
Quadrisect: Tachibana sheathes and draws his sword rapidly, performing multiple strikes. Block if you have enough Ki, otherwise dodge away or try to get behind him.
Summon Guardian: Tachibana summons his Spirit Guardian, Raiken, which charges at you. Block this attack unless at a distance. After losing half health, Raiken may attack twice.
