Well, the 30 day one was pretty fun, so here's one solely focused on the music. Hope you all enjoy it! It would also be cool to see more discussion about people's choices. 1) Which is your favourite boss song? 2) Which game has the best soundtrack? 3) What is your favourite arrange? 4) What is the first Touhou song you heard? 5) Which song makes you feel most nostalgic? 6) Which is your favourite character's best theme (or arrange, in case your favourite character only has one theme)? 7) Which song has impacted you the most and why? 8) Which song would you recommend a non-Touhou fan and why? 9) Which is your favourite non-boss non-stage song? 10) Which character theme is the worst? 11) Of your favourite three characters, which theme is best? 12) Do you prefer official themes or arranges? 13) Which is your favourite stage song? 14) What is the most epic arrange you've heard? 15) What Touhou song have you listened to the most? Thanks to Dani for most of the questions. |

1) My favourite boss song is Corpse Voyage. "Waifu bias!" you scream - actually it's the other way around. A lot of the reason I like Orin is because of her song.
I think it's really upbeat, fun and exciting, especially for what is usually a tense boss battle. It's made all the more sweeter with the juxtaposition of Orin's occupation, and also the slow melodies of the Lullaby of Deserted Hell immediately before it. Perhaps more importantly, I have yet to find an arrange of this song that I like better than the original, mostly because the original just sounds really good and arranges often lose the atmosphere that the original has.

Favourite Boss Song?Well, that's easy. Barbie Mi-- eeeh... Plastic Mind, from Mystic Square. The very first theme I fell in love with, belonging to my very first favourite Touhou character, remixed in my very first Touhou shump which is also amongst my favourites. Nostalgia, hell yeah.

Reach for the Moon, Immortal Smoke, Mokou's theme from Imperishable Night. I feel this song captures Mokou perfectly. It's melancholic yet at the same time has an eerie, encouraging melody (specifically at around 34 seconds in), which I feel is perfect for Mokou. In fact, the song is a part of why I like Mokou so much. |

1) Which is your favourite boss song? Emotional Skyscraper ~ Cosmic MindNot only does it have the Pokemon ORAS-worthy wind instruments, but it's a mixture between intense and dramatic final-boss theme and the beauty and gentleness of Byakuren! |

1) Which is your favourite boss song? I have a ton of them :'D But after trying not to turn to the same cliché choices, I'm going to go with Last Occultism ~ Esotericist of the Present World, unarguably the best song in ULiL. I love it because it's starts on a calm and slightly melancholic tone and then it speeds up which I think is very fitting of Sumireko. Besides, it actually makes me feel like I'm fighting a boss, I don't think a lot of Touhou songs manage to do that. Was pretty close to choosing Primordial Beat as well, Necrofantasia and Border of Life were pretty close too. |

1) Which is your favourite boss song?Faith is for the transient peopleI know it's not an especially popular track and I'm not even sure why I like it so much. Probably because of how well it attuned to my feelings at the time I finally reached boss Sanae after getting stuck on MoF Stage 5 in so many attempts. I just really like the melody a lot, it feels really serene and... uplifting. I dunno, I can't really explain why I like this track so much, but I just do. Note: It's not my favorite song in Touhou; that one would have to wait for another da- ... WAIT WHY IS THERE NO QUESTION ON FAVORITE STAGE THEME???

i would've said Necrofantasia, but the original is really bone dry but this theme is good, despite short This theme is good, it's my 3rd favourite. My favourite theme atm is Lunatic Princess. Not because it's Kaguya's theme, it's because I love the trumpets and its DAMN CATCHY. 2nd is History of the Moon. |

1) I heard Marisa's GFW theme on Chumlum's stream, and now it's my favorite boss theme. I had to decide between UFO Extra, DDC Stage 6, and the beautiful IN themes though hehe~

Day 2: Best soundtrack: MoF, SA, or IN. But, if I had to pick... IN. Reach for the Moon, Immortal Smoke, Extend Ash ~ Hourai Victim, Flight of the Bamboo Cutter ~ Lunatic Princess, Gensokyo Millenium ~ History of the moon, Eastern Youkai Beauty... I love it all.

2. Which game has the best soundtrack?
MoF's soundtrack is literally music to my ears in every sense of the saying. Every song in the game is a pleasure to listen to, and I really liked how autumn-based and traditional Japanese-sounding it was.
My favorite Touhou theme of all time.

2) Hmm.. Its a tie between UFO and TD for their unique sounds..
My top favorites in both games
Inter-dimensional Voyage of a Ghostly Passenger - UFO Stage 4 theme
Shoutoku Legend ~ True Administrator - Miko's theme
Youkai Back Shrine Road - TD Extra theme
Futasuiwa from Sado - Mamizou's theme
At the End of Spring - UFO Stage 1 theme
Heian Alien - Nue's theme
UFO Romance in the Night Sky - UFO Extra theme
A Tiny, Tiny, Clever Commander - Nazrin's theme
The Sealed Cloud Route - UFO Stage 2 theme
The TD Extra theme is my all-time favorite!

2) Although Mountain of Faith has really a really good OST, I'm giving my vote to Imperishable Night.

2) Subterrean Animism definitely. It's only Koishi's theme and Stage 2 that I think are meh, the rest is really great.
