Tips and Tricks on how to Defeat Akaza, PROPERLY:
- Make sure you have a squad, and let each other perform their attacks first, similar to how you'd do with Kaigaku.
- Don't let him to use his abilities, or teleport onto you or your allies.
- Lock him into an infinite combo, and hit as hard as you can.
- Use the wall cheese method (attacking him when he's behind a wall), but don't use moves with high knock-back or he will teleport to you if you knock him too far back. (This might not work anymore due to the buff of 2.95, he'll just tp through the wall now)
- If you have the Agatsuma family, you can use Sleepy Awake as soon as Akaza starts eating you. This will glitch Akaza.
- If you can cancel Akaza eating Giyu more than once, he may become glitched. You will not receive any EXP if you kill a glitched Akaza, but it may be a good technique if you're grinding for Doma's cape.
