Around the 15th level =/= only on the 15th level. I don't remember which floor I specifically found it on, but look for a blue distortion from floors 10-20.
Whenever you accept a quest, the game will tell you if you are on a floor that has monsters/items/etc pertaining to your quest. The exception is the "kill x generic monsters" quests.
EDIT: Ethereal Power is an all-purpose stat that raises that character's overall combat ability. More Ethereal Power = more damage dealt, less damage taken. I am also led to believe that Ethereal Power is the "best" stat since the Ethereal weapon evolutions are by far the most obscure weapon evolutions to obtain and nothing else in the game seems to boost it.
I handled that quest around floor 17, a big blue GRYPHON ON THIS FLOOR notice showed up the second I entered. Thanks for clarifying the Ethereal Power thing, I'll start using Yumina's ability points on it.
Why is the game punishing me for winning the student council? I had to slog through the dungeons and memorize AI patterns to scheme perfect 55-67 ults on bosses! Then they ship me off to space with tons of robot science shit and everybody is cool with this. WHY? ALL I WANT IS TO FLIRT WITH THE MIKO TWINS AND EX-PRESIDENT. SEND ME BACK PLEASE.
Using Glint of the Dark (kirara) in the battle against de miko sisters crashes the game too... happened several times until I noticed that was the cause
Hey peoples, I'm back. And guess what I brought with me?
Translated straight from the JP wiki, here are Ethereal Weapon Evolution ability requirements for Akashima Ayumu. There are a total of six stages of evolution for each character's weapon, and to get a certain stage, you need all the skills at that stage. For example, Ethereal Stage 5 of Ayumu's weapon (Shadow Lightning of Nirvana) requires:
Vivid Feelings LV7
Wedge of Forgetfulness LV7
Indomitable Spirit LV8
Divine Blade LV7
All Resistance abilities (Infernal, Nature, Blizzard, Dark) LV7
Steadfastness LV6
Flash Step LV6
Unfettered Will LV7
I'm working on an Excel spreadsheet for all the weapon evolutions including the other three branches besides Ethereal (Attack, Defense, and Balanced). Expect that to be done... at some point. If an English wiki pops up somewhere I'll throw it on there instead.
Some quests are real pieces of shit to finish. Specifically 7 chimeras. Fucking things never show up. Should have made any trash mob kill quest blue like everything else.
Stuck at floor 3 of tower dungeon, apparently the floor has a portion to bottom right that is inaccessible. Ran around the edges multiple times to no avail, might be that using a glass screws the dungeon over...
lv21 party, doing Phantasmal Golem quest and Distortion Dwellers quest. I have truesight glass' 'Disabling Disguise' buff on. Crudely edited image attached
EDIT: Skipping back to an old save, then completing Distortion Dwellers first before entering tower seems to fix the problem? Didn't get the same bugged floor this time.
Also, be wary of opening treasure if you're too far down without saving. I was on the 20th floor of path of cracks and opening a treasure box errored the game out.
There is indeed a New Game+ feature, but it's not what you would expect. You carry over everything, and can breeze through the game on Normal as many times as you want.
However, you cannot fully clear the game without advancing the difficulty to Hard, and then Super Hard. While you can do NG+ on Normal, it is not recommended to do so only for the sake of clearing routes. Doing NG+ on higher difficulties effectively turns it into a new playthrough, except you happen to have more skills available in the beginning.
downloaded all 16 parts of this game but no matter what I try I keep getting the "the same volume can't be used as both the source and destination" error, anyone know exactly how to fix this?

I've made the full translation for the ethereal, if you need it ~~
Not going to make the other, cause not interested
Forget to include: you need certain character level for every weapon level. For weapon level 1, you need character level 11, weapon level 2, character level 21, and so on.

Could it be the English ver of Yumina uses different factors for weapon evolutions? According to that chart my Ai doesn't even reach a Stage 1 evolution when I beat the game (0 points in Suppression and Stagnation, had 87 ability points I forgot to spend) but ingame she has reached "Blue Thunder Gun: Glacial Bullet" already. Right after in NG+, I added "Bewilderment" and "Confusion", skills not listed in the chart, her weapon leveled up to "Blue Thunder Gun: Deep Waver" instantly after. Confused here.
NG+ keeps everything you earned, including dungeon progress, skills, storage. However at hard difficulty your first enemies will be lv26 already. The interesting thing is that scene-earned skills can be gotten again with a huge boost in level (Sincere Brainwashing Lv1 turned into Lv4).
The only material requirement quests in my first playthrough was 7 Cockatrice Eggs, 2 Stone Golem's Heartstone & 15 Stone Golem Fragments, then NG+ 20 Legion Feathers. An interesting thing about quests that make you kill X of a monster is that you don't have to kill the monster on the floors mentioned: Ripoona wants 7 Chimeras in the tower dungeon floors 1-5 dead, you can go to Mizelt Tomb floors 10ish and oneshot them instead until you clear.

In this game, you can get 4 kind of weapon depending on your skill tree: offensive, defensive, balanced (between those two), and ethereal.
My previous post only translating the skill needed to get the ethereal one. The easiest way to spot that it's ethereal is, your weapon gives bonus ethereal status.
Perhaps your Ai didn't get the ethereal one, but most likely offensive or balanced.
