Manuscripts are collectible items which raise one of your four characters' SP by 10. Increasing your characters' SP increases their Weapon Level, which unlocks new Sub-Cores for each of their weapons, so obtaining these items is key to reaching your weapons' max potential.
It's possible to reach Weapon Level 5 for each character simply by leveling up, but to reach the required 250 SP to hit Level 6 and unlock the last Sub-Core for each weapon, you'll need to find at least 4 Manuscripts for that character. As only 3 Manuscripts for each character are available on Easy and Normal Mode, you'll need to beat the game and unlock Hard Mode before you can reach Weapon Level 6 for any of your characters.
Although Volumes 1-3 of each Manuscript are available on Easy and Normal Mode, it's only possible to obtain Volumes 4-14 of each book on Hard Mode.
Hard Mode is unlocked after beating the main story once. This will also unlock Chapter Select, allowing you to go back and find any Manuscripts you missed, so you won't have to worry about missing Manuscripts permanently if you're looking to collect them all.
Post Game Content | New Game Plus
Collecting all the Manuscripts doesn't yield a particular trophy or reward, but it's reward enough in itself – with all the Manuscripts and each character at Level 50, you'll reach a total of 356 SP, enough to unlock every upgrade for every Weapon. Now that's completion!
