First I forgot to bring this up before but both of the photos you showed look exactly the same. They might as well be twins it's so similar. 

Now back on track. Yeah I haven't beaten the game once. I'm more into rpgs like Pokemon and Fire Emblem (Though admittedly I've only played Gaiden)

Considering how horrible both men kind of are...

There is a wide world of RPGs.  Big name companies, second or third party devs, independents, indie freeware...  J-style, West-style, Tactics, Action...  The genre of the world; whether you have a large collection of possible party members, a small party, or just one character; any minigames, freedom of exploration, how linear the plot is...
I love the genre.  But after a while sometimes it can be just 'bland' without some unique mechanic or element.

I've only got minor experience with bullet hell games because I basically only play ones that have an aesthetic I like. I actually find the genre enjoyable, but I dislike games where you're using a spaceship or an airplane and much prefer it when you're using some type of anime-style character with magic powers who flies around, so I don't end up playing a lot of the conventional ones.

So less Ikaruga, more Touhou?
I don't think I'd be able to tell past the bullets.
