There are 2 versions of the second loop, Omote (Open) and Ura (Hidden). If either loop is qualified, player will be asked at the end of first loop whether or not to play the second loop. (Highlighted default option is YES.) If qualified for both, player will be prompted for
Ura second loop. Co-op 2 Player games cannot enter the second loop.
Both second loops are harder versions of the first loop, with the Ura route being the harder of the two.
