The Doll Maker of Bucuresti

Today we’ll be looking at Alice Margatroid’s stage theme from Perfect Cherry Blossom. For the most part I think people overlook stage themes. I’m not saying everyone does, but you can’t deny that everyone doesn’t. As for me I do listen to some of the stage themes, but have been focusing more on the character themes to be honest. Well the reason I decided on this song in particular was that I found a very calming arrangement, which is very different from another arrangement I know of. You’ll see what I mean soon enough.

The original for those who don’t know it or can’t seem to remember it.

You can find the first part of the song here (It’s not Alice’s Stage theme, but her character theme). This is a rather heavy arrangement and the exact opposite of the next one.

A very calming arrangement y/y?

A nice vocal arrangement. I fully admit that the video made me cry the first time i saw it.

Now for some MarisaXAlice pictures. They’re actually my OTP.

I’ll save the rest for another day.

The Traditional Old Man and the Westernized Girl

Touhou 12 –東方星蓮船　～ Undefined Fantastic Object trial released in the beginning of March. With it came what would soon become one of my favorite songs. I can’t say for sure if it breaks my top 10 or not just yet though (since none of you know in the past I have gone through every Touhou character song from Touhou 1 to Touhou 12 and rated each one and I plan to do it again soon). And recently I found a few arrangements of Ichirin and Unzan’s Theme. I felt that one in particular needed to be shared, but I’ll put the others up too. And I’ll throw in a few pictures too.

This is the best arrangement of the theme so far. I hope some of my favorite circles will come out with some also.

A lot different from the one before I know. And I’m not sure if this is an arrangement a lot will like, but I like it so there it is.

The original.

And just for the heck of it. Though some may think these are getting old…

That’s it for this post.
