The PC-98 didn't have much of a legacy, so it was a treat to see this video. Never would know a thing about LLS otherwise. The funny thing for me is that it actually looks more like a very challenging conventional shooter, a la Strikers 1945 or Gradius, than a danmaku. No doubt the old hardware put a limit on just how pretty those bullet patterns could get.
fun fact: nobody has ever defeated LLS on lunatic without dying or bombing this run is the closest anyone has ever gotten to so yeah, that's objectively the hardest touhou game also, acording to ZUN, some of his inspiration in the PC98 days came from CAVE and gradius i can see the CAVE influence here
huff... Elly should come back in one of the games... bad apple was her stage theme, and her actual theme shounded even better!!!!!! WHY ZUN?!?!?! WE MUST START A PETITION THINGY TO BRING BACK ELLY!!!!!!!!!!!
Funny how this has actually felt like a beloved childhood game when I've played it on a computer at my father's apartment like it's Wii Virtual Console. It's like some good times where people could actually be creative with designing games that requires skills and mind to complete. Also back when Reimu was actually nice like Mario. Yeah, my father has enjoyed watching me play it considering that he has loved playing shoot 'em ups before and that he has seen danmaku games as shoot 'em ups about dodging through unique bullet patterns.
I'm not much of a shoot em up player, but that Stage 3 boss looks like one helluva difficulty spike. And the final boss is such ridiculous sensory overload >_< But other than that, looks really fun and satisfying to get good at. Thank you for the (surprisingly high quality) recording from early 2011. I come back to your videos every now and again and am awed by the skill level each time. (Plus, this game DID give us the Gensokyo National Anthem.)
Forgot to edit out the ending. Outside of that, a good run. Also, we really need some sort of guide on how to record these PC98 games as that's pretty much what's stopping me from actually bothering to do them.
Funny thing is, it's the *stage* music that was the basis for that incredibly famous video, not the *boss* music... so there really was no need to include Elly. (And I'm impressed that at least two producers actually made an MMD Elly model *just* for a Bad Apple video. That's dedication.)
Why is Reimu riding on something? She doesn't need to in the later games as she just floats like everyone else. Plus, it kinda sucks that they never made English patches for these old PC-98 games :/
+m3gAm37aLmAnX 1. It was before Reimu learned how to float, so she rode on Genji, her wise tortoise than taught her how to fly. 2. There ARE English patches for PC-98 Touhou. In fact, they just came out.
How the heck do you dodge Elly's last spell o.0; I'm looking on YT for a timeout of it or Google for advice on it, but most videos take her out too fast with Marisa. I could really use that point bonus on Hard, but damn is it tricky.
6:10: (insert a black shadow of Reimu walking against a completely white background here, eventually segueing into other characters, none of whom are actually from this game, I don't think)
This was before she became a plant yokai in lore she used to be a angel of darkness i think her lore was retcon’d in windows because zun really dislikes his portrayal of certain characters in pc-98 only reimu really is untouched personally and lore wise
=YUP,AT 6:11 IS THE ORIGINAL OF BAD APPLE SOUND ........WONDERING IF A REMIX OF WHOLE ORIGINAL TO BE.....CREATED,SO PEOPLE TO ABOUT WHY IS DOES SOUND SIMILAR
what window your using to play this cuz i have window 7 and i downloaded the pc-98 emulator and i try to run it every old touhou game and it only show me a black screen
Touhou 4: LLS is a pretty decent/alright-ish game. It's way better than the first three games, imo. The improvement over them is notable. it was fun on easy mode but got a little frustrating on normal mode as usual. It would've been good if it wasn't for the random annoying lag and bullets flying at mach 3 speed. Most of the patterns were bearable, but with a recipe like that, once you see the bullets flying at you, it's already too late. I beat it on easy with 3 deaths then on normal with 2 continues. For some reason I didn’t get a 6th stage but I don’t really care. Don’t even get me started on the extra stage, lol. While it’s insane to try for the first time, and the music is solid, I can’t even imagine how hard it is with all of that ridiculous lag and mach 4 bullets everywhere. Well, it's a PC-98 game with some flaws and aspects that haven’t aged well so it's not really surprising. At least it improved a lot upon 1, 2, 3 but i wouldn't really recommend it to anyone. I'm just going to try the extra stage and then move on to 5 (Wow, that extra stage was actually insane. I don’t know what in the world was going on, but i died at the white orb midboss, lol)
Featuring purple haired girl who is NOT Shampoo from Ranma 1/2 in pink and red shrine girl outfit and pink tabi socks, blonde sorceress girl in pink socks and purple dress...
great job, i was barely able to suffer through it on normal. i hope one day i'll be able to beat most of the series on lunatic without too much trouble.
9:53 The shots and explosions matched the rhythm of the song XD
I can't believe that Yuuka has plaid carpets on top of plaid floors, incredible.
Her clothes are plaid
I wonder if her garden is also plaid
@@MylotusveShe's gone to plaid
I like Touhou 9 design
6:11 The feeling of nostalgia.
True, but not from this game, but from one of the video with the highest view on Niconico Douga
did you really played this game back then on an actual pc 98?
@@corehazard4709 they probably meant the Bad Apple
Bad Apple is one of the few landmarks from the PC 98 games. For the most part theyre forgotten and the series started with 6.
@@kasikasivendjinn5345 stfu dawg. This game is where bad apple came from. It just remixed it
Can't help it.
Those ghost thingies look funny.
Those are ghosts from Kirby
They’re funky lads! I love emmmmm
Those are the bakebake

Elly's bullets seems really hard to jot down. It must've taken at least 7 times to lock the pattern.

6:09 Don't waste time and get to the song you've been waiting to listen to
RPG luvr13 i enjoy the whole video. Surprised when Bad Apple started playing.
All the songs here are great
that brief tune that unfortunately you skipped at 0:01 is likely the first appearance of theme of eastern story in the entire series
i finally beat this game on lunatic earlier today, I was so happy
That stage 1 theme is so good, but you only get to hear like 1/4 of it by the time the stage ends
I mean, it's pretty good. instrumentation could be better, but still good
Fighting against Yuuka in stage 6 you cannot un-hear Yu-Mu
is it me or does Marisa look chubby
Every PC98 characters are chubby lol xD
Lunartic Skele-bone And sometimes reach dat uncanny vanilla (Madou Monogatari PC98 version)
That was the SD Style of the era
Chubby is sexy.
Thicc reimu is good reimu
Around the 7:00 mark, I was internally screaming, "How the h*ll can you do this!? I would've died 10 times over!" Am I the only one thinking this?
That looks rock solid to play.
Forgot to edit out the ending.
Outside of that, a good run. Also, we really need some sort of guide on how to record these PC98 games as that's pretty much what's stopping me from actually bothering to do them.
i would recommend using something like neko project 2 and the screen capture software you prefer
Yuuka getting away with her plaid ass-kicking outfit shows what kind of power level she's on.
17:20 Oh! Those shoots... they remind me a spell...!
Wait... Flan !! Where are you hiding !?
kaku, the cartoonist
She is in the Void of the Not Ytr exsisting chatacters.
Alinol Kreany Yep... all is linked ...
That's what I thought lol
I call Junko
The PC-98, to be more accurate. It was an old gaming computer in Japan.
this is the only game i lunatic 1ccd and the only touhou game i will ever beat on lunatic ever.
Dat stage for boss! "the boss with the theme(Sleeping Terror)" I SWEAR she used master spark in that battle! or something just as power full. scary
While it is never said by ZUN, most fans say that that was the original Master spark and Marisa stole it for her own uses
ROFL omg really?
It is just fan speculation but it is practically cannon with how many fans are saying that
I think she stole stardust reverie off Mima, or something like that.
According to fandom, it wasn't that she stole it but it was that Mima gave it to her since Marisa learned a lot from her.
最期の発狂弾幕を回避しやがったｗ
I like Yuuka in PC98 because she seems way stronger and cooler than in the windows
How funny, this is higher quality than the Japanese uploads.
*_NO_*
*_VISIBLE_*
*_HITBOX_*
git gud
orange has no right having such a cool intro for an incredibly easy boss (even for stage 1 standards)

+Vavada Oh wow, this game has an English patch now? I gotta replay it then, this game is one of my favourite Touhou games
She flies on her Tortoise, Genji, who later taught her how to fly alone in the Windows era
I want to play touhou!

how did you get it to run so well?
Lunatic LLS = Normal in EoSD
Hardware limitations
Wrong. Yuuka is no joke on Lunatic difficulty.
only if you die and bomb a lot
rank exists in pc98, ad it's a bitch
I think that he refers to the invisible hitbox
Fun fact: LLS is the only one of Touhou series NO ONE done LNN yet.
yuka with long hair what- what.......
why.....
why what wh-
Something is strange with sounds...
HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE!!!!?

It didn't took me that many tries so yeah

@@elijahbradley704 normal wasn't too hard to beat, but was really annoying, imo. good job, haha
I forgot to mention....it was without bombs in lunatic mode too....
