Gameplay Changes
Very few sizable changes have been made to the formula in FANTASIA; it's still very much the same. CHALLENGE and SUPER CHALLENGE modes are now combined in NORMAL mode, ENJOY mode has been renamed to EASY mode (more accurate to what that mode entails), ojamas are the last thing you set before the song starts, and NORMAL mode now has COOLS on (unlike EASY mode.)
The only real new feature (outside of the songs and whatnot) in pop'n music FANTASIA is the highlight pop-kuns. After hitting them, the player earns a bonus for getting no misses. They don't provide any drastic change to the gameplay, but they add another means of racking up points.
