If I could somehow record myself playing, I'd show you how I'd avoid both of their attacks, but I do use my gun the most. Assuming you're fighting them with maximum health, OP, and stamina, as soon as they both drop down, throw a Stun Grenade and get a full-burst in. What I normally do is focus on the female (hop up, slash a couple of times in mid-air, hop again as you're decending -> slash a couple more times). Do this over and over, while getting Bursts. The male form isn't too bad, I ignore him most of the time. If you see him and the female form together, take caution. Just be careful. If he's holding her in his arm:
a) She's going to sit on there, and he's going to fire his cannon.
b) He's going to throw her across.
This is easy, just either duck beneath him if "a" happens, get a burst. If "b", dodge her as he's throwing her, and just change to gun form and shoot her really quick, dash towards her while switching back to sword, and get a couple hits in on her halo, etc. I find Novas really easy now, compared to Tsukuyomi. Did you do the mission with "2" Tsukuyomis? It was one after the next, it was really.. annoying. Seemed like forever.
Also, if the male form is levitating up and shooting those '3' balls of light at you, just spam your dash button and curve as you're getting away. Or you could always block if you have the stamina for it. Whenever the female form floats up and the screen turns pink, you can probably switch over to gun form and just aim -> shoot her. Literally free shots.
Besides that, it's basically what I do when I fight Novas.
