This is my Lunatic run with Reimu A. This is one of my least favorite games simply because there only seems to be one good shottype which is this one. It's a shame because all the shottypes are unique in some way. Oh well. Like with MoF, the bombs are tied to your power so something to keep in mind. I do like the way graze works in this game. Whenever you graze enough, You can auto collect items regardless of how high you are on the screen. Getting lives is interesting. They remind me of heart containers from the Zelda series. You need 5 pieces in order to complete a life. The bosses will drop a life piece if you survive each attack. You can bomb but just don't die.

1. With this shottype, you can teleport to the other side of the screen if you double tap towards the side you're on and while you're not shooting. It's pretty neat. Not much else to say as usual except that this game has the second hardest 1st stage boss in the series. I normally always bomb her opening attack because it's weird. Yamame's spellcards can be tough as well so be careful.

2. Rather simple stage 2 for this game so not much to say here. I find the main fight with Parsee easier than Yamame for some reason. Her second spell is easy but make sure not to shoot the fake one. If you do, the fake will shoot a bunch of the big bubble bullets randomly and quickly.

3. This stage is pretty tough. The lasers can get confusing to deal with. Yuugi's first spell during the main fight is probably the easiest spell in this game. I don't have much to say about it lol. Her second spell is her hardest, but I find it fun to try and capture. Good fight overall.

4. The opening attack of this stage is weird. The bullets are aimed at you but I sometimes don't understand it. This stage is rather difficult and gets crazy. Satori is a cool boss. Her last three spellcards depends on what shottype you picked. I'm surprised I managed to capture the first two. But the last one was rather silly. There's a safespot right under her. It's weird and I've only managed to do it once successfully. I normally don't bother with safespots if there precise like that.

5. This stage theme is my favorite from this game even though this is like the hardest stage in this game. Orin is a mean 5th stage boss. Very mean but not as mean as a certain later boss in the series... Anyway, I had some difficulty with her unfortunately. For her first spell, you should shoot unfocused as much as possible to deal with the fairies. Her second spell is probably her easiest. I hated her 3rd spell until I learned that those white wisp wheels she shoots are aimed at you. I wish I had known that before.

6. Probably the longest 6th stage in the series. The parts with the wisps shooting at you isn't that bad but I guess I didn't want to risk dying so I used the screen wrapping ability that Reimu A has. Orin's spellcard isn't that hard unless you're playing as Marisa. Have fun if you are. Utsuho is an interesting boss. She likes throwing giant suns at you. Her spellcard background is weird. There's a cat, a galaxy and something else in there. I don't get it lol. Her fourth nonspell isn't hard but I messed it up twice. When she shoots the yellow bullets the first time, make sure you're moving left and the second time to the right. Her last spell isn't that hard but it pulls you towards her so you have to work with it when you're dodging. It's hard to explain.
