I finally beat Koishi again and this time I didn't cheese her last card. I died really stupidly on Youkai Polygraph, but I captured Embers of Love for the first time.  Now, maybe I can work on improving her.

Normal Clears: EoSD, PCB, IN, PoFV, MoF, SA, UFO, TD, DDC
Hard Clears: PoFV, SA, TD, DDC
Extra Clears: PoFV, MoF, SA, UFO, TD, DDC
Current touhou goal: Improve! ...1cc more Hard Modes

Finally got around to clearing IN normal with every team. I ended up having more fun with Youmu/Yuyuko than I thought I would.

Perfect Cherry Blossom No Miss No Bomb Lunatic 1cc!

Broke a few borders, so it isn't "Perfect", but it's still a major step for me! Next up on my agenda is to do a LNMNBNBB run!

Most of the cheesing was just so that I could have the run. Now I won't be so paranoid and can actually try and capture things if I wanted to improve this run. Sure, it's probably not that impressive compared to some of my other runs for that matter, and it may not live up to the standards nowadays, but I'm still happy with it.

Besides, this is just the prelude to the LNMNBNBB run that I'm aiming for. :V

I'm at a loss. I just played LLS on Hard and lost my last life simultaneously with Yuuka's explosion (the final stage Yuuka; not stage 5). And I got an ending, but I tapped the button to skip the text too fast to notice what ending I got. At the high score entry I got an "all" as you get when you clear the game, but I'm still not sure whether I just managed to 1cc LLS or not.

I'm at a loss. I just played MS on Hard and lost my last life simultaneously with Yuuka's explosion (the final stage Yuuka; not stage 5). And I got an ending, but I tapped the button to skip the text too fast to notice what ending I got. At the high score entry I got an "all" as you get when you clear the game, but I'm still not sure whether I just managed to 1cc MS or not.

you probably played LLS, not MS. and that you got an ending with the game over is normal in stage 6. I don't even know if it's the good or bad ending, but I think of it as the same as what happens when you game over to kaguya in IN. I am not sure ifthe game counts it as a clear, to be honest. double K.O happened once for me too when I was doing my first 1cc on lunatic

LLS doesn't count a stage 6 game over as a clear. It won't unlock Extra if you haven't already unlocked it with that shot type. Though it still displays "All" instead of "6" in the high score list for some reason.

Sometimes I wonder if LLS stage 6 was originally intended as a bonus, similar to IN's last spells, but was converted into being needed for a 1cc later... Stage 5 feels like it could be a final stage (no midboss, rings of doom, boss theme could be a final boss theme, that sort of thing), the stage 5/6 bosses are the same, and since LLS was the first Touhou game to have 6 stages the standard wasn't set at the time.

Megumi Yaobi Lunatic perfect!

It's almost bittersweet, being completely done with such a fantastic boss, but it still feels amazing to actually have a recording of a perfect Megumi fight.

Got clipped on Eau-De-Vie more times than I care to count, so I'm really glad I didn't screw up EMLG when I was nervous as hell.

I actually got this a while ago, but I figured I'd post this regardless.

Satori rush Normal no vertical
(Big thanks to Malkyrian for recording this! It might need to buffer a bit before watching and can be a bit stuttery, so bear with me please. Might youtuberise this later)

As I don't have the guts to fully tackle Lunatic yet, I wasted a bit of time trying this after I somehow got to BoWaP on my first and third attempts.
It actually took a few days to beat it, but the result is one of the most ridiculous, hilarious, luckshit runs I've ever had. The dodges in this one are either actually quite good (in an outlandish way), random helpless flailing through clusters or overadjusting almost right into a bullet. Somehow, all my deaths seem completely retarded to me, though. My favourite lucky moments in this run are Return Inanimateness, Deep Mist Labyrinth and all of Aya's cards (died on Great Whirlwind, though :ohdear:), although, really, about two thirds of the cards had their moments.

As a side note, I find it remarkable (and pretty awesome) that each and every of her 21 attacks is capturable without vertical movement (on Normal, at least), when much shorter boss fights with 6 or 7 attacks (I've tried Ichirin, Murasa and Orin) have patterns that are impossible that way. A perfect is really unfeasible, though, since DBDB is going to force a lot of restarts early on and some of the last few attacks reeeaaally depend on the RNG (looking at you, RI and DML). I'd love to see somebody do this, although it's probably not worth it. :derp:
Lunatic 1ccs: MoF (ReimuB)

4 death no vertical normal Satori Rush, 2nd try.  (video is still uploading, projected finish time is 7 AM i.e. 4 hours from this post)

I need to learn how to do Great Whirlwind, then it's a matter of getting lucky on 3 cards near the end.  I've reset Ape Escape 100% speedruns for hours on end after about 8 minutes to RNG, so this is no different.

This is pretty fun.  (Highlight of my run: BoWaP, hands down.  Tokaguji and Philosopher's Stone had some good dodges too, and DBDB obviously)

I learned how to stream (and improved the DDC Normal SakuyaA record in the process). That's an accomplishment worth posting, isn't it?

Edit: Also, I now have more than half (13/24) of the DDC records on Royalflare. Granted, it doesn't include any of the competitive records, but if it's technically more than half it must mean something, right?

Went ahead and played SA stage 6 practice on lunatic for fun, ended up NDNB-ing Okuu for the first time (screwed around a lot on the stage itself though)
you should at least watch me panic at her second nonspell. the RNG was not very nice this time around

Finally 1CCed UFO on normal. That ended up taking way more practice than any of the other games so far.

I've been looking for new scoring techniques lately, and while most of the stuff is pretty useless, I found a kinda good thing just now. A more effective way of grazing Yuugi's opener which can be applied on every difficulty (in various forms). I'm quite happy about this.

Finally got a 1-death scorerun in SA Normal! That was exciting.

I'd been attempting this for a long time. SA is so full of clipdeaths, even on Normal... It feels strange not to have this as an ongoing goal anymore.

Incidentally, this is the same shot-type, game and mode that was my first 1cc. I've come full circle :')

When you aren't playing Touhou very often, it's the little things you end up treasuring, such as perfecting Utsuho on a whim. Stage 5 in Practice wasn't too bad either, with two expected deaths on Catwalk and Ghost Wheels but perfect everywhere else. I suppose I'm still in a right enough mindset to go for that Lunatic 1lc, perhaps the one remaining accomplishment of mine that I'd want done.
