SMT V Mitama Drops
Each Mitama type drops a rare item or two, and defeating them also rewards you with a sizeable amount of experience.
Ara Mitama drop (Red): Grimoire, gives demon enough experience to level up Nigi Mitama drop (Blue): Glory Crystals Saki Mitama drop (Yellow): Rare relics, sell to Gustave for Macca Kushi Mitama drop (Gold): Gospels, raises the Nahobino’s level by one
SMT V Mitama Weakness
The thing about Mitama is they have no set weakness. You could fight five different Ara Mitama consecutively, or even two in the same battle, and they’ll each have a different weakness.
If you’re going Mitama farming, make sure to take several spyglasses with you. Have the tool mastery Miracle unlocked as well, so your demons can use items. It gives you a better chance of taking down more than one Mitama in battle.
When you’ve found the weakness, it usually just takes one hit to defeat the Mitama.
Mitama Locations in SMT V
You can find Mitama in a few ways, though randomness governs most of them. There’s a small chance a Mitama will spawn in random battles and a greater chance one will turn up in an ambush battle at an investigation spot. These are the least favorable for you since the enemy almost always goes first.
Mitama run away immediately, or even worse if the enemy party has more foes, they cast Debilitate to lower your stats and then leave.
Some Mitama also spawn at certain points on the map. This isn’t an exhaustive list, as we’re still hunting them down, but here’s where to start looking.

Mitama Farming in SMT V
It’s worth noting that Mitama won’t appear every time in these locations. If that’s the case, or if you lose a battle, head back to the nearest leyline fount, travel away, and come back. This usually gets demons to respawn, which increases your chance of finding Mitama.
Chiyoda is a fairly small and open region, and I had the easiest time farming Mitama there, or at least, Mitama that aren’t Nigi Mitama.
That’s it for our SMT V Mitama guide, but check out our other Shin Megami Tensei V guides for more tips and tricks.
