Ranking
At the end of each event, the player receives a letter-based ranking up to S based on the performance on three aspects of the event, each one individually ranked with zero to three stars. These stars are then added to a star counter in the Japanese version of the game.
Aime cards
The Japanese version of the game uses Aime cards to record progresses in the game and allow the results to be inserted in a national ranking. Both the obtained stars and medals are recorded. There are also Titles that can be won. Furthermore, these cards are needed to unlock specific characters and to participate in the bonus events.
