How To Find And Defeat All Samurai Daisho In Osaka Castle
Once you enter Osaka Castle from either of the entries mentioned above,your first goal is to find and defeat three Samurai Daisho in it.

As you enter from the western edge, you’ll see a big group of enemies below you. Smoke bombs and Kunai will be your best friends here as you canfirst use the latter to defeat a few of them, and then the former to assassinate the rest.
Once the group is eliminated, you can find the first Samurai Daisho roaming around this areajust to the south of where you entered. This one will have three health bars, and it’s recommended to attempt an assassination on him before fighting.
After defeating the first Daisho, climb up the buildings on your east and you’ll see some stairs leading you to the main castle. You’llfind the second Daisho outside this castle to the west, which is where these stairs will take you.
