The results for the 17th Touhou popularity poll have been released yesterday. You can read here its results here (Japanese) or here (English). Between this and that, I decided to do some stats related to the music.
Here is a list of themes in the top 100 that don’t have a BUTAOTOME arrangement yet. Tracks with a * have an arrangement, but it’s instrumental/has other vocals.
31. Ano Nigiyaka na Ichiba wa Ima Doko ni ~ Immemorial Marketeers
41. Hishin Matara ~ Hidden Star in All Seasons
49. Ryuuougoroshi no Princess
55. Border of Life [okay, does it even count?]
58. Crazy Back Dancers
61. Aka yori Akai Yume *
62. Shigen no Beat ~ Pristine Beat *
63. Kokyou no Hoshi ga Utsuru Umi
68. Kourou ~ Eastern Dream…
75. Sakura Sakura ~ Japanize Dream…*
78. Eien no Shunmu *
83. Shoujo Gensou ~ Necro-Fantasy
85. Hoshi Furu Tenma no Yama
88. Lunate Elf *
91. Unlocated Hell
93. Yume Shoushitsu ~ Lost Dream
96. Demystify Feast
Now, here is a list of themes with a BUTAOTOME arrangement… that are less popular than Enigmatic Doll (which is 186°, btw). Why did I use this specific theme as the cutoff? Because I was really surprised to learn that Muse’s theme (which has exactly 62 arrangements – including best of reappearances – documented on THBWiki) is actually more popular than a lot of Hifuu originals. Compare this with G Free (333) or Izanagi Object (235). And it’s not like it’s because there is a DiPP boost or what: from a quick look, it has been like this for at least the previous two polls.
