Speaking of characters, am I the only one who finds it weird that there are no seperate mid-boss characters so far? Seiren, Ringo, and Doremy are both the midboss and the bosses of their stages, which is a little unusual given the past of previous games first 3 stages.
EoSD: Daiyousei in Stage 2
PCB: Cirno in Stage 1
IN: Okay, you got me here. (Inb4 lunar conspiracy)
MoF: Shizuha Aki in stage 1
SA: Kisume in Stage 1
UFO: Okay, you got me here again.
TD: Nameless spirit in Stage 1, Kogasa in Stage 3
DDC: Cirno (Again) in Stage 1
So, not as unknown as I thought.... maybe it's a pattern of every three games, no new midboss characters?
