GUESS WHAT?? I FINALLY BEAT THE BEACH BALL! HAHAHAHA!

*ahem* Yes, after 4 months of attempts, I have completed what may be the hardest of all Phantasms in this series, even if this one IS a fanmade phantasm.

I won't lie, this has got to be the hardest extra stage I've attempted and practiced for a really long time. More than IN's extra. Yes, I did say that. The stage part of the phantasm is... Really not that bad. Once you get the target and laser patterns, it really isn't that bad.

But, the REAL thing about this phantasm, are the mid boss and boss fights. Yep.

And who we have for midboss? No one other than... Maribel Han herself. Yes, we meet the infamous Maribel. And boy, does she hurt if you do a first run through! Especially her last 3 cards. I think they really will screw you over if you're not too careful.

But Maribel was only the midboss fight, do you know who was the real Phantasm boss? None other than ExRumia herself!! That's right! Drile put ExRumia into this game as the phantasm boss. AND SHE IS HARD! LITERALLY! 4 months she kept bonking me around. Know why? The entire Phantasm fight, including the Maribel midboss fight, relies HEAVILY on RNG. Yes, RNG is involved, big time. ExRumia is relentless. If I had to be specific, her 3rd, 6th, 7th, 8th and Last Word cards are the most painful.

To be honest... I can't really explain much about ExRumia... You know, RNG being heavily used in this fight (Drile be damned). But I have a solution for that. I am writing a pastebin of all of Maribel and ExRumia's cards. There you can see how much I went into detail and how much I hated the RNG... I mean, right now I can probably deal with ExRumia with the other shot types... But, I just want a break... The 3D Project is great. I really recommend giving this a try, hopefully the C&D placed on the Township can be lifted. I'm breaking from this XD.

Also, the 2 themes used for Maribel Han and ExRumia are super awesome. Especially ExRumia's theme. It's too good!

Anywho, enjoy, in what I think, is the Phantasm of all Phantasms. (Will add the link to the rundown in the near future)
