Sidebar: I wonder what ZUN is trying to say, if anything, about the material nature of having a parental support structure when writing about the Moriya and Hakurei shrines. It is common to interpret Kanako and Suwako as Sanae's mothers. On the other hand, Reimu's god is distant to the point of irrelevance, and coincidentally she has no mothers. Obviously Reimu DOES have people that support her, but having a family name that is both as old as the ground itself, and also has influence in the modern world, means Sanae has access to things Reimu can not. Same as actual people.

Anyways, there's nothing that incredible in this one, but all together it hits this vibe that really works for me. Its a mountain worth climbing at least once, even if Kanako kicks you all the way back down the first chance she gets. 3.5 stars

Der Anfang einer neuen Ära.
nachdem Teil 8 es mit der Kompläxität übertrieben hat, ging man hier ein paar Schritte zurück und liefert nach Teil 2 das mechanisch simpelste Spiel der Reihe.
Mit der Bewertung tue ich mich etwas schwer. An sich ist es ein gutes Spiel, nur habe gefällt mir die Mechanik mit den Bomben nicht und zum anderen habe ich ein etwas frustrierendes Erlebnis mit dem Spiel, da man auf Easy IMMER das schlechte Ende bekommt, egal ob man Continues benutzt hat oder nicht. Glücklicherweise ist das das letzte Spiel, dass einen so für das Spiel auf Easy bestraft. In den nachfolgenden Teilen bekommt man lediglich nicht die Extra Stage, auf die ich eh verzichten kann, da ich die nicht spiele, da ich zu schlecht bin.
Insgesamt gutes Spiel, jedoch Punktabzug wegen persönlichen Ansichten und Erlebnissen.

Another one of my fav touhou games visually!!! This one took me a minute to beat ADMITTEDLY (kanakos nonspells.....what the fawk....) so im havjng a hard time finding nice things to say without getting war flashbacks but this game is really good i promise!!!!!!!! It felt VERY fast paced in comparison to other games in the series which i think contrasts really well with how serene the game is in terms of backgrounds & music, a lot of the danmaku is visually pleasing too while still being difficult man i dont know how he does it. Ive seen people complain about how you can only play 2 different characters but You get to pick which shot type you want bro come on is that not cool....Just close your eyes and pretend its youmu or something idgaf. The only thing i can agree with is how weird the bomb system is (instead of collecting spell pieces it takes away a full point from your shot power) like there was no reason for that Mr zun and u know that...Anyways this game is TOO GOOD other than that i would recommend it as your second game instead of first solely because thjs game has weird ass mechanics and if you want a good normal touhou game to start with you should play pcb (i am booed off the stage)
