Mountain of Faith - Extra Stage:
So, Reimu finally gets to the Inner chamber of Moriya Shrine for the first time (Although this is my 2nd time here since i beat SA 1st but that's just me) to meet kanako's "friend", but this is touhou and everything that moves wants to kill you with way more pretty looking bullets than necessary.
Eventually you'll meet kanako again as a mini-boss who'll try to stop you from seeing her "friend" but her attacks are easy to learn so she won't be much trouble to anyone.
In the end you meet suwako and the fight begins. Well I got mixed opinions about this fight. I find it's the easiest extra stage so far, just like Mountain of Faith in general. The stage took only a couple of tries to unlock and a few tries to clear aswell. On the other hand, since i found it that easy i was hoping to do a no death run or to capture all spells easily aswell, and it turned out to be a painful journey (still trying tough) since some spells really go all the way to force you to bomb (hey Native myth vs. Central Myth).
Moving on to the fight itself:
Most non-spell cards are quite straightforward and easy, the toughest ones would actually be the 5th one since it can get you stuck sometimes and i it also took me a while to get used to the 1st one which can mess with your eyes a bit.
Now to the spell-cards,
#1 - Party Start "Two Bows, Two Claps, One Bow"
An easy start, I just go to the side with the green laser and move along with it, that's it.
#2 - Native God "Long arm and Long Leg"
Not a nice spell for claustrophobics, but don't panic, move close to the lasers slowly and go through the ring of bullets whenever you can.
#3 - Divine Tool "Moriya's Iron Ring"
Also a simple spell, either stay behind or in front of suwako. Switch places whenever the first ring she throws gets close to you. Be careful with the rings reflected through the walls tough. (Reflected "Iron rings" ?? really?? Gods these days...)
#4- Spring Sign - "Jade of the Horrid River"
This spell wins the award of the most dangerous spell with the least bullets. Good positioning is key in this one. I try to stay in the top of the.. er.. tube? and go down along one of the walls but this doesn't work on all the waves. It's not hard to get used to this one tough and don't be afraid to bomb if you get stuck.
#5- Frog Hunting - "Snake Eats the Croaking Frog"
Oh I really enjoy this spell, it can be scary at first but its not hard at all, just follow the movement like in the video. The tricky part is getting through the bullets in each wave before going around, but there's plenty of space to, most of the times.
#6- Native God - "7 Stones and 7 Trees"
... and a headache. Wait that's not it's name? damn.. it should. I can't explain it really, the movement of the bullets can make this a really annoying spell since they come at you in an odd angle. I find that being as forward as possible before the bullets come at you makes it a bit easier since you have some more space before you get stuck and by then the lasers have already faded so all's fine.
#7- Native God "Froggy Braves the Elements"
Pure dodging spell, that's all there is to it. Capturing this card is actually like going through rain and not getting wet.
#8- Native God - "Red Frog in Houei Era 4"
Aka "Spell that forces you to bomb #1". I try to save as much space as possible so I can have an easier time when the 2nd copy appears, I did a mistake tough when I moved backwards and got stuck.Always Move forward unless you can't. if you move backwards at any time you'll most likely get stuck and die or be forced to bomb.
#9- Suwa War - "Native Myth vs. Central Myth"
Aka "Spell that forces you to bomb #2 - Deadly Sunflowers of Doom".
The spell itself isn't that hard. Capturing it tough is a whole different story since it gets too chaotic by the end.
#10- Scourge Sign - "Mishaguji-sama"
Simple pattern but you have to react faster and faster towards the end as the gaps between rings get smaller and smaller which can make you panic a bit.
--
Well overall the patterns and fights aren't that complicated at all and like I said before, I think MoF is the easiest touhou so far since it took me little time to get used to it and clear it. Still its as enjoyable as the others and Suwako's theme is nice and cheerful ^^ (and Kanako's theme is awesome too for the record)
Hope you Enjoy!
