PCB Yuyuko's Final Spell Theme: Border of Life

The theme for Yuyuko Saigyouji's final spell from Touhou 7: Perfect Cherry Blossom

You asked for it.

I spent an absurd amount of time on this, and it still only came out ok lol ^^;

Obviously only intended to run for a minute, this theme has no breaks. I spliced together part of the main melody with the drums to keep the flow going. I did try to loop it back to some of the earlier parts, but the lack of drums made it sound too abrupt and thrown together.

Anyway, as usual I gave it my best. Although, something tells me you guys only wanted this to complete the playlist, huh.

imagine dying from a butterfly hitting you right in the eye
not only you die, but your last image before the afterlife is the fucking up-close picture of an insect

[Megapig]

One of the coolest moments in any Touhou game

[Rodri]

Reimu/Marisa/Sakuya: Why wont you die?
Yuyuko: Resurrection Butterfly son, it activates in response to PICHUUN~

[saphinarii]

the 2 ppl who disliked probably thought they won against Yuyuko and then her last Spell completely destroyed them

[vitorhenriquefarias]

we finally killed that jesus guy
jesus on the 3rd day:

Remembering the melancholy of human existence,
even ghosts stray from the path of righteousness...

giorno: my piano solo before people get shit on is the best!
yuyuko: "Resurrection Butterfly -80% Reflowering-"

*「反魂蝶 -八分咲-」*
*"Resurrection Butterfly -80% Reflowering-"*

Yuyuko's theme alone is already one of the most beautifully elegant in the whole series, but then this turns it into a powerfully dramatic crescendo as she revives for one final spellcard.
And I'm pretty sure she's the only one in the whole series who does this. Eirin and Kaguya do something like this too, but it's not like you need to capture their last spells...
Mokou doesn't count either.

Duuude. This is even better. And on the same day too?
Flandre’s back everyone.
Odin is with us!

One of my coworkers who I found out was a touhou fan. I was eating lunch. She walked up to me and just played this in my ear. I screamed and dropped my lunch. PCB FLASH BACKS INTENSIFIES. She did buy me a new lunch though after. I also got weird looks from other coworkers after that. Edit 2: she told me she found out I was touhou fan cause my wallpaper was Yuyuko and Youmu. She also caught me playing Lost Word on my phone during break.

Her danmaku is the most beautiful attack in the whole touhou series.

[mitchi]

Even if you don't understand Japanese, anyone who has fought her should know.

「願わくは 花の下にて春死なむ
その如月の望月のころ」

「ほとけには桜の花をたてまつれ
我が後の世を人とぶらはば」


「身のうさを思ひしらでややみなまし
そむくならひのなき世なりせば」

[saphinarii]

remember finally beating Yuyuko?
Remember seeing her final spell and dying by it?
I do

[painovoimaton]

Such a great feeling when you finally get to hear 1:01 in-game

[wessltov]

Me the first time I beat Yuyuko: "Wait, why do I hear boss music...again?"

[greg]

"Oh my god.. I finally did it.."
_Remembering the melancholy of human existence_
_Even ghosts stray from the path of righteousness_
"...."
"OH GOD IT'S NOT OVER"

[IBeforeAExceptAfterK]

This always makes me so emotional. It's one of my most vivid memories of Touhou, facing this last trial for the first time and finally beating it. Perhaps when I have the time to practice, I'll finally go back and beat one of these games on a higher difficulty than easy...

Once you know how to beat Resurrection Butterfly - 80% Reflowering, it's all fun and games.

_Until Yuyuko somehow learns _*_Resurrection Butterfly - 100% Reflowering._*
