Touhou 6: Embodiment of Scarlet Devil | Extra Stage [Reimu A vs. Flandre Scarlet]
Date of Completion: July 2, 2020
My Difficulty Estimate: 7/10
I was planning on beating this as one of my first extras, but it ended up being one of the last ones. I don't have vpatch installed until before I beat this. I did rebeat this with Marisa B but I ended up using Reimu A for the extra anyways.
The stage is pretty balanced. The first half is harder than the second half because you don't start at full power unlike the newer ones. Its a bit harder in terms of dodging but its not that significant of a difference.
Patchouli comes back as the midboss and her spells aren't that bad. Her first spell is quite hard but I can still dodge it easily. The second spell is definitely memorization. I didn't had a hard time doing it though. Her last spell is pretty tough. 5 different attacks to worry about.
Flandre is surprisingly fun. Her nons are really easy to dodge. Although some of her spells requires memorization, they are still tough to do.
1. Taboo "Cranberry Trap" (3/10)
- This is actually confusing at first, but I learned how the bullets work and managed to find a strategy for it. Its static but it is aimed at you.
2. Taboo "Lavatein" (3/10)
- Another static spell. Pretty easy but can be difficult especially with Reimu. The second wave is the hardest since I have difficulties moving diagonally to the left, and its more angled than the third one.
3. Taboo "Four of a Kind" (5/10)
- She summons 3 clones of herself that just shoots bullets like normal. It does get hard later. Its a good thing that you can kill the clones with a bomb. The real Flandre is still immune though.
4. Taboo "Kagome, Kagome" (5/10)
- Almost a static spell. Its a normal dodging spell, but the problem is when you get trapped by the big bullets she aims at you. The bullets can get cluttered and become really tight to dodge.
5. Taboo "Maze of Love" (6/10)
- Its obvious. You just go in circles. The problem is it comes at you so fast and its quite hard for me to go in circles. I think its also static, at least with the paths.
6. Forbidden Barrage "Starbow Break" (5/10)
- I heard there's a safespot for it but its still possible to die there, so I didn't risk it. This is a normal micrododging spell. Its just really hard because there's a lot of bullets that go in different speeds.
7. Forbidden Barrage "Catadioptric" (3/10)
- Pretty easy spell. The only thing you need to worry is the random bullets that comes after the big bullets, but it shouldn't be that bad.
8. Forbidden Barrage "Counter Clock" (4/10)
- The rotating lasers are static. What makes this hard is the bullets that comes after it. They are aimed so you can have some strategies for it but its only the second time I got there so I dodged it normally.
9. Secret "And Then Will There Be None?" (4/10)
- Its not that hard. You can get unlucky at the first part by getting walled. The rest of the spell is easy, but can get hard at the last second.
10. Q.E.D. "Ripples of 495 Years" (5/10)
- This spell isn't that hard, unless you get trapped or you bombed. Bombing the spell makes this spell harder by making the bullets move and spawn faster. Dying doesn't do this, but I just chose to bomb since I still have a bunch of bombs.

Someone once told me that beating Flandre as Reimu A wasn't possible, good to know that's false!

Its possible to beat anything with any shottype, as long as you're skilled enough. I do find beating this extra with reimu easier than with marisa.
