鏈縁霊烈傳 ～ Reactivate Majestical Imperial - Unreal Mode 1cc

From the same guy again that makes those April Fools PC-98 Touhou remake videos.

Reactivate Majestical Imperial is the third game in JynX's Len'en Series.
It seems better designed and balanced than the previous two games but stage design is still bad.

Unreal is the highest difficulty in the game.
The third game kept the added new mechanics of the last game and introduces some more new ones.

You still have the flash bombs that you can charge by grazing bullets and filling the meter on the left. It's pretty much a 1 second mini-bomb or shield that does no damage and is pretty situational in it's usefulness as it's really short and only clears a few bullets. The flash bomb is also different for all characters.

The new mechanic is the new party system. You can control two characters but there are some quirks to it, as you can only change character by dying, bombing or using a flash bomb. While the main character is being controlled, the secondary will follow you below the screen and pick up power items, point items and spirits.

Making the back character pick up power items is very important in stage 1 to quickly get both characters to max power.
Enemies also drop spirits when you kill them and only the back character can pick these up. After picking up a certain amount you get a special ability for a few seconds that depends on the character and team.
For this team it makes both characters shoot at the same time and getting hit will release an autobomb.

Apart from different spirit abilities, all characters also seem to have passive abilities when in the back. For this team Sukune will draw spirits towards her and Adagumo will create a screen-clear cancel that also does damage when you fill up the flash bomb gauge.
I abuse these abilities a ton in this run. The key to survival in this game is clever usage of the flash bomb and special abilities as it doesn't penalize you for using them and you can keep reusing them to manipulate patterns so you can get past them.

The final boss is a bit different from everything else in the game. All the spirits you collected in the game will act as a time limit for beating the boss. You have infinite lives but dying and bombing will take a big chunk of spirit so you don't want to do that. The boss is also completely immune to bombs.
I'm sure the time limit would be a lot stricter if I wasn't abusing Sukune's ability to draw in spirits so much.

Getting to full power and picking up a 1-up gives you a screen-clear as well.
Also in stage 4 you fight one of the other teams depending on your current team.

You unlock Absurdly Extra by 1cc'ing Unreal and it's beyond retarded and I'm pretty sure completely impossible.

There doesn't seem to be much translated for this game in contrast to the first game but I'll link the page anyway:
