SwordsKoishi

== Overview ==
SwordsKoishi is a formidable foe, possible cyborg upgrade of Youmushi Konpaku, and Empyreal-tier Koishi summoned with an item called "UltraScrap".
== Appearance ==
SwordsKoishi has a rustic and asymmetric appearance all over itself, with a primarily yellow and black color palette. She has a missing left arm, replaced with a shotgun after the elbow (indicated by it's firing sounds), and her right arm is elongated as well as holding a sword. She has a blocky robotic "head" worn as a hat, and her satori eye seems to still be regardless attached to her.
In Phase 2, SwordsKoishi loses her shotgun and emits steaming-hot rage.
== Behavior ==
Compared to most other Major Threat-tier Koishis, SwordsKoishi is somewhat simple. She has two phases divided over 200 HP, and a relatively simple attack pattern. She is designed to be a tutorial boss to Major Threats as a concept, like how Swordsmachine's behavior in ULTRAKILL is short and memorizable.
=== Phase 1 ===
* SwordsKoishi's only attack is a shotgun blast after briefly moving around. This is Parriable before the firing shot and deals fair damage.
=== Phase 2 (120 HP) ===
After losing her shotgun, SwordsKoishi starts to go apeshit.
* SwordsKoishi will dash three times in random directions, and be parriable on the final hit.
* SwordsKoishi will dash once in a random direction, and be parriable on the final hit.
== Koishagony and Tundrashi ==
SwordsKoishis Koishagony and Tundrashi are a pair of wannabe SwordsKoishis that show up after using a Slab III. They are Lux Empyreal tier and share a combined worth of 32000 KC.
=== Appearance ===
Both are recolors of SwordsKoishi, albeit both have inverted color palettes. Koishagony is red with blue highlights, and Tundrashi is blue with red highlights.
=== Behavior ===
Koishagony and Tundrashi fight with SwordsKoishi's two phases; Koishagony uses SwordsKoishi's melee attacks, while Tundrashi fights with SwordsKoishi's ranged attacks. However, both have changes to their behavior:
* Koishagony's melee lunge attack strikes twice, with windows to parry at the end. Her three-strikes attack now elapses six strikes, with a parry at the end.
* Tundrashi's ranged fire attack fires four times total, with a parry window before and after the attack has elapsed. She also has a second attack that consists of a much shorter amount of time relocating before firing.
Notably, both have to be defeated to become collectible; if only one is defeated in 30 seconds, the fallen Koishi reheals to 60 HP.
== Trivia ==
=== Both ===
* SwordsKoishi and her copycats have one of the widest sprites in the game, at 489x443 pixels.
* It is unclear how much of the trio are respectively robotic (or cybernetic) and Koishi. Is SwordsKoishi a cybernetic Koishi? A Koishi with organic matter yet mysteriously cybernetic parts? How would that explain the shotgun? We'll never know.
=== SwordsKoishi ===
* Her description references the book Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? by Philip K. Dick, the book that would inspire the movie franchise Blade Runner.
** It is also in reference to the ULTRAKILL track "Do Robots Dream of Eternal Sleep?"EDITORS NOTE: This link will become non-funcitonal once the Act 3 soundtrack is released. Change it when that happens, which again, references the above novel.
* SwordsKoishi was apparently very difficult to program solely due to Marecrisium fudging up on the phase transition system; formerly, SwordsKoishi was to swap between ranged attacks and melee attacks depending on player position, but this broke quickly and thus she was returned to a more traditional fighting style.
* She has the same color palette as fucking bees. According to all known laws of avia
* She is currently the weakest Empyreal-tier Major Threat, at 200 HP.
=== Koishagony and Tundrashi ===
* COPY THAT, COPYCAT!
* Theoretically, Koishagony and Tundrashi's combined KC total of 32000 would make them the costliest Koishis on release, outweighing Koishi Senri by merely 1000 KC. However, they are not considered as such because both are separate Koishis worth 16000 each.
* Koishagony was formerly named "Agonishi", but this was changed because it felt repetitive. Marecrisium is aware of how the former name rolls off the tongue better.
* Koishagony and Tundrashi are FTK2's first dual boss.
* Notably, neither of them play SwordsKoishi's defeat sound.
* They are currently the weakest Major Threat at 120 HP each; combined, they share the same HP as Minoshi Prime.
