10. Great Colored Carp - Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice

Koi fish (also known as colored carp) are considered graceful, beautiful, and represent good luck and fortune. The Great Colored Carp, a giant koi fish from Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, is a huge monstrosity with a human-like face and rows of human teeth.

Found in the late game location Fountainhead Palace, the Great Colored Carp is introduced when Sekiro tries to cross a bridge. The enormous fish leaps out of the water, destroying the bridge and swimming down into the deep.

Eventually Sekiro dives into the water, searching for a hidden entrance into the palace. Following the Great Colored Carp, the fish becomes aggressive and if it spots the player, it will attack. There are hiding places, but if the carp sees you it can destroy the building your hiding in.

Later on, Sekiro is given the option to feed the Great Colored Carp and get an up close and personal look at the monstrosity. There's also the option to poison the supposedly immortal fish and many players found great joy feeding the poisoned meal to the monstrous beast.

But the true horror of this over-fed fish is the implication it used to be human. After killing the Great Colored Carp, players can find a former Pot Noble who has transformed into a carp. Is this the beginning of a new Great Colored Carp's reign?
