UPDATE: The build doesn't show Cheater equipped as a Lumina on Sciel. Please make sure to equip it.
This is on actual NG+5 and also works on NG+4. No HP Multiplier was used. Enemies get more HP and stats on every NG+ till NG+5.

*BATTLE STRATEGY:*
Set your turn order to Verso and Maelle for Phase 1. To do so, remove everyone from your party except Verso and then add Maelle.For same results, make sure you have the exact same Pictos and Lumina as in the video and nothing else equipped.
PHASE 1:
Simon's Turn: Parry or Dodge all his attacks.
Turn 1 Verso: Shoot until no AP is left. Then do a Base Attack. This is to increase Burns and max out the Gradient Bar as much as possible.
Turn 2 Verso: Repeat the same as previous turn.
Turn 1 Maelle: Use Swift Stride. This will also max the Gradient Bar.
Turn 2 Maelle: She will consume the Gradient Bar on this turn. Use Burning Canvas to one-shot Simon the Divergent Star.
Skip turns to end Phase 1.
PHASE 2:
If you follow the build at the end of the video, Lune and Monoco will always go before Sciel due to Shortcut. If Monoco goes before Lune, just make sure not to fill the Gradient Bar too much. We do not want Lune to consume the Gradient Bar on her first or second turn.
Turn 1 Lune: Use Elemental Trick to generate 4 stains.
Turn 2 Lune: Do a Base Attack to change all stains into Dark Stains.
Turn 1 Monoco: Shoot to increase the Gradient Bar as much as possible. Then do a Base Attack.
Turn 2 Monoco: Shoot to leave a Blue Mark.
Turn 1 Sciel: Use Fortune's Fury on Lune.
Turn 2 Sciel: Use Intervention on Lune.
Turn 3 Lune: Consume the Gradient Bar and use Lightning Dance to one-shot Simon, the Divergent Star into oblivion!

*TIMESTAMPS:*
0:00 Phase 1
1:31 Phase 2
2:44 Build
