A cute girl edition Previous thread: >So what is this game? Touhou is a bullet hell game made by ZUN. Instead of ship or robots it features anime girls fighting youkai and such.
>Why isn't this in /jp/ Some Cirno poster made a thread just for a get and now we're here.
>Where should I start? The games until 5 were designed for the PC-98 platform, which would require an emulator. It's recommended you start either with the sixth (first Windows game) or the second game (as the first one isn't a bullet hell) and work your way up from there. Some games aren't your usual bullet hells but should be played anyway 1: Arkanoid's drunk abusive cousin 7.5, 10.5, 12.3, 13.5, 14.5: Fighting games The others follow the basics of the bullet hell genre but usually add a game play twist. Once you're done with the main series you can move on to the fangames, of which some are of excellent quality.

ONE JOB KAGUYA ONE FUCkING JOB
Tyler Brown
How does Kaguya survive in Gensokyo without a hat?
Eli Gonzalez
Rood, oh well at least someone covered the new thread instead.
Once more we goofed up. It's fine though at least we have a new thread.
Oliver Powell
...
Angel Ortiz
It's "whether," user, you baka.
decent thread theme anyways though
Noah Ward
Immortality, duh.
Gabriel Gray
A very cute NEET girl
Caleb Turner
Is that PC98 Yuuka on the right?
Jonathan Howard
Why is UFO so shit? it ruined the entire series
Chase Perez
no pc-98 yuuka had pants and long hair
Christian Wright
Not at all. That's windows era Yuuka, PC-98 Yuuka had long hair and pants. Or pajamas, depending on the stage.
Angel Wood
>PC 98 Yuuka Why would you come here saying this dumb things?
Henry Powell
but that face though
because I've only seen the portrait of 98 Yuuka.
Logan Cooper
That’s the normal yuuka. PC-98 has leggings and much longer hair
Aaron Perez
A big fairy.
Jason Flores
Because he's a newfriend reading through the print works before he plays through the games or anything.
This is windows Yuuka new friend.
Thomas Morris
Wait no. It might have been Phantasmagoria Yuuka. Nevermind I'm really fucking wrong. Ignore
Connor Harris
who had the best windows portrait?
Jace Parker
PC-98 hasn't been relevant since EoSD man, it's a shame but even Alice and Yuuka are very vague references of their former games. ZUN keeps PC-98's canonicity in limbo so he can pull characters out of the aether if he decides to. It's both canon and non-canon until stated to be false and even then it's just as permeable
Nicholas Wright
Okuu
Ryder Sanders
4u
James Reed
Kaguya or Medicine.
Nathaniel Gutierrez
>Because he's a newfriend reading through the print works before he plays through the games or anything. Why would he do that? Why go blind on them? Like he isn't even going to understand shit.
David Howard
Raisin's is pretty decent, honestly.
Jack Jenkins
Bedroom eyes Eiki and Komachi should be made illegal.
Lincoln Green
Because it gets me excited to play the games. Also There's not a whole lot to understand, and it's not like I can't just pick up on shit over time like I've been doing.
Andrew Hernandez
He apparently read through wikis and probably gave a game a whirl, but I don't think he's really gotten into games. We had to explain to him how Gensokyo works just two threads ago. It kinda makes sense if you get interested because people are posting some lore bits, and you want to learn more about the lore behind the world and stuff.
Joshua Allen
I love the art upgrade midthrough EoSD and the downgrade at PCB (the portraits of the sisters are from PoFV though) until Yuyuko/Ran. >who had the best windows portrait? Nitori is pretty well drawn.
Michael Thompson
But I'm playing Seasons right now. That's just how I do things.
Ryder Morris
Nitori does have a nice design to her. She’s one of my favorites for sure
Dominic Campbell
>the chain of portraits including Sakuya's original one is an "upgrade"
Justin White
I also finished 2huvania last night.
Thomas Harris
>Lunarians stated to have better tech than gensokyo >they just have good magic and bolt action single shot/3 round magazine/tube fed magazine rifles with a stock you can't even shoulder and 24 inch barrels on par with the rest of the world 20 years before the turn of the century. >Kappa have optical camo suits, laser guns and literal missiles But them Lunarians have bayonets at least! IT bugs me way more than it should
Chase Price
I always got this vibe that Rumia's Portrait was in a sort of limbo between the end of PC-98's Style and the beginning of the Windows Style rather than just plain starting the Windows Style, it stands out more than others to me for some reason.
Ethan Cook
>not thinking EoSD Sakuya is an upgrade
Nathan Nguyen
I agree, I don't even particularly care for Rumia, but I think she's got one of the best portraits, next to Reimu, in her game. It stands out quite a bit.
Aiden Baker
Compare to PCB Mopkuya.
Isaiah Smith
Even if the shape is all wonky, it's still completely more detailed than early EoSD. That's honestly what I feel of the entirety of EoSD, like the plot, the early portraits, the music and the game itself feels too alien to the rest of Windows era touhou and it does make it a unique game. Let it go user, and they do have better technology like the magic rope to tie hands and the magic fan to nuke the forest.
Angel Ward
EoSD has some of the weirdest portraits you can find, yet they still have a good charm to them. The sakuya face still sticks out yet people still love it. The worst one that game had was meiling
Jeremiah Brooks
Why can't Zun decide on consistent eye colors?
Nathan Rivera
>Technology >magic I know it's my own autism getting to me, but fuck if I don't consider that a glaring oversight.
Luke Clark
In terms of general themes throughout literature and other sources, magic is no more than a technological analogue. Perhaps ZUN inspires us all to consider the implications of using the two utterly interchangeably by conflating them so blatantly.
or maybe ZUN's a hack
Benjamin Stewart
In the case of sakuya and youmu, their eye's turn red when they are emotionally.... angry.
For everyone else, your guess is as good as mine.
Joseph Lopez
It's so bad when you consider that MoF and SSiB were released within a month of each other.
Ayden Hernandez
Well the majority of the characters aren't exactly cut from the same fabric as the rest of 2hu is it? Aren't the majority of 2hu games japanese shinto related and what not, but EoSD is more like a western and mythical creature kind of thing?
Gavin Jackson
It is. That was ZUN's big surprise and theme of the game. Opening up with a big surprise. In a game called "Eastern" the first game is all about western monsters and places.
Ryan Cox
I had forgotten how fucking weird-looking Remilia is.
Josiah Russell
If this is true then why doesn't Reimu always win these to get followers? Or is Manga Reimu pretty shitty?
I mean I guess looking at the popularity of EoSD and the popularity of some of LolK's characters, I think I know what makes people prefer them over others.
Alexander Allen
>forgot image f u g
Charles Ross
Well, EoSD has a good amount of seniority going for it. It's the oldest windows game around after all, and the SDM cast was in pretty much every game between 6 and 10, and they're in most any print work I can think of in one way or another. LoLK has the benefit of just being well written, we know more about Junko than we do 90% of the other stage 6 bosses, besides maybe Remilia and Kaguya.
Nolan Sanchez
cute bat dude!
Cameron Allen
Junko is kinda cheating because alongside Kaguya, her backstory was just stolen from a tale.
Luis Morales
Remilia is intimidating and scary, not cute. Do not demean the Mistress like that.
Joseph Cooper
Remi doesn't look weird. Remi looks super cute. Even her EoSD portrait is super cute.
Caleb Sanchez
Remilia is both scary and cute. It depends on the situation.
Jaxon Nelson
Remi likes to eat food, but not sour food
Oliver Perez
Sour candy is the best though, does she like salty food at least?
Nolan Jones
>Remi likes to eat food
I don't believe it. Source or this is just headcanon.
Gabriel Robinson
Remi doesn't like to eat food -Zun
Levi Sullivan
You know what she does like to eat though? Penis.
Kayden Evans
I believe it.
Please don't spread false rumours about my wife.
Nathan Bailey
Your wife literally sucks though dude. Blood that is.
Christopher Ramirez
He's only spreading truthful rumors though.
Jaxson Parker
I'll eat her penis.
Kevin Perez
Can you really say you love your 2hu if you wouldn't?
Asher Moore
I'd be very surprised if my 2hu had a penis. But I guess that could happen if you work with shady drugs all the time.
Benjamin Flores
>that one doujin where reimu had a futa cock and raped the EoSD cast and fairies
Benjamin Gonzalez
Gimme that sauce, buddy
Isaac Ramirez
but futa sucks. is there a good doujin where the EoSD cast gets loved tenderly by a man who fucks them all?
Hudson Nguyen
There's several of those for the SDM, but EoSD as a whole, not really.
Kevin Rogers
Would you suck your 2hu's penis?
Lucas Ward
I'm down with just the SDM or any group of characters really.
Nolan Powell
Well it's still my 2hu, so she's gonna look like a cute girl either way. So I don't see why I wouldn't, if a bit hesitantly because futa sux. I'd totally give her a reach around while fugging her though.
>gahaha not that user, but is that that one image with the long tongue and fucked-up face?
Kayden Myers
Is it okay to like Aya?
Benjamin Collins
It’s fine, but her paper is filled with yellow journalism
Adam Murphy
So has Zun said anything yet about the impact of the Steam launch?
Austin Walker
Damn Eiki is tiny, no wonder people don't listen to her.
Jason Ross
Are Aya and Okuu friends
Josiah Allen
They should team up and make a show. Call it bird up
Jayden Evans
How would the outside world view Reimu based on social standards? Would she be seen as a delinquent?
Jackson Sanchez
You respect the itty bitty eiki!
Robert Bailey
she would probably be a fun drinking buddy, but she'd probably be the loudmouth dyke that gets thrown out of the bar every night and her friend would have to take her home
Jeremiah Turner
Sanae is a good girl, she seems like the class rep type.
Jordan Johnson
Marisa seems like the girl who would take her home, if not also get thrown out with her
She seems like the bullyable type desu
Nolan White
Marisa's a jackass, huh.
Luis Foster
She and Reimu drank some sort of Sake the night before that's making them act like Oni.
Caleb Clark
Wow, it was an Oni who gave them such a thing, right? Nobody but a real Oni would be in possession of such an object surely.
Kayden Morris
It only makes you act like an oni if you are already in good health, and otherwise has some restorative properties.
The issue with that being the person that usually drinks from it is permanently not in good health.
Adrian Cooper
I can think of no other cause for this debacle. Someone should find that Oni and shave her horns off with a belt sander.
