Touhou 7 (Perfect Cherry Blossom) - Yukari Pacifist Run

[joeyschuppe2]

This video deserves more views. I'm gonna get my friends to watch it lol.

I was wondering what pacifist run meant, till I saw you not shoot her, man how long did take for you to perfect this?

[gamercal101]

@colonel24567: I didn't try very many times under the pacifist conditions, I'll be completely honest. Yukari is one boss I am naturally very good at, since I understand how all of her cards work very well. Most of them don't get progressively harder either, so this really wasn't all that bad to do. I made far more mistakes than I should have in this run though, lol.

[Esupanitix]

Also, you think Mesh of Light and Darkness is hard/a pain? I absolutely love that card to death because I love Marisa (As a boss) and what does she use? Lasers and let me tell you dodging bullets while dodging lasers is a really fun time, especially when the lasers can't be streamed due to them not having some kind of aim based on your position.

[gamercal101]

@Esupanitix: Mesh is amazing, it just gets overwhelming to do a timeout of because of how fast it gets. Also strictly speaking the mesh is aimed for you - the laser spawn points centre around your current position. But since the directions are then randomised, it makes little difference.

[Esupanitix]

@gamercal101 I know, I'm just being SILLY AND HYPER AS FUCK right now. Yeah, I know about the speed thing, but I've tried to do it before and let me tell you it was so freaking fun.

If they ever make a second Ikaruga game, they should have someone put that attack in as a homage to this game.

[Esupanitix]

I don't make gaps in most of Yukari's nonspells when I have to restream because the gaps are often simple enough for me to manage. However, the later ones which get really complicated, I hate.

"look closely - the black core of each bubble is not the same size..." Uh, yes it is. What happens is that when the bubbles overlap they obscure each other, changing the patterns in their coloring. All individual bubbles are exactly the same though, down to the last pixel and hit box.

[gamercal101]

@DarkTiesandRibbons: ... huh. Could've fooled me! They totally looked and felt different at the time lol.

Maybe I'm just easily confused by them. Now that I think about it though, the effect is also observed in one of Satori's DS attacks, where the red and blue bubbles combine and make a purple one. Oh well, thanks for pointing that out.

[Hijijiriri]

@gamercal101 You know I may sound crazy for thinking like this, but I think the bubbles are really eyeballs. Think of it, the hitbox lies in the iris/pupil part, the part of the eye actually used to see. Satori (3rd eye) uses these eyes in all her original attacks (minus DS) and she makes purple ones (like her eye color!). It's really creepy if you think of it like that, but hey... Yea.

[gamercal101]

@Hijijiriri: You know, I could buy into that. It doesn't make universal sense to me, but I could definitely see it as being a thing for some characters at least, Yukari being one of them.

[S0nicerizo]

OMG When Yukari use the "Boundary of Life and Death" card it turns too crazy and is undodgable O_O.

Excellent run of Yukari Pacifist! I can't even beat Ran, I still practice Touhou but is too hard for me, and when u are dodgin too many bullets you lost you lost always your nerves, I hope someday I could beat any extra boss of Touhou!

Excellent Run as I said =D

I've never seen so many kunai.....

[TheZondac]

08:54 Oh, just been playing a some video games and all that jazz. And you?

[MrSmegheneghan]

I like how the games in general let you time the cards out, it's like the character's either impressed you held out that long, or got bored and went on to the next one.

Very well done on this. Now, Pacifist No-Death time! :D

[gamercal101]

@MrSmegheneghan: Hah, I'm not going to get that done like ever :P

The only one that would be remotely possible there is Flandre, and only if I could get through the entire thing until QED without bombing (stage and all). Which... is technically possible, but in reality will never happen.

[Honouguma]

You are a god for pulling this off.

You are a god for making a video containing Yukari's theme that I can listen to for 20+ minutes >:3

[ghostmexi007]

You HAX bro....XD

[Cloud551]

...Why must you make my normal attempts at her look pathetic. D:

[gamercal101]

@Cloud551: I don't do it on purpose! D:

[Cloud551]

@gamercal101 Also, Grash linked us to this on Skype, and it's been the topic of discussion for the past ten minutes. Congrats, that's the longest anything has held our attention for.

[gamercal101]

@Cloud551: Haha, that is quite the achievement then!
