Holy shit that's quite an extreme, isn't it? Well, I guess such people exist as well. Honestly. I still don't know why Global was so desperate to rush its content and try to get up to date with JP (besides money of course). It's not like the original server was 1 year ahead in terms of content or something. Everyone says that the bad for GLB started in November, when EoSD Reimu came out followed by 6 back-to-back UFES characters (the Lunar War versions of the protagonists). And from there on, the almost desperate need of Global in trying to stay up to date with the latest recolored powercreep unit JP released just days before. Before, the biggest controversy people saw was when Suika (the first character that ever got the S+ tier) and Scarlet Marisa came back to back, or when the Mysterious Sword Master banner was received a a scam due to what units came quickly afterwards. Which brings me back to the old tier list from June year I presented in previous thread page. Anyway, in this rush, we skipped a lot (at least 10) general pool units, and a few regular FES ones. I will come back a bit later once I find a bit more info. I've read some interesting stuff yesterday, and I want to see if I can find it again and place here.

Other than the fact that most of her donations her sake, my allowance is higher than her. A high school student one that is. Oh, and the new outfit in WbaWc looks some mammal had a nice time sleeping with. Oh dear, haven't seen you before you're a that witch marisa right? Oh nevermind cause you "spend most of your time alone" on the banished realm of forgotten character. I thought the Yama would be big and intimidating but what we got was rather underwhelming. Also what is with that scarecrow like stance? And I ran out of fuel, feel free to roast Hina.

From what I managed to check yet, it seems like the latest, temporary free full release of the M1 Grand Prix has a number of the comedy skits I have mentioned. Particularly YuuTen Paradise and Moriya Kero. They have been re-released with the latest graphics, but also got some changed in terms of script. I can either let you watch and see what is different, or go into further detail later. The video will be available for free until the 31st of August.

This info coming from the comments of the big Reddit thread might flip some of the data we were aware of It is interesting to see that despite its reputation, Touhou apparently does not have so much content of the kind within its own tag, while other series go close to 50% of their fan-made cotent be NSFW. Also, please let's get things straight, once and for all. I am not condemning the creation of any sort of R18 materials, since I am perfectly fine with some of them. My only thing is about people when they start acting like immature monkeys around mature stuff. Like all those people who act as if they never saw a woman in their lives. Or those who believe bland, generic, cookie-cutter video formats (there literally is a format to which you only need to insert the photos you want and voila, the video is done) with cropped Touhou hentai represent peak Touhou content. I will probably not comment on POV/wish-fulfilment images like the kind Fusu creates (I really is his safe for work art, as he has not drawn anything safe since November last year). I am not familiar enough with that format, and also do not really want to anger anyone if my take on it is bad. Instead, I will link two discussions I have seen recently on both the annoying YouTube videos and wish-fulfilment art. From here, it is up to you to decide. "No anon, your waifu doesn't love you or as you go out with her, or go into any sort of romantic confession to a complete foreigner. No anon, your waifu will not allow or want you touch her in inappropriate places. No anon, your waifu will not beg you have sex with her" I think this ending paragraph sums up what I feel about the general horniness of Internet users rather well to be honest.

Alright, with everything in mind and some small updated, time to bring again the news roundup. News and updates LostWord JP has announced their next UFES unit. This time, it will be Hifuu version Patchouli. Just like the simulation, expect her to arrive on Global in a matter of weeks at most. "That just leaves Butler Koakuma for the E universe. Hopefully most of the Chapter 4 characters are SFes and not EFes. I’m definitely sure Moon Seiran and Ringo are SFes. Mage Patchouli is most likely an Attack type unit." (u/WWWWWWRRRRRYYYYY, usual announcer on r/touhou_lostword whenever something new is announced) Meanwhile, LW Global received the Ten Desires/Touhou 13 retro version of Toyosatomimi no Miko. We also got Interlude Finale (which I still have not played yet), and are expected to get the first act of Chapter 4 the coming week. Community discussions and memes This time, I also made a contribution to the discussions of the community, in the form of a thread. Given the weird patter Global has moved on in terms of releases and event schedule, I wanted to see how much we are behind JP and what we have skipped in order to rush a number of characters at the price of translating story and card. If we are looking at the following schedule, things are interesting. If "(Anniversary)" does indeed refer to 1 Year Anniversary, then it means we might be getting some of these events like Horismriver's March or Summer Horrors soon. However, people are concerned after this point, a lot of the listed events are becoming either a follow-up to what we got in the first year, or are basically rehashes (like how they were talking about the Okuu and Orin maid outfits being like the third maid at the SDM event we got). We are also in the weird situation of having released costumes on Global that do not have yet the character for them, stories without character banners (still looking at you, Interlude, and no Sumireko despite her being the oldest General unit we did not get yet) or just outfits shoved in without their specific event coming out yet. But more on that a bit later. Somebody proposed a PvE mode for LostWord. I am not sure about how viable it sounds, but there have been some opinions on how would you make that work. After all, this is a single player game, but which for some reason still needs internet connection to work. Everybody is confused about the age of MC, especially now after Interlude. To be fair, the game made it slightly more complicated because in Hifuu you have MC being someone giving all the signs of being in college, while in the main story, she is of very ambiguous age. In the main story, everyone treats her like a child, and then there is also the enigmatic figure which appeared in Alice's Fantasy Rebirth portrait (theorized by some to be the main character). Discussion ensued: The discussion about LostWord made its way from the general gacha subreddit to r/touhou_lostword. More interesting comments from this side as well. @Isaac you might find this one interesting. It is a discussion about Parsee and people waiting for her to get to Global. For me, it is interesting because people raised some good points in regards to the absence of a large amount of General units as well: The first one: And there is one more interesting comment, from the same u/WWWWWWRRRRRYYYYY Yeah, there is still quite a bit we are waiting for, not gonna lie...

The interlude is just seem not make sense in many ways like where is other sage character, why reimu and other are spreads the rumors or how is everyone not questioning about how f1 reimu just appear even though they just meet the L1 version,.... And yes most if not all character are build by fanon lore ( meiling, sakuya, aya, dai, ...) So it feel like a different person with only their names. That thing is mentioned somewhere in the thread but i forgot the source For the JP is worse than GLB gacha is idk, JP have like release ufes, Efes with general friend in between so if you want to get all ufes or maybe Mvfes is possible if you skip all general or festival friend. But global is, well, release ufes after efes after mvfes is not giving enough time to save resources so skip is a must if you want to get your fav character ( some defense are like 130 pulls or everyone win campaign is just a way to "comprehensive" the lost time that we can not get the cubes ). Now it just well be like Eos early and well leave with the money from banner Quite irony is the rebirth akyuu thing because in the fb THLW global community, there is one maniac who say that he is married to his akyuu and threatened everyone if they just joke about his waifu.

have a funny feeling to collect this year work from everyone else. This is going to range from memes to stuffs you don't normally see. I'm going to review them if I have time. We got a familiar face here. Presenting @sodaodaoda for the amazing anniversary speedpaint. What amazing compositions. I have to agree with Buaskerdog on Patchy and Koakuma ones being our favorites. I see that you've included details like respective bosses spell cards and patterns. In any case, I've also noticed the timestamp perfectly two, three minutes with the exception of 6. 7. 8. For your first speedpaint, you didn't pull any punches. The description is also very placed. Overall truly a brilliant project from you. And we have the lad with the overview of Touhou 6, the man who started this business. Watching this made me feel refreshed and that lad really moved the community. As usual, it's quality I assure you. Yes, we have a Shanghai Teahouse Remix lads. I was wondering when this will show up. (Must Ignore my inner Meiling) As energetic as one would expected. Not bad at all. Still, I think it need more piano in some parts. Well, very good indeed.

Apologies I'm quite late, what I do have is a drawing related to the subject. just something I'd like to share Don't worry the cake was made using normal ingredients

Yo, thx for telling me! I updated my title and the description. My video got 100 views in less than 24 hours, considering how small my channel is, I am super proud of this. I've never been more happier with myself. Also, this video is so damn cool: What a cool mod, super awesome!!

Sharing a banger for EoSDay ; )

Today is "EoSDay", the 20th anniversary of Touhou 6! To commemorate the occasion I released a short fangame that re-imagines the early stages of the game. It's a metroidvania-like twin-stick shooter where you explore the Scarlet Devil Mansion and fight in bullet hellish combat, and it even features a boss fight! The music was arranged by Forger343. You can find the game (and additional screenshots) here: https://buskerdog.itch.io/touhou-scarlet-labyrinth. The planned idea was a game where you could explore the entire mansion and fight all of its iconic residents in homage to Touhou 6, but I never would have had enough time to finish all of that by the anniversary date, so instead I focused on just the first part of the game. I also had to cut down on certain other quality enhancements. Nevertheless I received some very positive feedback, and I may update the game in the future to encompass the complete idea I had originally envisioned! However I may also decide not to, it depends... Still, I hope you all enjoy the experience I prepared! Happy EoSDay!

There has been a video which caught my attention recently. It is not about the 2hus we are all so familiar with, but the miscellaneous drawings ZUN has done over time. They are all available on the wiki, and I might cover each in a different thread. Until then though, I would like to focus on a specific one, and the description ZUN wrote for it: "Zun008.JPG" (2001/05/20) Translated Name: Blonde Shrine Maiden From a Future Era I wanted to draw a "poster shrine maiden." My original concept was to truly draw a sultry, adult-looking shrine maiden for once. No, really. (^^; But it turned out to be a young girl. (lol) It's just that since I was drawing a poster girl, I wanted something that would grab and entice with vivid colors and a subtle expression on the girl. But I guess it's a pointless picture. (^^; I honestly find it funny that ZUN actually tried drawing an adult, but still ended up with a child. Or how someone put it into a joke (paraphrasing now), "even when ZUN wants to draw an adult, he still ends up with a loli" ("legal loli"/woman with small breast size or small in stature or not, this is left to be interpreted by the viewer). Even if I said I will only cover a single one, there is one more I would like to point out the text for: "Zun006.JPG" Translated Name: Training on Mt. Haku This time I drew a shrine maiden in the middle of training. Even though mountains are usually off-limits to females. So she's training to ease the desire to go there as a last resort. Or just training in general, like a shrine maiden does. Hmmm, I'm starting to draw more properly. But anyway, I don't really like doing anime-style coloring so I used a more hand-drawn method. When I saw that, I initially thought he was referring to overall drawing in anime-style, but I see it is not more about coloring and I guess shading. Still a little bit of an insight about the way ZUN decided to draw his characters. Anyway, for anyone interested, the video is here. I might create a separate thread at some point to bring here all the images that also have a description, as they depict quite an interesting part of the evolution in artstyle (especially since many of these predate EoSD and might be called an evolution towards what would end up in the official games we all know and love).

Yeah when i found out about sariel (i stumbled upon album with this single) i instantly went off to listen it because she's pretty much my favorite 98 character, i only wish it would be her 2nd theme Civilization of Magic (one of top 10 themes in whole 2hu for me) but it was great experience regardless!

huh, didn't know that. the more you know

The fashion style is definitely unique, but it's been that way since the start of the series. Perhaps it's because ZUN wanted the game to stand out so people would vuy hil as the games were made to promote his music so it would make sense that he would want to keep the games special and unique compared to other games, and perhaps that also explains his musical style
