Congratulations
Marisa B on Normal
Oxymoron. Perfect Cherry Blossom with Marisa is always hard.

Yes, Youmu is amazing. For extra fun, try playing the Youmu/Yuyuko team in Imperishable Night - they both have weird and clunky shot types that for the most part make the game much harder, but their antics and their whole dialogue are quite hilarious.
I finished PCB a few weeks ago... at first I 1cc'd it on Easy, and it was so much fun that I beat it twice on Normal right after. Oh, and it was 4:30 AM or something. Somehow, it being dark outside and everyone else sleeping kind of further enhanced the atmosphere.
When I first tried it (which was shortly after I started with EoSD), I didn't like it because I still relatively sucked and always got a game over at the fourth stage, and stage 1-4 still feel like a filler to me, even though I like Alice and Chen (maybe it's just the overly cheerful and fairly generic atmosphere). Additionally, the art is horrible even by ZUN standards. But stage 5 with all its bullet time and badassery and the whole concentrated awesomeness of stage 6 (seriously, THE MUSIC!! And the cherry petals! And the butterflies! And the ghosts! And the big badass fan thing!) are the most epic thing I've seen so far in Touhou.
