  • Hello to all the new people! It seems like there has been a great influx of new Shrine denizens, and unfortunately I was not around to greet them. Nonetheless, I feel glad there's new blood in here

    (also yeah, I am the accidental source of the AMA trend; it is actually a fun way in which we could learn about new people)

    Alright, so what the heck has been going on with this place recently? We used to be so much more silent and chill on the forum...

    It looks to be some judgmental fellow decided to make a provocative thread as bait. Seems to be fishing for specific responses to then moral grandstand towards them. Besides that, nothing major.

    Here is the thing though. Our fellow, who used to be better known in the past as "Sir I", made another similar, religiously-charged comment in a thread of mine right at the end of last year (direct link to his comment). And from there, another brief shitshow occurred, but luckily that one ended before it could degenerate (despite a few spicy exchanges in the replies).

    Ah, wasn't aware of the name change, figured they were just some rando coming in to start something for the sake of it. Honestly, if they have such a negative perspective on fans, the content they enjoy, and so on, I wonder why they even continue to stick around here.

    Is the bot spam thing still going, or we are finally safe?

    To be honest, I never saw any bots in the first place, and if I did, it would've been just one that I forgot. But I really don't think we'll ever be safe from bots anyway, they'll probably always be there as long as the internet exists.

    This is a good question, I forgot about the bot spam era actually. I think that means we're in the clear now.

    Happy New Year! For a few days, I will probably take a break from opening up new threads here at the Shine. However, I will continue answering to the ones I already stated

    I think I dud it. I actually made a thread so niche that nobody really knows what to add to it besides me. Maybe the Amagami thread was a mistake...

    I don't think it's a mistake at all. It's always nice to hear about other stuff that you guys like and I've had fun learning about the series so far!

    I don't think is a mistake tbh

    You got me really interested into Amagami, when i watch it i'll try talking about something there, but honestly, this one has been my favorite thread so far, since i'm enjoying seeing the characters you add there, i admire your effort into it and i really like the thread!

    The forum really ha not been so active recently. Is everyone busy, or I just have too much free time?

    Drowning in translation work as per usual, but I check in when I can. It doesn't help though, that one of my playthroughs on YouTube has evidently been latched onto by a prominent Japanese source, which is bringing in an insane number of views and comments now; more than everything else on my channel added together. (*_*)

    Oh damn, your channel has been blessed. What video was it?

    My Street Fighter Zero 3 Double Upper playthrough with Ingrid essentially, which makes no sense at all since she is not only the most hated character in the franchise, at least in the West, I'm not exactly that good with her either. (^_^;)

    It's been 6 months already. People are still doing "Touhou fans be like" videos? I wonder when "Touhou slander" will become a thing

    That one actually sounds funny compared to the avarege "I want muh Touhou mommies"

    wtf this is actually good, I love it 
    when I was talking about overused stuff going on for 6 moths now, I meant stuff like this 



    As for the car danmaku thing, I would actually love to see that turned into a game. It sounds like a fun concept

    I was not expecting to create such a ruckus in here with the most recent thread. Perhaps I have gone a little too far with my question and opinion

    Don't worry Count, I appreciate that you brought the topic up. I wondered about it myself and I  share similar opinions with what you mentioned.

    Will you tackle the the topic of Kinema-kan, Touhou PVDs as those were very good in 2009-2011 they're short but full of quality so, I suggest this might be a good topic to cover as of why they disappeared? (Although, we might get an obvious answer) and what're your favs in there. I have the ability of baffled speech so, will you take it Count?

    You mean go into brief overviews of the old content? I do have some of those videos saved up in a playlist, so I guess it would be time to sort them up and give them a rewatch. I do not know so much about the technical side and behind the scenes for them, but I can at least offer impressions about those I know 

    Gou the frog

    Indeed, it could be worthwhile, if we're lucky, we might attract some veterans if not well, I'm happy to do the research, this's going to be fun to answer. 

    Count, I got a very interesting video explaining about what happen to "Tohou music Channels?" Oh, it's the same person who uploaded "The Touhoucon failure" (Frogs are so cool)

    I have seen this video yesterday. Thank you though 

    I found this reddit post about listed unofficial touhou 'anime' looks very well though out.




    How and why is (Touhou) Cookie still a thing?

    CountVonNumenor
    CountVonNumenor
    Oh, not that kind of Cookies. I should have meant Touhou Cookies*

    well.....
    we can't really stop them...
    i mean.. what can we do? it's like telling people to stop being stupid. it's useless.
    and considering they are quite popular in their own territory and most of them are anon, makes things harder.
    that said about territory, both fandom seems to silently agree to separate the two factions, let them roam in their own area.
    best you can do is just to avoid them and hope one or two followers regained their sanity.

    Beats me. Can't really do much about it though.

    If we are the Moriya Shrine, then who is the Hakurei Shrine?

    Gou the frog
    Gou the frog
    Clearly a question that needed answered. (Maybe Hakurei Shrine was from the past something like Vine that we haven't heard of yet)

    I am familiar to the Maidens of the Kaleidoscope forum. I felt very tempted to join it at the time I joined Moriya, but I saw it was not active and so limited myself to this one
