Hardest song to arrange? - Hartmann's Youkai Girl (Touhou) 

Koishi just chilling on the piano

1:22 is where i really fell in love with Koishi's theme.

1:57 I noticed that you smiling Very Wholesome That's also my favourite part of Koishi theme

0:50 I have heard many piano covers of this song, but this is the first one that I know of that includes the counter-melody When the counter-melody is played (in the original) to me it often "dominates" over the original melody so this rendition felt more "faithful" to the original theme Great Job!

0:34 This is why I play the piano : this is so satisfying, it frees me from every curse.

I have no words to describe how much this arrangement of Koishi's theme has touched my soul.

*Flashbacks to KKHTA*

whenever I hear covers of koishi's theme I always find the 0:50 part.Most people omit these which makes me sad but you sir played that spectacularly. I am having a hard time with that part too 😅

The music in these games is insane, and your piano skills match it seamlessly. I'm sure you'll tackle many more of the tough tracks with ease.

hello! my dear and benevolent sister has sent me to go fishing, but i don't have a fishing rod!

Hartman's youkai girl, is such a nightmarish piece sometimes but you really nailed that awkward 7/8s timing! I really love it too It has such an amazing and nostalgic feeling to it. I still remember how excited I was to finally beat her in SA

You've made a brilliant arrangement. It's still refreshing in the current year to listen to different arrangements from different musicians and each single one of them manages to bring something special to the original track. One can never really get too much of Touhou music!

We need to play this cover backwards and see if it sounds listenable

For those wondering I just played it in reverse and it's pretty recognizable still. That doesn't only talk about the composition itself from ZUN but also how good this arrange actually is on capturing the escence of the music. The funny thing is that it kinda trurns from a piano melody to some sort of weird string instrument. It's quite amazing. If Viddy is interested they could just upload the reversed version but I encourage anyone to try and give it a listen backwards.

You absolutely nailed it! Thank you for actually working on it, I didn't expect you would actually have done it so soon hehe. Great arrangement, 7/8 can be a real headache. You also included the countermelody, that's something I rarely hear in the arrangements! (I want to link you another cool arrangement from an another great composer/pianist. He has many, many arrangements and I think he can be a great inspiration for you: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yUyes3g7VsY.html )

Wooow this is amazing! also love that figurine always wanted that one ;w;

Recently this theme became one of of my favourites, thanks for arranging

incredible arrangement, it's actually insanely good!

Pleasure to see you Invisible friend You think you can see me? It's only pretend It's funny, cause no one's Been keen to my kind So maybe the truth is _You're losing your mind_ Pleasure to be here Impossible friend So long as you see me I'll stay till the end I'm meeting myself, too With every day Promise to make sure _You don't look away_ Who are you? Who am I? What are you? What am I? Look at me Are you blind? Look again Nevermind Are you there? Stay away There you are Stay away Here I am Stay away! Come with me Take it away... Tell me your secrets In case you forget And I'll be your backup Your faithful-est pet As cute as a kitten As smart as a crow Got nothing to hide here _And nothing to show_ Turn off your worries And leave it to chance We'll turn up the white noise And go for a dance Your favorite tune? It's my favorite, too You follow my lead I'm following you Give in to nonsense There's nothing to fight I step with my left foot And turn to the right So what's coming next? That's a total surprise Join into the game now Look straight in my _F A C E_ Who are you? Who am I? What are you? What am I? Look at me Are you blind? Look again Nevermind Are you there? Stay away There you are Stay away Here I am Stay away! Here I go No, I mean _Stay..._ We may not have known each other all that clearly Really, will it matter if we drift apart? For as long as we can feign another moment loving dearly I don't think I'll ever need to see into your heart Memories are burning to a fading ember Fragments of the feelings that were up to me I'm sick of feeling sorry, sick of trying to remember Cut my heavy conscience - I am ready to be free! I'm a little figment of imagination Nothing but the sort of person no-one knows For a face to be forgotten is the fate of every face And every pretty smile withers over like a rose Then again, with wide and happy eyes, you see me Play with me again upon another day And believing you believe in me is making me believe that M̵̫͉̎̒ā̸̬̊y̴͚͎̆b̸̛̭̉e̷̜̽ͅ ̶̙̊ͅḬ̶̅͋'̷̟̺͝m̵̹̍ ̶͇̔a̴̲̣͆̍ ̴̼̯̚t̴̠͚͒h̵̜̰̔̒i̸̭̰͗n̴̍͗ͅͅĝ̷̨ ̷͚͒̔t̴͓́h̶͎̠̽ä̶͍̙́t̷͍̩͛ ̴̖̼̔d̵͎̓̔o̴̟̱̐̾e̶̼͗ṡ̵̱̳n̷̙̮̍'̶̠̭͑ṫ̶̡̆ ̶͌͝ͅḩ̴̿ȁ̸̙̜v̸̛̼̲̐e̴̖͐̒ ̸̖̗̀ẗ̴͓̗́̀o̵̥̞̐̾ ̵̘̂f̶̲͒a̷͚͇̿ḍ̷̩͌ḛ̵̏ ̷̣̃̀a̴͕̝̕w̷̖͈̅ȃ̶̼͜y̷̹̏͜.̵̪̈́̉.̸̧̢́.̵̮͈̈͌ Pleasure to see you I've waited a while You look like a grownup But still like a child Don't worry about me I think I've been fine I remember your face _You remember mine?_ What's with the mood now? You're frozen in fear Like you've seen a stranger Inside of the mirror This isn't at all Like the face that you showed The first time we met On the side of the road Sooner or later Was anyone's guess So maybe a new start Would be for the best You look in my eyes Yet you're looking too far Pleasure to see you _Whoever you are..._

ooooooiiii nicely done ✨😌 Good work!!

this is so gooddd!!! :D Touhou has such a great soundtrack and you are doing it JUSTICE! !!

This is really good piano cover ❤

ive been trying to play some of koishi's theme and i really respect your piano playing its very good

REALLY COOL ARRANGE! I LOVE IT

Awesome! I love this sooo much!

That is actually tough... mad respect. Well done.

I've been for many years in youtube. You're the first person who's moved me to set on all notifications (aka, click the bell). You deserve this. You're a modern virtuoso of this instrument. Please never stop. We love you 💜💜

damn, really skilled playing (and arranging!)

My favourite song from touhou, although I've never played it I listen to this from time to time.

That is such a good arrangement

Man, Youre A GOD at playing this song

this very good added to playlist many enjoying

I shall observe you on this quest! good luck!

Shiidd man yourse so skilled!! subbed. i love to see these ever since i found your channel with the gensokyo millenium~history of the moon. Its super cool :) And yeah this song heavily relies on the rhythm being a certain way.

your version is close to the original but much more intense love it :)))))

Great job!! One day I'll be as good as you!!

I’d like to hear how you take on Last Remote, the song that precedes this one. I’ve never really heard a good piano cover of it. (: Anyways, this was incredible!

"It helps me relax"

Probably best koishi arrangement so far😮

Very cool!

HOW HOW HOW HOW HOW

My blood ran cold when i saw that kioshi heart throbbing adventure refrence

Touhou 11 was my first touhou game to 1cc on normal and overall is one of my favourite games of the series! Also the only game that I tried to learn playing the entire ost of, and god does koishi's theme go crazy with it's ⅞ and key changes every two bars

really amazing

This is incredible! Such a complex song to me :00

Finally a piece of art

Most splendid comrade

good performance!!

Your beard is magnificent! Gosh, I'm such a geek to ZUN's music. Boyo, now play me Pierrot Star Spangle banner! My reg... Regarded..,. Damn...drunk.... Hold on .... That clownpiece song...

amazing

woah. Nice. I subbed.

Fantastic arrange! This is not an easy song to play or arrange. due to the time signature shenanigans and the sheer chaos of it. It's actually a palindrome. So if the song is played backwards it sounds really similar to how it does when its played forward. Also, I have that koishi statue. The arteries/cords are such a pain since they're made of like... steel for some reason. I don't blame you for putting them somewhere else lol. The satori statue has PVC cords/arteries so its easier to deal with.

Beautiful arrangement. Almost sounds like i'd rather come here to listen to Koishi's theme.

this sounds great, son.

This piece is the perfect embodiment of ZUN's classic genius. One of the most beautiful songs the Touhou Project has ever produced.

1:22 My favorite part. 💚

This song has touched my heart around 5 times so far. It really hurts. How do you turn that off? Seriously though, great work!

if your on mute you look like your just having a seizure 💀💀💀💀

koishi best girl

In Sanae arrange, beautiful stuff

Love coloured magic when

Very nice arrange that conveys quite similar feeling to the original, I must say. I do remember marasy also doing an arrange called "Hartmann's Sleeping Girl" that has an entirely different atmosphere to the original, maybe check that one out?

凄い腕前だ、great!!

Oh well, actually also one of my favorite Touhou songs.. Hmm maybe they're all my favorite

The song matches your playing style, and I feel that it has a high degree of perfection.(Google translate)

Your arrangement are amazing. I wanna hear you play Satori Maiden 3rd Eye, pls?

I counted 359 Touhou songs from 1 to 18, it is probably going to take you years and years if you decide to play all of them, its obviously impossible 😂 But, It could be possible if you arrange one Touhou game for 1 video at a time. For example, you can have Touhou 11 Arranged performance with very short versions of each song of Touhou 11 from Menu to Ending. It can be edited as a storytelling of the whole game from stage 1 to the ending song, It could be interesting with some simple editing and the usual storytelling you do with your edits. Kind of similar to the first introduction to Touhou in your channel.

You've done Night of Nights and Lunar Clock, can you try Flowering Night now?

Bro I keep forgetting to subscribe :,)

This is by far the best arrangement of this song I've seen! Do you have sheet music or a midi recording or anything of your arrangement that you'd be happy to share? I'd love to learn and play this next :)

Best girl❤

Please do Borden of Life! I really love yuyuko's final spell

touhou songs r almost just as hard 2 play as the games themselves

Koishi's theme will always be my favourite, especially her ULiL theme. Anyways, I gotta go because the phone is ringing ^^

Great arrangement. Can you try Mokou's theme next? That one is really tough tho

Koishi be looking like a lenen character

Nice

Please do reach for the moon immortal smoke i think itd sound magical with your hands!!

i love it edit: also did u just reverse it in 0:50 👀

By any chance, could you arrange the song Testify? It's easily one of my favorite tracks from Arcaea (despite its insane in-game difficulty.)

u should try playing crazy backup dancers from touhou 16

Last Remote WHEN??? I saw your comment there btw :3

Pretty good mait Dont you have a twitch?
