It's very sad that these game shut down so quickly, I really do wish they got a proper global release. Yeah, Arcadia Record is made by a scummy company, as far as I've heard, but knowing my Touhou obsessed ass, I'll probably play it (Hell, I hate TLW yet I still play it bcuz, Touhou!!!) Speaking of mobile games, remember that Cave game that got announced like last year? Well, it's supposed to release this year! (In case you don't know who Cave is, it's a Japanese company which makes bullet hells, they're known for DoDonPachi) I do not know if this game will be a gacha game, but still good to know.

Sooo, here's some recent news on DanKagu... (lmfao) Honestly, I expected this, shame they never brought it over to the west tho (Why don't they do that immediately?)

Even if I haven't played many fangames, Frantically Forbbiden Fruit is my number 1 pick. It's a very fun fangame that has a really good soundtrack, is pretty easy and has a very neat gimmick! I just don't like how I have to pray that it doesn't set my laptop on fire every time I play it kekw

Reimu - You cannot convince me she isn't a zombie in Touhou 10, why is her skin so yellow? Maybe the Hakurei God revived her for MoF. Speaking of the Hakurei God, Reimu, you should be more interested in said God, maybe that's why you're poor xd As for me, my fav is Alice Margatroid!

ALRIGHTY! I played this game again just to see how it is in retrospective (hell, I just finished 1ccing it on easy), and I gotta say.. Not bad! While I did feel meh about it when it came out I'd be lying if I said stage 6 wasn't cool as shit. Yeah the danmaku may be a bit lackluster but holy hell, the background???? It's amazing! I still feel the same about it as I did 3 years ago. I like the music more, it's still not the best Touhou OST I listened to, but I do appreciate it more now. Also, I just adore the city/futuristic/cyber looking feel of stages 5 and 6. It could be just me, since I love that stuff, but hot damn it's some best stuff I've seen in a 2hu game. Overall it's honestly good. I don't really like the beast mechanic because it's similar to UFO, but hey, at least it's better here than in UFO. Also, No fuckin' way that this game is the second easiest lmfao, what? The easiest Touhou games IMO are like, 8 and 7 maybe? And also, patterns boring until stage 5??? Did this person see the Yachie patterns? They're more interesting than anything above stage 5.... Also yeah, the visibility in this game does suck, 16 had a similar problem. So yeah, in retrospective, it's a damn good 2hu. Not the best IMO, but still good. Also HANIPAGANDA GANDA HAHAHA HANIPA HANIPA HANIPANI MEGHAHDSKJHFKAUEIA HANIWA HANIYASUAHSFHAJKD

Ayyy, you managed to find me on that video! Good job! xP Yeah, it's me, even there I complained how much I miss the old Windows era :P this reminds me of how i found isaac on the LostWord server....

I remember being dissapointed when it came out. I was excited when I saw that the game will take place in Hell, and that it will overall have a darker feel. I immediately downloaded the trial on the day it came out and when I played it it was just.... meh? Idk why, it's like it was forgetabble. I didn't really like the music, and the only song I really listen to now from WBaWC is the stage 6 theme. Nowadays, I just have a neutral opinion on it, it's okay. ALSOOOOOoo When WBaWC got announced, a lot of fake leaks started popping around, with this song being one of 'em https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm34985779 I remember being so damn disapointed when I realized that it's fake lmfao, it's sounds better than the real title theme imo.

I'mma write some of my thoughts on the first anniversary, since I didn't rlly write anything here in a while. I liked the first anniversary! It looked very overwhelming to me, but it was okay. I pulled PCB Alice in 2 step-ups, and now she's my favorite friend. So in terms of pulls, I didn't suffer that much. I also got PCB Yukari in 3 10-pulls. I also did a step up for Keiki, and got her twice in one pull! And considering she is an EX tier, I am very happy. As for the story, I was... Dissapointed with the finale of CH3. It was very anti climactic for me. Like, in Part 1 and 2, you had a very urgent feel to the whole story, but from part 3 onwards, nothing. It just made me very sad. Overall, it was pretty nice! We got tons of resources. I also put my email for the fumo and other 2hu merch giveaway, so I hope I win. Also....

Inspired by this post: https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php?topic=3086.30 Another 2hu discussion by me! Yaaaay This time, it's about them epic shot types in Touhou games. I'll be including games in which I remember said shot types, because, sometimes I haven't played the game that much to remember the shots. ^^; I'll also include PC98 games. So, let us start! HRtP: Reimu (lol) SoEW: The best is probably the movement type (ReimuA), since when you spam the fire key, you're OP as fuck. As for the worst, mmmmaybe the offensive type (ReimuC)? Too slow for my taste. MS: Mima or Marisa for the best, Reimu for the worst. EoSD: MarisaA best, ReimuA worst. PCB: MarisaB or A tied as best, SakuyaB or ReimuA worst. IN: Magic Team best, and I'd say the Border Team is the worst, I don't like them. Honestly, for IN, I like all the types. While I did play PoFV quite a lot, I still haven't unlocked Komachi or Eiki, so I will be skipping it. SA: ReimuA best, MarisaC worst. TD: Sanae or Youmu best, can't see who's the worst tho... DDC: SakuyaA SOLOS, ReimuA is the worst for me. LoLK: Sanae SOLOS EVERYONE. Even Reisen. (Reisen fucking SUCKS imo) HSiFS: Marisa + Winter is the best IMO, CirnoSummer might be the worst. UM: Everyone except Sakuya is good lmao So that's for me, what are your thoughts on this?

Hmmm, ever since I first got into Touhou I asked myself this, and.... I still don't know the answer lmao I love how Hakugyokurou looks, but I don't wanna be a phantom. In fact, most of the locations I like are *real* bad for humans (I like Makai, Hell, Hakugyokurou/Netherworld). I like Old Hell too, I'm guessing that one is kinda okay (although I think my liver wouldn't be okay if I go there). Only place I would be somewhat safe at the Human Village, but afaik, outsiders are not protected under the Spell Card rule. Soooooo, idk, probably Netherworld, or the Former Capital?

I love the camera games. Both StB and DS for me are so fun, even if they are harder. Also DS first photo theme slaps so hard. Actually, I think I might prefer spinoffs to the main games oops

I still love Touhou. Touhou, for me, has always been a source of joy. A few months ago, I was feeling pretty scared and anxious about, idk, something I guess, and Touhou managed to calm me down and improve my mood several times. Touhou music in general makes me feel relaxed, and even playing the games sometimes relaxes me if im playing stages 1 through 3. Ever since I first saw Touhou in 2016 it was always fun to explore about it. And yeah, I do think it is on a decline a bit (although I adore UM), but I'll still love the series no matter what. I love the games, the characters, music, lore. It all just makes me so happy.

Oh damn, really? Didn't know that, hope it works.

Mannnn, online multiplayer would be fun af, especially if it's like via Steam or something like that. Maybe there's still more stuff to be done? Who knows... Also unrelated but UM was so damn fun because of those cards!

Hello, I'm finally online after several weeks! I've been thinking about Touhou 19 for a while now, thinking of what's it gonna be, the gimmicks, what characters are gonna appear and so on. I will admit that I am a bit impatient with waiting for a new 2hu title, especially since the last one came out, *looks at calendar* a year ago holy shit So yeah, I like to imagine what things will appear next lol Personally, I'd like the game to be a Phantasmagoria styled game, we haven't had that one since almost 20 years ago (lol), and honestly, the Phantasmagoria games are really damn fun imo (even if the AI is unfair a bit at times). And if it's a bullet hell, I'd like a calm story, honestly (like EoSD, I'd say that game was pretty calm compared to, let's say, IN, SA or LoLK). What would you guys like in 19?

Honestly, I want Alice to appear in any way, shape or form... Or maybe even Meiling... I love those 2 so much and I really want to see them playable in a game!

Yeah, I really like the story in this. But I completely lost the interest in the Hakugyokurou chapter when Letty appeared. Before that I felt a sense of dread and emergency. Now? Absolutely nothing lmfao

RETRO ALICE IS FINALLY COMING!!! She's coming on my birthday too!!! I'm so excited for her!! Although, if I'm gonna be honest, seeing the 1st anni update picture makes me feel overwhelmed af ^^;, I don't know how I'm gonna keep my seal crystal count above 1000 lmfao

Also, I know that this is a bit off-topic, but I forgot how bad the drop rates are for units with seal crystals. I'm trying to get Yuuka with them (Since I spent like 300+ god crystals, and I got mostly dupes :c) and no luck.. Meanwhile I got Eiki with a standard 10 pull hehe Another thing is, while I don't like the power creep, I honestly do like the retro units, and I hope to see PC98 charas too (A few days ago I dreamt that Konngara was in TLW and I tried pulling for her xd), I mostly get them because I want them, rather than meta power thing.

Honestly, while I do like the instrumentals and such, I have very mixed feelings for Stack. It took me like 15 listens to start loving Necromantic, and the vocals on that song have grown on me now, I like the vocals a lot. Same goes for WARNINGxWARNINGxWARNING, took a lot of listens to get used to the vocals, but now I really like the song. I just don't like the "weow", and just the "nasally" thing Stack does (listen to WARNINGx3, you'll probably get what I mean), although I do think her range is incredibly impressive, and as someone who sang in a choir before, I wish I had that range lmfao And this coming from someone who likes IOSYS, and they have a shitton of songs which are high pitched and stuff like that (Scarlet Police, Cirno's Math Class, even Alice->Dere) and I don't really mind them. Surprisingly I liked the new Flandre song immediately when I heard it for the first time, I just didn't like the beginning (because of the "weow" thing), which is a first for an Akatsuki song. Although, I do agree that if I ignore the nasally voice, Stack can really be amazing, I was listening to Hanipaganda and holy hell, the "Hanipa Hanipa ganganganda" part is amazing, holy shit, the soft vocals on the funny dokidoki wakuwaku song are really nice imo (I liked those from the start), and she can really make me feel amazed when I listen to those songs. So idk, like I said, I have real mixed feelings with Stack, but the instrumentals are really good.

Here's Marisa and a freehand watercolor Meiling!
