This was the only C78 Touhou arrange album that impressed me in the crossfade, and that I waited for. Granted, I limited my search on albums containing Double Spoiler arranges, because I wanted to finally get that Nemesis's Stronghold arrange fix I'm waiting for since this game's release. Unfortunately, there were only four (yes, FOUR) arranges of that theme, neither of which impressed me. But what's really making me rage is the fact that this boring fan favorite Infinite Nightmare gets 14 (!), and many of those are pretty decent!
This album doesn't contain Nemesis's Stronghold either (in fact, the Infinite Nightmare arrange is the track I like the most of this album...), but it still amazing in it's own right. Featuring many different "softed-out" genres with alternating vocal and instrumental tracks, everyone should find a favorite. Although in my opinion, the instrumental tracks really lack in comparison...
Track #05: Un-Demystified Fantasy
Source: Demystify Feast
From: 東方萃夢想 ~ Immaterial and Missing Power
Source: 二色蓮花蝶 ~ Red and White (Dichromatic Lotus Butterfly ~ Red and White)
From: 秋霜玉 (Shuusou Gyoku) / 蓬莱人形 ~ Dolls in Pseudo Paradise
Arrange/Lyrics: RD-Sounds
Vocals: めらみぽっぷ (Meramipop)
This arrangement really seems to bring out that particular happy "feast" feeling the original was supposed to have if it wouldn't have been a battle theme, especially from 2 minutes onwards. Clearly one of my favorites.
Also, what's with that "mystified" fantasy? That will stay hidden in the lyrics, until someone translates them...
As for the first picture, it may be way too badass for this song, but there are similar ones in the booklet.
