This is a thread for discussing Zenith (Last Word) spells in Imperishable Night. Feel free to discussing anything regarding the Last Words.
My favorite Last Word is Deflation World. Although I consider it to be one of the easiest Last Words, I really like the whole idea of Sakuya using time powers to manifest the past, present, and future of the blue knives into a single instance. The spell card was really well designed imo. Blazing Star comes a close second though, because I find it really cool how Marisa just charges down at you while being engulfed by her Master Spark
I also decided to make a tier list of these spells by difficulty, based on my own opinion and personal experience:

I also decided to make a tier list of these spells by difficulty, based on my own opinion and personal experience:
Meta Knight Tier - Literally impossible without 100% memorization and near-perfect execution; learning this is a ridiculous process, I'd suggest looking up the routes instead
Profound Field -Phantasm, Foam and Shadow- (Yakumo Yukari)
Top Tier - Insane bullet patterns that demand great raw skills; you'll need to demonstrate impressive skill growth if you want to improve your chances at these
Fantasy Heaven (Hakurei Reimu)
Saigyouji Flawless Nirvana (Saigyouji Yuyuko)
Total Purification (Kamishirasawa Keine - Hakutaku form)
High Tier - Mostly trick-based, but execution is still really intense; continuously re-attempting these a large number of times should eventually crush them
Tree-Ocean of Hourai (Houraisan Kaguya)
The Phantom of the Grand Guignol (Alice Margatroid)
Scarlet Destiny (Remilia Scarlet)
Lunatic Red Eyes (Reisen Udongein Inaba)
Mid Tier - Requires quite some skill but not unreasonably difficult; trial and error should secure mastery over these spells
Ancient Duper (Inaba Tewi)
Unseasonal Butterfly Storm (Wriggle Nightbug)
Phoenix Rebirth (Fujiwara no Mokou)
Heaven Spider's Butterfly-Capturing Web (Yagokoro Eirin)
Low Tier - Somewhat difficult but very reasonable; sufficient practice with learning these spells should be enough to conquer them
Emperor of the East (Kamishirasawa Keine - human form)
Blazing Star (Kirisame Marisa)
Paschal Moon-Reflecting Satellite Slash (Konpaku Youmu)
Bottom Tier - Can be kinda annoying, but otherwise relatively mild; quite straightforward once you know how to tackle them
Deflation World (Izayoi Sakuya)
Blind Nightbird (Mystia Lorelei)
Profound Field -Phantasm, Foam and Shadow- (Yakumo Yukari)
Top Tier - Insane bullet patterns that demand great raw skills; you'll need to demonstrate impressive skill growth if you want to improve your chances at these
