I don't have any preference, btw. I think it's just that Benben is an easier name to remember than Yatsuhashi. 

That's a common meme? First I've heard of it (I mostly play the games, and don't spend much time online except for this place). And here I though you've made a pretty funny joke.

Fav: 11, no contest. Least: 18 (close with 2)

That's very normal. Touhou only has so much official content (fan content mostly re-use official content, often in predictable ways so it's not as interesting) , and after almost 3 years you probably seen it all.    Probably because every game/manga are just "incident of the week". Barely...

Something I forgot to add: I think if the game would allow you to hold 3 UFO in your inventory, rather than just 2, it would have been much more forgiving. If you collect two red , then mistakenly collect a blue, you would still be able to collect a red to replace the blue you have collected...

Oh, THAT game. People keep saying SA is "so hard" and "merciless", but I can easily say this about UFO. SA was a straight-forward hard challenge. The bosses in UFO are even harder than SA, mostly due to faster bullets and some spells that are tricky AND uses fast bullets (or laser). I think the...

Yep, 10 continues hurts a bit. My worse run was UFO on Hard with 11-12 continues (in a month and a half, I cleared all shot types, including the awful Marisa B). Here's are a few tips for SA:   If you haven't done so already, reduce the difficulty to Easy (pretty sure it gives you the good...

Ah, SA, my favorite along with PCB. The shot-types are definitely a good part of that game. They take some time to getting used to, but they are great once you master them (at full power, Alice and Patchouli can make some stage a walk in the park). While the game is harder than other Touhou...

Yeah. I agree that the first time you reach each stage it feels more "earned" with the MoF continue system, but this only works on the first run (seeing a new stage always feels good). After replaying the game on harder difficulty, it gets old very quickly. I am currently clearing SA with all...

"Nothing to quantify what you have lost"? Previous game had the status screen at the end of the game. It shows you how much continue you've used and how many lives you lost. For MoF-SA-UFO, you can tell how much continue you have used by looking at your score (the last digit is the number of...

The new continue system is definitely the worse change about the game. If I want to grind a stage over and over again until I am good enough, I'll just use practice mode. With this new continue system, you can get stuck for a good while on stage 5-6, while in previous game you would just use a...

Well, I think the games starting from MoF are using Zunpets pretty well. There are still loud Zunpets at time, but they are not as high-pitched so they don't mess up the track. I actually quiet like Zunpets, the mix of Zunpets + Piano is just enjoyable to listen to. Yup, that's a shame. At less...

About the Cherry Border: This is a great mechanic for beginners. Having this shield remove the stress of losing a life if you get hit, so while it's there you can focus on just dodging. For score player, you can choose whether to keep the border and get bonus points, or release it on purpose to...

Yeah, but it also means that the CPU might be program to not get hit at all until a certain condition has been met (time or sending X attack to the CPU). The CPU were always broken anyway. I think they run on a timer, and will avoid any hit until the timer has been reached (or if their path...

So, what are you guys thoughts on the demo of Touhou 19? I have just finished the demo Story Mode with all 5 characters, and so far the game seems pretty much the same thing as PoFV, except slightly better/worse in some area. I did play in Japanese, so I might have missed some things. I...

LLS is definitely one of the easier Touhou game. I only struggled with Lunatic. It is a good game though for those who prefer more simple Touhou. The mechanics are simple (no UFO, aggressive grazing, aggressive POC). It was cool playing LLS to discover the game that solidified the basics of...

I meant characters from stage 6 or extra I know there's an extra mode. I dunno if it will be like in PoFV

I voted based on who I think will get in. PoFV didn't have any stage 6 or extra stage character, so I ain't expecting those in this game. The game theme seems to be "animal" and "spirit" related (there's also a connection to the "market"), so I don't expect anyone from Touhou 16 (except...

Just watched it. I didn't understand the subtitles, but it seems like the finale it going to be a bit bloated. Main plot seems to be that Marisa is going to investigate who did this to Reimu (Remillia seemed to only have provoked Marisa for fun, and Reimu is clearly not dead). During the...

Thanks for posting. Here's hoping the finale's decent (my expectation are low for this one)
