Fixed an issue where key input effects from a previous session remained on screen if a RETRY was triggered while a key was being held down. Fixed an issue where DB 's Live2D model would appear with the "MISS" animation still active if the session was restarted immediately after a [MISS] judgment.

Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue where certain UI elements in the 'Radio' Device Skin appeared misaligned.
When multiple scrolling texts are displayed within a single UI element, they will now sync to scroll at the same timing.
- Example: In the 'Play info widget' on the gameplay screen, if both the Song Title and Artist Name are long, their scroll effects will now trigger simultaneously.
  - When playing 〈MEGALOVANIA (Camellia Remix)〉, you will see the Song Title ([c]MEGALOVANIA (Camellia Remix)[/c]) and Artist Name ([c]Toby Fox (Remixed by Camellia)[/c]) scroll in perfect sync.
Fixed an issue where DB's Live2D motion displayed abnormally when switching pages using the [Space] key on the Result screen.
Fixed an issue where the mouse interaction area for the [P.A.T.C.H.] icon (top-right of the screen) did not match the actual visual icon area.
Fixed an issue where the Sound Effect setting titles ([c]BASS BOOST[/c], [c]TREBLE BOOST[/c], [c]LIVE MODE[/c]) in the [OPTION] menu appeared blurry on PAUSE screen.
Fixed an issue in the English language setting where the button text for unobtained voices in the [VOICE CHANGE] menu exceeded the UI area, and updated the text for clarity:
- (Before) [c]NOT ACQUIRED[/c] → (After) [c]NOT OWNED[/c]
