    Honestly, this is the most embarrassing part about this event, in my opinion. Something that legitimately helps, and is more powerful takes a lot less time to get. You can 100% guarantee getting the anima weapon, from i170 (hand in Zeta, get the astral and umbral nodules), i200 (you only need the weapon on before leaving), i210 (tomes are a guaranteed drop, crafts can be purchased), i230 (tomestones again...), i240 (tomestones and scrips are guaranteed... yet again.).

    It's just... not fun. You don't exactly get a reward besides glamour, and even then, not many people in the first place like the look of the weapons...

    Baby, tell me, what's your motive?

    That's just the way it has been for Vanity items. Minions from dungeons had been rare drops since Brayflox, Mounts need some excessive Grinding of either Primals or FLs. Pure Glamour Items are almost always gated by crafting of the highest level and amount of stars as the amount of patches with expensive mats (and occasionally Gold Saucer).

    Even regarding the Anima, what it is to the Yo-kai weapons the Tome weapons are to the Anima weapons and the Padjali weapons can be gotten even more easily.

    With that said I should mention that I liked a lot of the weapons and that there is the glow in the dark Whisper Puff Jr mount and the satisfaction of getting all the achievements before they are rendered unobtainable.

    Well, I'll give you the minions one, but mounts, I can't validate. You could just do a single run of Bismarck EX and see the mount drop, and you're done. But this is a situation that is the same for EVERYONE, which means everyone is gonna have to go through some level/degree of grinding, be it 222 fates and extremely good luck, or 1000 fates and the worst luck ever. But if you obtain an item, from a duty, that's it. You're done.

    Regarding crafting, gil is an option. There is no convenience option in this event. They could have made it so you can purchase legendary medals through the normal Yokai medals, or purchase the weapons directly through a certain amount of Yokai medals.
