      I am actually one of those few people and I also directly chose Lunatic as my first difficulty (I failed and lower it to Hard in the end though, I still haven't finished any of the game yet). *please do not click read more* 🙏
      Edit: Oh and the reason Why I played the game in the first place is not because I watch Touhou walkthrough/gameplay content or any other fanmade content, the reason I get into Touhou in the first place is because I wanted to play Bullet Hell games after a really long time (I used to play Bullet Hell games a lot when I was 5 to 10 Y.O.). I also wonder if playing Bullet Hell game on PC would be easier (It's true, and the reason why I played Lunatic on my first play is because it's easier to play Bullet Hell on keyboard or PC than it is to play on your phone)

    I first got into Touhou during my Undertale phase in highschool, I saw my friend playing and thought "Wow, this game looks fun." So I asked him if he could transfer it to my usb to try, I saw the difficulty options, and ignored all advice my friend gave and went lunatic. My justification was "I beat Sans, I can beat lunatic."

    For me I played with Marisa in normal, because only kids play on easy modo, and looking back I don´t understand how I lost so many lives against Rumia, but Patchouli tho, she was the bane of my existence on those days, and somehow I feel she still is.

      Just look which kind of patterns give You a lot of troubles, for me a big problem is Remilia "Dark Sign "Scarlet Netherworld" and also "Curse of Vlad Tepes" these spell cards really make me unconfident, or You can try to "Death Bombing".
      So basically i suggest You to use practice mode and learn the patterns, You can mapa here how many lives you are going to spend in each stage and probably have a better idea of when You should use the bombs and find the right moment.
      Also keep in mind if You want to try extra stage after beating the normal mode...
      *Keep in mind than bombs are really important here atleast if You are trying a good run*
      Note: I don't know if one of these tips actually helped you, i started to play touhou like 2 weeks ago lol, i hope it is of your help and if You find something weird it is because English is not My native lenguaje and i'm afraid to use translators.

    I first started with thousand night anamnesis, a fan mobile game that is mainly a boss rush style thing for a lot of the Touhou games, featuring all of the bosses from the games they feature, but only 2 stages have an actual non boss section, meaning when I played an official one I struggled a lot more with the fairies, and when playing a mobile danmaku game, you are much more adjusted to being able to move at any speed with infinite precision, so when I realized I needed to use arrow keys, I suffered.
    Also, I played thousand night anamnesis on an Ipad with an apple pencil, which is why I am saying that I could be more precise.

    I got into Touhou back in 2021 all thanks to a video that isn’t even related to Touhou (it was a video of KuruHS featuring a NFS ProStreet mod). In that video, there is a part where Cirno Fumo on a roomba is featured as a car, I searched her name and found out she’s from Touhou. I also have heard the name “Touhou” from videos by The Electric Underground. I already have experience on shmups (but still unable to 1cc some even on the easiest difficulty). And the fact that EoSD is also my first Touhou game and this video shows EoSD is really accurate, except I made it to Sakuya on Easy and I thought she’s the Final Boss lmao.

    Some guy wouldn’t stop spamming Fumo in a server I was in so I naturally started to hate whatever’s Fumo was (not knowing of touhou at the time) it kept going until I heard remilia and cirno rap. I got a little interested after that so I looked up the full thing and fell into the deepest rabbit hole of my life! The music ZUN makes caught me off guard, since the first touhou sound I ever listened to was Sakura of the dead, (such a beautiful song) now I’ve been a touhou fan for about a year now and have all the main games bought and downloaded and I have a playlist of almost all the touhou songs. It’s like an everyday thing part of my life now.

    Around 2011, i met touhou from hisoutensoku, a video of it fell from a parachute on me at youtube but it was all in japanese.
    So i started to search everywhere for the game and found it, after some time maining remilila i went after her on internet and discovered her art of th6 and i went "wtf is this" but my love for bullet hell started from there (and the knowledge of not having stage 6 on easy modo in the same game, which made me switch to normal in any subsequent game after that).
    Somehow i started to love zun's art (it really has a charm on it) and loving the songs, this become a portal to vocals and arranges (starting with Foreground Eclipse).
    Today i still suck at this game but it turned as my favorite genre having some fanmades and other bullet hell games on steam.
    I dont remember from who i saw that video but i am truly grateful for it.

    I found out about touhou after hearing some songs 11 years ago (16 years old, becoming 17 in a month btw), at the same time as Ikaruga.
    I forgot about Ikaruga, eventually, but Touhou was still present, some things I saw were kind of weird, and now i know they are touhou references.
    In august, 2021 decided to give EoSD a shot, I knew it was hard, and I knew I would get my ass kicked, some people in this comment section said that they thought they were ready for higher difficulties at the first playthrough because "I beated Sans". I've beaten Sans, third try, and still knew that my ass would be kicked to oblivion.
    After going through a full afternoon trying to make it work, get the v-patch, get the original japanese characters for some file's names (otherwise the files wouldn't be found), getting thcrap and deciding wich translation to use (there are various translations for spanish, even troll translations, ended up using the argentinian spanish one), finally played the game, and as expected, the game kicked my ass on normal, since my first run, Patchy was my limit.
    At the time, I already 1cc'd EoSD once, can't do it again apparently. Now I'm also playing PCB, IN and DDC (to see how much the games changed over time), also gave a shot to the PC-98 games, those are in other pc now tho.
    This game ended up being fun, I love this.

    Man when I got into the games I was in a very dark place in my life... it was 2020.... my "stepfather" you caould say did very VERY bad things. Unspeakable things. I barely passed the grade I was in because of covid. And then I found some random touhou videos on my youtube recommendations for some reason... I looked into it. Looked extremely fun....So my first game was EoSD.... and well it did bring my mental state up considering how difficult and punishing it is. And well it basically cured depression like how dark souls cured people's depression. By making you push forward... making you fight harder. Making you stronger. And 7 months later I got my first 1cc, it was in MoF on Normal mode. The best part was... it was pizza day that day as well. Now well... I'm much better at the games than I used to be I'm a hard mode player. Also if there is ANYTHING playing touhou taught me, no matter who you are you can get better at anything as long as you practice enough. I never thought I would even get my first 1cc. But here I am. I have every 1cc I have gotten on my youtube channel, every first 1cc I should say (except for my very first one because well... my replay is broken) just by the titles of all my 1ccs. They all just tell how hard I worked for them.
    Edit: Now that I think about it, playing the games taught me a lot about perseverance in general. Even though it's hard, my goal was to get better, it wasn't to win initially, I just wanted to say I was decent at the game. But then when I got that spark of "oh my god I might be able to 1cc my first game" that's where I knew... I could be actually really good. Where I am now, I feel like I'm good but not THAT good. I don't wish I was amazing at the game, I wish for me to be able to get to be amazing, the only way to do that is with practice.

    The earliest experience with any Touhou thing that I can remember was Bad Apple being played on Task Manager. I think I've first seen the word "Touhou" on the Wikipedia page for moe anthropomorphism. I also heard a lot of Night of Nights and seen plenty of fumo memes but didn't really know it was Touhou. I eventually became curious and did my own research. Eventually I decided that I was going to play the actual games. Just a couple months ago I first tried EoSD on easy mode. Just like in your video, Cirno kept destroying me. Thankfully I've practiced a lot and searched for tips, and the farthest I have gone on Normal mode without continues was Stage 4 midboss with Reimu A. I've also tried a bit of Perfect cherry blossom and Mountain of Faith since then, but my main goal is to 1cc EoSD on normal!
