While I have the player titles/skill verdicts from Touhou 1, 4 and 5 posted here, the ones from Touhou 2 were never posted, since I always relied on the fact that they were already documented on the wiki and in other places. But oh well, for consistency purposes, here they are, taken from en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Story_of_Eastern_Wonderland/Translation.

神を超えた巫女！！ → The shrine maiden beyond divinity!! もはや神の領域！！ → In the divine realm!! Ａ級シューター！！ → A-class shooter!! バニラはーもにー！→ Vanilla harmony! うきうきゲーマー！→ Cheerful gamer! どきどきゲーマー！→ Heart-racing gamer! 要練習ゲーマー → Gamer who needs practice 非ゲーマー級 → Not quite gamer-level ちょっとだめ → Eh, nope 非人間級 → Not quite human-level 人間でない何か → Something other than a human 死んでいいよ、いやいやまじで → Just die, no seriously

The names of the first three Touhou games are:

東方靈異伝　～ (The) Highly Responsive to Prayers

東方封魔録　～ (The) Story of Eastern Wonderland

東方夢時空　～ (The) Phantasmagoria of Dim.Dream

I've put "the" in brackets because in official media, there are instances with and without the definite article.

Title screens

The title screen of Touhou 1 says The Highly Responsive to Prayers and the title screen of Touhou 3 says The Phantasmagoria of Dim. Dream. Story of Eastern Wonderland has only the Japanese part of the name in the title screen (see /tagged/title2).

Mystic Square references

In Mystic Square's "Touhou Project All Cast" which appears after the ending scenes of the extra stage, the names are as follows:

「東方靈異伝」　～ Highly Responsive to Prayers

「東方封魔録」　～ The story of eastern wonderland

「東方夢時空」　～ The Phantasmagoria of Dim.Dream

Akyu's Untouched Score

The page listing the tracks from Akyu's Untouched Score 5, 3, and 4 have the names of the games as follows:

東方靈異伝　～ Highly Responsive to Prayers

東方封魔録　～ the Story of Eastern Wonderland

東方夢時空　～ Phantasmagoria of Dim.Dream

Besides not being the well-known name with the japanese part, it should be noticed that this part also were once as subtitle.

I am aware of it, but I did not feel it would be relevant to that particular post. The sentence "The Story of "HUMA" in Eastern Wonderland", appears before every stage and since it's visibly different than "(The/the) Story of Eastern Wonderland", I did not include it there.
