...Can we please change topic?

I remember that one time I said Touhou games aren't so buggy. The Lunarians have proved me wrong.

Speaking of Lunarians, looks like Sakuya really was from the moon.

EDIT: And just now I notice the multiple Kaguyas. Though Eirin spinning around to move is an entertaining sight.

And Hakurei Reimu was from Sado. Are you going to imply Mamizou is a liar?

I've been brainstorming character themes for 13.5 though I feel like it might not be worth it since the UFO and TD characters don't have many choices and therefore really obvious. Though I guess it might be alright to think of the genres.

  • Reimu: Dichromatic Lotus Butterfly~Red and White. I know that 'Soku had Ancients, but it's different enough and could be arranged in a different style.
  • Marisa: Magus Night.
  • Sanae: Primal Scene of Japan the Girl Saw.
  • Nazrin: Tiny, Tiny Clever Commander.
  • Ichirin and Unzan: Their boss theme. Sky Ruin might have merit
  • Murasa: Captain Murasa. Though her stage theme could be used similarly to how Suwako's stage theme was in Soku
  • Shou: Rural Makai City Esoteria. Tiger Patterned Bishamonten is kind of similar to Old Distant Hermit and it's a pretty interesting theme
  • Byakuren: Emotional Skyscraper~Cosmic Mind. Obviously.
  • Nue: Heian Alien. It needs to be as strange and otherworldly as possible
  • Seiga and Yoshika: A combination of both of their themes would be cool
  • Futo: The Hall of Dreams' Great Mausoleum. Though her boss theme might be more appropiate
  • Miko: True Administrator. Full stop.
  • Keine: I could go either way

@Hass: Oh wow. I've had the game freeze up because it loaded Suika on Mokou's stage. Or maybe it was the other way around. Or maybe it was Yukari. I don't know, I just know something went wrong.

@Akyuu: Now, lets not forget one thing. Akyuu writes the Chronicles of Gensokyo. Also, I don't believe there is any indication that she is ineffective in the arts of fighting or magic. All you really now is that she has a short lifespan.

Everything is relative.

I'm sorry, what. It has to be Legend of the Great Gods.

Don't make me link this again

Seiga and Yoshika: A combination of both of their themes would be cool
Rigid Paradise or nada.

Marisa: Magus Night.
I'd actually like to see Dimensional Dream, since it's her only pre-EoSD theme that hasn't appeared in the Windows series.

Plus listen to it. It'd be great in a fighting game.

Right. I was just trying to get some variety between the stage and boss themes.

I did think of Dim. Dream though. Magus Night was just a personal preference thing. Marisa just has so many themes to choose from.

Dimensional Dream is the worst of her themes though

True. I don't care much for Casket of Star that much though.

Although...

Selene's Light.

Speaking of which... replaying Genius of Sappheiros. The Forest of Magic has a weird, trippy, psychedelic theme, and I could never understand what it was supposed to be. Then it turned out to be the above:

Hmm, Witching Dream might not be bad for Reimu.

Out of context, that just sounds pretty cheesy to me.

[up]x5 I think it's well-established that Strawberry Bose are capable to create music of any feeling out of any original song. Like what they've done to Innocent Treasures and Chinese Tea.

Yes, exactly two Bomber Grape doujins. Which quadruples the insaneness, as it it's proportional to the square of the amount.

I'd already read those Bomber Grape doujins. I really like Yukari's flair for suddently appearing (and coincidentally, Necrofantasia started on my playlist). Also Okuu's size.

Dirty-minded Koa is fun. I like her when she's a mix of the reliable assistant and your average, mischievous succubus.

And another Sakuya origin story where she's friendly with Meiling. Cute, but somewhat overdone. The bit with Koa and Pache was the highlight, and the interaction between Pache and Remi were interesting as well.

I hadn't even started last update's doujins. I keep getting more and more behind.

Does anybody actually look forward to my not reviews?

I also appreciate your kinda sorta reviews Bocaj. It lets me know which horrible horrible things to avoid, if a story is really cliche or just the same thing for the hundredth time, and your descriptions are funny.

Genius of Sappheiros' rerelease had a few amusing bugs for anyone who cares. First, this bug:

Free item duplication forever!

Next, Sanae has a buff buff. However, the buff buff stacks with itself, meaning you can use an HP buff, then use it over and over again to throw your health into the dozens of thousands, or do 100K damage, etc...

Speaking of the game though, was the second battle theme that starts playing halfway through the game completely original or based on some other track?

I just read the reviews instead of actually reading the stories. I'm far too lazy busy to do otherwise.
