Love-coloured Magic - Hisoutensoku Mix

[JapanForSale]

It's a beautiful song. Adds a helluva nice samba-type flavor to the original, as does almost every other song in the fighting series. But it 's just waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too "easy-listening" to fit in a fighting game.

This makes you feel more like dancing than fighting.

[Neherazade]

I think this theme fits marisa better than most others... but yah. just not suited for a fighting game.

still great work tho, ZUN!

[DarkOverord]

@Neherazade Actually wasn't ZUN who did this arrange o: Was Tasofro

[dogAddicted]

I'm pretty sure this is more of a remix of the Story of Eastern Wonderland's version. Why I say that: listen to the last note at the end of the first loop. It ends low; LCMS ends with a high note. LCM ends with a low note. It's not just a name difference.

[GherkiKnight]

Personally, I think this is better than her 10.5 theme; just a bit more Marisa-ish, and not the best for fighting, but it goes nicely with Marisa's spells. Now then. *Braces for OBJECTION stamp to forehead*

[ecchibanzaii]

12.3 version of Marisa's theme is probably the worst one ever in the games.

Just saying.

[DarkOverord]

@ecchibanzaii It's not bad but I agree, it's just not Marisa. :V It is nice, and is brilliant for easy listening, but unfitting for a fighting game.

[ecchibanzaii]

@DarkOverord Indeed.

I just tried Storymode again since I failed with Sanae so miserable against Okuu's last spell card.

This time I played as Cirno... man that story mode was way to easy.

[ecchibanzaii]

@DarkOverord We both have the same feeling about that then.

This fits more if it was her song when she wasn't in a fight.

[hypospeedytank]

this song put me in a happy mood

[flarp22]

This has an entirely different feel compared to IN's version. There's something surprisingly catchy about this one if you ask me. Unfitting for a fighting game though. >_>

[GarrinSchneider]

i prefer Touhou 8's version....

touhou 12.3's BGM sucks !

except for Sanae's theme

[DarkOverord]

@GarrinSchneider If you say so. While I agree that IN's version is better, Shangai Teahouse from 12.3 is better than EoSD's =/

[Darksamus93]

Why does this remind me of Mother 3....?

[KarvArth]

That image would be a great wallpaper. Is it available somewhere? Can I get a link to the image? Thanks!

[DarkOverord]

Check your PM's.

[EphidelDarkheart]

This song is "upbeat" in its own way. I like it, though it's understandable that you'd want something more rockin' after Marisa's past themes.

[BoneBeastKimimaro]

What's the difference between "Love-Colored Magic" and "Love-Colored Master Spark"? They sound like the same sort of beat and all, but is there any actual difference between the two?

[DarkOverord]

Not a bit of difference. Love-Coloured Master Spark is just a remix of Love-Coloured Magic just like Maiden's Capriccio ~ Dream Battle is just a remix of Maiden's Capriccio. Though LCMS is a bit more upbeat than LCM (The original PC-98 version, not this one).

[BoneBeastKimimaro]

Mmm.... So technically, this remix could be called either "Love-Colored Master Spark" or "Love Coloured Magic" and it wouldn't matter?

[DarkOverord]

Well. XD The difference is the Japanese. This is called 恋色マジック, which means Love-Coloured Magic, whereas the remix is 恋色マスタースパーク, AKA Love-Coloured Master Spark. Gotta love languages huh :P

[Happyhorse]

do I hear something like a doorbell sound at 1:48 ownwards?

[DarkOverord]

Whoops. That'll be trillian. Herp.

[Daniel35715]

I like it, I think that suit her, more for her personality than just for being "fighting game"

Anyway, It's kind of relaxing as a music theme, nice remix =)

[consolemaniac91]

Personally, I like it.

It gives the impression of a suave cat burglar, which Marisa pretty much is.

[CrashCrazE13]

So why haven't they mad an arrangement of Marisa's PoFV theme yet? I mean, I love Love Coloured Magic and Love Coloured Masterspark, but too many mixes get old.

[KeinHipHopFan]

Yep, this theme really doens't fit her. Casket of Star was perfect for her :3

[Retrofiuter]

I love this remix, but it doesn't fit Marisa at all.

A shame, because it's a great remix.

[yamicin]

Personally I love it, IMHO

[TatariZane2002]

I'm sorry to say this, but I don't really like this remix, It's good that it's back, but it sounds like a native American would do.

[DarkOverord]

Like I said, it's okay. But. I would've preferred something better. It just doesn't suit Marisa to me. Normally her themes are a lot more upbeat and active.

[TatariZane2002]

Yeah, but this just doesn't feel right.

[DarkOverord]

Specially in a fighting game =/

[TatariZane2002]

Yep.
