Considering that I haven't captured the second to last card yet and I have like 4/15 on the others.....Ichirin is really much harder than Murasa.
If only Shou wasn't so clippy to the extent that every single attack requires a bomb....
Ichirin harder than Murasa? I don't think so.
Ichirin have a bunch of rather simple non-spells, two spellcards that are sort of easy and of course the shitty first one that not only obscures your sight but shakes the screen as well. (Excellent design there Junya-san.)
Murasa's spellcards (not counting the first one) is more difficult than Ichirin. The second one have screwed me over way too many times (it took me longer to cap the Lunatic version than it took me to cap VoWG.) and the third one is just outright confusing. I'm told to read it and dodge accordingly but i just don't know how to tell which direction those bullets are going.
So yeah, Murasa's more difficult than Ichirin. Ichirin is just having the benefit of having a shitty first spell and an absolutely horrible stage.
Though contradictory to the above, i did die two times on Ichirins second card during my 1cc and got an almost perfect Murasa battle because i had no bombs... and i finished with four lives. Seriously Banana, its not that hard to do. Its just frustrating as hell when you have to restart.
PS. MarisaB UFO extra clear. Absolutely terrible girl for that stage. Sucks to the core. But now that she's out of the way there is only ReimuB...
PPS: Almost Perfect Kogasa battle at Lunatic. Died twice to shitty non-spell (no.2) but captured all cards, the final two with 2.xx power. That stage two boss is inferior to all the others. She forgets that there is a limit to how powerful a stage 2 boss should be.
I guess this line doesn't make any sense anymore.
It was nothing special. I mean, she's still a Stage 2 boss after all.
