That rendition of the Devil's Recitation segment is probably the coolest part for me, because it's like the only attack in the entire series that straight up destroys the entire battlefield (if not all of Makai) and I feel like that never really happens in the window games from then onwards. So seeing that done in 3D is peak.
The reason why windows never has an environment-destroying danmaku is because danmaku battles during windows era are non-lethal and non-destructive because of the spell card rule. But back then, there's no spell card rule so the danmaku were dangerous and destructive.
If I were to weld together pieces of PC-98 and Windows canon, then the sheer destruction Shinki inflicted upon Makai with those unrestrained attacks would be a partial inspiration for Reimu's introduction of spell card rules. She doesn't want to allow a repeat of such destruction in Gensokyo.
It's so funny that back then she's such a happy go lucky optimistic child, now she's a grumpy 30s yo woman who solves everything with violences and threats
@runman624 someone pointed out in early windows reimu still was extremely cocky and smug it was slowly realising being the hakurei shrine maiden wasn't a prestigious or even well paying job that slowly wore her down
A little off topic, but... I just like how everyone in the comments instantly remembered Minust. Imagine being such a god in blender that literally every single soul in community knows you.
Absolutely peak. I really love the top-down shots that call back to the original game, and the progression of Shinki's expressions throughout the fight.
actually peak.... I never thought a character like Shinki would get the 3D danmaku treatment like minust's animations but I'm so glad that she did, you worked incredibly hard to make something so good, keep it up MTB!
Holy shied you actually weaved a story into the transitional phase of the music. Zun's peak piece plus your animation gets my heart feeling so emotional. Also good job on visualizing the actual bullet hell nature by switching from 3D to Top Down, absolutely helps refreshes and un-stagnates the action.
Nice to see Shinki get some love. Aside from Mima, i feel like shes the 2nd most desired character to return. I feel when Zun says "pc 98 characters are around" its him saying theyre not cannon, but he still wants to hold on to them because theyre his 1st borns or something lol.
The old adagé of his was that unless it interferes with current canon, everything in PC-98 still remains canon. If I remember correctly, there's like a near decade old interview from around when LoLK was released where he was asked about who was the most powerful entity in touhou that had been introduced, to which he said Shinki and Hecatia were the most powerful and around the same level. So at least her power is still relevant.
Weaving music and picture together in a way to provoke such emotion is difficult, but you pulled it off perfectly. Each segment is masterfully done, each little subtlety within the macroscopic scale of the fight only gives more weight to each moment. These moments build up, and eventually, a story is told. A story not of words, but of bullets. I got chills from how it all come together! ...All this to say, Genji is a king for saving Reimu. Truly the goat
Absolutely awesome work!!! I feel like you brought a ton of passion into a scene that I always play over in my head every time I think of Shinki's fight. Shinki is the coolest mom.
Shinki is the most misunderstood mom/satan since Mystic Square incident wasn't her fault at all, it was her idiotic people that she couldn't control because they did illegal things under her radar.
This is 100% absolutely raw as hell! Certifiably PEAK! Absolutely amazing! Makes me realize just how little chill Gensokyo's residents had back in the day, considering this isn't a Danmaku battle, this is a death match between exorcist and youkai.
The use of Jynx's rearranges, the sound effects, the facial expressions and model animations, the camera angles and special effects, everything about this is perfect
This was astounding work, definitely worth the wait. I don't think there are many animations featuring Shinki so this was really nice. Your stuff never disappoints man
I love how she gets hit on gummy worms. That was probably the hardest to attack to dodge when I was getting my 1cc, even moreso than her penultimate attack which I'd definitely iconic
I did not expect a Minus T inspired danmaku fight, but glad to see it in action. We have years of work polishing MMD animation come into fruition into a great fight scene.
Absolute Peak 👌 This was genuinely amazing, and a perfect representation of Lord shinkis might! She looks genuinely terrifying and that's a perfect encapsulation of how my experience was. Eitherway, you have done us all a service, and my gratitude apon shinki being awesome!
Leaving the AMAZING animation aside, i also loved wha you did with the music. It feels so good when the climax of song syncs with poweful attacks being casted
Wow para animarlo en mmd si que lleva su tiempo, no puedo imagimarme todo el trabajo que hay detrás, te felicito! Es una muy buena animación de combate! O como dirian en tu idioma: good job! Veo tus animaciones desde hace bastante tiempo y que bueno que por azares del destinó encontré tu canal ❤
Man. Mystic square was the first of the games that I've ever played of Touhou. And it was amazing, you wouldn't believe how happy it made me to see the same pattern of Shinki in TH12UFO. Thank you, Byakuren, thank you for taking me abck to that first time that I've beaten Shinki.
this was insane, the fight picking up was fantastic and you could really feel the intensity. i also liked the part with genji catching reimu and he holds the gohei in his mouth lol
Oh, THAT'S why you were fiddling around with the Genjii model! Great video as always. Purple Reimu is adorable, and it feels fitting since I always head-canoned the PC98 games as happening when Reimu was a child rather than a teenager/adult for the Windows games. The animation is insane, too. It can't have been easy to animate all the particles flying around, and that brief camera-flip where it went into a bird's eye view of the battle that looked exactly like the game kind of blew my mind. And oh my god, that ending! It felt like something out of a shonen, I swear to god when Reimu falls but Genjii catches her and Shinki gets mad- oh my god this is amazing
Damns, SHINKI IS BACK!!! is a hell of animation,real damn coool,is good to see something about Mystic Square , you did good with the people who help you with this
I can tell a lot of love and attention went into this so stellar job my friend. Also, it's hilarious seeing Shinki lose her sanity as she's being defeated by a child.
Truthfully, Shinki has always interested me more than Mima amongst the purely PC-98 characters. The creator deity of a demon world pushed so far into fury and beyond the brink that she inflicts collateral damage on the world and even has a weak final attack because she's blown so much unrestrained power in the previous attack. And I haven't even mentioned her possible connection to recurring cross-canon character Alice Margatroid, nor the fact that she could have been giving Byakuren Hijiri some company during those centuries of imprisonment by humans.

minusT would be proud
I hope MTB gets the attention he deserves watching this is like the same time I first found minusT's vids and broke down cuz of how epic they were
MMD vs blender 🔥
Tamest argument between travel agency manager and the customer.
It's more like illegal travel agency vs baron trump
so true
pc-98 era finally getting some attention it deserves
This is the first time I've seen a proper model of a Kid Reimu.

Ah, PC-98.. back when Reimu wasn’t constantly grumpy
It's so funny that back then she's such a happy go lucky optimistic child, now she's a grumpy 30s yo woman who solves everything with violences and threats
Hey man, she was young. Age makes people cynical at times, so you can't blame her that much
@runman624 someone pointed out in early windows reimu still was extremely cocky and smug it was slowly realising being the hakurei shrine maiden wasn't a prestigious or even well paying job that slowly wore her down

I love the pc98 attention, it’s always seemed interesting to me yet it gets such little attention compared to windows era stuff
"we have minusT at home"
MinusT at home:
Touhou GT/Daima
Absolutely peak. I really love the top-down shots that call back to the original game, and the progression of Shinki's expressions throughout the fight.
gotta love the pc 98 era
The start is great, but 1:39 onwards is absolute cinema 🙌
actually peak.... I never thought a character like Shinki would get the 3D danmaku treatment like minust's animations but I'm so glad that she did, you worked incredibly hard to make something so good, keep it up MTB!
the peak of the MTB mmd

PC-98 Reimu out here lookin' like a Dragon Ball character and I LOVE IT
Nice to see Shinki get some love. Aside from Mima, i feel like shes the 2nd most desired character to return. I feel when Zun says "pc 98 characters are around" its him saying theyre not cannon, but he still wants to hold on to them because theyre his 1st borns or something lol.

Seeing this makes me want to try out Mystic Square at some point. Nice work on animating this fight with Shinki.

One day Pc98 era will return to us 🥺
Peak. And Shinki gotta be one of my favorite characters.
This was astounding work, definitely worth the wait. I don't think there are many animations featuring Shinki so this was really nice.
Your stuff never disappoints man
Lovely work! As far as I'm aware this is the only animation of Shinki in a Danmaku battle on here.
I love how she gets hit on gummy worms. That was probably the hardest to attack to dodge when I was getting my 1cc, even moreso than her penultimate attack which I'd definitely iconic
I did not expect a Minus T inspired danmaku fight, but glad to see it in action.
We have years of work polishing MMD animation come into fruition into a great fight scene.
Pre-jaded Reimu is so kawaii.
Nice job as always, MTB-sensei.
Underrated character tbh.
animation so raw it makes me want to play Mystic Square to completion
it's even better when I'm nearly done with Artificial Dream in Arcadia
3:31 Now this is true bullet *hell*
Absolute Peak 👌
This was genuinely amazing, and a perfect representation of Lord shinkis might!
She looks genuinely terrifying and that's a perfect encapsulation of how my experience was.
Eitherway, you have done us all a service, and my gratitude apon shinki being awesome!
This is so peak
It REALLY cool to see PC98 stuff get animate like this
Young Reimu riding on Genji has big Dragon Ball energy.
2:00 you can almost hear the "you...DARE !!."
I can hear Darkseid's voice from that one animated DC movie
"You dare...?! *Activates attack* YOU DARE?!"
This is indeed a very Touhou animation. Also, Shinki is my favourite PC98 era character, glad to see her bossfight there.
Bro you cooked HARD. Hope this brings attention to one of the best character and fight in the series. Absolutely amazing.
Letting artists cook goes a long way
Wow.. an Absolute Masterpiece!!
awesome, amazing animation. Glad to so Pc 98 touhou in a new light like this.
THIS IS FREAKING AMAZING!!1!!!1!1!11!!!!
Utterly insane video, just perfect 😭
Finally a pc98 animation
Leaving the AMAZING animation aside, i also loved wha you did with the music. It feels so good when the climax of song syncs with poweful attacks being casted
Absolutely insane video! My respect for you. Such animated battles are critically lacking for Touhou fandom.
Funny that we're using Spellcard sounds when Spellcards were invented post PC98
Other than that though, extremely good crrrap ✨️
Absolutely Outstanding! I can really see all the hard work and detail. The expressions were incredible 🤤
Oooohhhh the whole thing was so damn hype! Using the Re Mystic Square version, the fight itself. Fantastic, superb video!
PC-98 games mentioned 🗣🗣📢📢🔥🔥
Bro did not have to go this hard, but they did
kino has arrived
I'm speechless.
Incredible work
that’s why spell card rules exist
Wow para animarlo en mmd si que lleva su tiempo, no puedo imagimarme todo el trabajo que hay detrás, te felicito! Es una muy buena animación de combate! O como dirian en tu idioma: good job!
Veo tus animaciones desde hace bastante tiempo y que bueno que por azares del destinó encontré tu canal ❤
the quality of this drives me insane. this is always how i imagined the battle with shinki went and its everything i could have wanted. holy fuck
Dude, you've got so good at animating. I can barely believe this is done in MMD
Amazing work! The character design and music of pc-98 touhou was so awesome and unique.
Man, it's so trippy seeing PC-98 but with Windows sound effects and music fonts, lol
This is ABSOLUTELY. INCREDIBLE!!!!
I loved the facial expressions 👍👍
Yo this is wicked sick, MTB! Don't see enough PC98 touhou content- let alone like this.
For a channel I mostly remember for the memes, this is pretty hype
I love seeing PC 98 characters getting animated
The animation and camera work is just peak 👌🏼😭
Man. Mystic square was the first of the games that I've ever played of Touhou. And it was amazing, you wouldn't believe how happy it made me to see the same pattern of Shinki in TH12UFO. Thank you, Byakuren, thank you for taking me abck to that first time that I've beaten Shinki.
The end really gave you the feeling of playing a Touhou game. You have no idea whats going on at that point
fantastic work, this looks amazing!
shinki in the thumbnail that's how you know it's peak 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
this was insane, the fight picking up was fantastic and you could really feel the intensity. i also liked the part with genji catching reimu and he holds the gohei in his mouth lol
PC-98 finally getting some much needed recognition
Oh, THAT'S why you were fiddling around with the Genjii model!
Great video as always. Purple Reimu is adorable, and it feels fitting since I always head-canoned the PC98 games as happening when Reimu was a child rather than a teenager/adult for the Windows games. The animation is insane, too. It can't have been easy to animate all the particles flying around, and that brief camera-flip where it went into a bird's eye view of the battle that looked exactly like the game kind of blew my mind.
And oh my god, that ending! It felt like something out of a shonen, I swear to god when Reimu falls but Genjii catches her and Shinki gets mad- oh my god this is amazing
She was a child during pc98. She turns teenager during touhou 6 and then aged a year each installment as time goes by
Yaaayy finally hereee!!
Damns, SHINKI IS BACK!!!
is a hell of animation,real damn coool,is good to see something about Mystic Square ,
you did good with the people who help you with this
Absolute Cinema 🤚😶✋
It seems shinki truly had a taste of the Mystic Square in the end...
The yin yang sky at the end was a nice touch
I think I've re-watched this a dozen times now, Mystic Square has been a favourite of mine for a long time.
Truely has given Shinki's battle justice.
I can tell a lot of love and attention went into this so stellar job my friend. Also, it's hilarious seeing Shinki lose her sanity as she's being defeated by a child.
damn that was epic
PEAK
this is amazing! good job!
As I said before in the Youmu vs Reimu, MTB is MinusT in MMD.
Windows Reimu is cool and all, but she ain't topping PC-98 Reimu being able to kick her Yin-Yang Ball like a badass lol
There's nothing more I have to say except *expertly fuckin crafted.*
Excuse me while I wipe the tears from my glasses
Thank you for giving more love to the pc 98 era
this feels like watching last episode of season 1 for the series.
素敵！この動画はMMD殿堂入りです！
I never imagined it quite this epically playing the touhou games 😆
This is awesome. I love the use of the low HP SFX.
LET’S GOOOOOO!!!
THIS WAS AMAZING!!!
NOW I WOULD TOTALLY LOVE TO SEE A PC98 REIMU VS MIMA IN YOUR STYLE!!!
KEEP BEING AWESOME!!!
Only one word:✨ _EPIC_ ✨
Truthfully, Shinki has always interested me more than Mima amongst the purely PC-98 characters. The creator deity of a demon world pushed so far into fury and beyond the brink that she inflicts collateral damage on the world and even has a weak final attack because she's blown so much unrestrained power in the previous attack. And I haven't even mentioned her possible connection to recurring cross-canon character Alice Margatroid, nor the fact that she could have been giving Byakuren Hijiri some company during those centuries of imprisonment by humans.
This is actually sick 😦 and seeing Genji makes me so happy! :D
INSANEEEEE!
This is awesome
WHOA MINUS-T COMPETITOR!!!
God bless you and your animations, also always remember to take breaks and don't burn your self out!
The infinite being, so powerful she blew up a part of makai during her fight
Great work on the Genji model!
HOLLLLYY SHITT BIG TURTLE 😱😱😱
holy shit this is awesome
It was... Freaking epic!
