  1. “ShouRinka ~ ‘Pondering…'”
  Actually, the full title is “(Old-School Touhou) ShouRinka ~ ‘Pondering…’ (Hand-drawn Animation)”, but darned if I believe this was hand-drawn.
  Anyway, KAMs brings us a veritable festival of PC-98 Touhou characters, to the ShouRinka version (traditional Japanese instruments) of “Bad Apple”. It’s typical KAMs, which is to say, it’s nicely animated and has some intriguing and disturbing visual themes, and the character designs and movements cheerfully reside in the uncanny valley.
  NB: I had to look up the kanji for “pondering” via Google’s Chinese translation, because the compound apparently doesn’t exist in Japanese—or at least, not in the dictionaries I use.

  2. “Moonlit Night Waltz on the Phantom Cruise Ship”
  A pleasant arrangement of Stage 4’s theme with a “paper doll” approach to the visuals. Animation is limited, but it appears to be on purpose, treating the video as if it were performed as a shadow puppet play (except not in silhouette).

  3. “Running SDM”
  Just what it says on the box. To the tune of “Night of Knights”, the SDM (minus the outer walls and garden) lifts off, drops down in front of its outer walls, and starts chasing after its residents, who run away from it. For a change, Meiling doesn’t suffer butt monkey status. She doesn’t really win, either, but it’s a little different, at least.
  The ending is kind of odd; I sort of understand WHAT happens, but not really WHY.

  Have you checked out the anime Nekogami Yaoyorozu that’s based on the FLIPFLOPs manga of the same name?

  the video with Nazrin and Murasa, the music sounds close to the water town in “Okage, the shadow king”… that’s all :)
