Strategy

The 5-unit restriction can drastically increase the difficulty, but it remains a relatively easy endurance battle if played very well.

Lineup: Cap'n Ahab, Moby Dick, Brave Cutter, Cyberpunk Cat 48, Can Can Cat 50+7, Roe Cat 40, Pizza Cat 50, Bullet Train Cat 50

Cannon: Breakerblast

Items: Rich Cat and Sniper the Cat

Battle: At the start, spawn a Bullet Train as soon as possible to begin chipping at Okame and the Ginger Snaches. Spawn it occasionally for money as well, similarly to its use in I'll Be Bug. Use Roe to stall Okame and lower her attack damage, and use Cyberpunk to slow her. When the waves of Gory Blacks begin, use Pizza Cat to cripple them (Note that even with a Lv.52 Pizza Cat, it's still quite difficult to keep your Roe's alive while killing them quickly enough). Make sure to keep your backline of Cyberpunks alive or else Okame will push hard and likely cost you your run. After stalling through the waves of Gory Black, and as long Okame isn't attacking your base, your win should be guaranteed.

Trivia

• The Japanese name of this stage, Gokuraku Edo (獄楽穢土), makes an untranslatable pun with the word gokuraku (極楽, meaning paradise, or the Pure Land in Buddhism). Normally it would be spelled 極楽, but here it's 獄楽 - the first kanji is replaced by one meaning "prison". The word edo (穢土) refers to the opposite of the Pure Land, the land of the living or "Impure Land".
  • This pun is also used in The Pure Land's Japanese name, which is nearly identical except that it says jōdo (浄土, pure land) instead of edo.
