Film - MANISH Boss Counters
High Damage Output and AoE Attacks
Film - MANISH deals high overall damage and is known for its long-range attacks using thrown projectiles and extended film arms. Focus on dodging consistently to avoid taking unnecessary damage.
Cosmos Attacks Are Effective
Film - MANISH has a weakness to the Cosmos Attribute. Attacking with the matching Attribute helps reduce its Break gauge more efficiently, making the fight much easier to manage.
Cosmos Characters ListBest Team Comp for Film - MANISH
Against Film - MANISH's Cosmos Attribute weakness, a team featuring Esper Zero for versatility, Chiz for strong damage output, and Hotori for support is highly recommended. By using the Esper Cycle Blossom, you can continue dealing damage even while the boss is airborne.
Best Team Builds and CompositionsBlossom-Focused Team Comp
| DPS | Anima | Anima | Support |
|---|---|---|---|
 Esper Zero | Nanally | Jiuyuan | Hotori |
Film - MANISH will occasionally move to positions that are difficult to reach. By generating Vita Buds beforehand, you can continue dealing damage automatically during these phases. Since the boss is weak to Cosmos Esper Abilities, this team composition works especially well.
Film - MANISH Boss Fight Tips
Dodge-Focused Playstyle
Film - MANISH uses attacks with multiple hit zones and deals heavy damage. A single mistake can lead to multiple hits, so prioritize dodging throughout the fight to avoid getting knocked out.
Make Use of Ranged Attacks
Film - MANISH frequently stays airborne, creating many situations where melee attacks cannot connect. Bringing characters with ranged attacks lets you continue dealing damage consistently while it is in the air.
Watch the Boss's Altitude
When Film - MANISH rises higher into the air, it often follows up with attacks that can be Parried or powerful moves. Paying close attention to its altitude can help you anticipate its next action and gain an advantage during the fight.
Film - MANISH Attack Pattern Guide
Omnidirectional Shockwave
Film - MANISH slams its film arms into the ground and releases a shockwave in all directions. Since the red warning indicator matches the attack timing exactly, watch for the tell and time your Dodge accordingly.
Film Summon 1
Film - MANISH summons films on both sides, fires projectiles, and follows up with two sweeping attacks using its film arms. The attack comes slightly after the warning indicator, so avoid rushing your Dodge. Getting caught can result in heavy multi-hit damage from both the projectiles and sweep attacks.
Film Summon 2
Film - MANISH retreats before summoning five films lined up behind it and firing projectiles. The warning indicator is easy to read, making this attack fairly simple to avoid. Moving behind the summoned films completely avoids the attack's hitbox.
Instant Film Summon into Warp Throw
Film - MANISH instantly summons a film above the player and attacks. The strike comes almost immediately after the warning appears, so quick reactions are important. For the follow-up Warp Throw, dodging toward the boss makes it easier to trigger a Critical Riposte.
Instant Film Summon into Aerial Charge Spin Attack
After the overhead summon attack, Film - MANISH throws projectiles twice from the air before transitioning into a landing slam and spinning attack. Aside from the opening attack, there are no warning indicators, and the spin attack has a delayed timing, so stay alert and Dodge carefully.
Film Combo Attack
This combo chains together a charged attack, uppercut, spin attack, and Warp Throw. While the warning indicators make the sequence manageable once learned, the opening spin attack has multiple hitboxes. Even after successfully countering, be prepared to Dodge again to avoid the remaining hits.
Film Arm Barrage into Trail Explosion
Film - MANISH floats into the air and repeatedly stabs its film arms into the ground before detonating the trails they leave behind. Although there is no warning indicator, the ground markers clearly show where the explosions will occur. In most cases, simply moving is enough to avoid them, but if one appears directly beneath you, Dodge immediately.
Spin Charge
Film - MANISH spreads its film arms and spins toward you, creating an opportunity for a Parry Attack. Use the slight upward hop before the charge as your timing cue. If you miss the parry, repeatedly Dodge to avoid being trapped by the consecutive hits.
Leap Charge
Film - MANISH rises into the air behind the player before charging forward, creating another Parry Attack opportunity. The telegraph is easy to recognize, and the timing is straightforward, but since the boss remains airborne, keep an eye on your positioning to avoid missing your counterattack.
[HP 50% or Below] Time Stop Attack
Once Film - MANISH drops below 50% HP, it performs three waves of time-stop attacks after a charging animation. Only the third time-stop attack lacks a warning indicator. Even if you are caught by the time-stop effect, you can still move just before the attack lands, so repeatedly Dodge to avoid the damage. The final sequence ends with two consecutive attacks, so stay ready until the pattern fully ends.
