Touhou 4 - Lotus Land Story - Perfect Extra Stage

A run of LLS's extra stage without dying or bombing.
First freaking attempt after the pacifist run.

For strategies, the end of stage bulletspam can be dodged with the same movements everytime.
For the rest I pretty much already said on the pacifist vid, so yeah.

There were actually quiet a few close calls.
See if you can spot them all!

When I watch these videos I sometimes put it in full screen and try to dodge the bullets with my cursor.

7:05
Hope you liked Mokous final non-spell because i guarantee you would love this

[jmonkey]

1:42 - 2:28 Nue confirmed as a PC98 character.

[dolls]

It's funny how all people are thinking that the light ball ist Nue, meanwhile Yuuka did something similar just one stage ago

@TheRecoloredEevee
The canonical first "maid" is Ruukoto in Phantsmagoria of Dim.Dream(TH3) who is the robot maid that reimu receives from Yumemi. Mugetsu dresses like a maid, but is according to ZUNs comment on her musical theme probably not a maid.

1:43 Midboss (Mysterious White Orb)
3:25 First Boss (Mugetsu)
4:50 Final Boss (Gengetsu)

There were actually three maids before Sakuya: Ruukuto, Mugetu, and tecnically, Sakuya is an expy of Yumeko.

VIVIT from the seuhou series might count.

I see quite a bit of CAVE influence in the pc98 era

Shinki's devil's recitation phase, for example, reminds me of dodonpachi stage 6 boss's nasty bullshit attack

In both you have a pattern restricting your movement while you need to avoid aimed bullets

Also, a lot of pc98 patterns are affected by your position while not being aimed direcrly, something CAVE really likes to do


Also, ZUN himself said that he was inspired by dodonpachi during the pc98 Era and that this is why he turned the games into bullet hells rather than breakout clones

In ybe windows era he developed his own style pf danmaku tho, which is vastly different

I love your little dances of victory at the ends of the perfect runs :D

[poledra]

I'll use this as a guide to do this level
Before seeing it, i could barely go to the first boss, and just to lose my final life to it
Edit : one week after, i've done
So hard

[CorpseTongji]

I honestly think the ball of light is Yuuka... Considering they both use similar attacks.

[joshuakaplan]

The old school touhou games are really fun. It reminds me of growing up and playing gameboy. That is, if I were to put a rock of crack in the cartridge slot.

[imyojimboandiusehacks]

Your rank: 伝説の人.... A legend 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[Vexal]

The cross in the background against Gengetsu just says Yumemi was there recently xD

[kabanfriends]

can't believe we had something harder than sans fight before year 2000



and people still say sans is hard

[jadebayoba]

I was "damn that's a short Extra"

Then phase 2 appeared

[OldDistantHermit]

The scariest part of the video for me was 5:41, I can picture just being like fuckfuckFUCKFUCK okay we're safe

[disc]

Watching this makes me realize i'll never be able to beat this even whit bombs which means i'll always have that unfinished feeling after i 1cc lunatic mode

[abarette_]

4:45 When playing this, I was like "what the fuck? well that was easy"

Then... Innocence started playing and I shat myself lmao.

[Rennnix]

1:43 that is a undefined fantastic object
