:This mode serves as a skill-ranking system for beatmania IIDX players. Modeled after the Dan system for many martial arts schools, players are ranked from 7th Kyu (the initiate level; 5th Kyu on Double prior to copula) all the way through 10th Dan (the highest rank attainable). Each rank consists of a course of four songs (three on Double prior to copula), each rank being harder than the last. The highest rank a player can achieve can be considered that player's relative "skill level," and is a decent way to gauge player ability. In [[AC DistorteD|DistorteD]], an extra rank above 10th Dan was added, called Kaiden, that is designed to truly test a beatmania IIDX master's skills. A new rank was added in [[AC copula|copula]] called Chuuden, as a bridge between 10th Dan and Kaiden. Beginning in [[AC HEROIC VERSE|HEROIC VERSE]], players can challenge on replaying courses previously cleared, including those from the [[beatmania IIDX CLASSIC CLASS Dan Courses|previous games]], in a new sub-mode called 極 (previously called 永世段位 ''Eisei Class'') , exclusive to LIGHTNING MODEL cabinets. The alternate name for the mode is 試. | :This mode serves as a skill-ranking system for beatmania IIDX players.
