How to Beat Stage 1 - Wordless Novel
Defeat the Furbo Journalists for Punchlines
For both halves, it's important to defeat the Furbo Journalist as soon as possible to get more Punchlines for Aha's Instant.
Stage 1 - First Half
Attack The Mr. Domescreens Once
In Wave 1, you'll face multiple Mr. Domescreens. They will reduce your team's Energy if you don't switch their channels, so attack them once to flip their channels and instead get some Energy regen for one of your characters.
Take Down the Automaton Beetles
In Wave 2, make sure to take down the Automaton Beetles first since they can summon a barrier after attacking.
Stage 1 - Second Half
Attack The Mr. Domescreens Once
In Wave 3 of the second half, take down the Illumination Dragonfish to have them deal damage and apply Vulnerability to other enemies.
