Counter-strike (mainly global offensive) because it's such a goofy aah aah game.

As someone who plays DanKagu casually, it's actually very fun. I may be biased, as I do enjoy mobile rhythm games, but DanKagu is definitely alot less p2w compared to Lost Word. Compared to Bandori, DanKagu doesn't make you use your boosts. Meaning, you can play for an infinite amount of time. Of course, If you don't boost you'll get next to nothing, but if you only really care about full combos and stuff that's not a problem. Boosts also don't affect how many daily fragments you get, or the rewards you get from completing what I assume are "Goals" of sorts for songs (I don't know Japanese, but the stuff you get for full comboing a song or getting a certain rank). Meaning, even if you don't use any of your boosts you still get the full amount of items you would normally get from those. The... Gacha rates aren't very good from my experience, But I don't usually have good luck with those things so I do have some sort of bias. You don't really NEED cards however, as they're really just there to boost your score or restore health. They are also alot less generous with rainbow crystals (or whatever they're called, the things you use to pull for cards). Then again, it would probably help to do the overworld stuff (i don't know what it's called but you just collect materials and build areas from Touhou like the Hakurei Shrine and stuff). Still, DanKagu's great if you just want to play casually. Hopefully they do get a global release though.

China skeet give me cyptodigger virus and pc turned into volcano.

I got into Touhou thanks to U.N. Owen Was Her and all the music videos like Cirno's Perfect Math Class, Bad Apple, Priere, etc. ૮₍ ´ ꒳ `₎ა I tried the games a long time ago but dropped all interest because I thought the games were too hard for me. Now my interest recently rekindled and I've been listening to a lot of songs and playing them for fun even if I suck at it lol. ꒰ ˶• ༝ •˶꒱

Great to see that we have similar interests with Resident Evil and The Witcher. I could talk for hours on how much I love them. I want to check out the extra star wars content that Count mentioned too, those events after Episode VI seem interesting. If you're both interested in hack and slash games with great stories, I would strongly recommend you both to try Nier Replicant and Automata. Even trying these games for the music alone is worth it. The funny thing is I discovered who Youmu was after finding cool artwork of 2B. Youmu is equally cool and is still one of my favourites. Now that I've talked about video games, I might discuss my favourite animes as well.

Fell for the "Bad apple on X" meme in early 2021 and the rest is history.

Wait I forgot about CapCom infamous Resident Evil Series: Do you like to shoot zombies? (L4D2) Or perhaps you also like puzzles and an interesting plot to get you in the edge of your seat? Fear not, Resident Evil 2 & Resident Evil 4 got you covered. (These two are especially the best out of all the series.) God Of War: You can't go wrong with it and have fun soldier. Side note: The Witcher series is on sale until March 2nd. You better grab your copies since it's 80% off with the low low price of 11.22 USD for the whole series. (I'm sounding a bit like a commercial guy)

I suppose in a way, yes. The only gatcha you have is the one for cards, and that's about it. Those cards, besides allowing you to get better scores and songs and stuff, aren't really necessary. You also have heroines as well, which you get fragments to level up. These fragments are either created with some rainbow looking puzzle piece, or received through things like the daily fragments you get for songs and events. The gacha system is still prevalent, but not as much as Lost Word. There probably is a power creep with cards, but honestly it's not noticeable unless you're into like, getting top scores and leaderboards for events.

Nice to finally see a comment on DanKagu. It really seems like an interesting game, has a lot of songs that I like, yet I really do not know how it works. You say it is less of a gacha game, and more of a rhythm game with gacha elements?

I've been wanting to talk about the flanderization of Parsee for a while now. Parsee is sometimes depicted as another psychopath who will curse and kill anyone she is slightly jealous over. It could be over literally anything no matter how small it is. I don't think any of this would actually happen though. I also don't think she'd be jealous 24/7 like some depict her, this would happen mostly while battling. I honestly think Parsee is really sweet and she easily became my favourite. Her dialogue in touhou 11 with Reimu and Marisa was mainly just giving a warning but she greeted them nicely. I love her design and her theme so much! Although, I can see why people don't like her if what I mentioned before or the memes were annoying. Cursing is part of the Hashihime's backstory but if I'm being honest, the characters in touhou aren't heavily bound by mythology. For example, regular oni's are depicted as evil and murderous, but Suika and Yuugi are some of the nicest in the series.

I did not know that is an actual depiction of Parsee in fanon. But to be fair, I really do not know how she depicted by fans in general outside of being jealous of anything. The straw doll cursing, together with the outfit used by Parsee in the PV, funny enough, is an actual thing in canon. It did appear at least twice, but however, it was never about our favorite Hashihime. First appearance of such an outfit (or at least a partial one), together with the associated nailing of straw dolls, appeared in Bohemian Archive in Japanese Red. It was part of the article about Alice ("Large Number of Straw Effigies Found in Forest Behind Shrine"), in which it was told about her nailing such dolls behind the Hakurei Shrine at night. More on the article can be found on the wiki, including a translation of it https://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Bohemian_Archive_in_Japanese_Red/Alice Second time I saw such on outfit, even if it was a brief appearance and without the intended purpose, was in Oriental Sacred Places. This time, it was Reimu wearing the Ushi no toki mairi costume. In context, this happened in Chapter 4: What's Under the Rocks (Part 2), during the test of courage scene (or in short, how everyone is trying to scare Youmu). With this, got to read a little bit out of the Three Fairies manga, and it look much more interesting and fun than I thought. Unironically, Reimu does actually look pretty good in that outfit. The chapter itself - https://mangadex.org/chapter/6a8c2b01-aece-43c4-a51e-4610ab6559a7/1 (good thing MangaDex still has the official manga translated in English) Nice to see them getting featured in fan games. However, I am not sure I actually saw them in Lost Word. What song do they have in there? As for Danmaku Kagura, I see it as almost impossible not to be in that game since it revolves around music, and Shinra-Bansho is quite a big group. They might also have songs in Touhou Spell Bubble?

My story of getting into Touhou is a bit long winded and has already been told on this forum, so I'll just link to it here instead. Something I can remember clearly is that as soon as those ZUNpets on the EoSD title theme kicked in for the first time I played that game, is the exact moment I knew I was getting into something very special.

Okay, so now that I have time to think about all this. Here is the next step forward in all this. First, the site will NOT die. We are still going to offer the same server we have been for the past few years. Second, we will be moving the site and the file server to a different country where the DMCA laws are a bit more...laxed. In the interim, since we can no longer host the files "directly", we will be providing other ways to offer the content that won't technically go against the DMCA notice. And lastly, i want to say thank you all for sticking by us all these years. We are glad that you still continue to come to us for all your Touhou needs. ?
