** On a minor note, at the start of the game, there's a rock behind Susano's house that you would ordinarily need Power Slash 2 for. You can't dent it. But combine your power with Susano's power, and he slices through the thing just as easily as the straw dummies in his yard.

** On Susano isn't just really good with a minor note, at the start of the game, there's sword, he's good enough to ''equal divinity.'' There's a rock behind Susano's his house that you would ordinarily you'd normally need Power Slash 2 for. You can't dent it. But combine your power for, but you can take it out with Susano's power, and he slices through the thing just as easily as the straw dummies in help. This means that, all on his yard.own with nothing but raw strength, he's ''mastered Power Slash.''

* After receiving Amaterasu's help with cutting off seven of Orochi's heads, just like he'd needed her help to do anything useful throughout the game, he tells her that he doesn't need her help for the last one... and proceeds to cleave the final head in half all the way to the base of his neck ''unaided'' with his ultimate attack, "Celestial Cleaver" and rescues his girl. Good for him.

* Issun's BigDamnHeroes moment after [[spoiler: Yami electrocutes Amaterasu to near death.]]
* The final battle against [[spoiler: [[BigBad Yami]]. You finally regain your former glory, becoming Shiranui, including the awesome wisp things and markings. Even your brush gets a makeover! It just fills you with pride and happiness that you can finally defeat Yami. It also couples with the [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments crowing moment of heartwarming]] because it turns out Issun hasn't abandoned you. It makes how long the game is even more worthwhile. ]]

** Yami gets one when it ''seems'' that he's down and out for the count, but in the middle of Amaterasu's victory howl, ''he gets up, grabs her, and shocks and drains the godly power out of her'' before transforming into his final form, right before Amaterasu's moment, no less!

* Really, any time Amaterasu uses the Celestial Brush to help somebody accomplish a task that neither of them can do alone. Susano is the biggest instance of receiving that kind of help, but there's also the times when she helps Mr. Orange revive Konohana (the Konohana Shuffle ''works'', just not well enough to fully revive the tree), helping Mr. Cherry purify the trees in the capital city (neither he nor Amaterasu can do it by themselves), helping the dancers in the Dragon Palace reawaken the Mermaid Springs... the fact that Nippon is full of [[BadassNormal]]s can be easy to overlook at times.

* The fight with Nechku. At first, it seems like you're going to take him down, old boss style... but then a familiar theme start to play and Shiranui appears. Nechku attacks Shiranui, who just reflects the projectiles with his own souped-up version of Power Slash. The fight itself is less of a fight and more of a CurbstompBattle as you watch Shiranui utterly wreck Nechku with his own Celestial Brush techniques.

** Even ''before'' that, Susano comes and confronts Orochi on his own, and rejects the [[DealWithTheDevil monster's offer of power.]] Considering that he spent his time trying to distance himself from his legendary ancestor's reputation, it's a bold step for him.

If you mess up your Power Slashes, he always ends up getting attacked by Orochi, tossed around with a black eye and destroyed clothes. Does he back away? Not in a 100 years.

* A pretty big off-screen one for Susano. Both Ammy and Susano enter the area where Orochi is through the same tunnel. Except, Ammy had to use almost ''all'' of her Brush Powers to get through the Moon Cave. Susano's just a guy with a sword, who just happens to be ''really good with it.''

** It gets even better in Okamiden. It turns out that Chibiterasu had been helping Susano slash off Orochi's heads too, along with his mother, but he didn't help him deliver the final blow. Later, he goes back 100 years and also helps Nagi slay Orochi, but this time, the game prompts you (as Chibi) to help him deliver the final blow. This means that Susano was able to deliver the final blow to Orochi all on his own, something even his famous ancestor was unable to do (though nobody knows about that, not even Susano himself).

** You also get to see his ancestor Nagi in action. Sure, he was just as big of a ButtMonkey as "Pops", but the constant set-backs didn't deter him from making the same dramatic entry and killing blows on True Orochi.
