"I see you still have much to learn about the way of the kusarigama. Traversing the realm of the dead in order to protect the Shisenin style has given me mastery over all manner of weapons. Defeat me in combat and I will teach you the ways of the Kusarigama.
How does that sound to you?"

Walkthrough
Your kusarigama proficiency must be at least 120,000 or more to start this tutorial mission, you can gain proficiency points by unlocking any weapon skills and by fighting enemies with the Kusarigama. Before you start the mission, make sure you have made any preparations needed since this tutorial mission leads straight to a mini-boss battle against Shisenin Kosen. He wields a kusarigama, which allows him to fight in either, long, mid, or close range. Using a Kusarigama as well for this battle will be helpful since you can reel him in with the chain of the weapon and land a couple of attacks while he is knocked off-balance. He can also do the same, but if ever he does try to catch you, just dodge either way at the right time to avoid getting pulled in. This battle is quite easy because sometimes, he'll just stand there, and you can just reel him in and bombard him with attacks - defeating him completes this mission.
