Revision 1

Film - MANISH is a Story Boss encounter in Neverness to Everness. Film - MANISH is weak to Cosmos damage. 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 The mission of film rolls is to capture those shining moments, but shining often means fleeting, leaving the outdated film roll behind in time.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.

Quick Facts

Strategy and Mechanics

Mechanics

• 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.

Tips

• Take out the copies of Sakiri to expose Film - MANISH.

General Combat Guidance

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.

Weakness and Resistances

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.
