wise man say: "he who clear well of all blocks fail horribly and restart. curse go away after 13 restart."
I hate bravos, because when I do them I always forget about the actual reward for doing it. The fireworks and the "BRAVO!" flashing up on the screen completely disorientate me and I screw up.
And they're quite good for ST records in the TGM series if I may add, though I think the rewards are a little undeserving. Not to mention the crazy 7 line garbage they send in TOJ.
I still reckon four times the points is better on TGM1, at least until you start wrestling with Gm rank and times come into it more.
