The following is what I do on IN extra:

Collect point items whenever I have an opportunity (which is all the time)

Capture as many spell cards as I can.

That's it. That's all you need to do to pass a billion in extra.

As for the main game, it's not impossible to pass a billion in stage 6 alone if you capture enough spell cards.

...Huh. Wait a minute. *launches IN*

Oh.

...Okay so it turns out I've passed a billion with Ghost team on normal, Yukari solo on normal, Border team on hard, and three seperate teams for Extra. So, uh, ignore what I said earlier, I have the memory span of a mentally handicapped goldfish, I guess. :V

I've still never reached 1.5 billion, though.

Well, I've only reached 1.5 billion in 2 runs out of MANY attempts.

Also, I finally managed Byakuren's second non-spell. It turns out it IS just that: Streaming pseudo-aimed lasers and praying that you dodge the bullets.
nintendonut888: Hey Baity. I beat the high score for Sanae B hard on the score.dat you sent me. X3
Baity: For a moment, I thought you broke 1.1billion. Upon looking at my score.dat, I can assume that you destroyed the score that is my failed (first!) 1cc attempt on my first day of playing. Congratulations.

1 billion is very easy to get in IN. I mean, I got over 1 billion with Remilia Solo on Easy, where reaching the time threshold is almost impossible on some levels.

I got 1,7 billion with Marisa Solo recently (on easy). I had managed to capture all of Kaguya's Last Spells. If you don't count easy, I've got 1,51 billion on Normal with Border Team.

I just did abnormally well against normal difficulty Shou, who I've been having problems with. Two deaths (one stupid death on her first card, one clipdeath on her last card) and one bomb (I hate her damn Vajra card).

Actually, what is so bad about SakuyaA?

Some people tell me that SakuyaB is much better, some that SakuyaA is cheap.....

ReimuB isn't bad, but I like my bombs better when they do damage. :)

Does she just suck or is SakuyaA pig bottom like MarisaBugged?

I wouldn't call her broken or anything like MarisaBugged, but her two main advantages are that she has homing which is actually powerful, and that she has four bombs per life, on top of which the bombs do can do pretty high damage to bosses, so you can essentially bomb-spam through a lot of the more difficult attacks in the game, which is why some people consider her cheap. Definitely the easiest to get a 1cc with... a 1cc with her is generally considered less skillful than with a shot type like Reimu B or Marisa A, which make you work for your 1cc.

SakuyaB's shot is a lot more powerful than SakuyaA if you know how to aim it properly, but it takes more skill to use. SakuyaB's bomb... actually I'm not really sure at all how you're supposed to use it, to be honest. From the few times I have used SakuyaB, I'm guessing the idea is that you use it defensively to clear out bullets and get time to shotgun enemies while it lasts (which is a really long time). I could be wrong, though.

No, the reduction in damage is incredibly strong, making this point moot. Basically, all this bomb has is defensive uses. Hey, it works for me :V

SakuyaB is designed for defensive bomb spam.
I don't remember if her power is any good or not, but at least it's better than SakuyA's if memory serves.
Her bombs mostly look pretty and allow you to pseudo-ubergraze.

SakuyA takes the element of "aiming" out of the game (hits all stage enemies unfocused, locks onto bosses focused) and gives you four decentish bombs per life entirely in exchange for meh damage and a horrible Cherry rate.

I cannot believe some people have trouble getting a billion on Imperishable Night's extra. My no-deaths clears net me a score of 1.84billion...

Anyway- after getting raped by MoF on lunatic... I have concluded that PCB is:
A: The easiest Touhou game.
B: The second easiest Touhou game-easiest being MoF.
C: I am just not doing something right....

Wow. In this random play of PCB stage 6, I "captured" the ultimate bullet spam (first time without any slowdown to boot), and captured everything after Butterfly Delusion, meaning I beat the two hardest attacks in the stage at once (fairy spam and Resurrection Butterfly). Now if only I didn't completely screw up and die on each of Yuyuko's first three spell cards I'd have saved the replay. :P

Also, I managed to defeat lunatic Syou with only one death, due to me capturing her first two spell cards.

And I realized why lunatic Byakuren is SO hard:

4 non-spells

6 spell cards

One of these non-spells are trivial, and another isn't that difficult (her third). None of her spell cards are trivial (though I suppose if I can learn the correct movements Magical Butterfly may very well become trivial someday), one of these 6 is bomb resistant, and another is bomb immune. The bomb resistant one can still be reasonably easily beaten with one bomb. Her last spell card by nature has deaths sneak up on you due to how hard it is to read the openings and judge if you can make an opening.

So assuming you trivialize those two non-spells, use only one bomb on her fifth spell card, and for the sake of convenience ignoring her final spell card, you have 7 attacks that are not trivial and can easily kill you. Each life has two bombs. This is 3 lives this boss will likely choke from you, and that's not factoring in her clip-death happy final spell card, whose last phase makes VoWG look like openings are as plentiful as bullets and can kill you any number of times.

So tl;dr: ARGH.

Think I'm gonna try to 1cc IN on lunatic next then, and get imba-many points! Then PCB extra after that. But yeah, getting alot of points in extra is easy, enemies drop shitloads of point items and your graze count will be insane no matter how bad you are.

Ooh and I just capture appolo 13 (hard) and unlocked Heaven Spider's Butterfly-capturing web. Now THAT is a cool spell!
And w00t just captured appolo 13 on lunatic aswell during a full run, I thought it was supposed to be but hard

Ok, so since SakuyaA is cheap and requires no skill, I've tried Extra and Phantasm with ReimuB.....
Extra - 2 lives left.
Phantasm.......finished with 4 lives, better than any SakuyaA run I've had :V

4 misses, 2 of these in stage.....never really bothered to learn the stage patterns.

I just capped Pseudo Stradivarius, which makes all Prismriver cards capped and brings me to 140/141. That just leaves Resurrection Butterfly 80%... @_@

EDIT: Huh, just cleared it only being hit once. Maybe this won't take as long as I thought. Then again, I said that about VoWG Lunatic. Also lol, on that run I capped all five of Yuyuko's first five cards and I STILL failed everything else badly enough to finish at 2/3.

Huh, well, I'll give it try, although I fully expect her answer to be something along the lines of 'lol, no'. Also what the hell I just got hit by the very first wave of red butterflies and then I dodged the whole rest of the card. <_<

MoF Hard Cleared! Too bad Stage 4 desynched.

VoGW went so well. After 4 bombs, I dodged between amulets at the bottom of the screen about 5 times in a row, with at least one of those only by sheer luck (I lost track of my sprite in a wall of amulets).

That means : I DIDN'T DIE TO VOGW
