My brain hurts after 10 seconds of watching. Good effort though.

I've sent him a message telling him to either put up disclaimers saying it's tool-assisted or to remove the video entirely. Many people seem to think the run was done by a real person.

I definitely like the original a lot better than every remix of it I've heard... "why why why why don't I miss you a lot, forever?"

someone is out there who will like you. take off your mask so they can find you faster. I support the new Nekketsu Kouha Kunio-kun.

Don't mind me asking, but WTF is with the music (?) in the backround?

Super Mario 64 TASes and stuff.

It's "Marisa Stole the Precious Thing", the single from IOSYS's Touhou 7 remix album. Here is a flash animation promo video featuring the single. The song itself is about Alice Margatroid (3rd stage boss) falling in love with Marisa (one of the playable characters) and is a remix of Alice's boss music from Touhou 7. They're rival magicians who both live in the Forest of Magic so the fans created a tsundere relationship between them.

Just now I stopped liking the song. Why do fans (mainly fans of anime) have to be so weird? Can't they just be fans without making fan fiction about awkward love dramas? EDIT: I checked what 'perfect cherry blossom' meant, so I checked it and it's a bullet hell shoot-'em-up! Which is awesome. It still doesn't de-creepify that 'Alice <3 Marisa' song though.

The Touhou 8 single is about how one character's bullets look like suppositories, if that helps.

IOSYS does serious remixes too (like this one, also from Touhou 7, and this one from Touhou 9.5) too, it's just their hyper-energetic comedy ones that are famous.. Anyway the series is great, not just the music. If you like bullet hell shooters, I really incredibly cannot reccomend higher than this series, especially 7 (Perfect Cherry Blossom), 10 (Mountain of Faith), and 9.5 (Shoot the Bullet).

Actually, I think the "serious" ones try to look serious so hard they become ridiculous instead, on many levels at once. Most fan-made Touhou stuff (almost all the manga, for instance) is subject to that, too. This happens really often when you try to make an inherently fun thing, well, less fun — it loses its charm, at best. On that note, my favorite inofficial Touhou manga is probably this. Had tons of fun reading it.

I haven't played any of them (bullet hell shooters), I'm mostly interested in the nice-looking patterns. :)

:D What do you want, almost all the Touhou characters are young girls! Sex was inevitable. :) (Flawed logic, I know.) It's all still really funny though, and some of the games' principles were referenced to in sexual context (one could say it was also inevitable due to rule 34).

Lots of them there. For example, Touhou 9.5: Shoot the Bullet.
