Raenir Salazar posted:If our goal is to get more people roped into the asylum that is the Touhou fandom then a wide release anime regardless of its origins can only ultimately be beneficial even if there's some hiccups and growing pains along the way. When was this ever anyone's goal? The main problem with a Touhou anime is that it really doesn't map to animation all that well. Danmaku kind of looks silly outside of the games, and the actual rules are still kind of fuzzy (are you supposed to just get hit once? or until you can't sustain the spell anymore? The former applies to the player character, the latter to bosses). The Memories of Phantasm anime skipped a ton of the fights for that reason, and the one they did show was really quick. Also, the last thing we all need is an argument over which stereotypical anime voice fits each Touhou. BlitzBlast fucked around with this message at May 27, 2012 around 21:37 |

Samurai Sanders posted:Like I said though, I'm worried that if an anime comes along they WON'T ignore that, it will become the new standard, complete with voice acting and mannerisms and everything and it will make touhou fan stuff more uniform and boring. If the MMDs, doujinshi, other PV anime, IOSYS's poo poo and whatnot didn't force a watered down version of Touhou, Memories of Phantasm won't. Hell, people don't even pay attention to ZUM's "canon" 90 percent of the time. Your fears are selfish and irrational; a proper Touhou anime would end up in the same umbrella as everything else. And (the good) superhero movies cut out decades of sperg and weird, myopic supplemental material; getting to a purer essence of the character. A good trade run does the same thing; comics have ghettoized themselves to stupid nerd bullshit for not making a standard outside of placating weirdos. poo poo, you said yourself that your wishes were selfish. Selfish fans kill fandoms; look at Fallout or god forbid, Pony fans. And I thought people liked ZUN's stuff because it was interesting and quirky, not because he's really traditional about things.

Samurai Sanders posted:I think that the things about Zun that make his stuff interesting and quirky are the same things that make him reject anime. Also I don't get the fallout or mlp things at all, for the first I didn't even know it had a creative fan community, for the second it is a toy line owned by Hasbro, what could possibly be more commercial than that? This isn't a question of being commercial, it's a question of entitlement; Fallout fans and Bronies think they own the particular property and are the only people that should be catered to. In not wanting an anime fanwork because you (selfishly) believe that it will "water down" the fan community, you are using similar lines of reasoning as people who think any Fallout past 2 is garbage because it's not turn-based isometric or Brony fucks who think that the show shouldn't be marketed to girls, but to smelly college age nerds. I don't think you mean to do this, since you don't know what those fandoms entail, but that's how you're coming off. Well, that, and you're using the hipster/idiot punk "I don't want my ~*underground*~ thing to sell out" rhetoric. ZUN is way too anime himself to reject anime; he seems to not want a TV anime for the same reason he doesn't want to sell to America: because  .

Not seeing where you're going with above. Touhou isn't sold anywhere else in the world. I may be wrong, but I believe Zun's no-anime rule was purely targeting groups like Maikaze for not labeling their work as fan work.

Yeah, this is what I heard too- basically, a bunch of anime making dudes were implying that their Touhou was the definite Touhou, and Zun put his foot down. Also, while that Wacky Races pic is nice, I still prefer the one I posted, since I can make a 'Yukkrey' joke

If you're going to post them to Danbooru, you're probably best off editing all of the images from a post into one really tall image, I think. But even then it won't be as good as on Pixiv, since you'll see the next image too soon.

Perhaps if the mouth was a touch less wide, the teeth a little bit smaller. That touch of exaggeration is enough to push it into uncanny. Are there not many artists with a more Western style who draw Touhou characters? Are there any "American Superhero Comics" style drawings of them? I would love to see that.

Well, there's three things to worry about in this case: -Danbooru has a certain quality standard where they refuse and delete submissions that don't really meet them. Stuff that is too sketchy, scribbled, etc... -You can't upload pictures from your own computer, but directly from other places. -When uploading from Pixiv, you have to use one very specific url for the image, and not the one for, say, the manga viewer or a zoomed in image. quote:ugh danbooru... What is the method/policy for uploading Pixiv manga sample images, when they've been combined for readability, and then pooled? Ok, that's definitely better then what I had planned. Perhaps just link all the images to the whole thing as the same source?

 Oh, Strawberry Bose, you big jokers, first using creepers and now this. You sure do enjoy your references eh? Then again, it seems like everyone out there loved that Madoka thing... Speaking of this though. Reitaisai started on the morning of the 28th I think? How in blazes do people manage to get the newest games and finish them on the release date like that? And I do hope no download links of anything from that event appear for a while, it'd be a shame...

Hey Samurai Sanders, could you please translate some of the new Skills/Abilities in FMW2? Here's a bunch of stuff I can't figure out at all through comparison with FMW1. The stuff highlighted in red are the names of the skills. This one has something to do with Power (aka Will) but that's all I can figure out.  Something to do with damage?  I know what this one does (Critical +20%, Hit rate -10%), but I'm curious about the name.  This one is basically a No Skill option, but the PP in the description has me curious to if there's any other effect.    No clue for these. There's more, but that's all that I'm curious about right now. BlitzBlast fucked around with this message at May 28, 2012 around 20:54 |

気分高場, at the beginning of ever allied turn, power +3 距離補正無視, damage and aim do not decrease, starts at range >6 勘, intuition. To re-learn the skill costs no PP. 支援攻撃, support attacks are guaranteed critical (same as in SRW) 嘘避け, a certain chance of 100% dodge, determined by LOW technique level (技量) and skill level (of this skill I assume) 起死回生, if hp, mp and sp all go below 10%, they are all refilled just once Samurai Sanders fucked around with this message at May 28, 2012 around 21:06 |

I believe the posting was quickly buried under other discussion - I shall attempt to get a more complete Alpha out soon as well, though. It is unusual that the game would not work on your machine - I have tested it on several others PCs including friends' without issue (not to mention that, being XNA/NET, it should be natively compatible). Do you have any other PCs you could try running it on? Ed: Additionally, do you happen to have MSN or Gmail? It would be easier to coordinate a possible solution given more rapid communication.

quote:To re-learn the skill costs no PP. Ah, I think I heard about this when the demo came out. Apparently, the wife(urgh) system was removed, but if you had already learned abilities with it, you get to buy them again for free. ...If anyone ever does LP this, they sure will have fun times trying to explain the wife system though. EDIT: Looks like I was completely wrong here. Apparently: "Wife bonuses go up to level 5, with each level granting a +5 in maximum Power and a +1 upgrade in all stats (including weapons)" Apparently you get refunded PP from any skills that didn't carry over between games or got changed too much, because they do different things now despite having the same names as before... That'll teach me to talk about a game before I try it. Now I have to go and find whoever on youtube told me all that wrong info... HGH fucked around with this message at May 29, 2012 around 12:27 |

Have a picture of Sakuya! As of late, I've been trying to push my art style in a more Western direction, because I think it's amusing to see Touhou characters looking a little less anime.  Folks, remember the 12-15 page fan comic I said I'd do at the beginning of the month? Well, it turns out that this month was super busy with being the last month of my first term of grad school, so I didn't get to work on it. But I'll start today, and post the pages one by one as I finish them. Or would it be bothersome? I could just bundle it up in one zip and post that whole thing when I am finished.
