Katana Zero - Story Summary

Published 2019-12-08
From its outset, the story of Katana Zero is veiled in Mystery and Intrigue. Questions are answered as the game is played, but only more of them are raised - particularly at the conclusion of what is referred to as its First Act. Let's tell the story from the beginning to recap all we learned and to prepare ourselves for the inevitable Second Act.

I know this is a long winded explanation, but I wanted to tell the story as it's told to the player so it's like we have the full journey of the game in the video: start by knowing nothing and then learning just how deep the conspiracy goes.

If you'd like a much shorter, condensed summary, then The Inhuman One has a video that just summarizes the end state of the game:

What kind of videos would you like to see next? Questions that we'd like answered in the follow up? Summaries on a few things we see in the game?

Thanks for watching!

    I saw an interview with the creator. The MC is not Japanese, he’s just a weeb.
  • @Pj_901
    The director of the game said he can’t slow down time . He just has hyper focus . Which makes everything to him seem slower

    15:13 i beat this game about 5 times already and didn't know that Zero had anything other than the fish head to offer lol

    7:13 This game once again amazes on how much ATTENTION TO DETAIL this game has. You can see the red dot on his head and his face changing.

    In the cathedral flashback, I think Zero's hearing Fifteen's words because the font is the same as the "He is not the dragon." font.

    it's just astounding how some devs are able to fit the whole new and wholesome world into just 200 megabytes while others fail completely no matter how many gigabytes they use.
  • @neonboi8891
    Not even Squatch can explain why Zero has such amazing moves in the dance floor

    34:50 I like this, they're fighting already, a conversation takes both of them Into the future, the battle was already over when they started talking to eachother, damn. time travel
  • @sneeznoodle
    In the "Kill the child" sequence, as it glitches away, you can just see the child turn into the girl fo a second. Thought that was neat.
  • @roxas0133
    Wait THER WE'RE CHOCO STICKS?!!?! I WAS GIVING THAT GIRL FISH HEADS FOR THE PAST 6 PLAYTHROUGHS
  • @tomjack1000000
    I really hope we get a sequel. It feels like the game we got was only half of the experience, a very solid experience but I want more
  • @samwow102
    Is the swordsman actually japanese? The constant comments about his outfit being a "bathrobe" and him being obsessed with samurai flicks gave me the impression that he was just a weeaboo.

    I felt as though the “monster” ending was not a vision, or the mind of zero fighting the psychologist. I think the psychologist did take the drugs and the drugs allowed him to mess with zeros mind. It then becomes a battle of zeros addiction versus himself. The giant monster is zero and the syringes are the addiction wanting to take hold. After the fight zero won, and didn’t have to take another dose. he was able to fight the withdrawal that every other null had fought and lost. Possible creating a “true ending” or “good ending”. This is just how I saw it at least.

    38:42 see how zero picks up leviathan. That explains why leviathan was under his couch.
  • @noplesnono9656
    16:30 to 16:47 was a good part of this video you manage to blend your narration with the glitching which is neat
  • @durandmefew
    This is an extremely welcome surprise. I finished the game recently. It is amazing to see you cover it. Keep it up Squatch
