Four one-on-one fights may seem long and tedious, but there are situations that you can take advantage of to make the fights a little easier.  The first is after a Doppleganger tries to Dash attack you.  It will collide with the wall and become stunned momentarily.  This is an excellent opportunity for you to strike at it undefended.  It is possible to lure the Dopplegangers into near-continuous Dash attacks and strike at them in retaliation.  However, there's a more sure-fire technique that's a little more proactive.  As a left-hander, when you face up, your sword swings wide to the left.  When you stand face-to-face with a Doppleganger, your sword will likely slam harmlessly against its shield.  However, if you stand more to the right of the Doppleganger while you face upward, instead of face to face, you sword will swing wide enough to strike the  Doppleganger behind the shield, earning you a safe hit.  What's more, the Doppleganger is likely to rush right back into the position it was in when you hit it so that you can continue to strike it from this location.  Even though the Purple Link takes the most number of hits, with this technique, it's sure to go down with little struggle on your part.  Just to be on the safe side, you can activate the Cane of Byrna for added protection during the final fight with the Purple Link.  Once the final Doppleganger is defeated, the secret ending is yours to behold.
