The only tips that can be given for Gensokyo are: stay under the boss, trust in the hitboxes of the bubbles, and pray, hope, plead that she doesn't send a wall at you.
If you have no bombs and you're trapped in a tight formation of bullets with a bubble flying at you, rush in one direction, sometimes you make it out o_O
For Meister, you want to misdirect the first wave a bit, then feint the 2nd wave to the far side of a gap, climb out of the mess of bullets and repeat. that's what I do anyway, but I haven't captured it on Lunatic yet so *shrug*. (nor have I captured Gensokyo, but I've survived several 'dense' waves in a row, so it's just a matter of time imo)

thanks, I tried to remember this as I got to her today, didn't exactly remember what you said though. I went something along the lines of "ok start left, then work right after the initial shot. ok 2 shots, or whatever, ok nice 360, go right now.. WTF 2nd wave already? omg heeelp meee.. Needless to say I did not own that spellcard.
I want to 1 cc hard but seems like I just can't cuz of retarded stupid mistakes I shouldn't be doing. Very frusterating. None of the encounters seem to be remotely as hard as the extra stage, which I managed to do. Probably just have more memorizing to do I guess. Sometimes I die more than I should on stage 3 forgetting about those kunai stream fairies, very annoying, or I'll die cuz I'm too cocky. I'll be like oh yeah I pawnt extra, this is a piece of cake, I'll just fly up to the point of collection and get these points since this is brain-dead easy *gets owned by monsters that I should have known would spawn there and own me but I forgot about*. siighh.
Seriously though 1ccing hard should be easy compared to beating the extra stage right?

Meh I cleared all the extras (except SA but I haven't cleared hard in that yet so there's still time!) before 1ccing hard in each respective game. I think they're easier - perhaps simply because they're shorter.
Drake:
There's more room for error in a 1cc run, that's all.
The direction switch in Scarlet Meister is really fast; you don't have much time to get out of the wave before another one.

Same here. I didn't 1cc a Hard (MoF was my first) until after clearing all the Extras.
