You kids and your Tohou. Back in my day you were lucky enough to see a Flandre. People once said you couldn't make it past Remilia..
Lol. I've never played the games but the fan art is amazing for the series. I like the Scarlet family and that whole part of the story. Flandre's wings are neat!

♥10710 ✿4708 ★52 I like the Touhou games a lot (Aspect Legend contains a bit of an homage to them), but they're really too hard for me most of the time  |

Bullet hell games aren't exactly my thing so I never really gravitated towards them. But they do reach the "Kafuka Seal of a Approval™" in difficulty. I just find how it has so much love in the fan community you would think it had seasons of anime and hundreds of manga issues.

♥10711 ✿4708 ★52 Posted by EmuzOh yeah-- it's amazing about how much of the characterization of these characters are from the fan works, not the games at all |

Indeed. Just pictures alone, Pixiv has millions of illustrations under the Touho (kanji) tag. Not to mention places like wallbase has a fair amount too. It's neat to see how it's grown from simple PC-98 (and other systems later of course) sprites to fully flesh out characters with distinct personalities.

Do you realize how long it took me to realize Tohou was a bullet hell game series?
I thought Touhou was all about cute anime girls just for the sake of cute anime girls for years. |

Posted by Robbie RageI know exactly how you feel! I was the exact same for ages, it was a bullet hell "fake screenshot" artwork that put the missing piece in for me. The world could always use more heroes! |

I can't relate here, I heard Touhou music before I even knew Touhou. so I learnt about the game before being exposed to the lolkawaii fanbase.
Posted by Emuz for the personality thing, most of it is based on canon stuff. there's how they act in the games (free character choice means more dialogue) and with ZUN adding in detail through interviews and such, thier personalities are pretty much set in stone. fan works generally follow faithfully. I noticed we're very nearing 2000 threads. are we doing anything at all? |

♥10729 ✿4708 ★52 Posted by Thieppy There is still a lot of Touhou music I more strongly associate with SMW romhacks than anything else |

I never ran into any SMW hacks using Tohou music. BUT I didn't play many of them. I guess I kinda dropped out of ROM hacking when that was the big deal. I'm not surprised due to the quality music.

For those who are into it: How did you even discover Touhou?
I feel like I've never heard of a single game, but suddenly it's all over the place. How does that work? |

Posted by Thieppy That's not entirely accurate. I'm referring to the massive upswing in popularity in the States within the past 15 years or so when there hasn't really been a regular, well known game release for a major console back then. Hence, my question. In hindsight, my previous post really didn't make that clear. Whoops. |

Heh, I like how Americans used to detest Soccer and think it wasn't a real sport too, now it's growing in popularity  Especially among girls and women (3 Women's World Cups, 1991, 1999 and 2015  )"Miracles happen, when you believe..."

Posted by Robbie Rage I discovered it through a Japanese Mcdonalds meme back in 2012, but I became a fan of it in 2015 after to listening to more of the OST's and playing more of the games. |
