No. The non-card is static, and the inner shots are radially symmetric with each other. The objective is to stand at a distance such that you're inside the outer ring, and in a gap in the inner one. The idea is that, since the inner ring is radially symmetric, and they pass through the ring's center point, the gap when the spawn is the same as the gap when they leave.

I chose Reimu for the hitbox, and my success rate is...well, see for yourself.
moozooh:
Whoa. That looks too hard to be feasible, unless a good positioning marker is found. Nice find, though!
Garlyle:
lgb, a minor error - you have my ~153 mil MarisaA Normal run listed as a MarisaB. Just thought I'd point that out.
moozooh:
Reprise just posted a new Marisa-A run on Easy, achieving 1.56 billion. How? By discovering what is probably the greatest scoring trick in the game: an insane grazing safespot inside Unzan's eye, which can be used easily by every character on most likely every difficulty. That's some public service right there!
Ironically, Sanae-B (and, to a lesser extent, Reimu-B) benefits from it the least due to her proximity-based bomb. An odd way to restore balance, but it seems like every character can go over 1.5 billion on Easy without doing anything particularly dangerous now, as long as the UFO route is adhered to. (That being said, Reprise still didn't use either of the improvements I posted above, hehe.) Though if someone finds the way to abuse this safespot effectively with Sanae-B (in other words, without ending the spellcard in a single bomb discharge), we'll probably see a 1.7 billion Easy replay someday.
Hawk:
Interesting. While I wasn't aware there was an actual safespot there, I've been experimenting with grazing with MarisaA on stage 3. With regards to the final card, much, much more graze can be obtained by moving slightly up during Master Spark. The optimal distance seems to be about 2 or 3 hitboxes. I was able to obtain 10.5k graze in a stage 3 practice run using this technique. This is also why I think MarisaA will eventually triumph over SanaeB. The graze hitbox, plus Master Spark grazing, seems to hold an incredible amount of untapping potential.
