No focus, no shooting SA Easy.  With ReimuC.

Also did no-glasses Mokou.  Phoenix Tail is just a giant blur of red, and Imperishable Shooting is pretty much impossible.

Capture Hourai Elixer on Normal or higher with solo Youmu unfocused.  Be shooting at all times.
I'd like to add to that: Hourai Elixir, Youmu, constant shooting, no focus, and as soon as the blue arrow bullets disappear (at about 50 seconds left), move above the PoC and stay above it for the rest of the card.

Also, Youmu solo, constant shooting, no focus, and no vertical on Kaguya's 3rd Last Spell, Normal or higher. (Spell Cards 181~183)
Here's mine, on Normal: http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5454

I'd also like to see someone do Kaguya's other Last Spells (other than the first, which is too easy) with Youmu solo, constant shooting, and no focus.

[Edit: Oops. My mind somehow mushed together "no vertical" and "only horizontal" to spit out "no vertical".]

I'm never doing that again.

Um guys you still have work to do.  Hop to it. :V
Hard mode!

I might give Lunatic a few attempts for fun but I highly doubt I'll manage it. :V
Let's fight.

Holy crap, awesome. I must ask, how many tries did that take you? 'Cause I'm at 101 and still counting with Lunatic.

Hard only took me 12 tries, though: http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5481

I have to wonder if it would be harder or easier to do it with constant focus instead of no focus...

Way too many.  I don't even remember because I did it with vertical movements first (that took two tries), then wasted time trying towards the left side where the bullets aren't as dense (IT DOESN'T WORK), then actually ended up doing it twice because I forgot to save the replay the first time.

Then I went back and did Hard in two tries after I finished with Lunatic  :V

Also it's definitely easier with 100% focus.  Much easier.

Easy twitch victory.

No Vertical is the way to go. How about trying "Fantasy Seal -Concentrate-" on Easy? I even have a demonstration for you. Kick it up a difficulty or three if you're feeling like a moron confident. No Focus is entirely optional as usual.

UFO Easy no-vertical.

I say Easy because Murasa's survival makes anything above that impossible. And, uh, anything Shou does.

I guess normal and higher would have to have exceptions for that card.

More IN spell-practice goodness:

1.) Time out Evil Sealing Circle on Easy by dodging within this spot:


This spellcard series is quite the goldmine for challenges actually.  There are tons of different safespots on each difficulty that would probably be interesting to try.

2.) Visionary Tuning no-vert.  Easy is fairly doable while Normal is fucking impossible.  Don't let that stop you from trying though! ;)

There was a patch for it on the old site a couple months before it was closed down.

I don't think I have it anymore. It was pretty hard to use; the buttons were placed rather awkwardly, you wouldn't move as smoothly, and you would fly straight across the screen by moving the mouse just a little bit.

MoF/VoWG any difficulty, within the outer layer of the bullet flower.
Don't even try to capture it, just make it through somehow.
The fun part is that a capture is theoretically possible~ anyone willing to TAS this?

This has already been done by Drake (not a capture, but it's still very possible)

Oh yeah, I could just stay on the outer layer, but that's boring.

yes

EDIT: Mind I only did one wave because it's REALLY FUCKING HARD

Just search if you want to find something I haven't done yet.

Yeah, I flirted around with it as well. Multiple waves are possible to do, but dodging from the top of the screen isn't very easy to do, even with TAS.

Reference: http://replays.gensokyou.org/download.php?id=5509 (1 wave cleared; "almost" 2)

If you use Slow Mode Play, then you'll see what I was putting myself through.

Well even though its only one wave it's still very impressive and mind boggling to me.
