Tateobesu is a fish-like demon in Devil May Cry 2. It has the ability to become invisible causing it to disregard locking-on, but it is still visible to the naked eye in this state.^[1] Only Lucia has the task of fighting this tricky boss and, unusually, the entire battle is staged underwater, unfortunately limiting you to just using underwater weapons.

[edit] Strategy

Tateobesu is capable of turning invisible, denying you the chance to get a lock-on with your bow gun but he is still plainly visible to the naked eye. While he’s in this state the only thing you can really do is just shoot at him for the time being.

Whenever his tail turns white it means it’s preparing to whip you with it, so try and swim to a side to avoid it and when he eventually becomes visible again be careful of his charging attack, swim as fast as you can and if done correctly you should be able to wind up behind him when he rushes by allowing you to blast away with your bow gun some more. Keep in mind that you are able to use your devil trigger underwater so use that to your advantage.
