Yep, we all went back here after seeing part 2. And part 1 is as gorgeous as we remember it. Here's to more years of beautiful Touhou. MinusT You Are A Freaking LEGEND!

霊夢の常に余裕のある圧倒的な強さを見せながらもどこか魔理沙相手の時だけは本気になりかけている様な表情 魔理沙の大技起動前の度に入る一瞬のタメから一気に放つ際にスペカ名を叫んでいるかの如き動作 (よく見ると霊夢は各スペカ起動を一瞬に等しい高速で展開するのに対し魔理沙は必ず予備動作が入る点もミソ) 雲を掴む様な天才『空を飛ぶ巫女』と工夫と技術の努力家『普通の魔法使い』主人公同士の弾幕決闘というシリーズ屈指の名勝負 美麗な弾幕も含めその全てに命を宿らせたといっても過言ではない作品愛に溢れた素晴らしい動画でした。

Parents: “aww look how cute they are playing together!” What the kids see:

この人のミニ八卦炉の解釈マジで好き

It's kind of crazy how MinusT has been doing this for almost 10 years. The animation just keeps getting better and better!

0:27辺りで、紫がスキマから出て来た時に、アリスが警戒して手に魔力かなんかを込めてるのが細かくて好きです🙏🙏

4:06 ブレイジングスター用の外付け八卦炉を分裂させてダブルスパークを撃つシーン天才すぎる

霊夢ってホント強いんだなって思ったし、魔理沙もほぼ互角に戦ってる辺り 霊夢に見劣りしがちだけどめちゃくちゃ強い魔法使いなんだって改めて感じさせられる…すごく好き(語彙力)

I love the little hand motions Reimu does before she summons her barriers.

It's rare to bring the community together like this for something other then a new game. First off, You should feel proud. Second, thank you for this.

I love the non-euclidean nature of some of Reimu’s attacks. It just gives off that latent power vibe, never fully realised as Reimu hasn’t found the need nor care to master it.

I just realized something. At the end, Marisa and Reimu are both saved by their teammate's bombs after their last move. In the game, this actually can happen. If you bomb an instant after getting hit, your teammate uses theirs to save you. In other words, by spell card rules, Reimu and Marisa pulled a double-kill on each other! Again, only just noticed this detail, and I think it's so cool that was put into the animation!

Touhou will never die, one of the most soulful series there is with an incredible fanbase to boot

3:56 引きで原作っぽい風景を見せてくれるの美しすぎる

3D東方…MMDにしてはサムネがらしくないな… とか思いながら初めて見た時の衝撃とかワクワク感は忘れられない(しかもblenderだし) 2:45 が永夜抄に無い陰陽鬼神玉なのすき

投稿された日から何度も見てるけど2:48からのシーンが好きすぎて いつも3:04で感極まって泣いちゃう 魔理沙が息吐いてよし…!みたいにしてるの完全に生きてるし あのタイミングで曲が変わるの天才すぎる😭

I'm so happy to be alive to see these masterworks

今までとは異なって自機組同士の戦いだったけど違和感を感じないどころかめっちゃ綺麗にかっこよく弾幕ごっこしていて感動した！そしてあの終わり方、、、次回も神作になる予感、、、

少額ですが、深謝と応援の念を込めて、送信させて頂きます。

I really appreciate the perspective here. Highlighting Marisa's responses through the fight really makes me root for her. She puts the most work into this fight, and I feel that is reflective of how her character is played in the games. As much as I love Reimu, she is the easiest to play and kinda expected to win lore-wise. The work Marisa puts into defeating Reimu's homing danmaku, and cornering Reimu near the end of the fight with earthlight rays(?) is a lot more technical than Reimu's mostly auto-homing style attacks she chooses to use here. Think this reflects the technical difficulty at least I feel when play as Marisa as opposed to Reimu. Also appreciate the glimpses we have of the youkai. Love that Alice's immediate reaction to seeing Yukari is to throw down, and Yukari's response is just 'hi!' Think these two used this opportunity to study the humans' fighting style for future fights. As an aside, I am using this video to demonstrate visual storytelling to my students. Hope to pass the Touhou torch on to future generations.

God, this is just... gorgeous. The re-interpretations of spell cards in 3D space are amazing alongside re-imagining spell card duels as super high-intensity dogfights. I also enjoy the detail that none of the surroundings were damaged, because the spell card rule system prevents damaging the environment.

MinusT’s work is always a lovely highlight of the Touhou community, I can’t believe how lovely this looks! It’s so awesome seeing the improvements between each video, and they’re all absolutely incredible!!!

0:59 that "come at me bro" gesture Reimu gave, love it. at 5:00 When Reimu took that hit, she dropped her Gohei as the next scene when she appears she was no longer carrying it. Going through frame by frame in that sequence, there was a single frame where you see the Gohei fly towards the screen at 5:02 ... Also like to mention the shape of Marisa's broom, it's designed to be a flying apparatus, not a cleaning instrument. And notice that Reimu's does that "T" pose when casting spell cards as the pose in this context is a sign of religious divinity, a miko of the Hakurei Shrine.

今更だけど魔理沙が弾幕同士の相殺を連発して、霊夢がほとんどせずに 避け続けてるってことに気づきました。当たり判定とか関係してたら･･･ すごいですよね･･･わかんないけど･･･

Based on concept alone, this confrontation opens tons of possibilities since you have both the "boss" and "player" moveset to work with and the execution is absolutly fantastic. Thank you for this amazing work.

It's crazy to think how his modelling and animating skill has improved drastically, i still remember watching the Reimu vs Remilia vid. It wasn't bad but it is impossible to compare with this masterpiece. The lighting, the movement of the characters, the camera angle, their expression has become more and more fluent and human-like over the year. This is probably the peak of 3d animating.

What I like about this is that had Yukari and Alice not intervened at the end, this would have certainly been a double knockout. This is despite the fact that this is almost certainly an animation from Marisa's PoV. Mostly because Marisa is essentially showing way more emotion, and we get more close ups of her face in regards to her plans and tactic throughout the fight.

I love that from the intensity of the magic circles at 5:47, you know well that it's a final spark

Everytime MinusT drops a video is like how it is with a Marvel movie now, it's a reunion of all the fans but for Touhou!

_"Now is the time, two titans meet, as it was written"_

霊夢は本編通りラストワードの弾幕を使って無いけど魔理沙は使うことで追いつけている感じが好き。

4:06 the way Marisa baited Reimu into the Double Spark is just so satisfying. amazing animation minust!!

can we take a moment to appreciate this man's cinematography. Some of these frames could be literal wallpaper

5:18 the little finger twitch as Marissa takes a fraction of a second to think about her next move is my favorite little touch - I do it too

I love so many little details. Reimu uses her Fantasy Seal (2:31). Marisa uses her Shoot the Moon spellcard (3:51). You can see that the illusionary moon is crumbling (5:22). And at the end when they're interrupted, Reimu is just kind of put off like, "Oh, already?" (6:04) while Marisa is downright angry their duel was stopped (6:07). There's so much heart and intensity in your work that just watching it unfold made me fight back tears. Thank you for sharing your beautiful labor with us.

''弾幕の美しさで競う''をここまで表現している事が本当に素晴らしいです 初期からここまでの作品を見てきましたが、新作が出る度細かな部分を含めたクオリティが上がっていくのが凄すぎます…

ものすごく、引き込まれていく、7分間がこんなにも短いなんて

props to the camera man for grazing all of those attacks

The scene of Marisa using blazing star to destroy the moon sized ying yang orb gives me goosebumps 2:49

これは確かに東方projectの作品であり、作品の詳細を知っていれば確実に面白く感じられるでしょう。これは素晴らしい作品です。 でも、この動画の1番恐ろしい点は、その3Dアクションの完成度です。恐らく、東方projectを知らなくても、誰もがこの動画に感動するでしょう。これはとんでもない作品です。

Beautiful! I can't imagine how much work and attention this requires. So impressive!

Honestly, part 1 is already amazing. Doesn't really matter how long it'll take for part 2, I've waited years and I'm sure that I'll wait a decade more for animation this fuckin good.

一作品目から見てますがどの作品も技術レベルが高すぎて、ずっとファンでした！TwitterのBlenderの切り取りとかPVとかでもう神作の予感しかしないので楽しみにしてます！

主人公同士お互い容赦してないの好き

The more u watch this, the more you realize how much work has gone into each and every bullet. All bullets form a beautiful pattern of things like the atoms star universe and so on.

"When in doubt, always use master spark" -Marisa

7 minutes isn't really long, but we all know how hard minusT worked for every second of this masterpiece, it's worth waiting for 3 years. We'll get a long way before part 2, but I desperately hope we can see Kaguya someday (in part 3, maybe?)

Fantastic work, looking forward to the next one !

Thanks!

I know its a masterpiece already before i watched it

touhou is one of the most dedicated and talented fanbases i have ever been in.

There's a lot of little things that truly take this animation to a very high level, but it would take too long to list them all so I will stick with two I like the most: 1. The way this is portrayed is like a battle, with both participants fighting with a lot of strategy. Most of the attacks they use either have fast projectile speed, homing or have some method of restricting movement so that the opponent has to find a way to evade most of the attack, which is really amazing. 2. I really like how you are giving screen time to all of the playable characters. It gives every character a chance to shine, and encapsulates the feeling that this is basically how things generally go in this world.

天才と努力家の集約された弾幕ごっこが此処にある。って感じで最後までこの世界観に引き込まれました。

I love the way this is animated. Each and every attack is so faithful it makes me wish a 3D first-person Touhou game existed. The cinematography captures the intense energy and atmosphere of the action so well, on par if not better than a lot of mainstream anime action sequences. It's amazing how you strike that balance between speed and readability. Unlike scenes like in Dragonball, where speed is communicated by people moving so fast you can't possibly see them, you manage to take the viewer along and show each and every action and reaction, as though the viewer themselves were in the place of Reimu or Marisa, without losing that sense of speed and intensity. Too many action scenes resort to slow-motion shots that usually, when done wrong, kill all momentum in the scene. I hope you never stop making animations. I look forward to your next project!

Oh man why hasn't someone given this guy a team and some millions dollars already. This is better than 99% of Hollywood "action" film in the last decade.

WHEN IS ZUN HIMSELF GOING TO SEE THIS!? This is the most amazing fanwork I’ve ever seen. Infinite/10.

I find that Reimu's homing amulets are sometimes scary. Their pattern may not be as beautiful as other characters' spellcards but they are extremely annoyed to dodge.

I have always had fantasies about being able to do what these girls do, there's just so much beauty in their spell cards, and this animation helps bring it out! Fantastic work as always; keep it up!

It's crazy how faithful this is to the actual game, was literally just going through Touhou 8 last night. Can't wait for this to be continued!

I love how Alice was about to shoot Yukari but she was just flexing her Rolex

Once again, Amazing

3:33 地面に向かって垂直加速するシチュエーションと所作が最高にキまってる 一体何をどんだけ呑んだらこうなるんだ

この人が妹紅戦を見せてくれるまで死ねない、、

私この方の追尾型の弾幕から逃げる構図→それを破壊する構図がめちゃくちゃ好きなんです…(2:18、5:21辺りとか) 途中で曲が強制的に変わったり、弾幕バトル中にチラチラと月が映ったり竹の中を掻い潜ったりするのが細かくて感動します🙏😇 3:01ここのシーン、フラン戦の時と比べると物凄い成長を感じる…(語彙力) 3:05ここロック画面に設定したい位格好いい スピードが速過ぎて目で追えなかったり、二人の弾幕の濃さで脳が情報過多になったり…😇脳が理解する前にどんどんシーンが切り替わって行くのが二人の本気度が滲み出てて最高でした…🙏🙏🙏

遂に来た…!!!! ずっとずっと楽しみでした…!!完成本当におめでとうございます!!💕

Can't wait! Hyped up ever since the teaser from the end of the Koishi fight. Its time to put on the suit and enjoy this spectacle! Thank you MinusT for another banger 3D Touhou animation! Edit: Just finished and holy shoot that was amazing. From the music to the camera angles, to the dynamic shots. We sleeping happily mates. Now we shall wait for Eternal Night 2. Cheers!

I just searched Reimu vs Marisa for some fun battle videos and found this. The animation is truly stunning. You can make a whole Touhou fanmade movie out of this. Subscribed on first watch.

永夜の報いに少女綺想曲と恋色マスタースパークが入ってて好き 戦闘も激しさ増してて凄い ゲームでこんな感じにできたら楽しそう

There's so much tiny details in the animations and spell details that I'm utterly awestruck. I love how at 1:38 Marisa literally has what looks like a black hole in the center of her spell, recreating a literal Event Horizon for her spell card I love the way Reimu's Yin Yang Orbs at 5:12 move and rotate like there's actual weight in them Marisa's Hakero's parts and components, and the way they reassemble themselves for her Double Spark The way despite how even this fight seems, Marisa's character as the hardworking underdog vs the naturally talented Reimu is plain to see That visible frustration of Marisa at 2:52 where she had to bust out her trump card so soon. Even more frustration of Marisa at 5:17 when she realized Reimu still had another trump card up her sleeve. It's all so amazingly done. This has been an amazing 7 mins of my life. Thank you MinusT!

One could really feel the intensity of the spellcards, while the expression of danmaku still was captured perfectly. There are many little details and the characters feel alive. Simply Masterful animation.

I love how minusT decided to draw this match, because every Reimu Marisa match fight i saw, reimu always win.

“Touhou, because G-force doesn’t exist as long as you believe it doesn’t.”

Good to be with you Guys seeing this amazing animation, I want to say that I am very proud to be part of this community, MinusT pls never leave us, you will inspire future generations to make this LEGENDARY animations, Zun-san will be proud of you I know that, you will always have my respects forever and ever, thanks minusT for this and thanks to Zun and the Touhou Community, let's show this animation the love that it deserves and take care

From this very day, I'm still so excited to see Minus-T animation, his models and effect are so clean! My favorite part is whenever anyone using their spell card/bullet hell it's so beautiful to look at, it's like wallpaper material xD

The effects in these has got to be done in the same “genius-like” flair that Monty Oum has. I say this with the highest respect. Even if there weren’t flying anime girls flying, the beautiful and intricate bullet animations would still draw a crowd.

seeing the chat explode at marisas blazing comet was the best

Seeing Reimu's spellcards as a Marisa fan that has died to it countless times was so satisfying to watch 🥲

the speed and tension in this one was unparalleled, and the distrust and rage between the character animations were very clear!! shame we'll have to wait a long time for the next one, Another incredible work, as always!!

弾幕を立体的に、しかも美しく表現されていて感動しました。 流し見のつもりが目が離せなくなりました。

4:06 marisa quite literally switched from normal to lunatic difficulty, that's fucking beautiful

現段階で何十回と見返していますが、本当に美しい3Dアニメーションですね。 音楽とも相まってほんとに最高でした！！

Source Film Maker animation will never be as good as Blender animation, this is an absolute bloody masterpiece!

Yukari at 0:32: "Oh, would you look at that, it's boss fight o'clock again."

很感動! I am being moved to tears

For someone who played touhou 8 as their starter game, this was a treat to see and my got by favourite overall thusfar. Also the biggest head bop to love coloured magic I've heard in ages!

ずっと東方ファンでいて良かった。minusTさんのファンでいて良かった。 こんなご時世でも、こんなに楽しくて、こんなに先が楽しみな作品に出会えて本当に感謝！！！

Yukari was really like "so... do we tell them that they are on the same side?"

Every time minusT releases a new video, I just have to go back and watch the others. I love how I can instantly recognize these spellcards even in this 3D rendition, even if its been several years since I've played the game in question. They stay with you.

2022 ain't that bad after all, Thank you so much for bringing us this action, adrenaline packed animation. I really enjoyed it a lot!

Reimu, Marisa , you two had shown me the most epic spellcard battle ever. That was amazing!!!!! And praise minusT , for the absolutely stunning recreation of their spell cards from touhou 8!!!!

0:56からの霊夢の弾幕展開するときの動作が好きすぎる

best 7 minutes of my life haven't seen anyone comment on it yet, but Marisa's hand trembling at 5:18 and she grips it again as she strengthens her resolve, subtle and sublime storytelling

0:56 ここ好きすぎる

Touhou is the greatest thing I’ve ever known that has almost all female characters in it, and is still so intriguing, even after so many years. This will be *_QUITE_* the spectacle!

7分間ずっと魅入ってしまいました！！！！ 後半の盛り上がりがとてもすごくて鳥肌が立ちました！2人とも譲らない戦いでめちゃめちゃ夢中になってしまいました！！ ずっと興奮しっぱなしでしたし、今も余韻がすごいです……！！！ 特に2:55 辺りからが本当に好きで、突き破る瞬間の盛り上がりもそうですが、その前の魔理沙の決意したような表情から、とてつもなく大きなものに直面する勇気と決意を見ることができて、本当にそれが大好きです...！！！！ しかもそのスピードをコントロールし、弾幕を避ける魔理沙の技量がすごくてめちゃくちゃかっこいいです……！、！ 博麗の巫女に追いつくことができる技術から多くの努力をしたんだろうなと思えて、勝手に感動してしまいました...；； 4:06 本当にここからの盛り上がり方が大好きです！！！もう書ききることができないし語彙力が無くなるしで本当に最高の作品です！！！ 技量も本当にとてつもなくて、もう恐ろしいくらいです… 東方を本当に愛していて、映像に対して相当な努力と時間を注がなきゃこんな最高で素敵で神な作品は出来ないです！！！本当に凄すぎて…こんな言葉じゃ収まりきらないくらいに凄いです…！！！！！！ こんなに世界観に浸れる作品はありません...！！！大好きです！！！！！

ちゃんと笹が散ってるのが凄い 特に4:52のシュート・ザ・ムーン
