I think I might quit this. I only picked it up recently because I didn't think I'd like a game about parrying...

I'm still on it

Hesitation is Defeat.

There is no way that you went all smooth through the whole game and then get steamrolled by Ishin. I beat Ishin in less than 2-3 attempts, It felt more like the end big guy, use everything You got and beat the shit out of this mf".
Maybe that happened because i always forced myself to react fast and do most of the fight the samurai way.

Sword Saint's first phase is quick, but it's predictable. Attack, attack, deflect, react to perilous kanji: should get you through this phase
His second phase has erratic slow swings which can be reacted to reflexively. As long as you don't hesitate
Third phase is a victory lap

You've beaten Genichiro, Great Shinobi Owl and True Monk
You SHOULD be able to beat this
