How do you do that attack where you ride down the spine of the monster btw?
Aha the flashy gooseberry fool in world was new to me, took me a while to work it out. You press the attack button while in the sliding animation and you'll do it if you hit the monster, and you can also do it like in 4 Ultimate where you just dash off a ledge towards a monster while in demon mode.

I don't know about longsword but with the new HBG silkbind counter I didn't initially realise it would work on the Mizu's beam or even the bubbles
Yeah this. With LS you'll also want to build spirit gauge by doing the shoulder button combo when a monster's knocked down or in some other long animation. I don't remember
exactly what it does, but maintaining some level of charge (ideally highest) means more damage.
