Let's Play Super Touhou Wars
<< | ^^ | >>
Before we get back to the real plot, we have time for a couple faffin' chapters!
My team roster is down from nine to four right now! All I have is Reimu, Marisa, Keine and Alice.
Which is a shame, because I have OVER 50000 POINTS with which to upgrade people.
In addition to some general upgrades for Marisa and Keine, Reimu gets a rare weapons upgrade!
LET'S GO
Our intrepid hero Marisa sleeps!
.......sa.......Ma....ri......sa.......
are.....you............coming?
It's another one of these dreams!
Mysterious Voice praises Marisa for resolving the incident, and for the great power that she and Reimu possess.
Marisa wants to know who this is!
She is thanked once more, and urged to take the rest she deserves after her victory...
In spite of all of her myriad unanswered questions, Marisa wakes up! She figures that she probably isn't getting these dreams due to some curse, because then they'd be nightmares.
It's one of Remilia's bats!
It's bringing her an invitation to a party...
At the lake!
Fairies are playing hide and seek.
Daiyousei is there too, looking for Cirno!
Someone says they saw her hanging out with the Three Fairies. Near the red house.
Denying allegations of being all lonely without Cirno, Daiyousei worries about the danger of approaching that house recklessly...
In the Scarlet Devil Mansion!
What are Cirno and Rumia doing here.
WHAT ARE THESE PEOPLE DOING HERE.
Sunny is hatching a plan to start living in this place. Using her abilities, she can hide them within the mansion!
Rumia's part of the plan, too! Her darkness will help them hide.
Also, despite being a youkai, she has barely any aura, which is a plus.
Some kind of incoherent plan is afoot, involving putting bad sandwiches on the ground so that people will eat them.
But wait! Someone's coming!
Remi's up early! Meaning, the sun is still slightly above the horizon.
Sakuya's fully healed now, too, meaning it's been a week since the previous chapter ended.
She's talking about a party she's planning! Perhaps this is what Marisa's invitation was about?
Meanwhile, Team Goofball watches invisibly from the sidelines! Sunny's power is pretty sweet.
Rumia can't resist snagging some food! Which is bad, because someone might notice that it's gone.
Like Sakuya, for example.
The fairies retreat, but the maid's suspicion is piqued...
In their escape, the team has ended up in the basement of the mansion!
What the hell is this place?
Sunny theorizes that it's a sealed door, beyond which is the demon lord of the castle hides the corpses of his murdered brides...
Luna points out that 1) Stop it, Sunny, this is creepy as hell, and 2) The lord of the mansion is a girl, so this doesn't really make any sense.
Rumia can't open the door! Meanwhile, Cirno gets an IDEA.
The fairies back at the lake don't believe that she actually came here, so what if she snagged some cool-looking jewel from this place as proof?
Star figures that, hey, there's bunches of them here, so they surely won't miss just one.
Jewel acquired!
While they're at it, might as well get one for Daiyousei, too.
While they were on their way out, Star thought she heard something... must have been her imagination.
It's the day of the party!
Looks like Marisa accepted the invite.
Reimu & friends are here, too!
I guess a party's a party.
Looks like we're the only human guests! The rest be mostly fairy maids.
There's some kind of commotion going on!
Some Mysterious Youngsters are being chased by an irate youkai.
It's Kurumi!
Remember that incoherent sandiwch plan from before? TOTALLY WORKED.
Alice points out that a normal person wouldn't eat a sandwich that was on the ground.
Chapter 12: Summer Home
Kurumi is enraged!
The three fairies flee to the right, while Cirno and Rumia kind of sit around on the left.
Kurumi summons a swarm of BokeBokes and Evil Eyes. Unfortunately, she seems to be having trouble controlling them!
One of them blows up a ham and melon snack near Reimu. It was the last one, too!
Our mission objectives:
-Destroy the out-of-control evil eyes!
-Take down those fairies!
Thes things are pretty weak!
The enemies are fighting amongst themselves! The goal is to keep them from getting KOs on each other, because that means I don't get the EXP or points.
The trick is to never hurt a mook if you can't kill them on the same turn, or Kurumi might finish them off for you!
So let's erase some freakin' mooks!
The fairies are in a jam, but they have a plan! Time to do what they practiced earlier!
Behold: The true combined power of the three fairies!
S FORMATION ATTACK GO
Not bad, not bad!
Marisa is impressed with the badassery of the fairies! Relatedly, she has something to talk over with Alice...
Keine then goes on to explain the Combination Attack rules. If two people have such an attack, get them into adjacent squares and then it will be available!
We'll have to wait to test it out, though, since their Power isn't high enough yet.
Doot de doot kill more mooks.
I've cleared the space around Kurumi, so my EXP is mostly safe now.
Keine mentions that she's developed a new spellcard Amaterasu, which attacks with the power of the sun! Badass and probably overkill for this map.
Down goes the last mook!
Now every remaining enemy has a name. Alice and Marisa will fight Cirno and Rumia, while Reimu and Keine take on the fairies.
Keine is very hard to hurt!
There's no kill like overkill!
PROTOMALICE ENGAGE
Woo!
The fairies require a bit more finesse - the bonus condition for this map is to defeat all three of them at the same time!
The first phase of the operation is to damage each of them, without defeating them!
Let's roll out our other new attack!
Light Sign - Amaterasu
Simple, yet effective! It's her new longest-range attack.
Okay, all three are damaged. Ready for phase 2!
Rumia defeated
PHASE 2 ENGAGE
Neat and complete!
Kurumi thanks us for helping her blow up little girls! Even if Reimu did it for cold-blooded food-related revenge reasons.
Once we're done making fun of Kurumi's weird eating habits, we can continue the party!
STAGE 12 CLEAR
Party's ending! Danmaku battle aside, or possibly included, everyone had plenty of fun.
There was plenty of food, so Marisa and Reimu are snagging some of the leftovers. Kurumi's off resting, says Alice.
Remilia is here to bask in praise of her awesome party! Apparently Sakuya made the food.
All of it.
Apparently some of the party still thought her ability was just teleportation!
Marisa thinks this is the shit and wants to see what Sakuya's up to while she's timestopped.
Sakuya is showing some interest in the people living in the forest of magic!
Marisa explains that she doesn't live outside the human village because she doesn't like the place. Reimu says that it's because she ran away from home to study magic.
Anyway, what about Sakuya? Her situation seems pretty strange, but she's not giving away any easy answers.
All right, so back we go, go the shrine to drink and stuff!
After poking around a bit at what she was talking to the humans about, Remilia suggests they head back, too. Party's over, after all.
Inside! The fairy maids have an infinite amount of work to do.
One of them feels the ground shake a bit. Was that an earthquake...?
Underneath the Scarlet Devil Mansion, something is starting to move...
