No, you just degraded me into a piss-like beverage.It's Kaguya. The original pic is awfully nice imo.
The picture is really nice. You dislike citrus that much?
As long as it's in detail and rational, then I won't complain much. I wouldn't read anything that couldn't teach me, be it about moral, theory, ideals, or common knowledge.
I take it you have a bookshelf lined with reference books then. Do you happen to have a book on common sense? If so feel free to beat society with it.

That's true, though not exactly right. I dislike anything that goes way too-off from the real continuity.Jencat has a preference for all things elegant and stylish, though with enough moe and hearts, it could still melt/shatter his wizened heart/mind.
(Don't do that. We don't want him becoming a vegetable)
I agree with you Jencat (sounds too much like Zancat), stories that makes you go "thats ridiculous" arent good for that very reason. The Reimu x Marisa stories do that to me.
Even as a vegetable Jencolli could still keep playing Touhou and anything Alicesoft, which would be awesome to see.
Yes. Sengoku Rance. Make it da first. /persistent
Only time will tell.
Clannad
Spoiler:
I had. It was weirdly not as strong as their normal counterpart.
It might put the computer to emphasize melee more than anything meaning that it will stalk you until you stop moving.
Don't let Yuyumoo push you around Zancat!
Will get to symposium, Rin-Pineapple, and later posts in a subsequent post.

Ah hah hah... I just got really lucky is all... I ran out of bombs before I got to them, and was some how able to squeeze through all those tiny holes... all the while, I was pressing the bomb button as a reflex... I don't think I could get as far with Marisa...Like what Zafira implied, be confident.
That's skill, not luck. Or if you're still insisting that it was a mere luck, then what you need to do is to convert it into your skill.
If you really only lost 1 life during stage 4, then why couldn't you finish it ? Who took your lives the most ? I'm gonna shoot at someone and guess that it was Youmu, right ?
Yeah... v_v
She is a tough cracker to chew... Every single time, it's her non-spellcard danmaku that gets me. I can get through her spellcards no problem, it's just those times in between...

And Zancat, if you have yet to use Marisa; her bomb is a sure kill. You can just spam bombs to get through the game safely.

That's a given, seeing as how much you all talk about Marisa being broken until UFO... I try to get as much score as I can when I play as well... It makes me feel accomplished... a bit...

You are also someone who adapts the "Kill before get killed" principle, right ? How could you not realize that her ordinary shot damage is able to eat away the enemy's lifebar like a true predator. Well yeah, you will need to get used with it first since most players started their first trial by using only Reimu and her homing bullets.
I admit that 'broken' is quite an overstatement. But when compared to the other options, Marisa is obviously superior and way more appropriate for relatively experienced people.

^I agree with this... and it's the reason I need to unlock her for EoSD Extra Stage. lol.

... If it's about Flandre, I'd rather stick with Reimu. Only ever tried Extra once (actually for all installments), but it seems Flandre is quite a hell of tough nut to crack. Well, I've only reached her "Laevatein" in my first and last playthrough, so I cannot comment much about her overall difficulty, yet.

Marisa being broken
Shes not broken, she just puts everything into offense and speed. If you play defensively by surviving and following the flowing of the bullets you will have a hard time with her. She's designed to be played in an aggressive high-risk position below the target hitbox. She's meant to breakthrough bullet patterns with speed, getting you lots of graze. If she gets in over her head she bombs.
Speaking of Marisa I cleared FinalB in IN using her and the doll magician. It took a while to figure out Kaguya has more than one final spellcard. Extra stage unlocked and its just as ridiculous as in TD.

[spoil]Say, just to be sure, what's the actual discussion topic for that passage? Is it Concept of reality and fantasy, common sense and uncommon sense, real world and Gensokyo; or is it how can Maribel enter Gensokyo while she's not certain that Gensokyo is 'real'? Well, assuming it's about Mary, I'd say...
Old - Jenkins wrote...
But during that time, she has yet to master her control of boundaries. And if she didn't know that such place exists, then why could she enter it ? A theory or shit I've thought is... Merry herself slowly becoming a Gensokyo denizen without realizing it (yet). See, in the Changeability of Strange Dream she's having a case of butterfly dream and Merry also asking to herself, "Hasn't my real name also already been forgotten?" after thinking that her real name was too hard to pronounce for Renko.
Put two and two together, where'd forgotten things end up in? Gensokyo of course, as was the case of Miko whom according to Kanako has ceased to exist for outside world.
That's my theory: Merry slowly cease to exist, her 'ability' grows as her 'real name' slowly become forgotten, she's still trapped between outside and Gensokyo like Zhuangzi dreaming of a butterfly (or a butterfly dreaming of Zhuangzi).
One night, Zhuangzi dreamed of being a butterfly — a happy butterfly, showing off and doing things as he pleased, unaware of being Zhuangzi. Suddenly he awoke, drowsily, Zhuangzi again. And he could not tell whether it was Zhuangzi who had dreamt the butterfly or the butterfly dreaming Zhuangzi. But there must be some difference between them! This is called 'the transformation of things'

Hopefully that 'transformation' has nothing to do with a certain youkai whose name possibly not her real name.

Magical Girl Girl what-what-Cannon in Android, I don't recall the game's name because it was so atrocious. The controls were not as responsive as I expected, the english conversation was as bad as chatting via google translator. On the bright side, it has good graphic, but still not really something I would recommend. Magical Cannon Wars? I remember that one, it's got the main character designed by nanaroku(fortress76) artist of that 200 yojana in a flash comic. And yeah, the dialog was bad, really bad. Like something out of babelfish or google translate. Something like, "Attack was found?", "I will struggle" and other weird shit. Well, at least the game was nice to look at and kind of entertaining.

Ha ha ha. That's why, Touhou and pinball don't mix well so far. I mean, look at HRtP. Part-danmaku, part bouncing yin-yang pinball. It didn't mix well (in my opinion) and could be really frustrating to go through.
Is that so~?
I have quite a liking for flipper/pinball games thought i don't play them that often, i find them funny.
Anyway it depends by the tastes...
By the way, going a little bit out of main topic a bit. What other STG/shmup/danmaku games are you playing besides Touhou, guys? Been playing some Gradius and Darius Burst on my psp lately. Good games.
I don't know any except Touhou, thought i played something similar in the past, i remember it name was Gunbird for PS2.

Zandorf will be "Zan(something)", probably "Zancat" or "Zanchan".

Symposium of Entering GensokyoRin_Penelope wrote...
Spoiler'd for convenience.Just like what Rinpenis said, I am also in the impression that Merry ceases to exist slowly. Think about it again, her attachment to the real world ain't that tight to begin with. At times, she showed dislikes toward the world she currently lives in. "It would be nice if that place in my dream were real" or so she said if I recall correctly. Subjectivity is what psychology students tend to emphasize the most, it wouldn't take long for her to be the real citizen of Gensokyo if she could keep denying the reality which she has been living in for all this time.
To make it a bit different, I am also still going with the theory that Yukari and Maribel are actually the same person. That, or Merry is actually Yukari's counterpart in the real world considering the latter referred to herself as the representative of Gensokyo's reality in Memorizable Gensokyo.

Are you suggesting Maribel will just cease to exist in the outside world physically or just in mental state? She can deny reality as much as she likes but her physical form will remain unless changed. If she simply becomes Yukari then there isnt a problem.
Random thought: Lets assume Yukari and Maribel were the same person long long ago. At some point they split or something happened to cause the current dichotomy. Essentially the thing that was both youkai and human became separate entities. Maribel has a longing for the world of phantasm but does that mean Yukari has a desire for the outside world? Is the Hakurei Border partly serving the purpose to keep those two apart?
