Spell Card 30


Screenshot No. 30:
Owner: Hong Meirin
Level 5 — 1
Comment: Take a free picture right in the beginning, then it would be best to try and have Meiling move in a pentagon pattern around the stage. There is a slight safe area perpendicular to her bullet releases, but there will always be stray bullets scattered around.

Flowery Sign "Colorful Light Lotus Flower Palm"

Owner: Hong Meirin
Level 5 — 3
Comment: There are many gaps in the waves, just go between them.


Spell Card 33


Screenshot No. 33: 水&火符「フロギスティックレイン」

Water & Fire Sign "Phlogistic Rain"
phlogiston: assumed substance to explain the fact that flammable materials lose the mass when burned. This theory had been already rejected.

Owner: Patchouli Knowledge
Level 5 — 4
Comment: You must stay away from the top of the screen. Going there will not give you enough time to charge up a defensive shot. At the beginning, immediately use the rapid rewind, and get ready to dodge the first wave of water. Take a shot as the two water streams intersect, then dodge upward into the gap. Shooting too early will make you miss this chance. Charge, and dodge the next couple of waves, then again, take the shot as the two streams intersect. Repeat.

Tip: If you dodge the first bullet of the triangle wave of bullets all the bullets in that wave can easily be avoided if you do not move, only move to dodge the first bullet of the second triangle wave.


Spell Card 34


Screenshot No. 34: 彩翔「飛花落葉」

Colorful Flip "Fluttering Petals and Falling Leaves"

Comment: The best way to clear this is to start at a corner and charge the camera, when she approaches snap a picture right when the bullets are released. After that run to the opposite corner and start charging the camera right away keep dodging bullet while charging. By the time she makes to to you you should have the camera ready to take a picture. Run back the opposite corner and repeat.
