Who is your favorite Touhou character, Graywilde? Do any of you play the games or listen to arranges?
I like Youmu because she is cute and her boss theme is really catchy. Dualism is a central theme of her character. She is dorky but persistent, selfish but kind, half ghost but afraid of ghosts. In Touhou 09 she is randomly killing spirits wandering around because there isn't enough room in the netherworld for them, and then not too long later in the Three Fairies manga she is complaining about ghosts being mistreated when they are used to cool a watermelon. I also like that her name is written as "bewitching dream" (妖夢).

Also, is anyone else looking forward to the new game? There's not much info yet besides a few vague Twitter postings and drawings but it looks like it's gonna be a spooky urban legend themed subgame starring Marisa. If it's a game about spooky stuff starring Marisa then I think ZUN might really bring Mima back this time.

I was gonna post this in /a/ but I think the only other person browsing there besides me is the CP spambot.

My favourite Touhou character is Ikiko from Yo Nide! Kaga

She's so cute and kind of tsundere but she owned those Kiji Sprites.

I was reading some posts on TenTonneOtaku about production of the new game. Apparently Ichigo Katsahura is co-designing. I am very excited.

I was very excited to see that someone had replied but then I realized it was someone posting sarcastically. You broke my heart, Gaius, you big bully.

She is cute but she is from im@s, not Touhou. I have to admit I don't know much about idols.

Touhou Project is a series of indie bullet-hell shooting games created by the one man doujin circle Team Shanghai Alice. It is noted for its almost entirely female cast, catchy BGM tracks, and huge amount of derivative works. It's also notable for discarding the usual science fiction themes of other similar STGs in favor of a Japanese fantasy/magical girl setting. Many of the characters are based on monsters (youkai) from Japanese folklore.

I like Wriggle.

Mima's return wouldn't matter to me and I don't know why people like her so much.

In our darkest hour, Führer Mima will make her glorious return and save us all from the casuals and secondaries and usher Gensokyo into a new golden age. Just you wait.

Shitposting aside I just want to see more PC-98 characters brought back. It's always exciting.

Wriggle's portrait with her cape and the way she stands always made me think of that one Futurama episode with the robot opera. I don't know why.

It turns out the new game is just another fighter. I am profoundly disappointed.

Is that you jewbanker?

Anyways, my favourite Touhou is Nitori because I am Nitori.

I've been keeping my finger on the pulse of Touhou since 2006, though less so these days. I liked reading all the written material like Cage in Lunatic Runagate and Curiosities of Lotus Asia. Those fleshed out the characters a bit more than the games ever do, but still leaves them vague enough to be doujin fuel.

As for favourite character it's hard to choose, though I always like the lazy bitch portrayal of Reimu.

I can't stand most of the fanon portrayals of the characters. Mostly because the same vagueness of personality that makes the series such ballza doujinshi fodder to begin with also makes a lot of lazy writers Flanderize the heck out of the Touhous down to just one or two memetic personality traits.

The "手に入れろ! オカルトボール!" on the OP image makes more sense now. I guess in the new fighting game "occult balls" are randomly released during a match and both players try to grab it for a powerup or something. Sounds like Super Smash Touhou to me.
Moe Harukawa's art is really cute though, I wish she'd do the illustrations for an actual danmaku game.

For all the shit, there's always ballza portrayals
