1cc IN Hard with Sakuya solo
I got kind of unlucky against Fantasy Seal -Fader- and completely forgot how to do Tewi's first attack.  I was too nervous to capture/time out a lot of the other spells, like Pseudo-History, Brilliant Dragon Bullet, the first of Kaguya's Last Spells, and Hourai Jewel - I really didn't think I was going to be able to do it.  I'm still feeling twitchy.  On the other hand, this is a pretty good testament to what Bombing Moar does to your survivability.

Probably the hardest attacks with Sakuya solo are Reimu's opener and Tewi's first attack.  This shot type is really the only one that has to worry about getting killed by Reimu Hakurei's balls, and Tewi's first attack lasts longest when you're doing pathetic damage and carrying bombs that do even less damage.

I just caught Kanako's opener on Lunatic. Having not even played her stage in what feels like ages.

I need to remember the "spot above Reimu" where I was looking so that I can get more consistent at this. Really, this is huge for me, because now there's the remotest possibility of me perfecting MoF Stage 6 Lunatic.

induring.

Of course, I beat his improved score within a day as well.

The difference between StB and DS? One has better music and thus makes playing it more enjoyable.

EDIT: Typo. Wow, I need more sleep.

43.7 million score in StB.

Nabbed myself a second place.  :toot: inb4 Heartbeam
So yeah, DS sort of reminded me that StB existed and I went ahead and replayed through it. It's amazing how much easier everything is than from when I first played it.  :o

Fun stuff.

1cc IN with Border Team, Hard, Kaguya ending.

That's a first. However, I didn't save the replay because my playing was crap.

Not only did I start with 7 lives, but there was a point where I had max lives and bombs, and then I get clipped by Marisa's opener because I took a moment to rub my eye with my pinky.

;_;
I lost 8 bombs and a life.
Very cruel, Marisa...

Lunatic Subterranean Animism 1CC!

It was the first attempt where I got past Orin, too.

Now, which one's next? IN? PCB?  Maybe one of the PC-98 games..?

Holy crap, EoSD Lunatic 1cc

I did make some completely idiotic mistakes at a few parts, one example being that I forgot not to go up to the PoC after one of Remilia's spells and getting 9'd (How do you do the 9 ball thing anyway).

Captured the Prismriver sisters final spellcard a couple of times. Every time getting forced to the left corner of the screen forced to do some heavy micrododging. It doesn't feel as if i'm doing this card the right way because this method could easily mean getting screwed over. Pretty fun in any case.

Also, i don't understand why so many people redirect and fears Youmu's non-spells. They aren't too bad when you get used to them. Its even the same pattern every time i think.

They're quite dense and clippy.

I just wish I could perfectly misdirect them, so that they can go from 1 death/bomb to 0 death/bomb


And Yugi is not the easiest Stage 3 boss. She has all her nonspells, specifically, a clippy opener, lasers, and another dangerous nonspell. Then there's Ooe. Clipdeath in 3 steps, although that's rare for me.

Keine is much easier with her only threats being Ephemerality and both nonspells. And one of those nonspells is usually easy.

:ufo:
Well, I can barely get from the beginning to Ichirin without continuing, and everything after Murasa pretty much devastates me. Actually, on lunatic, I usually need several attempts to get past stage 3 even after continuing once, insofar...  :V

It's not like I don't like UFO or anything, it is just, without a doubt, the hardest of the regular games.

Hmm, wait, I can't remember if I already 1CC'd LLS or not.  :/

IN is a better idea for you. Its not terribly hard to 1cc and its very fun. (Think its my fave Touhou but that might be because it was my first)

They're quite dense and clippy.

I just wish I could perfectly misdirect them, so that they can go from 1 death/bomb to 0 death/bomb


And Yugi is not the easiest Stage 3 boss. She has all her nonspells, specifically, a clippy opener, lasers, and another dangerous nonspell. Then there's Ooe. Clipdeath in 3 steps, although that's rare for me.

Keine is much easier with her only threats being Ephemerality and both nonspells. And one of those nonspells is usually easy.

Do you have a consistent strategy for the 2nd opener of the Prismrivers or do you use Marisa? I find that to be one of the more tricky parts of the boss although i capture it a bunch of times now and then.

As for Yuugi. Why don't you guys put up a replay of an average Yuugi fight? You complain about all she has - quite a lot of people seem to do so - but i find it impossible to relate to since i never have had any problems with her. Maybe seeing it will make understanding what goes wrong easier.

She is by far the easiest s3 boss - 2nd spot goes to Keine - and except for Mt. Ooe i don't really understand how anyone could die.

Yuugi easiest WAT

SA > UFO > PCB > EoSD > IN > MoF

IMO, Yuugi is the hardest. She gave me so much trouble when I was barely starting out with Touhou because after her midboss card, if I was lucky enough to survive, I would get clipped by her lasers. And her last nonspell is a beast.

Even now, I still don't know how her lasers work in Lunatic.

Mt. Ooe is trivialized with two bombs.
And her last card isn't difficult, I just think it's luckshit. 50% capture rate here.

Yuugi's Laser attacks are evil. Mt. Ooe can be somewhat tough. Knock Out in three steps can occasionally throw something really nasty at you but is fairly easy otherwise. Onion Rings are a joke. Yuugi's non-laser nonspells are quite managable.

So yeah, aside from her laser non-spells I consider her one of the easier stage three bosses.

Yuugi's laser nonspells are static, even the red full-length ones if I remember correctly, so it's a matter of knowing where the openings are. The only random element that must be taken into account is where exactly Yuugi moves.

Only time they're not truly static are when the blue ones fire additional lasers upon death.

That said, this is what scoring is all about:

note to self: when you hear that little voice in your head telling you that this is a bad idea, you probably shouldn't keep doing it

No-focus run of EoSD Extra.  First Touhou I've played in two weeks.  Ended on Maze of Love.

If I actually bombed more than twice, I could probably pull that off.

People's problems with the laser non-spells i don't understand. To begin with i used reading until i figured out that i basically had to do the same moves every time thus making them trivial. You should remember to shoot as many ying-yang orbs as possible on Yuugi so fewer lasers will be spawned though.

Yuugi easiest WAT

SA > UFO > PCB > EoSD > IN > MoF

You would consider Yuugi harder than Alice? That'll probably change when you get to Lunatic level you know.

UFO Easy 1CCs with SanaeA and SanaeB, the latter of which included a capture of Light Maelstrom.

I have now gotten single-credit clears of every main series Windows game on Easy with every shot type.
Spoiler:
Except TH09, because fuck that game.

Nothing left to do but spellcard cleanup and move onto Normal.

Whether you're on Easy or you're a Lunatic, be damn proud of your accomplishments.  Don't let anyone convince you otherwise, for it's when you lose faith in your own achievements that those victories become defeats.
