3T no barrier pen has never been done even in JP, and i was extremely satisfied because the most optimal comp includes 2 of the most underrated units in the game Ewella and Zeviro and neither of them are replace able. This clear is very complex so bear with my explanation :

Boss Gimmick (All necessary info before diving into the clear) :
- Boss started with 410 spd, if hit by weakness boss will get double of it's stats which means 820 base spd. Boss also gains 90% type resistance aura.
- Boss will gain barrier penetration whenever it reaches 600 spd and once it gains barrier pen speed debuff won't cancel the aura.
- Boss gain 30 barriers on stopper, with nuke 50% max HP 1500 damage. Boss also have 100% pain resistance but not poison resistance.
- Environment effect gives 5% max HP damage every turn, this includes boss which will take damage 5% or 36m per turn.
- Boss has 730m HP, stopper at 50% (365m) and 25% (182m)

Turn 1 :
- The clear starts with what i would say pretty tough AF as 12 different skills are used in this AF. The detail strat is if you realize i used yukino pierce zone skill before switching to water zone immediately before i hit with any weaknesses.
- This is because i need to reduce boss speed to 0 with yukino skill before i hit with any weakness that doubles it speed keeping it at 0. If i hit with weakness first before debuffing or at the same time, boss will gain 820 spd which means it will gain barrier penetration and i cannot let the boss gain barrier pen on turn 1.
- The reason i cannot let boss gain barrier pen is because i plan to block boss stopper attack (50% max HP + 1500) with Yukino barrier so i stay at full HP and i can nine lives boss first turn action nuke, if boss have barrier pen i will die here. also pain damage will be blocked by barrier here.

Turn 2 :
- The goal in turn 2 is a tall task. You have to break 30 barrier, and deal specific amount of damage into boss with 140% resistance (90% type + 50% physical), surviving boss attack, stopper attack, environment and pain damage, while gaining 50% AF bar in 1 turn so you can AF final phase.
- Break Barrier and damage is achieved by : 8 hits from buddy, milla eot 1 hit and 100% water res down, yukino 1 hit 65% pwr and 25% phy and res down, environment 1 hit, ewella 10 hits, zeviro AS VC 5 hits, and 4 hits from first set of Hismena skill allowing the second set of skill to damage the boss
- AF gain achieved by : 15% from buddy, 15% from hismena, 7.5% from milla eot, 7.5% from yukino and zeviro VC giving me 52.5% AF. So Ewella and Zeviro basically cannot be replaced and the most optimal choice.
- The detail strat here is to damage the boss specific amount so environment damage on turn 3 will cause it to reach stopper, since the stopper is 182m and each environment hit deals 36.5m, i need to deal about 109 - 140m. CANNOT be more or less. The reason is i need to get stopper nuked after i got healed by uquaji and yukino. If i do way too much damage i will die because of boss attack and stopper attack before i can even heal
