2) Enter Shibuya and proceed forward for another cutscene to show.

3) Head to the Shibuya Metro

4) Talk to the Guard there to investigate the area. He'll tell you that you need a pass to enter.

5) Head back to Shinjuku Babel and talk to Yamamoto the Steel-Willed in the command center. Talk to him about other work and select the option to get the Seven-Branched Sword.

6) Proceed Back to the Shibuya Metro and prepare for a difficult dungeon run.

7) Talk to the Guard again to investigate the area and he will allow you to enter.

8) Complete the Shibuya Metro Dungeon.

The map is very direct with just a few forkroads to take note. 

Battle map

First Map:

  • The red dot is where you are starting. Proceed behind the red line(its a door) and prepare yourself. Once you pass the door Miasma effect will be inflicted on you.
Miasma gives continuous HP and MP damage and sets HP and MP regeneration to 0.
  • The white dots are NPCs that will appear once you defeat the demons over at their area. You need to claim a Key Card from them to proceed.
