If anyone is still interested in the background of the song’s name in 2021 : in the novel of Agatha Christie « And Then There Were None », U.N Owen is the name of the murderer of the Soldier Island. It’s a word play as U.N Owen can be read as « Unknown ». Since Flandre is unknown to everyone, and she killed people before... plus and tiny easter egg is that Flandre loves to read detective stories, and Christie write detective stories :)
Wow, it's seem as ZUN really enjoy stories and poems. I am not so into his creations, but I searched about those which interest me and there is a lot of references to novels and stuff, really cool. Really nerd.
@@theproblemmustbeinyourpant5910 Funny thing is, ZUN (The creator of Touhou and the one who does everything) knows absolutely nothing of music theory besides some little things he learnt in some trumpet classes he took as a little kid in elementary school, the dude is just a genius.
@@BelugaDelphine being a virtuoso is more about being able to masterfully play music, but being a good composer requires a very different set of skills, though it isn't rare for genius composers to be able to play very well
the only thing thats hard about it is the hit box being so fuckin small and some of the other modes like blue mode that makes me stress but it’s no match for the real bullet hell
I love the way you arranged this. This is beautiful! Now do one that’s less known to those outside the fandom, like “Onigashima in Fairyland” or “Legend of Aokigahara”
Hearing it simplified to the point of being actually playable makes me realize just how wonderfully complex the original is xD. Would love to see this in Impossible.
And this is the last we would ever see of the Touhou arrangements. I know others have basically arranged literally every song, but I was looking forward to seeing what SMB could bring to the table.
Fun fact: this doesn't sound exactly like the original song not because the og song uses a synth but because ZUN detuned his own piano on purpose so the notes will sound "strange" or "unpleasant" that way representing flan's decent to madness
@@lambdadelta821 Yeah, after doing a quick looksie at midi recreations and files, I am not too sure why most of the EoSD soundtrack isn't in 440, but it just isnt tuned to what we expect normally. You can even see a music teacher sort of get thrown for a loop when he wanted to play along to some chords of the EoSD soundtrack and he had to retune his guitar, only to have to retune it again right after, since the next track was also tuned differently. Its probs why the EoSD soundtrack just sounds so different than the rest of the Touhou tracks, its instrument selection and odd tuning with general experimentation with dissonance, makes it feel super different and oddly charming to me.
Anything from Sabaton would be pretty neat to hear, though I personally would love to hear "Cliffs of Gallipoli", "The price of mile" and/or "A lifetime of war" the most.
This video got me into Touhou because this sounded so good and I wanted to see what it actually was. Thank you (even though the community absolutely despised undertale [which I like]).
@@longlivethe9989 There's been quite a bit of elitism from the Touhou community about Sans' battle. Which is clearly understandable, because if you listened to some parts of the UT fandom at the time, Sans was the hardest thing ever, and some UT fans attacking the Touhou fandom over Bad Apple like they did over Stronger than You and Steven Universe definitely tilted some touhou fans who would respond with things like "you call THAT hard ? Try any stage 6 boss"
I would love to hear a Reach for the Moon, Immortal Smoke and a Entrusting this World to Idols ~ Idolatrize World cover from you guys as well, hopefully.
Very late to the party but you cannot just drop this masterpiece of a theme without septette for the dead princess. You just can't that's like eating peanut butter and jelly with the peanut butter!!!
Sick cover. I would play it but I'm worried i might dislocate one of my fingers lol. IK u guys made night of nights already but Flowering Night maybe please possibly maybe? Or if not maybe Native Faith?
I've been trying to play this song for 8 months and the maximum I got was until 0:50 minutes, using only one hand and playing at 0.5x, I really wanted to play this sound but I feel this is very difficult for me, I give up

And Then There Were None is one of my favorite books, haha.

UN Owen Was Her from Touhou 6. Now stop asking what my outro song is
xd don't steal me bread and butter
EpreTroll can I steal your peanut butter?
Eh
that's what description was made for. you had one job dude
All these dumbasses ACTUALLY didn’t realize that’s what the outro is.
I've never played touhou but this music is pretty rad not gonna lie
Lets be honest,neither do the majority that listened to the music
These soundtracks just popped up on my feed one day and I’ve been listening to them ever since
I enjoy the games but they really aren't for everyone, the practice it takes can really put people off the games
Chaos AE Well they call it bullet HELL for a reason
Yeah, I have played 1-10 and have not finished ONE OF THEM on fricking easy mode!
I love how the MIDI itself represents the bullet hell gameplay of the Touhou series
Now we just need to see them make the impossible version.

If you really want to break your fingers check out Native Faith (another touhou song) piano tutorial by Kijiriki on youtube
What's funny is that this song was made in a short amount of time and you can tell by the piano notes, but it still sounds incredible despite that.
I don’t know, it might not seem like it but there’s some pretty interesting chord patterns here, particularly that opening riff.

“Undertale’s bullet hell combat system is so hard”
ArsonBurgerTV
“Have you ever played Touhou before? AKA the game that inspired UT’s combat system”
that the joke
the only thing thats hard about it is the hit box being so fuckin small and some of the other modes like blue mode that makes me stress but it’s no match for the real bullet hell
Dan K I clearly put quotations there

They always ask who's U.N. Owen never how's U.N. Owen
I'll do you one better - WHY is Gamora

AMAZING!! I especially like how there are no extra notes added into this video, or any other of your videos, just to make it impossible.
Every Touhou vid fills me with happiness.
I love this channel
I love the way you arranged this. This is beautiful! Now do one that’s less known to those outside the fandom, like “Onigashima in Fairyland” or “Legend of Aokigahara”
Strange how when I feel like you’ve done just about everything, you somehow have another great song in your pocket.
Hearing it simplified to the point of being actually playable makes me realize just how wonderfully complex the original is xD. Would love to see this in Impossible.
oh nice, a song based on a touhou game i've played.
*too bad I can't even beat the 5th stage*
It's excusable if you play it on hard or lunatic.
I mean, Touhou games usually only HAVE 5 stages, aside from the extra, so I guess that's alright? I think some may have 6?
Max Mustermann touhou games had 6 stages plus the extra...
Also for you, MeleeWaluigi, for me, stage5 bosses are hard to beat, not gonna lie
Im at the point where Sakuya is moderate, but remilia is tough as hell, red magic is so stressful
i make it to around sakuya and painfully die
Woah~! Another touhou theme!!
@Rudmeerr Octopoot it's just roleplaying calm down boi
Rather than just Nuclear Fusion, how about Hellfire Mantle to build up to it?
i think a solid over of byakuren's theme is in order as well. and mokou's.
Why the first part in nuclear fusion sound like "the flawless wings of yatagarasu?
@@blacklife1789 Because it's the original
And this is the last we would ever see of the Touhou arrangements. I know others have basically arranged literally every song, but I was looking forward to seeing what SMB could bring to the table.
Everybody gangsta until Flandre says "Will you play with me?"
