The last judge is hard, but in a really useful way - if you're not keeping your eyes on the enemy and proactively reading their tells, you're not going to be able to enjoy the back half of the game as much.

I had to kind of retrain my eyes to be able to beat this one... All throughout the game up to that point, I was so enthralled with the spectacle of combat that I'd be watching myself more than the enemy. But that leads to passivity.
