It's fucking amazing how a 2D sprite game's end stage music can evoke so much emotion. You would think you're watching the last desperate stand of some army in some epic war movie or something.
Urgh no, not IOSYS. The only decent album they've released recently was JeuXinTerdiTs. Sorry but apart from that they haven't had a good album in a long time.
The most amazing UFO music theme to me, it's just so damn awesome. Truly sounds like a prelude to a hard or epic battle, yet at the same time, desperate and inspiring.
When I got to stage 6 of UFO, I died at least two times because I was paying more attention to this song than the actual bullets. Plus, this theme was not as upbeat as the other stage 6 themes, leading me to think that this boss was going to be a piece of cake.
Once you know how it works, more than half of Sakuya's fight is trivial even on lunatic. The rest can be beaten with bombs. Compare to Remilia, who has only two trivial attacks, 3 attacks that will randomly wall you, and possibly the hardest spell card ever. But hey, to each their own.
Hardest spell card ever? I still cast my vote for Border of Life and Death, sorry. That card walls you so often it's almost funny.
I agree with you, though. Sakuya falls far, far below Remilia. And while Orin is hard... Okuu is even worse. You don't think the suns she throws out will be that threatening... but they really, really are. Just because it looks simple doesn't mean it's easy.
I don't want to clog up the comments any more with this conversation, but while BoLaD is difficult, there's a loophole that makes it really easy if exploited. Scarlet Meister has no such trick.
And Utsuho's the easiest Windows series final boss. She completely falls apart after her second spell card and becomes really easy. Orin's much harder.
In any stage 6 touhou game, the song always gives off a feeling of extreme power through sophistication. Somehow ZUN always can portray it perfectly. He's a genius he is.
I think ZUN plans the timing as well to add some kind of maximum effect. It wouldn't be a mere coincidence that the audio & visuals would appear in sync for every game.
Agree with the originality comment. Love the unusual percussion here. Reminds me (in terms of percussion and originality, not in tune) of SA's stage 2
I'm beginning to believe that it is the sworn duty of the Touhou fandom to put out craploads of fanart. Maybe it upholds the balance of the universe or something.

@XxKoishiKomeijixX This one is actually a sort of remake of one of the songs from the PC-98 games

According to wiki, with an interview with ZUN, apparently he was gonna make Myouren the stage 6 boss.
Zun: However, having an old man in the game would be weird...
I thought... why not just make it a little sister instead of brother?

@BubbleMusic911 what do you think Byakuren is? she's Myourens little sister. :P

@groudonsbest Actually, other way around. Myouren is the younger brother :P I meant like, why not just make Myouren a girl? >_>

@BubbleMusic911 oh ya, now that i read up about her a bit more :P i just guess since Myouren died first i thought that he was the older brother.

when the song slows down towards the end and the stage opens up to a sunset with only the heartbeat drum in the background, that shit be epic.

I was hoping the calm, but somehow epic mood of this song would carry into the battle. It didn't.
However, I can't say I was disappointed either.

Actually, ZUN spelled "Houkai", "Hokkai". "Hokkai" is the correct way of spelling it.
Oh, and O.o to the song.

Especially stage 6. It reloops and starts the heart beat when you're talking to her.
