Hi! I hope that you're doing well 😊

First of all, thank you for mentioning the Grimoire of Marisa to me last time, I found it in english on the internet, and I absolutely loved reading it! It made me appreciate the games and all its spell cards even more, and I had no idea such a book existed in the first place, so I'm really happy that you told me about it ^-^

But now, I wonder : do Touhou fans have favorite spell cards?

And ( if it's a thing ) : do you have favorite spell cards? If yes, why do you like these ones in particular?

(oh and, of course, feel free to ignore this message if you're not interested in these kind of questions or if it bothers you! and have a great day <3)

Hi Alcibiade!

Wow, I'm really glad to hear you love the Grimoire of Marisa! XD Maybe only very deep Touhou fans have read this book, but I think it's a very interesting book, and you're right, it gives me a very deep understanding of the games and spell cards.

Which spell card is your favorite is a standard topic among Touhou fans, and I'm so glad you brought up this great topic! XD

There are so many spell cards that I like that I can't narrow it down, but I'll try to focus on a few themes:

Spell cards that are fun to dodge

The first thing that comes to mind with my favorite spell card in terms of fun to dodge is this one:

Over The Rainbow is constructed with rain falling straight down and rainbows spreading out from the sides, then the player must make a path by shooting the rainbow and passing between them. I really love this and often want to play Double Spoiler for it. It's not difficult to clear, but the randomness of the rain and the fact that you have to wait until the very last minute to shoot the rainbow makes it a bit challenging. (It is also very close to Kogasa, so you can collide with her.)

I like both the concept of photographing rainbows in the rain and the balanced difficulty.

Also I love Hoshifuru Shinreibyou. I personally think this is an exquisite tension spell card!:

The last spell card of many final bosses is difficult to get through without using bombs, but this one can be gotten without bombs, and I find it fun to dodge the bullets. The randomness of this spell card is quite high, so sometimes it is easy and sometimes it is so hard that it is absolutely impossible, but I never get bored because of that.

----------------------

Spell cards that shocked me with the idea

If I had to pick a favorite boss for the entire battle, it would be Koishi Komeiji. Personally, I think she is the character that is filled with the unique performance of a bullet-hell shooting game. Especially Philosophy of a Hated Person is great:

This spell card consists of bullets that are lined up very regularly and a bullets of roses that seem to be moving very erratically, as if they were writhing. I think it can be interpreted in many ways, but the roses seem to me to symbolize the "hated person", since the player must move away from the roses. I was very shocked when I saw this, because it looks like a very abstract looking spell card, but it looks like a spell card with a clear story.

The movement of the roses is very eerie and scary. In reality, the game is programmed, so there are rules, and after playing it many times, I know that there is a certain safe position to stay in. However, I really like the way it expresses the unconscious movement of Koishi, which is her characteristic.

Also Ichirin's spell cards were very shocking overall.

Who else but ZUN could come up with the idea of a fist flying towards the player in a shooting game? XD

I especially like Fist Smash, where fists come from both sides and collide in the middle. It is very unique, but actually fun to dodge. 😄 (It's fun to get in the gap of the fists!)

----------------------

・My favorite of my wife's spell cards

Finally, I would like to mention the spell card of my favorite character, Alice. I love her spell cards overall because I love her method of attacking with a lot of dolls, but I especially love Goliath Doll in Touhou Hisoutensoku!

(You can see the spell card at 15:00 in the video above.)

In this spell card, a giant doll with two swords chasing and attacking the player. (Huh, why is she doing that crazy thing? 😄)

She generally acts like a smart person, but for some reason her attack in this spell card is completely brute force. I loved Alice even before Hisoutensoku was released, so I was very excited the fact that she was the final boss in Chiruno's story, but I was shocked that she actually did such an incomprehensible attack. But it made me like her even more. XD

By the way, this is not to say that I like the spell card itself, but this is a good opportunity, let me talk about this: I love the fact that a certain spell card of Marisa's in Danmaku Amanojaku is insanely easy to clear if you use a doll. 🤭

It might be hard to understand what happened if you have not played, but in this spell card, Marisa shoots a very wide Master Spark in the direction of the player, but if you place Cursed Decoy Doll, it will recognize that as the player's position, so the attack will not come towards the player at all. 😄 So, Marisa's weakness is a doll, at least in Danmaku Amanojaku. This fact was very exciting for me because I couldn't help but think of MariAli. 🥰

----------------------

Spell cards are very interesting because they express the characterization and story of the bosses, and I can't count the number of times I've been amazed by ZUN's flexible ideas.

There are so many spell cards I like, so this answer is already insanly long, but maybe after I post this I'll remember, "Oh, I haven't talked about that one yet!" 😅 I hope you will not be put off by my geekiness.

Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to talk about this! 💖
