I’ve talked before about how the Maribel-Yukari theory adds a lot to the Hifuu albums’ tone and atmosphere (ie. Ever-present, looming tragedy that takes place), but I think it also works really well in the reverse sense, too? Yukari Yakumo, the powerful sage, a youkai who once was human. (1/6)

🐧It is time... for a 🐧 FUMO GIVEAWAY 🐧

I am giving away a Nue fumo and two lanyards from @colorfulkitten.bsky.social on this platform. Both lanyards showcase the characters from every game with Nue!

To enter, all you need to do is repost this post! I will draw the winner on March 7th.

Holiday stuff delayed me writing, but I still want to give my thoughts on Magical Astronomy. I really enjoy it as an album, but also as an early part of Bougetsushou, and how it explores the interplay of contemporary Touhou and Hifuu’s usual commentary. (1/7)

Monday was the night for the Retrospective 53 minutes relisten; I've touched on the album on here before, but it's still such a good album that has a lot to say about art, how it’s used, and the difference between experiencing reality and its replication. (1/6)

Tonight we listened to Changeability of Strange Dream! I think the album is an interesting step in the albums’ early development—It develops more of the characters, the future’s setting and themes while using Touhou 6 and 8 as story backdrops. (1/5)

Started a Hifuu Album (Re)Listen-Along with two of my friends, one of which is new to the albums. Tonight, we did Ghostly Field Club! I think the album does a really good job at establishing Merry and Renko, as well as the Hifuu Club itself. (1/3)

Mokou is such a cool character? She’s my only EX Stage clear so far, but I really enjoyed how everything comes together to characterize her through the gameplay experience (Her themes, the constant deaths and revivals, her spellcards being themed around her backstory and immortality, etc.). (1/5)

As an addendum to my other post: These are the Hifuu things I currently own:

1) Pins from Lyrica Live's store (lyricalive.square.site)
2) Two Furyu Trio-Try-iT figures
3) Retrospective 53 minutes on CD (My favorite Hifuu album)

I want to get the phone strap plushies they just announced, too.

Considering the recent interview with ZUN, I’m appreciating the Hifuu albums again as works aware of their transience? From the implication that Merry will become Yukari to the state of the world, there’s a solid melancholy underpinning the albums which inform a sense of impermanence. (1/5)
