Touhou "Bragging Rights" Thread (VII)

[ふねん1]

I consider it an accomplishment that I got past Murasa on Hard. It was the first try that I managed to get past Stage 2 without dying (using bombs appropriately on Stage 2 as well), though I'm not totally consistent on Stage 3 yet. Still, I'm making some progress.

Captured "Double Black Death Butterfly" and another Ghost Wheel BV

Another EoSD 1cc

Earlier I complained on how much I suck with straight shot types.

But I decided to do this because I think it'll make Cranberry Trap and QED easier.

UFO Stage 3 Hard no-deaths.

Would have been a perfect Ichirin fight too, had I not positioned myself to be SKEWERED by a laser on her first nonspell (bombed for protection, though the replay shows I would have lived anyway; oh well). Otherwise, this run was meant for learning where the UFOs were on this level, so the stage portion is hardly "perfect".

[Formless God]

2/49 on "Virtue of Wind God". Could've been four, as I heard that big bzzzz sound in two of my other runs. But of course, Mountain of Clipdeaths.

[Zengeku]

I picked a fight against all Stage 3 bosses in the windows games. Meiling went perfect, Alice was almost perfect. Failed two spells but managed to death-bomb them. Against Keine i captured all her spells but had to bomb her non-spells. Nitori claimed three lives against her 2nd card (suck at it and tried to time out) but the rest of the battle was perfect. Yuugi went almost perfect but messed up at final non-spell.

But Ichirin... i'd like to get something clarified by asking others because i am in doubt. Is Ichirin that much more difficult than even Alice or is just because i don't believe in UFO's and thus don't have enough practice? I died five times to her.

2/49 on "Virtue of Wind God". Could've been four, as I heard that big bzzzz sound in two of my other runs. But of course, Mountain of Clipdeaths.

You inspired me to do another couple of no-bomb MoF Stage 6 practice runs.

2/46 now.

Wind God,  I love that card.

[Lopsidation]

Made it 99.61% of the way through EoSD Lunatic! ~1/20 of Scarlet Gensokyo's lifebar was left.
I was expecting to be more ASDFAFGDF-ish after losing that close to victory, but I'm actually okay with it. I'll probably win on my next try.

That was how my final game over was before getting my 1cc. Also, if you don't feel up to restarting because of mistakes: just press on no matter how bad it goes. I entered stage 5 with two spare lives and still managed to 1cc.

[Lopsidation]

99.61% again. 
Does the percentage actually change depending on how much of the lifebar is left?

[Jaimers]

Caught all 416 spellcards in Concealed the Conclusion!  /o/

This includes all 56 last words as well. These cards are like 10 times harder than the IN ones, so this was quite a challenge~

[Iryan]

VoWG 2/46 now.

...make that 4/48 now.

Am I getting consistent at VoWG? What the hell?

[Formless God]

D:

I shouldn't have brought that up >_>

[Silent Harmony]

Hurray for being ahead on schoolwork. Touhou time!

SA Easy Stage 5 ND1B. Wasn't even going for anything like this, I was just trying to get better and it just happened.

I feel it's a fluke; after watching it there's no way I'm replicating it for a while.

\o/

[Serela]

Okay, I now fully agree that Medicine is just as broken as Aya. I haven't played PoFV in months and just beat Story Mode Lunatic with Medicine on my first try. With no deaths. I beat the score board's best Lunatic Medicine score!

I feel happy now. All the battles were ridiculously short, yes, but I still had to do some fairly good dodging. The replay even saved <3

EDIT:Tried Shikieiki. Got to Reimu with an Extra life. But Lunatic Reimu is not even possible. Two minutes of insanity and not a single hit ;-;

[jc_foster]

One-death MoF Easy

By far the best run I've put together in any of the games, and I'm surprised it happened with a shot type I haven't really used in MoF (mainly because I'd been too lazy to slap the vsync patch in there to un-break her). The death even came pretty much where I expected one -- Kanako's last card.

So why did I die to the first large bullet in stage 4 when I attempted the same thing on Normal? -.-

[The Greatest Dog]

I beat up Ran in two tries...

Why do people say that Princess Tenko is so BS?

Also...

IZUNA GONGEN GUYZ I'M GOING FOR IT WITHOUT THE SAFESPOT HOLY CRAP I CAPTURED IT

[Chaotic Phoenixma]

I've never managed to safespot it, and after my first 2 times doing it, I've never managed to safespot BoLaD.

[Alice★f]

Why do people say that Princess Tenko is so BS?

Really? People say that? I think Murasa's survival card at the end of UFO Stage 4 is BS. (Ghost Ship)

[?q]

Why do people say that Princess Tenko is so BS?

If you don't know how to approach the card you'll wind up doing no damage to a target that constantly dumps bullets on top of you that do a good job of blocking your crazed movements as you try to fly away from fast aimed bursts.

Of course, if you DO know how to approach the card it's considerably easier, albeit still easy to mess up.

[ふねん1]

EoSD Extra clear.

Woooooo finally. A pretty ugly clear if you ask me, I really need to get better at judging bomb usage (though the fact that I'm still half-asleep doesn't help). But a clear's a clear.

[Silent Harmony]

Let it be said once again: NEVER give up on a crap run!

PCB Easy 1cc with Marisa A!

That makes a 1cc with each character (R-B, M-A, S-A), and this was, imo, the most challenging of the three by far.

Back to schoolwork, then it's time to start working towards Normal I suppose...  :ohdear:

[ふねん1]

SA Extra clear!

Yeah baby! Koishi, you're awesome and everything, but it's about time you fell.

And to think I've had this open for almost five months, back when I was quite new to Touhou. The fact that I'm still not consistent at "no-death'ing" the stage portion shows how hard it can be to learn. And this Koishi run wasn't my cleanest either (I perfected the whole stage up to Genetics once before) - not that I'm complaining though.

[Alice★f]

Funen1, I now have renewed confidence to beat this stage  :V

[Reddyne]

Lots of progress on MoF extra, since it seems like Suwako is probably easiest for me as an extra stage boss.

Spell cards captured:
Kanako's Beautiful Spring like Suiga, Ancient Fate Linked by Cedars, and Omiwatari God Crosses.
Suwako's Long Arm and Long Leg, Moriya's Iron Ring, Frog Is Eaten by Snake due to the Croak, and Seven Stones and Seven Trees.

This is over the course of some 10 runs or so. I'd have it made if I could do it all back-to-back. Got a long list of stupid deaths to go along with the spell cards captured, though. :V

[LHCling]

Bragging. Just what I wanted to do. Well...I joined MotK, at last. I've been spying lurking looking around here for a month or two... Got into Touhou last December... Well, here comes the list:

1CC's
Story of Eastern Wonderland (normal)
Lotus Land Story (hard MarisaA)
Mystic Square (hard, Marisa)
Embodiment of Scarlet Devil (hard)
Perfect Cherry Blossom (hard)
Imperishable Night (hard)
Mountain of Faith (hard, ReimuA)
Subterranean Animism (normal)
Undefined Fantastic Object (normal)

Extra Clears:
SoEW, Evil Eye Sigma (ReimuC)
LLS, Mugetsu & Gengetsu (MarisaA)
MS, Alice Margatroid (All characters, it's so fun!)
EoSD, Flandre Scarlet (ReimuB)
PCB, Ran Yakumo (ReimuB)
PCB, Yukari Yakumo (ReimuB)
IN, Fujiwara no Mokou (Rm & Yu)
MoF, Suwako Moriya (ReimuB)
SA, Koishi Komeiji (ReimuA)
UFO, Nue Houjuu (SanaeB)
SA one was definitely the hardest. It took me like 40 tries. Everything else took me less than 20 tries.

Shoot the Bullet progress:
Beaten 85/85 scenes in Shoot the Bullet so far. All clear!
108/108 in Double Spoiler as Aya, 99/99 as Hatate. Well, that's it for photography. And I'm not lying.


Non-official Touhou game progress:

Labyrinth of Touhou: 13F

Mystical Chain: Lunatic Clear

MegaMari: Well...

The Story of Eastern Wind: Normal Clear, Yukkuri Extra Clear

Touhou fighters are pretty good, it's just that I don't find time to play them.

I've been wondering, am I something you'd call "fast learner"? Only scene 12-7 as Aya took me more than 300 photos in Double Spoiler...and I have never used Practice Mode, expect once in SA.

Well, maybe that was a bit too much?

[Silent Harmony]

Got into Touhou last December... Well, here comes the list:

[Huge fucking list of Normal/Hard/Extra]

If that's true, well...

:colonveeplusalpha:

[Treasurance]

As a funny side note, I didn't have any experience of danmaku games before I got into Touhou (Radiant Silvergun doesn't count). Also my parents usually restrict my "screen time" to 2 hours a day, with some not so minor exceptions...well, I have this friend who learns even faster than me and has screen time of 1 hour. Efficiency is the key.  With all of this, I sound even more of a liar...but I definitely am not one. Oh, and I'm writing this on my (mobile) phone. Anyways, isn't this a great thread to introduce yourself? Err...
