Touhou 12.8: Great Fairy Wars - Extra Stage (No Commentary)

After-Festival For those of you who may have thought this game was too easy... welcome to the Extra Stage. You absolutely have to have mastered everything about freezing thus far to even have a chance to best this stage. Enemy patterns may be simple, but with that they give you A LOT of stuff to focus on at once, so more than any other Touhou game you need to quickly change your attention from one thing to another, to another in quick succession. The mid bosses aren't too bad once you’ve learned how they work. For the most part they attack like they did before. So an aggressive strategy takes them out really quick. Marisa is crazy to fight against but she's incredibly... learn-able. Her attacks tend to be very direct, so as long as you learn the best way to fight her she becomes easier. It also helps that her insane barrages of bullets can work in your favor cause it makes it easier to cover a lot of the field in ice so you can replenish your lives.
