UFO Stage 5 Theme: Rural Makai City Esoteria (RE-EXTENDED)
Музыка
The Stage 5 theme from Touhou 12: Undefined Fantastic Object
Gee Nazrin, how come ZUN let you have two game portraits?
I guess I never noticed before (or I've just connected the dots) but Nazrin and Shou have the same patterns, meaning the danmaku is created from the power of the pagoda - isn't that neat?
I haven't played this game in nearly 10 years but I still can't unhear the game sound effects as the main chorus plays. Even so, I think this theme is very regal-sounding, like a royal procession up to the boss. Given the theme's title, it's a shame the background doesn't represent more of a city like Beast Hell. In fact, I'm still not sure what it's meant to be...

My personal favorite UFO stage theme. This was a great way to naturally reintroduce Makai into the series.
I love how at the 0:41 part the enemy attacks sync up with the beats.

And who could forget the classic "Vrrrrn!" sound effects
One of the weirdest time signatures in a video game song I've heard, and that's exactly why I love it.

I kinda noticed that from the beginning, the whole pagoda thing. Love that Nazrin has a unique portrait for this stage just to make it more clear.
[The Little Dowser General] NAZRIN Race: Mouse youkai Ability: Finding sought-for items She's finally found the jeweled pagoda. Actually, she kept it a secret from Murasa that she was looking for it. Shou probably didn't tell anyone but her own underlings she'd lost something so important. ZUN's comment about th track: "This is the stage 5 theme. This is a song with irregular rhythms, but it's upbeat. Pretty Makai-ish. It gets pretty intense when you're listening to it with the sound effects from gameplay, so I hope you'll listen closely while playing. The name comes from the song having both a rural and an urban feel."
One of the best stage five theme. The start sounds intense before playing with the curvy lasers tiger boss. ( 0:41 also I though that part sounds like a cat hissing at someone XD )
This stage theme reflects very well the stage, the mysterious yet magical ambience of going back to makai after a long time without knowing what has happened in there since the last time.

Good old (6+5)/4 time signature changing into (5+6)/4
Makai? That place sure does sound abandoned!
This is why ufo has the best soundtrack in touhou
The best stage theme in the entire series imo
ZUN's art was so off back then that Nazrin looked like an entirely different person in stage 5.
This sounds epic and a little melancholic.
I really didn't expect, I was going back to this place!
this theme is always so magical
It's so strong even though it's very repetitive. UFO is very epic with that
Who here remembers the Touhou World Cup participants suffering at Nazrin?
WHOOOOOOSH
It's a stage 5 theme, it sounds great.

UFO themes are good!!
The dive-bomber orbs in this stage make the stage
Damn, I love this Stage 5 theme so much, one of my favorite even! I can't describe how amazing this track is, it's just amazing and magical! So grandiose This is a bit sad, because the actual stage is absolute garbage... DX
Too bad shinki hasn’t made her comeback.

Pretty sure it's technically 11/8 but I don't know how much that really matters
so SOMEHOW I didn't know this song existed well, I'm glad that got fixed today
tiger time :3
I like how Sanae is like : " I'll help you in reviving this Youkai Jesus but first let me exterminate you just in case". And then Shou is like: "Ok gurl "

Not really. The only thing that is similar to both songs is that they both have odd time signatures.
