@@marisakirisame867 Eh, I think Spring lane is way more dark and depressing of a theme than Maiden's capriccio, but sure, the PC-98 version of the theme is kinda moody too
Just Reimu happily skipping along, throwing a bunch of ofudas around and hitting youkai by luck, hugging every cute thing she comes across What a fantastic theme…
It has been well over a decade since Reimu had a new theme. In fact, the last game to add a new theme to Reimu was, in fact, Phantasmagoria of Flower View.
@@daniel_ze ulil had a remix, but the original is "Dichromatic Lotus Butterfly ~ Ancients" from Seihou 1 (2000). The modern versions are usually remixes of the version "Dichromatic Lotus Butterfly ~ Red and White" from Dolls in Pseudo Paradise (2002). Either way, both are very old.
Reimu theme in a nutshell: Phantasmagoria of Dim Dream: Your typical shrine maiden, but slapped with Oriental on it Lotus Land Story: That one kid in the block Imperishable Night: Crazy speed shrine maiden!! phantasmagoria of flower view: Melancolic side of Reimu, shes got emotion you know Unfinished dream of all living ghost: Your bestie Reimu, going to kick ass on some youki
These new Touhou themes could not have come at such a better time for me. Going through a rough time right now but I know Touhou never ceases to make me happy
This really puts a smile on my face, the soundtrack of this game has been SO good so far, it makes a fun harmony between the gameplay and the ambience.
Not seeing how this is dissappointing. All it's doing is showing a more joyful, chill side of Reimu no different than Spring Lane did back in PoFV. It's a banger too, so I'm not complaining lol. EDIT: Ok so Ive given it some thought, and I would like to say to the people who are mentioning "it sounds too much like a stage theme". Yeah that's probably the point lol. Like actually take a second to think about the gameplay if the phantasmagoria games....where are the boss fights? Like yeah, the final stage has the tone of a final boss fight but functionally....the entire game is composed of really long stages with multiple (admittedly frequent) midbosses. So, really, I think it fits that this sounds like a stage theme. Besides, as I already mentioned, it gives ZUN a chance to step back and compose a song exclusivrly for a _character_ , not for a characters boss fight. Feels more personal that way imo.
I actually really agree! I was just thinking the other day, the boss themes are often more memorable to me than the stage themes, if only because they're linked to the character and not the location. But the boss themes are also... well, boss themes. They have to be pretty intense. Touhou doesn't have so many lighthearted songs that are so directly linked to the characters, so it's nice to get more :)
Some people said this song isn't reimu or something...like seriously, u guys though reimu like she was edgy slayer like whatever fanon potray her. Stop!
Well I have a bad new for you, in the Zun's comment on Marisa theme, he say that's a theme for her... "I think this song is suitable for any character while keeping Marisa's image." (I hope there will be 2 themes for her in the full game)
I'm guessing the first six stages play early / middle / late story mode themes, and the last three stages play the boss themes, so it's possible Reimu and Marisa can get different themes (but I think it's unlikely to happen)
@@kagummi It's most likely they will have two themes, either that, or Reimu's & Marisa's trial themes will be repurposed as story mode themes only, sort of like in Tasofro games' trials (ULiL comes to my mind) they did that. Or, y'know, ZUN will only give them these themes. Which sucks, but oh well.
Oh my goodness this is such a pleasant theme with such an adorable title. Really gives a light feel that invokes the feeling of cruising along at a leisurely place. Love the repeating main motiff with the piano, it just hits the right spot
This is good but ngl hope we'll get a solo theme for Reimu alongside this as well, it feels less important when the supposed theme for Reimu is also the generic early stage music.
I'm guessing the first six stages play early / middle / late story mode themes, and the last three stages play the boss themes, so it's possible Reimu and Marisa can get different themes (but I think it's unlikely to happen)
Can't wait to hear Reimu's actual theme since this appears to be a song that'll only be used for her in the demo. This theme is still pretty pleasant, though! Gives me plenty of UM vibes which is great.
Reimu's not getting another theme in the full version, and we don't need one. This theme is fine as it is, and I'll certainly take it over the fake leaks.
It’s like a combination of her previous two Phantasmagoria game themes. It has that upbeat, bold feel of Mystic Oriental Love Consultation and the calmer yet catchy piano from Spring Lane ~ Colorful Path.
Sounds really safe even for ZUN, but decent nonetheless. Sounds more like an early stage theme than a character theme so I'm not sure about it being Reimu's theme, but wouldn't really be mad if it is. I really like the 1:54 and 2:40 sections.
Cute theme but it doesn't feel "Reimu". Hard to explain, but if you listen to her classic themes the difference is obvious. It sounds like a music CD or spinoff song. In terms of style it sounds like it came straight from Black Market.
Probably the first time I prefer the Reimu theme over the Marisa one. Also didn't think there'd ever be any new themes for these two but glad to be proven wrong
Am I the only one who finds this theme... super generic? Like to the point where I don't see it fitting reimu at all, maybe it's because it's also just a generic early battle theme but this theme just feels a little too lacking in my taste... I'm probably saying this because I still prefer when it would play character specific themes for every battle like in 9 but at the same time also hearing this song over and over again is just ehhh I still don't get why this theme placed significantly higher than Hisami's theme in the popularity poll... people compare this song to being like Spring Lane but that song is way more memorable than this one
Eh, I think this theme is as Reimu like as is. Reimu desires peace without a fight, is secretly a big ol' softie when it comes to youkai (even slacks on the job of exterminating them) and is freer than anyone you'd ever know, always lazing and taking things easy. This incident's not that serious to warrant Dream Battle or any more bombastic Reimu theme, I think.
Her gohei is now a freakin spear lmaoo
Touhou 34: Reimu fights Sephiroth with her 3 meter long gohei.

Honestly, it's just Gungnir at this point. And I like it that way.

Then get used to listen to it for about 50% of the game

i see u comment this on so many touhou related videos… what does it mean /genq
Probably the happiest theme Reimu's ever gotten, fits her very well, rather than depicting her sheer power it depicts her carefree personality
and darkest known from touhou LLS - Maiden's Capriccio ( not that touhou 8 )

The piano part is so good
That title has its own meaning because Reimu is my world
this theme is so good wtf thank you ZUN
I was not expecting such a title, but it fits this bouncy song perfectly
Someone else playing the trial as Marisa, do you guys feel sometimes she doesn't do any damage?
Use lv1 more. There's also a bug where Marisa's lasers don't fire when they're supposed to, but I haven't run into it personally.
Marisa's lvl 1 is strong tho so definitely take advantage of that.
Also she doesn't have any bullet clearing tools along with laser bug.... so rip😂
She got bugs and all that but her enemy lasers are scary af

I like the title a lot. Lovely upbeat music.
This one is really CUUUUTE. My favorite OST in 19th.
Good theme aside, this has to be the funniest name ever lmao
The remixes of this are going to be absolutely adorable.
