We're on a sea-faring vessel of some kind, cresting waves of Rage.
So Round 5 is when the difficulty takes a bit of a spike, as you'll be dealing with not only mini-bosses for the first time but also with large groups of enemies. The mini-boss is a Wrestler from Round 3 who packs pretty much the same power as the bosses from that stage, so knowing when he's going to show up really helps.
There's also a special type of Clown that also makes an appearance, who bounces around and can throw things without warning. They don't juggle anything so they can't knock you down on contact but they're still quite dangerous, especially in the high numbers they spawn in just before this Round's boss fight.
And on that note, let's talk about the boss fight for Round 5. Two sprite-swaps of Blaze appear, one favoring to rush and use a Jump Kick while the other moves slower, evading attacks while attempting to execute a throw.
They can be difficult to hit if you try to take them in a straight fight due to their ability to evade attacks. Usually, you'd try and grab the jump kicker by moving to where she's going to land. For the thrower, you'll want to avoid slow jump kicks and punch at her to trigger her over-head evasion flip and then punch at where she'll land to knock her down. Once one of the Judo Sisters is down, the remaining boss will start to swap between both AI sets but the fight is much less dangerous with one KO'd.
