Hooray! :v: Just when the cast starts to get large they add this.

From the looks of it, I'm guessing the secondary character in the Unit does a single PLA attack like the Squads in Alpha 2/3 and Z, rather then just pick their attacks like in OG.

That's pretty normal for fighting game main characters. They're typically the balanced type without any huge gimmick.

It's pretty funny how every other Touhou faction is, at most, morally neutral and just not thinking too hard of the consequences of their actions.

Meanwhile the Daoists are literal supervillans.

The only truly unsympathetic Touhous are probably the various fairies. And they're basically kids so who cares what crazy shenanigans they get others into.

Incidentally, the fairies are the best Touhous. :v:

Because it's horrible.

Basically Wikia kept making the layout of the site more and more obnoxious so more ads could get shoved on, the people actually responsible for running the Wiki had enough of it and ditched the place. With it now run by corporate managers, the wikia wiki quickly became a cesspool as any sort of moderation stopped and vandalism reigned supreme.

Do FMW1 and 2 use the same engine?

I would have figured at least that the guys who made the patch for 1 could tell how to patch 2. Like, even if they don't do it, show others how they did it/release whatever tool they made.

I hope they take the stage in IN where you fight Reimu or Marisa and make it a big brawl between two different factions like Zeuth vs Zeuth.

Labyrinth of Touhou 2 apparently now has a full English translation. Seems like it's still just a release candidate - people are nitpicking it right now - but give it a couple of days and it should be good.

Also, did the Palanquin ship battle theme get posted yet? Because I can't seem to find it.

It was included as a bonus track for the FMW2 OST so BlitzBlast probably didn't bother to rip it.

And yes, From Now on We'll Be Together is like the best song in the game. It's based off one of the better UC tracks after all.

Guys, guys, you're thinking about it wrong by going at it from a Touhou standpoint.

If we think from an SRW standpoint, then it becomes obvious.

It's Euzeth.

A bizzre, esoteric power.

Silly head gear.

Causes incidents because he's a dick.

Of course, Euzeth's been a touhou the whole time.

I forget what spurred Reimu to charge in after Yukari once that part of it was done. Did Yuyuko mention being tipped off about something under the tree by Mrs Gap?

Reimu was pissed that there was still a hole between this world and the Netherworld, Yuyuko told her that Yukari was the one who made the gate. So Reimu/Marisa/Sakuya barged into Yukari's place, but she was sleeping(Hibernating) at the time. So they beat up Ran and come back a few months later, beat up Yukari so Yukari promises to fix the problem.

Judging by how the Netherworld is now a popular vacation spot in Gensokyo, I don't think that worked out.

The best part about Yuyuko is that she's one of the most powerful, intelligent, and cunning people in Gensokyo and probably knows how to solve every incident but she'd rather dick around and tease Youmu then actually do anything.
