How to unlock the A Perfect 10 achievement in NINJA BLADE - Definitive Guide
This one is written wrong. Its not 10 perfect but 20 perfects.
So when you get a Quick Time Event (QTE) you have to wait until the circle is the same as the triggered button. The screen will say PERFECT on it so you know you have it.
The best and easiest place for this was the 1st level.
The button presses are X,X Y,Y, A,A for the QTEs. After you get them you fight the Pox Giant. Let him grab you (Right hand will wind back sideways). Press the corresponding button mash to get the perfect. Do this 14 times if you got the first six perfects. You will need at least 2 First Aid sprays to make it through this

This is the perfect spot to do it. I counted the six initial ones, then for the 'Endure' bits, I only had to do another 8, so 14 in total. It's clearly very glitchy but just stick it, there's no better/easier place in the game to do it.

I think glitch is patched I got on pox battle with 10 in a row. "Did all 10 on pox boss when he grabs you". Well i got the first 6 perfect just missed 1st pox boss one thought it was just A, but is changes from A, X, B, and Y.

Contrary to the description you have to do twenty in row. A perfect press is when the outer ring passes the outer line of the shown image.
The first 6 inputs in Mission 1 are:
2*2 Flying Demons, Dodge against Pox Giant
If you get these six perfects, battle the Pox Giant. Let yourself grab fourteen more times and the achievement will pop up. Or do the whole twenty times with the grabs, but you will need one or two first aid sprays to survive it, if you haven't upgraded your Health gauge.
[EDIT]
How I finally got this one!! - Very similar to other solution..
Set difficulty to Easy(reduces damage taken) and QTE to easy (seams to make a small difference), and startup mission 1.
Play till your first encounter with Pox Giant. No need to attack him, just stand infront of him and wait till he raises his right hand in a slapping motion. If he makes a fist or raises his left hand dodge back and to one side, then return to just infront of him.
Let him grab you, this will trigger a QTE with a random button press (as noted lower down). There is just enough reaction time to hit it about 10 times after seeing what button you need to press to get a perfect.
You should be able to withstand at least 12 grabs without needing to use a health spray, unless you took damage from one of his other attacks. If you messup, just restart from checkpoint, and try again.
I counted 9 times that he grabbed me before the achievement popped (blame my dyslexia). It should pop just as you get the last Perfect.
Leaving the original list i posted for mission 1 previously bellow as someone might prefer a list method.
[/EDIT]
For those that are realy battling with this one, and need a list of the QTE's. (I have dyslexia, and cannot react fast enough without pre-lining up on the buttons) here is the full list of QTE button press's (Normal Difficulty) for Mission one:
Pox Giant Todome chance 1
(Beware that if he grabs you its a random button QTE)
Todome!
Pox Giant Todome chance 2
Todome!
Arachne Todome Chance
(~10)
(~10)
(~10)
Todome!
I hope this helps someone else.
Using this list i'm getting closer to the 10 in a row. (counted 9 perfects in a row so far then i messup)
