Yeah, Gametal is more of a general coverer and he's only done a handful of 2hu songs. The ones he did do are great though. RichaadEB's covers actually variate quite a bit from the originals so you might want to check some of the newer ones out to see if your opinion on it might change. I'll have to check out the chaosangel guy. Is his channel still up?

It is still up. And if the newer covers sound different now I could give it a look some time.

Do you have a link that I could see?

I think I just typed in Touhou 15 Normal 1cc.
I also saw video where someone skipped the fight entirely. Like he kind of timed a bomb before the boss spawned and skipped the whole fight.

lol that sounds pretty funny. What happens to the final boss? Did the protagonists figure it out?

It's more like the villain finally gets things to go the way he wants and the story is allowed to continue into the third game. Then it gets really garbled.

I just like Lunatic Eye's main riff a lot. I think it's very touhou-ey. She has a very good remix in ULIL too.
My problem with Shou is that her theme just sounds like a wild/generic trainer Pokemon battle. They're fine for Pokemon but I generally expect more elegant themes and catchier melodies from ZUN.
Lol UFO's stage 1 is one of the best stage 1 themes so that's to be expected. I could hear it in my head instantly despite having not heard it in years. I just went and checked Nazrin's theme but I don't think hers is that bad though. I think Shou and Nue's stages are much better than their boss themes. I really like Romance in the Sky while I've mentioned I'm not very fond of Nue's theme at all.

I don't think Shou's meant to be that graceful. She has a guy's name, has a tiger motif, instead of using her own abilities she uses one of the magic treasures' power and has her minion do the same thing. It all takes place in Makai while the opponent team is getting really close to succeeding in their mission too. I don't mind the song choice.
UFO's extra stage theme is good for being unique too. Feels faster paced than all the other extra themes and goes really well with the miniboss fight. With the others it's like you're at a temple or building and are just slowly moving to a certain room, with UFO it's the whole sky and you're going fast until you catch up with the blue light so that's cool.

I think Nue's final card isn't as eye breaking as Byakuren's final card. My memories are coming back and I recall actually getting a bit woozy trying an entire hour with the spell practice patch to capture it while I caught Nue's final card in 10 or so minutes.

Oh yeah that's a bad one. Lots of health, bombs don't clear the screen. I used to wonder if there were strategies where you could delay your shots to mess with the way the new projectiles spawn in and make it easier.
