It might be just me, but some attacks are just too difficult for it to be for Stage 2 boss(es). (e.g. some attacks that cover the screen with bullets).
Please balance it more.
It would help a lot more to specify which attacks that are too difficult than just say "some attacks that cover the screen with bullets".
Otherwise, I might start making some attacks too easy

Playtested it. Kind of sucky at bullet hell, though, so can't judge well.
Anyways, first: Kohuhed, the water wolf.
First attack was pretty standard, and though the second part often catches me off guard, it's pretty obvious how to dodge that.
Second attack, however, was confusing as hell to dodge. Having the first spread be normal and the second be homing (with a weird homing style at that) is a bit much.
Third attack was easy - mostly an attention check.
Fourth and last one was moderate; I had trouble going through the bubble spray without dying, but after that it's pretty standard.
So, for this one, only the second attack was nasty, but nasty it really is.
Second: MrLRG, the line rider guy.
Oh dear, this one amped the difficulty.
First attack (Line Slider?) is rather hard to read and harder to dodge - I think this is what Garo was referring to.
Second attack with the reflecting lasers was deceptively hard to dodge as well - I'm not sure why, but it feels as if I was being walled constantly.
Third attack was standard bullet hell with a minor twist - fail to position correctly, and any attempt to fight only results in point-blank death.
Fourth and last attack, thankfully, is a breather: it's easy to see what is about to happen, and the side bullets couldn't make up for it.
Third and last: Connor, the badass.
Ironically, this one is the easiest.
First attack (Missile Barrage) was the most fun, frantically dodging and shooting down missiles homing in on me.
Second attack (Badass Sweep x2) looks to be hard, but is actually quite easy to dodge...
Same goes for third attack (Badass Slam x2).
Fourth attack, on the other hand, was deceptively tricky much like Kohuhed's first attack, but is dodged fairly similarly.
Fifth and final attack is more bulletspam. Kinda hoped for something creative here, though... also this one is the hardest in the group, but nowhere as hard as Kohu's or MrLRG's worst.
Anyways, long post short, Kohu's second attack, MrLRG's first and second attacks, and Connor's fifth attack needs a bit of balancing - otherwise, they're all good.
