Flandre and I are old friends.
We went to college together.
For a while, we had something serious going.
I actually bought a proposal ring for her one day.
I never told her that, though.
One morning she was at my house and it was raining outside.
Everything looked so beautiful, peaceful, sublime.
I knew that was the time to ask the big question.
I didn't do it then for some reason.
I never did.
It wasn't long after that we started drifting apart.
She eventually found someone else.
He's a great guy, don't get me wrong.
In fact, I'm very happy for the both of them.
It's been quite a few years since they got married.
They already have two kids and one more on the way.
Time sure does fly.
Hardly a day goes by that I don't think about what could of happened had I followed through with it that early Spring morning.
Do you think she feels the same?
Well, the past is the past.
I'm married to my job now.
It feels like it has been forever since I last saw Flandre.
What I wouldn't give to hold her hand again.
And dance.
Thanks for watching.

[@Unforsin]

Watching Lavateinn reminded me of a conversation in the next game. Marisa: Then how do you guys get through that barrier? Prismrivers: We don't, we just fly over it. Marisa: Oh.

[@sakesaurus]

I'm so dumb I managed to learn this spellcard's micrododge strats before I opened a walkthrough and realised that you can just circle it. I still do it for practice though.

[@maulerfranco666]

Thank you for the kind words! I think I was far from being one of the best, but I am happy my channel has slowly and steadily gained attention throughout the years and has made some impact for other Touhou players/fans.

[@r543Blitzsonic]

Nice run, I didn't know that no focus runs were a thing, and as a guy that currently playing EoSD(Extra stage, Marisa B, Love Maze was the furthest I got, was originally a Marisa A player up to stage 5's miniboss, I do have a solution for that now but I don't look forward to dealing with Remilia/Extra Mode's spellcards as A) it was quite interesting to see this. The story in the description is sad... however at the same time it wants me to clear the extra stage even more now.

[@reidosfuscas]

Nice run! Also love how the game just left bullets after Cranberry Trap

[@vietanhnguyengia2422]

well not many ppl did so why was it sad anyway, maybe he just got busy with life

[@boraozdemir6606]

Seeing you're still alive, may I ask a question? After all these years, assuming you haven't practiced much, how much your danmaku skills has changed?

[@maulerfranco666]

I haven't played in several years, but I'm willing to bet I could still NMNB this extra stage in a few attempts, but this is a special case. I certainly would not be able to pull off any lunatic 1cc's, and I would struggle with a lot of the other extra stages.

[@jadebayoba7073]

If Touhou 6 would still have the 2 balls on the sides even on focus like Touhou 2-5:

[@kodirovsshik]

How hard this stage in terms of game difficulty levels? Is it *really* harder than hardest of lunatic? (as it apperantly supposed to be) Just wondering cuz if new and I want to beat it but kind of struggling

[@tp-5306]

Hard difficulty

[@IkaraPopsicle]

Touhou 6 but its touhou 2

[@Sumire973]

The next on the list will be, Great Fairy Wars no ice lunatic + extra run. (?

[@envyreanilarsa]

MaulerFranco, What did you use for Recording Touhou??

[@maulerfranco666]

Back in the day, I used Fraps for recording. Then I followed this super old tutorial on a particular Touhou forum that included using the software VirtualDub for joining (for some reason, Fraps would cut the video into segments) and trimming the clips as well as MeGUI for video encoding. For this video, I used OBS for recording, and then I simply uploaded the raw output. These days, if I want to do any video editing, I'll use Blender. Gotta love free and open-source software!

[@satyman08]

ah, just like SoEW

[@maiduc19961996]

[@WomanSlayer69420]

okay. One question here. just How, in the fuck did you manage to pull this off without hax?

[@maulerfranco666]

It helps to have a mechanical keyboard with either cherry-mx red or black switches (I use black). That, and lots and lots and lots of practice.

[@WomanSlayer69420]

guess I'm out of luck then...

[@ZigzagwolfSTG]

Very nice run, I remember watching a few of your extra NMNBs in the past, they were very inspiring. Also is MarisaA the best for this specific challenge?

[@russellchong6916]

Which was the hardest part in the run?

[@maulerfranco666]

Without a doubt Starbow Break and Q.E.D. I also get notably nervous during Maze of Love and various parts of ATWTBN? because, even though those parts are static, I'm prone to over correcting my movement and getting clipped.
