Hooray! Here are all of my first captures for each of the 8 scenes in StB's Extra stage. Overall, Extra wasn't that bad. Yeah, some scenes were a bit tough, but none of them compare to scene 9-6. I'm very glad to have this complete--I've always sucked something awful when it came to StB (at least, in my opinion)

Ex-1: Taboo "Forbidden Fruit"
禁忌「フォービドゥンフルーツ」

This one is pretty straight forward. Depending on your strategy, some shots may require some considerable speed with the Z button though, and fitting through gaps while charging can sometimes backfire (see: Aya is fucking slow while charging)

Ex-2: Taboo "Forbidden Games"
禁忌「禁じられた遊び」

This card was actually the last of my Extra captures because I thought it was going to be a pain in the ass. Turns out, circling around Flandre made it very simple.

Ex-3: Boundary Sign "Boundary between Form and Emptiness"
境符「色と空の境界」

More like, Boundary Sign "Boundary between Stupid and Fucking Stupid." The clusterfuck Yukari sprays during the third and final shot is random nutsack, and remembering to pay attention to the lasers while some stray bullets are still leaving the screen was annoying.

Ex-4: Boundary Sign "Boundary between Wave and Particle"
境符「波と粒の境界」

One of my favorite cards in the entire series. Always a blast to play.

Ex-5: Exalted Personage "Advice of St. Germain"
貴人「サンジェルマンの忠告」

I found it really easy to make stupid mistakes here, and because of these mistakes (and the fact that this scene requires ten shots), I spent the most time grinding this one out of all the other Extra scenes. Yeah, before capturing this, I died on the final shot. I was expecting it to happen because this game hates me, and hey, surprise surprise -_-

Ex-6: Hourai "Mizunoe no Ura no Shimako and Five-Coloured Turtles"
蓬莱「瑞江浦嶋子と五色の瑞亀」

Stupid, stupid pattern. Took me way too long to figure out what the fuck was going on, and once I found out how to do it, it remained a stupid, stupid pattern. What the hell was ZUN thinking? This card is the epitome of hitbox prayer.

Ex-7: Qi of Oni "Deep Fog Labyrinth"
鬼気「濛々迷霧」

Fun scene, Suika chasing you while in mist form adds a sense of urgency to the card and gives it some nice atmosphere (no pun intended).

Ex-8: "Pandemonium"
「百万鬼夜行」

The very last scene, and I guess it's fitting since it's basically an everything-in-your-face card. Suika goes apeshit during the last two shots, but she stays low enough so it's difficulty isn't absurd. I fail a shot here, but hey, it happens :P
