  1. From the album: Onigama Gou's Storage full of References

    Hey, guess what day it is? It's of course Clownpiece Day. Anyways, enjoy the holiday of the might but afraid to say that I won't be joining in. Regerds, have a good time lads.

  2. Another quick news roundup, given that maintenance starts in a matter of hours: News and updates Not too much besides the maintenance summary, to be honest. Epic Prayer continues, we are getting Fantasy Rebirth for Yuyuko and Suwako, new Scarlet Devil Tower content, retro SA Satori banner and 2nd rerun (third time overall) of Phantom-Human Maid for a Day (get ready to experience again all the Meiling abuse). Community discussions and memes Again, no big discussions going on these days. Instead, I will skip to the memes. Old discussion, but it is dubious how much Space/Hifuu Yorihime resembles the Yorihime design from KKHTA Not necessarily about Touhou LostWord, but still in the realms of gacha games. One day, we might even happen to have this discussion about LostWord itself...

  3. Not gonna lie, the topic in itself is actually interesting, and I've been thinking about it for a while. Particularly in the first half. So I will have to go through it piece by piece... Welcome to the community. Nice to see new people coming in and starting discussions on various topics. I have been talking a lot about this part in a dedicated thread. Short version of the thread, it was about me trying to understand the way and artistic choice of ZUN, and whether drawing everyone in these child proportions was intentional or not. Scratch that, there are actually 2 threads I would like to refer to: With this, perhaps I could revive discussion in the original threads as well. This whole thing reminds me of a couple memes I have seen recently. Trying not to stray far from the Terms of Service, the two memes I would like to refer to are the following: I am stil trying to understand the culture and appeal formed about the whole concept of "loli/lolicon" (and by further extension, that of "shota/shotacon" as well). Personally, I just do not see the appeal of it. Overall, this seems to be generally more a Japan thing, at least in terms of who is producing the themed art. I think it might be related to that temporary release of dopamine - but don't trust me, I pretty much failed biology and moved to Philology when I noticed I was much better at history and geography. Anyway, puberty is a weird part of our lives, very hard to understand. Even myself, at the age of 20, am still trying to understand what the hell happened to me through those years. It does not help either that I reprimanded, have not asked, kept secret or did not have who to talk to about the changes happening inside of me, so I might say I had a...perhaps crippled (?) development I have to recover from. Anyway, "life is strange". Oh, speaking of people having weird to say the least reactions. This is more than likely copypasta, but after all, all copypasta has something at its original - best copypasta is the one that evolves naturally, many times without you even having intended it to be as such (spoiler for rather obvious reasons): Perfect representation of the more degenerate side of the internet - and exactly the one I was talking about in the "why are Touhou fans so horny" thread weeks ago. Anyway, all I could tell to those people is... As for overall depictions, it is just what sells/brings in most attention and makes people want to watch your show. Numerous people have told me that many times anime works as a medium to escape from the harsh, shitty reality people live in. How much do you want to indulge yourself in this escapism, it is up to you. You just want something normally you would not have access to, at least that is how I feel it is. Additional lecture: Again, I think this might be related to what I just said in the previous paragraph. Personally, I do like the black, opaque thigh-highs. They are elegant, or just an element I tend to find attractive in terms of wardrobe (please don't judge me). They look good on a lot of characters, and can be fit with a lot of other accessories. On of the examples I really like comes from the artist Iganashi1 (even though I really like their art as a whole, especially their version of Eiki): As for overall canonical black thigh-highs, Nue has always been an interesting case. Black stockings, combines with short black hair made for combination that caught my attention for a while. Maybe not exactly the illustration drawn by ZUN in UFO, but there is a loot of good fanart that tends to outline the features and fashion style of the character (and characters in general). Yet another additional lecture:

  4. We recently had an issue that broke most of the fangame download links. This should no longer be the case. If you run into any issues still, let us know.
