so, yagawa games
why do people mention suicides like it's something different from just dying? isn't playing normally and just dying on your own just as effective for rank management?
can you go back rank levels? like say if your rank 11 would dying and bombing over and over eventually get you back to rank 10 or will it just reset the timer?

You want to suicide at specific times to control rank for the harder patterns, as well as just before an extend to keep the rank as low as possible.

This explains the Garegga rank system well, although it works a bit differently across all the Yagawa games.

oh wait i get it, dying repeatedly in a short time will quickly increase the timer
my first death added 7,000 second 10,000 and third 20,000
so the key is suiciding repeatedly

I'm mostly playing ibara and pink sweets because I can't see the rank in garegga outside the saturn version.
Did anyone EVER 1cc pink sweets? I keep reading it's impossible.

Its possible (though the game is extremely difficult without it) There is a glitch in the arcade version that allows a player to get infinite lives, which is essential for maximum scoring.
