out of curiosity, do any of you all that play touhou have MASTER for your spell history of any spells? if so which ones? only spell I have MASTER on seiran's midspell on lunatic, because it took me a *long* time to lock in the route for LoLK stage 1 and it almost broke me
Assassin's Bullet "Speed Strike", history MASTER

hot take but I think FMW's kosuzu + alice, despite being written moreso as a narrative necessity from the lack of tanuki grandma, is still great I think their interactions are cute, and it's interesting to see a youkai kosuzu admires that isn't completely just "I Have Self Serving Ulterior Motives"
Alice: And as you heard, I'm Alice. The shop is beautiful enough, but to think it has such an adorable shopkeeper too.

Kosuzu: (This is crazy! She's so pretty, and with those fancy western clothes she looks just like a doll!)Alice: Just make sure not to ever read a youma book by yourself, and call Reimu if anything happens

Kosuzu: Ooh, does that mean I can read them as long as you're with me, Alice?

marisa's struggle to express herself in her field is pretty clear - see grimoire of marisa speaking of GoM, I've always thought this comment was interesting. lyrica has flawless technique but can't seem to make her music "stand out" that's why I believe she searches for illusory sounds in PoFV

LudicrousFPS @ludicrousfps.bsky.social · 09/10/2026
- I think lyrica has a quality that marisa admires, which is raw talent in her field. she can play multiple instruments very well (at once!), including those of her sisters but unlike marisa, lyrica doesn't seem to be particularly studious - she's actually a bit sly and lazy

also it was only doing research for this page that I found out medicine was actually less than 60 years old and not less than "a couple hundred years old" (Who's Who comment)
Comment from ZUN
The main characters all fight Aya in their routes in "Phantasmagoria of Flower View," but Medicine was created as a character for the other cast members to fight. As a sort of "bad route," where the characters realize "wuh-oh, I shouldn't have gone this way!" Hence her ability to control poison. Also, she doesn't know what things were like 60 years ago; I wanted to introduce a youkai who'd just been born. I wrote her as a character who's been languishing in obscurity, but that makes her pretty hard to use, doesn't it? Like Hina or Parsee. There's other "languishing in obscurity" characters besides them too, but they're all so hard to use (laugh).

one of my favorite things I did on the touhou wiki is make the page quotes of marisa and alice a conversation
marisa page: "It ain't magic if it ain't flashy. Danmaku's all about firepower."
— Marisa Kirisame (Perfect Memento in Strict Sense)alice margatroid: "Comments like that are why people think you're dumb. Danmaku is all about brains. It's just common sense."
— Alice to Marisa Kirisame (Imperishable Night)

this is the funniest touhou statistic ever

yes it is misleading due to small sample size but it is still funny

I adore taboo japan disentanglement and it's my favorite hifuu album story wise but my one problem is that maribel misunderstands the central subject of renko's thesis/manuscript even after reading over it and annotating it extensively


    "This manuscript is completely mistaken.
    The nature of otherworlds is to be something that truly exists.

    Haven't you come to understand that after seeing it with me, Renko?"

    "Merry, you're the one who's mistaken.

    My theory doesn't deny the actual existence of otherworlds at all."

    "Huh? But you wrote right here that—"

    "That's not about otherworlds, that's about all fundamental particles not truly existing."

    "Huuuh?"

lensed night sky beaten on hard at this point this game just feels like pure luck (I got macabre side hustle which gave me a free ticket to the polaroid, and a bunch of other godly items) it's also starting to feel pretty repetitive. thankfully I only have to do one more polaroid run

this maribel and sumireko conversation was like a bombshell it was sooooooooo fucking good. and also this maribel profile is absolutely insane work the plot still makes no sense but I will begrudgingly do it all again with the other two shots to hopefully play as maribel and clarify the story

LudicrousFPS @ludicrousfps.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
and also I had... no idea what was going on here. I assume that maribel also needs to be attacked, but I guess the fairy babies attacked her enough?? anyway, very lucky setup, but frustrating that I need to do this all over again with the other two shots

I initially thought lensed night sky's writing was not the best, but after playing sumireko instead of chiyuri can forgive it sumireko actually just feels like herself instead of being imbued with righteousness and thick prose from stage 5 onward. and I think her ending is the most well done

LudicrousFPS @ludicrousfps.bsky.social · 15/09/2026
spell card duels are about expressing character and beauty - it's just that junko's idea of beauty is purified shapes and pure efficiency. (and she definitely gets theatrical for her spells 2, 3, and 5) she's intentionally restraining herself because if she wasn't, the heroines would be dead
grimoire of marisa afterword

If you're free to do anything, then you just have to use "the most efficient, most effective attack possible".
In terms of danmaku, you'd just have to use attacks with as few gaps as possible, or shoot the fastest, largest bullets possible. You'd probably be unable to call that danmaku at all.
Therefore, in a world without rules, danmaku would be nonsense.
120
LudicrousFPS @ludicrousfps.bsky.social · 15/09/2026
that is a common misconception but junko does use spell card rules from the start. from reimu and marisa's dialogue, junko's fight is expressively a duel, and also technically completely unnecessary where it not for our heroines loving to make things harder for themselves
Junko:

My name is Junko.

A sagacious spirit bearing ill will to the citizens of the moon.

If I may be frank, my current will to fight has vanished...

However, I shall at least show you
some hospitality for arriving here.

It is only polite, is it not?

Reimu: 
To be honest, I don't really care
one bit about the Lunar Capital...

But I've got to at least vent a little
about having been given so much trouble!

Plus, you're sort of annoying somehow.

Though she now lives on another heavenly body,

Even if we are unable to dwell together under Heaven,
my hatred alone will be refined.

Now, show me!
Just what an earthling risking her life is capable of!

And behold!
This pristine spiritual force that rejects life and death! Junko

That's true.
However...

Since you've managed to come here,
I humbly challenge you to a duel.

It is only polite, is it not?

Marisa

Augh, dammit!

You sayin' I was nothin' but Eirin's pawn
since the start!? Fer' god's sakes!

I've got nowhere to vent this anger.
I'll just hafta take it all out on you!

Yes, anger is the only force driving me as well.

generally very positive! since it's a remake people are lenient about the changes because they recognize it's a different game (and you can always just play the original). but at the same time they enjoy the smaller hitboxes and jank removal that make gameplay feel more smooth
SOC: The New Classic version is insanely easy to play from all sorts of angles—like the hitboxes being smaller, reduced delay, better visibility, and more—plus, combined with its originally simple gameplay, I feel like it’s something I can highly recommend even to people trying Touhou for the first time.

How about the differences between EoSD Classic and 2002 EoSD... How many nitpicks are there? The answer is... absolutely none! The gameplay is *100% identical* - replays and score data files from 2002 EoSD work in EoSD Classic (though not vice versa). Shanghai Alice Reprise did an amazing job!

As an example, here SOC (touhou survival god) struggles to perform effective corner bombs since sakuya only does fast waves. His most effective one is at 0:20 when he waits a wave. The odds of a fast vs slow wave are unknown. (clip from SOC: <https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2870376389>)

LudicrousFPS @ludicrousfps.bsky.social · 10/09/2026
This is not an effect of max rank (even though most fight KD at non-max rank due to bombs, deaths, rank manip etc) - rank only affects bullet speed. If old EoSD has the rank value set to 99, the time between waves is still a consistent 1.5 seconds. This change is new to EoSD NC (clip by serus)
1220
LudicrousFPS @ludicrousfps.bsky.social · 10/09/2026
Sakuya's final (Killing Doll) is buffed on all difficulties - the time between waves has been decreased from 1.5 seconds to 1.0... most times You can see in this video how sakuya either finishes her "resume time!" sprite animation, or starts the next wave during it (kana: x.com/kana_th6/sta...)

Remilia and Flandre had a bug where if you shotgunned them as they transitioned from their penultimate to their final spell, they took a huge chunk of damage. This has been fixed in EoSD NC - which actually has significant survival ramifications for SG and QED, as they're both endurance spells

LudicrousFPS @ludicrousfps.bsky.social · 10/09/2026
Remilia's non 2 now has a much shorter time between waves. However, no overlap is present between waves so the difficulty has not increased noticeably.
