We always talk about the best, but what do you think is the worst song in Touhou? Primarily focusing on the ones by ZUN but if a song by any guest composer from the fighting games really doesn't do it for you that's allowed too.
Ariya's theme.Not that it's offensively bad, but for me personally it was a let-down for a final boss theme.
>>50875139I think the song itself is solid, but the instrumentation is very weak. It sounds far too relaxed and subdued, and I've seen people argue that because the plot of FW isn't as dire as a game like SA it doesn't need to be as intense as Okuu's theme, but I don't think it should be so mild either. The main hook sounding a bit like Lunate Elf's hook was a bit disappointing but after composing 500 songs I think that's a bit of an unfair dig.
UDoALG has multiple stinkers, it feels like an entirely different tier of music compared to any other game. The entire game has serious issues but this is a music thread so I will stay on topic. Marisa's or Hisami's theme is propably the absolute bottom of the barrel Touhou has descended to.Something that a lot of people will not agree with but I genuinely think is that 1/3 of PCB's soundtrack sucks, and Youmu's theme is just midi farts. Might be the worst one for me in early franchise, propably fighting tooth and nail for that title with PoFV Medicine's theme, I feel like it goes nowhere musically.>>50875139>>50875162The first few seconds are a setup for something very intense and give me serious chills, but then it immediately drops the ball. I do like the subdued parts of it, but it does indeed fail to be intense, that guitar just doesn't work. I wouldn't call it the worst by any stretch, not even the worst final boss theme, but it could be much better.
