You could just switch out Lamina or Venu for someone with either 200 Thunder ATK Up, a much higher ATK stat or with an Answer Skill whic hcan be activated on turn 1. This is one of those times where a fully released Tsubaki or Lennox aren't half bad (especially since they have nukes for the boss battle.

You can 0-heal #13, so I don't see why you'd really need Venu and Lamina's Special Skill isn't all that.

Damage output against water comparison in that setup:

Venu: 7891 (from turn 3 and onwards)

Lamina: 10554 (from turn 6 and onwards)

Tsubaki: 5038 (from turn 1) (as a bonus, her super-high ATK means she also gets a lot of extra mileage from the ATK Boosters)

Lennox: 5614 (from turn 1) (her so-so ATK means she gets less mileage from the ATK boosters)

Even if you reaaaaally need Venu's heal to survive (you shouldn't), you can simply switch out Lamina for Tsubaki and Lennox at a mere loss of 5000 damage per turn, which isn't that terrible since they've both got nukes (9447 AOE damage for Tsubaki and 7812-8788 damage for Tsubaki (IIRC, her multipler is 1.6x, but "Ultimate" is 180%. I'll do a test run right now since I'm farming blue books, anyway!).
