Stage 9 has some of the more frustrating spellcards in the game, not to mention the infamous 9-6 spellcard.

9-1
(unnamed)
This Scene is ridiculous. It's not that it's particularly hard to do, it's just that the bullets are so DENSE, you're given almost no room. I can't count the number of times I've gotten to the fifth shot, only to be clipped at the last second :(
Still, can't really get mad at it, considering it's all reading and dodging.

9-2
新難題「月のイルメナイト」
New Impossible Request "Lunar Ilmenite"
Fun card, really. Again, pure dodging. There's apparently an easy way to misdirect the bullets by going around the upper corners, but I decided to take it on the old-fashioned, more-satisfying way c:

9-3
薬符「胡蝶夢丸ナイトメア」
Medicine Sign "Butterfly Dream Pill - Nightmare Type"
This is hilariously easy. Eirin's butterfly bullets are completely incapable of harming you; they're actually aimed AROUND you, unlike most aimed bullets which are aimed AT you. All you have to worry about are the flower petal bullets, which aren't densely-packed enough to be even slightly threatening.

9-4
新難題「エイジャの赤石」
New Impossible Request "Red Stone of Aja"
Not too hard until the last shot, where the lasers suddenly, like, double in density, making it very easy to get smashed in the face by Kaguya's big laser, especially since it just moves so damn fast.

9-5
練丹「水銀の海」
Elixir "Mercury Sea"
This card's pretty much a logic puzzle, but I have yet to figure out exactly how it works. So I just stole a strategy from someone else and used that instead :D
The bullets are aimed at SOMETHING, I just don't know exactly what...

9-6
新難題「金閣寺の一枚天井」
New Impossible Request "Seamless Ceiling of Kinkaku-ji"]
Oh, 9-6. How many ragequits you have inspired in people. Often touted as the hardest card in all of StB, 9-6 is...really not all that hard. It's mostly reading gaps, taking shots as fast as you can, and hoping you don't get walled in before your camera's finished charging. I personally think it's really fun.
Also how the HELL did I make those dodges around 4:40?

9-7
秘薬「仙香玉兎」
Secret Elixir "Lunar Incense"
Oh this is another fun card, since you basically control how it goes. The lasers are always in the same place and when you take a shot, go away JUST long enough for you to get out of the way. It's a matter of micromemorizing, unfortunately, but it's worth it.

9-8
新難題「ミステリウム」
New Impossible Request "Mysterium"
And then Stage 9 ends with the hilariously easy 9-8, Mysterium. Not much to say here, it's just going back and forth and taking a shot whenever you feel like it. I am disappoint, Kaguya :C



Only Stage 10 left!
