**READ BEFORE WATCHING FOR MAXIMUM EFFECT**
What's a Touhou game without an EX stage of some sort? Touhou Unreal Mahjong is no exception, and boy, is it quite a stage!
The stage is the setting for the STG-type game Uwabami Breakers:

For the lazy, two things of specific note; the story and a line of character description:
Storyline (from the wiki):
A twilight bar-room.
A heaven on earth where even the lowest of drunkards sleeps peacefully.
This was the home of a group of master bartenders who boasted they could send even the heaviest of drinkers under the table.
These bartenders, called the "Uwabami Breakers" (or "Drunkard Breakers") devoted their every waking hour to devising new menus every day.
Many brave men had fallen to their menus.
Even though the wasted drunks were afflicted with the worst of hangovers every day, they couldn't resist the masters' stimulating new menus.
That was just as the masters had planned.
Nobody dreamed of defying the "Uwabami Breakers" in this bar.
Except for one certain drunk.
Let that sink in for a minute, then read this character line of note:
They say if you spent the night drinking 'til dawn there, you would see "a mysterious world of curtain fire"...
(Note: the quoted part links to the Touhou Wiki page for Gensokyo in said wiki)
I knew of the meme that ZUN's always drunk, but I wasn't expecting him to be effectively a legendary drinker even in a Touhou spinoff game he had a part in.
@gargravarr2 This was roughly my 8th attempt at this match, and by then I had quite a few cases of one of my opponents scoring 200k+ in a single hand and leaving me forced to score a monster to even have a chance. I was dealing that hand and had a lead, so I figured it would be better for me to risk falling behind a bit (which happened) to let the deal advance than take what looked like a moderate-sized hand and risk an extra chance for one of them to light me up yet again.
