  You'll have to tell me more about those characters cause I have no idea what you were just saying. What do they do and what kind of Youkai are they? More importantly after leaving the Netherworld...where the hell does the character travel to and why?

  
  
  I have no clue. I can't read Japanese. I just know their names because it's written in English underneath the kanji, and I know that Yoshika is a Kyonshi, since that's the Japanese version of the Jiang Shi, which is the hopping vampire/zombie of Chinese lore.

  So a Kyonshi is a Chinese Zombie? I can see why you would match her with Meiling as they are both Chinese
  
  I didn't notice their names written in english underneath :(
  
  Oh wells. Now I know. I knew it was some sort of zombie based on her arm movements.
  
  Uploading my Hard Replay on Stage 1. I'll show ya guys how I did once that finishes processing.
  
  Kitaek. What in hell do you record to make it not lag >.> So hard to record a decent vid of Touhou cause Fraps lags like heck sometimes. Still mostly above 30fps in recording so better than nothing.
  
  EDIT: Here's my Replay.

  I could have cleared all her spells on Hard but I panicked at the end as you saw. Was afraid I was going to get hit :/

  Dialogue and character profiles translated. Even the two newcomers, in the box at the bottom.

  Typical Yuyuko. Battling Youmu before she's permitted to leave.
  
  That Ghost really doesn't want to let Youmu out >.>
  
  Also I wonder who is controlling that Jiang Shi.
  
  Yoshika
  ２２時になったら起こしてね
  When it reaches 10p.m., wake me up.
  Marisa
  起こさねぇよ！
  I'm not gonna wake you up!
  
  Sanae
  キョンシーは既に幻想だけど
  ゾンビは人気者ですよ？
  Jiang shi have faded to fantasy,
  but zombies are really popular, right?
  
  Lol Sanae. You're like me. Go go Zobmies! Dodge them zombie danmaku!
  
  Lulz! So much enjoyable when I know what they are saying.

  I like the new HP bar representation.
  
  Kinda, I guess. Then again, you're more focused on where the heck she is rather than the very top of the screen....while dodging bullets.

  It's new?
  
  Have you played Fairy Wars? The same HP Representation was present in that game as well.

  I figured as much. Fairy Wars was a bit of a pain anyways. ZUN trolled us with that one. Cirno was seeing way too much danmaku then there actually was. That was ZUN's explanation on it's difficulty anyways.

  Why hello, children. What do we have here?
  
  Touhou 13? Portal 2? Battlefield 3?
  
  
  My... My... It's going to be a pretty busy year...

  I found out something interesting about the Jiang Shi on Stage 3. Her final spellcard in Normal/Easy she shoots out spirits and then absorbs them to heal. Making it for an annoying spellcard as she keeps gaining health.
  
  No wonder Kogasa was complaining about timing out on her spellcards >.>
  
  I timed out on her 1st one cause I was trying not to get killed by the Danmaku.
  
  Finished the last spell with like 1 second remaining.

  Ugh, I saw that too. Freaked me out on Easy.
  
  And I only played easy because I'm tired and haven't played in awhile.

  1. Thats the easiest lunatic stage I've ever seen.
  2. Go for the items! Hold Shift to activate super gravity item pull!
  3. Go for the souls D: They increase your point value and gives you longer invincibility after getting hit.
