** Before even Ouroboros, there is Asura. While he carries a weakness to Ice, he has a very annoying skill by the name of Asura Roga. Remember earlier in the sector where much of the Strike Team was affected by the [[HatePlague Delphinus Parasite]]? Well now, it's your turn to experience it firsthand! Asura Roga can affect the entire party with the Rage ailment barely seen anywhere else in the game at all; Rage boosts afflicted party members Attack, but it also causes them to attack randomly either the boss or their allies. Very often the player will find that their own party wiped each other out, or came close enough so that all Asura had to do was essentially sneeze at them to win. Sure, you can spend your turns curing everyone of Rage (assuming the MC isn't affected and has the appropriate items, and/or a demon ally has a skill that cures it), but by the time everyone is healed up, Asura may use it again. While he also carries two more powerful attacks Ashura (powerful random target Physical attack that can hit multiple times) and Black Flame (basically Maragidyne except--again--hitting random targets), both of those tend to be much more bearable than Asura Roga.

** Before even Ouroboros, there is Asura. This one can be especially unpleasant because all the parasites you fought previously were annoying but not especially difficult, lulling the player into a false sense of security.

** On Day 7, we have the Septentrione Benetnasch. First off, you can't summon any demons mid-fight because Trumpeter is using his jamming song to keep Benetnasch from dispelling the demons you already have. Second, Benetnasch is completely immune to all human attacks, so you'll have to rely on demons to do any damage. It reflects Physicals, so the Game-Breaking strat of Tailwind+Multistrike doesn't work. It has two forms, the second of which gets high level physical/force attacks and is the first boss to use Dragon Eye (giving it three attacks every turn). There are Megrez buds sitting around doing their usual full-map earthquake damage, and after you get so close Benetnasch fires four of them straight into the vicinity of Trumpeter (you get a Game Over if they kill him, by the way). And even if you ''do'' beat Benetnasch, all it does is break into ''four segments'', each with their own high-level magic and special abilities that correlate to the seven Septentriones. You need a well-balanced party to stand a chance, and if the wrong character dies you might find yourself unable to finish off the final fragment, in which case it's back to square one!

** For [[BonusBoss bonus bosses]], let's consider Nebiros. You have to fight him on Day 3 in a New Game Plus, and he's surrounded by endgame level demons. You have about two turns to get to the middle of the map in order to save a group of civilians, and if you don't have a demon with flight it's pretty much impossible. Then comes Nebiros himself - level 84 with a penchant for the Paral Eyes/Death Call combo. Even if you carried over demons from a previous save, there is no way your human characters will be able to survive more than a turn at the most against him. So far, so Atlus, but things get [[ItGotWorse worse]]. Nebiros has two unique abilities - the first is Necromancy, where if there are fewer than three enemies on the map on his turn (not including himself) he'll revive enemies until there are at least three again. The second is Undead - after you've shed blood, sweat and tears killing Nebiros, he body-snatches one of the enemy parties and comes back at full health. Now do the math: Can't be killed if there are enemies on the field + revives up to three enemies ''every turn'' = an insanely difficult fight. That said, it can be a good source of [[LevelGrinding grinding]] if you know what you're doing...
