How to Defeat Velvet Chair Girl

The battle against Velvet Chair Girls sees you play musical chairs together with her and a few other individuals. The battle consists of three different rounds, and in the final round, it will be you against the boss. To win these three rounds, all you need to do is hit the buttons shown on the screen when the metronome is yellow to gain a speed boost, making sure you do not miss the button when the music stops. If this happens, the alien Ohma who accompanies the boss will take you out, forcing you to restart from the beginning of the round you have been defeated in.

As rounds pass, the metronome will become faster, and the button selection will include pretty much every button on the controller by the third round, making things a little more difficult. Feel the rhythm, focus on the screen and you should dethrone Velvet Chair Girl with ease.
