Nele Island

Nele Island
(Kasuga)
Millennium Tower
(Kiryu)
Head to the roof and talk to Kiryu.
You can wait for the cutscene to finish as it tells an important detail in the story.
LAD IW - Point of No Return
Progressing the story beyond here will lock you out from finishing any substories or Drink Links. This will also be the last free time in Hawaii so be sure to replenish any recovery items and save your game before proceeding.
Go to the Pier in Shipper's Wharf and ride the boat to your next destination.
LAD IW - Giant Shark Boss Battle
You'll engage in a boss fight with a lvl. 46 Giant Shark. It'll have high damage attacks and has a change to inflict Bleeding. It's best if you have 2 healers in your party.
Boss Weaknesses:
• Lightning
Once you're out of the boat, you'll have to fight groups of Palekana Zealots.
Follow the purple marker towards your objective and find Bryce.
Go through the minefield carefully. Stepping on a landmine deals 100 damage!
You'll meet Connor and Konani who are both lvl. 47 just chilling in the cave. Defeat them to proceed.
Fight through the Palekana Zealots until you reach the gate and start a cutscene.
Talk to the village elder to patch Joongi up in the shed.
Defeat the Palekana Zealots in combat after the cutscene.
You'll immediately face Hill, a lvl. 48 enemy. After defeating him and his allies, use the HP recovery spot to replenish your HP.
Go to the training grounds to find Bryce.
Defeat the first wave of Palekana Zealots.
You'll have to defeat a lvl. 49 Palekana Zealot named Akamu.
There's a Save and Recover Point in the next area so make sure to replenish your HP there and save your progress.
You'll have to fight a lvl. 48 Giant Squid to proceed. If one of your party members are eaten during combat, you can control that party member from inside and aim to destroy the squid's Ink Sacs.

Destroying all of them will cause the squid to spit your eaten party members out. There should be another Save and Recovery Spot nearby after defeating the Giant Squid.
Be prepared to fight 2 waves Palekana Zealots as you head down the elevator.
There will be yet another Save and Recovery Spot in the following area. This is the game telling you that powerful foes lie ahead!
You'll be in a cutscene where you see Bryce, the final boss. He'll summon allies and cannot be harmed until you've completely defeated the waves of Zealots appearing. Note that Bryce will use skills even when he's not technically part of the combat yet.

The first wall you must take down is Ramos, who's lvl. 49. make sure to recover your lost HP and MP before defeating him, as it's followed up by another battle.
The last obstacle before Bryce would be Graham, a lvl. 49 Palekana Elite. Again, restore your HP and MP before defeating Graham, as you'll be facing Bryce and his minions immediately.
Bryce is Lvl. 50 and has extremely high health. Clear out the small fries first so you can focus on setting up debuffs for Bryce while also buffing your party members.

Millennium Tower

Nele Island
(Kasuga)
Millennium Tower
(Kiryu)
After Kasuga's storyline, you'll now be playing as Kiryu. This will also be a Point of No Return, making it the last time to freely explore Yokohama, and the last chance to complete any substories and Drink Links.

Talk to the Daidoji agent if you're ready to proceed with the story.
You'll be fighting waves of Seiryu Clan Members after the cutscene.
After the waves of enemies, the stronger ones follow. Defeat both lvl. 48 Narita and Nishikawa to proceed.
Ride the elevator and continue following the objective marker while defeating Seiryu Clan Grunts along the way.
Take on a lvl. 47 Seiryu Clan Member named Ohashi. After defeating him, open the safe in the room to find the Street Soul Jacket, a 7-star equipment exclusive for Nanba.
Continue defeating enemies as you go towards the objective marker.
Recover your HP and MP in the Kitchen Area and save your progress before moving to the next area.
Defeat the first wave of Seiryu Clan Members.
Defeat the second wave of Seiryu Clan Members and a lvl. 48 Shiraishi. Be wary of his attacks as it may inflict bleeding!

Once defeated, go back to the previous area to restore your HP and MP and save! You can find a safe before heading up the stairs that includes a Cabaret Queen Dress, a 7-star equipment exclusive to Saeko.
Fight the waves of enemies together with Goro, Daigo, and Taiga, who temporarily replace your current party members and move on their own.
After fighting with the temporary allies, you'll be fighting Seiryu Clan Members again, but with your original party members this time.
The next area includes a helicopter with someone firing a minigun. Hide behind the pillars when the helicopter passes to avoid getting hit.
Continue plowing through the area, defeating enemies left and right while avoiding the helicopter's attacks until you reach Nakayama, Omori, and Tanabe. They are all tough, lvl. 48 enemies.

Start focusing on taking down Nakaya and tanabe once Omori summons a barrier since it absorbs most attacks and you'll be dealing little to no damage to Omori in this state.
After the battle, recover your HP and MP, and save before proceeding to the next area.
Defeat the lvl. 52 Ebina. During the first half, prioritize debuffing Ebina instead of buffing your party members since they'll get cancelled by Ebina.

Ebina will now be equipped with a katana during the second half, immediately heal up your party members or apply a debuff on Ebina since he'll deal a high-damaging attack. In this state, switch to buffing your party members than debuffing Ebina.
Boss Weaknesses:
• Blade Attacks
• Lightning

Tips For Clearing the Finale: If I Can Dream

Get Exclusive Equipment from the Safes

Han Joongi's Equipment Chitose's Equipment
Mukoda's Equipment Nanba's Equipment

You can get exclusive, 7-star equipment for both Joongi Han and Chitose inside the safes in Nele Island during Kasuga's playthrough, and for Mukoda and Nanba in the Seiryu Clan HQ during Kiryu's playthrough. Find and equip these as soon as you get them since they provide high Defense and Willpower.

List of all Gear and Equipment

Attempt to Destroy the Tentacles

LAD IW - Attempt to Destroy the Tentacles

The fight will become smoother if you can try to remove the tentacles during battle by hitting them with a single blow. Buff up your attacks and deal with the tentacles first to reduce the total damage dealt upon you by the giant squid.

If you're unable to 1-hit KO the tentacles, aim for the main body instead while constantly healing to ensure survivability.

Prioritize Buffs in the First Half of the Ebina Fight

LAD IW - Prioritize Buffs in the First Half of the Ebina Fight

Buffing your party members will render ineffective during the first half because it will get cancelled out by Ebina when he taunts one of them. When Ebina still has above 50%, prioritize debuffing him to maximize your damage.

The best skill for debuffing Eniba is Nanba's Malodorous Stench which lowers both Attack and Defense of enemies, effectively weakening them if stacked.

List of All Skills

Be Wary of Eniba's High Damage Attack

LAD IW - Prioritize Buffs in the First Half of the Ebina Fight

Eniba will be equipped with a katana once his health goes down below 50%, and starts the second phase. He will heal up 1000 HP and deal about 500 damage to your party members. Set up debuffs to strengthen your defense and lowers Eniba's attacks beforehand to withstand the damage, even if it'll get negated the next turn.

You should also have at least recovery skills on not only one party member, as to not rely much on only that party member for heals. Even if your party member is purely for damage, you should at least inherit a recovery skill from the other jobs.

All Jobs and Unlock Conditions

Switch to Buffs During the Second Half

LAD IW - Prioritize Buffs in the First Half of the Ebina Fight

As the debuffs will get negated during the second half, switch to buffing up your party members in this phase. Eniba also heals 1000 HP while negating the debuffs applied to him, so maximize your attacks by buffing to overwhelm him and exceed the amount of HP he recovers.
