    Now you've got me interested in checking out Udongein X.

    Trust me, for 5 bucks it's worth the money for the polish and gameplay. Also tip if you want to get the costumes. Master the deathbombs for the shining needle castle.

     

     

    And one thing that you probably don't know about tenkko is that if you put in 20040815 in the sound test. You unlock her touhou 9 outfit.

     

    And you also earned another subscriber, I can even help with some games if you need a number 2. I like helping

    same honestly, im far too obsessed with these characters haha. last really good one i read was "rise of the evening star", one written back in 2013 on maidens of the kaleidescope forum. its very good, detailing an oc villain who doesnt follow spell card rules. the quality of the villain itself is debatable, but they did a good job making a villain who is op but can still fail, and man is it satisfying whenever the protagonists get a good hit in against her. i reccomend.

    i've read a few touhou fanfics, mostly loved being meiling, would recommend for all the fans of our favorite gatekeeper. or marshmallow loving fairies

    Now, the only reason why people call Uzaki a loli isn't because she's short but it's because the proportions of her face and her head are the same as a child : round face, the eyes are way too big and the mouth is too close of her eyes

    Sorry for separating this accidentally pressed send. They did both "she's short, therefore she's a loli, therefore she's a child" and that for her artstyle makes her look like a kid, which I would agree with if not for seeing the page that introduced her.

     

     

    Now for the loli phenomenon, I honestly didn't know that. I have met people who are adults who do look like kids, most vividly a friend I was with in high school who was 17 but looked 11 and had to carry a passport around to prove her age. So I simply thought that some Asians can look like children in their teens or twenties.

    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

    in japan a lot of adults do look like kids (mainly girls) , which is one of the main causes of the loli phenomenon. as for shota, my thoughts is that a lot of japanese people decided to do equality in that if girls could look really young in japan, then boys should do.

     

    it's like the uzaki problem where a lot of people kept calling this a loli all because she's short.

    Maybe. To me, Raiko's art (if we mean the cuts one one and not tiny battle sprite),  she really does not look like being in her 20s. Or maybe I'm stuck with the trope (which official Touhou,  as well as fanart sometimes failed to disprove) of everyone looking like being 14-16 (your average anime protagonist age). Maybe fanart did a better job with other images of her,  and it's debatable what age you'd give her based on the cameo sprite from 15.5. But ZUN art? To me,  it still fails to show that age. 

    and kanako? you never really said anything about her

    If you mean about Raiko looking like a teenager, then I would say so. She does not really look like an adult. Or now we are talking about semantics, and "young adult" is a weird word I tend to associate more with those of the age of 16-18 instead of anything up to the age of 25

    Guess we have different definitions of young adult. She looks like she's in her early 20's to me

    Wasn't Remilia's link to Vlad Tepes revealed to be a complete lie though!? (^_~)

    yes it was but i posit the idea that no one took her seriously and heard about ol drac and decided to pretend to be his daughter for some charisma points

    Apparently for some, anything that is "not from Japan itself" is counted as part of the "western community", basically splitting the larger group between JP and everyone else. (Oh, also I knew MTB is from Malaysia, given the channel details) 

    huh, didn't know that.


    the more you know
