Ghostly Field Club - Track 10: A Maiden's Illusionary Funeral ~ Necro-Fantasy

[@mekannatarry1929]

This is basically old school videogame soundtracks except evolved into a sense of extreme and straight up awesome.

[@GOLDENOZZY]

damn you just came up and made us all feel old like that.

[@Veryfreshveryflourish24]

You know ran is such an overlooked character. Like sure when she is out of shikigami possession he power level is around that of extremely powerful youkai yet people forget that ZUN has stated that when she is under Shikigami posession she reaches the same power level as her master not to mention that her skills on things like calculating and stuff even at time exceed Yukari as she is only person who has managed to measure the lenght of Sanzu river without crossing it and for such powerful youkai she is still considered somewhat young. Ofc there are characters like Okina or Hecatia that wipe the floor with everyone else, but i just wanted to remind people that Ran is alot more than spinning ball of fluff

[@StarLotus]

*_So true!!_*

Ran's last spell *shudder*, I remember , I was about to beat her when her explosion took too long and we both went Pichu~n.

[@probablycallum8371]

+Alan Montes Glad that that didn't just happen to me. Next time around i just bomb spammed at the end. Cheap i know but i was sick of her spellcards and wanted to move onto imperishable night (wasn't good enough for yukari then)

Robbed. :C

[@perez_rales]

That happenes once with me. But in my case it was with Flandre :v

[@yuithekitsuneko]

it took me hundereds of tries to beat Ran yet the first time i got to her last spell i beat it; i know more how you feel with Suwako T^T

[@GrahamChapman]

I always kinda imagined the "Necro" themes to represent the Yakumos, their power and influence, while "Night Falls ~ Moring Star" is Yukari's proper theme... In a way, I also kinda feel it's appropriate that Ran has no personal theme/leitmotif since she, being a shikigami, is ultimately just an extention of Yukari's own power and influence.

[@sleeplessnarcolept6541]

NOt to shoot you down, but then why does CHen have one? SHe is a shikigami of a shikigami

[@unkowntheadmin8692]

@ShadowLoli R00mia woah wtf

[@SukaNekoto]

@ShadowLoli R00mia Um... what kind of weird comparison fallacy is this? lol Just look at the plot to Touhou 7 and you'd know it's referring to a deadly dream, not whatever your weird shipping fanfic is all about.

[@SukaNekoto]

@ShadowLoli R00mia Yeah, that's called a joke lol And the ship isn't canon.

[@SukaNekoto]

@ShadowLoli R00mia I think you're mixing up fanon and canon too easily.

[@fellzayel1305]

I can’t help but imagine Ran absolutely *losing it* on the trumpet.

[@Ninjaslife437]

Im picturing Ran taking the low notes and Yukari taking the high notes as the two of their voices combine into a duet of beauty.

[@aronnecroman]

I like the idea of Necrofantasia is a theme for the Yakumo's while each of them have their own themes like Yukari with Night Fall, and Chen with Diao Ye Zong. And i know she's not Yakumo, but what if she's still in her training process? Now i wonder what would Ran theme sounds like if that the case. Edit : I scroll down and i see someone comment the same thing 4 years ago LMAO

[@himejoon8005]

Imo Ran's personal theme would be Charming Domination.

[@yejianyue]

I replied to the other comment and then scroll down to see yours as well; so I'm gonna copy paste my reply lol I think Charming Domination has often been associated with Ran. I interpret the theme as ominous, mechanical, and rapid, representing Ran, the most prominent shikigami of Yukari, known for her intellectual ability comparable to that of a computer. It also have the melodious section that correspond to her identity as a kitsune youkai, one of the well known, if not the most well known traditional youkai with long history.

[@Nier2J]

Chen's theme actually goes very well with Ran or Yukari's theme. A good exemple of that is the 4th stage of concealed the conclusion. Chen's theme shares similarities with Ran and Yukari's theme, but the leimotiv isn't present in her theme, maybe because she still isn't a Yakumo.

[@LordFloofTM]

That moment when you realize Yukari's theme is an arrangement of Ran's and not the other way around

[@anonymousgt6566]

I congratulate this song cause': the piano gives the terrifying mood and the part of the original song give the touch, of course the trumpets and the drum is like if there was no tomorrow. Also the part after the main part is so intense, like something is preparing for and then the main part mixed with the actual part, and then the main part come with everything; that's the moment you realize both parts make soo much sense together, then the first part come with violins and the piano like ultra emotional, then the drums comes and the piano so crazy, and finally: it is repeated

[@lukasi6688]

I love this one more than her original theme and the original Necrofantasia. It's much more beautiful here. The original Necrofantasy is all about Eargasm and Order, while Necrofansia is Eargasm and Chaos. This one is much more well-composed IMO. It would have beaten the remixed Necrofantasia already if the latter didn't really have such nice additions.

[@AlucardElite]

In Stage 6 of my fangame, you fight Chen Ran, and Yukari. I SERIOUSLY considered using this instead of the original stage theme. What was the original stage theme? Eternal Shrine Maiden.

[@nashitamaniran5867]

Oh this sounds so nice. *a few seconds later* Oh, goosebumps.

[@spaghettiking7312]

Yes! I love Ran's theme even more than Yukari's! This feels so spiralling and infinite! I believe Ran can be even greater than Yukari if she succeeds her!

[@neutralspace-ishguy]

this is some masterpiece music right here

a maiden's illusionary funeral along with yukari's theme is just stuck in my head. and i cant do anything about it

[@venndiagram6776]

Shit! This is better than the original!!

[@prizmastarz742]

FREAKING AGREE!!

[@DuskPhoenixZero]

The original wasn't bad per se, but it was completely overshadowed by the amazing theme that is Necrofantasia. This arrange, however, is very atmospheric and definitely puts even some Necrofantasia arranges to shame. Though, there's still many more Necrofantasia arranges, due to the original theme's popularity.

[@RadiantAeon]

James Petruska well I mean every arrange of Necrofantasia is an arrange of Necro-fantasy! (Technically)

[@Korogunso8]

James Petruska actually I mean I guess to each there own but Necro-Fantasy is a much better theme. It has much better construction and more buildup especially with the opening which is the best tune in both themes. Necrofantasia is just... sloppy at points but I guess it's pretty nice. The version in magical Astronomy is amazing though, it sounds more like it's own thing.

[@abarette_]

The build-up here is definitely better, yeah

[@92web34]

eargasm!

[@prizmastarz742]

i love this more than the original one (in my opinion though)

[@randomstuff1071]

It sounds nice! *1 minute later* OH SHI-

[@SHinierthennyourforehead]

Is it just me , or why does it feel like this song perfectly captures the strength of Ran and the mystery surronding her. Ran is just an shikigami , we do not know her real name as the name `Ran` is made by Yukari . We do not know her strength or what she can do as she's never showed her true strength ( just like nearly every strong touhou character) , I also kinda feel like she was inspired by the Japanese myth called the ` nine tailed fox ` but i dont really know tbh

[@AlucardElite]

This is better than the entire OST of Perfect Cherry Blossom. That's saying a lot.

[@AlucardElite]

I lied. It's better than Eternal Shrine Maiden.

[@medicineman5344]

I find funny how accepted is that the "Necrofantasia" motif is Yukari's theme in this song when in reality Necrofantasia came AFTER Necrofantasy.
