Brain Atrophy is an old nine circles impossible level by the creator RezerdPrime. It was a remake and hyperbuff of an older level the creator made, called Dead Circles. It was added very high up on the ILL back in early 2021, and really there hasn't been much else happening since. There's been a couple WRs going from 12% in 2022, to 19% in 2023, to 22% in 2024, and 28% just 2 months ago by Tost youtube.com/watch?v=e7820X4lx4Q
Though people can definitely get to the drop, and into some of the wave parts, I doubt anyone ever will, as the drop has some very awkward and tight small-click corridors, which are genuinely pretty absurd. This level is unfortunately not super interesting deco wise, but the pre and postdrop are kinda cool. The level is also very short, but that's probably because of the incompleted song by NK.

![[Top 10?] - ANTARCTIC LIGHTS with Frame Windows Counter
Ah Antarctic Lights my beloved, the hardest upcoming nine circles level by the goat, declan. Original layout was made in 2020 by Skyjax, with declan decorating the level by himself, full showcase at the end of 2023. Our favorite Dane was the chosen verifier, Axinity. An Acheron victor, and verifier of Arctic Twice (AL 2x in a row), there werent many better candidates. Hed buff the level quite a lot and begun grinding it on and off throughout the past 2.5 years, racking up a total of 400k+ attempts on the level. His first progress was 49-100% in early 2024, with subsequent bests of 39-100%, 51, 63, 70, 25-100%, 73, 78, 90, and just hours before I made this video, 92%, dying to the 3f ship gap.
Axinity appears to have some wild verifier bias, saying its around Acheron difficulty, meanwhile playtesters say it is easily top 10 difficulty even with Society and Green Bullet rated. The frame window data is surprisingly nearly identical to Ultra Paracosm, which according to youngs6 as of today is likely harder than Every End. However as you hopefully know, frame window data isnt all that defines a levels difficulty.
Antarctic has some things that give it the upper hand, which include: much higher average CPS, awkward click patterns, more spread out difficulty (including a predrop with half the levels 3f timings), as well as being longer. That alone points to the level like a spot below Nullscapes, supported by nickname09s opinion which shares the same sentiment. So yeah, this thing is most definitely our next top 10, Axinitys consistent asf and I do expect this to be out by the next weekend. Definitely one of my favorite upcoming levels, decoration that fits an Arctic Lights remake just perfectly. Ive been hyped for a long time and its cool to get my hands on a copy, thanks declan for the opportunity, and goodluck to Axinity if youre seeing this!

![[Top 15?] - Dignity with Frame Windows Counter
Dignity is a solo upcoming top list demon by San Andreas, inspired partially by Knights of Thnnder. The creator scrapped a lot of parts and this took two years to finish, but it was finally done in August 2025. The level didnt have a verifier until January 2026, when Sevant picked it up stating it was meant to be around Tartarus difficulty. Well, that certainly didnt hold true as the level was buffed pretty immensely and is now around top 10-20 difficulty. Its quite deceiving in difficulty and actually mimicks actual Knights of Thunder, which doesnt have difficult individual clicks, but is high cps, flowy and difficult to sightread.
This level is basically that but on steroids, with decently difficult clicks all the way throughout coupled with the aforementioned high cps. Theres still a couple 3f clicks and other awkward sections, with the last click sometimes being 2f according to Sevant, so yeah thats brutal. Sevant started playing this soon after picking it up, and has been verifying since, now holding best runs of 64% and 43-100%, and even more impressive, 15-95%, done after this video. Overall its not my favorite upcoming level, but it definitely a cool achievement from Sevant, go check him out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wAxS2PWA2tA

![[Top 15?] - FUKOUNA GIRL with Frame Windows Counter
FUKOUNA GIRL is a (almost) solo extreme demon by a creator you might recognize, Skye. Shes made some awesome impossible levels in the past and now seems to have been doing some passions projects. That notion definitely applies here, as here we have 4 minutes of absolute raw deco and gameplay. The level feels very inspired by Teeth Fortress II, having similar spammy gameplay and deco to it, with hints of Angelicide around too. Its not for everyone, but I definitely dig it personally. As already mentioned, the level is very spammy in nature, so just like Angelicide, the frame window values are much lower than other levels in the estimated difficulty range. The spammy nature of the level alongside the length and kinda jank gameplay at times definitely more than makes up for the lack of high base gp difficulty. The exact difficulty is uncertain but Skye put top 15 on an old showcase, and top 10 in the full showcase description, but well see how it ends up. The verifier is cdjuliet, and she just recently started playing the level, with some runs like 10% already. Check her twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/cdjuliet_) out if youre interested in tuning in, this levels pretty ridiculous.
