Shou is highly reminescent of Ran, though, with her dedication and religious card-theme and general posture, and I can very well foresee a Ran/Chen dynamic in doujins with Shou/Nazrin, given they pretty much are in a familial master/pupil relationship.

as far as gameplay goes, all of the games fall into the same genre sure, but the mechanics definitely make them varied. it's why some people like some of the games way more than the others.

Gee, I feel like I've travelled back in time to when Mountain of Faith was released, or perhaps Subterranean Animism. It doesn't really matter which because at the time both were being put down for their 'mediocre music' or and 'unoriginal bullet patterns', in MoF's case the complete change in bomb and power systems annoyed the hell out of everyone.

But you know what, now both games are loved for their music and certain boss fights and people accept their quirky features as part of each new game trying something different.

UFO isn't any different. Everyone will eventually come to love some of the themes and the characters will gain more depth over time as we get a better feel for the kind of personality they have. Next game people will be looking back at UFO and comparing how it was much better then TH13. God, I remember all the faggots complaining about Utsuho, now she's a pretty popular character.

I beat UFO on the first day it came out and I can't even remember any of the music from it bar maybe Nazrin's theme / Stage 2. I think it's a disappointment, personally, and don't really feel the urge to go back to it. Thankfully, 12.3 really offsets the mediocrity.

Best SA theme was the Bridge People No Longer Crossed (stage 2).

UFO has good music in the last stages and I like that he finally put in his heartbeats. Nazrin's isn't bad either, but sadly niconico meme versions always come to my mind when I hear it.

The music didn't wow me at first, but it's definitely growing on me like the rest of the games. I found myself humming A Tiny, Tiny, Clever Commander a few times, not to the point of Native Faith or Phantom Ensemble, but it's rising. I wouldn't be surprised if at least one track from UFO makes my top 10 or top 15.

I have to say, Cosmic Mind is becoming one of my most favorite boss themes. I especially like the change of pace midway through the song; brings a nice emotional aspect to it.

>> No.3169354

I liked both stage 1 themes. The piano intro to the first stage kinda made me go, "Shit is getting REAL. This is gonna be awesome," while Nazrin's theme really did have that sort of "mice" feel.
Stage 2 gives me bad memories, so I can't really appreciate it that much. Fuck you Kogasa and your gigantic balls of death.
Not much on stage 3, but on Ichirin's theme, well, it starts off really fun as I realize that I'm going to be dodging PUNCHES from the angriest looking cloud I've ever seen.
4: Like most of his other stage 4 themes, it goes perfectly with the stage, including the little survival mini-boss segment. Captain Murasa's theme reminds me of a ship getting tossed about in a storm. Can't say much about stage 5 and on; I suck too much to get there regularly.
