 |
These swordsmen will jump at you and swing their sword. Just shoot them before they jump. | Enriku, Miwa | |

 |
Jukak | This guy drops little rodents that come and attack you, shoot them once and they die. He also shoots three fireballs at you, duck to avoid them. As with the previous boss, try not run into him, as it does more damage. Just keep shooting and he'll soon give up. | Attaro |
 |

 |
Wakahiko | This boss starts the battle flying back and forth. He throws boomerangs, that you shoot to destroy. After shooting Wakahiko enough times, his shield goes down, and he drops to the ground. Just a few more shots to defeat him. | Mt. Miwa |
 |
Fire Boss | This is the first boss that can be tough. He'll fly straight down across the screen, then come up again from the bottom, somewhere else. At the same time he shoots 5 fireballs out, be sure to stay far away and dodge the fireballs. It's best to use the Hatten spell and shoot it whenever you get a chance, or use Kannon if you're really lazy. | Kashima |
 |
These fish heads fly up and down across the screen. Pretty straightforward, easy to dodge and kill. | Shimono Sea | |
 |

 |
Princess Asaka | The dragon moves up and down from one side of the screen to the other. It will periodically shoot a fireball, that is fairly easy to dodge. The only time you can hit the dragon is when it opens its mouth to shoot a fireball. Just keep moving around and be patient, you could always use some magic like Hatten or Kannon to help. | Izumo 2 |
 |
Giant Centipede | This boss will fly from one side of the screen to the other, then come back from the other side. It drops fireballs as it moves, but they are very easy to dodge.

 |
These swordsmen are just like the ones in the beginning of the game, only stronger. | Kakogen | |

 |

 |
This enemy consists of four balls. You can only destroy them with a powered up shot. That is why you should always hold the fire button down while flying. | Hinokami | |
 |
Fire Dragon. Like the Sea Dragon, you'll only encounter one of these in the game, and you have to hit it in the head to kill it. Make sure you position yourself properly while flying before it appears, or you'll miss your chance. | Hinokami | |
 |
Keseus | Kezeus flies back and forth across the screen, stopping to shoot lightning periodically. You need to hit it in the mouth when it's open, right before he fires. Just stand on the edge of the screen, and duck if he flies over you. | Hinokami |
 |
Daikok | This can be a rather difficult battle. Laser beams are dropping on your head, as well as Daikok firing beams from his eyes. You need to jump and hit Daikok in the eye when it's open. The easiest thing to do is stand still and cast Hatten, if you time it right, you'll hit the open eye with every shot. | Hinokami |
 |

Try to avoid them and jump up to shoot the Demon. You can hit it anywhere and anytime, it doesn't matter. | Pyramid |
 |
When you shoot these ogre creatures, they will split into 4 smaller creatures that attack you. It's best to use the Nobota spell so you can kill them with one shot, or just jump over them. | Yomotsu | |
