The reason "Boundary of Life and Death" was so difficult near the end is because once you pass 30 seconds left on the timer, the game initiates a sped-up version of the card's final phase because it assumes you're attempting to time it out. Defeat it quickly enough and it won't have that extra speed, making it a good bit more tolerable to complete.

[@thisisanoldchannel-k4h]

Yukari's theme necrofantasia has always been one of my favorite touhou songs. She's such a cool yokai. She sleeps all day and enjoys life. She's can manipulate boundaries, she's well informed with a superhuman intellect and she's older than Gensokyo itself. She is at least 1200. We can safely say that Yukari is one of the wisest and most mysterious yokai.

[@tanibuchi4413]

Phantasm-Level boss, and she was half-awake the entire time. So what would her "Full" power's level even look like? Greater than the entire Lunar army if used seriously with a hint of rage?

[@MegamanOmega184]

Technically she did lose to the lunar army... but it's up in the air as to weather she lost on purpose thinking long term. The way I see it though, she has enough power that she was one of the three people that created Gensokyo in the first place if that can give you some insight to what she can do if she puts her mind to it.

[@fluffy_cheese7478]

I think they weren’t really waging that much of a war and wanted to thin out the population of unwise yokai

[@IdiotNo]

@@MegamanOmega184 But then she lost to a Lunar rope in SSiB ;_;

[@GrahamChapman]

@@IdiotNo You do realize she "lost" there because her "loss" was a part of her plan, right? Yeah, sure, that rope really did bind her, and the Lunarians shouldn't ever be underestimated because they really are unfairly powerful... but Yukari has this penchant for crafting strategies in which her "losing" gets her exactly what she wants anyway. (In the case of Bougetsushou and SSiB: Remilia's invasion of the Moon was a distraction, as was Yukari's invasion of the Moon; Yukari losing to the Lunarians served to make them drop their guards so that Yuyuko's infiltration of the Moon would be successful... then she used the Lunarian sake that Yuyuko stole to emotionally scar Eirin for life.)

[@Ilovrdonuts]

@@GrahamChapman Btw Yukari controls borders too, not only physical but conceptual too, for example in a second she can change the entire rules of danmaku fighting to make it lethal to you, or kill you all of a sudden. She is basically god, because anything with distinct twin effect, can be controlled by Yukari. She is way too GOATED.

"Did you store a lot of honey before hibernation, or something?" "Human." "So." I don't quite get this piece of dialogue.

[@fusrosandvich3738]

I think that was Yukari's way of saying "Are you actually serious right now?" and Marisa is just backtracking verbally.

[@trannguyenanhthu2994]

implying that instead of honey, yukari stores "human" for hibernation she's a youkai after all -3-

[@NoponSage]

"そう" seems to have mistranslated into "so." It should be "I see" or "right."

[@am4484]

it was supposed to be awkward. Marisa has a habit of making things awkward.

she stores humans before hibernation, no honey. that's what yukari says.

There is a safespot for boundary of life and death if my suspicions of Yukari moving above you is right

[@hawaiidkw1]

Yowza. I know the fandom tends to go a bit overboard...but at least I can _buy_ Cirno as a loudmouth idiot or Kaguya as a shiftless parasite. There's absolutely nothing in Yukari's mannerisms or dialogue that skew even remotely close to "silver-tongued violent self-righteous power abusing sociopath dirtbag" to me. If anything, she sounds _confused_. Can't really fault her for being lazy, either, given that powerful Gensokyites throwing their weight around is what causes these crazy "incidents" incidents. If I were in her position, hell yeah I'd rather sleep all day, then put on a pot of tea before catching a sakura viewing. Oh, and she's a killer boss, but no more than any of the other Touhou extra stage bosses I've seen.

[@MegamanOmega184]

Well actually yes and no. While yes a power abusing sociopath is an extreme flanderization of Yukari in general she is definitely a silver-tongued schemer to a certain degree, however that did not come from this game. Keep in mind she appeared again in everyone's storyline in Touhou 7.5 and in there more often than not she would purposely tease and confuse the others solely to aggravate them. Though to be honest I don't really see many people treat Yukari as a power abuser even in darker doujin work really just varying degrees of playfully lazy. But then again just because it's not common doesn't mean it doesn't happen. Also people don't tend to bring up her status as a killer boss so much because of how difficult she is in game. While that is a point considering she is the only Phantasm boss in the entire series. It's more because of her ability and position in Gensokyo. Her gap powers are vague and limitless in power as far as fans are considered while canonically speaking she both created Gensokyo and she is the main one maintaining the border between it and the outside world so it doesn't collapse in on itself.

How do you get the Phantasm Stage? I beat the Extra Stage but I haven't gotten it

[@MegamanOmega184]

As well as beating the Extra Stage you need to have also captured at least 60 spell cards with all characters combined. You should be fairly close at this point, if memory serves I just hopped into Easy Mode for a moment to easily top myself off

[@youdonotcare]

So I have to capture every spellcard with every character? Do you have to do the Hard and Lunatic only spells? Sorry, I'm just confused

[@MegamanOmega184]

No, no. Not EVERY Spell Card, just 60 of them. And that's between four difficulties and three characters. So for example, just being able to capture all the Stage 1 spell cards as every character from Easy-Lunatic will nab you 30 spell cards.
