Shmups are mostly pattern recognition, so once you get good at one Touhou game, it doesn't mean the rest come easy, unfortunately. You won't get lore through the games though because it's as cryptic as the Rosetta Stone.

@Webmaster

That's because you don't already have a foot in the door.
And it improves reaction times which helps in general. I'm slow as fuck and need to get better.

@DarkwolfX37

Could you clarify?
It does help, but overall, every game is going to be impossible on Lunatic until you have muscle memory.

Not even mad tbqhm9imobtw.

That episode was the best one of the tournament though.

@Webmaster

Knowing chunks of the lore before playing them.
Well yeah but hopefully I won't need to beat them on Lunatic.

You can learn the story by reading the wiki faster than playing the game.
Beating them on Hard instead? Or Normal? Or Easy? Easy is reasonable and still pretty hard.

@Webmaster

Yeah but that's not as fun. Plus you probably skipped the first 6 games that introduce the main char and all.
Whatever is needed to get every ending. Cause sometime on easy the characters will just insult you and tell you to go home.

@DarkwolfX37

I went straight to Imperishable Night because I wanted to beat that one on Lunatic—the story is a bit irrelevant to me. I was between 7 and 8, so I went with 7.

@Webmaster

100% agree. One of my favorites from Super in general, really.

@Heroic

Part of me wanted it to be permanent, but Goku reacted to the situation so appropriately, I thought the way they handled it was equally valid.

@Webmaster

You really should've started with 6, that's where the western fanbase came from, plus it introduced the most iconic characters.

@Webmaster

To be fair, three or more other characters used the ECW without dying when they were weaker than Roshi currently is. And Goku only reacted right because he was reacting out of character for the whole tournament to raise the stakes. "Don't let your guard down" "I won't" "Holy fucking shit this is the twentieth time we've told you STOP LETTING YOUR GUARD DOWN EVERY TWO SECOND YOU SUPPOSED MASTER OF MARTIAL ARTS"

Eh, I'm in it for the shmups, music, and fanart. And the games have terrible art anyway.

No argument here.

@Webmaster

Goku never acted so concerned about anything for the entire arc up to that point. And I don't think I recall a point when he was close to bawling even as far back as Z. It was so strange to see, but it made me feel even more tense. I was genuinely concerned, because Roshi dying there would have probably been a natural death, meaning no wish-backs.

@DarkwolfX37

I want some Tien and Vegeta spotlight please. And Frieza. If he's gonna be the Buu replacement, at least show him doing SOMETHING sometimes.

@Heroic

I saw some analyses on YouTube on the scenario (which I still haven't figured out why I'm watching), and they mentioned the possibility that it would fall under that. But Roshi already died from the Evil Containment Wave, which wasn't considered natural, so it's possible that dying from an overdone Kamehameha also would be wishable.

@Heroic

It's much more a callback to OG DB. He never felt that emotional about his own sons after all, but Krillin and Roshi are up there. It wouldn't have been a natural death but there's probably a rule in place that anyone who dies in the tourney gets erased that they just never mentioned. That would be in character for the Zenohs.
It's only like... 18 minutes into the fight, it's projected to be a 30 to 100 episode arc, so there's still plenty of time to pull in the others. I just hope the next arc is for Caulifla. They haven't even shown a couple of universes' teams at all yet.

Different balls. Roshi died when Kami was still around.
