Wait, what? What caused that? Just her strength stat going up? I've never recruited her; I might have to now just to see that. O.o

Turns out that her eyes keep getting bigger until her head explodes after three days. Just like how mahou shoujo shows have a trope where a character dies on the third episode. Specifically Mami from Puella Magi who gets her head bit off.

Huh. That kinda sucks. I guess I could just use her for cannon fodder if I ever find her again, then.

I made it to the Canadian border!

And then I lost immediately because there were a lot of zombies there and the group was just one person: my RL brother.

Oddly enough, I started with two random characters.  Then I found a copyright free version of Octodad, then my brother.  Then Octodad died, and then *I* joined the group.  Then one of the randoms died with all the pistol ammo, the other walked off with both our rifles.  So I went from all randoms to me and my RL brother.  Then I died.  Then he reached the border and died.

Death Road to Canada

Edit: While we're talking about ridiculous characters from Death Road to Canada, I found Horse:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Horse can't attack, but moves so fast that they can literally move through a horde of zombies faster than the zombies can complete an attack.  The only way for horse to really die is if a zombie physically blocks their path, since they can't use attacks to clear the way.  Unfortunately, having a character that can't attack is a massive liability during hordes and the speed boost does nothing in a group, so Horse got everyone else in the party (and any new characters) killed early on and then proceeded to live essentially forever and grab a ridiculous amount of supplies they had no use for.

I'm pretty sure it's balancing as she's ridiculously OP. Her weapon is infinite use ranged attack and she has the high fitness to spam it; furthermore she has no cost to recruit unlike most special characters who have strong abilities.

Beat the Pizza Slime on the first try. Heck, I only took two hits, and that was when she split herself in three and the middle one popped up right under me with no warning.

Khimera: Destroy All Monster Girls.

[itisnotlogical]

I hunted Tetsucabra, and for once it didn't completely wipe out my potion supply! A relatively straightforward hunt where nothing went horrendously awry.

I also have a full set of Tetsucabra gear now, though I'm not entirely sure what the implications of that are.

- You have resistance to the extremely-common Fire element, slight resistance to the rare Dragon element, and weakness to the relatively rare water element and relatively common thunder element.
- You have the Health +20 skill, which means you'll always have +20 maximum health, even if you get killed and lose your food powers. At this early stage of the game, that is quite handy.
- You have the Defense Up (S) skill, which means your defense is equal to the sum of your armor's defense + 15.
- Unfortunately, you also have Gathering -1, which means that sometimes you'll have fewer chances to gather from gathering points. Since this shouldn't really come into play on regular hunts, remember to take your Tetsucabra gear off when you go to collect honey or whatever.

Tetsucabra is a pretty good set. It should last you through low rank.

Beat the game, despite some of the sloppiest playing ever[Before I switched to IN, I'd just lost to Ran's Tenko Illusion four times in a row, mostly due to running into her first couple non-spells]. Eirin is a fun boss. Not wimpy like Remilia or annoying like Ran, but at a nice point in between. Still, this game just doesn't feel as hard as the first couple did. Probably because I got quite good at hitting those Last Spells, which doubles or triples your effective lives if you can do it consistently. That's with no continues[I don't use continues], but its still quite tame.


Mind you, the Extra stage still isn't unlocked. I'm guessing I need to beat the game again with a team that goes up against Reimu instead of Marisa. So I guess Team Scarlet isn't out of the race yet, although I'll really miss Yukari's ability to manipulate the Border of Life and Death.

Touhou 8: Imperishable Night

Just beat the Pursuer after, from what I've heard about him, a surprisingly low amount of tries. Counterclockwise circlestrafing for the win!

It's a bit simpler than that. To avoid spoilers, you need to beat the game twice without continues.

Oh, OK. I'll still probably TRY winning with Team Scarlet, but its nice to know I have alternatives. Or I could go with the team I haven't tried, Marisa/Alice. Decisions, decisions.


A MUCH more satisfying own:

I.
Beat.
Ran.

Don't actually know how many tries it took. Chen's first spell sign's counter stopped incrementing at 99, but I often restart if Chen takes more then one life. Ran's first spell sign's counter was around ~80ish, so that's probably a more realistic number. Still, I finally prevailed. Fluffiness and dakka are no match for DETERMINATION and caffeine.

Not sure how, honestly. Got to her survival sign quite well off, only losing lives to her laser swastika and black hole. I honestly just bombed my way through her Fluffytail Cage, knowing full well her ultimate spell sign would wreck me while I was defenseless.

Her final sign isn't actually THAT bad. I was able to dodge most of it quite easily, my heart in my mouth because I had no lives left. Her dakka intensified until I couldn't find a path through and I lost. ...Or so I thought. I honestly don't know where my extra life came from, I'll have to go over the replay to see if I just got distracted and miscounted or if I got another one somewhere. In any case, my new life endowed me with four bombs[Sakuya FTW] and allowed me to cheese the rest of her spell sign.

EDIT:

OK, apparently I got over the 500 point threshold for the second extra life after Kokkuri-San's Contract and just didn't notice.


now i just have to deal with yukari, flandre and whoever the IN extra boss is

oughta be easy

Touhou 7: Perfect Cherry Blossom

Chances are you got an extra life from your score. You gain points while shooting her, after all.

Looking over the replay[Looking at your own replays is really weird, I've never bothered before], I did get an extra life from points. But in PCB, you only get extra lives from score tiles, as opposed to your overall points. If you didn't collect a a single point tile, you'd never get an extra life no matter how high your score rose. Confused the hell out of me when I transitioned from EoSD.
