Whee. In case you guys haven't heard yet. Touhou 12.8 is announced.
妖精大戦争 ~ 東方三月精 (Fairy Wars)
Playing as Cirno and freezing danmaku! Also 3 Fairies get danmaku too!
AND THE PEASANTS REJOICED!
I hope it's not painfully hard. ZUN needs to start making easier games... *Still has the bruises from SA and MoF*
And in case that wasn't enough new Touhou for you, then you'll be glad to hear about the new manga as well.
東方茨歌仙 ~ Wild and Horned Hermit
The main character is Kasen Ibara, "A mysterious girl who describes herself as 'a simple pilgrim' and shows up at the Hakurei Shrine looking for the so-called 'arm of the kappa'."
Comiket's not too far off either. These are the good days of being a Touhou fan.
Eh, manga is nice. I'd prefer another 4Koma, maybe following the Scarlet Devil Mansion... ^^
From being a 2nd stage boss to a star in her own game, Cirno has gone a looooongg way. Of course, with the three mischievous fairies (SunnyMilk, StarSapphire and LunaChild).
So who do you think needs to star in her own game?
For me, Reisen II and the Watatsuki sisters.
It's the rabid fans. People on Walfas are wondering whether or not ZUN is just caving in to demands.
Also, the most wanted stars are:
1. PATCHOULI.
2. Sakuya
3. Hoan- Err, Hong Meiri- Meili- Mei Li- CHINA.
4. Reisen Reisen Reisen.
5. Eirin
6. ALICE!
In short, a game with all of those should be made.
NOW.
I'm gonna go kidnap ZUN.
I've never had the pleasure of playing a touhou game... and I'm very sad because of it.
But if I were to try it... which one is the best. lol
Let me break it down for you.
TH 1-5: PC-98. Don't do it. Yet.
TH 6: Embodiment of Scarlet Devil. It's challenging, but it was my first. As the first WIndows game, it lacks a lot of the features.
TH 7: Perfect Cherry Blossom. Ehh... Never found anything special. But it has Alice.
TH 8: Imperishable Night. YES YES YES. It's not too difficult for nublets (Like meself!), has an awesome cast, plot, and soundtrack, and... Yeah. Play this.
TH 9: Um. No. Not for the newcomers.
TH 10-12: NO. NO. NO. I HATES THEM. THEY MAKE ME CRY AND FEEL LIKE A LOSER.
So... Imperishable Night or EoSD. :D
