The undodgable stars and the bullets with stupid hitboxes?
Dodgeable from the side. I'm going to probably experiment on this (more) when I get everything else done. What agitates me even more is the attack where Mima sends out the orbs, which then suddenly break away and move very quickly. Still, SoEW isn't that bad.
UFO is severely overrated. Even though it may be legitimately difficult, it still gives you a crapton of resources to use for a 1cc. That's all shot types. You just need to use a strategy for UFO chaining. Or "man it up" and run through perfectly; your call.
SA is overrated, and more or less the stages are just a memorization fest. Bosses and SCs are a different story, and unlike the previous games or UFO, you can't bomb spam your way through them.

PoFV is easy enough if you know what to do. PoDD is... eh. I really don't know. Trying to score in that game will most likely end up with you being on the bad end of the spam, and there's little gain from scoring (2 extra lives only, compared to PoFV's).
PCB and IN seem to be tame enough. MoF's bombs are too good; and too common if you know when and where to bomb.
I don't play EoSD enough to warrant me giving a decent judgment on its difficulty.
LLS and MS have a few quirks that I won't bother putting out.
Overall, UFO is the hardest if you
don't want to can't bomb or mass lives. However, for 1cc I would have to say... PoDD.
