A video of the Lunatic bosses of Imperishable Night done without any mistakes.

This was uhh, a "bit" more difficult than the bosses from PCB or MoF, that's for sure.
And with that I did the bosses from my 3 favorite Touhou games without mistakes, that was a lot quicker than I thought.
Also this game has 8 bosses instead of the usual 6 due to different routes in the game so it took extra time and effort, yeet. And all of them have optional Last Spells that I had to capture as well.
I have to say that doing these made me improve my skill a lot in quite a short amount of time. I'm still not even close to doing No Bomb runs or the like but I have certainly improved in the art of dodging the bullets.
Well with that out of the way, here are the timestamps and some additonal commentary about the bosses:

Wriggle Nightbug - 0:00
Mystia Lorelei - 1:20
Keine Kamishirasawa - 3:17
Reimu Hakurei - 5:24
Marisa Kirisame - 9:38
Reisen U Inaba - 13:55
Eirin Yagokoro - 16:51
Kaguya Houraisan - 22:44

Wriggle is your stage 1 boss that's almost completely static except for some small parts on the non spells. Really nothing difficult on this fight and you can cheese the Last Spell by spinning around the boss.

Mystia is also not that difficult except for her 1st spell which can give some bad situation due to the rng it has. The non spell right after can also be a bit dumb if the boss is not on the right of the screen.

Keine is almost completely static, the only thing that can kill you after practicing the fight is her first spell if you fail to kill the familiars properly. The 2nd non can also give some bad situations if she's low on the screen a lot.

I don't like Reimu. The fight has a lot more RNG than I thought it did. The easiest things in the fight are probably her nons and 2nd spell. Everything else can give some bad situations occasionally. Her penultimate spell dies really quickly when playing with Scarlet team so that's nice. And don't get me started on the Last Spell, what a disaster that is. I figured out how it works *a bit* at least.

I like Marisa though. For the longest of time I thought this boss has a lot of RNG. Turns out it has less than Reimu does. Every non can be made basically static through your movement except for the 3rd one, and the spells that have randomness are not really that difficult anyway. And the last spell is trivial compared to Reimu's.

Reisen is a really easy stage 5 boss. The only dangerous thing in this fight is her penultimate spell. The Last Spell is trivial with the route I did.

Eirin. Oh God. The start of the fight is not *that* bad compared to Kaguya, only her 2nd spell and 3rd non can be a bit disgusting with the RNG it gives. After that though? Terrible. There's Apollo 13 which took me 300 tries to figure out how it works, after that is her final which can be misdirected, which I was doing a really bad job at. And after that there's Hourai Elixir which can just end you if it wants you at the final seconds. And yes it was my first Hourai cap, didn't even bother practicing it because it takes so long to get to the hard part. This boss took an entire day of attempts to do without mistakes.

Kaguya. Oh God. The start of the fight is a disaster compared to Eirin. The first 5 attacks can end you if they feel like it. The fight calms down on the later half though, thankfully. The only other restart point after the beginning of the fight is her final Last Spell, Rising World. It's extremely fast and can give bad situations but thankfully I only died once there when I was trying to do this. Kaguya took a day of practice and another day of attempts. I honestly don't know if Kaguya or Eirin is worse.
