I'm in ur threadz, postin ur questions

What is your favorite theme from the Touhou Project?

The be-all and end-all of themes for you, the one that you can never skip when it comes on on shuffle, the one that makes you grind that boss into the ground just to hear it...yeah, that one.  For me, it's still Lunar Clock ~ Luna Dial, Sakuya's EoSD theme.  Pure.  Bloody.  Awesome.

Massive HMs go to absolutely everything else (it's Touhou, after all), but particular ones to Mokou's theme and SA S5.

Casket of Star, Septette, and Cosmic Mind.

Locked Girl seems to be pretty freaking close though. The others don't actually make me go fight the boss they belong to to hear them, but Locked Girl... Something about it tends to make me wanna go fight Patchy.

...This is scary. Patchy scored just behind Remi, Mari, and Byaku on my Touhou character sort, and now her theme is directly behind theirs? What.

Gaaaah, that's incredibly hard.

I can't pick just one, but it's definitely from the PC-98 era. Probably one of Alice's themes.

Locked Girl and Mysterious Mountain.

Though a few times I've thought to myself "My life needs more Necro Fantasy, let's go kick Ran's ass" as well.

HM to Doll of Misery.

It's hard for me to choose between Last Remote and UFO Romance in the Night Sky.
I think I'll choose UFO Romance because it fits the stage more, and I like the cheerful atmosphere. :V It goes so well with the stage, especially love the part where Kogasa comes in with the laugh in the background music.  ;P

Memory of Forgathering Oriental Dream (Arrange) from the IaMP OST fights a bloody battle against The Eternal Steam Engine. Results due on December 31st, when the UNL OST comes out with the full TESE.

I love ending themes.

HM to Lullaby of Deserted Hell. And Gensokyo The Gods Loved.

(Forgive the rant, but this is a big question. Also bear with my reasoning, I still only own one game).

Unlike other questions, I'm not going to judge purely on musical value, but on the song's value as a theme; now well does the song do its job. With that in mind, my winner is

The Gensokyo the Gods Loved

This song screams "paradise," which seems to be the unofficial nickname for Gensokyo, and the stage itself does this perfectly, starting off with a pure red-orange background before opening up to the base of the mountain: a beautiful river surrounded by the colors of the season. The main chorus halfway through (midboss) with the trumpet and piano is one of the most triumphant and beautiful in the series, and marks one of the only times outside of Nuclear Fusion that I like Zun trumpets. The post-chorus flourish perfectly illustrates the large fairy counter-attack and storm of bullets that accompany. Overall, this theme describes it's stage, and Touhou as a whole, perfectly.


Honorable Mentions

Luna Dial- Lunar Clock: Musically among the weakest in EoSD, but as Sakuya's boss theme when played with the fight it fits. The normally stoic maid comes at the intruder with everything she has, and the music drives this point home sharply (get it? Sharp? Point? Kni- *shot*)

Green Eyed Jealousy: It's very, very rare that a boss theme accentuates the boss herself, but this song does it. And the remixes? These two propelled her from near bottom-of-barrel into my top 5.

There are many other great themes, mostly anything I've already voted on. Nuclear Fusion, Primal Scene, Illusionary Night, UFO Romance. So many good songs in this series! :V

SADIST!! That's impossible to answer!!!

It would be like getting asked which one of your kidneys you'd rather have smashed. Zun would know how that felt after running into Kefit... or maybe that's just my theory...

You can get YOUR left smashed! And you better suck it up and take your beating! Zun tried to flee but Kefit caught up with him and bodyslammed him... according to my theories.

If this includes stage themes, Tommorow Will be Sunny, Yesterday Was Not from Mountain of Faith

If it only includes character themes, then I really have no idea.

It's extremely hard to choose just one, but The Gensokyo the Gods Loved hooked me on Touhou's music the first time I ever played it, and I still love it to this day.
nintendonut888: Hey Baity. I beat the high score for Sanae B hard on the score.dat you sent me. X3
Baity: For a moment, I thought you broke 1.1billion. Upon looking at my score.dat, I can assume that you destroyed the score that is my failed (first!) 1cc attempt on my first day of playing. Congratulations.

This might be a bit of an unexpected choice, but I'd have to go with Complete Darkness. No other themes give me the same feeling of an absolutely life-or-death battle. Unlike most of the other final boss themes, it's got very few quirks - it's a pure, unadulterated good versus evil battle, and is all the more effective (and awesome) for it.

HMs to Heian Alien, Nuclear Fusion and Lost Dream. :V
