Leveling up your characters in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth will only get you so far. You need to rack up some SP to unlock proper Folios skills from them as well, and that’s where the Manuscripts come into play. Here’s a rundown of all Manuscript locations in FF7 Rebirth.
How to Get All Manuscripts in FF7 Rebirth
Every character in FF7 Rebirth has a Manuscript type that’s specific to them. Acquiring one will reward them with 10 SP, which can then be used to unlock new skills in the Folios feature. Listed below are all of the Manuscript types for each character:
- Cloud: The Art of Swordplay
- Barret: Sharpshooter’s Companion
- Tifa: Way of the Fist
- Aerith: Telluric Scriptures
- Red XIII: Tale of the Red Warrior
- Yuffie: Secrets of the Ninja
- Cait Sith: Fortunes Untold
Of course, these don’t come by easily, and they can be pretty hard to find. But that’s where we come in. Here are all of the Manuscript locations we’ve discovered so far.

As far as we can tell, there are a total of six Manuscripts for each character in the game, which comes up to 42 Manuscripts that you need to collect over the course of your journey. Most of them are obtained through the Moogle Emporium. That being said, if you find that some of the Manuscripts listed above aren’t showing up, chances are good you need to unlock the character first, or progress through the main story and get to the next region before you can buy them.
And those are all of the Manuscript locations in FF7 Rebirth that we’ve discovered so far.
