SMT V Vengeance: All Miman Locations & Rewards

Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance expands the demon-fusing adventure with a vast open world in Da’at, filled with hidden collectibles that boost your power. Among these, the **Miman**—adorable red imp-like demons—stand out as essential hunts. Scattered across regions, collecting them grants **Glory** for Miracles and unlocks rewards from Gustave at Cadaver’s Hollow. This guide details all 250 Miman (200 base + 50 new in Shinjuku), their locations, and every reward to help you achieve 100% completion.

Why Hunt Miman? Benefits and Mechanics

Miman are more than cute distractions; they’re key to progression. Each one yields 5-7 Glory (varying by region), fueling the Miracle system for Nahobino upgrades like enhanced attacks or reduced costs. Gustave tiers rewards every 5 Miman, offering **essences** for demon fusion, **talismans** for Magatsuhi skills, healing items, and gems.

• Glory Efficiency: Minato Miman give 5 Glory; later areas yield more. Maps from Cirronup foxes speed searches.
• Trophy Impact: All 200 in one route unlock Savior of Lost Children; full 250 needed for Platinum.
• Timing Tip: Collect before the final boss—no post-game free roam without New Game+ or manual saves.

Visit Gustave after milestones to claim prizes. Use Sky View for overviews and flight for high ledges.

Complete Gustave Rewards Breakdown

Gustave’s shop evolves with your collection. Here’s the full list up to 250 Miman, grouped by thresholds. Early rewards aid survival; late ones enable elite fusions.

Note: Exact late-game rewards like 200-250 may vary slightly by route; prioritize Canon of Vengeance for extras.

Minato Region: 50 Miman Starter Hunt

Minato introduces Miman basics near leyline founts and ruins. Start at Tamachi for easy picks.

• Tamachi (1-5): #1 by first fount; #2 on bridge stairs; #3 in NW building; #4 behind rock; #5 on opposite ledge.
• Mita (6-10): #6 behind rubble; #7 above fount via bridge; #8 on hill post-Abscess.

Pro Tip: Climb highways and drop strategically; use demon flight early.

Shinagawa Region: Mid-Game Challenges

Shinagawa ramps up with watery paths and demon guards. 50 Miman here yield higher Glory.

• Key Spots: River ends, broken buildings, high platforms. Example: Southeast river for one, west pillar drops for others.
• Tricky Ones: #165 in open destroyed building; #166 through SE road building; #167 on pre-path roof.

Clear Abscesses first for safer hunts.

Chiyoda and Taito: Advanced Exploration

These core areas host 50 each amid dense ruins. Chiyoda favors elevated ruins; Taito has slopes and tracks.

• Chiyoda Highlights: Platforms southwest of founts, railway backs, northeast slopes.
• Taito Standouts: #247-250 near final statue—progress south methodically.

Glory from here unlocks mid-tier Miracles like stat boosts.

Shinjuku Exclusive: 50 New Vengeance Miman

Vengeance adds Shinjuku with 50 fresh hunts, essential for full completion. Focus on hills, cliffs, and new paths.

• Entry Area: Right hill north to cliff edge for first few.
• Deep Zones: Sendagaya slopes, urban cliffs—scan for red glows.

These aren’t needed for base trophies but complete the set.

Pro Strategies for Miman Mastery

Beyond locations, optimize your hunt:

• Cirronup Maps: Pay foxes per region for hints—worth Macca.
• Visibility Hacks: High-contrast settings; fly demons like Pixie for scouting.
• Route Planning: Leyline founts as hubs; manual save pre-boss.
• Glory Synergy: Pair with map pickups for Miracle spam.

Post-collection, fuse rewarded essences for power spikes—e.g., Yoshitsune at 140.
