A run through the arcade/story mode of Seihou 2 - Kioh Gyoku. The Seihou Project is what is usually called the "sister of Touhou". It is made by the same team as ZUN was in during the pc98 era of touhou and zun even helped with the production of Seihou 1 and 2 (I'm not so sure about Seihou 3). It was mostly with the music, but some of the art is known to be drawn by him aswell. The gameplay of the Seihou games is kind of like touhou, but more like the type of less-but-faster bullets. An interesting treat for touhou fans is the touhou characters appearing in seihou 1 and 2 as cameos.
This game plays like the phantasmagoria games of the touhou series and it is fun, but short. Unlike the phantasmagorias, graze is used here to charge the special meter. Sadly it doesn't have that many working modes, there's only one difficulty setting and replays can't be saved either.

The character used here, Muse, is one of my favorite characters to use as well as play against (until boss Muse reaches the top levels, then it becomes a nightmare). She is powerful and AI-destroying, so she's also among the easier ones to use for clearing the game. I made the mistake of using the level 3 attack alot here, which may be good against other players, but against the AI, Muses level 2 and level 4 attacks are way superior, mainly for the cross spam.
Story-wise, Muse is a puppet master, cross thrower, vampire, alchemist magician who is part of an organisation to merge magic with science. (Sounds familiar to any touhou character?)

Note that I had problem recording the sound of Seihou for some reason, so I added the BGM in myself.
