Am I the First to do this?
Of course the run I finally beat Demi-Fiend, is where I keep making really bad mistakes... I promise most of my other attempts wasn't this bad. But I think the main reason for that was stress. I pretty much been working on this for two weeks straight, and it was driving me crazy. It worked out in the end, but I'm so glad it's finally over... So, yeah. I know this isn't the best gameplay ever, I just didn't want to spend another two weeks just for "better" gameplay.
STRATGEY 1/4
Gaea Rage/Freikugel
Obviously, the main threat is Gaea Rage, which Demi-Fiend will use if you don't kill at least one of his demons ever five or six turns. But when defeating one of Demi-Fiend's demons, he will summon another, then on his next press turn he will use Freikugel. However, there is a way to minimize the amount of times that Demi-Fiend will use Freikugel. Basically, all you need to do is keep at least one of Demi-Fiend's demons low on health at all times, so that they can be finished off at the last minute to avoid Gaea Rage (the exception to this is Pixie and Pravati, kill them ASAP). Of course, Demi-Fiend will use Freikugel at some point... If it crits most of the time it will kill, especially if Demi-Fiend's party start spamming Luster Candy and Debilitate. Guarding helps, but luck will be needed to survive it. Also, I did try to use Shield of God to defend from Freikugel, it help but I find that I would start lacking in damage if I used it to much.
2/4
Buffs/Debuffs
Demi-Fiend's party will use Dekaja, and Dekunda if you have any stat maxed. This means you can get away with using Luster Candy and Debilitate once. However, Demi-Fiend's party can also use Luster Candy and Debilitate at anytime, consider it a more expensive Dekaja, and Dekunda. But because of that, I consider Boon Boost/EX to be completely useless. There's not point in wasting a skill slot, when Demi-Fiend party can just spam Luster Candy and Debilitate multiple times on one party turn. That's just my opinion though. Other then that, there's really only one more thing to be careful about. The miracle "Enhanced Summon". It raises one stat to a demon that you summon, and if you use Luster Candy after summoning, pretty much guarantees Dekaja will be used. That screwed me up many times, so watch out for that if you want to try this.
3/4
Damage
I approached this like a normal run. Spamming the Magatsuhi skill Omagatoki Critical, whenever I could. At the very least I would want to have my party's stats up by one, and Demi-Fiend's party down by one. But when I had the chance I would max out my buffs on the turn that I used Omagatoki Critical, for the extra damage. I would pretty much repeat that process the entire fight. Once Demi-Fiend's health is low, and stats are on my side, I would pull out all my demons to give Nahobino 5 turns. Then I would use Omagatoki Critical before attacking, then hope the damage is enough to defeat Demi-Fiend.
4/4
ACCURSED POISON
Accursed Poison is 100% an exploit. HOWEVER, I allowed myself to use It once, to prevent Demi-fiend from using Mediarahan. If you tired doing this without Accursed Poison, It would take about a hour and a half to do. With this time length, and all the threats in this fight combined, is a very stressful experiences. Regardless of how well a run may be going, at a certain point you will lose control, and It's very difficult to recover from. Losing "control" can happen in many ways, Missing, aliments, healing, Chaotic Will, Luster Candy and Debilitate spam. All this could prevent you from doing damage, or not enough to Demi-Fiends party, and thus getting hit by a Gaea Rage. To beat Demi-Fiend without Accursed Poison you will need Immense luck, everything to go perfectly for you, and have it last the full hour and a half. Now, I'm not saying It's impossible to do this without using Accursed Poison. More, unlikely. But, time is not on the side of the player. When I was attempting this without Accursed Poison, my good runs would always end some point after Demi-Fiend used Mediarahan. There has also been a very few times where I'd reach that point with Nahobino still having his Enduring Soul, and Withered Goat. Mostly because of Freikugel and Chaotic Will, but my point is, Accursed Poison makes this a bit more doable.
Other Info
I did not use Incenses, but I did use Sutras and Balms. I also did make use of the Miracles skill Warrior's Conception, Unforgotten Memories, Prayer of Strength, Vitality, Magic, Agility, and Luck for fusion.
