Really digging that "all over the place" "I don't give no fxxk about how Touhou fans feel" is the theme of this game.

It's supposed to be stage 4 bosses that have gimmicks, not stage 5 bosses.

As far as I remember, it was always the Stage 5 boss with the most special gimminck.

It has always been stage 4 bosses that have the most notable gimmicks, because they usually change depending on which character and shot type you are using.

I don't think there's really been any form of gimmick among stage 5 bosses.  Just because they have unique-looking spell cards doesn't mean they have gimmicks.

Yeah, the Stage 5 boss' underlying theme is usually "the servant" with a couple of exceptions.

...And I have to say all of this look great
Spoiler:
Including the MURKA Juggalo fairy and the EX boss,
The latter I'm very curious about.

I don't think there's really been any form of gimmick among stage 5 bosses.  Just because they have unique-looking spell cards doesn't mean they have gimmicks.

EXCUSE ME? Sakuya has time stop, Youmu has slowdown, Reisen has phasing bullets, Orin has reviving zombie fairies, Futo has a boat, Seija has screenflips. The only gimmicky stage 4 bosses are Seiga with reviving Yoshika and maybe Murasa with her anchors. Changing spellcards or different bosses depending on the character/shottype is not a gimmick in and of itself.

Based on this post in another part of the forum, maybe the "ultramarine orb" in the title is really meant to refer to the jewels of the dragon king (whose daughters are the basis of the Watatsukis).

Spoiler:
There was the theory when LoLK was revealed that it referred to the Chinese Tang dynasty empereor Zhang Yue who, according to this wikipedia page, if he was the emperor at the time, sent his own similar jewels as a gift to the daughter of the Fujiwara clan's head who he was to marry. They were then stolen by the dragon king and the Fujiwara's son and his would-be wife, Tamatori, retrieved them. This story itself was based on the earlier Toyotama (aka Toyohime) and Hoori legend.

Junko  herself looks like she dresses in a somewhat Chinese style, so maybe she's related to Zhang Yue?

But maybe ZUN is cobbling together these two stories into one, which is why Junko is involved and might have a grudge with the Lunatic Kingdom and maybe Gensokyo, etc. Somehow. I don't exactly have the details figured out as to why she would have a grudge or why Hell, etc. would be involved.

Obviously nothing has been translated yet, but that's just my simple theory for some of what might be going on based on what's been theorized and seen so far.

Easy guys, both stage 4 and 5 have gimmick, and it's ok.

Or maybe ZUN just girlyfied Zhang Yue to Junko, like he's always do. Although, i'm only curious how the goddess of hell have anything to do with Junko and rule over three realms.

Like I said, just because those spell cards are unique compared to other bosses in their respective games doesn't necessary make them gimmicks.  Stage 4 bosses having the gimmick I mentioned has been around since Touhou 4.  That's a more notable gimmick than the so-called gimmicks of stage 5 bosses.

Aya and Minamitsu are the only stage 4 bosses with no gimmicks.

On the side note, this is the plot according to Reddit:
Spoiler:
"The game's plot is basically Junko sent Hecatia Lapislazuli's purified hell fairies (that somehow survived the process) to the Moon for an invasion, and the Lunarians are forced into the Dream World but they don't want to stay there so they went on to invade Gensokyo. Eirin sent Reimu and co. onto the Moon to save the Lunar Capital so the Lunarians can go back and not bother Gensokyo anymore.

Oh and also, Sagume Kishin made the Occult Balls to make the rumors she spread about Lunar Capital true so they can move into Gensokyo."

well what can i say ZUN has really outdone himself. Started playing touhou and enjoyed it but then moved onto other STG's. Tried to come back into touhou but found the series boring as hell now and could never get back into it.  Was hyped for the LOLK demo thinking this was the chance. I'll get back into the series. To my disappointment played it for like an hour and just went back to other STG's. Been playing LOLK today and it's just so much fun. Can say with clear confidence that the series has been revived for me and i'm not forcing myself to play.
WARNING SPOILERS BELOW IF I SCREW THIS UP

This is indeed the case. Additional details:
Spoiler:
Junko is (presumably) the Chinese sun goddess Xi He, mother of the ten suns that Hou Yi (Chang'e's husband) shot down. As such, she really hates Chang'e and invaded the moon in order to get revenge on her. Hecatia is a friend of hers. The fairies are able to threaten the Lunar Capital because they're embodiments of nature and life, and therefore kegare. In the Extra Stage, Sagume informs the protagonists that the Lunarians are still under attack in Dream World (thanks to Hectatia, who can move there at will) and they head off to take care of things.

The ex boss and stage 5 boss I don't think I'll ever like. Could have been worse, though. Could have been MIMA.

Stage 4 and 6 bosses are OK at least.

Is it just me or does it seem like this game has a whole lot of circular movement? Especially in the bullet patterns (ie how they're formed and what they form into).

Maybe every game has been like this and I barely noticed now?
