Do I need to use a spyglass to save enemy stats?

If they haven't been recruited? I can tell money is going to be tight in this game (have the cheat DLC from the bundle but not using it). Also, I'm assuming Mitama weaknesses change every encounter, so even if other enemy data is saved with spyglass, you still have to spyglass them everytime to know what to do?

If you fought and defeated the enemy before it’ll be remembered.
Mitamas you have the spyglass however as their innate skill means their weakness is randomised at the start of the battle. Either that or brute force your way with almighty or pierce attacks. A bit hard early in the game so just stock up spyglasses for these encounters. Sometimes some will escape but that’s fine.

they shouldn't be escaping. one tip is that passing only uses a half-turn icon rather than full turn so if your mc is in slot 1 and used spyglass for instance and only mc has ability to deal w/ weakness then you can pass back to them. (now if they dodge, that's some poor luck)

If you find a group of 4 it’s often inevitable because there’s only so many turns. Unless you use the ability that doesn’t allow enemies to flee until the next moon or something which I never used

no, you don't need spyglass every battle, because after you beat them, their stats automatucally added to analyze tab, but if you wanna know their weaknesses during battle, spyglass comes pretty handy

special for mimatas, yes their resistances always change and won't added to Analyze tab, so spyglass is needed until you unlock Yabusame Shot from Yatagarasu. Yabusame Shot + Matador/Mot/Abaddon Crippling Blow will kill mitamas much easier, and Loa Taboo for double chance of Crippling Bow effect
