They are all just a bunch of sprites. Who gives a crap.

final spark

shakey shakey shakey

>>7164776
Too many. Most of them are memorable in bad thing. Let's see, Ichirin boss opener, Hourai Jewel, Flowery Soul, Scarlet Meister, Nitori midboss card. Those are the "distinguished" one from every game.

>>7164780
>I don't play the games.

Utsuho's last card landed right when the song was on its end/beginning (they're the same) so it kind of felt orgasmically fitting.

If anything I'd say either that one or Yukari's 2nd to last spellcard.

Yuyuko's last spell card, was the first Touhou game I 1cc'd, and while I was still fairly bad at it, it felt amazing to beat that card.

I think I actually wept the first time I saw spellcard 222.

For me, Kanako's Mountain of Faith was my most memorable card. I got to that card with four lives left, and bomb spammed during my first life, wondered why the hell she wasn't even taking damage then proceeded to lose all my lives to the flowery rainbow.

Who else shat their pants the first time they saw Missing Power Suika in DS?

Shinki's fight in MS is pretty easy, but for some reason it's very fun and all of her attacks are instantly recognizable for me.

Byakuren's Devil's Recitation is awesome.

Satori's border of particle and wave, because it made me feel physically nauseous the first time I saw it.

Either Yuyuko's last spell or Remi's Scarlet Gensokyo for me.

"Cirno's arcanum: Roaring Ice God" for me.

always try it hoping for the extra life, but it never works out

>>7164857
That also the touhou 5's spellcard too. She was the creator of makai, I forgot what her name was.

Scarlet Meister.

Scarlet Gensokyo and Resurrection Butterfly -80% Reflowering.

Nitori's last spellcard, monster cucumber.
My first Touhou game, there began my hate for any kind of motherfucking laser.

Too many, I'll list one per Windows game.

>th06
Flandre's Maze of Love. I love the way you have to beat it, and how perfect it is for Marisa speed. Fuck doing it with Reimu though.

>th07
This game has many but I'd go with Ran's Illusion God. It's just beautiful.

>th08
Fujiyama Volcano is my most memorable spell for all the wrong reasons.

>th10
Kanako's Mountain of Faith/Virtue of Wind God. The spell itself is pretty easy but awesome to look at.

>th11
Nuclear Fusion. I wanted to pick a Koishi spell but the first time facing Utsuho with that awesome music and nuclear spells was one of the most memorable moments I've ever had in a video game.

>th12
Pic related.

I don't know about memorable, but Marisa's rainbow colored stars always make me really happy for some reason.

>>7164855

Shinki is basically my favorite boss fight as well.

Icicle Fall: easy.

That part on the rusted dragon where the music changes and then it starts spewing bullets wider and wider followed by all of those blue fast bullets and it feels so perfectly intense.

Not choosing anything from segments 6-8 because they're too good to compare.

>>7165165

can I be a touhou too guys

I don't know if I would any memorable since I end up seeing them so many times.. even now the only time I go "alright here it comes!" is with Satori's wave of particle card. maybe shou's windmill card too.

Well, shit, I have too many to list.

But Bo-MOTHERFUCKING-LaD gets a special mention. Why? Because, if done right, it's one of the few spellcards where you actually do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING and just enjoy looking at the screen and listening to the theme.

>>7165203
Also, one of the few spellcards where the danmaku IS the background art. Near the end you can't even see anything but BULLETS, BULLETS EVERYWHERE anymore.

kanako

>>7165203

I love that spellcard, it is like this, but with more bullets and more seizures.

>>7165240
And more safespots.

Scarlet Weather Rhapsody of All Humankind

>>7165203
You mean if done wrong.

>>7164810
>Let's see, Ichirin boss opener, Hourai Jewel, Flowery Soul, Scarlet Meister, Nitori midboss card. Those are the "distinguished" one from every game.

I think Vajra is the more memorable one from UFO. Also fun as hell.

The brofist spellcards in UFO. I was like "wtf" the whole time when I first saw it and bombed my way through... unsuccessfully.

Mountain of Faith -Easy-
The day ZUN trolled all Easy modo players

>>7165335
fuck I remember trying to run away from the sideway fists, only to fail miserably.

>>7165333

How so? Never played easy modo.

>>7165496

From what I hear that card is harder on Easy mode than in Normal. I wouldn't know since I never played that card on Easy.

>>7164776
Hey, I made that image. Cool.

Anyways, I'd have to say this one. Not the most difficult, but easily the most memorable.

>>7165496
Slower bullets, denser bullets, just see for yourself
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKRMW-RWUlc

>>7165590

Looking at that I'd feel more confident with the easy mode one actually. I remember trapping myself accidentally and deathbombing like a mofo trying to beat that card on Normal. Then again I wouldn't know unless I actually experienced it.

>>7164857
This and what it was based on would be my top choice.. Also like most of Yuyuko's, and Koishi's survival.

Youmu's opening noncard. More specifically, the first part of it, with the walls of teal/yellow and then the orange/green.

You face it three times (though the stage 6 version seems a bit easier) and I seriously can almost never manage to beat it reliably.

>>7165629

Patchouli has cards like that, as in crossing bullets horizontally. They are the same color too IIRC.

>>7165629
well you can do the redirecting thing the first two times, but I agree it's a bitch.

>>7165629
It would be a lot better with different bullets. The hitboxes on those are really unforgiving.

>>7164934
>Maze of Love is perfect for Marisa speed
I always thought it was the exact opposite. Reimu can get around it easy, but Marisa is too fast. You have to start/stop the whole way.

>>7165728
I'm sure it depends on what radius you traverse it at.

>>7165728
I've never managed to keep up with Reimu. Ended up grazing the card with her, couldn't capture it otherwise.

I like a lot of the Double Spoiler spellcards, but the more memorable one is 6-8. Here, I took a quick screencap.

>>7165751
But 9-7 was obviously the most memorable for Aya.

>PCB
Good: Border of Life and Death
Bad: Fazioli Dark Performance

>IN
Good: Phoenix Tail, I can't explain why, but this card really struck me as memorable. Heaven Spider's Web is a close second.
Bad: What else? Apollo 13. Runner ups are Hourai Elixir for being so goddamn long and Midnight for crazy ass cross patterns.

>StB
Good: Forbidden Fruit or Wave and Particle.
Bad: Lunar Ilmenite.

>MoF
Good: Frog Hunting. Flying towards the center!
Bad: Miracle of Otensui, I am terribad at this card and always have to bomb.

>SA
Good: Mega Flare, this card feels so damn good to play against. Aaaahhhh! the entire time!
Bad: Zombie Fairy of course.

>UFO
Good: I dunno, Dragging Anchor.
Bad: Phantom Ship Harbor, because it lags my shitty comp.

Hisouten/soku
Good: Second Pandemonium.
Bad: Sickle of Sorting the Dead. Slowing down horizontal movement before an unblockable, ungrazeable attack? Bullshit.

>>7165760
That spellcard was surprisingly easy though.

>>7165766
>Fazioli Dark Performance
Oh god, I have never captured that.
I'll take Merlin any day over that thing.

Lazor of Marisa's Last SC - TH08
The first time I encountered it, wut that's a whole screen, imposiburu!!

Suwako's final spell card. I remember it because of how much I hate it. Doin' fine, doin' fine, end of boss I just spam bombs and hope I survive.

>>7165775

Here's one I'd describe as memorable for myself. It seems pretty much impossible even to silver medal. God dammit ZUN why do you put medals in the game if some of them aren't even possible to get?

>>7165779
Heh, I posted that screen shot a little while ago. Why did you save it instead of just taking your own?

>>7165791
...because it's a lot easier to save it instead of taking my own?

>>7165786
Don't remember those firing any fireballs. There's a margin of time to use your freezes which makes the card really easy. But gold is flat-out impossible.

>>7165801

I can't silver medal it because I can't get any freeze charge at all when I can't even hit her because she's below me. It doesn't help that I plan to gold medal the whole game on all difficulties. If I had to name another memorable spellcard it would be that Fairy Overdrive one. It's not even impossible, yet it's always the card that gets me and finishes me off. I still remember the tackle, the horrifying fairy tackle.

>>7165793

>I don't have blazing star unlocked and now im trying to hide that fact

>>7165813
I take it you haven't spent much time in STG threads?

>>7165817

to be honest, I just felt like shitposting for some reason. I know he has all of the IN spellcards captured. including Fantasy Haven

>>7165820
>to be honest, I just felt like shitposting for some reason

It's okay, we all get urges like that once in a while.

>>7165793
Then here, have a screenshot featuring slightly less spark in exchange for more danmaku. It was a lot of fun trying to hit the Home key without dying.

StB, 10-8.
Not hard, but totally wasn't expecting it.

The reason why azns are less ashamed of their waifu collections than in the west is because parents like it when their son shows an interest in girls-having a son with 200 pictures of hatsune miku his bedroom, to the parents, just means he's got women on his mind and will likely end up producing grandchildren once his life reaches that point lol where he starts socializing with women openly and dating.

Mokou's death of honest man.
First time I got that far in her extra, it went:
>lots of bullets
>they move a bit, not too hard
>WHY THE FUCK is she firing a laser
>avoided, thank god
>again, again, again
I hate Mokou

I will always remember this one.

Hardest spellcard capture in all of Touhou.

>>7166724
that's one crazy way to capture that card

Yuyuko's last spell card

there should be more cards like that at the end of the games

>>7166724
Holy shit.

>>7166724
That's how I tried it until 500 photos in I find out there is an easier way to capture it. I never did get more than 3 photos like that, though.

Picture unrelated, but it was a no horizontal movement capture.

>>7166724
WHAT

Thats not even how you do it.. thats just..
THERES A MUCH EASIER WAY TO CAPTURE THAT ONE.

Good job to him, however.

>>7165333
>>7165590
I usually play Mountain of Faith on normal, Aya rapes me.
I tried easy modo once, no problem at all, until I reached Mountain of Faith, lost 6 lives and 4 bombs.
