So...fuck! This took far longer than I thought it would. Between the bullet visibility issues present in this stage, the constant Ghost management, and my damn motor tics, this took me nearly half a month of on and off practice. I finally did it, though! This is Touhou 17's Extra Stage - without losing any lives, bombs, using any Hypers (more on that in a bit), and without activating any 'Spirit Strikes,' AKA Roar Breaks or Border Breaks.
Gonna be honest, this one...was kind of a pain in the ass. It's hard to see what you're dodging in this stage thanks to the constant excess of the color Red, and combined with the constant management of the Beast Spirits, it's no wonder I underestimated this beast. It's easily my least favorite Extra because of these negative traits alone, something I find sad since the stage - as well as Saki herself - are both pretty fun and quite tough.
Let's get this out of the way first. After Saki Spell #5, Triangle Chase, I accidentally activated an Otter Hyper during Nonspell #6. However, I realized what was happening in advance and went full-on Pacifist far before and after the Hyper activated, which I firmly believe still makes this run a legitimate ExNNNN. Honestly, I think the Otter Hyper actually made the nonspell harder, if I'm being honest! But I must digress.
Umm...what else? =w=' Oh yeah, let's talk runkillers! The stage is surprisingly hard; I can't even count the amount of times I screwed up the sections right before and after midboss Kutaka. Also, a huge shout-out to the stage portion before Saki...which can, quite frankly, go fuck itself!
Overall, this Extra is fun - until you decide to drop Hypers and, by extension, go for No Roar Breaks as well. This category truly reveals how much better designed this Extra Stage could have been, in my opinion. The bullet visibility is terrible, the Beast Spirit management is beyond annoying, and overall I really could have done without some of these design choices. There is some genuinely fantastic stuff here - like Saki herself - and the music is great as usual. I just wish it was less infuriating to play.
Anyway, I CAN FINALLY MOVE ON! FUCK YES! UMM, NEXT TIME ON FANTASYJARED...Hecatia ExNN (or not lmao) and a double-IN LNB coming your way! Until then, happy December and happy dodging, folks! :)
