      In the game it’s being stated that her ability is more of a “making sure NOTHING occurs “ this way she prevented and distorted Yachie plans and behavior or manipulating enemies so they can do nothing about something.

    gotta love that no one can decide whether this song uses vocal samples or an erhu. personally i've never heard an erhu played at such a high range that sounds like that (i mean, just listen to biten's theme) - when i heard this song for the first time, it instantly made me think of the type of heavily embellished vocal runs you hear all over carnatic music, which was super exciting - i love seeing indian music getting repped

    THE VOCALS ARE SO GOOD, i legit was caught off guard when i heard them for the first time
    EDIT: there seems to be some confusion on whether or not the song actually uses vocals or an erhu. it actually uses both, the vocal samples are part of a digital instrument pack called Mongolian Voices - Ancient Phrases by sonuscore, just pitched differently.

    Zanmu was really an amazing final boss. Zun has been on a roll with the final bosses of his games. Dude is on the 19 instailment of the series and still giving us fresh and super interesting characters. Zanmu's calm personality, mixed with her implied strength and the amazing theme really stood out to me. When the vocals/erhu hits I was like "ohh wow, this woman is going to destroy me, isnt she?" and bam, nailed between her infernal blue spears. These kind of boss fights is why I love touhou so much

      @kr3533 7 місяців тому +2

      @@MrCake-ic6hn Yeah, but I was thinking that as Zanmu is already in hell and is basically inmortal(Or at least whith an infinite life-span) she can be inmune to the border of life and death, and also taking a look into the Touhou Wiki, while Yukari can try to find a border to OKKO Zanmu, she is able to manipulate Yukari with her nothingness, making Yukari not willing to fight or to make any strategy(Similar to Yachie but worst), she could also make Yukari unable to teleport with gaps, as Yukari is basically making gaps between one place and another in a completely blank space(Therefore, a place in the middle pf the nothing). So, if Yukari is not able to escape and nlt able to fight at all, I think that Zanmu, with some caution, can at least give Yukari some real troubles xd
      And yeah, I also don't understand how Hecatia and Yorihime can defeat someone like Yukari, my best interpretation is that there is a difference between a character's power force and their strength, because for example, Seiga has a pretty broken ability(Bein able to reverse anything), but she is considered among the weakest Youkais. So I think that is what it means(?

      @@kr3533 I shall try to defend Hecatia. Hecatia's ability is to have 3 bodies, which doesn't seem powerful at all until you realize what it means for a Japanese god to have a body. So before everything in the Touhou verse there was nothing at all and the gods decided to name everything allowing it to exist. Naming something brings it into existence and borders it into existence. Once the gods are given a name through faith or some other power their true form changes to an idea that exist across existence. This means for Yukari to defeat a Japanese God she will have to completely get rid of the concept of whatever the name relates to. Im not sure if she can actually do that but if she can that only gets rid of a part of the primordial form. The true form of the gods were nameless beings meaning their actual form didn't exist as an idea meaning there is no boundary for Yukari to erase at all. That's covering the gods and Hecatia is stated to be the strongest in the verse. Sorry for making a general summary on why she can't beat the Japanese gods I'll focus on Hecatia now.
      She's not a goddess of a specific concept but rather has a bunch of names attached to her that all lead to Hell. Not only that she's a goddess of the Earth, Moon, the Otherworlds. My interpretation of her 3 bodies its more than just that it's allowing her to use all 3 of the goddess attributes she has. Meaning she can change her very concept when she changes her globe on her head and can use the powers of each concept. Oh yeah her core does reside in hell, but because she's a goddess of all of the Otherworld's hells it's an infinite amount of hells it could be in. She can change her concept before Yukari can change it, access Yukari's dimension if it counts as a Otherworld, and can pretty much warp the reality of the Earth, Moon, Otherworlds, and every hell associated with it. That everything I can think of.
