Embodiment of Scarlet Devil - MarisaA, Extra Stage CLEAR (Part 2 of 2)

Part 2 of my MarisaA EoSD EX Stage clear! Continuing where we left off...

Taboo [Maze of Love]
禁忌「恋の迷路」
[Maze of Love] is one of those cards that's either ridiculously easy, or makes giving birth look like a joke in terms of difficulty. I think it's easier with Marisa, since Reimu can't keep up with the gaps in the bullets after a few seconds without unfocusing. This card took roughly two months to capture on a somewhat regular basis; I still find myself dying or bombing on it a lot. D:

Forbidden Barrage [Starbow Break]
禁弾「スターボウブレイク」
There is a safe spot in this card, in the upper-left corner, if I recall correctly. However, finding it with Marisa and timing out the card would, over time, take much more effort than just shooting the hell out of Flandre, so I stuck with that. Still had to bomb, though. D:

Forbidden Barrage [Catadioptric]
禁弾「カタディオプトリック」
This.
This card.
This is my most hated attack in the entire series. Flandre's movements are always the same, but her bullet patterns are, to my knowledge, not. You get no room to move and bullets come at you at MACH2. Utter bullshit.
I still laugh at myself though. The death at 1:43 was basically me going LOL NOTHING WILL EVER HIT ME HE- *dies*

Forbidden Barrage [Counter Clock]
禁弾「過去を刻む時計」
This is one of those cards I gave up on capturing. I could never figure out how to get past the second "turn" of the clock hands, so I decided to just bomb through it. :D
If I could figure out that part, this card'd be pretty easy. The bullets don't move too fast, and they're in a fairly predictable pattern. D:

Secret Barrage [And Then There Will Be None?]
秘弾「そして誰もいなくなるか？」
Every EX boss in the Windows series has a survival card as their second-last attack, and Flandre is no exception. The dodge at 3:04 was total luck. I never expected that to actually work. The rest of the card is fairly simple, and most involves moving down at the right time, but when it gets really fast at the end, especially with the green pattern, it got to be too much and I just bombed again.

Q.E.D. [Ripple of 495 Years]
ＱＥＤ「４９５年の波紋」
Flandre's final attack. Oh god, I don't think I've ever been as tense in any game as I was at this point. It's amazing how quickly I lost those two lives to this card. After that, it was basically me bombing the fuck out of anything that came near me. I could have bombed before losing the lives and ended with higher endgame bonuses, but I was an idiot and didn't think I'd need to until I had no lives left. |D
To be fair, this was the second time I had ever reached Q.E.D., so being terrible at it is somewhat expected.


Final score is 169,682,520! :D
