EXTRA STAGE

The EXTRA STAGE system returns from the previous game, and works the same but with one difference: in order to unlock the (ONE MORE) EXTRA STAGE, you now have to clear a flashing 7 on ANOTHER with a AAA rating. Using the HARD gauge is no longer required.

As with 7th style, both songs are unlocked by default as of beat#2, and the special EXTRA STAGE is no longer available.
