Glad to see that Mamizou is still an rear end in a top hat. And the panel with Suika pouring sake into her eye is my new favorite

An uncountable number, to be sure.

Also i'm glad i'm getting what I wanted out of this manga. More Suika.

Also, I've been translating Touhou fancomics on the 'boorus if you're interested. Mostly Fuantei, but also Gensoukumuten stuff.

Of those official ones, I'm fond of Forbidden Scrollery, Lotus Eater, and Wild and Horned Hermit.

It should be noted that Forbidden Scrollery has an official English translation.

Definitely Forbidden Scrollery, probably my favorite of the mangas and the most consistent? Wild & Horned Hermit was completely fine but I feel it didn't really get good until it started ending.



I have a fondness for the Reisen & Tewi 4Koma but I feel 4Komas are so ymmv

I can also recommend The Shinigami's Rowing Her Boat as Usual if Strange Creations of the Outer World stuff is also fine.

The closest acceptable translation is
"die properly"
Touhou Lost Word, the other big smartphone/gacha game just came out a few days ago. The overall tone is a bit more serious than Cannonball (right at the start, Reimu, Marisa, and Sanae get transported to a parallel Gensokyo that for some reason has a high school with matching uniforms, but is flooded by the moon's seawater and has no immediately apparent source of fresh water) but it has way more of the smartphone game trappings like complex leveling systems, auto/idle play features, and multiple kinds of currency. It's a more than a little concerning to see Reimu and Marisa get hype over ever larger in-game purchases.

Aesthetically, I prefer Cannonball more since the Live2D and 3D animation is more expressive than simple facial expression changes and puppet-like battle movements, but Lost Word does let you pick from three different voice banks for each character you obtain which is pretty impressive.

What, like Disgaea? Can I pick between a Sweet, Tsundere, and Ruthless Reimu?

It's from the concert they had during golden week last year, featuring music from Games 4 - 9. There's other clips on their youtube channel

The actual lines are the same, only the voices are different, so while that technically could be possible, it's not that dramatic a change.

And yeah, the JAGMO performances are really amazing, especially in person. They had another one scheduled for during Comiket but that got cancelled so they're uploading past recordings to kinda fill that gap.

I've 1cced all the Touhous except WBaWC on Normal (Pointdevice for LoLK ofc) and I finally got around to giving WBaWC a few tries yesterday. The visibility is really bad in that game I kind of don't want to try finishing it.

The last two stages are really fun though. It's a shame because I feel like I'd like the game a lot more if it weren't for the gimmick, which I hated in UFO and I hate just as much now that we have a rehash of it.

I feel like this is a lie because Reimu would have gotten up twelve seconds in and kicked everyone's asses so she could get some sleep.

That's how most Touhou games start.
