lemme list some facts about some characters played by the girls based on the research i'm always doing because i'm that useless:

  • the phantom erik was deformed from birth, he taught himself in the arts of the circus and he asked the new managers of the opera for 20,000 francs and box 5 all to himself.

  • he actually killed one guy

  • robin hood had a lover called maid marian without whom he legit snapped at his sherwood homies bc he missed her. junnana is canon.

  • da vinci was born out of wedlock

  • arthur (played by karen) had a wife, guinevere, who cheated on him with lancelot (played by mahiru). if hikari plays guinevere im going to lose my head.

  • athos was supposed to be a hungover mess because of his unwanted marriage

  • it's called the three musketeers because d'artagnan is a noob

  • aramis was a playboy who wanted to be a member of the clergy despite switching from women to church all the time

  • sherlock holmes hated women, esp irene adler. watson has no idea why, but speculates it's because he was bested by her.

  • watson stopped working with holmes after he was married, then went back to him after his wife died. sad.

  • the original rapunzel is dark af as we all know

  • amaterasu's counterpart was called tsukiyomi, god of the moon

  • alexander dumas, author of the three musketeers, also wrote count monte cristo

  • the cheshire cat could disappear with just its grin visible as we've seen in the movie

  • tamamo-no-mae caused the downfall of two chinese dynasties, and latched onto emperor toba, killed him, then his grandson or son i dont rmbr, smth smth konoe, ultimately leading to the genpei war, the end of the heian period in japan, and starting the shogunate.

  • christine caved in to love erik bc she gave in to the humanness of feeling attracted to the dark, morbid, the negative. i can explain more in the comments if u want.

  • diaochan is regarded as one of the four most beautiful women of china, ranking into no.2. she destroyed lu bu and his dad by playing the jealousy game, leading to lu bu forging a hatred against his dad. this happened during the three kingdoms period.

  • don quixote was the first novel to introduce the main hero-sidekick duo trope and from then on it became the rage and as we can see has continued on to this day.

  • heracles was the counterpart of hercules

  • there are events in the phantom of the opera that actually happened in the palais garnier building, like the infamous fall of the chandelier. it's a true event. u can see it in nana's card.

  • leroux, the author, was originally going to be a lawyer, but wrote this book instead. and he argued till his deathbed that the phantom was real. it was originally written in french btw. thats why the english version seems so dull and out of flavor. either because leroux just wrote it like that, or the translations were done roughly.

  • tamamo no mae is regarded as no.2 of the three most dangerous yokai of japan, no.1 being emperor sutoku, no.3 being the drunken demon.

update:

  • they did shuten doji, the drunken demon, for fumi! more in the comments if u wanna know!

  • its unconfirmed but its thought that miyamoto musashi's (by nana) name was taken from musashibo benkei (by tamao), the guy under yoshitsune minamoto (by yuyuko)!

btw please refer to the comments for corrections!

oh, and ill keep adding to this list when i know some more!

jokes aside, tell me anything i got wrong, missed, or tell me some interesting facts of ur own that u know abt any of these chars! uwu

when u realize junna's weapon, PRESUMABLY a long bow (i have no knowledge of weapons, tell me if im wrong) can kill u from 6ft away. it was used by the english in the hundred years' war against the french and brought successes such as at the battles of crecy, agincourt and poitiers. it required rigorous training tho, to use efficiently. meanwhile yachiyo's crossbow is so easy to use it can be used by anybody, and isnt as deadly as the longbow. it was used during the hundred years war too, but goes as far as ancient china!

ps: rui's sword is one that was supposed to exceed 100cm at times, and warriors with these swords had helpers to carry just the sword at times.

  How to beat Tales of Onikurenai last boss in one go
     without Onikage Rui or even YJ Rui 


so...

How to beat Tales of Onikurenai last boss in one go

[without Onikage Rui or even YJ Rui]

so hey everyone~
only three day remaining for this event, but better later than never, I guess. at the beginning I thought I don't have a chance to beat this tough boss in one go since I don't even have YJ Rui for good tanking, but eventually I found the trick. our main keys will be some 4* that you can get via the ads gacha - Goddess Akira and Musketeer Hikari. Pirate Shizuha will be very helpful, but I think she can be replaced by other middle-row tanks (I hope, though).

The main idea is to create THREE lines of defense before the boss reaches the back row - one is regular tank (we'll use Christmas Karen), one semi-tank semi-damage-dealer (Musketeer Hikari), and one middle-row tank (Pirate Shizuha). we can do it since the boss targets only one stage girl at time, except when climaxing. its climax hit only once, so it's very easy to dodge with an evasion buff, and that's why Musketeer Hikari does great as a second tank, even though she is in the first row.

As for damaging and ACTs prioritizing, we should aim to reach climax with Hikari before the boss beats her, and after that we STOP USING HER. she is here only for tanking and climaxing, not for regular damage dealing.
For main damage dealing, we'll use Akira and Fumi equally, and aim to reach their climaxes by the time the boss beat the middle-row tank. that means that even when the boss climaxes and generates the anti-snow buff - don't mind it. you still attack with them in order to build brilliance. even with the snow-resist buff, they will do more or less the same damage as Hikari anyways.
And yes, this is very important - we WON'T CLIMAX WITH AKIRA/GUEST ONIKAGE RIGHT AWAY! if we do, we'll lose the freezing effect that can be inflicted only once in this battle. it's essential to keep this effect to the end in order to prevent the climax against the back row, and making the most of Akira's climax.
Generally, the boss SHOULD climax three times before we freeze it - one time against every one of the three first tanks. when it reaches the back-row and is ready to climax - that's when we use guest Onikage Rui's climax in order to freeze it, then Akira's and Fumi's. that way we save Fumi from the last climax damage and let her finish it off the next turn.

I know it's sound a bit complicated. well, this battle indeed requires more focus and being careful than usual... I hope the video will make it more clear:

Example Video

Keys:

  • Image Goddess Akira + 15% Effective Element memoir.
    One of your two main damage dealers. we we'll prioritize her and Fumi's ACTs for the most of the battle, especially her 2AP one. her 3AP act deals the same amount of damage as her 2AP, and its only adventages are the meaningless perfect aim buff, and the more brilliance. keep that in mind.
    We'll aim for building her and Fumi's brilliance for the most of the battle, and release the climaxes on the right time - when the boss beats the middle-row tank and is ready to climax against the back-row.
    As for her climax - since we're gonna use Onikage's for freezing, the freezing effect of her climax won't be exploited. nevertheless, her climax is still great since it hits only once. frozen enemy will recieve more damage on the hit that breaks their freeze status, and since Akira's climax hits once, it'll be much more effective than using Onikage's three hits climax after Akira's freezing.
    Edit: There is an alternative for her in case you don't have her - Sun Nation Futaba. since we don't rely on Akira's freezing effect, we can replace her with SN Futaba and still get the more or less the same damage dealing, since Futaba comes with an anti-beast auto skill and one-hit climax too.
  • image Benikage Fumi + Damage Buffing memoir.
    Our event 3* that come with very nice kit: good damage, great 3AP act, great climax, and the usual event damage buff. she will be our second main damage dealer.
    Her 3AP is amazing. it deals almost as her 2AP, but it attacks group (effective at the start of the battle, when those "diamonds" are still protecting the boss), and inflict Normal Defense DOWN debuff which is just GREAT for the collective damage dealing of this battle. be sure that the boss have this debuff by the time you release Onikage's and Akira's climaxes, it's very important!
    Like Akira, we'll prioritize her ACTs and build her brilliance during the battle, then release her climax on the right time.
  • g.image Musketeer Hikari + 40 Brilliance memoir
    She'll do both the roles of a tank and a damage dealer in this battle.
    Since this boss attack only once with its climax, she we'll easily avoid its first climax with her initial evasion, and can stall the boss even more with her evasion generating right before the boss is going to climax again. it's essential to climax with her ASAP since she won't hold for very long, and that's why the "Friends at the Aquarium" memoir will be very helpful.
    after climaxing, you can ignore her ACTs completely and prioritize Akira's and Fumi's, or just using her evasion generating 2AP if you don't recieve any other good ACTs.
  • image Christmas Karen | image Water Goddess Michiru + 2 Fortitudes Memoir.
    Our regular tank. they are here only to take damage and nothing more. don't use their ACTs unless you really don't have any other ACT to put (and no, don't try to reach climax with Michiru to freeze the boss. it's risky and not efficient at all).
    This is the place to say that if you have YJ Rui, you should use her as your tank. my friend has her and she is really the best tank you can use in this battle. the only adventage of Karen and Michiru is that everyone should have them (well, at least Michiru).
  • Image Pirate Queen Shizuha + 2 Evasions Memoir.
    Okay, this is somewhat tricky. the idea is to use you highest normal defense middle-row stage girl. it happens to be her in my case, and she's do great with her ability to generate evasions (even though you should use her 3AP very carefully). she is here for stalling the boss even more while the back-row attacks and builds brilliance. I hope that even if you don't have her, your highest NDEF middle-row stage girl will be suffice.
  • Guest: image Onikage Rui. for damage buff and right-timed freezing climax.
  • Note: all stage girls should be at least rank 7 and fully potential bloomed.

Well, that's it. I really haven't believed that this boss is doable in one go without a proper tank like YJ Rui, but I'm glad I found the way to do it with nothing more than ads gacha 4* girls, and I hope it'll be helpful for you too!
Good luck everyone! ^~^
