Oh , and quick side question . I hate missing spellcards , so I should probably ask someone familiar with the game . If you manually go into the spirit realm by pressing C , does that disqualify you from capturing the spellcard ? I ' m guessing yes hence why I haven ' t done so lol , but it ' d be nice to get confirmation . That actually depends . If you go into trance manually during the nonspell , you have up a few seconds before the title of the Spell Card reaches to the top . I generally estimate the point the card will be marked as an automatically fail would be about where the top half of the boss would be . There ' s a few exceptions like Futo ' s Saint Girl Oomonoimi ' s Dinner in terms of relying on that for a reference point since she ' s so low at the screen during the start of the card . Though I ' m not a huge fan of collecting the LifeBomb spirits in TD , I honestly have fallen in love with the game . It ' s lackluster to say the least . I think I ' ve memorize specifically the large fairies that don ' t have the sunflowers the ones that don ' t die as easily when you ' re at 1 . 00 power will have the lifebomb pieces you need . I believe the only exceptions are Stage 6 when the lifebomb pieces are dropped by pinkgreen tinted spirits respectively . Stage 4 and Stage 5 both have the large sunflower fairies drop some lifebomb pieces before Seiga and Tojiko ' s fight respectively .
