Walkthrough

12F: Elder's Coffin

If you've followed the walkthrough on floors 10 and 11, all 4 failsafe locks should be activated and the battle with Eientei should be available. There are a couple other things to do before that, though.
After reaching the 12F relay point and when all switches are set to OFF, it's possible to reach Tenshi by backtracking to 10F and passing through the three gates there. Assuming you have recruited Iku, talking to Tenshi causes a butterfly to appear on each floor one through ten. Once all the butterflies are defeated, Tenshi herself can be fought and recruited.
On the path you took to get to the first blue switch, there's an area to the left which requires the green switch to be ON. If the red switch is OFF and the blue is ON, there are a couple of items, a sake jar shard, and the first event towards recruiting Flandre. If red is ON, there's an additional item to get.
Once the first Flandre event has been viewed, there's another on 12F in the northern area, which opens up the 13F event with her. All switches have to be set to ON, then flip the green switch on the left side to OFF to do the event.
If you haven't done all of the sidequests like recruiting Sanae, Suwako, Nitori, and Tenshi yet, it's recommended you do so before fighting Eientei. It's the hardest battle so far and you'll need all the levels you can get.

Notable Enemies

Demon-Faced Tops are extremely fast and have a relatively strong physical attack. On top of that, they may spawn in groups of two to three, meaning that they can damage and possibly kill several members of your team before you have a chance to act. However, they have low health, mind, and defense, so spend some skill points in defense in order to survive their attack and kill them.

The battle against Eientei is quite difficult. All three enemies are capable of using very strong magic which will quickly wipe out your party if you don't do something about it or heal constantly. Fortunately, all three are also somewhat vulnerable to paralysis. Komachi's Narrow Confines of Avici might look extremely useful, but Kaguya will counter by using Buddha's Stone Bowl, which nullifies any stat debuffs and applies a 33% bonus to all stats on top of that, making an already hard fight almost impossible (it's worth nothing that Buddha's Stone Bowl is only used if there are at least three individual stat debuffs on the enemy party), so it's safer to stick to pure paralysis spells. One way to get around the debuff problem is actually to kill Kaguya before she ever gets a turn. Suwako's Moriya's Iron Ring spell is invaluable for this due to its high chance of long-lasting paralysis, and with the decreases to defense and mind that Narrow Confines of Avici inflicts, Kaguya's low HP can be whittled down very quickly. Eirin may use Hourai Elixir to heal Kaguya but this is more of a boon then anything, as it only heals about 15,000 health and makes keeping your party alive easier. Once you kill either Eirin or Kaguya, the other will start using Astronomical Entombing or Hourai Barrage, both of which are devastatingly powerful. With Kaguya gone, it's important to keep your debuffs focused on Eirin, but even if you do get hit with Astronomical Entombing it should be possible to have one or two characters survive with the proper preparation (having SPI resist and lots of MND boosts helps). Reisen isn't much of a threat compared to Kaguya and Eirin, and seems to have much lower paralysis resistance to boot.

Alternately, it's possible to reduce both Eirin and Kaguya's health slightly above the point where they start casting their doomsday spells (about 30,000), and then focus them both down at once with strong multi-target spells. Either way, this is arguably the hardest boss fight yet. Be prepared to grind a lot and reset a lot.
