Shoot the Bullet: Level 7 Spell Cards


Spell Card 46


Screenshot No. 46:
Owner: Sakuya Izayoi
Level 7 — 1
Comment: Simple, you just stay under sakuya at all times and only move with her.


Spell Card 47


Screenshot No. 47: 魔符「全世界ナイトメア」

Devil Sign "World in Nightmare"

Owner: Remilia Scarlet
Level 7 — 2
Comment: This card looks simple at first, but there's some subtlety to it.

Remilia disappears at the start of the spell, and you need to wait for her to return (21 ENDLESS seconds of doom) before shooting.
You need to rotate around the bat while avoiding the white bullets.
While Remilia's in bat form, you might be tempted to use defensive shots to clear the white bullets when going "over the top", but DON'T. (Note: Some users have pulled this off, though. It's just a sliver per shot.) Every time you press the shutter, an extra column is added to each of the blocks of red knives, so you don't want to take any defensive shots during this card, or the knives will increase to a point where it becomes difficult to sustain the rotation. Only shoot when you can get Remilia in the viewfinder. (Fact checking confirmed: 7 streams initially, one added per snapshot.)
Also, when circling around the top, be careful not to move too quickly, or else you will run into the barrage of bullets in front of you. This can be easy to forget whilst taking a picture.


Spell Card 48


Screenshot No. 48: 時符「トンネルエフェクト」

Time Sign "Tunnel Effect"
tunnel effect: the phenomenon that a matter overcomes a potential barrier with lesser energy than the barrier.

Owner: Sakuya Izayoi
Level 7 — 3
Comment: Same concept. stay under sakuya, but stay far enough away to be able to freely avoid the large bullets.


Spell Card 49


Screenshot No. 49: 紅符「ブラッディマジックスクウェア」

Scarlet Sign "Bloody Magic Square"

Owner: Remilia Scarlet
Level 7 — 4
Comment: The knives move in curved lines; act accordingly.

The easiest way to defeat this spell is to shoot and clear the knives every other time Remilia launches them. In other words, clear the knives on her first, third, fifth, seventh, ninth and eleventh launches, and then take your final shot whenever you can.
If you can predict the direction in which the bullets will accelerate after the knives leave the screen, you may want to "jog" your viewfinder in the opposite direction when shooting (be careful to get all the knives in the viewfinder, though). This may make the task of dodging the bullets slightly easier.
On your staggered shots (3rd, 5th, etc.), try to take a picture of the centerpiece of Remilia's prior pattern. For example, on the third shot, completely capture the third pattern and the centerpiece of the second. This greatly reduces the number of bullets you have to dodge.
(Does anyone know what exactly influences the bullets' movement direction?)


Spell Card 50


Screenshot No. 50: 空虚「インフレーションスクウェア」

Void "Inflation Square"

Owner: Sakuya Izayoi
Level 7 — 5
Comment: You must start by charging the camera as when the red bullets surround you you must take them out with a picture to avoid certain death. After that you must dodge the knives while charging or you won't be able to take a picture on her next attack, where again you must take a picture to survive. It is best to position yourself near the middle so Sakuya will be in the shot when you take your defensive shot.


Spell Card 51


Screenshot No. 51: 紅蝙蝠「ヴァンピリッシュナイト」

Scarlet Bat "Vampirish Night"

Owner: Remilia Scarlet
Level 7 — 6
Comment: Remilia will constantly be shooting bats at your last position, these bats can't kill you but will stay there and fire knives slowly. The bats can be destroyed my having them in the picture. The strategy for this stage is to take out as many bats as possible at the same time taking a picture of Remilia. So it is best to move slowly to keep the bats in one place and near Remilia.


Spell Card 52


Screenshot No. 52: 銀符「パーフェクトメイド」

Silver Sign "Perfect Maid"

Owner: Sakuya Izayoi
Level 7 — 7
Comment: Take pictures only when Sakuya is moving or else she will stop time and move away


Spell Card 53


Screenshot No. 53: 神鬼「レミリアストーカー」

God Devil "Remilia Stoker"
Stoker refers to Bram Stoker, the author of the novel Dracula.

Owner: Remilia Scarlet
Level 7 — 8
Comment: This isn't hard. Just avoid the lasers and use your second focus to your advantage.
