Among the many materials you can obtain in Onimusha: Way of the Sword is Cotton Cloth. In this section, we'll explain how to obtain this material so you can use it for different types of enhancements. Remember that the material chest locations listed here correspond to your first visit to each area and are also covered in our story walkthrough. As you progress through the game, new chests containing this material may appear in different locations.
Yes. Cotton Cloth is one of the materials you can purchase from Yorimasa.
Cotton Cloth is also rewarded for completing certain missions. You can obtain it by completing the following:
You'll find one in the locked room beside the Hall Spirit Mirror.
Continue until you reach the chest containing the Oni Bow. Once you have it, turn around and look through the broken bars in the wall opposite the locked room's door. From there, you can shoot the lock and break it.
You can now open the door, enter the room and collect the Cotton Cloth from the chest.
You'll find one north of the northeastern corner of Rokudo-chinnoji Temple, the main hub area of the map. You're looking for a chest inside a small shed beside a house.
There's another in a chest east of the Higashioji Street Spirit Mirror, on the northern side of the field in a courtyard full of enemies.
You'll find another inside a chest in the courtyard of a house in the northwestern corner of the explorable area, inside a compound controlled by enemies.
You'll find another inside the house in the western Rift compound. You'll pass through this area as part of the story.
Once you've unlocked the ability to destroy Malice Barriers, a chest will appear in one of the courtyards that previously contained a Stout Pillar, northeast of Rokudo-chinnoji Temple, containing another Cotton Cloth.
After clearing the Malice from Eastern Kyoto as part of the story, you'll find another chest containing one piece behind a house in the southeastern area.
There's another chest inside a house to the northeast.
You'll find another chest west-southwest of the previous one, beside a Treasure chest.
You'll find another piece inside a chest in the stables in the west-southwestern part of the southeastern fields, south of the watchtower.
You'll find another piece in the alley where you complete Pale Lights in a Night Sky.
The chest is at the far end, up a couple of steps near the final Genma.
Once you can enter Kennin-ji Temple as the story progresses, head to the southwestern corner of the courtyard to find a chest containing more Cotton Cloth.
As you progress through the story, you'll eventually reach Toribeno, the southeasternmost part of the fields. Follow the natural route until you reach the southeastern corner, where several huts are located. Look in the northwestern corner of this small village to find the chest.
In the same area, you'll find another chest along a path to the north. You'll pass right by it on your way to the third Malice-emitting plant.
In the south-southwestern part of Kyoto, where the Malice recedes shortly after the previous chest, there's a Cotton Cloth chest on the ground floor of a building near the southern intersection, east of the southern bridge over the Kamo River.
There's another one at the intersection southwest of Rokudo-chinnoji Temple, on the street leading directly toward the fields.
In the southernmost part of these fields, among the bamboo, there's a small hut that an enemy will burst out of. Inside you'll find another chest containing Cotton Cloth.
There's another one in a courtyard northwest of the previous location. The compound is packed with enemies, and the chest is in the southeastern section.
Directly northwest of the previous courtyard is a complex of buildings. You'll find another chest containing this material in the central courtyard.
There's another one inside a building on the street to the west.
If you head all the way to the southwesternmost corner of the area, you'll find a storehouse with a ladder. The route through it eventually takes you into a courtyard containing another chest with Cotton Cloth.
There's another chest near one of the Rifts in Shadows Fall, along the path leading toward the objective from the south.
Once you can reach the far northwestern part of Kyoto, starting from The Demon on the Mount, follow the eastern riverbank north, directly east of the sandbar. It won't take long to spot a small building with a ladder and a wall-running section on the roof.
The wall-running section takes you into a courtyard with enemies, with the chest located inside the building.
You'll find another chest on the upper floor of a building south of Shijo Street, reached by climbing the ladder from the ground floor.
If you continue south along that street and turn east as soon as possible, you'll reach a cart containing another chest with Cotton Cloth.
You can find more inside a chest in the courtyard used during Mysteries of Kyoto - The Faceless. Follow the walkthrough for that mission, as this area only becomes accessible during it.
Once you can head east from the Shijo Street Spirit Mirror, enter the building north of the Malice to find another chest containing Cotton Cloth.
You'll find a chest containing Cotton Cloth on Underground Level 3. It's located just before a set of ropes you need to cut to continue through the area, so it's difficult to miss.
You'll find a chest in the northern courtyard of the ruined building. You'll pass right beside it as part of the story, and the route is narrow enough that it's almost impossible to miss.
Later, once you reach the dungeons and obtain the Dungeon Key, you'll find another chest containing Cotton Cloth inside the southwestern cell.
You'll find a chest in the northwestern part of the Temple area, inside the first house.
There's another one in the loft containing the second Weaver maintaining the barrier.
When you reach the village south of Hozukyo Gorge, head east. In the southeastern corner is a house containing a Treasure; the Cotton Cloth chest is inside the house next door.
You'll find a chest in the southeastern corner of the Second Layer, where you encounter the first group of Genma.
