Crows are the most intelligent of the bird species.

I think the Brown Kea has that position right now.

But that's not to detract from crows, who are hella smart.

After playing the regular Touhou shooters, Aya's movement in StB is frustrating beyond belief. It's amazing how that game manages to make reasonably simple patterns about twice as hard as they should be.

Aya herself is okay though (I have a fondness for crow's legs).

Congrats Ruro, and finally you've changed your name again. I've been curious about why you didn't do that before, because as far as I seen it, you've changed names weekly before the Parsee one got stuck.

Anyway, Aya is okay, but StB is my kryptonite, I. EFFING. HATE. THAT. SHIT!!! It's the Devil Incarnate, it's a soulless, utterly evil being bent on destroying me. Even if I see its folder in my "Touhou Project" folder, my hands start to boil.

StB was great, but HOLY FREAKING BYAKUREN ON A STICK, SUIKA. I have literally captured every other scene in the game, but Suika's EX cards just beat the crap out of me. I still can't figure out the secret behind EX-7, and I've managed to get to the last shot of 8 roughly twice.

I have been stuck like this for roughly six months. T_T

Aya is indeed awesome. Apart from the oft-overlooked fact that a great deal of what we know about Gensokyo and its residents has come directly from her journalistic efforts, she has an independent, happy-go-lucky nature to her that I really like. Sure, she's pals with kappas and gives faith to Kanako, but for the most part it seems like she's on her own, not necessarily aligned to anyone, enjoying everyone's company in general. She's the spirit of Gensokyo, in many ways - feral, carefree, magical - an intriguing fusion of old Japanese myths and legends with modern phenomena, technology and attitudes. And her outfit's pretty cool, too. I just adore her.

By the way Sapz, how did that challenge ever go? :V
Err... which one? I've been doing too many recently. :V

Unrelated, have you ever tried shotgunning Hachi? It works ridiculously well, you can hit the main body and all six legs at the same time and usually kill him before the third phase starts up. It consistently kills him no deaths from your savestate. :V I still suck at Hibachi though, haven't done better than a 3cc for the battle as a whole yet.

EX-7 is, I think, sort of counter-intuitive because if you want to survive you have to head towards the places with the highest density of bullets. You take a picture of that and then get a load of camera charge for free, which usually nets you just enough to take the next picture before you get clusterfucked. Also, aside from the beginning section you don't want to be moving the whole way around the screen, just stick to a smaller area depending on how fast you're getting the camera charged.

EX-8... not much advice I can give for that since it's basically just 'dodge bullets'. :V Just remember that the bigger bullets have really small hitboxes, I guess.
Let's fight.

Probably for that crap she spewed in the What Did You Do Today? thread, with your encouragement, but I could be wrong. Could be a whole other reason. Ah well. Can't say I'll miss her.

She was given a chance, and went ahead and said things in that thread that clearly crossed the line, long after TSO and others spelled out in giant letters that that kinda talk is pretty unacceptable. If she's not happy, she should read a little bit better in the next forum she goes to. Just my $0.02. Assuming that's the reason for her departure, that is. I didn't even notice she was gone until you brought it up.

I guess no one really noticed, I wouldn't had noticed either if it wasn't for that PM she sent me.

Anyways, back to praising Aya and Ruro's StB prowess.

Aya also cares about the environment. Alert street photographers submit proof!

I gave up at st4 because her movement is terrific and it makes the game unplayable.

Focus and microtap. Although the speed of unfocused movement can come in handy if you want to be all slick and fake out the boss.

EDIT: Ruro, that replay is pretty amazing, but what I watched from your download link has you dying after three photos. Did you upload the wrong one? I'd love to see a replay of you clearing that stage.

I think Aya as the media. But if everything we know about Gensokyo is because of the media, that means that things in Gensokyo is far much better and happier? Like how media only shows disasters, murders and that kinda crap.

Or because, Gensokyo is fueled by disbelief, the disbelief of a "happy media" has embodied within Aya, and what Aya writes in her newspaper are actually a lot more worse in reality.

Canonically, Aya does have a tendency to "improve the truth" in her stories, to make them more entertaining. So maybe things are actually a lot more chill in Gensokyo, and its residents are more personable.

Your post just completely shifted my opinion of Aya for the better. I have a feeling you're pretty good in English classes.
