Week 24 Day 6.8 - Fate of Sixty Years

Now, what did I say about mini-posts? This is my second one this week already. Man! Is that a good thing or a bad thing?

In any case, I've had people wondering, why did I start from Touhou 6? Honestly, it's because I never played the first 5, nor am I familiar with the boss music there. I only do the Windows' games version.
Then, why did I jump from Touhou 8 (Imperishable Night) to Touhuo 10 (Mountain of Faith). Well, I actually got lazy and didn't want to do it initially. But here is where THIS post comes in. This post is solely here for:-



Song: 六十年目の東方裁判　～ Fate of Sixty Years
Rokujūnemme no Touhou Saiban ~ Fate of Sixty Years (Touhou Judgement in the Sixtieth Year ~ Fate of Sixty Years)

Theme of Shikieiki Yamaxanadu (四季映姫・ヤマザナドゥ | Shikieiki Yamazanadu)



Shikieki Yamaxanadu, the judge of the underworld that judges clearly in black and white, is the boss for the 9th Touhou game, Touhou Kaeidzuka ~ Phantasmagoria of Flower View (東方花映塚 〜 Phantasmagoria of Flower View | Oriental Flower Viewing Mound). Below is a gameplay video featuring the Previous boss (Komachi) and the final boss (at hardest difficulty):-


[Note: Touhou 9 plays a bit differently from the other touhou games so far]

For additional videos, let's start off NOT with the usual suspects:-


[Let's begin with the 14 minute long version by SHO]


[Piano version by イルカ]


[AWESOME epic version by WAVE. Love the chanting types]


[どぶ ウサギ (dBu) version. I'm liking them more and more now]

So yea.. short post, but with plenty of good stuffs I'd say.
While I almost gave this one a miss, it did manage to generate some great epic music. Makes it feel worth it to conduct this mini post now.

In any case, once again missing marasy and EWI, and I didn't bother to look for TAMusic's, so apologies for that.

Until tomorrow for the true final one (unless Touhou 13 comes out by tomorrow, in which case, I'm screwed), see ya around.

Note: POFV is actually the only touhou game where I can manage to beat in Lunatic... Though Extra mode is TOO MUCH for me.
