Won't you light my way?

# Story

The chapter begins with the speaker recounting part of Sumire and Hitori's history, recounting their parents dying in an accident and them being sent to live with their grandmother, and also of witnessing the accident in which Eito Hojo assaulted their sister Yumi, leaving her in a wheelchair. The speaker laments a "family curse", and of not being strong enough to protect their happiness, a happiness that keeps vanishing.

Hitori wakes up from this dream with tears on his face. He gets dressed for the day in his own outfit and Sumire speaks to him inside their shared consciousness; she reminds him of STΔRLIVHT's practice, though Hitori refuses to do so, being uncomfortable with the outfit Sumire usually wears for practice. He decides to skip practice for the day and Sumire protests, and as a compromise, Hitori makes a note to head over to tell them Sumire feels sick as he prepares breakfast and greets Yumi, who offers her support - though Hitori brushes it off.

Hitori heads out for the day, though Sumire chides him for being mean to Yumi; shortly afterwards, a Noise Beast attacks. Sumire and Hitori panic, though eventually decide to sync up with each other using the NOISZ/RS to defeat it.

Taking on a Noise Beast takes its toll on Hitori and Sumire's body, however, and he stumbles. Logged in as Sumire, he tells the rest of STΔRLIVHT that he had to fight a Noise Beast alone, and that "Sumire" is too tired to practice, deciding to go home instead.

# Song

Chapter 1.III's song is Sulyvahn, played as Hitori in his Blackheart style; note that Hitori has a different NOISZ Burst to Sumire, and activating it will raise his ATK while continuously lowering his HP, so be careful using it; take note that it can be deactivated by using the standard NOISZ Burst activation gesture.
NOISZ (Game)/Story/Stage 10C

## Story

Stage 10C starts immediately after NIGHTWING STIMUL8R '17.

After the fight, the air returns to normal, and the cracks in space disappear. The main character asks their friends to take care of the now-purified Noise Beasts.

Before they leave, the main character asks why they ended up in Tacet Forest. Marziale explains that, between the human world and the World of Music, there exists a gap, called the Void. The first invader to the World of Music was trapped in the Void. What remained of him took the form of a suit of armor. Marziale speculates that this armor used its properties of the Void to travel between worlds, and, in exchange, it brought the main character to the World of Music. She notes that the large amount of energy the main character holds likely drew its attention.

Together, Karin and the main character travel through the gate back to the human world.

## Song

Stage 10C's song is NIGHTWING STIMUL8R '17.\*

**Restrictions:** Grade AA or above required.

\**(NIGHTWING STIMUL8R '17 is technically listed in-game as Stage 9C; however, the stage number transitions immediately after that song, leaving Stage 10C as the only stage without a playable song.)*
Asuka Fujita

> *A cheerful, somewhat loudmouthed presence who fills rooms with infectious energy. Constantly online and can seem a bit vain, but actually has a big heart. Deceptively reliable, especially when her friends need her most. Aims to fulfill Yumi's dream of taking SUNRaiSE to the top, no matter what it takes.*
>
>

Asuka is a member of SUNRaiSE and has been for the past seven years, under the lead of both Yumi and Shion. Sometimes, she comes off as having a blasé attitude, but this is a result of her strong will and high confidence. She is an optimistic person, seeing the silver lining wherever she can; as a result, she can often be the equaliser in any situation arising from a clash of personalities.

However, her caring side is far from hidden when it comes down to it, and she shows the same concern for her embattled leader Shion as Hikari does and for Yumi's well-being.

# Story

## Chapter 5

Later on, in Chapter 5.II, Hikari provides reassurance on Asuka's unresolved feelings for Yumi. Later on, Asuka checks up on Yumi, asking if disbanding SUNRaiSE is really the right thing to do. Yumi agrees, figuring out that it's for the sake of its new lead Shion, and agrees. The two of them catch up and Asuka invites her to dinner sometime after the two catch up, though fails to confess her feelings.

# History

Asuka has been friends with Yumi and Hikari since their school days, and eventually formed SUNRaiSE with them, to Eito Hojo's displeasure. Although she always disliked Eito, she was reluctant to step in and voice concerns out of a fear that her disapproval stemmed from her feelings for Yumi.

Release date: April 4, 2022

> *Shion pays a visit to STΔRLIVHT's office, but things become unexpectedly heated. In the aftermath, the sisters think about how to move forward...*
>
>

# Story

Shion, new centre of SUNRaiSE, comes into the STΔRLIVHT studio to see her big sister Hakuno, and is welcomed inside by Producer with a cup of tea. Shion behaves politely around Producer as the two of them talk about Producer's wheelchair, though is cut short by STΔRLIVHT exiting the practice room. Hakuno spots Shion, and the atmosphere immediately becomes tense as an argument flares up between them; Hakuno is displeased to see Shion, insistent that she won't go back "to that house", citing all the messages Shion sent back then ("about a hundred of them"). Hurt, Shion accuses Hakuno of not caring about her, and calls her a fake and a liar, that she hardly recognises Hakuno, though this crosses an unspoken line, and Hakuno tells Shion she doesn't want to see her again. Producer escorts Shion out of the building, and calls Asuka and Hikari to pick her up.

Shion breaks down crying upon entering the autocar, and Asuka and Hikari comfort her as she recalls what happened in the office as she reflects on the events that caused Hakuno to leave the family house, wishing her big sister would talk to her. Asuka and Hikari are silent for a while, and break the silence by resolving to make SUNRaiSE the best with Shion - good enough to impress Hakuno, to which Shion concurs.

Meanwhile, Sumire comforts Hakuno, who regrets the argument just as much as Shion, and knows just as little about her side of things too, and Shion's words weigh heavily on her, especially after having spent so long coming to terms with being trans. She recalls her own side of the story of her parents kicking her out to Sumire, and Sumire gives advice to Hakuno about moving on from the past, though they are interrupted by a Noise Beast.

Hakuno feels better having blown off steam taking out a Noise Beast, and apologises for the scene earlier to Sera, who opts to apologise to SUNRaiSE as the leader of STΔRLIVHT, remarking that maintaining relations is important, though notes that Hakuno hasn't impacted things too negatively. Grace and Sumire offer their support to Hakuno too, who ruminates on her relationship with Shion.

## Bio

> *"Sometimes, it's painful trying to do the right thing... and you start to question whether your choices were really for the better."*
>
>

Miria is a Noise Beast who moved back to the World of Music after living in the human world for a few years with her family. She married and had children with Gaius Antiphon. She and her cousin Marziale act together as oracles and use this power to keep others safe.

## Story

### NOISZ episode G

When Gaius arrives in the World of Music, he immediately runs into Miria, who battles him. Afterward, Miria explains that she's taking time to explore the world outside of her duties back at the castle. The two adventure around the World of Music and fall in love along the way. Eventually, they are caught by Kristoph and brought back to the castle.

As a compromise with Marziale, Miria prepares a ritual to erase Gaius' memories of the World of Music. As she does so, Marziale goes back on her end of the deal and banishes him to the Void. Miria rescues him. Once Gaius returns to the human world, Miria follows him and lives her life as a human in order to stay with him.

### NOISZ re:||VERSE

The main character collapses after using the NOISZ to let Wolf-Girl finally die. They wake up in a cot in Miria's home. Miria reassures them about their decision to use the NOISZ on Wolf-Girl and talks about her own conflicted feelings around what she had to do in order to protect the World of Music.

Miria notes that her and Marziale's combined psychic powers failed to determine how this conflict with Alpha will end. She hopes that the main character turns out victorious.

## History

Miria originally lived in the World of Music. When she met Gaius Antiphon when he visited the World of Music, she fell in love with him and moved to the human world to live with him. Marziale used magic to suppress Miria's Noise Beast form, so she wouldn't suffer rapid aging from being exposed to the energy of another world.

Miria had Beyond and Arietta with Gaius and looked after them. She never told her children about being a Noise Beast, even as Arietta found herself with a strong connection to the World of Music and an intense struggle with musical composition.

Several years after having children, Miria returned to the World of Music in order to protect it.

Ai

Ai
--

Ai is one of the most popular girls in the middle school featured in 2ECONDS TO STΔRLIVHT: My Heart's Reflection, along with Rise and Sumire; she is quick to make up her mind on things and is somewhat opinionated, meaning she often closes her mind to things before giving them a chance. She enjoys the misfortune of others, taking active pleasure out of watching others fail, and often follows Rise.

She prides herself as a "responsible student" by virtue of attending class, despite not actually paying attention in class.

She enjoys baking.

# Story

## 2ECONDS TO STΔRLIVHT: My Heart's Reflection

Ai appears mostly with Rise; the two of them make plans together with Sumire for the weekend, and Ai discusses baking something with Sumire. Eventually, the topic turns to a video Rise saw of someone falling over online.

After class, Ai encounters Hakuno, and following Rise's example, begins bullying her, spreading rumours and intimidating her in person. Sumire speaks up against this, and ends her friendship with Rise and Ai.

Ai and Rise contact Sumire to "apologise" for earlier, though refuse to acknowledge wrongdoing, eventually demanding an apology from Sumire, and Sumire blocks the two of them.

# History

Ai has been best friends with Rise and Sumire since grade school, where they first met.

# Story

STΔRLIVHT maintains their lead in the polls, and Sumire and Hakuno practice in the studio and talk about SUNRaiSE. Sumire remembers seeing their first show while Yumi led the group - a show in a subway station with a boombox and three girls. She considers her sister's legacy, and Sera and Grace burst into the room. Grace goes to inform Hakuno and Sumire of something involving Yashiro, though is cut off by Sera, who calls Sumire for a strategy meeting with her and Grace.

Sera informs Sumire that Yashiro has outed Hakuno as trans to the press to gain a lead in the polls for SUNRaiSE as well as demoralising Hakuno. In anger, Sumire enters conceptual time and leaves the office to scream her frustrations into open air, and a Noise Beast attacks; it is swiftly dealt with.

Hakuno runs out of the building, and figures out what Sumire's angry about, telling her she already knows her father outed her. Sumire expresses frustration at not being able to do more for Hakuno, though Hakuno tells her that her friendship is good enough, and the two hug.

Later, Shion notes that the recent drama has horrifyingly affected the polls, and has turned around STΔRLIVHT's small lead. Disgusted with her father, she heads to the STΔRLIVHT office instead to propose that SUNRaiSE forfeit the competition, stating that she doesn't feel right winning the competition under such circumstances, apologising that things had turned out the way the did. Hakuno accepts her apology, and offers her own apology in turn, and the two make up, resolving to become closer as sisters. Sera rejects Shion's forfeit, however, telling her that while it's not Shion's fault, the fans are still looking forward to seeing both of them perform - that they, as idols, can't let their audience down. Shion agrees, and withdraws her forfeit, leaving the office.

## Story

Beyond searches for the main character in the city. Suddenly, Beyond detects powerful energy but is unable to discern its composition. Realizing she's in danger, Beyond flees the scene, hoping that the main character is alright.

A mysterious figure "???????" talks to themselves. They delight in the control they have over their tools and the situation at hand. While noting a few sacrifices are necessary, they find that fact interesting.

The main character and Karin, now accompanied by the UFO, go to find someone that can help the main character return home. After the fight with the UFO, the gate was broken, and they need to find another one.

The group encounters a guard, Moca, who is sleeping on the job. Karin yells at her, and Moca wakes up. Karin explains the broken gate to Moca. Moca notices the main character's strength and challenges them to a battle.

After the fight, Moca is confused by the sudden disappearance of her power. The main character then asks that Moca help them since they won.

>
>

# Story

Producer muses on STΔRLIVHT's debut performance at the Budo Garden, where the two-member SUNRaiSE is opening for them; the two groups meet up in one of the dressing room, and Hikari and Sumire catch up with each other. The two groups talk about stage nerves and the ins and outs of putting on a performance, though a confident Sera notes that Hakuno is not present, and Sumire goes to get her.

Sumire knocks on Hakuno's door, though Hakuno is still getting changed, and Sumire reassures her about the performance, and the two talk about Sera, and eventually Shion, Hakuno's little sister. Hakuno wishes under her breath that Sumire would rely on her more, though Sumire does not hear.

SUNRaiSE perform onstage in the next scene, impressing an awestruck Producer, though notes something's missing from it - namely, as Sumire states, the presence of Yumi Hitori. Hakuno cuts Producer off with an icy glare before she is able to ask about Yumi's accident; Sumire does not notice, lost in thought on the topic of living up to Yumi's legacy. Meanwhile, Asuka and Hikari say the same, though agree to aim for the top regardless.

Afterwards, STΔRLIVHT perform a group cheer despite Sera's reluctance, and they too perform; all their fears melt away and are replaced with a fierce confidence, and the performance is a hit with the crowd. However, the performance is interrupted by a Noise Beast as time slows to a halt, and the events of Chapter 0.I follow, with Grace dispatching the Noise Beast as Beyond supervises, providing the rest of STΔRLIVHT with the NOISZ/RS.

As before, Grace faints, and Beyond disappears, but not before introducing herself as their direct superior at Antiphon, and a bewildered STΔRLIVHT moves offstage as time begins to resume.

>
>

# Story

Grace wakes up inside an autocar to a worried Sera. The two discuss Grace's battle with the Noise Beast; while Grace found it to be exhilarating, a concerned Sera displays worry for her, telling Grace to be careful. Grace agrees, and the two kiss and make up in the autocar, which stops outside Grace's house before the two can go further.

Grace and Sera enter and are greeted by Lily and Touma, who offer to allow Sera to stay over for the night; Sera calls her mother to ask approval, though receives no response as the call goes to voicemail. With a sigh, Sera cuts off the voicemail and tells Lily her mother gave her approval.

At the end of the day, an exhausted Producer returns to her office and receives a call from Beyond on the phone on the desk, revealing that the phone is a line to her. She tells Producer a report of the events of the day is not necessary, and asks if she has any questions, to which Producer has three:

### About the NOISZ...

Beyond tells Producer that the NOISZ's utility is well-established, and that the users of the NOISZ, namely the idol group that are the critical part of the experiment.

### About you...

Beyond explains she is there as a "substitute", though does not elaborate.

### About the Noise Beast

Beyond explains that the "robot" they saw at the show is a corrupted form of music, called a Noise Beast, which are the source of a phenomenon called The Silencing, which has also been the causes of popular musicians vanishing across the globe. She tells Producer that the advantage of an idol group is that Noise Beasts are drawn to large musical performances, wherein they are purified and sent back to their world.

The NOISZ that STΔRLIVHT possess is revealed to be an imitation of the original NOISZ, and that a NOISZ consumes the user's soul; however, the power of bonds can restore it, and therefore, the model STΔRLIVHT uses is less dangerous that way, though they will have to develop bonds with each other to make full use of it, be it sharing secrets or otherwise.

Beyond tells the Producer she will have to pull her weight to let this happen, and that the Producer was not randomly chosen, but instead chose her path herself, and to erase any memories of doing so. Beyond assures the Producer they are on the same side, and the call ends.

NOISZ (Game)/Rate

## Overview

Rate is the term for the main damage modes the NOISZ can utilise. Most of these are now holdovers from earlier in NOISZ Ignition's life, but for the purposes of keeping them all together, all types of Rate will be explained here. Also note that offensive Rates and defensive Rates can be active at the same time, as well as Lethal Rate and Inverted Rate active together in certain circumstances, but no two offensive Rates can be active at exactly the same time.

## Deletion

The main offensive mode for the NOISZ. Before entering Overflow, the NOISZ is in Deletion Rate. Upon reaching +0%, the victory text will read "Target Deleted". Anything under this will fail the song and read "Target Escaped".

## Absolution

The main Overflow mode for the NOISZ. After entering Overflow, the NOISZ also enters Absolution rate. With +200% Overflow, the NOISZ will purify the target, with the victory text reading "Target Purified". Reaching +200% in Absolution Rate is required for certain songs in Course Mode and in certain songs in Story Mode Story C.

## Obliteration

A secondary Overflow mode for the NOISZ. After entering Overflow, even if you get +200% Overflow, the NOISZ will not purify the target and will automatically delete the target, with victory text reading "Target Deleted" even with a AA, S, or SS grades. This rate appears named in X2 and is always active alongside Inverted Rate in Story Mode Route B.

## Inversion

Inversion Rate is different to the three other "offensive" rates of NOISZ as Inversion Rate is a "defensive" rate, only applying to the player should they take enough damage to be left on 0 lives. If the player is hit when they have 0 lives, the enemy will gain health according to the formula

100
%

l
i
f
e
c
o
u
n
t

{\displaystyle \frac{100\%}{life count}}

. This can and will push you back into Deletion Rate, and fail the verse. Inversion Rate is featured in NOISZ and Void Beast songs, and in Story Mode Route B. Before a song with Inversion Rate active, the text will simply read "Inversion Active".

Certain songs will see the enemy gain a set amount of health, like D.S. al fine healing by 150% on Overload (despite Lethal Rate active), 100% on Hard difficulty, and by 50% on Normal during the quiz.

In Quicksilver, due to the special gimmick, the first hit down to 0 lives will heal the boss by 20%, and each subsequent hit after that will heal 40%.

## Lethal

Lethal Rate is the second "defensive" rate showcased in NOISZ, appearing in certain final boss songs, Entrance and in every song on Overload difficulty. Upon reaching 0 lives in Lethal Rate, you will immediately game over and be forced to restart the song.

## Story

The main character and Karin exit the portal and find themselves in the human world. The two are greeted by Forza, Wolf-Girl, and Jonathan. The world is shrouded in a murky blue fog, and a massive suit of armor rampages through the city.

The main character asks when the armor arrived, to which Wolf-Girl answers shortly after their disappearance.

Arietta approaches the group. A dragon-like girl, Seiryu apologizes for her power not being enough to fight the armor. Arietta explains that she is a NOISZ user like the main character. She states that Seiryu has fallen to corruption. If the main character can defeat her, then Arietta will reveal everything Beyond concealed from them.

## Song Info

 **Rate:** Lethal | **Verses:** 1 | **Boss:** Beyond (possessed) | **Length:** 3:58

## Story Context

In Story C, the entity that was possessing Arietta leaps out of her body and possesses Beyond. The main character then finds themself in the void face to face with this entity, with all of their friends begging them to fight on.

## Gimmicks

After supposedly seeing the ending of Story C, the game backs out into the main menu, where all options are replaced with "Free" with a possessed Beyond's face on them. Selecting any of these options will take you to a Free Mode screen in which the only available song is "Beyond the NOISZ" at the difficulty of your Story C play through.

This song is only one verse and uses Limit Breaker only (Void Breaker on Overload difficulty). This is the introduction of void bullets, which are black and white bullets that, on contact, bring you to the Game Over screen. You can touch void bullets using Crash Mode; however, they will not be absorbed.

Entering a blue zone will convert some void bullets into red and blue bullets and make otherwise impossible patterns avoidable. When you are outside of a blue zone in this song, your Combo resets to zero and you cannot gain Combo.

## Strategies

Be careful not to play too defensively. In difficulties Hard and below, you need to reach Overflow in order to retain the blue zone (and in Overload, you need to reach +600%) so that you can survive the ending lasers. On difficulties where there are void lasers at the end, you need to use Crash Mode at the very last moment and hold the shield to avoid dying.

## Flavor Text

This song's navigator is locked to Arietta.

**Arietta**: I'll only say this once, okay? I believe in you... Please, save my sister from the void...

## Lyrics

 Within your heart a treasure shines for you
So light your spark, let the music take you higher
Just take my hand, there's nothing left to fear
 We'll fly beyond
Believe in fate and you'll see your dreams come true
Be strong and fight, let's go to a new adventure
I'm by your side, always watching out for you
Ever higher than before, now we'll fly beyond
 Always watching over you

## Lyrics

 If this is a dream, then I hope never to see the light
If this is illusion, then just leave me afloat in my desire
If this is just memory, allow me to reminisce
 Someone tell me, “it’s okay”
 Throw away the fetters binding me
 Won’t you believe a tiny spark of hope could
Ever grow into a fire raging in your heart
 Cast away the chains entrapping me
 Would you ever think a tiny spark of courage
Could be all it takes to face the evil in your heart
 If this is a dream, then I hope never to see the light
 Someone tell me, “it’s okay”
 Throw away the fetters binding me
 Won’t you believe a tiny spark of hope could
Ever grow into a fire raging in your heart
 Breaking all the chains controlling me
 Would you ever think a tiny spark of courage
Could be all it takes to face the evil
In your heart
 Open your eyes, spread wide your wings and fly

# Story

Beyond takes STΔRLIVHT to the Antiphon lab via autocar, and Producer stays behind to do paperwork regarding putting the group's activity on hold. The car takes them to the outskirts of the city where the lab is located, and they take an elevator down when inside, followed by a path through several corridors.

The checkup ends up being fairly unremarkable for them, like a physical checkup at the doctor, though after Sera has her checkup, the lights in the corridors go out momentarily. Blue backup lights come on, and Stornel appears; Beyond deduces from his presence that the true NOISZ is somewhere in the building. Stornel remarks that taking it from him will not be possible, and on cue, a Noise Beast - a massive blue dragon - bursts through the wall; he describes it as a trial on behalf of Gaius Antiphon. Feeling it calling out to her, Sera deals with it.

Stornel is nowhere to be seen when the dust clears, and Sera asks Beyond about the "true NOISZ" she had mentioned. Beyond tells her that the original NOISZ that was supposedly destroyed is in the possession of Gaius, and it dawns on Sera that there is some kind of rebel faction in Antiphon heading the entertainment division, aiming to reclaim the "true NOISZ". She has several unanswered questions about the Noise Beasts, though is unable to continue as the ceiling starts to crumble and fall around them, and they make their escape, led by Beyond.

NOISZ (Game)/Story/Stage 1

## Story

The main character wakes up the next day. They notice more anomalies around them, appearing like fissures in the air itself. As they question what exactly is happening to them, an anomaly appears beside them, and out of it emerges a giant wolf Noise Beast.

After the fight, the anomaly disappears. The main character can either choose to absorb a ball of light and energy or reject it. Either way, a girl with canine ears stands before the main character. The two get acquainted. After more conversation (and some arguing between Wolf-Girl and the main character about whether she is a wolf), Beyond arrives. She explains that Wolf-Girl was purified and has taken a form more suitable for the human world.

Beyond warns the two about the next anomaly's presence at the public swimming area.

You can decide to accept, accept (reluctantly), or ditch Wolf-Girl. Doing the latter will result in entering Stage X1.

## Song

Stage 1's song is Song Of The Wolf.

Release date: February 2, 2022

> *After receiving a bizarre promotion, you've been placed in charge of Antiphon's new idol group, STΔRLIVHT. With this first meeting, a new story begins...*
>
>

# Story

The story of NOISZ STΔRLIVHT begins with the player being prompted to listen to the beat of their heart, and calibrate input timings with the heart on the screen.

An unknown user is registered with a new NOISZ/RS, which asks them their wish, to which the response is that they want to be a hero; the user is revealed to be Grace Kamenashi.

Grace opens her eyes to find a Noise Beast in front of her, and strengthening her resolve to protect her friends, the tutorial begins, teaching the player the mechanics of the game to a shortened version of First Star.

Grace dispatches the Noise Beast, and Beyond commends her on her potential, though Grace faints from exhaustion shortly afterwards to Sera's shock.

An unknown speaker comments on these events, stating the recollection was miscalibrated and "undershot". Another unknown speaker muses on the nature of the idea of a "perfect" piece of music, and resolves to find it.

In the next scene Producer, formerly a new accountant at Antiphon, promoted to producer, wakes up for their first day of work managing STΔRLIVHT, an idol group formed as part of Antiphon's new entertainment venture. She makes her way to the office, and meets the members of STΔRLIVHT, encountering Grace first; the player is given an opportunity to input the producer's name. Sera greets Producer shortly afterwards, followed by Hakuno, then Sumire.

Sera and Producer get off to a rocky start, with Sera gently asserting that she knows best for STΔRLIVHT, though the two come to an agreement eventually, with Producer deciding to let the group do whatever they want, with things going smoothly to the group afterwards, right up until their debut performance at the Budo Garden.

Blood

## Song Info

 **Rate:** Normal | **Verses:** 3 | **Boss:** Marziale | **Length:** 3:47

*Base Pattern by k//eternal*

*Character by Angelina Chiong*

## Story Context

In Story A, Karin notices something is off in the castle's throne room. She rushes ahead and finds the same cracks in space that were in the human world. Time appears to slow to a crawl, and in that frozen space, a massive bat hanging from the ceiling swoops down and attacks the main character.

In Story C, once the main character and the Noise Beasts they met arrive at the castle, they notice blue cracks in space. A corrupted Marziale attacks them.

## Gimmicks

Lasers in the shape of a cross often mark the beginning and end of patterns. The song features an abundance of kunai-shaped bullets and blue bullets. There are sections where your ability to gain Combo from shooting is gone. Kunai bullets rise up from the bottom of the field.

## Strategies

Prioritize keeping lives over dealing damage. The high number of blue bullets allows for high Combo, and by the end of V3, so long as you haven't taken damage, you should be able to achieve an AA-Rank.

## Flavor Text

**Beyond**: Oh no, blood is really scary... Please be careful around bladed objects! Especially ones that pop out of the floor!

**Arietta**: This isn't so bad if you listen for cues and dodge carefully. Just be glad you're armed with the NOISZ instead of five big buttons, okay?

**Stornel**: Precise and well-timed movement will be necessary here. A balanced set of abilities will suit you well.

## Trivia

* Arietta's flavor text in Free Mode is in reference to the control scheme of Neon FM, another rhythm game Blood has appeared in.
