You know, I was wondering how the hell it is possible that the spellcard in UB: 96% - Great Galaxy of Spiritus, is spawned in SUCH a smooth way as if the stars are gliding upon appearance.
I was viewing Afro boss replay on youtube ( as it is always inspiring to watch the effects done ) when suddenly I noticed a bright flash of red light when the spellcards end. Now I know that bright red flash in Uwabami Breakers means the death of a familiar, enemy. And guess what, they ARE familiars.
And actually, alot of people are forgetting how useful familiars are. A few examples:
- The spinning colours behind Kanako in MoF are familiars.
- The spinning wired amulets in Byakuren's final card are familiars.
Many more probably but I haven't like looked through all the effects of original touhou games.
Hell, I wouldn't be suprised if the spellcircles in Touhou are familiars as well. ( well, I made my spellcircles like familiars to imitate the lagging effect )
I am curious how many people here use familiars for effects and trick-effects.
