Perfect Cherry Blossom is the second game in the Windows Touhou series (making it the seventh overall). Apart from a boatload of new characters, slightly different music, new danmaku patterns and a ridiculous death margin that makes Reimu's gameplay way too easy, it's exactly the same as Embodiment of Scarlet Devil. The storyline-for-the-sake-of-a-storyline in this game is a quest to get Gensokyo's Spring back from scary ghosts... and to plunder cats' villages of their treasure. Whomever knew Reimu could be such a jerk?

It's also here that we see Alice Margatroid from Mystic Square all grown up. Children grow fast these days... *sniff*

While the best music in this game obviously has to be the Stage 5 boss theme (which is obviously a remix of the Stage 5 boss theme of EoSD, which is obviously the best music in that game too), perhaps its greatest musical achievement was Alice's theme, as this led to Marisa stealing the precious thing.

Also, you can play as Sakuya in this game for the first time. Huzzah!

-'''Perfect Cherry Blossom''' is the second game in the Windows [[Touhou series]] (making it the seventh overall). But since Touhou is not a series (All the while having the word "series" on its title), it's not a real sequel to [[Embodiment of Scarlet Devil]]. In this game, [[Reimu]] (Or [[Marisa]]. Or maybe even [[Sakuya]]!) goes on an [[Bullet Hell|epic]] adventure to get Gensokyo's Spring back from [[Moe|scary]] [[Yuyuko Saigyouji|ghosts]]. And to plunder [[Chen|cat]] [[Mahiyoga|homes]] of their treasure. Jerk.

-This game is like the last one, except that it has [[ghosts]] and [[Spring]], and that alone already makes it awesome, among other things (Not as awesome as its "prequel", though). One flaw is that it nerfs the death margins to impossible lengths (Well, only Reimu, anyway) so it's not as challenging a game as its "prequel". Just... watch how you go with [[Stage 4]] and the [[Prismrivers]]!
