Doublecast allows a character to cast two Black Magic spells in one turn. Since it’s basically doubling the damage output of Black Magic users, it is definitely worth learning and using once you gain access to it.
And this ability does work with One MP Cost, so you can deal some pretty strong damage with the right weapon abilities.

How Does Doublecast Work?
Selecting Doublecast in Battle
When Doublecast is learned, you can find it under the “Special” command in battle. After choosing Doublecast, you will then be prompted to select two Black Magic spells to cast.
The selected spells will be cast as they normally would, the only difference being two of them will be fired off in the same turn. Effects from auto-abilities like One MP Cost, Half MP Cost, and Magic Booster will also be applied when using Doublecast.
When a character uses Doublecast, you can only choose from spells that particular character has learned. You can choose to cast two different spells or the same one twice.

This is Lulu’s Celestial Weapon, and it has 3 auto-abilities that help improve her Black Magic:
