Fluke dodges are apparent. There's at least 3 or 4 in the stage portion alone (you'll know when you see them), and more during Mokou (got lucky with positioning right before the end). It's my first time ever reaching Mokou, so don't mind my bad playing.

Once on a run in IN , I was like "EIRIN CANT YOU HELP ME WIN AND DIE ALREADY??" and then I dodged everything.

Decided to mess around with "Polygraph" with more No Vertical fun. The result?

A couple of these. See those bullets? I fly right through them. And then gap back and die. Clearly not worth it unless I can find a way to abuse this.

I was fooling around in PCB Normal on one of Youmu's fail non-spells (or was it a failcard?), and I decided to see how long I could stand in one place without dying.  I managed about 15 seconds and was really surprised that nothing hit me during that time.  Not sure if that counts as dodging, but it is fun to see the bullets dodge Sakuya instead of the other way around.

Not sure if this counts, but I lost my last life in MoF running up to the PoC to get point items, hopefully an extend. I got the point extend while dead  :V.

I could've failed to capture VoWG the first time (but I'm glad I captured it already, which was, in fact, two months ago).

Very close call, if you ask me.
Current ambition: NBND VoWG timeout.  Best run: NB1D

I moved to the right, went between those two bullets, and survived. (Yes I'm playing on Easy, I was doing a demonstration for a friend... not like I can beat Normal without bombspam anyway)

Not touhou, but it's a shmup and it's more ridiculous than most stuff here. A picture wouldn't be enough here.

This one was actually planned, but I was 1 pixel off death from 3 bullets at once.

Fast forward to Suwako's first time-out card. I could swear I mindlessly dashed right through the row of danmaku around the 29 second mark. It was my first time playing this one, so I didn't know how best to misdirect it, and that "dodge" came up randomly.

This makes me giggle.  It was my first 1CC of PCB normal, and with pulling stunts like that, I am not sure how I managed...

Fast forward to Kuzui Clear Water, around 49 seconds left. I forgot to check where the green knives were heading, so I had absolutely no idea where they were. I somehow survive those and the blue knives at the same time.

Yay, unintentionally cleared Unseasonable Butterfly Storm. I meant to demonstrate the insanity of this spell card to my brother but instead somehow found a safe spot and sat there shooting until I won. Record: 1/11

Monday, Feb 15th, 2010, Virtue of Wind God.

This filled me with a sense of nostalgia and made me want to look back at my first VoWG capture.  Seeing it with my now well-trained Lunatic eyes, I notice that many dodges were utter stupidity, being some sort of squeeze that I wouldn't even consider trying to fit into today.  I should have died.  I should have died a lot.

Alternatively, take everything before VoWG and insert it into the Most Embarrassing Thread.
Whether you're on Easy or you're a Lunatic, be damn proud of your accomplishments.  Don't let anyone convince you otherwise, for it's when you lose faith in your own achievements that those victories become defeats.

A million years ago back when I was trying to no focus 1cc EoSD Lunatic Rumia would often do silly things to me. Like trap me against the side of the screen with her silly random bullet walls. Most of the time I died, but one of the times I was just like "whatever" and no focus dashed through all the bullets.

Something that might be slightly more meaningful to you lot (and substantially more luck base now that I think of it) is 00:52 here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1MR9jOpH94

Reimu uses a coat of bullets to keep her warm during the cold winter.
