A Musical Challenge

In this world, you continue the story by clearing musical challenges. Here's what you need to know about Sebastian's tutorial session:

• Press when the gauge is about to run out (yellow section) to get a high score (Excellent).
• If you press while the gauge is in the orange section, it will still register as successful (Good).
• Pressing too quickly or not pressing it at all will result in a low score (Bad).
• If you experience an audio delay compared to the prompt you see on-screen, consider trying to time your button prompts using the visual only and without the song audio.
• Press the button to quit during a song. If you press this button, you will NOT be able to continue your current attempt and must select either Retry or Quit.

You must get at least one EXCELLENT or GOOD rating from the five available attempts in order to clear the tutorial; if you fail, you can Talk to Sebastian to try again. After clearing the tutorial, Sora will receive the Undersea Kingdom Map. When you are ready to take part in the musical, Talk to Sebastian and select "Sure, I'll give it a try!"
