Perfect Hot Dream

***Touhou Youyoumu ~ Perfect Hot Dream*** (東方溶々夢 〜 *Perfect Hot Dream*, "**Melting Dream**") is apart of the Touhou Nekketsukan series.

## Overview

The warm season was over, and the frontier was closed to the illusion of silvery white. However, winter had nothing to do with Shuzo Matsuoka, a scorching hot man with a pocket warmer stuck to his back. Quickly, the snow in the mountains melted and the water flowed like a muddy stream. The flowing water immediately turned into steam, and without exception, Genzokyo became like a steam bath. People, including youkai, have grown tired of the long heat wave that never seems to end, and even the most energetic people have grown tired and quiet.

**Tennis**: "..."

**Shuzo**: "Why don't you guys speak up! I'm just saying, speak up!"

And February, no matter how you look at it, is not going to be a normal spring.

**-1-**

Fureimu Hakumai, the shrine maiden of the Hakumai Shrine in Genzokyo, was also not fond of the hot weather.

**Fureimu**: "Ah, it's so hot."

The only thing that was different was that it was still February. The temperature had been unusually high for a while now, and was about to continue for another week.

**Fureimu**: "Why is it so hot and humid this year already? Hot, hot..."

**Shuzo**: "It's hot because you say it's hot. Try saying it's cool."

**Fureimu**: "Yeah, it's cool... Like hell it is!"

At that moment, their eyes met. The girl understood that it was a reason that she didn't have to say it out loud anyway. So she shut up and tried to destroy the cause, since talking would consume calories and make her hot.

**Fureimu**: "(By the way, am I sure this is the guy who caused this?)"

**Shuzo**: "That's not possible! I'll see you around!"

The girl set off in pursuit of the strange guy who had left in a spectacular step.

**-2-**

The east wind magician, Air Marisa, like most humans, disliked the heat wave quite a bit and enjoyed it a bit.

**Marisa**: "It's hawt~ I don't usually hate hot weather."

The Kirisame residence was particularly hellish because of the magical heating. Even if it didn't, the magic room would still be warm somehow.

**Marisa**: "It's so hot we can't even go out for a nice drink of spring water."

**Shuzo**: "Heyyy..! Don't give up. Why do you give up there?"

At that moment the girl saw that there was an intruder in her house. A former tennis player from the Far East. Yes, it was Shuzo Matsuoka.

**Marisa**: "Maybe you're behind this? I mean, what the hell are you doing coming in here like that? I didn't even notice."

If he went upwind, there would be more hot air. The heat was coming from him. A normal person should not be so hot... The girl set off in a desperate attempt to catch the ex-tennis player who had pointedly walked away.

**-3-**

The maid at the Scarlet Rice Mansion, Byakuya Shiranui, was drinking bitter iced coffee to cool herself down in a room with an unusual room temperature.

**Byakuya**: "We're about to run out of fuel and ice."

As you can imagine, they wouldn't be able to install refrigeration or coolers if the generator went out. No one would be able to deliver there at the earliest opportunity, because the muddy waters from the mountains had completely obliterated the existing roads, which was a bit unthinkable.

**Byakuya**: "As expected, we didn't expect this to happen, because if we cut out the ice cream and the cooler, the young lady would be in a huff again."

**Shuzo**: "Dream! Let's have a good dream!"

**Byakuya**: "...We'll just have to eliminate the cause before we run out of fuel. Young lady, I'm afraid you're going to have to leave."

**Shuzo**: "I said to have dream a good dream!"

At this point the young lady was convinced that in another day she would be dried out. So she decided to sleep it off.

**Shuzo**: "But that doesn't stop anyone from falling asleep!"

**-4-**

It's been a really long hot summer in Genzokyo, with the temperature rising like a quadratic function with each passing day since February.

And they don't come back except in summer.

## Main Characters

As before, you can choose between two playable characters, Fureimu Hakumai and Air Marisa and the boss of Stage 5, Byakuya Shiranui, for a total of three.

After selecting one of the three players, you can also choose one of the two shots to use, which means that there are a total of six different types of mechanics.

The number of clam bombs for each character is different compared to the previous game.

### **Fureimu Hakumai**

She has the slowest movement speed of the three, an initial bomb count of 443, a small hit detection on enemy bullets, and a long effective time for biting bombs. Her attack power is low, but it is easy to prevent mistakes.

"You're afraid to make a mistake, aren't you? When you make a mistake, do a victory pose!"

* **[Spiritual Mark] Tracking Type**
	+ The bullets automatically track the enemy, so there is little need to pattern them. However, it lacks offensive power and is not suitable for quick attacks. The spiritual symbol "Cremation Wind Seal" fires a large barrage around your ship, and "Cremation Wind Seal" fires a large barrage at the enemy, but the power of both is low. She is also known as Zabuton Waki Miko, who shoots bullets in the shape of a cushion

* **[Dream Mark] Rapid Fire Type**
	+ A well-balanced aircraft with a higher attack power than the "Spiritual Mark". It is also known as the Hari Miko, which fires needle-like projectiles at high speed. The dream mark "Fuuma Jin" attacks the entire screen, but has a short invincibility time. The dream symbol "Nishuzoukai" has a short range, so it is completely useless against distant enemies, but it is powerful when used on an enemy

### **Air Marisa**

Fastest of the three (though Sakuya is faster at slow speed). The initial number of bombs is 29. The height at which automatic clam retrieval takes place at full power is lower than the other two, and coupled with the high speed movement, the aircraft is easy to retrieve clams. "You can't get the clam!". The number of bombs is only 29, so it is suitable for advanced players. The Mashuter Spark of the Love Bomb is very powerful, and some boss characters can be defeated with a single blow right after their spell cards are used. On the other hand, you will have a hard time with the spell cards of bosses after the extras, where bombs are not effective as a means of attack.

It is said that in this work, their performance is slightly reduced due to their thick clothing. "Yes, a human body warmer!"

* **[Demon Mark] Power-oriented Type**
	+ It is commonly known as Misamatsu, which shoots missile-shaped projectiles. It has high attack power at both low and high speeds, and the blast after hitting the target also has a hit detection. However, its attack range is narrow and it can only hit enemies in front of it. Since the missile's velocity at low speed is slow, it can only hit moving enemies if you read where they are moving

* **[Love Mark] Penetrating Type**
	+ Fires a laser that penetrates the enemy. Commonly known as Resamatsu. The main shot has a wider attack range than the magic mark. Also, in this game, the laser no longer flickers when moving at low speed, and the attack power is more stable than in Red. The low-speed bomb, Mashutar Spark, has the power and range to destroy the three Flameriver sisters in an instant. The no-reason directional laser, which is a high-speed bomb, also has more firepower than the Mashuter Spark when used while attached to an enemy. For better or worse, this is an aircraft that emphasizes bomb firepower and motivation

### **Byakuya Shiranui**

His movement speed is irregular, with his fast movement being as slow as Fureimu's, but her slow movement being the fastest, surpassing Air Marisa. (= Slow speed is difficult to fine tune). The initial number of bombs is 444, one more than Flame. The effective range of Glaze is wide. The Phantom Mark is for beginners, but the Time Mark is for advanced players because of its peculiar attacks. However, once you get the hang of its unique controls, it boasts high performance in terms of both clearing and earning, as it is well-balanced in various aspects such as serve, shot, smash, volley, firepower, bomb performance and number of bombs, and ease of earning cherry points... Perhaps it was too much, but it has been weakened to the point where it can't be seen in the future.

"The world... It's so cold..."

The fact that it is equipped with a mysterious clam-type option has been the subject of some stories.
