SA Normal bawwing ahead.
Using Marisa C I have a pretty awesome run through the first four stages with only one life lost to Yuugi. Satori takes a life, and then Orin rapes me.
I beat Orin with 4 lives, but then I have a death to the spirits.
So I manage to no-death Utsuho all the way up to Heaven and Hell or whatever, with 4/5 life pieces. "If I can not die here, I'll have one more life..."
Right as I hear the near-death popping, I get hit.
3 lives, final spellcard can't be that painful. I've beaten it quite a lot with Reimu C.
