Touhou: Fantastic Danmaku Festival Part II | Lunatic No-Bomb No-Border-Break 1cc, Reimu 【東方幕華祭 春雪篇】

An LNBNBB run of FDF2 done just in time for FDF3's release on Tuesday.

I was never too fond of FDF2. I’ve always thought it was the most overrated Touhou STG fangame, since most of its praise seems to come from visuals and pattern aesthetics rather than gameplay mechanics or pattern feel. The game feels like the ultimate slogfest with the slow pacing, even more than games like Hollow Song of Birds and Treasure Castle Labyrinth lol.I still think FDF2 is a well-made game, it’s just not for me, and I vastly prefer FDF1 (especially pre-nerf). With that being said, I really like the Alice and Yuyuko boss fights, and having lenient grazing is also pretty nice. It's very satisfying to extend borders while hearing that crunchy graze sound.

The danmaku in this game is pretty easy; there are really only three difficult sections: Lily's penultimate spell, the orange laser stage section right before Ran in stage 5, and Yuyuko's final attack. The second death on Yuyuko final was intentional. I noticed my border was about to activate, so I suicided for a screen clear just so I can reduce the chances of breaking the border right after activation. I'm not about to throw away a run on the final attack due a dumb border-break. Speaking of border-breaks, I'm gonna be really pissed if there's an accidental break somewhere in this run that I didn't notice...

losing lnnn by dying three times to that one lily attack is epic
