Twinstars (Uber Rare Cat)

The Twinstars are an Uber Rare Cat that can be obtained by playing the Rare Cat Capsule during the Cyber Academy Galaxy Gals event. They were added in Version 6.2 on June 27th, 2017. True Form added in Version 8.1 decreases recharge time, increases speed and damage and grants Weaken Immunity. Talents were added in Version 12.2.

*Fast movement speed
*Short recharge time
*Cheap cost
===Cons===
*Low health
*Mediocre range
==Strategy/Usage==
The Twinstars are not the best generalists due to their health, but let them loose on any XP Stage and they will demolish everything. Just make sure to keep them well protected with your meatshields or they will most likely get knocked back before attacking. They are generally not great at quickly killing units that have a wide range or many knockbacks, but, thanks to their multi-hit ability, they are one of the best units for crowd-control and are also able to keep Black pushers at bay by knocking them back every time a foe comes charging. 
In stages like Gestalt, Decay, they are one of the best units to use as they can juggle enemies, stalling their approach via brute force. They have better range than many small units and are more cost-efficient, so it depends on the stage. Twinstars work very well in Into the Future and Cats of the Cosmos too, although the lack of abilities to counter Starred Aliens specifically prevents them from being universally good in the latter. 
Unfortunately, even though they have higher range than rushers like Awakened Bahamut, they do not have the damage to back themselves up since they rely on their special ability. This often means even against their targeted traits, they can struggle and sometimes perform no better than generalists.
===True Form===
Divine Twinstars gain slightly higher damage, higher movement speed, reduced recharge time, and immunity to Weaken. This makes them much more useful in their own niche, doing better than what they're already good at, but doesn't necessarily improve the most. Nevertheless, they still can be used as powerful specialists, having the range to back it up.
===Talents===
Basic stat boosts, as with most stat-based units, are helpful, but only after a significant investment with Catseyes if you really lack better specialists. Twinstars can perform well, but are more of a mediocre unit and the NP could be spent elsewhere.
Curse Immunity does not serve them well, as there are much better ways to deal with their targeted traits, even if curse sources are factored in. Furthermore, most curse-inflicting enemies deal extreme damage and have massive health, which are the very things they cannot handle. Slow, while consistent with their multi-hits, is also unnecessary, as superior options exist in their targeted traits, and being a unit that specializes dealing damage, it's better to kill them outright, leaving the crowd control for others. Resist Wave is just straight-up useless for fragile units like them.

*Normal Form: Two girls holding hands. They appear to be wearing matching dresses, backpacks and wristbands, all in grayscale. Two machines that appear to be cat paws float above them. They have 3 attacks, in this order: cat paws smash the ground, they kick, their mecha-paws do an uppercut.
*Evolved Form: Now in full colour. They take blue and gold as colour scheme. The paws now have claws, are red and white, and have characters in the middle. The left one appears to have 「阿」 (Ah) written on it, and the right one has 「吽」 (Un).
*True Form: The girls are now wearing vests over their shirts, and their boots, outfits and mecha-paws are in matching colours, with some extra gold linings. The right girl's colour scheme is mainly white, and the left girl wears mostly black. They have small hexagon shapes surrounding them, like the other Galaxy Gals.
==Trivia==
*In the Japanese version, the Twinstars are known by their individual names, being Shishiru and Komari.
*They are the only unit from Galaxy Gals to appear as two people. Also, they are the only ones to not have some kind of gauntlet on their arms and are one of the few Galaxy Gals that smile.
*「阿」can be pronounced as "ああ" in Sino-Japanese reading, "aa3" in Cantonese and "Ā" in Mandarin.All of them resembles the pronunciation "eɪ" in "alien".
*「吽」 is the sixth Pāramitā in the Six True Words commonly used in Buddhism, one of the important religions of Japan. The word is associated with the color black.
*Their True Form was originally called "Ultima Twinstars, type Φ", but was later changed to "Divine Twinstars" in Version 9.1.
*They may be a reference to the anime “Onmyoji Two Stars” (Jap. Sousei no Onmyouji), where the 50th series is called “Two Stars. Twins”, as well as the second name of the anime “Twin Star Exorcists”.
*They may also be a reference to the physical representation and pronunciation of अहूँ, the Sixth Pāramitā mentioned above, 阿吽 in Chinese and pronounced a-hūṃ, where A is the sound made with the mouth fully opened and hūṃ is the sound made with the mouth closer. In Buddhist statues , A and Hūṃ would appear in pairs with A always having their mouth open while the other always closed, same with how the Twinstars appear in game.
