PDP Shard of Dreams Guide Part 33: Makai

Part 32 can be found here.

Upon entering Makai, head down the steps, and head right. Head up into the fountain area, and then left when you can. There's a Devil Shopkeeper here who sells healing items (red roof). Just up past her is some grass where you can capture Alice, Louise, Sara, Yumeko, and Shinki.

Head up past the grass, and then right. There's another Devil Shopkeeper (blue roof) here that sells Skill Cards 101 through 115, which are the Sign skills. Head up past her and then go left. You'll see Louise sitting by a table with an Akyuu Box. Louise will heal you when you talk to her, and the Akyuu Box is there for your convenience. Feel free to leave and do anything you need to do before returning, because this is your last chance before the post-game.

Get your best Puppets ready, and head up the steps/bridge near Louise. Head through the winding path and enter Pandaemonium and prepare yourself to face the Makai 4.

Please be aware that unlike in the original game, in this one you cannot exit via Gap Map.

Speak with the woman at the counter to begin when you are ready.

Enter the first room, where you will face Yuki. Yuki's Puppets are as follows:

Level 58 Speed Rin
Level 59 Speed Clownpiece
Level 58 Speed Futo
Level 62 Speed Yuki
Level 59 Speed Marisa

I can't say for absolute certain, but I believe she will always immediately swap Clownpiece out for Futo so Futo can lower your Focus Attack with Smoke Deploy, and then she'll swap back to Clownpiece after you take down Futo.

In the second room, you will fight Mai. Mai's Puppets are as follows:

Level 58 Speed Seiga
Level 60 Assist Satori
Level 58 Power Doremy
Level 59 Power Iku
Level 62 Power Mai

That Satori is evil. Evil evil evil. As far as I can tell, she was reflecting all damage back to me, and then I think the Iku did something else that lowered my attack drastically.

In the third room, you will fight Yumeko. Yumeko's Puppets are as follows:

Level 59 Power Miko
Level 60 Defense Kokoro
Level 63 Speed Yumeko
Level 60 Power Sakuya
Level 59 Power Sagume

Didn't really run into any problems here. I guess that Miko could be an issue if she hit first, but if you just get her below 50% health then she becomes trivial due to her ability.

In the final room, you will face Shinki. Shinki's team is as follows:

Level 62 Speed Junko
Level 68 Power Shinki
Level 65 Power Yumeko
Level 65 Power Mima
Level 62 Speed Byakuren
Level 64 Power Sariel

Junko's ability makes it so she deals damage to you after you knock her out, so be aware of that. Also, Yumeko has Morale Booster, so her attack will boost if she manages to knock out any of your Puppets. Sariel and Shinki are both weak to Light type attacks, so as long as you have those, you should be all set. Oh, and huge level advantages help too.

With Shinki defeated, congratulations! You have beaten Shard of Dreams! You'll see Yukari speaking to you again before the credits roll.

Well, for the most part. Now we have a post-game to cover!

When the credits are over, you'll find yourself in the Hakurei Shrine, and you'll be greeted by Marisa, who will bring you to also visit Sanae and Reimu. Sanae will bring you outside, and you'll be free to begin doing whatever it is you want to do. 

And there are some options there. And I'll have guides for them once I finish them! Off to writing!
