LOL.

Note that this is on Normal mode, it's should be more challenging on Lunatic (maybe just a little bit). In fact all of my walkthrough was on Normal.

Anyways. Final battle between Buddhists and Taoists. Since this is the Buddhist route, the throne boss is Toyosami no Miko, while Byakuren Hijiri spawns as green unit on squares nearby with player unit deployments.

The enemies are pretty strong... you'll have to get past several Fortress Knights with Tomahawk/Spear/Brave Lances and their good defenses... Luckily for you, Armorslayers exist. (You're gonna love them.)

Byakuren's AI as green unit is actually make sense here and not at the same time... She always prioritizes using Physic staff to heal your allies from afar but she often does it on a unit who isn't critically injured for some reason. She didn't initiate a combat in this video - it's possible that she would, but her AI is prioritized into using Physic staff first. And every so often with that many units you'll have anyone not at full HP, especially when it comes to level ups.

Anyways. Soga and Futo still move, and by the way Soga doesn't have that Silence staff anymore. But guess who have it instead? Seiga. You'll need to watch her staff range. Maybe try to Silence or Sleep her will really pay off hard, but her high resistance stat makes it difficult to do with a high magic stat from someone with sufficient staff rank.

As for the boss, Miko - oh boy, a lot of dodge due to being on throne, and her 7-Star Sword prf is actually a magic weapon - it targets your characters' Res. And she's fast enough to double pretty much anyone, not to mention Brave effect and Adept that can get up to 8 attacks in a row.
This feels like fighting Ryoma from Fire Emblem Fates, except with magic damage instead. But, there is one catch:
Miko gets walled by magic tanks. With enough supports, Reimu can actually null all of the damage taken (here, she didn't got enough Res and actually took 1 damage per hit).

Oh, and for some reason, 1 HP "Doll" enemies (I'm pretty sure these are Phantoms in the original FE8 but they're almost otherwise scrapped for some reason) keep spawning at the top-left and top-right if you take too long. Creepy as frick...

After this is only one chapter left, the final chapter (which is same regardless of Buddhist/Taoist path, but you get to keep whichever units from the route exclusive and including their Gotoh archetype character - Byakuren for Buddhists, and Miko for Taoists).
