Normal, Reimu A. Orin is not really that bad once you get used to her patterns. For the first and last boss card you move in circles around her to get the zombie fairies out of the way. The second one is smaller circular movement, and the third is horizontal dodging, you just have to remember to keep moving because the death wheels are aimed at you.
What difficulty? It took me ages to beat the game on Normal. Utsuho's really not that hard. It's Orin that makes me want to put my fist through a wall.
I came so close to a 1cc on SA last night. I was on Hells artificial Sun and then I died T_T
Ohh, yeah. Someone at Shmups forum made a thread about it. I already read the first chapter and it looks pretty good.

Nue is easily one of my new favorite characters. She reminds me a lot of Flandre, only darker. Her theme is so freaking awesome, too.
2 lasers! One is more than enough already D: Also Extra Boss replay is so beautiful. Nue's theme is so creepy and fitting for the fight. UFO attack go!
I still keep dying against Shou on Normal. Her second to last card uses two crossed lasers instead of the one you see in Easy. Download an Extra Stage Clear Replay so you can 1) witness how beautiful it is, and 2) listen to Nue's theme.
I got through on Easy the second playthrough. Just wanted to get a feel for the different spellcards.
I refuse to play Easy this time around. I've been playing long enough that I think that it's time for me to raise the bar for myself. That said, I've played a few rounds and I can only really make it partially through stage 5 on Normal. It's so crazy.
