Film - MANISH

Corrected commission variants and linked walkthroughs
Film - MANISH appears in Prologue II and in the Brand Anniversary common and High-Risk commissions. It is weak to Cosmos.
An Object Anomaly that battles by projecting items. The mission of film rolls is to capture those shining moments, but shining often means fleeting, leaving the outdated film roll behind in time. Waiting in a dusty darkroom with a dim red light, they spin and weave, trying to record the past, while also creating the future.

Several intertwined film rolls can project recorded items into reality. They fear bright light. Under strong illumination, the projected items vanish and the source becomes weakened.
When Film - MANISH is Broken, Ultimates are ready. Use them.
Take out the copies of Sakiri to expose Film - MANISH and force the boss out of its projection cycle.
The team picks below are aligned to the Cosmos weakness. Pulling any of these into the active rotation is the highest single-stat increase you can apply to Film - MANISH's clear time.

Fill the boss's break meter with consistent attacks and reward-heavy defensive inputs. Successful parries and dodges contribute significantly more to the break bar than a hit, and a clean parry also fills the Esper Cycle Meter instantly. Save ultimates and heaviest skills for the stagger window that follows a full break. Film - MANISH takes greatly increased damage while staggered, so burst output during this phase largely determines whether the encounter clears quickly. Build the team around the Cosmos weakness. Characters aligned with Cosmos will see the largest damage multiplier, and team compositions that can enable elemental reactions on top of that attribute will apply additional pressure to the break bar between stagger windows.
The table below lists the boss's raw resistance value for each of the six elements. A lower number marks the element the boss is most vulnerable to. For Film - MANISH, that element is Cosmos.

The table below lists Film - MANISH's HP, attack, and defense at each of the encounter's difficulty levels. Higher levels yield better drop rates and progression materials at the cost of a tougher fight.

2 | 52,341 | 154 | 780 |

Film - MANISH is a story-tied object Anomaly. Damage payoff is gated behind defeating its projected Sakiri copies first, so AoE-leaning Cosmos units like Chiz clear the add wave faster than a single-target damage dealer would.

Eliminate copies of Sakiri the Film projects to expose the main boss. When Film MANISH enters a Broken state, its damage taken spikes; save Ultimate attacks for that window for the cleanest clear.

Enter the side door inside the tunnel west of Unheard Shores' Wertheimer Tower. Descend the stairs and approach Film - MANISH in the dark curtained hall. Avoid the frontal laser's prediction lines, since a hit also slows you, and destroy the incoming projected objects with attacks. This encounter is separate from its Prologue II appearance. Clear the common commission and reach Hunter Level 24 to open its High-Risk version.
High-Risk Brand Anniversary uses enemy levels 43, 53, 63, 73, 83 and 88. Each tier lists a first-clear reward of 30 Annulith, 3,600 Fons and 30 Peril Hunt Medals. The common clear separately lists 200 Hunter EXP, 30 Annulith, 5,000 Beetle Coins, 10,000 Fons, 20 U-00NE, four Anomaly Material Selection Boxes I and 40 Silver Carrota.
