Touhou 18 - Unconnected Marketeers Stage 5 Lunatic No Miss No Bomb No Cards Reimu

~
very fun stage
....but god damnit why does second non exist
first half is pretty straightforward
misdirect the midnon it makes it so much easier - thanks Mino!
oh and time down the midboss (not timeout) - this way you skip a lot of yinyangs
second half is where it gets fun
cute little spam - use both your needles and amulets
amulets can clear the yinyangs at the sides, but if they are close to you I would recommend needles, and needles deal good damage to take care of groups of yinyangs
the end section is a bit wack but its very doable still - the initial angle is aimed so you can make it better by staying higher - make sure they dont overlap with the last fairy
for the boss uhhhh this boss is quite something - looks like they can critroll quite a bit
Plus knows more than I do for this boss so check his vid out: • Video
1st non move from side to side and watch out for the stars - I dont fully get it
1st spell if she moves left (like in this vid) then I wait for purple things to open a gap and take it asap, if she moves right I go back to middle before pink stuff locks me away from middle
2nd non THIS THING IS SO AWFUL IT KILLED 20+ RUNS WHAT THE HELL ZUN - pray
the stars can linger for a long time and they change angles when they accelerate and they can come from bottom corners to your position like what?????
2nd spell is... wack
you can predict where the next laser is going to appear in your gap by looking at the earlier spawns but that doesnt solve the issue of first few lasers from the next wave - sometimes it can give you ????? waves and apparently it can even wall (I trust Plus on this one)
3rd non thank god a break - just dodge one by one
3rd spell DO NOT COPY WHAT I DID - I am going to upload an alternative way of doing it but for some reason I could never pull it off on pace??? so I stopped (here: • megumu 3rd spell alter... )
4th spell - if first lasers happen to be close to you, move away from them - this will both give better gaps with lasers and will prevent the stars from overlapping with your gap
also st4 is worse than I expected so hahaAAAAAAAAAAAAA
