Shoots and leaves is a green weapon skin in Akayuki, awarded for reaching the top of the bamboo parkour course. Its jade-like appearance makes it a cosmetic option for a green-themed outfit, but obtaining it requires completing the climb rather than simply finding the course.

How to Find the Bamboo Parkour Course

Start in the main area and use the Sakura bonfire as your first landmark. The route to the skin follows a trail from that bonfire, passes a gate, and leads to a parkour course made from bamboo.

1. Go to the Sakura bonfire from the main area. This is the starting landmark for the route.
2. Follow the trail from the bonfire. Continue along it toward the gate.
3. Pass the gate and look for the bamboo course. The gate comes before the bamboo platforms, so use that order to confirm you are following the described route.
4. Begin the climb. Your objective is to reach the top of the course; arriving at its entrance does not award the skin.

The available instructions identify these landmarks but do not give compass directions or a platform-by-platform route. Follow the main area → Sakura bonfire → trail → gate → bamboo course sequence rather than relying on an unsupported shortcut.

Step-by-Step Walkthrough

1. Check Your Movement Setup

Before committing to the climb, consider whether your current sword makes the jumps harder to control. The community guide reports repeated difficulty with the EI sword because its dash travels a long distance, making it awkward for this course. The creator then switches to Tachi, citing its higher poise recovery. These are observations from the demonstration, not a requirement to use a particular weapon. [src-356d0a0244]

If you are struggling with jump-related poise use, the same guide recommends unequipping your sword to make jumping consume less poise. Treat this as an optional adjustment rather than an additional unlock condition. [src-356d0a0244]

2. Climb Using Jumps and Dashes

Work upward by jumping and dashing between the bamboo landing points. The demonstration specifically describes trying to dash, jump, and land on the bamboo, and shows that these landings can be difficult. [src-356d0a0244]

Focus on reaching the next landing point rather than assuming one long dash will carry you safely through a section. The reported trouble with the EI sword is particularly relevant if you find yourself traveling farther than intended. If that happens, reconsider your movement setup before continuing to use the same approach. [src-356d0a0244]

The source does not supply exact jump timings, a required dash sequence, or instructions for every platform. There is therefore no supported universal input sequence to follow: the practical goal is to make each bamboo landing and continue upward.

3. Reach the Top

Continue climbing until you reach the top of the bamboo course. This is the completion condition for obtaining Shoots and leaves, and the guide states that the skin is awarded immediately upon reaching it. [src-356d0a0244]

You do not need to infer a separate collection step from the creator’s later cosmetic demonstration. The stated acquisition method is completing the climb.

Tips for Difficult Jumps

• Distinguish access from completion. Finding the gate and bamboo course puts you on the correct route, but the reward requires reaching the top.
• Reconsider an overly long dash. The guide specifically identifies the EI sword’s long dash as a source of difficulty during its attempts. [src-356d0a0244]
• Consider the demonstrated alternatives. Switching to Tachi for poise recovery or unequipping the sword to reduce jumping’s poise cost are both suggestions made in the guide. Neither is stated to be mandatory. [src-356d0a0244]
• Expect the platforming to require care. Although the route from the main area is described as simple, the creator struggles with the bamboo jumps before completing the ascent. [src-356d0a0244]

Rewards and Appearance

The confirmed reward is Shoots and leaves, a green weapon skin with an appearance described as resembling jade.

The creator also observes a reward of 250 on a later ascent after already owning the skin, but explicitly expresses uncertainty about whether it occurs every time or every other time. The excerpt does not identify what the 250 represents, so do not treat it as a confirmed repeatable farming reward or assume a fixed payout schedule. [src-356d0a0244]

For cosmetic matching, the guide suggests pairing the skin with green-themed clothing, accessories, or hair. Those suggestions are styling ideas only; they are not part of obtaining the skin. [src-356d0a0244]
