Most of the caves of evil, especially the mook armies, are made for you to abuse special techs.
The Genroku girls have a relatively easier time on caves of evil because they have a lot of busted special techs out of the box, Gonbe and Arashimaru are more technical (read: they suck) so it's not as easy for them, Rajyaki generally stomps everything though.
>Some of this bosses in this game have multi-hitting, (almost) full-screen attacks that I have zero idea how to counter.
Base game bosses are all about either dodging or using special techs to i-frame through their shit, Genroku bosses are more demanding, Gashadokuro's full screen skull cascade for instance requires you to switch to Kusarigama and use the windmill attack to get through it, you can't just i-frame through it because it lasts a few seconds, Arashimaru's bosses in general are built around checking whether you can fully use his shitty but versatile moveset, Gonbe is very similar but arguably worse since he's a random farmer so he doesn't have any of the busted shit other MCs have like airdashes, and most of his moveset is crap so you really need to know what to use, which is your bamboo spear most of the time, the hoe is a trap for instance and you should really not use it outside of some hyper specific cases.
