Before going into Sumaru Castle, I played for awhile at Casino, While playing few rounds at Slot Machine #6 as usual, suddenly all the "slots" stopped at "stars"!!! SUGOI!!! *__* I have just won 50000 coins!!!! The coins kept counting (can't skip), so I just left game standing there for few minutes for it to stop coutning ^^;; First of all, I didn't spread the rumor about Slot Machine...so I thought my luck would be at BlackJack~~ I was very surprise! Now plus my original 20000 coins that I've played so hard from BlackJack during the whole game...I finally have enough coins for BOTH Lucifer and Brahma~~~ *_*

Stopping by Time City, Katsuya would ask Maya if she found he and his brother alike. Answer "YES" Katsuya would be very happy (his smiling face really... *_* compare to that bitter Tatsuya who's always in angst and depress...argh~~ I'll choose Katsuya if I'm Maya!)

Inside Sumaru Castle, the first room is the Seven North Star Room where there're 8 portals of light. The top one leaded to boss, and required a password to open the door. The other 7 portals leads to rooms that contained password puzzles.

Here're the keywords from each floors (in hirigana):
1F " そ (SO) "
3F " ん (N) "
4F " じ (SHI) "
5F-1 " お (O)"
5F-2 " う (U)"
5F-3 " ょ (yo)"
7F " う (U)"

So, the Password is "ソンジョウオウ "

Don't forget to visit Princess Mahime and Tatnojin at 3F and 7F, respectively (after you spread rumors about them, see previous diary). Tatnojin will summon Junoske along if you fill up the money box of Junoske's shrine. The three are now summonable at Velvet Room. Sadly I'm lacking 1 FOOL card (you need total 4 cards), I wasn't able to summon Junoske Y__Y Also even after I equipped Mahime when visiting Tatnojin, there were NO conversation....why not!? -___-;;;

Once you opened the locked door, the room's floor were full of fallen traps. My tips is that "walk & turn" on the floors that have circle patterns.

I bumped into Rare demon "Randa" at 8F (just before going into the boss room). After defeating her you'll get the material card "Masquerade Mask". Now she's summonable at Velvet room.

Inside "Utena's Room", The party confronted Tatsou,his ceremonies were finished at last and summon the dragons that destory the world (CG movies). He then turned into a monsters..

Battle with Tatsou (demonized):
He's elemental Dark, so besure NOT to equip Persona that's weak to darkness, or else when he used deadly spells that can kill the member at one shot. Holy magic would hurt him a great deal, such as "Pierrot Screaming" (FORTUNE Skuld) & "Holy + Sword" combo.

After the battle, notice the boss battle theme was still ongoing, indicating boss battle wasn't over yet. The Emperor has arised! He sucked up the remaining of Tatsou and awaken as a huge ugly monster.

Battle with Emperor:
First of all, if you have rank 8 Tatnojin, Mahime & Junoske, use their combo "TenChuSa". It can kill the Emperor in ONE single time! (damage 8000)!!! However for those who don't (like me...damn 1 FOOL card~~ >__<)...
Let's fight the battle in the hard way. I have at least two person doing "Cure-all" every round. First use "Rakagasha + Generous Prayer" combo to defense up everyone at once, also "Makagasha + Generous Prayer" combo to up everyone's magic attack. His element was also dark, holy magic worked best on him. I use "Light Smasher" (Holy + Sword), Katsuya's "Hyperion"'s hidden spell Hamaon + Tatsuya's Tatnojin's "OneLetterSlash," can do 1200+ damage on him. At some point, the Emperor will use "Black Baptism" that disable all usage of cure/revive/support type of magic. Equipping Persona that can "reflect magic attack" (MAGICIAN AbenoSeimei, Lv.82 HIEROPHANT Brahma, even Altemis) would make the battle a HELL lot easier (at least survive most of his attack, but beward of his "corpse flesh sprinkle", which was a huge damage physical attack...-___-).

After defeating the emperor (no EXP point no MONEY, what the HECK? >__<), CG movies of how the dragons were destory and Sumaru City were elevate above to some dimension...

The party were transfered to another dimention, called "Monade Mandara". Nyarlathotep finally appears! This time he appeared in the from of Tatsuya in Seventh Sister Uniform (somehow in my mind Nyarlathotep should be in the form of Jun's father ...dunno why, that fit him so well ^^;;). Including Philmon, we now have 3 person with the exact same face ^^;;.

Nyarlathotep explained that "anger", "ignorance" & "bigotry" were three most poisonous nature of humankind. And they were sources of his life & power. He decided to play a game with Tatsuya & co. He captured Eikichi, Lisa and Jun. Whether their memories will return depends on your (Maya)'s choice... Nyarlathotep left with claims that he enjoyed watching Tatsuya's hopless's face.
