Pick a style before you farm horns

Urokodaki in the Bamboo Grove underwater cave is the Water stop: 5000 Wen and 30 Demon Horns for Surface Slash through Dead Calm. Rengu on the house top near the red bridge from Mistfall Village is Flame for 10 Demon Horns, with Unknowing Fire through Purgatory. Saneri on the snowy water platform from the bear area wants 50 Demon Horns for Wind. Obari on the cliff above Windy Peak wants 20 Demon Horns and 5 Beast Cores for Serpent. Those four costs are the ones the trainer table actually prints.

Zentaro’s Thunder route sits on the mountain near the bear village and requires Wall Climb; his material list is unpublished. Gyorei on the lower path from the bear area requires Axe and Mace unlocked, with materials unpublished. Tengai in Icevail Valley snow also needs Wall Climb for access. Shinora on the Butterfly Mansion roof lists no horn or Wen cost. Unlock Wall Climb before you path to Icevail or mountain Thunder so the landmark is not a wasted walk. Compare three sheets if you are torn between Water’s Wen sink, Flame’s cheap horns, and Wind’s 50-horn wall. The tray repeats trainer, landmark, requirements, and forms so you can read them stacked on a phone. Serpent’s Obari cost is real even without a showcase title. Insect’s Shinora roof is real even without a printed Z-X-C-V-B list. Stone’s Q&A is the first-party note that the launch set is about eight styles. Anything named Love Breathing on another URL is outside that eight.

Official uploads versus roster-only names

Water, Thunder, Flame, Wind, Stone, and Sound each have an Ouw Productions showcase. Use Compare on this page to pin trainer, landmark, cost, and forms for up to three of those kits, then open the matching watch link. Stone’s upload is also the Q&A that says the game is built from the ground up and plans about eight breathing styles and nine demon arts at launch.

Serpent is a launch roster name with Obari’s cost, but no showcase title from the official channel. Insect has a watch URL without a full printed form list. Skip a community combo for those two until you have seen the kit in-game. Love Breathing and other names that appear only on cloned locale guides are not in this launch eight.

Water’s forms run Surface Slash, Whirlpool, Water Wheel, Constant Flux, Dead Calm. Thunder runs Thunder Clap and Flash through Flaming Thunder God. Flame runs Unknowing Fire through Purgatory. Wind runs Mountain Wind through Idaten Typhoon. Stone runs Volcanic Rock through Ares of Justice. Sound runs Bursting Bloom through String Performance. Those lists are the printed ones; Insect and Serpent stay shorter on purpose.

Frequently asked questions

Which Breathing Style should I unlock first?

Pay the cost you can actually farm. Flame is 10 Demon Horns at Rengu. Water is 5000 Wen and 30 Demon Horns at Urokodaki. Wind is 50 Demon Horns. Serpent is 20 Demon Horns and 5 Beast Cores. Thunder and Sound need Wall Climb before you travel. Watch the official upload for the style you will main, then walk to that trainer rather than visiting all eight landmarks first.

Does every style have an official video?

Water, Thunder, Flame, Wind, Stone, and Sound do. Insect has an upload whose title does not list every form. Serpent has trainer and cost data without an Ouw Productions showcase title. Those two rows stay short on purpose instead of inventing form names.
