Gee, it's even the same in Immaterial and Missing Power.

Not like ZUN specifically said it was an arrangement or something....?

Remilia's sprite was recolored from IaMP to SWR/Soku. Most noticeable being the color of her hair. Which changes from a blue to a less saturated, and lighter color.

EoSD: Winter???
PCB: Winter then spring
IN: Summer, because of wriggle(firefly in japan generally appears during summer)
PoFV: Probably summer because of sunflower from yuka's stage
MoF: Autumn
SA: Winter
UFO: Early SPring
TD: Last moment spring

The next game gonna be set in Summer yeah!!! Summer spirits come out quickly!

You're mostly all wrong. EoSD takes place in summer, PCB is Spring, IN is late Summer/early fall. PoFV is in the Spring,

On a different note though, all the fighting games take place during the summer.

Suika and Yuugi are two of the four Oni Devas. At first I thought 'Deva' was an alternate or misspelling of 'Diva', since they're basically famous oni ladies of high esteem.

I just discovered that 'Deva' is actually the Sanskrit word for 'deity' from Buddhism and Hinduism.

Suika and Yuugi are Oni Goddesses.

Suika and Yuugi are Oni Goddesses.

Given their powers(Gathering/Dispersal, and Control of The Supernatural respectively), it's quite understandable.
Stuff like that is generally reserved for god/goddess-caliber characters in that series. EG, Suwako and her Control over/Creation of Earth, and Kanako's Dominion Over Skies and Hills.

I just noticed that Marisa's theme in Imperishable Night is the same as in Story of Eastern Wonderland.

:o

I found this surprising as well. Didn't know "Love Colored Master Spark" went back that far. However, ZUN did mention SoEW in his comments on the theme.

Speaking of themes that took you back to the past, Reimu and Alice have both had PC-98 themes come into the Windows era. Marisa has the most: two. Her EX-theme in Great Fairy Wars originated from her EX-boss theme in Seihou.

Ah, yes. If I weren't mistaken, I think he tried to "remix" that theme, but for some reason he said he only made an "arrangement" using only "the general idea" of the song.

Actual quotes may vary.

I'd like to point out that "deva" used in this case is just a title of their superiority, and they aren't literal devas. The word used is 四天王, which can refer to the actual four devas in Buddhism, but in other cases such as this one it's basically just the top four people. For an analogy, the Elite Four in the Pok?mon games is referred to by the same kanji (四天王) in Japanese, because they're basically the top four Trainers. I guess it's not really something that can translate perfectly into English. :L

四天王 (Shitennoh) translates as "four emperors", too. TVTropes has an entire page about this kind of grouping (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/FourIsDeath).
Shitennoh is also the original naming for Golbez' four lords of the elements in FFIV. From Hyadain's fan masterpiece about them (http://youtu.be/C8vz186pjY0) other fans made a Touhou version with noone else than team-9 (http://youtu.be/DvO3l4zDOAw).

Somehow, it has escaped me that Gensokyou had their own official four emperors. Nice to know this.

~Truncated

Yuyuko freaks out if you get right next to her in her first non-spell. This is in Normal Mode and is not altered in any way. Kaguya does something similar in one of her non-spells, but I can't time it right to get a screenshot, sorry. (Possibly others do this, too? I've tested on a few other bosses and haven't found anything yet.) Amusingly, both of them are considered princesses, so it might have something to do with being improper and getting too close to them. Or they just don't like it. :P

~

Now imagine if TD had such an attack... Uh-oh.

If I'm not very late, Yoshika makes an anti shotgunning ring of bullets when you get too close to her during the first attack (the one where she summons 2 spirits at both sides, at least on normal)

Edit: also noticed that fairies on the eientei stage of PoFV also wear bunny ears. I remember reading somewhere here that IN's stage also had some of this :> Don't really remember if PoFV was mentioned, can't seem to find that post either OTL

Regardless of the ring of bullets, rushing up to her and slowly streaming backwards is the easiest way to beat that card.

EX-Keine's final card is slightly different depending on whether you focus or unfocus it.

And the Blue Amulets in Xu Fu's Dimension don't have hitboxes

EX-Keine's first spell does the same thing too. As for the blue amulets,  I thought it's because their hitboxes are below where the player's hitbox is at the maximum bottom of the screen.

The Bad Apple!! video has a PC98 character included. For quite some time, I wondered who the other scythe girl is until I read that it's Elly. It makes a lot of sense, though, since Bad Apple!! is the theme of her stage.

Oh wait sorry, was mistaken due to immunity for the first 2 seconds in spell practice.

A few Familiar using attacks are like this. Mainly Keine's (her nonspells) Though Wriggle has one I believe.
And the blue can hit you, move up a bit from the bottom and you'll see.

Anyways, Cirno glows green when her ice power is fully charged in FairyWars.

Noticed this some weeks ago, but the life bars on IaMP, after the first round (or second if going into third) of the player that lost will fade in to the new life bar pretty quickly.
I figured out how to play midi in games with a different device on Win7 ^^

For Reisen's Visionary Tuning and Illusion Seeker, Reisen will always try to move in front of you. She also will move a set distance so if she's close enough she will move past you. If she's right above you she will still move though.

And Reimu shoots amulets if you get too close for Danmaku Bounded Field.

I was fluffing around and playing EoSD, when I got to Remilia.
Then I noticed that fog-stuff that looks like wings flapping.
And then I realized something, It's created by Remilia's wings.
