Touhou 东方夏夜祭 ～ Shining Shooting Star || Lunatic PERFECT (LNNNFS, Marisa)

Oh man, my first LNN(N) in Touhou ever! It feels so good man, still can't believe what just happened.
Yeah, this is real. Lunatic Perfect run, No Miss, No Bomb, No Border Break, and even No Red Borders which are known for giving extra shot power when active. And ofc - Full Borders = Full Spellcard.
What is the best is it was all done with the shittiest shot type you could choose for this game - Marisa.
Damn, freaking, Marisa. She is even weaker than Reimu there. No homing shots, very narrow shot when focused, and even then she is no stronger than Reimu. And she can't speedkill Kage...
I will be wondering for long how da heck it was possible with her. Getting Full Borders at every stage is painful enough, not to say getting that without bombing at all. Man, this was painful so much. And rewarding, since I've proven it's possible even with the worst character ever.
---
So... Let's talk about my experience with SSS stages and bosses:
- The first stage was restarted a bunch of times - all due to the borders system. If you want to get full borders at the end, you need an active one at the midboss spell, and one completed already.
-- The best thing about the boss is that it's easy until the last spell. LastSpell (LS) is too hard for this boss tier. Ami, pls why... Man, who created it...
- Second stage isn't special really. Maybe just some delayed shotdowns. Do it like me, and you're gonna be fine.
-- Rakuki isn't the easiest for sure. Pretty much dynamic, and spells can easily cheapshot you. If you're good at micrododging you'll be fine.
- 3rd stage was very strict in terms of borders. Getting some more juice from the previous one was necessary to reach the borders' goal. I think it's possible to do it without extra juice, but then I couldn't get three blue borders before the midboss.
-- We get Seiryuu, another boss, this time it was rather smooth. Still it involved a bunch of micro stuff, yet it was slow enough to react properly. No problems at all.
- Fourth stage is my favorite so far, probably one I was confident about the most (ofc if you get through the opening. It killed 2 runs of mine...). Rather demanding, I could say, laser stage, but as said, it becomes easier with time. So as for me it was rather easy.
-- Kage gives Marisa probably the easiest spellcards. What doesn't mean it's gonna be a piece of cake. On nons Marisa has to struggle through them for very long. Still wondering if that's the bug or something. With enough practice it's a sure win.
- 5th stage is the most cancerous stage in the whole clear. Man, how much was I stressed on it. Freaking fairies before the midboss and stars, midboss spellcard, and then the worst - fairies trains coming from all sides and walling you constantly... The easiest way to ruin your like 5 runs. Thankfully made it through this time. (pls change this attack, it's too hard Jesus Christ)
-- Rakukun fight is somehow a consistent fight. It involves going through the attacks via strats. Here is one tactic, there another one. It just goes by it. Well, except for the last three attacks (and last spellcard). You get a lot of micro doing bullsh.. and you have no other way than just dodge it. It's still routable anyway. I wasn't worrying about it - just beaten it.
- Last stage is more like "JUST DON'T HIT DAT DAMN BULLETS BRO". Man, I was so stressed on it since I performed very well since. Laserdrop part and finishing shooting stars, oh my goodness. No more, I hate them so much.
-- Tensei's attack overall are very uncomfortable. Every nonspell has its own catch, and they are barely routable. Spellcards very demanding.
For example the first one, caught me several times during practice. The third spellcard being a classic LoLK raindrop, just with aimed stuff going just (nearly) straight down.
Last spellcard before TLB also was very strict, especially the blue part. Try to get consistent there, I dare you.
-- TLB TIIIIME! And while the first spellcard isn't so frightening (still I has bad enough RNG I was about to fail run there), the second and the third were.
The second "wish" was a nightmare. I don't complain about Red, Blue or Purple waves. Yellow waves, was the reason behind most of deaths. Thanks to it I lost once a precious LNNN.
On the third and the last "wish" I had likely 150 BPM. Oh man, how stressful it was, when you reach that one card that is the decisive one, and feel it can WALL YOU ON EVERY FREAKIN SECOND. For the God sake thanks that I knew how to deal with that, otherwise I would regret it so much I failed it here. It's routable most of the time. - Just when green or red wave start to fill the gap between blue bullets, switch to another lane, usually to one on the right - it usually works.
---
I think we're not gonna stop just on one LNN(N), right? I'll be continuing with that, trying to beat another game - official or fangame - perfectly.

[@explosivemodesonicmauricet1597]

The patterns.. I cant.. *so beautiful*

[@Ramash440]

He's done it, the madman. I seriously hope this wasn't done on stream because if so, I just missed Ninja history in the making, but either way, congrats!

[@CreepyNinja]

Don't worry, maybe unfortunately yet I haven't been streaming this run, rather doing it off-screen. Thanks!

[@monument-cafe]

Well done!

[@clsxalghazanth3757]

How do you run this game ?

[@lastsin3171]

Wtf happened while I am under retirement from Bullet Hell games lol. A Perfect SSS Marisa 1cc Lunatic Run? Wot. Really? Are you- ok. Well then. And I'm still struggling with PCB 1cc Hard too. Well, I just clutched win on a whim for that matter but still, Wow. Ok. As usual I guess of you lol.

[@adi8642]

really creepy this gameplay ._.

[@stamossarris7969]

creepy what is your opinion on this particular game as a touhou game how good is it?

[@ArceusShaymin]

Now just gotta do Extra All Spells Captured Marisa. Kappa ;3

[@user-wd7dh3bs3o]

Since Marisa Extra perfect is 100% impossible due to her shot power bug on Rika's TLB, people can only go for no miss + full spell capture instead 🤔

[@ArceusShaymin]

That was the joke. Hence, "Kappa".

[@CreepyNinja]

Meh, if you place your shots well it's 100% possible. One person did Extra Perfect with every character, including Marisa.

[@krystal69420]

Any tips to win easy mode?

[@siheonseong5920]

??????

[@jadebayoba7073]

BTW, Why the Reimu's Hitbox its like, the most Broken hitbox i ever see?

[@williewillus]

all the hitboxes in this game are very small

[@Tresman101]

You should give the ultra patch a shot. www.mediafire.com/file/ntbqajp5atcwrus/Touhou_Shining_Shooting_Star_Ultra%2BAEX_Patch.zip
