PoFV's more of a curve for how it does against the computer, rather than just Aya & Medicine being OP and the rest being average. On Normal, these two aren't nearly as busted as they are on higher difficulty, due to the reduced amount of stuff you're sending back at your opponent
Anyway, while it's harder to maintain combos & score on Normal, you should try staying unfocused & focusing to trigger spirits & one shot them, moving around & trying to get a combo. A good enough score can ensure you a Round 4 Eiki (the treshold in which she usually dies earlier, Round 2-3 Eiki usually lasts 3 minutes, Round 4 shaves 30 seconds off at least).
It's not too farfetched to Round 1 any of Marisa (I think that's Reimu's Round 6), Aya or Komachi, but the way its done is different. PoFV's CPU seems more resilient the faster they are, hence why Aya can take you 3+ minutes on Round 1. On the other hand, her level 2 and 3 are both aimed, and her boss' only mild annoyance is the bullet vomit she throws every now & then. You can definitely get into a groove and beat her, or at least use her to score a lot, even on Normal. Komachi is harder, but is more likely to give you a lucky Round 1. You can stall around barely shooting anything against Round 2-3 Eiki as to delay her offense, which should start around 0:45 or 0:50.
Someone more savvy on PoFV can probably add/correct me on a few things, I just go off game feels, but I do have 2 non Aya/Medi Lunatic 1ccs. Although PoFV feels completely different on Normal vs Lunatic or even Hard. For example I barely mentioned avoiding being stationary which is critical in harder difficulties because of all the white bullets cluttering towards you, but it's barely a thing on Normal. You could also try Reisen, who is among the starting 5, has a Level 1 that obliterates Lily, and fights Medicine instead of Aya (Medicine on Normal is really not too bad. The relative lack of white bullets on Normal really cripples her meager offense).
