EXTRA STAGE

In order to unlock the EXTRA STAGE, you must collect 5 Lucky Coins. In order to collect them, you must first pass a song with a high number of HOT or DELICIOUS judgements. When selecting the next song, one song will have a coin icon on its jacket, indicating there is a Lucky Coin to be found. When playing the song, a random note will contain the Lucky Coin; if hit it will be added to the pool of Lucky Coins on the bottom-right hand side of the screen, if not the coin will remain there, allowing you to try again. The number of coins collected persists between credits, so it is not necessary (or possible) to collect all five in one credit.

Once all five coins are collected and you clear the final stage, you will proceed to the EXTRA STAGE. The only song that can be played is One Minutes Kitchen Battle!, and you are given the option to select a character before playing, with each character having their own video. One Minutes Kitchen Battle! has only a single 9-button chart for all difficulties, however it cannot be failed.
