I was using 2 oil+charged flame vent on second phase Isshin to get the HP down, but it turn out using sabimaru at the beginning is a much more effective use of 6 emblems. Also, the buffs during the wind spin sweeps are really comfy. This probably could've been easily over a minute faster if I didn't get such awful RNG at the end of the fight (he wouldn't wind spin, so it took ages to get that last bit of HP) and in first phase Isshin, and also if I would've been able to get off the confetti at the end of the Genichiro fight. This is still a good amount faster than the fight was before I started using sabimaru.

Alright, this is definitely more consistent than the last version, and this will definitely let you chain these sleeps indefinitely. The godskins will reach max sleep resistance after the 4th sleep, so this can keep going if you are just one on one. Also note that this was done with a +0 sword, so this is much more viable with a few upgrades.")

This fight is incredibly irritating, and its mostly because landing all (or almost all) the Sabimaru combo hits is REALLY important, otherwise youre going to get smacked or will have to use several more emblems to poison. The trick (which I screwed up on several times, lol) is to get 6 thrusts and 2 jumping R1, then to punish either a slam whiff, the poop throw, or the rolling tantrum attack with the sabimaru combo (R2+R1+R2x4+R1). The final R2 should poison (only takes 4 emblems), and the final R1 should completely knock him out of stun, allowing you to start over.")

If youre wondering why I start off just using regular R1 combos with the blades instead of the much stronger stance shift combos, its to make sure that I get the blades to full immolation level. For some reason, the immolation meter drops like a rock when you do the heavy stance shift combo, and I can go the entire fight without filling the meter if I dont do R1s. It was definitely worth it, as I got 5 burns off on Olrun by the end of the fight.")
