His punch is overpowered. While it does almost no damage, it's literally too fast to react to. He tends to only do it after dashing sideways, but it's not a guarantee, and he can fake it out multiple times. It got in my head, that's why this was such a messy fight. I had much better fights, ended by what feels unfair to me. He just... didn't do that though, in this fight.
Rules:
Fresh New Game
'Additional Hardships' from not carrying Kuro's Charm (increases difficulty and introduces chip damage on 'block' but not 'deflect')
Bell Demon on
No prosthetics
No combat arts
No damage or stagger taken
No dragon mask
No items/buffs

!! EPILEPSY WARNING !! (this boss has many flashing lights, sorry)
Something I didnt get to showcase. You CAN dodge his cross-slash when hes running at you, but you need to react insanely fast, and its a mixup with other attacks. Roll backwards twice, as early as possible. You can make the timing slightly more lenient by replacing the second roll with quickstep or BHS, as those come out faster than another roll would.
It cannot be stressed enough how much the presence of this attack dominates his entire moveset by being basically undodgeable. Dont even try to do this hitless without light roll. Thats not to say cross slash is the only issue though, this fight has too many problems to count. But I didnt just want to complain in this video.
After getting this kill, I didnt want to edit it yet so I started messing around until I eventually got that one shot parry/riposte kill from yesterday.
I actually recommend parrying if you want to fight him level 1, but this commentary might be helpful nonetheless.")

This kill ended up a bit disappointing compared to the insane effort it took and Im not sure what to do with the footage now
