[UPDATE] New Tiers! New Reward!

Hello...!  We are so, so grateful to everyone here for your continued support!

We sincerely apologize for the lack of communication lately.  A lot of delays have been due to personal struggles...  But, as a more positive reason, we've also been very busy preparing for a guest appearance at TouhouFest 2023 in California!!!  There's going to be a karaoke panel, and trivia, and all kinds of exciting stuff!  (Please check out TouhouFest.org for tickets, if there's any chance you can make it!)

---

Now, we need to announce... that our Patreon tiers are changing, effective TODAY!

☆ - Because we haven't been able to keep up with consistent benefits like polls and early access, we are reducing the $5 tier.  The new minimum $2 tier will offer the same polls and benefits, when applicable... but with acknowledgement that they will be less consistent.  Former "Normal Mode" patrons must manually edit their tier to "Fairy" to get the price change!  Please do so if necessary!

☆ - The $1 tier has been retired.  However, everyone who's currently in the $1 tier can keep their access for as long as they stay subscribed!

☆ - CDs have been out of stock for a while now, and so the CD tiers are retired.

☆ - But in their place...  There is a $25 tier with a new physical reward:  PINS!  Lori-hime's pixel art, the art used in our videos, is being produced as hard-enamel pins!  They're seriously so shiny and adorable...

The character offered will change every month, meaning each one is only available for a short time.  The first character is... none other than Lyrica Prismriver!  We will be bringing these pins to sell at TouhouFest, and later in an online shop.  But patrons get the first dibs on them.  Supplies are limited, so I hope you'll enjoy!

Thank you again for being here! ♪

Green Sanatorium

No connection, no reception.

You, my lifeline, out of range.

I write letters every morning,

Then pretend at your exchange.


Places that we haven’t gone

And faces that we haven’t seen

Dance behind these heavy eyelids,

Sealed away in quarantine.


This certainly feels just like the time to indulge in imagination.

But whenever I dream, it’s right there… all I can see is nightmare.

Dreamscapes of hell may mirror very well those fears, when awake, that we face.

After all, you would say reality always has been the scariest place.


Soon enough, they’ll calm all their commotion.

Set me free… how wishful of a notion.


Meanwhile, I’m wasting away.

I’m stuck uncounted in between.

I might go mad as they think me,

Sealed away in quarantine.


I’ll tell no soul of our secret.

Do you think they’d even care?

Sometimes, it’s best to keep on

These necessary masks we wear.


Lonely, lonely, I’ll be lonely,

Stuck for even one more day.

Where you are, you might as well be

Forty thousand moons away.


This certainly feels just like the time to indulge in imagination.

But is that such a wise move while your dreams are the thing on trial?

Hardly do I remember the sky outside, sinking deep in my mind.

And we’re not sure what’s going to happen if you continue to leave it behind.


Soon enough, they’ll calm all their commotion…

Soon forget the threat still is in motion.


Who has the best of the answers?

Often, those who make the rules

Can’t see the truth with their own eyes,

So make judgments fit for fools.


I’ll fill you in on the headlines,

All this news unfolding fast.

We seek a strange sort of progress,

Reaching right back to the past.


Four white walls, and one glass window

Overlooks synthetic green.

Still not wilting, still not growing,

Just like me in quarantine.


What comes next?  Will I slip through the cracks now?

Cures unfound may fade into the background.

If we had a new vision to trust in…

Surely there’d be no problem adjusting.


I’ve taken all the precautions,

Sanitized and squeaky-clean.

I’ll see you here on the flip side,

Once you’re free from quarantine.


Oh, tell me – what shall we do when

Life returns like once before?

You’d say I took it for granted.

Even now, I’m wanting more!


…Though you didn’t catch the symptoms,

Could it be contagious still?

Just because you haven’t felt it,

Don’t assume you never will.


Close the door and then reopen,

Will we see a different scene?

Reinvent a world forgotten,

Sealed away in quarantine.

Kitten of Great Fortune

(feat. Lori-hime as Mike)


Follow the sign, with your coins on the line,

And the chance of a lifetime is one out of nine!

If you want it, don’t say no.  Don’t chase it in vain though.

You’ll find all your dreams at the end of the rainbow...!

(“Wanna buy some cards?”)

Restocking now, now – get ‘em while the ink’s still hot!

Such sweet goodies that your tongue is caught!

Meow, meow – welcome to the good-luck spot.

I’ll show you all the colors that I have!


Another day, day – busy business as well!

For fast service, better ring that bell!

Hey, hey – plenty more to buy and sell.

I’ll show you all the colors that I have!


So, feed your desires, and check out the flyers,

And hear the reviews of the satisfied buyers.

Competition is catty, and gossipy, chatty,

But don’t bet your bank on the trendy and faddy.


Accepting defeat from the haters you meet,

Well, it’s out of the cradle and onto the street.

But if you’re making a stake for your very own sake,

The return on investment is all yours to take…!

(“Unlock a secret ability!”)

Believe it!  Wow, wow – anyone can learn new tricks!

You’re not broken, but ya can be fixed!

Meow, meow – treasure’s in a bag that’s mixed.

Now, show 'em all the colors that you have!


You know it!  How, how wonderful a deal – win-win!

Shiny things for you, and shiny things for me!

Meow, meow – look at what the kitten dragged in.

Costs a little money, but the smile comes free!


No, you’ll never wanna return it!

Part of what you’re buyin’ is the fun to play!

Go, go – get yourself a treat, you earned it.

Pick a card, and don’t forget to pay, pay, pay~

Retribution for the Eternal Night ~ Imperishable Night

Still the night is staying, endlessly delaying.  Longing for the day, I’ve got a lot to do…

Listen to the hero, always floatin’ near, and humans never fear; they know it’s up to you…

Such a nasty chore, but just like years before, another eastern story where I set us free…

I won’t sit and bystand.  Put your faith in my hands.  Now this once, just try and leave it all to me…


Time has lost its essence.  I can feel the presence, shady luminescence shed upon a crime…

What’s the use in rushin’?  Ain’t no repercussion.  Stay for some ‘discussion,’ since we’ve got the time…

Double-teamed and taunting, all those airs you’re flaunting, maybe you’re the wanted one to talk to…

Words, y'know, are cheap.  The only way to keep me wide awake from sleep is pure danmaku!


Deep in those halls,  (“Get through me first!”)

Some culprit calls.  (“I hear ya.”)

Home in on one.  (“Keep that focus!”)

Watch how it’s done.  (“Oh~”)


Let’s make things hot!  (“I’m ready now.”)

Take your best shot!  (“Blink and miss it.”)

Heartfelt and true,  (“Since when?”)

This one’s for you!!


Forces of nature and forces of will:

They’ll have all met their match by the new day.

Under the stars, these spells of ours

Will be clashing to find their way.


Black and white and red painting the night sky,

The hands of the clock start to run late.

On two different flights, drawn by one light,

That our paths cross is only fate~


Don’t get too cute.  (“Can’t help it.”)

Move and I’ll shoot!  (“Ha!”)

What’s there to prove?  (“There’s no need.”)

Shoot and I’ll move!  (“What?”)


Make no mistake.  (“If I can’t win ya…”)

My walls won’t break.  (“Won’t let no one–”)

–else take that spot!  (“Together, then…”)

Endless or not…  (“Let’s end this!”)

Eastern Youkai Beauty

Heat of the battle and light of the moon;

The energy rising is making me feel like a lunatic.

Nothing to lose, so I’m not holding back.

Throw all that I’ve got into one more attack.

You gave me the challenge; I took it up then.

I’ll take it again and again and again.

A side of myself I show only to you,

Who has never enough, who will never be through.


We kick up the dust at our feet

Till we’re floating on nothing but heat.

A swelling intensity, growing in density;

Fully surrounded, it builds a suspense in me.

Cutting through all of the blindingest colors, I see it,

The coy little smile that plays on your lips.

It’s getting me wired up, fired up. Free it –

It’s you, and it’s me, in a total eclipse.


Come, dance with me through endless shining stars,                           (That’s right.)

Poised so to fill the endless night.                                                          (Don’t let it end.)

Stay longer, if you haven’t had enough.               (Got nothing but time to spend.)

Once more, begin the fight of two immovable hearts…                                     (Fight!)


Yes, our very stubbornness is key.                                                            (I won’t give up.)

Birth here a new eternity.                                                                (And you won’t give in.)

No meaning, it is truly up to me.                                                (A duel no one can win.)

I’ll have the final word.                                                        (But… I’ll have the final word.)


Our charm is so elusively defined:                                   (Let this conversation flow.)

Pure elegance and strength entwined.                           (A language only we know.)

Raw duality, a beauty of the mind.                    (Not human, not ghost.  Look east.)

Now, as the power flows, what shall we call ourselves?   (Tonight, we are beast.)


Gaze on me, at my very highest peak.                                                                (Go higher.)

This storm shall be the last you see.                              (Come on and taste the fire!)

Until another life where may we meet,                                         (Till we meet again…)

I’ll have the final word.

Illusionary Joururi

From the days of glory, so we start the story once again.

「MUKASHI MUKASHI」 KARA   Let’s begin.

When you hear BEN BEN NO OTO, o-biwa and koto, now and then,

MADA 「MEDETASHI」 MADE   Listen in.


As one humble voice sings…

As the call of thunder rings…

Now, we must release this tension in our strings.  (Ah…)


Back ninety-nine years,

Noble chords graced noble ears.

Worn bodies recall,

Having recorded it all there.

We must embrace this tension in the air.  (Ah…)


Take this world by storm!!  (YAMIKUMO NI)

These magic clouds of fate, gathering late, rise as a stage which seeks its actor.

Take this brand-new form!!  (TSUKUMOGAMI)

Return with classical lyric spirit into the modern age, and ever after.


Cry a song of war!!  (SENSOU WO SHIYOU)

Nostalgic notes will chime, signal the time, ancient emotions resonating.

Long-lost sounds of yore!!  (GENSOU NO OTO)

Are flowing straight from a source untarnished, rich as a dream itself but never fading.


Harmony is strong!!  (GAKKI NO RAKUEN)

We two are joined with a goal, kindred of soul, if not of blood, we find our way to…

Right what once was wrong!!  (RAKKII NA GYAKUTEN)

We will rebel over selfish players, choose for ourselves at last the song we want to play!


Joyous rebirth-day!

Praise to the tools rising on this reverse-day!

Ah…  Our music shall not pass away.

(MEDETASHI, MEDETASHI~)

Blooms of Spirit Possession

"One, two…  One, two, three, four…"


It starts with a seed in the dark of the night.

You wait for a sunbeam to bring it to light.

The birth of a legend where you are the star.

The moment defining the person you are.


Then, in that moment, the record is set.

Are you that person, or did you forget?

What would possess you to do such a thing?

A spirit of fate has been playing your strings.


Oh…  Are you listening?  Are you listening?


"Thank you.  Thanks for listening.

This is Raiko Horikawa on drums, ushering in a new era for the Prismriver Ensemble.

But don’t worry…  You’ll always recognize that classic, pristine beat.

Now, are we ready to drop the bass?“


"On the synthesizer of sounds reborn from obscurity… Lyrica!”

"On the heartbreaking violin that outclasses Stradivarius… Lunasa!“


Strings of the heart…

Gently upon which somber memories play…

So they haunt…

Pluck on the pains of yesterday.


Let it play, from the heart.

Yours is a tragic song with no counterpart.

Let them flow…

Tears that you’ve held back from the start.


Let it build, thick as a swarm,

Outside yourself, given voice at last, given form.

Sharing it with the world may be

The only course left through the storm.


"On the fearsome trumpet fed with the pure blood of jazz… Merlin!”


Now what’s left but the harmony?

Is it moving you?  Entertaining you?

It’s a dance you’ve been doing since who even remembers when!

That is life itself!

Let this mania keep you company,

And you’ll never be lonely again!


Take the lead of the nonsense!

Is it wonderful?  Unbelievable?

It’s the song you’ve been singing forever, now sing it again!

In a higher key!

Let this mania keep you company,

And you’ll never be lonely again!

Are you ready to hear what your soul has to say?

A Pair of Divine Beasts

Now till the season is through,

We have so much to do.

And to win, it takes two, two, two!

My friendship is second to none.

If you want something done,

Why, then I’ll be the one, one, one for you!


I’ve been waiting for so, so long.

I’ve watched you work hard and grow so strong.

What you’ve taught me is, in this wonderful paradise, that everyone is welcome!

But if troublemakers should come around,

I just can’t bear it to see you frown.

Wishing I could do so much more with my stiff body…

Well, look at what my wishes got me!


I may be made out of stone,

But I’m not that alone.

In my heart is a soft, soft, soft spot too!

Like a wedding so sweet,

See, the two parts of me

Have been joined into one, one, one, one!


Now till the season is through,

We have so much to do.

And to win, it takes two, two, two!

My friendship is second to none.

If you want something done,

Why, then I’ll be the one, one, one, one…


Your loyal guardian is watching from the shadows here…

We breathe in harmony, and breathe out all the nasty fear.

Although you say you didn’t know me, and I know it’s true,

I wonder if I know you better than you know you?


I might look like the kind of beast that you would chase away,

But I have faith that you have faith in every word you pray.

The charm I offer is a seal with nothing more to hide:

A humble promise that I’m always on your side.


And I don’t ask for thanks. 

Your happy smile is all I need!

But, that said…!

I won’t say no… to one small treat…

Or maybe pat my head~

Strawberry Crisis!!

“Oh, a real live research subject?  How wonderful.”
“Let’s go, boss!”


The intelligence of modern machines is artificial.

Scenery projected on screens is artificial.

Supplements that keep you awake are artificial.

Flavors in your strawberry cake…  “That, too?”


Games that you’re invited to play are artificial.

Words that you’re accustomed to say are artificial.

Terabytes of data you send are artificial.

Value of the money you spend…  “Who knew?”


Systems that determine the rules are artificial.

Resources to fashion your tools are artificial.

Half of all the green that you grow is artificial.

Oftentimes, the smile that you show…  “How do ya feel?”


Satellites you launch into space are artificial.

Limits that you bother to place are artificial.

All the colors painting your scenes are artificial.

You think you can judge what it means… to be real?


Ah, pure bright red… the eternal lifeblood of modern science is truth.

Yet we instead willfully reject what does not reflect prefixed proof.

History’s guide, a double-edged sign, calls for us to cross that line twice:

In order to grant our greatest wish, we will need a sacrifice.  (“…Not it!”)


See, I have no choice.

I will admit, my power as well:

Artificial and transient, even as I hold it clear in my hand…


Now, dreamers rejoice!

Going beyond what theories can tell…

Here, at last, in a magic land…


Nothing can deceive me.

Then they’ll believe me!!

“Oh.  I’ve dabbled a little, but I haven’t finished yet…”
“Heh…  Why not pick my brain for help?”
“Thank you, Seki!  How's this?”


Small pond… Big fish.

Calm days… You wish!

Cool streams… Deep stuff.

Smooth strokes… Real tough.


Some stories say I’m tasty to the bite.

Promise me you won’t, and there’s love in store~

For humans who don’t learn,

The tide is gonna turn.

Let’s see just who’s on the hook in the end!


Pure power bubbles right beneath the mist.

Dive in and you’ll find what you’re searching for~

To measure up to scale,

You’d better work your tail,

Else you’re sleepin’ with the fishes tonight!


Fresh lake… Fresh meat.

Swift fins… Cold feet?

Sweet calls… Like a siren.

My home… So it’s my win!


I’ll sing for you, like once upon a time.

Try to follow tune, if you know the song~

Too mesmerized to think,

You’ll either swim or sink,

Or be blown out of the water for good!


Three friends will meet together by the shore.

Plenty room to join, if you tag along~

It’s time to make some waves,

And new watery graves…

You’ll be sleepin’ with the fishes tonight!!

“Ha, ha, ha, ha.  Right?”
“I’m not sure about all the lines, but we’ll work on it~”

Trojan Asteroid Jungle

(Two by twotwo by two…)
Two by two, march…
(Two by twotwo by two…)
Two by two, march…


A cold metal gray paints the walls of our vessel;

A warm coat of red paints the gate of a shrine.

No matter how far our technology marches,

We still fear the gods at the end of the line.


A pure void of black paints the dead space around us;

A sprawling of green paints the life as it thrives.

A border of nothing and something colliding,

A sight to remember the rest of our lives.


With air long recycled, the creatures are breathing;

They’ve met their confines with a thrilling expanse.

This energy builds up with nowhere to go,

And we find after all that we can’t help but dance.


Transients facing the realm of eternity:

Far less impossible odds than it seems.

Meek insects and flowers refuse to be silenced;

How ever could death touch a human with dreams?


(Two by twotwo by two…)
Two by two, march…
(Two by twotwo by two…)
Two by two, march…


Our bodies as light as the doubts on our spirits,

An impact as great as an asteroid’s fall:

With crisscrossing feelings now pushing us forward

The weight on our shoulders is nothing at all.


So filled two by two is this on-marching jungle,

As one on its own can bring no more to be.

There might be no welcome for one on this flight,

But our two minds together have granted the key.


A bright rain of bullets could drip from my fingertips;

Now all that’s left is to follow the light.

Let’s firmly believe in our mystical powers,

But keep up the prayer that there’s no one to fight.


Danger is merely a twist in the story;

We can’t leave to wake till we’ve told it all right.

We hear that the ark in the heavens is calling

To bravely begin our adventure tonight.

(Two by two, we go…)

We hear that the ark in the heavens is calling

To bravely begin our adventure tonight.

(Two by two, we go…)

We hear that the ark in the heavens is calling

To bravely begin our adventure tonight.


(Two by twotwo by two…)
Two by two, march…

Eternal Shrine Maiden

(Featuring Lori-hime as Reimu)


     [ dream is waiting... ]


A fantasy sealed, in a pure land:

Peace is my frail castle on sand.

Hold the ideal, safe in my hand,

Close to my heart, to the last stand;


Make it eternal (eternal)...  Eternally, I’ll

Make it eternal (eternal)...  Eternally, shine for me.


My world of perfect balance and timeless tradition:

What lies inside the border is my duty to defend.

Down through those pits of hell, I chase my intuition:

Pure faith that brought me here will be guiding me to the end.


Capture the dream that I see.

By the light of my mind, set it free.

Call a name, and I pray for an answer...

Like a game, and I play ever after...


     [ dream unfading... ]


It’s yin and it’s yang, black against white:

Burdens are great, spirits are light.

Bells that once rang, echo tonight,

Sound in my heart, show me what’s right;


Make it eternal (eternal)...  Eternally, I’ll

Make it eternal (eternal)...  Eternally, shine for me.


What makes this feeling more than a vain superstition?

Always, that’s just the way it is, right down through history.

Up to these heights of heaven, I’ll make this my mission:

Armed here with all I need to be solving a mystery.


If I believe I can fly...

All the same, it’s the truth and a lie.

Call a name, and I pray for an answer...

Like a game, and I play ever after...
