Dark Flare (Japanese: ダークフレア, Hepburn: Dākufurea?) [Japanese name: Kadomitsu in Darkness] is a boss from Dariusburst. It is a easier variant of Dark Helios and is unable to change into the Syvalion form. It is shaped after an Oarfish (Regalecus glesne).

Website Summary[]
For Dariusburst: Another Chronicle EX
An Oarfish-shaped Flagship. It was confirmed at the deepest part of the enemy group beyond the asteroid belt. It is speculated that this is an early production version of the Dark Flame series due to the incompleteness of the outfitting and differences from the flagship of the same type. As with the Flame type, the articulated unit fires the barrage of a normal or small laser cannon. Combination with a fin-released burst cannon is a threat, but the unit's durability is low and it is important to decide on a short-term decisive battle.

Appearance[]
Dark Flare is a mechanical oarfish battleship and a variant of Dark Helios. Its body is long and segmented, with dark metallic armor and red highlights. The head features large golden horns or claws, and the entire form gives a sense of unfinished, raw power. Unlike Dark Helios’ golden tones, Dark Flare has a darker, more industrial appearance, emphasizing heavy plating and exposed weapon mounts. Its design feels more experimental and aggressive.
