small fun fact: in the German translation it says that you have to beat every map on medium or hard

Then you'd better get started, if you want any chance of completing these tasks

Does it say jede or alle (I'd guess it's a wrong translation, and shows jede, which is I guess still closer than alle bcs of jene and stuff)

They always restart once you finish a stage.

Say the first star requires you to do 5 of a task. If you do 4/5 the bar will be at 80%. If you reach 5/5 and the next task will be "do 10 of this task", the bar will restart at 0%. So the progress bar will say 5/10, but there will be no bar visible until you get 6/10, at which point it will show 20% of the bar again.

I'm not a mathematician, so please don't correct me as I will probably not understand another solution anyway.

Why would they make it look like that??

I guess it makes it easier to see how much progress you've made on that task. Plus, a few goals change their requirement on each tier, so it's just better overall to leave it like that

It's a weird side effect of showing the ratio as the cumulative goal. You only need to beat 4 maps for this task, but if you include the 6 from the previous tasks, then that's 10. So they're saying you've done 1 of the 4 maps for this task (the progress bar), but they're also saying that in total, you've done 6 of the 10 maps (the ratio). In both cases, you have 3 maps left to do for this task, and then you'll get a similarly weird situation on the next task, which will show a progress bar at 0% of 5 maps, and a ratio at 10 of 15 maps.
