The Magatsuhi system is one of the new mechanics introduced in SMT 5. Whenever the player finishes their entire turn, a part of the Magatsuhi meter will be filled. Once filled, the protagonist or any of their allies will be able to use a special Magatsuhi move. These skills can be in the form of Buffs, Debuffs, and Attacks.
