FanTouhouMusic
FanTouhouMusic is a YouTube channel that uploads Touhou Project-styled music. From remixes of songs from other Touhou fan-works, to full original albums framed as a Touhou Project game.
The YouTube channel can be found here.
Original Albums
- Touhou Senshi Tamashī ~ Immense Will of a Thousand Swords: With the Great Hakurei Barrier still weakened from a prior incident, an unknown force had entered Gensokyo, followed by the many swords and sharp weapons suddenly flying towards a remote location in Youkai Mountain. With the chaos caused by the sword-based damages, Reimu Hakurei set out to find the culprit behind the odd incident.
- Touhou Shēnhóng Chéng ~ Emergence of Crimson Acropolis: A normal day in Gensokyo gets interrupted by a large structure breaking through the barrier and floating in Gensokyo's skies, releasing a crimson-colored mist blocking the sunlight and altering the weather. Having been warned of the damage to the barrier by Yukari, Reimu sets out for the acropolis in the sky to hopefully resolve the incident.

'Dynamically Changing Level' trope
Video Game Settings are generally static, as it's generally much simpler to design levels that remain the same, visually and structurally, as you play through it. Sometimes though, for the sake of visual storytelling, you get a level where it goes through a visual overhaul before your eyes, all without being interrupted via a cutscene — whether it be a sunset changing the lighting, or a forest that's caught fire and rapidly spreading. Most of the time, it's done via a scripted sequence, but certain genres achieve this trope overtime, typically in tandem with a Timed Mission.
Compare and contrast Remixed Level, where an older level gets revisited at a later point with a new look, rather than changing as the player progresses through it.
Examples:
- Friday Night Funkin' mods:
- Friday Night Funkin': Corruption: The week against Senpai, with the first song starting off as the familiar pixelated school setup of the vanilla game, shortly becomes . Notably, its the first instance of an FNF mod changing assets mid-song.
- One of the scrapped plans for the cancelled 3.0 update of Vs Sonic.exe was this type of level in form of "Manual Blast". At the start, the backdrop appears to be a typical Green Hill Zone, with the scene being an upbeat battle with Hog, a cute knockoff of Sonic. But then it all takes a turn with Hog undergoing an off-screen Painful Transformation into Scorched, with the setting getting altered to be generally bleak — the atmosphere darkening, the plant-life dying, and the ocean turning blood red — until the song reaches its climax, where the game-world becomes incredibly glitchy and eventually zooming out to reveal to have all taken place on a TV with a Sega Genesis, with the game crashing as the song concludes. While the remains of the final build would only include the asset for the first two phases of the stage, subsequent fan-made mod projects like FNF EXEternal would recreate the intended final sequence, with the listed fan-mod also having the very assets that make up the game, both in-universe and out, get deleted overtime.
- Sam & Max: Freelance Police: In the remake of season one, the Chase Scene with the runaway Soda Popper is accompanied by the sky gradually turning from evening to nighttime as the chase goes on, transitioning for the late evening/night aesthetic the latter half of the episode takes place.
- Sonic 3 & Knuckles: Angel Island Zone starts off as a lush green jungle, but after beating the mini-boss halfway through Act 1, the place gets firebombed by a swarm of Fire Breath badniks, turning the place into a fiery inferno, with the plant-life catching fire and becoming a more decayed color.
'Hardy Cocoon' trope
Real life cocoons are meant to naturally protect the caterpillars while they undergo the pupa stage of their Metamorphosis, but they're not impenetrable to sufficient force, as the hardened silk/chrysalis that makes up its casing are meant for protecting the arthropod from harsh weather conditions or its natural predators — whether wasps that can't get through the chrysalis casing, or birds which don't notice it blending in with its chosen tree due to the chrysalis's coloration.
In the realm of fiction though, you have cases of these pupa enduring more than what the standard cocoon ought to, with them No Selling anything from spikes to brute force.
Examples:
Anime and Manga- Pokémon: The Series: In "Challenge of the Samurai", Ash commands his Metapod to Harden in response to the Samurai proclaiming that Pinser will cut his Pokémon in half. Metapod's resulting state manages to avert its possible grizzly fate, the hardened surface breaking the spikes off of the opposing bug Pokémon's pincers.
Video Games
- Pokémon: Several early game bugs across the generations — including Caterpie, Weedle, Wurmple, Venipede, Scatterbug, Grubbin and Blipbug — have their second stage evolution be their pupa state, with stats that trade in overall offense and speed in exchange for HP and defense, with all of them learning Harden, a defense-increasing status move, upon reaching this stage.
