Fun fact: This is actually the debut of Windows Reimu! Thisa game released in 2000; after Mystic Square; but before EosD. In fact; it came out TWO YEARS before EosD; so Reimu's redesign was planned for quite a while by ZUN.

I've just noticed how many things about this extra stage are similar to lls: the stage looks similar to lls's stage 1, the two bosses are Reimu and Marisa (like in lls stage 4), both extra stages have one boss, then another (which with lolk are the only ones in the entire series to have two extra bosses), Yuuka sparks, Marisa clones herself like Yuuka does in lls and both have very hard extra stage bosses
This extra stage is fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun. Ancients, on a different note, is my favorite Reimu theme. And probably my favorite out of ZUN's music (which is saying a lot) Also, yeah, why can't you deathbomb in this game? That has caused quite a few deaths for myself as well...
WishMakers This, the best of ZUN's whole music? You can have your opinion as I have mine. The song is nice, as is the stage and Marisa's theme. I'd have to say that the PC 98 music is better in general (when in a time-considering tournament). The richness of ZUN's modern synth is uncomparable to the old one that he had back in that era (PC 98 and Seihou - by EoSD it had been changed).
Back when I first played this I still was unsure of what exactly cased the whole "game progressively gets harder" aspect of it I mentioned and shown a direct example of in Stage 4 (hell, I still don't think there's any documentation on it). I really don't know if it was time spent surviving, amount of grazes you have, or how many of those star points you pick up. I didn't want to risk it then if it _was_ tied to those star points considering how good I was doing at that point (I'd never made it that far in the fight with 3 lives before). So I didn't want to risk the boss fight suddenly getting _WAY_ harder if I picked up that huge cluster of star points
MegamanOmega i actually really believe the dificult upgrade of the levels is random, cuz i the first level i was farming stars like crazy and it didn't get soo dificult, in other plays i have it actually got dificult, i don't really think the stars upgrade the level of danger in levels, its more like random

When you said, not exactly Touhou, the one game came to mind... When I heard the theme at the end... I nearly fainted. Will you be translating these games too?
You were having fun I see :P Great job. Looks far more difficult then any of Touhou's extras. Not that I should talk, I literally next to never play them. So, what's next? You didn't say much beyond 'not quite'. Len'en? Also just 40 minutes ago I 1cc'ed TLC on lunatic. Mah arms, dey be shaking. Also *PLAY KOISHI HECK* :3
+Ori Agreed, Koishi Heck is actually pretty decent and more manageable than the first two Koishi Hells. The weird gimmicks are there, but they're more "Lemme change things up a bit, like Seija on steroids" rather than "Lemme see how many innuendoes and memes I can turn to danmaku and throw at you". The creator is AJS, and the download link\s here: www.bulletforge.org/u/ajs/p/koishi-heck
Yup, it's been implied that she doesn't NEED the broom to fly, rather it's there to help her fly faster. At the very least she has straight up said she has a broom cause that's a thing that witches have. Now I'm not 100% sure but I think in the Grimoire of Marisa she actually does reference that she can make wings out of magic, but she prefers flying with her broom. But don't quote me on that, I may not remember correctly and there were A LOT of references in that book.
This game in particular reminds me of Raiden and the Psikyo shoot 'em ups. Less bullet density than in CAVE games and Windows-era Touhou, BUT A HELL OF A LOT FASTER. lol
I didn't do anything out of the ordinary, however other video's of Seihou tend to have been recorded years ago which would have been before TH-cam allowed 60fps video.
MegamanOmega184 no, i mean the game itself. If run on modern windows, it suffers from constant freezes and fps drops(not to mention disappearing music)
You do have to work your butt off to make it run I'll admit. Switching your computer to Japanese locale or using Applocale is a big one, experimenting with various downloads on it, and straight up having the right OS is another factor. I used this download, but I also had to make sure I unzipped it in Apploacale so as to make sure all the inner files stayed in Japanese, or I had the same problems you said. www.mediafire.com/file/w22vztixqyo23im/SEIHOUSHUUSOUGYOKU.zip And even then I had a few times when the music wouldn't load. Even in my main run the Stage 5 boss music didn't load, so I had to add that in, in post. And even then this game is still finicky on a case by case basis. Look here, there was one guy with similar problems getting this to run on Win10 and eventually succeeded after going through this. en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Shuusou_Gyoku/Gameplay#Glitches
+chainz983 The whole game isn't made by ZUN like Touhou is. Rather this was made by a small group and ZUN helped with a lot of stuff. He did all the music at least and I know he had a big hand in designing the Extra Stage.
First, from the future, then into a fury flame area, then into Gensokyo? Really unusual transition, hence why I noticed Marisa and Reimu. Also Reimu is a huge asshole this time around!
3:09 So that's where the phrase comes from... but It's still weird for me :/ [Reimu doesn't know god] I died, supposing Gensokyo Is a world filled with gods x)

If VIVIT could dream, she'd have nightmares about this stage...
I truly prefer Reimu and Marisa's Portraits by far.
Seihou ones are outrageous and so is the difference between the Styles.
haha remember when Omega had annotations of his rage on reimu's phases
good times
All TH-cam ever does is steal our history from us.
It’s somewhat surreal seeing Marisa with wings...I kinda like it though.
She also had Wings in Touhou 3
@@wdg2384 wait, true
is it just me or she has same wings with flandre?
i was thinking about what will it like when Reimu become a EX-boss, but this is too much
Well, in Touhou CtC she's the Final Boss and Phantasm Stage Boss too
@@wdg2384 it's not by Zun though, and nowhere near canon.
