Unused Content in Touhou Project

Today I'm looking at a bunch of unused content throughout Touhou games that I find very interesting. There's much more to see than what I'm sharing here, so take a look for yourself below!

Special thanks to Dai, Gastari, Pearl and Priw8 for information, footage and asset digging, and HakanaiBlue for a bunch of translating!
