MoF: First Thoughts

ShizuhaMOF
MoF's first boss for Reimu, Shizuka Aki
  So I finally got to downloading Touhou 10: Mountain of Faith, also known as MoF. I downloaded it from a nifty Touhou site called Moriya Shrine (moriyashrine.weebly.com), which is funny, because MoF actually features the inhabitants of that particular shrine, Suwako Moriya, Sanae Kochiya, and Kanako Yasaka. Before I start playing and tell you all about my thoughts about the game, I'd like to establish the storyline for all of you who don't know it already:
   The Hakurei Shrine is slowly losing followers and is getting visited less and less often. Reimu is upset and angry when a voice tells her she should just pack up and leave. She looks around and finds a new shrine with it's own lake, called the Moriya Shrine. Their official deity is Kanako Yasaka. Reimu believes the person who told her to give up was belonging to this shrine.
So now I am going to try MoF. I'll tell you how far I get on my first try! (Before I started I had to install a font)...
   So I only got to the Stage 1 Boss and died shortly after. But I'm out of practice. Now, I'll say what I liked about this game and any faults I encountered:
Great Things: Shizuka was an adorable, kind, funny first boss. I liked her a lot, especially since she was a god and gods are cool. Her back story as being the harvest god and smelling good and yummy since she always took care with her odor was interesting, and I liked her design. I also liked the difficulty level, much easier than EoSD. I'd recommend it to newbies if you had more lives. Also the music was nice. I think ZUN's art was beautiful in this game and had really improved since EoSD and even PoFV.

Faults: You don't see stats for charcters

Basically I love it.
