Touhou Game Club

I am interested. The circle is ?



I tried to find "Celtic Arrange", but again, to no avail. Maybe that's not the real name ? Looking at how lacking the description is, the uploader must name that from the music type only, which (probably) is Celtic-ish.

The circle name is Morrigan.

Here's one of my favourite arrange, for various obvious reasons besides the epicness of the orchestra:

But.. that's the name of the arranger. The circle itself is named WAVE, and I have most (if not all) of their Touhou-related works. Haha, thank you for the suggestion, nonetheless. Feel free to check my posts in Touhou Music Thread, I've uploaded some.

Already seen the pic some time ago, still looks uber nice =)

New Topic

I want to talk about bombing in Touhou. How do you guys feel about bombs? Are they necessary?

Personally I love the idea of having bomb(s).
For me they are really helping on:

• When you're in a pinch (e.g. : when you're cornered by danmaku/spellcard), just use a bomb and voila it clears the screen and give you time to anticipate the next wave of attacks.

• Scoring -- they'll help clearing the screen at a perfect time to blast all enemies so you can collect all of their power and point items without a miss. In Ten Desires, you could also use a bomb to help you on grazing the boss

The best part of bombs in Touhou? You're not forced to use it. So, if you're looking for a more challenge you can just not use it.

I love bombs. They save my life countless of times. My favourite is the Evil Sealing Circle as it clears the whole screen in one sweep. I find Final Spark ridiculously overpowered for a bomb though. The Life Bar just shaves away like that. Not that I'm complaining ;)

The bombs arent always necessary. I try to do without them until I'm short on lives and sometimes forget to use them entirely. The bombs in MoF and SA were terrible compared to how they normally are, but its enough for me. Clearing the area around me and getting a second look at the danmaku is usually enough.



Which boss and spellcard?

Anything.

Having bombs in the inventory is always a boost to player's confidence, but failing to use one may cause depression. I always think of bombs as double-edged blade.

I, for one, love to have bombs in my inventory since it's kinda essential in a "major-power-loss-penalty" games such as UFO and TD. Just like what Rin said about TD, there is actually a way to use bombs to help you to gain better scores. But it's also not less-risky than the other methods for farming scores.

Seeing how bomb system got trimmed in MoF and SA kinda vexes me. I'm glad UFO brought back the old tradition, albeit provides a higher difficulty in exchange.

I love using the bomb feature in Touhou

Even I am not good at bullet hell
I can still finish some stages because of bombing my way to clear my enemy's danmaku barrage and it also help me to get points and powers faster along my way

I try not to use bombs if possible, especially during practice modo. Using too much bombs at a time might lower my confidence for learning the bullet patterns by dodging them. When I crossed out the option to bomb at possible moments, leaving the only option to graze the hellish patterns away I might learn something and it improves my overall survivability during my runs~

I'll post a dump right at the 1465th page~

This should be good. A dump of what?



You mean grazing then using a bomb when you get too close? I was thinking something entirely incorrect.

Omomoiji's Dinner is by far the easiest spellcard for grazing. I have not tried it yet but in hard and lunatic mode there is a safe zone right in middle which is perfect for grazing. I want to try using trance to get in there then just sitting there.

Use the bomb to get into the boss' exact position. Make use of the invincible phase to get there as fast as you can, the grazing is very insane.

Ehem Yuuko, you're being too lunatic there. Have you tried to 1cc Normal ? And I also would like to know your favorite playable character so far.

Posting my spoils of battle from yesterday's convention. These, however, were taken by another person's camera, as I forgot to use mine. Well, whatever~

Hope you guys remember what I look like~

P.S. I am again the sinsack

Any boss and any spellcard.

You can use the invincibility period that occurs every time you bomb to get close into bosses at point blank range and graze them to increase your max point value, scoring points, and filling the trance gauge.



That Yukkuri Marisa plushie looks adorable. I wanna some too.

You're not naked. true Sinsacks are naked, with only a red rose to cover their privates. It looks more like... a half-assed Rorschach, shame, because I think it'd look better if you had put some trench coat on.

agreed^

Again, that mask is better attached to your face forever. I don't mind having one sin sack.
