He's not particularly difficult for a final boss imo. You might have problems if you've been playing on Normal the whole game and suddenly ramp it up to Hard though. Second phase is a cake walk and you shouldn't have anything to worry about once you beat the first.

Here are a few tips though if you're having trouble. Equip some Krona Symbols/Amulets if you have them because Mithos has a move that will give your whole party random status ailments. If not, just power through with panacea/anti-magic bottles. Obviously keep Raine in the party, and if Mithos is overpowering you just have her use Nurse or Revitalize constantly through a shortcut. If you still need more healing bring in Zelos/Kratos. You might wanna keep Lloyd as your only physical attacker just because Mithos can easily destroy anyone at close range with Shining Bind and trying to recover half your party can be tricky in this game.
