What are spirits?

Game characters with abilities that can give your fighters a boost in battle. Increase your fighter’s abilities by equipping a fighter with spirits to borrow their special powers.

Two types of spirits

Primary spirits boost your fighter’s physical abilities, while support spirits grant new skills. You won’t believe how many different spirits there are!
