- Touhou 7: Perfect Cherry Blossom had the most complex story of any Touhou game at the time of its release. How does Touhou 7 manage to balance its arcade roots with a more complex narrative? Join me as we analyze what Touhou 7 does to tell its story.
This video was made for #PCBirthday to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Touhou 7! Make sure to check out all of the other Touhou 7 related content people make today!

8:54 One thing that no one gives credit to is how Youmu's theme fits her straightforward personality & tone especially in the context of the game. The rest of the soundtrack is serene including the boss themes, but Youmu's theme sounds intense right off the bat and closer to boss music you're used to. Hell, with how it's grouped with the especially calm and beautiful Ancient Temple, it plays further into Youmu's dualities.
ofcourse
happy birthday pcb
I really like the literary analysis lens approach to Touhou storytelling, I think it's quite interesting. I always wonder about how intentional ZUN is with a lot of these elements, but if nothing else scrutinizing it with a magnifying glass like this makes clear that regardless of author intent, Touhou's good design elements extend past just "cool music" and "fun characters" alone
Happy 20th birthday to PCB! I enjoyed and had lots of fun contributing to #PCBirthday!
Always love it when people explore the story structure of Touhou games and you nailed it in this video. Here's to 20 years more!
11:41 "Surprisingly easy spell"
Meanwhile I've never managed to clear it without bombing...
Happy PCB Day!

There were two cut-ins for just before Resurrection Butterfly, depending on the translation patch you used. Before it was changed to “My life might have ended knowing nothing of my misery, were this a world without the custom of priestly retreat”, it first read “Remembering the melancholy of human existence, even ghosts stray from the path of righteousness”.
I like the old one better- it basically outright tells you the reason Yuyuko went bad, that being that she wanted to return to her human life even if she had to kill all of Gensokyo to do so. The new one is obscure and doesn’t make much sense.
truly a Perfect Cherry Birthday
Happy PCB Day! Sometimes I still can't believe how long has Touhou been out there, wish that ZUN continues to make games for atleast 20 more years. 😁
amazing video, keep up the good work
I've really been loving your recent videos, keep it up!
Yo, it's my favourite touhou game! Thanks for the video, happy PCB day! ❤
An awesome video for one of my favorite games of all time 🥳
❤thank you for the analysis
I absolutely love these types of videos
Do one for every game please
That's cool and handy but the Prismrivers are the type to argue over if they would rather have unlimited bacon but no more games, or games, unlimited games, but no games
Noooooo 😂😂😂
PCB is probably my favorite touhou game. Its soundtrack is my personal favorite.
My favorite touhou game is 20 years old? Good lord. 20 years of thiccsune, and extra EXTRA stage, and some utter bangers 9f songs.
HAPPY 20TH ANNIVERSARY PCB!
The only thing that Youmu's sword cannot cut in half are the GPU prices.
PCB has the most character I liked (5, Yakumo family, Yuyuko, and Youmu), and it is also one of the first Touhou games I knew about. I also love this game's music, one of the best though out the series, the game really has a special place in my heart. Anyway, Happy #PCBirthday #!
Happy birthday PCB, glad i got the Extra's and Phantasm Stage clear
This is my first touhou game and I wanna say that it was worth it I'm glad to have started with it, it story tells well and yet allows challenge and replayability
Touhou 7's music, art, and storytelling make it one of my favorite games
This was the game that introduced me to Touhou Project, way back when........ thank you ZUN, happy birthday PCB ❤️🌸
happy pcb!!! my first touhou game i ever played!!
Yuyuko is actually one of the best characters in all of Touhou.
Youmu is my favorite character
Happy Birthday PCB!

Hey man good vid, is it possible to add my vid to your PCB playlist I just feel left out😢
Happy birthday PCB 🥳
Ayyy, the first Touhou game I ever beat!
Letty deserves so much attention
"With those Endings done, so ends Touhou 7."
You forgot one tiiiiiny detail. There's 2 more Stages after you get the Endings. This is one of the few Touhou Games that gets a Phantasm Stage. An even harder Stage than the Extra Stage, which is already pretty difficult.
He didnt forget that detail. That's something else according to him.
@@Yellowpikachu1 Fair enough then.
Can you do Touhou 8 as well?
Happy day or your birth #PCB
the DLW slander OMFG 💀💀💀💀💀
I actually asked one of the developers ahead of time if it was okay to use footage for it in the dialogue pacing section. Appreciated their willingness to accept criticism lol.
@@Megapig9001 it's just funny lmao
