I'll add what I can when I can. Since I can't read Japanese, its hard for me to
provide useful information. But I can still update the item guide and such.

File Started. There may only be one or two more updates to this.

I'll go in order of when things come to you:

Card Combinations:
---------------------

Dust cards - regular ones
Royal cards - golden ones
Symbol cards - gray ones
Ring cards - ones with rings

Star Dust: 10+ of any Dust card (100+ cusp)
Ring: 5+ rings of any type (100+ cusp)
Platinum: 3 Platinum rings (600 cusp)
Jewelry: 3 Golden rings with jewels in them (600 cusp)
Chart: 5+ Symbol cards (100+ cusp)
Tri-Horn: 3 Symbol animals with Golden Horns (600 cusp)
Trine: 3 Royal women (Virgo, Pisces, Aquarius; Gemini may replace Pisces or
Aquarius; 600 cusp)
Semi-Square: 4 Royal Cards (800 cusp)
Quintile: 5 Royal cards (I think this is the best you can get) (1500 cusp)

The intro movie gives a very good explanation of exactly how to get each
combination.

---------------------
Everything Else:
---------------------

You are the bottom name on the right when playing the game.
In the game, you will start off fighting weak opponents and they will get more
hits as you go on.
When you are only going against 3 or 400 cusp, I recommend going for the Star
Dust.
After you beat a person, 1-3 CG pics will open up. You will fight each person 3
times, with them getting stronger each time.
At the beginning, certain card abilities will be turned off. As you progress (I
think by the third person) they will be turned on. You can tell it is off by
looking at the card and seeing that it is duller than normal.
Beat the Extra Battle for a CG and the credits. Also, during the extra battle,
when one person loses hits, the other person gains them.
"Attack" will end the battle and you will gain that amount of cusp, but
"Charge" will allow you to accumulate more.  If you do not accumulate more, or
if the game "Attacks" first, then you gain no cusp. Keep this in mind. Don't
Charge a Trine or Semi-Square because its good enough.

If you have anything to add to this faq, or if you know where I can get
information on this game (english or japanese, I just run the japanese through
a shoddy translator to get the gist of it), send it to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
I'll credit you down here too.
