Legit OPNA cover of Keiki Haniyasushin's theme from Wily Beast and Weakest Creature.

Let's start this off by saying I didn't really wanted to cover this theme when I first heard it. While i thought it was really catchy I didn't pay much attention to it, instead focusing on the Stage 5 and Extra Boss themes, which are still on my top 3 of the OST, along with the Stage 1 theme. Idolatrize world is definitely a close fourth tho, otherwise I wouldn't be making this lol.

But about 2 weeks after the game's launch I made the intro of this, mixing it up with elements from Complete Darkness, because... both characters are from hell and their themes' intros have the same chord progression. But I ended up leaving it aside and making a SiivaGunner rip of Complete Darkness instead.

But a few days ago I managed to beat Touhou 17, and I got the inspiration boost to do it, because well... final bosses themes sound much better when you have the tension of facing and beating them! (remember me saying I'd cover Junko's theme? It'll still not happen because of this lmao) So I pulled out an all-nighter to finish this.

Phew, that was a long description. This arrange and video involved more people than just me, so let me thank everyone here:

- ShinkoNet for making the MIDI I used to consult some of the fast notes and other things I couldn't get by year
- Pigu/pigdevil2010, for the (currently) abandoned fm arrange that inspired some of the decisions I made for this cover (notably the pause between the intro and the first verse)
- AxeBane, for the hardware recording of the track
- Yoki, Terraformer9x, Silent Sinner In Scarlet, -Tom-, for help and resources with the PC98 mockup
- ~~And You for listening~~

.... I'll get to Nightmare Diary, sorry for taking so long...

Ok I think that's all, thanks for reading all of this!
