Actually Four Mooks: While you can see demons on the world map, once you enter in battle with them, extra demons teleport in to fight with it. This sometimes pulls in other nearby symbols, but just as often pulls reinforcements from thin air.

Conflicting Loyalty
 Shin Megami Tensei V (Video Game) / int_14c791fb
comment
Conflicting Loyalty: In addition to picking between warring factions, the game forces the player to confront this trope in its side quests. Every now and then, one side quest will direct you to defeat a demon, only for that same demon to try and convince you that the questgiver is deceiving and using you for their own goals. You then get the opportunity to either switch sides and take out the quest-giving demon, or stick with the original plan and fight away.

Does This Remind You of Anything?: One sidequest has a group of Lilim try to make their way to Tokyo so they can live better lives among humans, but a Principality blocks the way, firmly believing that they plan to do harm by virtue of the fact that they're demons. The Lilim even call you out on being just another Bethel lackey if you side with the Principality. Anyone who's suffered similar issues with immigration officers will know that feeling all too well.

Home Guard: Bethel is an organization tasked with defeating any and all demons from Da'at threatening to invade the human world, and align themselves with angels and other gods. As the game is set in Japan, Bethel Japan receives the most focus and is at the forefront of all conflicts the protagonist finds himself in.

Genre Savvy: After defeating Belial in Michael's sidequest, a Nebiros appears and demands that he stop fighting, because he knows the Nahobino has "the power of shadows" and would be able to fuse Belial should he kill him. This may be the smartest thing an SMT enemy has ever done, because this indeed denies you Belial's fusion unless you side with him.

comment
Lord British Postulate: The fully-powered Ishtar fight is meant to be seen as a Hopeless Boss Fight due to her ridiculous eight Press Turns and her unique skill Dreadful Gleam, highly encouraging the player to go out and destroy the devices that are giving her those powers. The thing is that while Dreadful Gleam does Pierce through resistances, the same cannot be said about her other Zio skills. And since hitting an enemy that absorbs or reflects elements gets rid of all of your Press Turns at once, just having one demon in your party that does that can mitigate her biggest strength.

Multiple Endings
 Shin Megami Tensei V (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77
comment
Multiple Endings: As is per usual with SMT games, though, unlike past entries, your alignment only slightly affects which ending you're aiming for - in fact, being a specific alignment locks you out of none of them. Restore God's Order Ending: The protagonist decides to take up the posthumous will of the God of Law, teaming up with Abdiel and Dazai to bring it back. The Nahobino succeeds in taking the Empyrean Throne, restoring all those lost to the war between order and chaos, and resumes the old order the God of Law upheld, having humanity live prosperous through devotion, though the existence of free will is questionable in a world where humans do not think for themselves. Notably one where there are fewer negative side effects and the Nahobino seems the happiest, and even Lucifer admits the world will be freed to an extent, with the added bonus of it being hinted that the Nahobino has restored those who have been lost, which may include his allies. Rebuild The World Ending: The Nahobino sides with Koshimizu and Atsuta's vision of creating a world where a myriad of gods share power and dominion over mankind. Humanity offers their faith in each god equally, choosing a life of diversity and building an ever-changing society in the process. But this world inevitably derails into one of eternal strife as warring ideologies between humanity's factions break out. While saddened, the Nahobino still sticks to his convictions of ensuring humanity's right to choose is preserved rather than be chosen for. Destroy the Throne Ending: The Nahobino achieves Yakumo and Nuwa's goal of destroying the Throne of Creation. The world is not remade and the demons still present begin to war with humanity, kickstarting an age of strife which claims numerous casualties and destroys what is left of the old world. But with the Nahobino ascending themselves and the means to combat demons left behind, humanity has a chance to eventually win against hostile demonic hordes and claims the world for themselves. Nahobino doesn't appear to be as happy as he is on the Law ending, but remains pleased by his hope for the outcome of the ensuing bloody battles. The hidden ending: The fourth ending that can be achieved by completing certain sidequests and picking the "Destroy The Throne" ending. After defeating Abdiel, Nuwa reappears to reveal that her and Yakumo's ultimate goal wasn't just to destroy the Throne. Instead, they sought to use its power to create a new world free from demons and gods alike. With this option now in mind, The Nahobino decides to claim his right as Ruler and sit on the Throne of Creation. As the new Top God, the Nahobino creates a new world mirroring that of the old but free from all gods and demons, including Aogami who passes away approving of the protagonist's decision. Every human character who died during the events of the game are now alive and well, living their normal lives to the fullest. However, the ending is one of the contradictions, as it can only be upheld by the great will of the Nahobino, who as the only Top God, has secured a position that the God of Law himself wished to be in. Thus as the Nahobino doesn't see himself as above his own laws, he must exist outside of this new world, instead letting a clone take his place who he observes from afar, possibly pondering of the life he could have had while he must maintain the paradox of a world without other gods and demons upheld by the will of a single Creator who cannot intervene.

Ambiguous Situation
 Shin Megami Tensei V (Video Game) / int_1f6983f7
comment
The "Create a world for humanity alone" ending is more sweet than bitter but has its own downsides: All your friends are alive again, the world returns to a pre-apocalypse state and no gods or demons will ever interfere again and the Protagonist is living a happy normal life … only it’s a clone of the protagonist, as the Nahobino (the one we were playing as) is only allowed to observe the new world but he’s not allowed to be a part in it. However, it's an Ambiguous Situation if he and the other Gods are still around and forced to observe only, or if the Nahobino himself is choosing not to intervene to keep up his promise. Regardless, while the Nahobino has restored the world, he has made it clear he is not above his own laws, and his glimpse at his clone hints of the normal life he could have lived.

For instance, the protagonist gets transported to Da'at after going through the Takanawa Bridge Overpass, and the opening area has you heading first for Tokyo Tower, followed by the National Diet Building.

Chekhov's Gun: Completing 75% of the Demon Compendium has Sophia give you the Seed of Life key item, which does nothing but look pretty. It later becomes relevant in the final dungeon, where you can either unlock Maria, Inanna, or Danu based on which ending route you chose. After completing Isis's request to kill Horus, she carries his head home with her. The head, along with the Winged Sun Crest from Amon's sidequest, turns out to be a vital piece of unlocking Khonsu's true power, enabling his transformation into Khonsu Ra.

Single-Use Shield: The Dampeners are items that grant immunity to one attack of their corresponding element for the party, and they are very effective in negating a telegraphed, potentially dangerous attack from a boss. Attack and Magic Mirrors reflect a strength-based or magic-based attack for one party member. Each of these items also have a corresponding skill that can be learned and used by your demons.

Forced Level-Grinding: Unlike previous Shin Megami Tensei games, there is a new level scaling mechanic that harshly penalizes you for fighting enemies of noticeably higher level than you. You will need to keep your party within at least a tiny handful of levels below your target at minimum, as the penalty's effects increase with greater level gaps to the point where levels matter more than stats if the difference is big enough.

Mythology Gag
 Shin Megami Tensei V (Video Game) / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: The protagonist's half-human form borrows elements from the Masakado designs in Shin Megami Tensei II (particularly the dark ornamental armor with pointed shoulders) and Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne (particularly the long flowing mane of blue hair). The Daily Demon trailers between #166 and #170 all show demons that Raidou could summon in Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne. Battle -Strength- is a remix of Fall'n Gods and Omega from Megami Tensei II. Except for a Dark weakness added for the sake of balance, Cironnup’s resistances are identical to those of Hallelujah, his summoner from Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse. Koshimizu states that the Conception that created Da'at occurred 18 years ago, which is the length of time between the release of Nocturne's original release in Japan and V. Another Nocturne reference is Decarabia refering to Ishthar's Magatsuhi-draining devices as a "Nightmare System", the same as Hikawa's device of the same function. During negotiation, a Demon may tell you they're going to rip off your "mask" while yelling "show me your true form!" Occasionally during negotiations, the demon will challenge the Nahobino to a contest, with the winner being which of the two has more of a specific stat. One of these is a dance contest determined by Magic. One of the students mentions that the volleyball team is up against a school with a gold medalist for a coach, referencing Kamoshida from Persona 5. Much like the IV duology, Matador and the six Book of Revelation Fiends form a fusion chain where each one is required to fuse the next strongest one among them. Daisoujou and Hell Biker are excluded as they were not in those games. The demons leading Chaos in Chiyoda are Surt, Ishtar, and Arioch. This same trio, albeit with Ishtar having been demonized as Astaroth, were Asura's lieutenants in the final dungeon of Shin Megami Tensei I and fought in the same order.

Same Plot Sequel: While the details are different, the game's story heavily mirrors the overall plot Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne, with an Ordinary High-School Student becoming a Half-Human Hybrid after being transported to an Eldritch Location After the End Tokyo where various gods and humans seek to use an "End of the World" Special to implement their own vision for a new world. And meanwhile Lucifer, the one who planted the seeds that allowed you to become a Half-Human Hybrid, seeks to destroy the universal systems that create this particular apocalypse time and time again, becoming the Final Boss as a Strength Equals Worthiness test of your power to bring his dream to life.

Order Is Not Good
 Shin Megami Tensei V (Video Game) / int_2f22531d
comment
Order Is Not Good: Double or perhaps triple subverted. While the angels want to bring back God, they don't necessarily believe in His The Evils of Free Will ideology, leading to them wanting to create a world where both He and free will can exist in unison. Unfortunately, Abdiel, the current leader of the angels, is the only one who still wants to bring forth God's will to the point that she chooses to become a Fallen Angel in protest to His orders - which also means she's the only one able to serve as a Law representative in the ending. On the other hand, the Nahobino appears to be the happiest in the Law ending with even Lucifer admitting that the world can still be freed, and as a chaotic Nahobino can choose the path with an implication that he has a gentler touch, leaves it ambiguous as to how much of Abdiel's extremism will persist.

Breaking Old Trends
 Shin Megami Tensei V (Video Game) / int_311500f5
comment
Breaking Old Trends: For the first time in the series (and the franchise as a whole), the fourth tier (severe) elemental spells have an official suffix (-barion) instead of a different name (though the usual names of the severe tier spells are still present, although as strong spells with a piercing effect). Similar to Shin Megami Tensei Apocalypse, the Hama (Light) and Mudo (Dark) spells, which were previously Useless Useful Spells that either insta-killed a target or did nothing and outright didn't work against bosses, have been changed to now doing Light and Dark elemental damage. The Smirk system in Apocalypse doesn't exist, however, so the insta-kill effect is potentially triggered instead if the target is vulnerable to them. They also share in the (-barion) suffix naming scheme, albeit for third-tier spells. Alice's unique spell "Die for ME!" is no longer the sole third-tier Dark spell, but is instead a medium multi-hit spell. The previous games have often had a pattern in their Lawful, Chaotic, and Neutral heroes: the Lawful hero is a calm, collected and patient person who strives for peaceful options but ends up supporting a hurtful regime, the Chaotic hero is a brash but friendly person who puts personal strength above all and ends up becoming obsessed with power, and the Neutral hero is a kindhearted and valorous person who ultimately puts their faith in humanity. In this game, Dazai seems like the archetypal Chaos hero with his brash personality and desire for power, but is actually the Lawful representative following his Character Development into a more confident person and desire to follow God's will. Atsuta seems like a dead ringer for a Lawful or Neutral hero, but is, in reality, the game's Chaotic representative and is working to achieve the goals of Tsukuyomi. And lastly, Shohei seems like the Lawful or Chaotic hero of the bunch thanks to his stoic demeanor, hatred of demons, and his relationship with Nuwa, but is, in reality, the Neutral hero instead. Normally, the mainline games have had an Apocalypse Cult of some kind as the representative of their respective faction. Here, there are no such cults to be had save for one centered around an Apsaras, and even then it plays next to no story significance whatsoever. As usual, the game starts with the hero waking up, but he doesn't get a weird, prophetic dream, with those who wakes the hero up is killed. Instead, Tao has it. Beelzebub is not a Superboss this time around. His Baal form is fought during a sidequest, and upon losing he implies Lucifer has prevented him from taking his Beelzebub form for undisclosed reasons. It's also the first Shin Megami Tensei game that has it set in an apocalypse that explicitly has humanity dead and buried. The war that broke out in Da'at eighteen years ago wiped out humanity, forcing God to create a miracle Tokyo to help the demons acquire Magatsuhi from it as a wholesale.

Sequel Escalation: Inverted when it comes to recruitable demons, with about half as many available as the IV duology. This is likely due to the game using 3D models, as opposed to IV's sprites.

Kill the Ones You Love: As is tradition for the series, you will have to kill some of your classmates and friends. Some fall to demon possession, while others end up having incompatible views on what to do about the latest "End of the World" Special, forcing you to battle and kill them in endgame if you don't agree with their vision for a new world. And no, unlike in previous instances, you're all alone in this and have to take down basically anyone in your way.

Boring, but Practical
 Shin Megami Tensei V (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6
comment
Boring, but Practical: While you can test out random elements to check for resistances, you can also use a Spyglass, which reveals information about one demon, including their resistances. This is especially effective against Mitamas as it allows you to find their weakness immediately, netting a free rare item with zero guesswork. Spyglasses cost only an affordable 100 Macca at the shop and you can carry 50 of them at once. The default Magatsuhi Skill, Omagatoki: Critical, is fairly basic and bland, but making it so every attack made is a Critical Hit is very useful for every demon that receives it, and can be a godsend when used correctly. Especially early on with skills like Bestial Bite, which deal extra damage if the attack is a crit. Boon Boost only makes your buffs and debuffs last an extra turn, but this also means an extra turn without needing to spend the MP to extend your buffs. This also affects buffs and debuffs bestowed by skills like Golden Apple, Fairy Banquet and Accursed Poison, which are skills that cannot be used in quick succession (or are too expensive to do so). The Magastuhi Wellspring Miracle heals the whole party for a small amount of HP and MP every turn if the Magatsuhi gauge is full. Useful for long battles or conserving MP-restoring items. Puncture Punch is a simple physical attack with a built-in Pierce effect. Considering how the Mitamas have randomized vulnerabilities, this can be a major boon. Toxic Spray is a single target Defense debuff that also has a high chance of poisoning. It's already pretty cheap to use by itself and being classified as an Ailment skill means you can rank it up using Miracles for a pittance to make it even cheaper. Meanwhile, Poison is surprisingly effective and can be downright deadly if you invest in the Poison-boosting passives, meaning the skill remains consistently effective through the entire game. "Knowledge of Tools" allows demons to use items. This allows you to use elemental items to strike enemies' weaknesses, Dampeners to block enemy attacks, curative items, or others without using the Nahobino's turns.

Character Development
 Shin Megami Tensei V (Video Game) / int_3b113b7
comment
The previous games have often had a pattern in their Lawful, Chaotic, and Neutral heroes: the Lawful hero is a calm, collected and patient person who strives for peaceful options but ends up supporting a hurtful regime, the Chaotic hero is a brash but friendly person who puts personal strength above all and ends up becoming obsessed with power, and the Neutral hero is a kindhearted and valorous person who ultimately puts their faith in humanity. In this game, Dazai seems like the archetypal Chaos hero with his brash personality and desire for power, but is actually the Lawful representative following his Character Development into a more confident person and desire to follow God's will. Atsuta seems like a dead ringer for a Lawful or Neutral hero, but is, in reality, the game's Chaotic representative and is working to achieve the goals of Tsukuyomi. And lastly, Shohei seems like the Lawful or Chaotic hero of the bunch thanks to his stoic demeanor, hatred of demons, and his relationship with Nuwa, but is, in reality, the Neutral hero instead.

Took a Level in Kindness: The angels of Bethel, unlike most Law-aligned factions in previous games, have a more benevolent goal in mind. While they still wish to bring back God, they also want to retain humanity's free will, as they believe the two can coexist freely. This doesn't sit well with Abdiel at all, though even she respects humans - she just believes in The Evils of Free Will.

If you go out of your way for it, you can fuse Idun at roughly early mid-game. Idun has the unique skill Golden Apple, a Healing skill that combines the effects of Mediarama and Luster Candy. At the point in the game you can fuse her, Luster Candy is still very far off, and having a skill that buffs and heals the party simultaneously does wonders for slot efficiency and utility, making Idun extremely powerful as a supporter. There is an enhanced version of this skill called Light of Order which also cleanses debuffs, but you get it relatively late compared to Idun and its user is a Guest-Star Party Member so you don't have access to it for 60% of the game.

Bittersweet Ending
 Shin Megami Tensei V (Video Game) / int_40cc0c7e
comment
Bittersweet Ending: Regardless of which ending you get, each comes with their own ups and downs and share one commonality: all your comrades and friends die, either by your hand, or by their competitors, and it is implied the Nahobino is eternally separate from the world. The "restore God's will" ending sees the Nahobino sacrifice free will in order to provide eternal peace and stability to the world. The "rebuild the world" ending gives all humanity the chance to make their own choices regarding ideology, but this naturally results in constant conflict and strife. The "Create a world for humanity alone" ending is more sweet than bitter but has its own downsides: All your friends are alive again, the world returns to a pre-apocalypse state and no gods or demons will ever interfere again and the Protagonist is living a happy normal life … only it’s a clone of the protagonist, as the Nahobino (the one we were playing as) is only allowed to observe the new world but he’s not allowed to be a part in it. However, it's an Ambiguous Situation if he and the other Gods are still around and forced to observe only, or if the Nahobino himself is choosing not to intervene to keep up his promise. Regardless, while the Nahobino has restored the world, he has made it clear he is not above his own laws, and his glimpse at his clone hints of the normal life he could have lived.

After you beat Vasuki, you're free to challenge Shiva, who comes at you at Level 96.note  For comparison's sake, Vasuki comes in at Level 72, and you can't even enter the portal to fight Shiva until Level 80. If you do manage to beat him, you get the chance to fuse him as well as gain his essence. However, beating him means you're able to barrel your way through pretty much everything else in the game, except the Demi-fiend and maybe Lucifer.

Restore God's Order Ending: The protagonist decides to take up the posthumous will of the God of Law, teaming up with Abdiel and Dazai to bring it back. The Nahobino succeeds in taking the Empyrean Throne, restoring all those lost to the war between order and chaos, and resumes the old order the God of Law upheld, having humanity live prosperous through devotion, though the existence of free will is questionable in a world where humans do not think for themselves. Notably one where there are fewer negative side effects and the Nahobino seems the happiest, and even Lucifer admits the world will be freed to an extent, with the added bonus of it being hinted that the Nahobino has restored those who have been lost, which may include his allies.

Infinity -1 Sword
 Shin Megami Tensei V (Video Game) / int_480c69ba
comment
Infinity -1 Sword: Quite a few demons that are recruitable in Taito are strong enough to be brought to the endgame without any issues, and are only beaten out by the top-class demons. Tao is a powerful Hama nuker and valuable support demon that remains relevant the entire way through Taito and a decent bit into the final dungeon. Her Light of Order is a better version of Idun's Golden Apple, she learns Megidola, and her own weakness to dark is eventually cancelled out by her native learning of Null Dark. Overall, Tao is one of the reasons why Taito isn't a complete dead end once you get there. If you can complete her questline and recruit her properly, Amanozako is a strong multi-flavor nuker with specializations in lightning, force, almighty, and even a bit of healing. She has endgame-level spells and great stats for magic nuking, including a natively learned Almighty Pleroma. At level 76, she can be a valuable choice to rely on in random battles. Fionn is an extremely strong and well-balanced physical fighter with specializations in fire and ice as well. His high stats, great skills, and efficient MP usage makes him very valuable as a frontline attacker throughout the rest of the game. While the endgame physically-aligned demons outpace him in raw strength, he can still hold his own against them quite well. Recruiting him is as simple as beating him in a battle in Taito, though his high level means you won't be able to get him right away. Odin is powercrept by Zeus in pretty much every way, but while Odin is recruitable at level 77, Zeus is only obtainable at 86 and requires completing Demeter's questline. Thus, Odin is more easily accessible, and carries much of the same kit as a physically-oriented attacker with specializations into lightning.

Notably, Khonsu is the only god among them who doesn't want to become the new Creator.

Power Copying: Essence Fusion permits the Nahobino or any of his demons to inherit the innate skills learned by a specific demon using their essence. The Nahobino can also change his elemental resistances to match that of the demon whose essence he's using. However, this means that almost every demon in the game has a weakness to give the player a reason to keep switching the resistance spread for the occasion. It's only right near the final dungeon when the player receives Essence of demons that don't have innate weaknesses.

Similar to Shin Megami Tensei Apocalypse, the Hama (Light) and Mudo (Dark) spells, which were previously Useless Useful Spells that either insta-killed a target or did nothing and outright didn't work against bosses, have been changed to now doing Light and Dark elemental damage. The Smirk system in Apocalypse doesn't exist, however, so the insta-kill effect is potentially triggered instead if the target is vulnerable to them. They also share in the (-barion) suffix naming scheme, albeit for third-tier spells.

New Work, Recycled Graphics: As is common in the series, the game reuses a lot of demon models from past games with a handful of new ones. Though it reverses the usual setup of being the source to taking the 3D models from a Spin-Off instead, Persona 5 and its contemporary releases Royal and Strikers in this case. (Although this is not the first time models from a Spin-Off were reused for a mainline title period, as the sprite-based Strange Journey, IV and IV Apocalypse reused sprites from the Spin-Off titles Devil Summoner and Soul Hackers.) Interestingly, the game reuses some menu layouts and UI elements from Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE.

But Thou Must!: In the cutscene leading up to the second fight with Lahmu, you will have two choices as to what takes priority- killing Lahmu or saving Sahori, whom Lahmu is possessing. No matter what you choose, the Nahobino will motion Tao to stay back as Lahmu absorbs Sahori and then attack him once he's done. The ultimate outcome- Lahmu is killed, but at the cost of Tao and Sahori's lives- is the same regardless of your choice. In "The Destined Leader," a Kurama Tengu demands that you hand Amanozako over to him. If you say yes, Amanozako will protest and the Kurama Tengu will take that as a refusal. Regardless of what you choose, the Kurama Tengu attacks you alongside Zaou-Gongen.

If you have trouble locating all the Miman, a Cironnup near the final segment of each area of Da'at will offer to mark out the location of every single Miman for that area in exchange for a single payment of Macca.

Bookends: Twofold in the True Neutral ending: When the protagonist first meets Aogami, he offers a hand so they can merge into a Nahobino. When the protagonist prepares to create his new world, Aogami offers his hand to his partner, this time to say goodbye. The game opens up with a quick shot introducing the main cast walking through the train station. Fittingly, the ending shows the same scene, though Sahori and Ichiro are also present and a gold-eyed protagonist watches his human counterpart from afar.

The Yamata-No-Orochi. It comes across as a regular mook in the southern areas of Taito, except it's a level 72 enemy and you can potentially encounter it when you're still in your 50s. The level scaling mechanics mean it can slaughter your entire party in a single turn while taking only Scratch Damage, making the serpent tougher than any regular boss you fought up to that point. Worse, up to four of them can appear in a single battle at once.

Ominous Save Prompt: After defeating Metatron at the top of the Temple of Eternity, Aogami chimes in and outright tells the player to double back and save, as opposed to the usual Boss Warning Siren. That's because the next thing that follows is several lengthy cutscenes and a dialogue choice that determines the ending the player receives.

Disc-One Nuke
 Shin Megami Tensei V (Video Game) / int_5b81ca8d
comment
Disc-One Nuke: There are a lot more demons with a unique move that will get outclassed later, but are fairly strong for the level you get them. In the first area for example, Mermaid's Stormcaller Song (3-6 weak Ice attacks) and Angel's Humble Blessing (slight HP restore for all party members) are easy to get skills that can carry you for the first few hours, simply because they are powerful, cost-efficient, and appear earlier than generic equivalent skills. If you manage to collect 60 Mimans, which can be done by getting all the Miman's in the first zone, and a few in the second zone, Gustave gives you the King Frost Essence. Not only is it one of the earliest Essences with an element it can absorb instead of null, but it has mid-tier Ice, physical, and support skills, making it a powerful skill for the Nahobino to either take skills from, or take the elemental affinities for. If you go out of your way for it, you can fuse Idun at roughly early mid-game. Idun has the unique skill Golden Apple, a Healing skill that combines the effects of Mediarama and Luster Candy. At the point in the game you can fuse her, Luster Candy is still very far off, and having a skill that buffs and heals the party simultaneously does wonders for slot efficiency and utility, making Idun extremely powerful as a supporter. There is an enhanced version of this skill called Light of Order which also cleanses debuffs, but you get it relatively late compared to Idun and its user is a Guest-Star Party Member so you don't have access to it for 60% of the game. A midgame quest leads you to face off against a berserk Amanozako, and if you beat this boss you get its essence. Bear in mind that the boss is supposed to be a late-game demon, so you get the likes of the severe-rank Zanbarion, Maziobarion, and even Mediarahan when you're about level 50. While the MP cost is high, they can easily save you skills for a long time. Cironnup can be recruited at level 27, and learns the skill Cautious Cheer at 30. Cautious Cheer boosts both the defense and agility of the whole party at a point where most demons can only use single-target buffs and debuffs.

In a twist, however, rather than being 3 separate maps, they're instead a toggle option to greatly increase the spawn rate of Mitama in the overworld, which normally spawn very rarely.

Wide-Open Sandbox: For the first time in a Megaten game the game's overworld is not only fully visible but also completely open and fully explorable. However, as a callback to previous games, exploring Tokyo (not Da'at) has the player explore the streets from an extreme bird's eye view while represented as a simple player piece. There's not much to do here though.

Balance Buff
 Shin Megami Tensei V (Video Game) / int_6e1e24a
comment
Balance Buff: SMTV is notable for introducing a number of unique changes to the combat system of the series. The most notable one is the introduction of the Essence system: upon either defeating a demon, recruiting it and raising it for long enough, or finding a chest in the field, the player is awarded an Essence of that particular demon containing all of its elemental affinities and skills. The player can then take this Essence and attach it to any demon they desire, which allows you to mix and match skills between any demon in the game. This is huge, since it allows you to tweak demons to perfection and drastically improve or alter their combat performance far beyond anything allowed in previous games. In addition, you can also attach these Essences to yourself to outright change what affinities you have or grant yourself new skills. This allows for some particularly powerful combinations of demons and skills, and careful use of this Essence system can produce demons that far outstrip even the Nahobino. Items have received a massive general buff through a number of changes made to how they work. First, the skill that allows demons to use items has been made into a Miracle, meaning once you get it, every demon you recruit has access to your inventory. This means that demons can spend items to heal, buff, and attack elemental weaknesses regardless of their skills, which is very useful for optimizing press turns. Secondly, items like elemental shards and elemental gems are a great way to keep up damage in a boss fight after mana reserves have dropped low, meaning demons who run out of steam in a battle can still meaningfully contribute to the fight. Lastly, the elemental dampener items (which are sold by Gustave) completely nullify one attack of a specific element for one turn, making it possible for demons to cover their own elemental weaknesses in battle and even nullify the Magatsuhi attacks that enemies and bosses can do. All of this adds up to items being pretty useful in combat and especially so in boss fights. Of course, the devs are aware of their great utility, and you have pretty low caps for mid-battle items so that you have to use them wisely.

Guide Dang It!
 Shin Megami Tensei V (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8
comment
Guide Dang It!: Getting one of the endings is a chore in itself, as you have to complete a set of requirements you might not pick up the first time around. To unlock the "Create a world for humanity alone" ending, you have to side with Nuwa and Yakumo and complete a series of sidequests, among of which involve the Fairy Village, Fionn, Amanozako, and Khonsu. The quests involving the latter are the most sensitive requirement as you have to spare Khonsu in order to progress that particular questline. Kill him, and you'll be locked out of the ending. Additionally, you must also kill the game's resident superboss Shiva. If Nuwa questions what the Nahobino intends to do when they reach the Empyrean Throne, you will have unlocked the fourth ending. If she doesn't show up, the "Destroy the Throne" ending will continue. On the plus side, you will not have to repeat those steps if you did all of them in a prior playthrough. You get several dialogue choices throughout the game that seem to affect your alignment (such as the demon you side with in the "pick a side" quests), but this impression feels subverted when the ending you get hinges on the Last-Second Ending Choice. However, if your earlier responses don't match with the ending you go with, you get locked out of a route-exclusive Miracle and sidequest. The latter, at least, can still be taken but at an astronomical Macca price. The DLC battle against the Demi-Fiend can easily become this. Unlike in Digital Devil Saga, the conditions for him to use Gaea Rage is actually avoidable this time around, and with some very careful playing it's entirely possible to completely prevent him from using this attack by exploiting his AI. However, none of that is written anywhere in the game, and you will actually have to take multiple trial-and-error attempts until you find out that specific condition where he doesn't use Gaea Rage to annihilate your whole party.

Killer Rabbit: An Abscess in Taito has a set of demons who were encountered at the beginning of the first area of the game — Slime, Pixie, Preta, and Onmoraki. At first, this is an odd combo to encounter at this point in the game... until you see that all four of them are at level 99. They also have two Press Turns each, making a total of eight. And unlike the Ishtar boss fight, you are forced to endure that amount of Press Turns per enemy phase. This will catch unsuspecting players expecting a simple fight off guard.

Since Tokyo was upheld by the Creator alone through a miracle, it fades slowly before someone takes the emptied throne.

Later-Installment Weirdness: Ironically, this is the first numbered game where Yoshitsune actually has its Signature Move, Hassou-Tobi, which was previously popularized by its appearances in SMT spinoffs and the Persona franchise. Just like in Apocalypse, Light and Dark skills deal actual damage to foes, although the instant-kill requirement will activate if it's hitting a weakness (of course, it still won't instantly kill bosses). This is to prevent them from being dead-weight in crucial encounters. This is the first numbered Shin Megami Tensei game to alter buff/debuff mechanics. While buffs/debuffs can still stack, V buffs and debuffs are now similar to the system popularized by Persona, with stat changes being temporary and stat-altering spells being split up into single-target and multi-target variations.

Boss in Mook Clothing: Each area in Da'at has a giant demon which is considerably more powerful than any other demons nearby. The earliest one you'll encounter is in Minato, which is Level 48 whereas all the others are under Level 20. The Yamata-No-Orochi. It comes across as a regular mook in the southern areas of Taito, except it's a level 72 enemy and you can potentially encounter it when you're still in your 50s. The level scaling mechanics mean it can slaughter your entire party in a single turn while taking only Scratch Damage, making the serpent tougher than any regular boss you fought up to that point. Worse, up to four of them can appear in a single battle at once.

She has a powerful heal spell that is medium level in power, but also cancels any debuffs as well as raise all stats one tier. Aside from that, she has multiple powerful light spells and Megidola. She is a godsend early in the final area when you will likely be weaker than most enemies there, and continues to be useful all the way up until when she leaves you, right before the final boss.

Humanity's Wake
 Shin Megami Tensei V (Video Game) / int_82464731
comment
Humanity's Wake: All of humanity as it's known is effectively dead and gone in the Netherworld Tokyo. The calamity that destroyed humanity, a "war in heaven," broke out between the forces of Law and Chaos eighteen years ago and hasn't left a single survivor outside of the illusionary Tokyo you come from. This is especially jarring, as no matter how bad the apocalypse was, there was always humans to be found. This becomes a plot-point as God's dying act is to perform a "miracle" that creates a false Tokyo that the protagonists hail from as a wholesale, with it being left ambiguous whether it was out of good-will or just to have a readily-accessible supply of Magatsuhi.

Exactly What It Says on the Tin: In Japanese and Chinese, the protagonist's demon race after fusing with the mysterious fallen god is �一神 (for "fused god"). In English the race is simply "Nahobino" for UI localization reasons.

Your Size May Vary: While many of the demons are shown as being massive in the overworld, many of the larger ones shrink down when they are on your side and in battle. For example, King Frost as an NPC is large enough where Nahobino only reaches halfway to his padlock, but when he is on your side, Nahobino reaches up to his collar.

Last Disc Magic: As you enter and explore the final two dungeons, the game starts handing you the Essences of extremely high-level demons that you are likely unable to access barring excessive grinding. These grant you their high-tier skills without needing to fuse and grind them, getting you set for the final challenges of the game. Metatron's Essence, obtained at the top floor of the Temple of Eternity, stands out as an Essence with no elemental weakness.

Similar to Arioch, Camael has not been seen in mainline SMT since Shin Megami Tensei II. For reference, his last appearance was in Raidou Kuzunoha vs. King Abaddon, which was released in 2008.

Artificial Stupidity: The enemy AI tends to make a number of mistakes for reasons not quite clear. Bosses can often use attacks that you No-Sell, or become stuck in patterns due to their skill set. In particular, soloing some enemies and bosses can result in the AI unintentionally killing themselves, due to their patterns dictating what they are supposed to do, such as Odin being stuck in a loop where he will kill himself if you have have Reflect Physical skills due to how AI handles your party having just one character.

Overrated and Underleveled
 Shin Megami Tensei V (Video Game) / int_9b8e2257
comment
Overrated and Underleveled: Some of the Special Fusions in this game fizzle out pretty quickly after obtaining them. For instance, Surt comes at level 62, and is a fire-focused demon with high magic and strength... only for there to be an easily-attainable, nearly straight improvement alternative to him in Fionn, who joins your party after you defeat him in Taito (expected level 66). Fionn hits harder, has a better spread of affinities and resistances, specializes in fire and ice, and has an extremely hard-hitting Unique skill, making Surt somewhat redundant once you obtain him. Some Demons automatically join your party after or during certain quests. These Demons start out at their base level with no skill or stat inheritance, and are likely significantly weaker than they would be if you made them via fusion. Fortunately the ability to fuse them is unlocked at the same time, but this often means the "free" version is quickly discarded in favour of a fused one. Hayataro is entrusted to you and unlocked for fusion after you embark on the Bethel route. However, at this point you're around level 75, but Hayataro is merely level 40 with skills that would be powerful for him but are long outclassed at this point.

This is also the first game to portray his perceived "True Form", who serves as the Final Boss for most routes.

Foreshadowing: When Ichiro and the hero first enter Da'at, Aogami reacts to the hero even though Ichiro entered his range first, hinting that Aogami's looking for him in particular. The game hints constantly at Aogami's true identity as Susano-o: One of the very first allies you meet in this game is Amanozako, Susano-o's "daughter" in Japanese myth, who also has the same blue-colored hair as her "father" in this incarnation. Your first boss fight after fusing with Aogami is against the multi-headed dragon Hydra, recreating one of Susano-o's most famous myths; defeating the multi-headed serpent Yamata no Orochi(who is also a demon in this game). Many of your unique skills, including summoning a tsunami, creating a tornado, conjuring a massive magic blade, bringing down a bolt of lightning, and so on, are often associated with traditional symbols of Susano-o, as he is the Japanese god of the seas and storms who wields a legendary sword. After defeating Arioch, a Bethel Agent will mention how similar Aogami and Koshimizu are. This is right before Koshimizu reveals he is actually Tsukuyomi, which signifies a connection. Crossed with Interface Spoiler, unlike other Shin Megami Tensei games, none of the Amatsu are available or even appear in this game. Not only are Aogami and Koshimizu actually the Amatsu Susano-O and Tsukuyomi (and you can't recruit the latter), most of the Amatsu were even revealed to have been wiped out in Armageddon. If spoken to at school, Miyazu will tell of a dream in which she meets a prince of a foreign country. Later on, in the Fairy Village, Miyazu will mention how she befriended Isis, who she says resembles foreign royalty. The fact that she describes Isis the same way as the prince of her dreams hints at her connection to Khonsu, another Egyptian god.

Route Boss: Several sidequests follow a formula: two demons are opposing each other, and each independently asks you to take out their opponent. In every case, you can only fight one of the two, while the demon you didn't fight joins you as a reward for helping them. In the final dungeon, the two leaders of the factions you didn't side with will fight you, while the leader of the faction you did side with is skipped. Additionally, only the hidden Neutral path gets to fight the Final Boss Lucifer in his full three forms; he's limited to a single lower-level form in the Law and Chaos paths, and the normal Neutral path skips him entirely.

Infinity +1 Sword: The Demi-fiend essence. Only available after beating him in a fight, and boy howdy is it a Bragging Rights Reward. Using it allows you to either add a number of powerful physical-damage skills that can only be used on the Nahobino, or null all elements. Zeus counts as one, as an incredibly strong physical attacker with lightning specializations. He has sky high Strength and Agility, has three very powerful unique skills, and natively learns Impaler's Animus. He's arguably one of the best physical attackers in the game just based off his stats and the skills he knows, so tweaking him further with Essences can make him into a total wrecking ball. Shiva, of course. While absurdly strong as a Superboss, Shiva retains much of his strength as a summonable demon. Amazingly high stats, nulls the majority of elements (and is only weak to one), natively learns Boon Boost EX and High Almightly Pleroma, and retains his signature Tandava attack. As an aoe nuker, Shiva is peerless.

comment
In the final dungeon, the two leaders of the factions you didn't side with will fight you, while the leader of the faction you did side with is skipped. Additionally, only the hidden Neutral path gets to fight the Final Boss Lucifer in his full three forms; he's limited to a single lower-level form in the Law and Chaos paths, and the normal Neutral path skips him entirely.

Religious and Mythological Theme Naming: The small imp-like demons in the first three trailers are "Daemon", the Ancient Greek word for minor spirits. The demon-infested alternate Tokyo is called Da'at, the central state of unity of the Sefirot in Kabbalah. The protagonist's Half-Human Hybrid form is called the Nahobino, a play on Nahobi-No-Kami (直毘神), Shinto deities of purification that restore the world after a catastrophe.

Convection, Schmonvection: Zigzagged in the Chiyoda arc. As the forces of Law ready themselves against Surt in his introductory cutscene, they burst into flames before getting within spitting distance of the fire giant due to how much heat he's putting out. Because of this, the Nahobino has to find an amulet that will let him get close enough to take out Surt without burning up. In the overworld, however, two Powers can be seen standing right outside a wall of flame Surt created with no ill effects.

Dungeon Bypass
 Shin Megami Tensei V (Video Game) / int_b4d6aa7d
comment
Dungeon Bypass: The final dungeon is a winding maze full of enemies that you are generally expected to try to avoid rather than fight. And there are multiple segments where the demons themselves serve as walls of sorts, theoretically forcing you to go in different directions than you'd perhaps want to go. However, all of these gauntlets and mazes can be fully ignored if you use repulse bells. When used, all enemies will completely ignore you until the next new moon. With about 3-4 bells, you can bypass the entire dungeon rather quickly.

Trapped in Another World: Subverted. The protagonist was seemingly drawn from ordinary Tokyo to another, desolate version of Tokyo, but that is not an alternate world but the real Tokyo, and it's been destroyed 18 years ago. It just looks normal due to a miracle from the Creator, but even that doesn't hold long.

Top God
 Shin Megami Tensei V (Video Game) / int_b61c6d0c
comment
The hidden ending: The fourth ending that can be achieved by completing certain sidequests and picking the "Destroy The Throne" ending. After defeating Abdiel, Nuwa reappears to reveal that her and Yakumo's ultimate goal wasn't just to destroy the Throne. Instead, they sought to use its power to create a new world free from demons and gods alike. With this option now in mind, The Nahobino decides to claim his right as Ruler and sit on the Throne of Creation. As the new Top God, the Nahobino creates a new world mirroring that of the old but free from all gods and demons, including Aogami who passes away approving of the protagonist's decision. Every human character who died during the events of the game are now alive and well, living their normal lives to the fullest. However, the ending is one of the contradictions, as it can only be upheld by the great will of the Nahobino, who as the only Top God, has secured a position that the God of Law himself wished to be in. Thus as the Nahobino doesn't see himself as above his own laws, he must exist outside of this new world, instead letting a clone take his place who he observes from afar, possibly pondering of the life he could have had while he must maintain the paradox of a world without other gods and demons upheld by the will of a single Creator who cannot intervene.

Boss-Altering Consequence: Ishtar is empowered by 7 Magatsuhi channeling devices spread out across the region of Chiyoda, granting her a total of 8 Press Turns. For each device that is deactivated, her press turns are also reduced which of course means that she'll only have 1 Press Turn if you disable them all. Better still, if you shut off all 7 devices, it also prevents her from using Dreadful Gleam, a powerful Electric skill that pierces Electric resistances and may inflict Seal.

Continuing is Painful: There are no Auto Saves so the game highly advises to save frequently, especially if you plan to battle a challenging opponent. A Game Over will send you straight to the title screen and any progress that hasn't been saved will be lost. However, like the fourth game with Burroughs and Dagda, Aogami will inform you of a powerful presence ahead (ie: you're about to walk into a boss) allowing you to backpedal and save if you haven't.

 Shin Megami Tensei V (Video Game) / int_c5594984
comment
Tokyo Is the Center of the Universe: As is series tradition, the final battle between Law and Chaos apparently took place right next to the Tokyo Tower, and the game proper takes place in the ruins of Tokyo. However, it becomes a bit odd since this installment shows that Bethel has branches all around the world, so Tokyo isn't the only city left as is often implied in SMT games. So it's a bit odd that the final battle between Abrahamic deities took place in a country with a very low population of Christians, Jews, or other Abrahamic faiths. On top of that, apparently all of the humans with the Knowledge of major gods (Zeus, Odin, Abdiel, etc) embedded in their souls all happen to be Japanese as well.

Artemis herself would be right at home on said manga. The hexagon card item has refernces noting a hexagon on the back and mentioning it was at the hight of popularity when the world went to ruin which, based on Nocturn would be a specific card game that overtook a manga's story and spread worldwide.

Metal Slime: Mitamas return from the previous games as the demons that grant tons of rewards, except this time, they're significantly much more annoying to take down. They nullify all damage, resist Almighty, and only have one weakness that is completely random, which means you either land that weakness or they're gone. Rather than being exclusive to a DLC map however, they can spawn rarely in the overworld, and a paid DLC can considerably increase their spawn rate at a toggle, so you aren't forced to use it.

Lighter and Softer: Relative to the rest of the series. This time around, the Law faction is sincere in their desire to bring peace and prosperity rather than just keep the previous God in power. The Chaos faction wants the world to return to the way it was, just with a pluralistic choice of god to follow. And the neutral faction is actively trying to escape the Vicious Cycle their path usually is doomed to. Which is a stark contrast to the previous games (especially in IV and Apocalypse where Law and Chaos forces are In-Universe flanderized caricatures) where most sides tend to have ill designs for the human race or just returns things to a status quo that led to apocalypse in the first place.

Developer's Foresight: If you have certain demons in your party, they will jump in to initiate a special conversation with certain other demons. In the "Goddess in Training DLC" after you defeat Artemis, Zeus' voice can be heard from the sky and encourages his daughter to do better and learn from the Nahobino's example. If you have Zeus in your party, he will appear himself and tell the Nahobino to look after her after giving her advice.

Schmuck Bait: Early in the game you can come across a chest tucked away in the corner of the map. Grabbing it triggers up to five Slime demons to drop down and ambush you. You can see them standing by when you do this, making it obvious what will happen if you go for it. The ponds in Ueno Park have valuables like chests and even a demon statue. Naturally, if you approach them, you'll be ambushed by Sui-Ki which were invisible up to that point.

The Tokyo Tower Hydra, the first boss, is the part where the training wheels come off. Its attacks hit like a tank, most demons under level 18 are weak to fire (which Hydra specializes in alongside poison), and its attacks can hit multiple times and targets. You either learn to make use of multiple mechanics like guard, the magatsuhi gauge, elemental weaknesses and resistances, and press turns, or you die painfully.

Getting one of the endings is a chore in itself, as you have to complete a set of requirements you might not pick up the first time around. To unlock the "Create a world for humanity alone" ending, you have to side with Nuwa and Yakumo and complete a series of sidequests, among of which involve the Fairy Village, Fionn, Amanozako, and Khonsu. The quests involving the latter are the most sensitive requirement as you have to spare Khonsu in order to progress that particular questline. Kill him, and you'll be locked out of the ending. Additionally, you must also kill the game's resident superboss Shiva. If Nuwa questions what the Nahobino intends to do when they reach the Empyrean Throne, you will have unlocked the fourth ending. If she doesn't show up, the "Destroy the Throne" ending will continue. On the plus side, you will not have to repeat those steps if you did all of them in a prior playthrough.

As is common in the series, the game reuses a lot of demon models from past games with a handful of new ones. Though it reverses the usual setup of being the source to taking the 3D models from a Spin-Off instead, Persona 5 and its contemporary releases Royal and Strikers in this case. (Although this is not the first time models from a Spin-Off were reused for a mainline title period, as the sprite-based Strange Journey, IV and IV Apocalypse reused sprites from the Spin-Off titles Devil Summoner and Soul Hackers.)

Nerf: When the protagonist levels up, you only have one point to distribute yourself and the other three are distributed randomly, preventing you from allocating most of your points to one stat and raising it ludicrously high like you could in past instalments. Charge and Concentrate no longer multiply damage by 2.5, the multiplier being closer to double instead. This makes them more for situations where you need a quick burst of damage in a single turn, rather than your best source of damage at all times. Elements were formerly incredibly valuable for fusion, as they instantly shift a Demon up or down a "tier" within its Race. While they still work this way, they are now vastly more expensive than other Demons when summoned from the Compendium, making them less useful until very late in the game.

Wolfpack Boss: Several Abscess fights pit you against a group of different demons, each with their own moveset and elemental affinities all supporting each other to pressure your team. The Kunitsukami in Chiyoda — Okuninushi, Sukuna-Hikona, Take-Minakata, and Ouyamatsumi — are all fought at once after you complete the sidequest to defeat Ouyamatsumi. Uriel, Gabriel, and Raphael are also fought together in a sidequest near the end of the game, as a prerequisite to fighting Michael.

There Can Be Only One: There can only be one on the throne of the Creator, and only one whose will can remake the world. Even should you choose to align with Ichiro and Abdiel, Yuzuru and Tsukuyomi, or Shohei and Nuwa, one of the other two pairs will kill your allies while you are forced to take the others out, leaving only you to implement a vision for a new world.

Combination Attack: Vengeance introduces new Magatsuhi skills that allow certain demons to attack together to devastating effect. This includes the mentor and student pair of Scáthach and Cú Chulainn with Raging Whirlwind, and King Frost, Jack Frost, and Black Frost come together to perform Frost Storm.

Hobbes Was Right: Either you have a supreme ruler of the universe who has the power to control or banish other gods and demons, or those gods and demons will tear the world apart in their struggle for power. Humans might be able to win against The Legions of Hell without God, but it's a risky bet.

Downloadable Content: There are seven in total; three that increase the appearance of the Mitama that drop EXP and Glory boost items, and four that pit you against Mephisto, Cleopatra, Artemis, the Fiends, and the Demi-fiend. Vengeance includes all of the previous DLC while introducing two more DLC quests that star Dagda (from Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse) and Konohana Sakuya respectively.

comment
Mercy Kill: The Nahobino, following his death at Lahmu's hands and his resurrection by Tao, does this to Sahori both to put her out of her misery and kill Lahmu for good. Two sidequests have you doing this to specific demons — a Succubus requests you put down her old friend Kumbhanda after he lost his sanity, and Isis requests that you bring her the head of her son, Horus, for the same reason.

Wake-Up Call Boss
 Shin Megami Tensei V (Video Game) / int_f4a0408f
comment
Wake-Up Call Boss: The Tokyo Tower Hydra, the first boss, is the part where the training wheels come off. Its attacks hit like a tank, most demons under level 18 are weak to fire (which Hydra specializes in alongside poison), and its attacks can hit multiple times and targets. You either learn to make use of multiple mechanics like guard, the magatsuhi gauge, elemental weaknesses and resistances, and press turns, or you die painfully. The first encounter with Nuwa at the Diet Building makes sure the player has learned how to use Essence Fusion to change the Nahobino's resistances. She has a +7 affinity with Force and several powerful Force attacks, which the protagonist is weak to by default. Remove this weakness and the fight will be much more manageable.

Great Offscreen War: A war that began well before the events from 18 years ago that kickstarted the main plot of the game. Beginning when Lucifer gave humanity the Knowledge taken from former gods, demons and the God of Law battled for countless years. Things came to a head when during a Conception Lucifer brought the war to an end and informed all in attendance that God Is Dead.

Weird Moon
 Shin Megami Tensei V (Video Game) / int_fa686f29
comment
Weird Moon: Despite it not really being visible, especially in the starting area, the moon is still a present element of the ruined world and affects demons differently depending on the cycle, going through cycles in quick secession. Primarily it affects the ability to talk to them; some demons will go into a Despair Event Horizon when the moon is essentially gone and refuse to talk, while at full moons will be overly chatting and easier to talk to. Other times, the demons will be Drunk with Power on a full moon and cannot hold conversation, and are calmer on a new moon.

Last-Second Ending Choice: Downplayed in regards to the normal routes as the alignment lock happens right before entering The Very Definitely Final Dungeon and you can choose all three choices regardless of your prior actions, albeit characters will have different reactions based on if your past alignment actions actually match your choice or not. Played straight in the hidden ending as right after the Tsukuyomi fight, you can choose to either Destroy the Throne like what would normally happen, or you can choose to instead Create a world for humanity alone.

Hopeless Boss Fight
 Shin Megami Tensei V (Video Game) / int_fc07d409
comment
Hopeless Boss Fight: If you try to engage Ishtar as soon as her fight becomes available, she will have eight Press Turns per enemy phase, meaning that she can quite easily blitz through your entire party. However, a Decarabia you meet before her will tell you that she has devices set up to flow Magatsuhi into her to make her that strong, and destroying them will weaken her to the point that she will only have one Press Turn if you destroy all of them. Subverted though in that she IS defeatable even at max power, you will just need a very specific plan of attack to do so and you gain nothing extra for doing so, as the game assumes you will at least partially cripple her power.
