I've 1cc'd the game on lunatic and Larva's 2nd card still trips me up, don't feel bad.

Basically you're supposed to use it and zoom around trying to maximize your bullets erased. The idea is to erase enough bullets to give you back 1 or more levels. This will allow you to chain releases and with enough proficiency renders you more or less immortal for 80% of the run, to the point where you don't even need to maximize score gain since it's so safe. You can erase anything during the release but you're still vulnerable if you crash into enemy hitboxes so be careful with the bulkier fairies and bosses. If you get caught out with no release you can bomb, the only real challenge afterwards is getting through Okina's final.

I'm not sure how simple this is to pull off in normal though, hard and lunatic have higher bullet density which makes it easier to get levels per release. But I think this is the optimal way to use it. Trying to use it like the other subseasons just makes it feel like a weaker version of Winter or Summer. I had the same problem when doing my normal clear and having no idea what I was doing.
