mostly though, I'd love to see how people would do in streaming sections
I'll take that challenge up. Normal Mode first though. If I can pull it off very well, then I'll go for Hard Mode.
SA Stage 4. And maybe Stage 5, depends on how much time I have.

Without streaming (or standing still) most patterns will form walls. Especially with the ones that are pseudo-aimed in addition to being aimed. (EoSD Stage 5 maids come to mind). Other ones that only shoot lines of bullets are possible. However, memorization is still needed to prevent being stuck in corners.

ReimuASA Stage 4 Normal: 923 graze w/ 1 bomb. Note that the bomb does not remove bullets (until the end, so...). Either way, that's a ridiculously small number for a graze-centered game. The bomb was used out of desperation anyway. About 300 graze for the stage all up. About 400 graze was collected during 1 spell card.
SA Stage 5 Normal: Completed stage portion with just under 300 graze. Finished Orin with 1.3k graze, and failing a simple spell card because I refused to graze (big mistake). 2 Lives LOST to the stupid Cat's Walk / Step / whatever spell card in an attempt to finish it before the 3rd wave.
SA Stage 6 Normal: Before Orin; 8 graze. Before Utsuho; 400 graze. Afterwards, 1.5k graze.
SA Stage 4 Hard: 1.5k graze w/ multiple deaths.
Going to work on it. Too much DBDB frustration, screw it. 519 graze for the stage.
