= Default Songs =

= BUZRA ARTS =

BUZRA is a portmanteau of "(SINO)BUZ" and "Vajra". The songs are related to the seven SINOBUZ elements: fire, water, wood, metal, earth, brightness, and darkness. New BUZRA ARTS songs appeared as follows:

The sum of difficulty levels, rank, and clear type are the main requirements to unlock a BUZRA ARTS song for EXTRA STAGE. All the charts are playable from the first day of a BUZRA ARTS song's appearance. RANDOM cannot be used. Once the condition is fulfilled, the graphics in the EXTRA STAGE will change to BUZRA ARTS, with a special background music played during the music selection screen. The conditions to access BUZRA ARTS change on the phase it is in:

'''LAST ARTS update:''' From October 5th, 2017, BUZRA ARTS song charts can be unlocked by clearing them once (ASSISTED EASY, as of October 26th, 2017, works). Doing so also nets you a "Buzra Icon" related to the event songs, as well as Tran Medals. Obtaining all these icons on a specified difficulty will unlock the event's secret final song on that same difficulty as a ONE MORE EXTRA STAGE. Clearing it unlocks the chart for regular play.  

When the ONE MORE EXTRA STAGE is accessed, all the Buzra Icons are lost and must be obtained again. You can get them by clearing the BUZRA ARTS songs again outside of EXTRA STAGE.

= KOUJYO SINOBUZ DEN (攻城シノバズ伝) =

''攻城シノバズ伝'' (KOUJYO SINOBUZ DEN) is beatmania IIDX 24 SINOBUZ's first unlock event. It started on November 17th, 2016, and ended on April 16th, 2017. It can only be played by one person only. eAMUSEMENT is required to start the event.

The objective of KOUJYO SINOBUZ DEN is to conquer castles from enemies. To do so, you must obtain Onigiri. Playing a song gives you Onigiri points. The amount of points depend on which mode you are playing:

Ninjutsu cannot be used in the final castle.

Onigiri points obtained are lost when the player enters another castle. Events in the castles appear in specific points. The first castle must be cleared before you can access the other castles. The first four castles ''must'' be cleared for you to access the final one.

Bronze Tran medals are obtained when you reach the first castle, when you reach 50% and 100% exploration rate for each castle, when you clear one event, and when you clear five events. Silver Tran Medals are obtained after clearing 10, 15, 25, 35, 50, 65 and 80 events, respectively. Gold Tran Medals are obtained after clearing 100 events and defeating castle bosses.

= Ninnin shichikenden (忍々七鍵伝) =

'Ninnin shichikenden'' (忍々七鍵伝) is beatmania IIDX 24 SINOBUZ's second umlock event, which started on April 20th, 2017 and ended on July 2nd, 2018. The event appears in one player only. eAMUSEMENT is required to play the event. Ninnin shichikenden can only be selected in STANDARD ''only''.

Before the beginning of any song in STANDARD, you will see a folder labeled Ninnin '''忍々七鍵伝'''. Accessing it takes you to the event itself (you cannot return to the regular song selection screen for the stage). What mode you played on carries over to the folder; difficulty levels are lifted. Upon entering the folder, players then choose a school, then a Dojo (流派) inside the school to unlock the song which represents that Dojo. Each Dojo is themed (e.g. a Scratch Dojo) and contains specific songs that fit the Dojo theme (i.e., the Scratch Dojo contains scratch-intensive songs).

After playing a song from a Dojo, players will move to another screen, where a seven-key keyboard is shown with different DJ ranks on each key, enemy ninjas appearing on each key. At this point, the player is given the option to raise any key rank corresponding to an active opponent to AAA (a key that is already at AAA can be chosen for this; if a choice is not made, one is randomly chosen). Players will then hurt the ninjas, the damage being directly proportional to the key's DJ rank. (If three Mystery Scrolls are used, all keys with a rank less than AA will be boosted to AA.) Defeating enemies will give the player the award the enemy is holding if they have one. Enemies may hold BUZZ (1000 BUZZ), NORMAL/HYPER charts, and a special item to increase the 忍気 meter by a third. The ANOTHER chart will only be awarded once all seven enemies have been defeated.

Once the attack is finished, the player will return to STANDARD play for the rest of the credit (unless you're on the final/EXTRA stage).
