Touhou 9 - Phantasmagoria of Flower View - Extra Clear (Komachi)

Hah, the PoFV Extra Stages can be surprisingly annoying.

Here, I have one hell of a run. I get all the way to Episode 8 (Reimu) without dying once, of which includes no death runs against both Marisa and Yuka. Yeah, that was a nice surprise.

I kind of flop Reimu early on here. I hardly ever reach Reimu and it's been a while since I've even played this stage, so I kind of forgot how easily the yin-yang orbs can rape if you let them corner you.

I absolutely sucked against Sikieiki. After the initial and inevitable death (has anyone done a flawless run against Sikieiki? Surviving that crap for 120 seconds must be ridiculously difficult), I died two more times to Spirits. That's right, Spirits, those stupid glowing butterfly things that fall to the bottom of the screen. Both deaths were highly avoidable, and the second time I died to a Spirit, I had 1 second left before I could actually damage Sikieiki. Bawww.

Happy to have this one complete; I'll give Sikieiki's Extra a whirl sometime in the near future.
