Aww man, the slowest ghost actually shows up? I'm sad that this LP didn't get far enough for that, but I totally understand having priorities above playing games for the internet. Hopefully the translation project continues or somebody picks up the LP. (Or I learn to read Japanese but that's pretty unlikely too.)

Apparently Sanbondo will be releasing the trial version of FMW4 next Reitaisai (5/10). :toot:

The title is probably going to be 幻想少女大戦花, which is going to be kind of awkward in english since the english title of Touhou 9 is Phantasmagoria of Flower View. Is it gonna be FMW Po?

Actually I guess I'd go for maximum in-joke and name it FMW F(lower). And hey, it's the japanese name too!

Huh, I wonder what they're going to do with the plot? Yuka didn't vanish for a few years in this timeline, so instead of "What the hell is up with all the flowers and ghosts?" won't the default assumption be "Goddamnit Yukari!"

I'm surprised no one's commenting on the fact that Marisa is suddenly in a different game. I know it took me off guard the first time I played this. Although I guess it's just expected that FMW will be filled with foreshadowing future plot points, now that Sanae's role has been fulfilled.

Clearly this is so that Marisa can recruit an oni and an incredibly annoying to fight against raven of her own.

A stage 4 boss that's way higher level than she is right now, and gets auto-Alert every turn. Blitz and I discussed this: Marisa would get totally wrecked by Satori if she tried to fight her right now.

Reimu would win though.

Clearly what she needs to do is run in with a super to eat the Alert and then think really hard about that one time she got clipped by icicle fall [easy].

Yes she is, so why didn't you vote for her?

Anyway, these chapters clearly demonstrate that the plot of PCB is kind of boring compared to SA and UFO, or at least that the writers feel like they can do more with those.

The plot of SA hasn't started. Sanae hasn't even had the brilliant idea that set SA off yet. She hasn't even met the character that gives her the idea.

Incidentally the framing of this chapter would have worked a lot better back in FMW1, where Reimu was legitimately the only good unit in the army. Hell, it even could have worked in FMW2, when the group was mostly composed of small fry.

But here? Oh no, Reimu went down. Whatever will Yuyuko, Yukari, and Ran do. :geno:

Then again they managed to work in a Super Dangerous Prototype and the accompanying scenes into the Touhou setting so points for that.

Well, you have to have a human solve the incident, and Yomu only half counts, Sanae is still learning how to do it, and Hijari doesn't count as human anymore.

I was going to say you had Meiling's portrait for one of Marisa's lines, but it's been fixed now.

Also, holy poo poo Marisa, UPGRADE GET. Also, I see that they've chosen to ignore the hints that Marisa's planning on becoming a yokai magician. Live fast, die young, leave a good looking corpse.
