The Nue theory is really silly and I have no idea why people actually support it, she was sealed underground long before UFO just like the Palanquin Ship. Proof? Nue to Reimu A: "The only reason I've been hiding for so long is because I was shut away underground!" There's no way she was the LLS Extra Midboss. If you really want to pin a name to the ball of light then it's way more likely to be the recently defeated Yuuka seeking a rematch against Reimu/Marisa.
Wait a second, Yuuka had an attack where she became a ball of light much like the midboss of this stage... Wouldn't it make a littttttle more sense if it was Yuuka instead? o3o
In UFO, the shining ball was nue, and the pc 98 one was just a mid boss, like the Lotus land story first stage mid boss, a big plant. Almost every pc 98 mid bosses are animated magic objects or a big fairy, I wish it could be like that for the next touhou game :(
the problem with it being Nue is that Nue was currently busy being trapped underground (which she'd only be released from right after the events of SA alongside the palequin ship)
@Kirakishou7 It would have been completely and utterly mindblowing and trolltastic if Nue had slipped in some remarks about fighting Reimu and Marisa before in another land, only they 've forgotten her.
@takulu64 Alice remembered her humiliation in the Mystic Square Extra End, and Yuka seems to hint at the good old days from her times in Lotus Land Story. Maybe Nue just didn't get a good look at either Reimu or Marisa.
ZUN; "I was going to use this as the extra stage theme. But I thought the extra stage song should be a little lighter, so I cried and cried and threw it out."
(During the process of making UFO) ZUN: Damn, all I need is an extra boss and I've run out of ideas. Maybe going back to my past works will inspire me. *goes back to LLS, sees ball of light* ZUN: *clicks fingers* That's it! A glowing ball! And that my friend, was how Nue was born.
actually the Nue theory simply doesn't work since Nue was busy being sealed underground (as mentioned in dialogue with reimu A) LOONG before the pc-98 era events

Not only would it make sense to be Yuuka- She's even BEEN a ball of light in one (or both?) of the fights!
yuuka's ball form was actually red not blue
Who's to say she was the real Nue? Since the fight takes place in the Dream World, it could very well be the dream version of her 😏
This song is used in the game Pump It Up but with lyrics (name of the song in the game is Reminiscence)
wtf that's a bloody ripoff
thats why im hereee
@@Sodium779 nah man. Pump it up Remix is actually good
but honestly. Both are good
This is soo dreamy~ This almost sounds like an ending theme, if not for the heavy drums.
Wait a second, Yuuka had an attack where she became a ball of light much like the midboss of this stage... Wouldn't it make a littttttle more sense if it was Yuuka instead? o3o
No it doesn't! That makes no sense at all!
...In my headcanon.

^ ten desires has an unnamed nonhumanoid midboss :^)

Epic!!
This is too amazing to put in words.

i like this more than the forbidden game
ZUN; "I was going to use this as the extra stage theme. But I thought the extra stage song should be a little lighter, so I cried and cried and threw it out."
I think this song would just as easily have made a great boss theme, especially for a Final/Extra boss.
Fantastic arrange.
If the theme is long, that's probably because Extra Stages are pretty long too.
But that's not a problem for me; I actually love long themes!
@takulu64 By the various player characters, I think. no wonder she became a shut-in dollcrafter.
...ahh
MAX - Reminiscence brought me here :)
Like both this one and forbidden game

ZUN: Damn, all I need is an extra boss and I've run out of ideas. Maybe going back to my past works will inspire me.
*goes back to LLS, sees ball of light*
ZUN: *clicks fingers* That's it! A glowing ball!
And that my friend, was how Nue was born.
Let's not forget Makai and Devil's Recitiation
@Kirakishou7 Hmm, well, UFO does have some more PC98 references, like Byakurens spellcard copying Shinki. ZUN's trolling knows no limits :)
Bad Apples... Strawberry Crisises... and now Magic Shops of Raspberries? XD
MAX - Reminiscence
Nue: "Peace, bro." XD
@Kirakishou7 that....actually makes sense...
did anyone notice it has similar melody as waka's bgm?
@takulu64 She got defeated and forced to be their maid, and dress up, and get tied up. Beat Extra End and see for yourself, lol.
1:40 2:00
but we dont know where the dream world is it my be close to the underground
@groudonsbest well Oota jun'ya really was an drunk but awesome fruitcake.......
Figures Nue knows Mugetsu and Gengetsu...
Or WAS she... who knows~
lol
So it was Nue who was the mid-boss glowing ball in th4
Yeah well that made more sense... but I like the Nue theory better.
actually the Nue theory simply doesn't work since Nue was busy being sealed underground (as mentioned in dialogue with reimu A) LOONG before the pc-98 era events
