Spirit (species)

Spirits (精霊, Seirei) are elemental entities in Magical Vacation. They serve the purpose of increasing the damage output of magic attacks in combat, similar to how Planet alignments work in the sequel, Magical Starsign.

Spirit Combos
See also: Combat (Magical Vacation) § Spirits

By befriending Spirits throughout the game, party members can summon them to the field by using Call and Double spells. If a spell is cast while Spirits of the same elemental type are on the field, a Spirit Combo is triggered. This will multiply the spell's damage depending on how many Spirits were present for the Combo.

Spirits & the Overworld
Some areas in Magical Vacation are filled with Spirits of numerous elements, and having a certain amount of Spirits befriended is necessary to enter sealed rooms within these locations. Spirit recruitment is an optional task with no major influence on the story, as is entering the sealed rooms, but having few Spirits in the party will make combat significantly harder.

Examples of this can be seen in areas such as Cold Honey Palace. Instead of immediately going to the palace's lowest level to find Blueberry, the party can enter the sealed rooms and push Dodos up to Love Hunters. By doing so, the Love Hunters chant a spell to turn the nearby Dodo back into a Spirit, and they will be recruited without an asking price. Cold Honey Palace's sealed rooms have emblems of Spirits on top of the doors, and they will only open if the player has recruited at least 1 of the Spirits on the emblem.

The Pyramid's chambers work just like the ones in Cold Honey Palace, except the player needs 3 Spirits of the same type to get into the sealed rooms.

Some locations of Spirits will change based on which element was chosen at the start of the game. When the player recruits their first Spirit in the starting area ofMimolette Forest, the 7th Spirit of that type will not show up in the Pyramid.

Recommended Order
Due to some Spirits having conflicting views on what the player should and shouldn't own, a certain order must be followed if players want to achieve 100% completion.


 * Avoid catching or purchasing Gummy Frogs at all costs until all 7 Love Spirits are recruited.
 * Avoid challenging Darkness Spirits 1 - 6 until all 7 Light Spirits are recruited (see below for details).
 * Catch as many Gummy Worms as possible to make Stone Spirits appear, then use the Gummy Worms to befriend Insect Spirits.
 * Do not recruit any Beauty Spirits until all Stone and Insect Spirits are on the team.
 * Once all 7 Love Spirits are recruited, there is no consequence for catching Gummy Frogs. These are needed to find Darkness Spirits.
 * The first one that should be recruited is Darkness Spirit 7 (1000 Gummy Frogs caught) in Touekat. Once it is obtained, the player can train to master Light Magic for Yekrut where Light Spirit 7 is.
 * Light Spirit 7 will only allow the player to have 1 Darkness Spirit recruited. After befriending it, the player is free to challenge the 6 remaining Darkness Spirits.
