I also cleaned up my transcription of Haohmaru's theme song in Samurai Shodown IV, Shuradō, in shinobue notation.

the original piece is for shakuhachi so I used some shakuhachi symbols like the atari and the nayashi, rather than prescribing an adaptation of them. shinobue players are free to adapt those however they see fit. the fingerings are for 8-hon chōshi, otherwise transpose it.
