Touhou 7 - Perfect Cherry Blossom - Resurrection Butterfly -80% Reflowering-

Damn, longest 66 seconds of my life.

Yuyuko's infamous last spell card, the Lunatic version of Resurrection Butterfly, is arguably one of the most difficult cards to capture in the series. This time out card requires you to survive 9 iterations of hell (emphasis on the red diagonal streams followed by the bubbles), thus making it far more difficult than Spell 221 from Imperishable Night.

I actually captured this far sooner than I expected, but this is only more reason to be happier with this capture. Seeing those last blue and purple butterflies slow down and disintegrate into star items followed by seeing the words "Spell Card Bonus!" is an incredibly epic experience. This was a far more relieving capture than Virtue of Wind God because I still found Kanako fun to a degree after countless runs... on the other hand, Yuyuko began boring the hell out of me after only a handful of runs. Happy to have this accomplishment under my belt :)

Oh, and one last thing: enjoy this video in super high quality. In order to take advantage of YouTube's new HD features, this video was compiled in 960x720. Watch this using the HD 720p tag "&fmt=22" at the end of the URL and then full screen it, or just click the link under the video as noted by the annotation in the beginning. I dare you to do it. Just look how beautiful it is :P

@LemonMeringueFox yuyuko

[blackeyedp7]

what's the difference between butterfly bullets and normal bullets?

[bjwdestroyer]

@blackeyedp7

Butterfly bullets look like butterflies.

[cjn1414118]

I've been playing normal mode, so I'm not sure if the strat changes or not, but wouldn't it be a lot simply to evade the red butterflies closer to the top of the screen before they split?

[bjwdestroyer]

@cjn1414118

That might actually be easier for some players, I don't know--all I know is that it wasn't any easier for me back when I worked on this card years ago. I do know that the famous Japanese player, GIL, does just that though by dodging everything in the top right quadrant of the screen.

Now imagine 100% reflowering.

[Hestenfeiser]

Wait... Do you really dodge the red butterflies in the bottom of the screen? Isn't it easier if you do it in the middle of the screen?

[blackeyedp7]

@bjwdestroyer it's actually the tree... Yuyuko's body was under the tree and her ghost was collecting Spring in order to resurect whoever was under the tree, which was herself. She didn't know that. So after you beat her ghost form, enough spring is released to revive yuyuko's body and make the tree start releasing all the spring, thereby attacking you.

[happyhippo2704]

i think the percentage in the flowering refers to the saigyoji tree, if it reachs 100%, yuyuko body uder the tree will be revived and the tree seal will be broken, thus making yuyuko ghost disappear

there is no way it can get past 100% imo

[dandynood]

@Phoenix5M her last word in IN could be that, also imagine a 120% reflowering

[D4mnX]

@silvenflame And 120%?

ULTRA PAAATCH

[silvenflame]

@Phoenix5M that would be her last word in IN.

[yooshiman]

@Phoenix5M IMPOSSIBRU!

[123KoishiSama321]

@LemonMeringueFox Saigyou Ayakashi. It's just Yuyuko's Shadow.
