YMMV / Touhou A Live

• Awesome Music: Just as with the game it was based off of, the soundtrack can be considered exceptional. Here is the full playlist.
• Hilarious in Hindsight:
  • It’s highly unlikely the developers read it, but the parts of Mima’s chapter that aren’t taken from the original game remind one very much of The Sword of Good.
  • Sammo was renamed Hong in the original game's remake. Guess what Meiling's surname is.
• Moral Event Horizon:
  • Yukari basically allowing her Sackhead Knights to do as they wish on a captured Yuka. And the scene all but implies torture^* Touhou Mother had this, too, but only as a Shout-Out to Metal Gear Solid and rape. Keep in mind this is after Yukari starts a war that claims countless innocent lives, and orders the slaughter of her own people, just so that she can be the unquestioned ruler of both Gensokyo and Makai, and make humans fear youkai again.
  • Marisa faking her death and usurping the ruler of Makai solely to escalate the war, and then killing Reimu in cold blood after being defeated, solely due to envy. She doesn’t have Straybow’s role for no reason.
• That One Boss: REI-IJI (Shang chapter). Her attack CARNAGE can deal over 200 damage, leaving you with a scrap of health. (You have 270 HP.)
• The Woobie: Poor Reimu witnessed homicide, betrayal, was forced to kill, and before she dies to Marisa's last spiteful beam, cries that the world should just end.
