Alien Enemies (エイリアン Eirian) are a type of Enemy Unit introduced in Chapter 1 of Into the Future. These light blue enemies are rather strong, generally don't give much money, and come in two varieties: Unstarred and Starred. They have a knack to cause status effects, from debuffs or buffs to themselves, making them ideal targets to be Cursed. Many enemies with this trait tend to act as backliners.
Aliens' health and damage are initially multiplied by either 700% or 1,600% depending on their subtype, making them EXTREMELY strong initially. This is especially the case when combined with the buffs in stages such as Queen's Coronation and Blue Impact, rendering them almost unbeatable unless the player has activated some of the anti-Alien crystal Treasures. Each 100% Treasure reduces this multiplier by 100% (66% reduces it by 66%, 33% by 33%, and so on).
Unstarred Aliens and Starred Aliens each have their own debuffing Treasures; Treasures debuffing one subtype will not debuff the other. For more information, see Anti-unstarred Alien Treasures and Anti-Starred Alien Treasures.
