People on IRC managed to convince me to wait on getting this, but it does look interesting. I'll probably get it once the hype goes down a bit.

I really wish people would stop with the "stuff happens in a graveyard, so Mima is coming back!" crap, but I guess there's no harm in hypothesizing.

 I'm going to try to keep myself from spoiling myself past the two new characters thus far, but if people decide to bring them into fanfiction or RPs or whatever, I guess there's nothing I can do.

Speaking of. We got rid of the spoiler policy for the trial version thread, but shouldn't the full version thread abide by spoiler rules? Since a lot of people are going to be following along here, and not everyone appreciates the final boss' identity (or the entire game beyond stage 3, really) being spoiled before they encounter it.

The cover was posted while I was asleep, so this was definitely a pleasant surprise to wake up to.  :3

My first impression was one of the Prismriver, sensible or not. Of course, after thinking about it a little, I came to the obvious conclusion:
it's actually the Five Magic Stones disguised as one of the Prismriver sisters!
Or maybe it's, you know, some new character as per usual.  :D

Sounds good to me.

Looks more like horns to me, there's something the looks like a horn under the texture on the other side. Would that make another oni ?

Quote from: ZUN
Since the final version of Shinreibyou was sent in, it's been an outrageous dance of moving and other such personal matters. But, one way or another, the end result has arrived.

It's a, hm... a calm CD jacket, yes. This is one of the ones that will be sold tomorrow, so my regards.
Touhou Shinreibyou costs 1000 yen, so, please make sure you have a 1000-yen bill prepared.

Oh, boy... I'm guessing the physical labor involved in packing will probably leave me collapsed before things even start, but here's to tomorrow anyway.

You know, ground, it would be nice if you didn't shake so much.

Also, just in case people aren't seeing it, the background of the jacket sort of obscures what looks like either another oni-esque horn or another part of a bow. I know, I thought it was a wizardly hat at first too, which would have totally made it either Mima or Layla Prismriver.

Based on the shape, it looks more like a ribbon to me, but I wouldn't be surprised if they turned out to be horns either. You know, exactly what is Kasen hiding under those hair buns again? (Just a joke: while there's a chance it could be Kasen, I quite doubt it.)[quote author=Be Pok U (1998 burst style)

Well... I though it was a wizards hat aswell.
The missing Prismriver was high on my list of quesses...

But then again... I am a Mima fan and once again suffering from bad denialism (it has to be Mima...
If not in this game then in the next one):

Could be Youki, if what he is holding turns out to be a sword (which seems quite likely)... Yeah, dressed like that~

But seriously speaking, this doesn't look like a final boss to me (Which doesn't mean I'd be surprised if she is). Could ZUN be going back to showing off the Extra Stage boss on the cover?
My first thought was Layla, as that which she is holding could easily be part of some instrument, too.

Marisa being the Extra Boss in Great Fairy Wars was kind of a spoiler. But I don't see why mentioning the name of a new character is spoiler material.
Honestly though, I don't even get what there is to spoil about a Touhou game since the plot is pretty much pick good girl, go shoot bad girls until "defeated" and watch them explode. Most people here won't understand what's going on in the 'story' before its translated.

It better be. ZUN has already reused two bosses.

There isn't much to spoil, but I'd really like to enter stages and see new characters for the first time inside of the game, not on screenshots or other places. That means no Pixiv or anything until next month, already got signatures and avatars blocked here, so may god have mercy on the fool who randomly throws screenshots or pictures into achievement threads or anywhere else you wouldn't expect them.

Just because there is not much to spoil doesn't mean that the little to spoil that there is should be allowed to spoil. For instance, the Yuyuko battle is much more awesome for the first time if you don't know of the battle's grand finale.  :derp:

Then again, I am probably going to do it like the previous years and try to avoid everything until I have unlocked extra and reached the boss by myself. After that, I don't think there will be anything that could be spoiled anymore.

I play Touhou as a puzzle shooter, not as a scorerunner or for some achievement-oriented play.

I want to see the patterns for myself, decipher their natures, then find the best way to go about handling them. The satisfaction that results is immense.

As such, I would really hate it if the patterns were to be spoiled.

As much as I want to not spoil myself too, I figure I'll be spoiled by fan-arts & stuff anyway. That, or I don't have self-constrain :<... I guess I just won't go as far as spoiling myself with their backstories & plot-related stuff like I usually like it, so I am very much go for spoiler warnings.

Except the music though... So excited to hear the new tracks and their trance/spirit world versions and combined versions and AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!! :getdown:

The spoiler issue will be handled by having 2 threads, 1 for general discussion (this one) and 2 for actual info (article thread with spoilers)

But we'll have to see how to exactly fit that. For now, nothing is known yet and so we can just either speculate on the cover picture or discuss random things.

The first three stages required little to no memorization. If that trend carries over to the full game then I don't think there is anything to worry about. It shall be nice for extra though. Suwako and Koishi has some trial n' error stuff that would be nice to have an opportunity to memorize effectively.

Theory time yay~

Looking at the cover art, I think it's either a yama or an oni. She seems to be holding a yama stick and a judgment scale. There also seems to be a sword hung around her hips. I think some yama have horns. It could also be the third oni deva, wielding a couple of weapons. Or it's an instrument, like a big violin. Layla perhaps?

I have a feeling this would be the extra boss instead of final boss. A yama trying to put a stop to these necromantic shenanigans but arriving a bit too late. Or it's the phantasm boss. There could still be a chance for Mimerz or Layla to pop up.

I'm still hoping that the final boss is a revived Qin Shi Huang, the first Chinese emperor, with his terracotta army as stage enemies. Would explain why Yoshika, a jiang shi of all things, appeared in this game. Likely Qin Shi Huang will be turned into a loli ghost, but it'd be really cool if ZUN made him male. Even cooler if instead of a pretty boy it's a freaky undead skeleton or lich. It'd certainly be something different.

I'm very busy with real life for a week, so I'll have to cut the internet to not be spoiled.

I think that the spell practice is there so you can enjoy the spellcards without the Trance.

I'm starting to think that Mima is becoming a joke character who is supposed to appear in every game.

After game2011 pointed out something on the silhouette, I took another look. At the time, I was on my phone, and tilting it, I could see something like a scythe the character was holding.

Could this possibly mean we'll get a reaper that can actually reap?

I believe that the character on the cover may be the Extra boss. For the past 4 games all of the final bosses have been extremely bulky (in clothing, of course :V), but this one seems somewhat... skinny. It could be Kyouko, since that "wavy scythe"-thing is actually part of the cover. It's wayyy to big to be a weapon... (unless ZUN is now going to give all his new touhous ridiculously large weapons. Memes ahoy!)

Oh, and will there be Last Words? I kinda just realized that there weren't any Last Spells in the demo, unlike IN.

Seeing that ZUN shown both Ex and final bosses on the cover in early games, this is hard to guess.

No way a second stage boss is going to become an EX or final boss. Unless ZUN uber trolls us. Therefore Kyoko holding a weapon? Don't think so. And what do you mean ridiculously large weapons? Haven't you seen Reimu's Gohei on the title screen?

I just wanted to clarify something. While these lines may seem like a scythe, they probably aren't (I just realized I hadn't made myself clear). Seriously... a weapon like this would be too big.
(I'd be hilarious if they were, but nothing is confirmed yet)

To be honest, I don't really think the Final/Extra boss is going to be Kyouko (unless it's a Moriya Shrine Myoren Temple conspiracy) but for the meantime Rika, Alice, and Kogasa say hi.
We don't know, yet.

Actually, there is something visible that could be a horn, and depending on perspective it would even be in the correct position. The cloths wouldn't match at all, though, not even counting the whole no-lower-body thing. Then again, Yuka and Alice both looked way different in their reappearances. Then again then again, there is no reason to assume ZUN is going to bring any characters back except for wishful thinking.  :P

Maybe you should write him an email now. There's still time for him to re-program the game just the way you'd like it, and I'm sure he'd be more than willing to listen to your concerns and take them seriously.

I'm glad I'm in between or this might suck. :V

But really. Sometimes you just need new characters to make the story feel right.
I might think ZUN could finally put Mima in a new game, but I honestly think everyone's kinda legitly pissed him off enough that he won't. =X

Naw, Suika is just ZUN's drinking mate, along with Yuugi.
Also, Mima will appear as stage 6's boss, but will be pile drived by the final and extra stage(Not Phantasm) final bosses, effectively wiping her from existance. The actual final boss will then appear.

So much speculation...

But for one stream of hope of enlightenment, the divine spirits march towards the darkness with all their heart and soul.
And then, they return to nothingness, without knowing the reason of their own birth. They disappear just like that, without even knowing that there is a someone who cannot help but smile while observing it whole.

So yes actually, in Touhou it is possible to cease the existence of ghosts.

On another note, is anyone else sensing from this that the final boss described in the prologue actually sounds...evil? That's a very rare thing in Touhou, and I can't help but wonder who it is now and what their goal is...guess we'll find out soon enough though.

The playthrough for this boss is really simple. He has pretty high HP, and you'll take a lot of damage trying to fight him head on. The trick is to go in strong, back off and recoup, and then keep coming back. Also helps to eat some mozzarella sticks.

Hilarious. Just hilarious. You know ZUN instruments quite well on the software end but failed on the raw samples for the SD-series (Sawtooth was a dead give-away)...at least have the actual module :V

The unknown future of danmaku

The Divine Spirits that suddenly appeared, the Shrine Maiden that located where they gather decided to enter herself.
If anything, aren't you the one being gathered?

Touhou Project #13 Ten Desires
Danmaku of disharmony(?) sleeps in Gensokyo


Also, in the screen shot on the lower right with Reimu talking, she's saying
"There's no mistake, this is where the Divine Spirits are gathering."

So pumped dude. I don't mind spoiling characters or music ahead of time, as I've done that for every game beforehand (though most of them weren't new at the time), but I'd rather avoid spoiling the danmaku patterns until I actually play them.

And this forum needs an option for users to change skins. I don't mind the blue BG, but I still kinda prefer the older one.

As for that link? I'd wager it's fake. I doubt the base Point value would start anywhere below 20,000 for an Extra Stage. Not to mention that BG looks like a darker, mirrored version of UFO Stage 1's BG.

NO! Somebody get a translator on the line and tell him to MAKE MORE!!!

I don't know what will be worse: waiting for screens/themes, waiting for the translation patch, or actually waiting for the game to arrive (unless there's a download shop somewheres, but the jewel cases are great keepsakes and CDs are great backups).

So, short of going to Japan and mugging someone, about how long do you suspect til people in the US(Like myself) will be able to request this from our own Kourindou(IE N-Forza's topic)?

jq1790 is run over by a few trains

(unless there's a download shop somewheres, but the jewel cases are great keepsakes and CDs are great backups).
Sadly, ZUN doesn't seem to like the digital distribution idea for full versions, only trials.

Neat news! Apparently the series is growing hard and well.

I would love for it if ZUN took some pointers from western indie studios and offer download versions for purchase, but it's understandable that he just keeps with a few burned copies on discs distributed in a few venues only. Even if he doesn't do that it would be really nice for him to arrange deals with others to burn and sell the discs, especially in the market outside Japan...I will attribute his not doing either to artistic vs. monetary intent (understandable) and smug Japanese island syndrome </nationalism>.

It'll probably take the amount of time it takes to push through rabid crowds of eager fans plus the time it took them to get there, plus the time it takes to install it to their computer...

After all that i'd say it'd take an hour.

Actually, this thread is supposed to be spoiler marked. For now, just be courteous and respect that other people don't want to get spoiled just yet.

I might go back later and edit spoiler tags in. Actually, I'll just order the Janitors to do so.

I vote posting fake spoilers = temp ban for 24 hours.

I second this motion. Its not funny, its annoying.

This game would already be dead to me if it wasn't for the music.

>Dead to you.
>Graveyard/death/water theme.

And yes, I'm looking forward to the new music more than anything.

Oh well, what do I care. The meat of the games for me is perfecting stuff and timing things out anyway. Also, hooray for no Mima. Thats another of my own Ten Desires fulfilled.

She's female, it's just that ZUN based her off an actual male character.

Give any Touhou plot synopsis, and you know anyone can associate it with Mima.

-Someone from the Netherworld stole spring, and it's probably a ghost. It must be Mima.
-Someone wants to shut down the Hakurei shrine. It must be Mima.
-Someone's locked away in the Earth threatening to destroy Gensokyo. It must be Mima.
-There's a magician sealed in the depths of Makai. It must be Mima.

And just watch...

"Touhou 14 announced. It'll have somebody who isn't very fond of Gensokyo as the antagonist."
"MIMA!!!"

A harder-than-lunatic (http://i.imgur.com/9JRXF.jpg) variant of a spellcard. I'm not entirely sure what you do to unlock it, I unlocked Yuyuko's after capturing the specific card on both Hard and Lunatic, but it could be a "capture X many cards" deal that I triggered while clearing to the card on Hard.

Yes. That was the case with the demo too except higher numbers. I'm interested in seeing how many lives I can get out of the entire game. Probably somewhere around MoF/EoSD level. Which would be a good thing for those looking for a challenge in their 1cc's outside of scoring and performing well.

Is it something you unlock for spell practice or does it by chance replace the lunatic version of the card or something? You know, kinda like how Exceed 2nd upgrades rank based on your performance?

After messing around some more, I unlocked Kyouko's overdrive (http://imgur.com/XiADp). It seems you have to capture every single variant of the card, from easy to lunatic, to access it. Once I unlocked it, any character was able to play it.

It seems to be spell practice only. If it's accessible through Lunatic play by playing well, well I'm not good enough to do it :P

The Nico Livestreamer seemed to crash right when the survival card ended too (it was close to 0 seconds from what I remember). He was in death trance at the time so I thought that's what contributed to the fatal error rather than the card's timer ending.

I love the extra boss,
both her theme and spell cards are so lulzy
.

Anyone feel that the stage 6 boss' final spell is the easiest of the series? I captured it on my first try on Hard, and I almost never do the same for any of the other stage 6 bosses even though I know what's coming. I did have a few close calls though. As a sidenote, the stage 5 midboss first spell card scares the shit out of me.

After looking through all the synopsese, I kind of realize something: Ten Desire is
Undefined Fantastic Object meets Imperishable Night
. Think about it:
four playable characters (not teams, but close enough), Miko has the makings to be a rival to Byakuren in the same way Mokou is to Kaguya, it involves unsealing a powerful Touhou from the underworld, it uses the collect-the-thing life/bomb system, and it's got Nue.

I can't wait until all the
Miko vs. Byakuren
comics come flooding out. (Or
Mamizou vs. Ran
for that matter.)

Oh yeah, the
final boss's 4th spell card, the only one with Overdrive option
, is it possible to capture on Lunatic at all ?

Circle around the boss and suddenly it's completely trivial.  BV

Also why is there no overdrive difficulty for the entire game?

Because he is bad at drawing male character,besides the character is no importance, i dont mind if touhou has another male since the main game is about avoiding the bullet... not the character

This extra is so hard it's literally unbeatable.  :wat:

Okay... Now I have played this a little bit. This game is much easier than previous games...
When I die in this game, it is because I were careless - not because the pattern was hard.

I also liked the fact that every single boss seemed to have their very own gimmick
(
like exploding curvy laser and fainting Yoshika... "Triple" boss battle was nice aswell
).

I also noticed that the game freezes in spellpractice when I try to select spellcards
that I haven't unlocked (doesn't always happen)...

Looks fun. I'm really digging the Stage 6 theme as well as Miko's boss theme. Hell, I'm really starting to like this cast the more I read about them. Especially Miko and Seiga.

I love how
Seiga uses Yoshika as her regenerating shield in her boss fight. I laugh so damn hard every time I see it.

Perhaps Touhou 14 will have
a battle between Byakuren and Miko. The story of this game (even the Extra stage) certainly seems like it's leading up to it.

From what I'm being shown in the videos, it shapes up pretty well. And Stage 6 looks as if it has been designed for a Stage 1 theme, to some oddness. It feels like playing backwards.

I don't know when someone's going to start shipping copies overseas, considering it sold out pretty quickly yesterday.

Just finished. Here are my thoughts:
-Difficulty is toned down a lot. I am a normal mode player and only had 2 deaths up to and including stage 5 (and they were on the stage, not on the boss). But then 6th boss comes in and kicks my ass royally (that 2nd card, wtf!!!). I guess with more practice this game might be even easier than IN (at least on normal).
-
I can't read japaneze, this is what I think the new loli's are. Stage 4 boss = a necromancer, since she revives yoshika when she is down + she uses her as her pet. Stage 5 = ghosts. Stage 6 = Kyoko's boss/mother/superior, so also one of those echo things.
-Music isn't so great as the previous games :(

I deliberately got a bit reckless during my first playthrough. Especially during bosses xD (just to get a feel for them, of course).
However, I didn't die until I got to the double battle with Yoshi and NyanNyan. I really loved the music during that fight. Though the thunder ghost caught me by surprised and killed me. Damned zig-zaggy arrows.

Though is it me or is the last stage pretty easy up to the final boss?

By the way, Youmu's hair, paired with this expression.

Another one here. I have way too many derpy deaths from trying to stay near the stage one and two boss for spirit. Later on I continue doing stupid things and always forget to bomb, leading to needing a continue at stage 5, and sometimes stage 4.

I thought this was a pretty fun game. I'm happy to see a night theme again, and while the danmaku isn't difficult, it is pretty. The backgrounds - especially in Stage 5, with that tower, and the lights flashing in the windows now and then - were a real treat. And I'm really digging the music.

Not too worried about the glitch, as last time around that was sorted within a couple days.

What the game lacks in difficulty, I think, it makes up for in making it harder to get extra lives, and the risks you sometimes have to take to get spirit blobs. I have to say, though, it is pretty fun filling the spirit gauge, getting right under a boss, and hitting C.

Overall I'd say it's what I was hoping for from Touhou 13.

Check the Touhou Wiki. All the bosses are already up. :P

And seeing how there is no Mima, I feel that ZUN deliberately tricked us. Since Yuyuko's warning was pretty ambiguous at best, saying someone "troublesome" was returning. Which could mean one of two things:

1. A character we know is returning.
 2. A new character who used to be around is returning.

But it was coming from Yuyuko, the great ghost princess of the netherworld, master of all things incorporeal (okay, maybe that's a bit much).  So people assumed she was talking about Mima.

*applaud* Great job, ZUN. That's no sarcasm. You really had us  (or some of us) there.

EDIT: Hey wait a minute. Thinking on it, what did the divine spirits have to do with the plot again?

Oh good.  Got Cheat Engine in no time thanks to Mefidex's explanation of Spirit World mechanics I knew exactly what to look for... in other words, I'm now playing Ten Desires without Spirit World (And thus no computer crashing on leaving).  It's a bit of a handicap but not much of one - my first time passing stage 3 I went straight to the final card of the game.

Also the stage 5 boss is so much fun.  Actually all of them are.  This game is just awesome now if only I can beat it properly (I should stop going for some of the later life shards, they're a little too risky)

And oh my god stage 6's theme.  I love it so much.

It ended up being about as fun as I expected, I guess. The only annoying thing is how it incentives taking more risks - since I'm quite a bit unskilled, it often results in me being way too reckless, flying around everywhere trying to get points and ghosts, and crashing into everything.
Also, for whatever weird reason, I've been feeling this game is too short. No idea why, since there isn't much different from the other games.

Hoping a BGM pack gets uploaded soon/the Music Room Interface gets updated soon so I can listen to those delicious trance mixes without dying.

Reminds me of when I first tried playing Imperishable Night after normal 1cc'ing EoSD and PCB.

"Time points??? Familiars farming??? I MUST NOT FOCUS and I MUST GRAZE MOAR.... wait wtf... continue??? FFFFF"
I then thought all those people saying IN is the easiest were lying, until I realized I should focus on survival.

While tinkering with Chinese to Pinyin converters,
Seiga's name would become Huo Qinge.  (Or should it be Huo Qing-e... or Huo Qing'e...?)

Googling that won't get you much... unless you drop the final e (which would be the final character in her name though).  "Huo Qing" nets you about 89,600 results in Google.

Are you using a fixed aspect ratio (The black bars at the side)? I always stuck to windowed mode due to the sideways stretching until I found out how to get the black bars. With them it looks pretty okay at fullscreen

Retail version allows you to continue like 10times.. and since you dont start at the beginnign of the stage, its really easy for anyone to get all spellcards in their spellcard practice.

By holy, i did all the lunatic version of the spellcards that have overdrive, this really feels like the game is much easier, even on lunatic. Doing the lunatic version of the overdrive spellcards didnt unlock overdrive though.. and extra still isnt unlocking for me ;/

Sorry for posting something not related to TD, but since I have this issue myself, I'd like to help.

If your videocard is an Intel and you have a 16:10 monitor, there's a chance fixed aspect ratio won't work, even if activated. Maybe they solved this in the recent upgrades, but if you already have the latest version that your computer allows and it doesn't work... tough luck.

There should be the option for "Aspect Ratio" on the graphic properties of your videocard. If yours an Intel, this is the window:
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-fDqcdvyYXw4/Tkan7THvPVI/AAAAAAAAAX4/HQseV-YQ4fI/s512/Intel-GMA-4500M.png

And at least on XP, just right-clicking on the desktop allows you to choose if you want Stretching or Aspect Ratio.

If you your video card's a Nvidia, there shouldn't be any problems and you just need to activate this:
https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-jF662XN7d-M/Tkan7fqJmoI/AAAAAAAAAX0/C1u72WLDWv8/s720/nvidia_flat_panel_scaling.png

If nothing works, maybe you could wait for a VPatch or something and change Windowed Mode's resolution to 960x720.

Hope that helps and again, sorry if posting off topic is wrong.

ATI... there should be Fixed Aspect Ratio. At least Google doesn't beg to differ.

If you go to the driver properties of your videocard, the process is about the same for activating it:

Just mark it and presto, it should be working. Unless it's the same issue as with Intel and 16:10 displays...

Again, sorry for the off topic.

Would someone happen to have a screen of those weird bullets from the Ex Stage? Everyone talking about it made me curious. Dunno if it's considered Pattern Spoiler just seeing how the danmaku looks.

thoughts
- no Mima this time ;(
- no Last Words.. maybe Overdrives replace them? (must check. Still, IN had 17 LWs..)
- music and characters are okay (not bad), but patterns weren't impressive.. (stages look a bit more interesting, well-paced than most other games, though)
- scoring doesn't seem to give many elements to consider (just play as flawlessly as you can, use bombs as resources for getting trances, trances for raising point value, etc), just making a mistake doesn't seem to be overly punitive (restart-inducing) like in MoF. What I mean, is that the scoring here (though not perfect-play inducing) doesn't feel intuitive (at least it doesn't emphasize grazing as much, maybe). There doesn't seem to be many opportunities for raising the Trance meter as fast as in other games, too (Crimzon Clover and DOJ come to mind; for some reason, Crimzon Clover's showers of stars in Simple Mode or Break Meter did convince me that scoring through raising the meter was a worthy risk :D).
- latter bosses don't even seem to give much room for being point-blanked for spirits :(

Not sure if this counts as spoilers, but I'll tag it anyway to be careful.

Is it just me, or does the danmaku in this game look rather visually dull? There's no particularly vibrant colors or patterns or anything until significantly late in the game. Most of the bullets are just kind of there.

Given that the danmaku visuals are one of my favorite parts of the games themselves, I find this rather disappointing. It might just be a matter of personal taste in danmaku patterns, though.

Stage 4.
I love Yoshika. Even more.
And am I the only one who thinks that the artwork for most characters is actually quite good now?
And normal mode's not good enough anymore,  gonna make myself 1cc hard in order to unlock Extra.

Also where are replays stored now?

Stage 6: For a Prize Resembling Peace - ???
Reimu: There are TONS of divine spirits here! They're like stars in the sky.
Reimu: They're kind of, er...
Reimu: Not all that foreboding, actually.
Reimu: Was I mistaken?
Miko: I have been observing your actions thus far.
Miko: What a magnificent human. I could learn a thing or two from you.
Miko: But then again, I wonder if there are any humans whom I couldn't learn from...
Reimu: How long have you been watching me?
Miko: I've been watching since back before you were born
Reimu: Hm?
Miko: You may work as a youkai exterminator, but I see you as a supporter of youkai.
Miko: Are you not allies with the youkai monk and her ilk who opposed my resurrection?
Reimu: You mean Byakuren? My eternal rival (in terms of religion)?
Reimu: But more importantly, what do you mean you've been watching since way back in the past?
Miko: In life, I could understand the words of ten people talking simultaneously.
Miko: Having gained the power of faith from my long sleep, I can now also hear people's desires.
Miko: Desire tells of a person's true nature.
Miko: If one can understand ten desires, they understand all of humanity.
Miko: As they are in the past, the present, and even the future...
Miko: I am sure that next, you will say something like -
Reimu: Whoa, whoa, hold on a second!
Reimu: Would you let me talk?! I mean, I came all this way!
Miko: ...That won't be necessary.
Miko: The reason being, your actions are all too predictable.
Miko: Yes, you will bare your fangs at me. For no particular reason.
Reimu: Exactly! Even though, yes, there's no good reason!
Miko: I have awaited the time when humans denied my existence, and I became legend!
Miko: So try to defeat me, and I shall become as a living legend!

Youmu: I got in by lying to that person about being a hermit...
Youmu: But even so, I've never seen a grave so full of life before.
Youmu: Plus, these divine spiirts... well, no, these appear to be plain old desires taking form.
Youmu: Spirits of desire... They're vulgar spirits considered a type of vengeful spirit.
Youmu: Who would gain from gathering such things...?
Miko: Incorrect. They gathered here of their own accord.
Miko: Desire accumulates around me, as it has in every era.
Miko: For day after day, I have been listening to ten desires simultaneously.
Youmu: ...
Miko: ...What? You seem to lack two desires.
Miko: From the ten you should have, you lack your attachment to life and envy of death...
Youmu: Sorry about that, but I'm already half-dead.
Miko: Is that so? Then are we companions?
Youmu: Eh?
Miko: Are you not a Taoist with the ultimate goal of everlasting youth?
Miko: Or no, perhaps you're already a Shikaisen...
Youmu: No, no, no...
Youmu: I denied that I was a hermit earlier.
Miko: There's no need to hide anything from me.
Miko: I understand everything. I understand from having seen human desires.
Miko: Unfortunately, as you are lacking in desires, you are incomplete...
Youmu: No, see, you've got it all wrong!
Miko: If we were fellows, you would know what will happen next, yes?
Youmu: Well, I don't!
Miko: We fight as fellows who were resurrected for eternal youth, studiers in the Tao!
Miko: Now try to defeat me!
Miko: And I shall be resurrected as a statesman of eternal youth!

Played with it a bit (read: once). It didn't blow me away as hard as GFW, the danmaku also seems to be a step back from GFW (
Extra's non-spells, that's quite some intricate pattern there
). It's not bad, though, I'm definitely enjoying it as much as 10/11/12.
Music-wise, I think
S1, S2, S5 and S6
are not as strong as UFO's; the rest is very nice.

Just 1cc'd it on Easy with Reimu.
Funny that I had so much trouble with Yoshika and Seiga (a tad), but Futo and Miko I managed to flawlessly defeat with no lives lost. Did I mention I LOVED Seiga/Yoshika's battle theme? Futo's theme I also like because it has an old Japanese feel to it. I should attempt Normal again (even though I probably won't be able to beat the tanooki even if I manage to 1cc it on that difficulty).

And some people mentioned the game being a bit short. I felt that way too. Not sure why. I was more than a bit surprised when I got to the final stage seemingly quickly.

So the more I think about it the more it seems like
Team Miko is the antithesis to Team Byakuren.

Miko <-> Byakuren (Fear of death, attainment of superhuman powers, sealed away only to be resurrected)
Futo <-> Shou (Highly devout follower of the above, very focused on their religion)
Tojiko <-> Nazrin (Faithful servant/friend of the above)
Seiga <-> Ichirin (Another follower, though not as closely related as above)
Yoshika <-> Unzan (Trustworthy companion and double-team partner of the above)
Mamizou <-> Nue (Foreign youkai, able to change forms)

Leaves Murasa out of the equation, but otherwise works fine. I know it's probably not going to happen, but Byakuren vs. Miko would make an interesting Touhou 14.

edit: This is so weird, I moved the replay files from appdata/roaming/shanghai alice to my installation folder and now it works :s

Youmu's slash thing is kinda cool, but I just can't play her with any sort of proficiency. I keep fucking things up even on easy  with her.

Also, some guy on /jp/ said they were experimenting with the whole Ex stage glitch thing, apparently if you bomb during the end it will continue properly. Screws up people trying to capture it though.

Well Momizou does come from outside the border. From an island called Sado in fact (according to the manual).

With people going in as they please (Kanako even brought a whole lake with her...) the border is getting isn't really seperating much anymore. A game in the outside world doesn't seem too unlikely. It would be interesting to see how ZUN depicts the outside world.

Just as with the demo, I'm getting pretty good impressions from the game so far. So what if lower difficulties are supposedly easier? I don't play them. Lunatic is still as challenging as ever, meaning I'll actually have a reason to come out this break I've been taking. So far everything I've faced is actually a "fair" challenge, unlike, say, how Shou was. :V Quite a few attacks still trip me up, but I'm having fun learning them, so it's all good.

I'll need time to get more acquainted with the new music and characters, though I'm already digging the Stage 4 theme. I feel like
Miko's
theme is surprisingly underwhelming though. It's a shame, since I think her design is pretty badass otherwise.

And a massive "fuck you" to all those bugs. Seriously ZUN, how in the world did you miss some of these... Not to mention that quite a few bugs still remain from the trial version. Do you need to start hiring outside help to fix them on time or something?

Did
Miko's
last spellcard remind anyone else of
Perfect Freeze
?
Yes it did. And I did psyche myself into ramming bullets a few times
after they stopped
. But that was all before I had sufficient practice with the card, of course.

Agreed. I don't think Touhou ever had undead corpses,

Zun doesn't have a company working for him, he probably has as many testers as you have fingers on one hand, or less. Plus testing stuff on non-Japanese machines (applocale or not) is probably not exactly high priority.

Sure bugs suck, but with the amount of game breaking bugs existing in full blown multi-million commercial games out there, complain about Zun's? really? Ok, even complaining is fine, but to actually act like he's being lazy or something for not having them dealt with is another.

Youmu's a bit overpowered,  some of the music I don't find quite as listenable "by itself" as in previous games (But they fit the stages/bosses in play very well), and it is a little on the lack-of-resources side (That just might be me and my lack of Spirit World though)

Also
Goddamn, while extra stage is short and easy for once, the actual boss fight is driving me nuts.  I can barely capture the first card nevermind handle anything else.  And this is coming from someone who beat Ran and Suwako on first attempt...

Well that isn't exactly the complete extent of the power.

Since she died her power upgraded from listening to 10 people to listening to the people's 10 desires. By listening to them she can see trough people at Satori level. If they have all the desires at least. Apparently Youmu is missing 2 since she's half dead.

Well, the translation that we were given
specifically said Youmu had 8 desires, and didn't have the two desires associated with living/dying. This made Miko think she was a hermit or something like that I think, and also made her say Youmu was "incomplete".
But it's a few pages back... *Shudders*

and
Futatsuiwa From Sado (Ex Boss)
but the rest are pretty bland.

Same goes for the danmaku.
Either the spellcards are a color-less, random clusterfuck or just a very simple and thin layer of organized bullets. I am dissapointed...

I myself am happy I've pulled a hard 1cc in my first try.  Afterwards I wasn't able to do it again, not even on normal....

Right, can anyone explain to me what exactly these 10 desires are? Other than the two Youmu doesn't have, what are the others? And what religion is this based on?

To be honest my main problem with this game were the patterns. They just didn't stand out that much. We don't see nice bullet displays like Mountain of Faith and Wind God Hidden in Tree Leaves. The final bosses' first and sixth cards look rather bad to be honest, unlike the spells they seem based after. The other problem would be the music. While it is pretty good overall, I don't feel any tracks standing out. It's like you like some songs when you here them but you don't go "Damn, this is freaking awesome". Kinda like UFO, but I liked some UFO tracks very much after a while. Maybe I just have to listen to it more, but I still find the music in this game weaker.

Swirls of AA bullets are totally original and colorful, right. I've seen plenty better Danmakufu scripts posted here.

And I thought the patterns were the best he has made in a while too, at least compared to UFO.
Let's see ... rings, curvy laser rings; IN Extra-style cyclones; Eternal Meek
in the final fucking boss fight to boot
, that and the
sidekick
spell are the most well-thought
Stage 6 cards
in any Touhou game ever. Such complex and innovative patterns.
The only redeeming point is that this game doesn't use repeating bullet behavior (i.e. the 2nd wave is slightly different than the first, and so on).

It's not as bad as it sounds, I'm still having fun with the game but I can't shake the feeling of playing against reused patterns and really, REALLY simple Danmakufu spell cards anyone can whip up in 5 minutes.

Have you seen the extra? I'll be fucked if that isn't one of the most original and colorful extras ZUN has made.
Extra stage is actually mostly boring because you can kill most of the enemies before anything happens. Otherwise, leaving the enemies alone makes for some fun times.

As for the ten desires, it simply doesn't matter what the desires are. In both buddhism and taoism, a goal is to relieve yourself of all desire. Whether or not all human desire can be summed up in ten fundamental desires is irrelevant. I'm actually really starting to like the theme here, if only because
Miko talks about desire and detachment, yet her life has ironically been filled with her own desire and all of her downfalls have been due to those desires. And such.

On a technical level, yeah - a lot of the stuff is pretty basic.

But... at the same time it's refined about it, and when it's not being creative it's still being fun to play.  I definitely noticed myself moving and dodging spells in a lot of different ways this time instead of the same streaming/micrododging etc.

After playing through the last stage myself, it appears that the background isn't watery like I originally thought when I first saw it on the stream. 
The only water-related theme that I can find is Futo's boat.  If Reimu's conversation with Mamizou means anything, then maybe the next game will be water-themed.
  Not that I'm desperate to have water-themed Touhou game, mind you...

Noticed a small error

On the Stage 6 Spellcard 7, the position of the boss is near the center, but in Spell Practice she is close to the top of the screen.

The card would actually be much harder with her in the center yes? Because there would be less space to run about.

And a massive "fuck you" to all those bugs. Seriously ZUN, how in the world did you miss some of these... Not to mention that quite a few bugs still remain from the trial version. Do you need to start hiring outside help to fix them on time or something?

You sound pretty upset. Maybe you should ask for your money back.

So it seems the

has a  promissory note  with her.
Which is defined as a negotiable instrument, wherein one party (the maker or issuer) makes an unconditional promise in writing to pay a determinate sum of money to the other (the payee), either at a fixed or determinable future time or on demand of the payee, under specific terms.

Totally agreeing with you.
It seems to me that some comments here are unnecessarily harsh to the game, when the game impressed me a lot.

I mean, not every spellcard in the game has to have sophisticated programming behind it to make it great, right? Spellcard is more about the theme and pattern afterall.
Also, just because a spell is made just out of bullets with simple motion doesn't mean it's easy to make. There's loads of parameters that one can change to have the spell behave so differently that it takes a whole different approach to capture it. Then there's the difficulty in balancing the difficulty of the spell.

Gimmicks are plentiful throughout the game so I don't see how the spells are not memorable. Stage 5's spells were pretty, midboss's spell was so cool.
Then, ZUN has made thousands of spellcards probably throughout these years, so it's seems pretty unfair to pick whatever spell has similarity with old ones and call it unoriginal, when it's just similar concepts with different presentation. (and I think presentation is very important too,
Stage 5 boss's rain spell would be quite bland if it didn't have the whole boat riding theme wouldn't it?
)
It's quite impossible to expect ZUN to come up with like 50 new danmaku concepts for a game every year.
It's like calling Nue a Flan copycat when they are totally different characters with vast difference in personality and background.

I really liked
the details that were put into the spellcards where Yoshika has to be revived in stage 4, like being inserted life or something with Seiga's curve stream thingy in the first spellcard, Seiga floating on top of Yoshika as Yoshika floats upward in the 2nd card, etc)

Music-wise, I don't really like the style of the boss themes ZUN had, it's more boss-like, but makes it less awesome to listen outside of the game. :P The stage themes are really amazing, I can't stop listening to stage 4 theme's intro. XD

ZUN's putting more thought into the plot of the games isn't he? The character profiles this time are so unusually long and detailed O_O. The plot had me so confused too D: . I still can't comprehend what happened with the TD crew in the past after reading the character profiles...

and ZUN probably missed bugs because he only had one year since GFW to produce TD? As seen from the past, ZUN will release a patch very soon to fix major bugs anyways.

So I made a replay of stage 4 (http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=15198), but it causes the game to crash when it finishes. Anyone else get something like this?

I don't think it's that much less detailed than something like Kaguya's and Mokou's back-story could be.

Personally, it sounds like ZUN's been outright busy this whole year. I mean he mentioned someone about moving, not to mention the ground doing plenty of that. I haven't played it very much yet, but I'm a bit more willing with the slack this year considering.

Normal 1cc.

Thoughts:
This game requires the most memorization to date - whereas in other games you needed to memorize where enemies came in to kill them before they shot, but you could deal with not doing so, this game requires you to memorize where enemies spawn to get trance to get resources, which you cannot get away with ignoring. 
Lives are still hard to get, though the lowering was a nice touch.
CURVY LASERS
Music's a lot more ambient, especially the final boss.  Will need to listen more to form concrete opinions.  Only new track I've heard that I didn't like up front was the S5 boss.

10th spellcard. Is this even possible? :( I feel like it's totally skill and luck dependent, no type of trick or tactic you can use. Also, dog hitboxes are retarded.

Most spellcards have obvious derps.
Like S5 boss, the rain spell. Just following whatsherface across the screen on normal pretty much completely dodges it. It's possible to clear it without even looking at the bullets...
Easiest S5 boss ever, even with the bullshit zigzags.

For some funny reason, the only legit 1cc I made of Touhou was Mystic Square :V This should warm me up for the older Touhous.

Miko's third to last spellcard, was it? The one that looks like Eternal Meek. IMO this one is plenty easier. When I tried Eternal Meek, I pretty much found it a spray of random that was nearly impossible to dodge, and forcing you to use the bomb she wants you to...

That's one of my favorite cards, for exactly that reason.
Trying to time it  out on hard is a bitch to do though.
I was expecting bullets that size to have similar hitboxes to the white ones from SA (Danmaku Paranoia etc.), but they use the whole thing instead.

I think Miko's second-last and last cards should probably have been switched. The second-last one's a fair bit harder.

After playing for a while, I'm fine with the difficulty in this game. It's hard enought to be challenging (at least, for someone like me) while still being fun. Unlike UFO.

I'm pretty sure it wouldn't matter if you use the bomb Sakuya is making you use since she's giving you an extra one anyways. Just don't use two bombs and you'll be fine, for both EoSD and TD.

Times to capture each of Ten Desires Extra Boss's spellcards:
1/8 - 1/2 - 1/1 - 1/8 - 1/7 - 1/12 - 1/2 - 1/8 - ? - ?

Why is it that the game crashes when I try to select a spellcard that I haven't encountered on any difficulty?
(Tried to challenge the last two Ex spellcards that I haven't gotten to yet)

Yoshika's spellcards are actually pretty easy.

But her nonspell attacks are a pain.

As much as I love Youmu's slashes, I seem to have the greatest success with Sanae, followed by Reimu.

I just hope I don't have a repeat of UFO, where Sanae's dialogue makes me dislike her again. Someone posted a translated dialogue a few pages back, so I can check that out later. In the meantime, I just try to keep in mind that she's still young and with something to prove.

There's waaaaay too many bombs that you can get.
You could probably get like 2 full bombs off trancing the final stage alone...

Also, from stage 5 onward, is it just me or do the nonspells suddenly become un-fun? Then again, I jumped straight into Hard, so...

No :V Though I think
Tojiko
's is good and
Futo
's 2nd and 3rd non-spells can be quite deceiving.
Miko
's non-spells need more variation. Byakuren had four completely different non-spells.

Okay, this just got stupid, the guy I was talking earlier jus said that ZUN plagiated one of his character designs with
Mamizou
... Like if ZUN had the time to look into a facebook pag of a sorry  boy in Argentina, he doesn't know english well and he's going to read something in spanish? Even after explaining that it never can be plagiarism becouse he didn't even do anything with the characters, and that is a doujin work, he still believes that, I swear, that when I see him again, I will punch him so hard, that I will send him to the stone age.


On Topic: In a few days will arrive my copy, I asked a friend there to buy me one, and I'm waiting impatiently to have it in nmy hands.

designs for tanuki-Touhou chara OC
years before this game, even a custom girl mod. i found strange who another one no had accused him of copy them XD...
is like if i get?s angry because ZUN create Momiji (looks like a inugami, i have a male OC black inu named Akita) or Nitori (my one is half Kappa half Ningou, but whatever XD) or Byakuren or Satsuki (i had long time ago a OC final boss who was a mix of the two XD) even i feel happy for have that level of intuition.  :3

You simply have to kill the bomb-dropping fairies before them fast enough. You shouldn't need to use Trance or bombs to do it, provided you have enough Power.

I think they only appear if you've defeated the preceding enemies in a certain amount of time.

Note that if you save your trance and you manage to kill them all, you can quickly trance and eat up all the spirits for double value, then you still keep about 4 seconds of trance from being interrupted by dialogue.

He says that ZUN plagiated his character ability in "furry mode" and that ZUN ALSO plagiated a tanuki OC that he saw on borkbork.

I better quote the guy, sorry if you don't know spanish, I'll translate it

Quote
Yo dije (especificamente) que copio una habilidad (habilidad exclusiva de forma FURRY) de uno de mis personajes y que "casualmente" es la misma especie.

No es por nada, pero a exepcion de la Tanuki (que ahi si te valgo lo del fanchara, por obviedad) la mayoria de los charas nuevos son (como dije y seguire diciendo) fusiones/recolores/clones/​etc.

No voy a presumir ni hacerme el agrandado ni nada por el estilo, pero por como yo imagine a mis personajes y como los dibujo Pinky (mi novia por cierto) dudo que sea posible (aun si me stalkease) que plagiase completamente, salvo que haga como en el caso de la Tanuki, que a mi parecer, lo unico que le cambio fue la ropa y le a?adio lentes... :l (aqui no cuentan furries, por que mas alla de Orin y Genji, carece de los mismos).

EDIT: Translation

Quote
I said (specifically) that he copied an ability (exclusive of FURRY mode) of one of my characters and that "casually" is the same species.

It's nothing, but excepting the Tanuki (there, obviously is valid), most of the new characters are (as I said and will say) fusions/recolored characters/clones, etc.

I'm not going to show off or act fancy or anything, but as I pictured my characters and how Pinky draw them (my girlfriend by the way) I doubt that it's possible (even if he stalked me) that he plagiarized them completely, unless that he daoes like with the Tanuki, that, in my opinion, he just changed her clothes and added glasses... :| (here furries doesn't count, becouse Orin and Genji, it doesn't have)

there's 5 fairies that drops life/bomb points before Kyouko Midboss
and there's 7 Fairies that drops life/bomb points before Kyouko Boss
You have to kill the fairies fast so I suggest using Trance to kill the last set of fairies since You probably won't have enough spirits to fill up again if you killed the first 5 fairies with trance

Can't imagin ZUN liking furry stuff since he never drew furry girls. For the animal girls in touhou they're either 90% loli (because of ears and tails) or an animal (Orin's cat form).

Also from my limited understanding of what the guy said thanks to google translate I can tell that if this guy presses C right now he'll get 10 seconds of delusion time.

That Zun plagiarism claim is absolutely ridiculous. The only thing similar is the tail, the leaf, and the brown hair. In the case of the first two, that's what a tanuki is generally depicted to have. It's like saying that Chen was a ripoff of Coku because she has cat ears and twin tails. Also tanukis are brown, so brown hair is a given, and the hair style must be purely coincidental.

Miko's resurrection is causing an uproar in the youkai world for reasons unclear to me, and they're summoning powerful outside youkai like Mamizou to prepare a defense against her.
This is also the first time in the entire series that
the story wasn't entirely resolved by the end of the extra stage. In fact, it just seemed to further my suspicions that Miko is going to play a larger role than just being the catalyst for the next game's events.

I don't like this trio.

Seiga deceives her family (by faking her own death) in order to train to become a hermit; and while she does become one, she reached her goal on malicious terms, and Heaven doesn't accept her. Miko goes through her life pursuing immortality because she doesn't like that humans are fated to die. So, Seiga finds her and she takes up taoism, in which one of the fundamentals is that you get rid of the fear of death and desire for life, or rather, not going towards the goal of immortality. She tries to cheat and ruins her body while achieving superhuman powers.  Futo, who belongs to a family of powerful shintoists, practiced taoism in secret and later met up with Miko. The three of them (well, Seiga only suggested the plan, she already was a hermit) plot to have Japan ruled by buddhism to keep Japan passive so that they alone can achieve immortality, and Futo manipulates a powerful political faction to become followers of buddhism. So now a religious war starts, the emperor dies of an illness and suddenly woahshit it's the shintoists' faults. Buddhism rules the country and tons of people die, all because these three want to become something of gods. Miko, having ruined her body, doesn't think she can wait long enough to become immortal, so she cheats again by becoming a shikaisen. But first, because she's a pussy, she tells Futo to die with her. Futo goes "oh ok I can be immortal too" and they get ready to fall asleep. Miko fakes it so she can watch Futo to make sure that she won't actually die if she falls asleep, awesome friend, and then she goes ahead. Then the buddhists build a fucking temple on her grave because they're pretty sure she was a manipulative bitch. Miko goes "oh well I guess I can just resurrect when I can take advantage of my awesome skills to lead the people", but whoops, after a while people stopped believing she existed and her grave winds up in Gensokyo, whereupon Byakuren builds another fucking temple. So now Miko's pissed and resurrects so she can get rid of everything (i.e. youkai) that keeps her from being supreme leader of all humans.

what a bunch of bitches

Miko fakes it so she can watch Futo to make sure that she won't actually die if she falls asleep, awesome friend, and then she goes ahead. Then the buddhists build a fucking temple on her grave because they're pretty sure she was a manipulative bitch. Miko goes "oh well I guess I can just resurrect when I can take advantage of my awesome skills to lead the people", but whoops, after a while people stopped believing she existed and her grave winds up in Gensokyo, whereupon Byakuren builds another fucking temple. So now Miko's pissed and resurrects so she can get rid of everything (i.e. youkai) that keeps her from being supreme leader of all humans.

what a bunch of bitches

something wrong smells in the reign of Gensokyo, and no are chesse. i smell
HOLY WAR.

Good synopsis Drake.

So yeah the religious factions in Gensokyo are getting interesting. Two shinto, one buddhist, and now one taoist. I would think Miko's faction isn't particularly threatening, since several heroines suggest Futo wasn't hard to beat. Meanwhile, Byakuren's faction just keeps getting bigger, she got two new members without even appearing in this game. Having Miko get them all riled up could get very messy!

Speaking of Byakuren, I'm sure Kanakers is pretty annoyed that right after she arrives in Gensokyo to gather the faith of the youkai, Byakuren shows up and does a better job of it (and it was her own fault Byakuren was unsealed lol). Has Kanako commented on the situation in any of Sanae's endings?

And Reimu just keeps being Reimu :V

Actually, I'm more concerned about Suwako myself. If you've read the wiki on the new characters,
there's a Moriya member who gets offed over political thanks to Soga. That's if Suwako's family name is related to this Moriya clan.

Either way, this isn't looking very pretty...

Quote
She served Miko together with Futo, but she was denied resurrection as a human due to her previous connections with Futo. It would be more convenient for Futo to deal with her as a spirit.
The Soga and the Mononobe had fought long and hard over Buddhism, but Futo and Tojiko's relationship is still in good terms, and took on a give-and-take nature.
Now, they both hate Buddhism.

IIRC, in one of Sanae's good endings,
Either Kanako or Suwako note that people are happy with Byakuren's temple but says she doesn't trust Byakuren's temple and that they'll have to keep an eye on it.
.  I could be wrong, it's been a long time.

Wow, but I wish I could read the endings to this game.  Most of the time you can infer the endings for the most part (just assume that it's a happy ending) but this time I really wonder what the heck happened at the end of all this.  Even the extra story prologue doesn't really indicate what the final resolution was, although it does confirm that
Byakuren already knew about them, which is why she had the temple built there in the first place
.  Course, Futo and company figured that
Byakuren already knew, too, which is why they called her the dark lord, lol
.  The most I could gather from the extra story prologue was that
Miko's still alive and her "house" is still around, since Marisa wants to rob it
.

(and we'll even get to see more Moriya vs. Myoren vs. Hakurei vs. th13's lolis action)

Oh, and Nue's last spellcard is pretty similar to Flandre's "And then there will be none". More Nue = Flandre evidence for the fanbase!~

I realized that, if Trance'd at the right moment, you'll get a bunch of bombs. On a near perfect run in Normal, I got 5 lives and ohgodsomany bombs. That means, in order to successfully Ten Desires, one must learn how to not waste bombs. Use bombs wisely, my friends. BV

Though I can see it as a normal hand now. And then the crazy idea [I think some religions see it this way as well?] of using your left hand for doing shenanigans is bad, which then lead to me saying "Miko, you're trying that hard to be a saint, aren't ya?" 8U But then again I got this idea late at night when I should've been sleeping.

Presumably Nue told her about Reimu and what Reimu's job entails.  Her dialogue with Reimu and Sanae indicates she was very aware of the Hakurei Shrine Maiden before they arrived.  However, she had yet to SEE this Hakurei Shrine Maiden, as she mistakes Sanae to be the Hakurei Shrine maiden in her dialogue with Sanai.

Basically, Nue etc told her about Reimu, but she still hadn't seen or met Reimu in person yet (hence mistaking Sanai for Reimu)

...that doesn't explain how she knew how to transform into Reimu while fighting Sanae, though.  Hmm.

Miko has the most spellcards out of any stage 6 bosses

Also, in regards to the final boss' art, it's possible that the left hand is drawn correctly, and we're seeing the pinky instead of the thumb. ...That is one painful position to be in, but the same could be said for Byakuren's dislocated shoulder in UFO. :V

were the most fun I had in the game; captured them on my first try. What caught me by surprise was stage 5 midboss'
zigzag arrows
and
Miko's double gold ring thingys which I think it was her second spellcard
...

I also noticed that the dagger-type danmaku has a smaller hitbox than the older ones and
the Boss icon thing that's usually at the bottom of the screen's gone
. Idk whether the latter is a bug or a feature.

Hmm... Any idea when to Trance outside boss battles to get the best out of the purple/green spirits? Also, how many Extends do you guys usually get? I got 3 so far...

Just save Trance for when said bomb/life-fragment fairies appear. You may need to run through Stage Practice so you remember where they all are, but you can get quite a few extra bombs this way. Using up bombs during bosses also means you can get an extra Trance or two to capitalize on the bomb/life drops after Spellcards.

I remember I just barely reached the fifth Extend (18 fragments) before the end of my Lunatic run. You kinda have to work for it, but TD gives almost as many lives as EoSD and MoF. ZUN himself recognized that this game still gives fewer lives overall though. :V

It's interesting to see that
the plot of the Touhou games is starting to evolve from simply "someone starts incident, Reimu and co. beat her up, everyone becomes friends and has tea."  If we have a HOLY WAR on our hands, it'll probably be fleshed out in more detail in Touhou 14.  That, or the plot will be resolved in a decimal game (Touhou 13.5?), so that ZUN can use a new plot for the next shmup.

If that's the case, another fighter would be nice.  I wanna see Yoshika vs. Yuyuko, Miko vs. Byakuren, and Mamizou vs. Ran. :]

I think Yoshika wouldn't show up considering we have Seiga now, no?  It'd be fun to go dual-character and use both at the same time though!

Also I'm spoiling all my posts instead of just the names and all 'cause I'm lazy, sorry~

Now that you mention it, that does sound fun (especially if she were to fight just like Carl from BlazBlue... except with
Yoshika
instead of a doll/robot).
I demand crossover fanart. NOW! :getdown:

Carl's only counterpart is Alice, case closed.  :V

But indeed, it would be interesting to see that kind of gameplay in a Touhou game.  :3

I was thinking that a new manga would be more suitable if a

I agree.

Hmm...
If there was a Holy War, it would be the opening for bringing back a lot of characters from the past. (It would at least give some reason to bring back Shinki, since she's Makai's leader.) Of course, I would be worried such a thing would signal the coming of the end of the series.

I finally figured out what is wrong (I still like them) with the new characters: for the second time ever, none of them has
long hair
. The first time if you count Su-san's PMiSS appearance. (Why is her name never mentioned anywhere on my Google's internet if Danbooru wiki claims that it's her commonly used, even almost canonical name? What do we call her if not that? Medicine's doll? Medicine's original form?) Weird, in ZUN's earlier works there were more girls with them than without them. Maybe
a spanish speaking fan made a fan game where all of his OCs (don't steal!) had short hair?

By the way. The final spell card of stage 5 is the best in the entire game.

Mamizou Futatsuiwa -> Futatsuiwa -> Futa Two Stones -> Two stones, one bird -> It's "Two birds one stone", n00b! -> But her name is "Two stones, one futa" :/ -> Wait, futa is short for futanari... -> SUDDENLY, 2 GIRLS 1 CUP MEETS TOUHOU
FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUU-

Also, some people mentioned the possibility of
Mamizou being partially based on ZUN, but what if it's the other way round: ZUN is a (different) tanuki shapeshifted into human? We could easily prove or disprove that, does anyone have picture of his... nevermind   :X

Futa isn't short for futanari, futa literally means 2. The futa in futanari means 2. So the name is split into futatsu which means 2 and iwa which means stone or rock.
It's a reference to location in Sado (Where she's from) that has a lot of tanuki in it.

we need less TSS (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HsIggxkrNvU) (ZUN made a Touhou x TSS in PoDD, then played around with the mechanics of TSS in PoFV).

What we need is this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYBSeeQgJ_4).

Wonder if the next game will be a "consequence" of 10D. If you look at EoSD, PCB and IN, they seemingly could happen at any order, story-wise, if not counting for the playable characters. I have yet to check the story behind 10D, to see if there's really a storyline chain going from MoF to 10D.

Considering that 10D continues right after UFO and the 10D gang has a vendetta against Byakuren, it could continue on.

This is a universal glitch among us. ZUN will no doubt patch the game at some point, but until then there's a workaround. For whatever reason, if you are bombing while the spell card ends, the game won't crash. So, try and keep at least a bomb in reserve until the last three seconds of the spell card, and let it loose. That should solve your problem.

Quote from: ZUN
The hardest difficulty, Lunatic, is ready for the credit count (continue count) to be increased, so you should probably trying continuing as much as you need to clear it first. That will make things show up in Practice and Spell Practice, and it would be faster to practice there. Definitely.

Not sure if anyone did, but I'll back it up. You can activate Trances within the death-bomb window and not lose a life. Also not sure if this applies to anyone else, but back in the demo I used to refer to Trances as a result of dying as "death-Trance", so there's potentially confusion there. I've taken to calling the latter "suicide-Trances" (even if your death isn't willing :V) to differentiate it.

the game turned out to be quite fun, even if it did feel easier. the music grew on me fast, sounds refreshing with some hints of older tracks ever now and then. plot-wise
im guessing this game would be the second installment in the UFO trilogy (?) with the next game centred on the ultimate showdown between byakuren and miko?

also TD-related (spoiler tags dont seem to work with links, so proceed with caution),

That's Mamizou? I saw that picture before but didn't think it was her. orz
Speaking of fanart, am I a bad person for drawing Futo with shorts instead of that blue skirt? .~.;

Er, I must be missing something. What's all this about
Mamizou and mainstream
?

Somewhere along the line people decided that
Mamizou is a hipster
.

There might have been a semidecent reason, but I forgot what it was :V

Aw man, why'd they have to go and ruin a character like that?  And just when I'd started to get over
Mamizou's goofy appearance (it was starting to seem charming to me)...

I do not and will not think of her as a hipster.

Pics are still somewhat amusing, though.

The game's been out for three days and people already started to forget how stuff came to be? Scary.  :ohdear:

Well, can't really see how she could pass a hipster vibe(besides something related to shapeshifting). I'm more surprised at the lack of jokes related to a tanuki's er.... features.

Yeah, not sure where people are getting hipster from. She came across to me as more worldly than anything.

I didn't really like
Mamizou
's  design from the get-go, and still think it's one of the goofiest ZUN's ever done, but considering the personality of the rest of the new characters she's easily my favorite of the new lot. >.> (of course, Yoshika is still queen among everyone in 10D, no questions asked)

Take it easy, people  :yukkuri:, it's just the glasses.  It's not a serious "joke" I'm making here.  I just thought it would be funny. :V

I did it for the lulz. :blush:

Jokes aside, I really like her personality, though. 
And the tenacity she had to come up with "Pseudo-Exorcism of the Stupid Shrine Maiden", insulting Reimu right in her face. xDDD

Honestly, I see her as the big sister-type. The kind that acts as if she knows better than you do just because she's older.

When I heard she was a Tanuki, I thought she would change into whatever character you were playing as, and not just Reimu. The spell card name is still funny, anyway.

To Ran's dismay. :V
Besides the
rivalry between Tanukis and foxes, something related to being nice to Chen? At least I can see such situation.

What about the Yukkuris? They might be really weird this round. Totally.

At first glance, the music might seem a bit out-of-Touhou. I eventually took a great liking to them ;)

lol I'm pretty sure it's because of the severel lack of ZUNpets on the later stages but nonetheless I loved the music more than other games  :o

This.
You'd think she'd make up something else for the other characters besides Reimu.

Man, finally. In case anyone was wondering what affects the ending you get,
Endings 2/4/6/8 are secret "parallel endings" and you get them if you 1CC Normal or higher with 3+ bombs left.
Thanks to some random Japanese blogger for figuring that one out. Somehow.

Also,
Mamizou is just a powerful old lady (not the Yukari kind). Whatever fans do with her, there's really no debating this.

Whoa, what? That's...actually pretty harsh when you think about what that requirement asks from you. But I am interested~ Very interested~

On another note, I love how
Mamizou
doesn't even show how she has bomb immunity. Until now every extra boss after Evil Eye Sigma showed something that showed why bombs were ineffective, from shields to transformations to fazing out of existence. Here, it's just "no sale!"

When your ability is to listen to ten people speaking at once, it's hard to manipulate desires. :V Plus, a trickster can't manipulate desires

Actually, I think those requirements aren't accurate. I just played through normal and 1cc'd with three bombs in stock. I got ending 3 for it. Hmm...

Another reason for fandom to pit Mamizou vs. Ran. :3  And fanboys (and fangirls) will be divided by the everlasting question....."Whose 'big fluffy tail' do you wanna squeeze?"  inb4fandomwar (/joking)

But yeah, it does look quite fluffy.....and squeezable....

Well, it could be
4+ bombs, or maybe even higher than that.
That's just what the blog said, and I'm not willing to test what the exact requirements are since I've already played through enough times just to see each ending once.
But having a ton of bombs at the end has been working for me so far, so I'm pretty confident that part's right.

Nah. It unlocks a second loop, but only if you cleared with only one death and less than two bombs as well.

Looking on ZUNs twitter, he seems to be working hard on some of the bugs right this moment, so they are surely going to be fixed soon.
I only got so much out of the google translation, but it seems quite clear.
