BlitzBlast posted:Supposedly it's a favorite among arrangers. Inertia probably plays a larger part at this point though. It used to be explicitly shipping, but then some people complained so they relabeled it as the more generic "Partner". Which I choose to believe refers to them performing comedy routines together.

Okay, I put in my votes, and I'll spare the thread a "partnership" debate. In descending order: Best Touhous: Byakuren, Sanae, Yukari, Satori, Mokou Best musics: Faith is for the Transient People, Cinderella Cage, Border of Life, the Puppeteer of Bucuresti, Ancient Temple, Chinese Tea, Tohno Gensou Monogatari For the most part, my choices in music tend to diverge from my character preferences. I don't much care for Byakuren's theme, and Yukari's can arguably be downright grating to listen to. Hokuto fucked around with this message at 21:10 on Jun 12, 2013 |

I can't find Kasen in the dropdown choices.  I guess I'm blind.e: vvv thanks. Descending order, voted for Utsuho, Yukari, Kasen, Sanae, Miko. Didn't vote for music because gently caress if I'm going to try to rank my favorites. e: also what's the last question on the demographics questionnaire? Google Translate was just as confusing as usual. versus fucked around with this message at 22:14 on Jun 12, 2013 |

Yasser Arafatwa posted:I still loving love Necrofantasia, haters vacate. "When I listen to this song, I feel a strong force that exhausts my physical energy. It's just with this song that I may not see things in the present. The illusions I see are both from the present and the future. 'Necro-' means 'death'. The fantastic world of the dead. The fantastic world that only reveals itself at the time of death. That is why this song has no feelings of the past. There needs to be a song like that where you can feel the present." "Necro-Fantasia, a fantasia of death. It sounds pretty hardcore. You can't savor death while you're still alive. Death is always an illusion to the living." Just don't turn the volume high enough that your soul gets drained through your ears and you're good

Just voted, also took the questionnaire. Best Touhou:Koishi, Rumia, Miko, Komachi, and Byakuren Best Music:Hartmans, True Admin, Green Eyed Jealousy, Suigetsu, Riverwside View, and Boys and Girls of Science Era Best Partner:Reimu and Marisa Necrofantasia is probably my least favorite, followed by Cherry Blossom. Took me a while to appreciate Cosmic Mind, but I didn't vote for it because I didn't see a reason to promote a theme most people liked already. I picked Reimu and Marisa as best partner(in crime). Reimu beats all in her path and Marisa steals their stuff.

Pureauthor posted:That poll reminded me of a question I want to ask - Why exactly does Septette for the Dead Princess win the music polls so consistently? It's a nice song and all but I wouldn't even rate it in ZUN's top 5 of final boss music, let alone the entire series. There are other tracks that are better music, but they tend to be not nearly as flexible. There's only so many ways to arrange Evening Primrose.

Favorite Characters: Youmu Konpaku, Wriggle Nightbug, Suika Ibuki, Sakuya Izayoi, and Arrow Suwa Child to Model. Favorite Music: Ancient Temple, Cinderella Cage, Fires of Hokkai, Suwa Foughten Field, Native Faith, The Maid and the Pocket Watch of Blood, Fairy Great Wars Favorite Partners: Suika and Yuugi. They're here to kick rear end and get drunk, and luckily for you Suika's gourd contains an unlimited amount of sake.

TOO SCSI FOR MY CAT posted:Septette is a sweet spot for arrangement. The melody is simple but not boring, has plenty of voices to play with different instruments or use as vocals, and there's like five distinct themes that can be shuffled around to liven things up. The character association helps too, when the arrangement is vocal, because "refined princess" works both when it's taken seriously or played for laughs. Or Night Falls, as it was brought up earlier in the page. It's kind of a sad state of affairs that Necrofantasia gets about fifty times the amount of arranges that Night Falls does because everybody and their mother seem to love Yukari, but the former is apparently a lot more adaptable to heavy metal guitar or techno oontz. Of course, Night Falls has more good remixes, but that's mostly because fewer screw it up. DrSunshine posted:Not until ZUN makes a Touhou who wears a fedora and has a sword of finest Hanzo steel. So... Youmu.

If this trend continues, by 2099, more than 90% of all Touhous will not have hats.
