Mokou has one of the most badass themes in the entire series. In a game where most characters get by with their good looks, cute-ish charms, or just plain weirdness, Mokou stands out as the lone, suffering victim, with an axe to grind no less. Reach For The Moon, Immortal Smoke indeed.
Wonderful play, really maginificent. I wish I still had my piano/still would play ... Damn you, ZUN, with your catchy songs! I am 28 years old and probably out of the target-group of danmaku (?). Still both Touhou - Imperishable Night and Subterannean Animism got me, not only because of the superb soundtracks those games used. So beautiful piano work, and although ZUN used like 398553745 different instruments in each song, it still is very playable, as this video shows. Five stars.
You just know his hands have been to bullet hell and back, they each have their own brain, and each know their place on that piano all too well for the talent of a mere human.
***** You might be right. Think about it, look at Marasy's hands. Now look at ZUN's drawn hands. They both are disformed (Marasy's looks like that when he plays piano).

First time I saw this video I was 14... Now I have 21, still loving marasy
he still does streams on his channel i think :)
Bloody hell, 2008 seems so far away when you think about ages.
First time I saw this video, I was 12...Now I am 12, still loving marasy
@@kfcdog1 eiyo. same here.
@BlakBerry XD
sounds so close to the real thing! this guy never ceases to amaze me...
Probably cause it's the song that utilizes the piano the most in all of touhou.
@@amiserablelittlepileofsecr856 i dont think thats what he meant. I think he meant thay he plays so well, that it sounds close to the real thing.
@@infrakazos good point
His fingers might want a lie down =D sounds just like the original, bravo to your efforts
@Martin Beltran Love replying to relics don’t you?

Oh my goodness, it’s ScarletFlameFlandre!
The legend was here
Lol
9 years later... its still amazing...
-gets through all this in one cut after attempting to for 17 years
-finger slips; accidently hits 2 keys for very last note

Top ten anime betrayals.
ok 1:17 gave me goose bumps. awesome job on this cover
Is from nico video the youtube japonese
1:17 Awesome :o
His hands are like spiders, at some points, jumping quickly from one point to the next...
Uploaded 15yr ago is crazy, I feel so old
God I'm so glad this cover is still up, one of my all time childhood favorite and absolutely monstrous skills, 13 years later and still popping off
i like how repeating Touhou songs are always the best. for example Reach for the moon immortal smoke, flowering night, luna clock~luna dial, etc.
Im still coming back to this its hella lit
Those are some fast, accurate fingers there. Extremely impressive, and very well done!
No words can describe what I am feeling right now
he is a god of piano
10 years later and I still watch it
I prefer this version over the original one. Somehow it feels so raw, more emotional and more humanlike without those synths ZUN put on this
Zun does love his synths tho.
the ZUNPETS tho....
When the Touhou songs themselves are even Lunatic . . .
This guy is too good
o.o
that is amazing.... the speed he moves his hands at, the grace.
this is truly perfect.
Marasy's a beast. Plain and simple.
Dude you will go down as a legend in the halls of awsomeness and epicness creating youhh this is the most awsome this ever OMFG AWSOOOOME
This is awesome
Wonderful play, really maginificent. I wish I still had my piano/still would play ...
Damn you, ZUN, with your catchy songs!

hard to believe someone who was in their 20s when this comment was made is now 40
@@D00000T it makes me a little sad to read comments over a decade old because of that
@Consumer645 certainly. its teaching my to cherish the time i have
You are forty now? Do you still enjoy ZUN music lol
@@D00000T what's even more amazing is that nobody has commented on that during 12 years :o
and here we are youube algorithm
hope you're doing well op
the outro was just brilliant!!
Marasy made this sound so metal on the piano, his fingers can be the danmaku itself
Videos from 14years ago destroy any sort of self esteem
Awesomee!
thats so sick
I couldnt breathe during this. Literally, I was breathless.
OMG!
you are amazing!
i can only dream of being that good at piano one day
very good job!
This is the best remix of Mokou's theme that was ever made. Period.
Moko-chan's theme is awesome, in every aspect
Holy crap. Favorite touhou song, done justice.
Wonderful !
Difficulty: Lunatic
Reach for the harmony, Immortal Piano
You just know his hands have been to bullet hell and back, they each have their own brain, and each know their place on that piano all too well for the talent of a mere human.
ZUN? Is that you?
You do this song justice.
Great job!
Definitly the best version !
I am speechless
My finger going numb just seeing this masterpiece
9001/5
This takes awesome to a whole new level.
This is the best Touhou piano ever!
Kaguya and Eirin disliked this, unfortunately.
Nice piano playing !
totally awesome
Damn it Marasy is AMAZING
Epic nuggets with an extra serving of awesomesauce.
I can play it but slower and my hands aren't big enough so I can't reach all the notes and I have to cut away some awesomeness… :'(
mA5k5sHatt3r can you send the piano sheets to me on my mail please.
My mail: kn.coc.gaming@gmail.com
Clash Of Gameplay The email has been sent.
mA5k5sHatt3r If i could get one to i would vote for you to be the president.
Thank you so much mA5k5sHatt3r you are the best :)
Clash Of Gameplay You are welcome. :)
Damn, marasy can play anything
didn't even think that the part at 1:17 was even possible when I first heard it. The internet loves proving me wrong.
I enjoy listening to the piano but not playing it.
I have tremors and they really act up when I play the piano
omg this is incredible... you have just made my night
... Nostalgia.
Wonderfull!
Is Marasy...ZUN's son?
x) I am just kidding.
I think the world can't handle two beer gods.
***** You might be right. Think about it, look at Marasy's hands. Now look at ZUN's drawn hands. They both are disformed (Marasy's looks like that when he plays piano).
Oooooooh my Gawd!
oh my god, incredible, man.
Outstanding!!!!!!!!!!
i wont say this is awsome... because its way beyond awsome nice playing man
This made me cry.
Marasy is a fucking demigod. This is not the result of hard work and much practice, this is a demigod's power.
oly fak.... hats awesome especially 1:18 - 1:42 insaneee great job :D
His hands are making breakdance :o
If you listen to the real version, it sounds just like it. I can't belived a really played it that well.
I like this music.
Insane man 100000/5
1:17
I want to slow time as well
Thou art a truly piano hero
Nicely Done!
Cheers
That's a cool song!
I can almost feel the phoenixes being thrown at me...
THANK YOU!!!!!
this guy makes it look sooo easy... whereas its as hard as hell to play it that fast
happy new year.
I'm moved...
This's an awesome performance!!

@TheMegadore I wasnt jeopardizing mokou. I was questioning marasy's piano
YOU ARE AWESOME O_O
awesome ! impossible to play better :D
@AmeKurou The ultimate (and most awesome) Watermark ever!
Holy. Wow.
he can play the lunatic piano mode in touhou pieces!
Watching in 2014 :3 Marasy is amazing
not even 2015
nerd
blazblu3 I lolled.

...May I have those hands?
@@whackowafer4765 I'd still want them.. my hands are really small and it becomes so frustrating for piano
Ok Kira
It makes you wonder why other people have more videos of marasy than his actual channel.
awesome!!
Im still here to listen... woot...
God called. He wants his hands back.
Mokou in grainy sepia film points and yells at someone.
Title card: "Burn in hell, Kaguya!"
impressive
...this is the greatest thing I've ever seen...(besides someone beating the Extra stage on Lunatic >_>)
Great!
