[Touhou 5] Doll's Story ~ Doll of Misery (Remastered)

悲しき人形 ～ Doll of Misery
The theme of Shinki's maid, Yumeko. and also a blade-wielding battle maid in Makai.
This theme in composition is interesting, mostly of how it naturally sounds like (not in terms of the sounds). and picturing the apocalyptic nature of how battle maids, in general, would play in that setting thus, this remastered version was made.
Yumeko is a pretty interesting character, in a sense her design is a precursor to another maid character, Sakuya Izayoi. so thinking how this theme would be remastered, had to be filled with "epicness" feeling to it. so I'd say this remastered theme was refined in certain ways.

Everyone's crying on Shou while I'm suffering on Yumeko.

Easily the best remaster of Yumeko's theme, too many remasters/re-arranges out there that focus on making the theme sound as melancholic and miserable as possible rather than, well, a boss theme, but this one succeeds at sounding like a boss theme while still having the original's sad undertone. Good stuff, subscribed.

Great remaster of Yumeko's theme! She really deserves a lot more love as the original blade throwing maid!

[@arcticphoenix2789]

Yumeko would be a cool addition to Touhou LostWord. Imagine both Knife Maids on the same line.

[@Korogunso8]

I love it! I feel like although intense and spooky this theme has always sounded a bit whimsical.

Yumeko throws tens of swords at you in a span of miliseconds without needing time altering powers, has a red dress to not have any VISIBLE blood on it, she fights while in heels presumably, she also doesn't simp for one person and cares about the well being of the entirety of Makai
Sakuya throws light knives with time stop, has a blue dress which makes blood stand out a ton, fights in ballet shoes and simps for a loli

[@GrahamChapman]

Sakuya carries with her hundreds of knives for throwing without needing to reality hax them into existence -- on top of that she has at least almost completely mastered her time manipulation abilities; she can take the risk of wearing a blue dress because she knows that she's just plain so good, no blood will ever land on her; she prioritizes practicality above petty-minded vanity and she voluntarily swore her life to a vampire while Yumeko is just another brainwashed religious idiot who simps for some god.
Yumeko has to dream her swords into existence and she isn't even very good at that; even though she has the power to phase through reality, she still gets splashed with blood often enough that she wears a red dress to cover up the stains; she compromises her already questionable competence by wearing impractical shoes and she was _created_ to simp for a god, to the extent that she mindlessly fawns over all of her god's creations without having the autonomy to do otherwise.
Trying to shit-talk awesome characters without making them sound awesome is honestly a pretty funny challenge. xD

@@GrahamChapman What if Sakuya Izayoi is the Daughter of Yumeko?
To think straight i’m thinking about it, because they look alike and they also throw knives, but instead Yumeko throws blades instead of knives.
For Sakuya, she might have left home because Yumeko never was around with her and Sakuya did not get that much attention. Yumeko might have been missing these days and she is already a forgotten character, so im thinking that Sakuya missed her but became a maid in the Scarlet Devil Mansion and treated Remilia Scarlet, Pathouli, and Flandre Scarlet well.
Yumeko might come back soon in touhou 21 or 25, for TouHou its a very nice anime series but they might have forgotten Yumeko Izayoi..
Also Yumeko, Yukari, and mother of Reimu are all friends but the mother of Reimu died and Yumeko went missing (Canon).
Check out the story of Little Reimu in CZcams (I told you it’s canon bitch)
Bye and i think this is real.
Shit like this Yukari is mommy Shit.

[@GrahamChapman]

@@theplayerwhojustplaysmc2396 Are you implying that blade-throwing is a dominant genetic trait?
Eh, you know what? Eff it. I'll buy it. xD
