Hello everyone. Time for another guide. This event is the Secret Magic event. As always, this is not the only way to beat the DZs. You are welcome to comment, discuss and suggest your own strategies in here. In order to access the Danger Zone you'll need to defeat Area 1 and Area 2 of the current event. Each stage costs 50 Stamina, so be careful with your team choice. Before we begin, I want to warn you that this Danger Zone might as well be the hardest DZ I've ever done in this game. With that said you'll need to have a lot of good Eromons in almost every attribute to even have a chance here.
Stage 1: Mink Extreme[]
First stage we'll go with an all Ruby team. All Eromons were at level 70 and had their original moves.
- Miyabi (Great Fox Spirit version): Ruby Nuker & Stun. Replaceable by any other Eromon with a stun
- Galette (Otaku Demon version): Ruby AoE nuker & Attack buffer. Replaceable by any other strong Ruby with a nuke.
- Chiyono: Ruby AoE nuker & Defense debuffer. Replaceable by any other strong Ruby.
- Kurou : Ruby AoE nuker & Attack debuffer. Replaceable by any other strong Ruby.
- Galette: Emerald Attack Buffer. Replaceable by any other good attack buffer.
- Asahi Tosaka: Ruby Attack Buffer. Replaceable by any other good attack buffer.
- Jupiter: Sub #1 Best MP pool in the game. If you don't have, use your Eromons with the highest MP.
- Nopia: Sub #2 My second highest MP pool in the game.
In order to be safe don't forget to stock up on Healing Gummies LVL 3 & Attack Down Gummies LVL 3.
Very easy stage with the right Eromons. You don't even need to use a healer if you have enough attack buffers.
Personal estimated difficulty: 2/10
For this and every other wave make sure to take care of Sago first, because her attacks hurt a lot. A lot. You'll receive quite some damage even with a full ruby team. Use your Healing Gummies whenever you are in danger. Sago also nukes the front line while buffing her speed.
During this wave it'd be a good idea to buff your attack once. The Akos are easy to bring down but they are really fast.
Same as with the first wave, but it will be much easier since you'll have the attack buffs ready.
Wave 3: Sago Mao & Karen
Quickly take care of Sago and focus on Karen. If you remember her, you'll know that she buffs her attack for 5 turns before one shotting your entire team. Thankfully she can be stunned which can give you quite the huge lead in bringing her down.
Since the previous wave took long enough, you should re-apply your buffs while also keeping enough MP for the last wave.
Wave 5: Mink
Nuke the little shit with everything you have. Chances are she won't be able to get her first turn. She starts by debuffing your defense but that's all she really did for me.

Stage 2: Nabiki Kunishige Extreme[]
This stage required Emeralds with a few Topazes. All Eromons were at level 70 and had their original moves, except from Rivet who was given an attack buff move and Erinyan who was at level 63.
- Hanao Takahashi: Topaz AoE nuker & Attack buffer. Replaceable by any other strong Topaz.
- Nowa Mabuki: Emerald AoE nuker & Attack buffer. Replaceable by any other strong Emerald.
- Rivet: Topaz Attack Buffer. Replaceable by any other good attack buffer.
- Hanmi Sodenashi : Emerald AoE nuker & Attack debuffer. Replaceable by any other strong Emerald.
- Erinyan: Emerald healer + speed buffer. She's one of a kind, but you should bring your best healer if you don't have her.
- Yamaashi Shoko: Emerald Attack Buffer. Replaceable by any good attack buffers.
- Jupiter: Sub #1 Best MP pool in the game. If you don't have, use your Eromons with the highest MP.
- Nopia: Sub #2 My second highest MP pool in the game.
In order to be safe don't forget to stock up on Healing Gummies LVL 3 & Attack Down Gummies LVL 3.
Still an easy stage but it can be annoying. Nothing that can't be dealt with though if you have enough AoEs. You'd better.
Personal estimated difficulty: 2/10
Wave 1: Liselotte x3
This is just a normal wave, the Liselottes will be attacking you a lot, so try to distribute the damage while taking them down slowly. If you have Erinyan, it'd be a good idea to heal near the end of this wave along with applying an attack buff. If you don't, just attack buff and heal with gummies.
Wave 2: Liselotte x2 & Xiaoyan
The Liselottes are the same, but from now and on the Xiaoyans are of interest. I haven't found out what triggers her, but during her first turn she will suicide and debuff your attack to 3 digit numbers. If that happens, you'll need a lot of time to complete the stage. So you want to focus on her first and if you have to use nukes to bring her down fast. If those nukes have attack buff, then all the better. I had to deal with her first before she reached her first turn.
Wave 3: Liselotte & Xiaoyan x2
Same as the last wave but the Xiaoyans are now two. I hope you have an AoE ready.
Wave 4: Xiaoyan x3
Now all 3 enemies are Xiaoyans. Use another AoE nuke to make short work of them. Note that you can still complete the stage even if you don't have AoE nuke Eromons, it'll just take longer (see the video for reference).
Wave 5: Nabiki Kunishige
There's no real strategy other than to go all out. Use whatever remaining MP you have for nukes and you'll bring her down in time. Nabiki follows the same pattern as in the Event Area 2 stages, starting with a speed debuff, attack buff and then a four target nukes. Afterwards she nukes one Eromon at a time or use normal attacks.
Video by Alex S S. Alex did not take care of the Xiaoyans in time so this took a lot of time.

Stage 3: A Fairy's Potential[]
Ok I have a few words to say about this stage. It's hard. Really hard. So hard I wasted 300 stamina on it until I found out the proper strategy. It's also the first time that I had to use Tomes to give an extra boost to my Eromons. So all of my Eromons had the MP Saving level 2 along with either a Moves Resistance level 2 tome or an Emerald Resistance. For this stage if you want to pass it you need to have really good Eromons and use some Tomes on them. You have been warned. The Eromons I chose may or may not be replaceable by other Eromons in the same way for the strategy I followed. For example you won't find a Ruby attack buffer as good as Asahi Tosaka in this attribute. She's a Zodiac and broken enough as she is.
- Kurou: Ruby AoE nuker & Attack debuffer. Replaceable by any other strong Ruby with a nuke.
- Galette (Otaku Demon version): Ruby AoE nuker & Attack buffer. Replaceable by any other strong Ruby with a nuke.
- Chiyono: Ruby AoE nuker & Defense debuffer. Replaceable by any other strong Ruby.
- Iroha Uzuki : Ruby healer. Her healing move power is at 1,650. Replaceable by any other decent healer.
- Hitomi Otsuka: Ruby Speed buffer. Replaceable by any other strong speed buffer.
- Asahi Tosaka: Ruby Attack Buffer. Replaceable by any other good attack buffer.
- Jupiter: Sub #1 Best MP pool in the game. If you don't have, use your Eromons with the highest MP.
- Nopia: Sub #2 My second highest MP pool in the game.

Personal estimated difficulty: 10/10 (it can't go to 11)
Wave 1: Mink
She begins by buffing her speed up to 585. She will also debuff your defence while AoE nuking your team every two turns. You'll get so much damage, you'll HAVE to use two Healing Gummies here to survive. You can't do much here until your moves are charged. When they do, use an attack buff and keep attacking her. If your HP is in a bad shape, use your healer too. IMPORTANT: Before you enter the next wave, make sure you have at least one Eromon that is ready to attack in the front line.
NOTE: This is a rule for every wave here. NEVER enter the next wave with any of your Eromons' HP to flashing red. Every wave except from the last one begins with an AoE nuke and combined with the defense debuff, your Eromon(s) will die.
Wave 2: Mink
This Mink begins with an AoE nuke + stun for everyone for 3. Have your mouse ready at the Eromon that has her attack gauge meter full and quickly tap it to free her and immediatelly attack to keep your combo high. Then continue by freeing the rest of your Eromons. The Minks in this and the next two waves follow the same pattern as the Mink in wave 1, but have increasingly more damage. Use your third healing gummy in this wave.
Wave 3: Mink
This one starts with a nuke and poison. If your attack buff is almost out, apply it again. This is a really good place to use your speed buff. If you have Hitomi, your Eromons will be able to keep up with Mink and you'll probably be able to take her down before she uses a second AoE attack. Use another healing gummy in this wave and your healer if you have to.
Wave 4: Mink
This one nukes and speed debuffs. This is a really crucial point as you'll have to plan for the last wave. You need to have enough MP for at least two nukes in the last wave and if you have attack buffs then all the best. For this wave just heal and try to take her down quickly. Because of the speed debuff, you'll be slower but thanks to the speed buff from the last wave, you'll be able to make it. Somehow. Use your last healing gummy here.
Now I hope you have saved enough MP for this part. The Liselottes must be dealt with first as they heal Mink for a lot. Use two AoE nukes and if it's not enough, keep attacking them until they fall down. Mink will buff her attack in the first turn, make a normal attack and then AoE nuke your team. If you manage to survive this nuke, then you have this in the bag. Congratulations!!

Stage 4: Magic Heart[]
For the last stage go with an Emerald + Topaz team. Again the same stuff from stage 3 apply here. It's insanely hard. So hard that the first person that gave proof to Nutaku staff of completing the stage would get any Eromon he wanted (true story, lucky bastard got Hametena). The team composition is extremely strict here, even more than the last one. And again Tomes needed to be used in order to make it. Move/Topaz Resistance and MP Saving level 2. And this stage will take a LOT of time to complete.
- Hanao Takahashi: Topaz AoE nuker & Attack buffer. Replaceable by any other strong Topaz nuke. The combo of nuke and attack up is priceless in this stage.
- Nowa Mabuki: Emerald AoE nuker & Attack buffer. Replaceable by any other strong Emerald nuke. The combo of nuke and attack up is priceless in this stage.
- Rivet: Topaz Attack Buffer. Replaceable by any other good attack buffer.
- Mitsuko Ushiyama : Sapphire Attack Buffer. Replaceable by other Zodiac attack buffers. Yeah I know, these Zodiacs are broken and chances are you haven't any, so in the case just bring your strongest attack buffer.
- Izanai (Elegant Fox version): Topaz Nuker & Stun. Replaceable by Kiritani Yukina (New Style version). You don't have any of these? Good luck. Then just bring whatever strong Topaz or Emerald eromon you have.
- Erinyan: Emerald healer + speed buffer. She's one of a kind, but you should bring your best healer if you don't have her (and pray that she'll be enough).
- Jupiter: Sub #1 Best MP pool in the game. If you don't have, use your Eromons with the highest MP.
- Nopia: Sub #2 My second highest MP pool in the game.
In order to be safe don't forget to stock up on Healing Gummies LVL 3 & Attack Down Gummies LVL 3.
This stage is hell. If you want to get past this one, follow the guide closely. Just follow it!
Personal estimated difficulty: 10/10 (it can't go to 11)
Wave 1: Liselotte x2 & Kirino Fujita
Ok in this wave start hitting Kirino. You'll notice that the Liselottes are healing 10k HP each, while buffing their attack and removing debuffs... and while Kirino heals herself for 20k HP. That's tough right? Keep hitting her and the only thing you can do really is build up your combo until your moves are charged. When they are, use two attack buffs and use Izanai or your stunner to stun Kirino. That will give you enough time to take her down. I had to use two Healing Gummies in this stage along with Erinyan and because Kirino was about to take me down, I had to use an AoE nuke on top of it. So by the end of this wave I was left with 1,8k MP left and a combo of 52.
Wave 2: Liselotte x2 & Seika Sasahara
Your team will still have the attack buff, so focus on Seika and use Izanai yet again to stun her. I managed to take her down really fast here. This is a really important step right now. Don't kill the Liselottes. Keep farming them and build up your combo. Don't use any healing gummies, just keep hitting the Liselottes, often switching targets to give them time to heal each other.
Wave 3: Liselotte x2 & Misaki Shibata
Same strategy as in wave 2, Misaki will have additional HP, so use an AoE nuke along with your stun to take her down fast. I wasn't, so she attacked the front line with a nuke. Rivet being a Topaz received 2,2k damage. Afterwards heal with your healer and build up combo again.
Wave 4: Liselotte x2 & Miyuu Aota
Same things while focusing on Miyuu. She has a LOT of HP, so she managed to hit me once with a normal attack. Still she hit a Topaz and dealt 2,2k damage.
In this wave you want to stay here for as long as it takes. Look at my combo count at the end of the stage. I stayed here for so long that my MP was full and all of my Eromons had almost full HP. Before the wave ended I applied my two attack up buffs, I healed one last time with Erinyan and entered the last wave.
Wave 5: Liselotte x2 & Nabiki Kunishige
Okay, you SHOULD have the attack buffs from last wave along with the speed buff (if you have Erinyan). Nabiki will begin by casting Attribute resistance buffs on her. This depends on the number of different attributes you have in your team, and then the attribute(s) with the most Eromons will get a resistance buff on Nabiki. For example I had 3 attributes (3 Topaz, 2 Emeralds, 1 Sapphire), Nabiki casted Topaz and Emerald resistance.
So start by casting your two AoE nukes (first the one that has attack buff, if any). You don't have to worry about the Liselottes, since they'll be blown away by the nukes. Then use your stunner. Nabiki CANNOT be stunned, but the extra damage helps. In her first turn she will use a random Topaz nuke that hits 4 random targets. Let me explain how heavy damage that inflicted. Erinyan that had Move Resistance and an Attribute advantage took 2,2k of damage. Izanai that also had Moves Resistance took 4,4k damage. Rivet with no Moves Resistance took 4,9k damage. Mitsuko with an attribute disadvantage and Topaz Resistance took 5,5k damage. Yeah, go figure. But Mitusuko was almost full HP and she is the highest HP Eromon in the game and she has an OP as hell attack buff along with an MP Saving level 2 tome, so you see why I took her in. If you can help it, don't bring any Sapphires here.
Just keep attacking her. After her nuke I used my remaining 3 gummies at once. Her second nuke is again four random target but this one has a Ruby attribute. The final HP of my Eromons can be seen below after this attack. It was super close. If she gets a third round, then you are toast, some Eromons WILL die.
