I really like how there's a lot of climactic sort of stingers littered around Chimata's boss theme. It's as if it's trying to convey how Chimata herself is starting to wither away, but simply refuses to disappear for good. Even the music's conveying that, it feels like at some points it's going to end prematurely, but it keeps trucking along. It's great, I love it. Really does feel like she's trying her best to stay alive.

Chimata is a very tragic story indeed. She is not fighting to wipe out the impure or drive out beasts, she is fighting for her own survival as the ever-changing world is geared against her existence. Her theme, alongside the theme of a bustling marketplace, also has a hint of desperation, especially for the intro. She's my 3rd favourite of the game, tied with Momoyo, but in all honesty, I can't rank the characters. I love them all. I also like rainbow-coloured clothes, or that everything is related to the sky and the weather. It's very nice to look at, and it goes well with her hair and eyes. I could never forget her.

Her story really focuses Touhou back to the basic struggle that pretty much every Youkai in gensokyo has grappled with. They’re all slowly being forgotten due to the changing of the times, that’s why they moved to Gensokyo in the first place. I think Chimata is interesting because even in Gensokyo, which is supposed to be built from the ground up for the purpose of preserving all Youkai, she is struggling to stay alive. It suggests that there are probably still many Youkai in Gensokyo that still gets forgotten & disappear. It shows that Gensokyo is not perfect, which is interesting. I can only imagine what Chimata felt like when Reimu came in to beat the shit out of her. It must be scary being in that situation.

I think Chimata represents something that we as fans forget sometimes, and that is the tragedy that is all of Gensokyo's non-human residents. They were all forgotten, thrown away by humanity's fickle collective mind. Given life by us, and killed by us. As humanity lets itself slip further and further away from it's core, these beings we used to revere slip away with it. That, to me at least, is a good reason to possibly put Chimata in my top 5 characters

I wasn’t a fan of Chimata or her theme at first, but like most people here, they’ve both really grown on me. Her design is really great, and I like how goofy her pose is, plus this song is filled with so much emotion with Chimata’s last stand to save the marketplaces that are the source of her dwindling life. She really took a final stand here and you can hear it throughout the song.

I was kind of mad for not getting another epic showdown like in 17 but, I realized that it's way better when you really think about it. Chimata is pissed when you're trying to stop the circulation of cards, essentially her lifeblood, plus adding on to the fact that she was "betrayed" by the other two just adds to her anger. It is a quiet sort of power.

Her non-spells are just the same thing over and over, which is sad, given how varied were Keiki's nons, and also, she just uses boring amulets as the sole item for her nons.

I think her design is just alright With the concept of "lunar rainbow market goddess" you can really go in a lot of directions. The direction ZUN picked is, i guess fitting, although she looks more like some sort of high fashion model and not so much market goddess... The gods in Touhou just look like ordinary people so i don't think there's much to complain there. And that's about it really, it's certaintly not bad, it's just alright, the rainbow motif is really in your face with all that sky stuff, but i think it could have been pulled off more creatively and interestingly, pushing that marketplace goddess concept further, but as she is, she's fine. Although, i have heard a few people saying that her dress is supposed to represent how she's fighting to come from scraps as she ain't got no faith, but really, i don't think that's the case... Her dress looks too deliberate, the textures are all the same and also, zippers? It's not really scrap-alike, and i don't think that's at all the thing ZUN was going for with her She's not really that, her whole objective is of getting more power and not really getting faith as if it was food she was starving for. Why she wants more power? I don't know, just because i guess, Touhou characters are as deep as a plate most of the time. But what i do really enjoy is her musical theme, it's just super intricate and it has more character and story she even has right now... Just goes to show how good ZUN is at his music

This having 18 likes is absolutely perfect

Unless I screw something up, 2:37 almost always ends up syncing perfectly with the beginning of her survival spell for me. Feels amazing every time.

Now this is the theme I always talking about: I love everything about this theme, the first time I listen to it I immediately loved it. After Idolatrize World, this is a different one. This theme doesn't have to be intense and epic at it's own will (even I find it really epic), it start off unique, cheerful, and energetic. And yes, the choir sample is by far my favorite part of this theme (give it the timeline cuz I can't stop listening to this part at 1:30). It's like fighting a god, which make sense that she's a god of marketplaces. As for her design, I actually like it too. Like it's weird, but it's really endearing to look at, hers and Megumu's design are my favorites in this game. This is an unpopular opinion, but I find it a lot better than Pure Furies and Idolatrize World, in fact this is my new favorite final boss theme after Kobito of the Shining Needle, overall my favorite theme in Touhou. My god, UM OSTs are so interesting and I really love it. I hope I'm not the only one who *REALLY* likes this theme the first time I hear it, hopefully ;w; ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *Edit:* Okay I've listened to this theme many times, but that doesn't mean I'm tired of it. In fact, it turns out I've ended up become a #1 fan favorite of this theme, I know it sounds ridiculously unpopular and I said it before or many times, but I have to do it if I want to, I even got many adjective words to describe for this theme so ahem... Amazing, Beautiful, Dynamic, Earworm, Fantastic, Godlike, Hype, Impressive, Lovely, Masterpiece, Nice, Outstanding, Perfection, Quirky, Remarkable, Smooth, and Thrilling. (I'm out of positive adjective words for this sry ;v; ) Immemorial Marketeers is the epitome of perfection track for me, absolutely love this theme, best Touhou song by far that I always had a special place in my heart!

If anything her powers basically run counter to that. If something is bought and sold, it will always belong to its original owner. NFTs are not tangible goods and she basically ensures that people who legitimately purchase artwork and not some facsimile of a piece always retain value and ownership of it.

personally I think Chimata's design fit her, her theme is something representing the marketplace, as someone mentioned that there's multiple climates. For her ability, when you actually think about it, it makes sense as if "you gift something to someone", despite the ownership is technically "someone's", you would still say this gift is given by yourself and you would be somewhat angry if the "someone" just toss your gift into a trash can. But if change the case to "you sell a gift to someone", your own mind would tell you that "this gift is his/hers" and would not care if the person you sell to throw that gift into a shredder.

Chimata!!! 😰 Tenkyu~ 😊

2:37 doesn't make me tear up like in Emotional Skyscraper or The Sea where One's Home Planet Reflects (knowing context) 2:37 doesn't portray as much power as True Administrator or Ore from the Age of the Gods The melody isn't too ground-breaking like in Idola Deus or Wind God Girl In fact, I would have been disappointed if ZUN tried to force-fit a super touching melody into this, for example. The emotions this song portrays are unique to Chimata. In my opinion, one of them is desperation in the face of dwindling physical marketplaces in the real world, since it sounds like repeated wailing. Another is turmoil/chaos/simply instability of the stock market, as the melody oscillates violently (also seen in the pose (which could also be interpreted as a dollar sign)). Of course, you have your interpretations. That shows its thought-provoking as well; this melody sure is intriguing, and intriguing melodies take a substantial amount of time to warm up to, as did this song, at least for me. The bottom line is that this is yet another a novel and unique masterpiece by the mastermind. It's not another Evening Star. It's not another Egoistic Flowers. This is assurance that, after 24? 25? 26? games, ZUN's best years are certainly not behind him. He still has tricks up his sleeve, and he hasn't lost his creativity. There's a reason why Touhou 14 onwards is called the meme era of Touhou. This is why I don't pick favourites in Touhou music. They're all good music. Above all, the ZUNpet still slaps.

@vyllix8546

2 жыл бұрын

Agreed. I don't think any song needs to be absolutely ground breaking to be very pleasing, so i do very much so enjoy this, also, which Evening Star are you talking about? The classic one from Immaterial and Missing Power or from Antinomy of Common Flowers?

gosh I adore her design

Just re-listening now, it sticks out that the only modulation in this one is one semitone up from the home key. Usually, ZUN goes through far more modulations in each piece, and they're typically far more dramatic. Sure, one semitone means sharing hardly any notes with the initial key, but even so, it's effectively a truck driver's gear change-that is, a trick that tends to characterise pop songs. That might be why some find this theme a little underwhelming-while it's fabulous and dramatic, it doesn't go as over the top in driving the melody through as many keys as it can as per regular Touhou tradition. In that regard, it feels deliberately understated. It still slaps, though. Maybe ZUN just didn't feel the need to modulate as much as usual, since the theme's already so expansive.

About the better music knowledge, why not try timestamps? Now this is a weird theme, everyone thought it was really underwhelming for a final boss - considering the impact Idolatrise World left, it's not too surprising. But then a week or two later everyone's loving it. Really goes to show that first impressions aren't everything. As for my thoughts... see above, really. I wasn't too big at first, but it's grown on me quite a lot. It gives me an impression of a bustling crowd (especially the intro), fitting for a market goddess, and the way the mood rises and falls definitely suits the idea of trading well.

Chimatas pose is literally Stonks and Not Stonks; she is literally stuck in the limbo between profit and bankruptcy (Destruction) Her fight with you, her final venture, will decide her state of existence

_"Where is that Bustling Marketplace Now?"_ Yeah that's me whenever crypto crashes.

This theme is much like most people say. The climax of the game and their right. From the Mercato ahhs to the new drum kit this theme is a great breath of fresh air. There isn't a bad part in this theme. But my favorite part is 1:30 that synthy bell (beauty pop bell) is so amazing and gives the theme a more mythical tone to it.

I’m just imagining a graph of stocks just going insane due to the all the economy shenanigans happening for the past 2-4 years and this music playing in the background

First impression of this theme was that it was good, but felt kinda like an extra boss theme. Same with the fight; it was kinda puzzle-y in the same way you would expect an extra boss to be. Thoughts on the fight haven't changed much but the theme is now one of my Touhou hype songs because it carries so much energy with it

Why the sky in her cape? Because sky is often symbol of free. And Chimata is the incarnation of the Free Market. The different colours represents the differents markets, connected to each others. Each pieces of cloth/market is useless by itself, but the sum of it is greater. Rainbows are symbol to door to others world, with the little cauldron/bag of gold. But obviously the cauldron of gold doesn't exist, so it's a never ending run to the "bottom" of the rainbow. Her hands, showing top and below, are obviously symbols of the "candles" in speculative markets.

She was formerly the top of the class in some kind of business, has since dropped to near-trash levels of waste, and has been struggling to stay relevant ever since until the events of the game happened.

Thank you Chimata

I love this theme. Others many not like it because it doesn't have one huge epic climax, but I think it's symbolic of the pared-back stakes of this game's incident. Think of DDC, LoLK, or WBaWC which had very serious incidents, and how epic their final boss themes are. This game is far less threatening to Gensokyo, and the music reflects this. But it's still REALLY GOOD. This and Momoyo's theme are some of my new favorites. UM as a whole is just an amazing game.
