We're not at the traditional “Stage 4 difficulty spike” yet, but Stage 3 can make you start feeling it. Specifically, this is the first time you'll start dealing with enemy swarms that can really make you regret being at lower than max power. Still very manageable since nothing too crazy is gonna be thrown at you, just be aware of what exactly is gonna be coming your way.

Sannyo is... tough? But honestly I find her mid-boss non-spell to be tougher than the vast majority of the spells she pulls off (I can say for certain her non-spells get progressively easier through this stage). She isn't helpless though, especially when it comes to her non-directional attacks. Her second spell card for example will have attacks coming at you horizontally with very little room to move, and her last one then forces you to move horizontally through slow bullets while staying ahead of aimed lasers.
