I'm currently watching ZUN's radio show due to an earlier announcement setting Twitter abuzz: He is getting married. For real.

From what I can tell, it's to a normal girl (not to beer) and the wedding and/or the reception is planned for the day of Reitaisai. I guess he's going to try to combine the two in some way.

No telling how this is going to affect his games for the time being, and he hasn't said anything about it yet, so only time will tell.

Congratulations, ZUN!

Edit: Wait, RTS this year? Damn he moves fast.

Holy shit, I will be attending Reitaisai. What is going on?

I'm guessing that he's been seeing the girl for a while, and managed to keep it under wraps until now. Good for him! :3

I have feeling my rumor mill that I heard is spreading. I don't think I have concret facts yet on if the said woman worked with ZUN or not. But some people are saying it's she has been around helping him since the days of IN not PCB.

But anyways want to give my congratulations to the man for finally finding the woman in his life (and somehow managing to keep this a secret to everyone till now).

P.S. What I would like is a transcript of the radio conversation he had.

Gpop · « **Reply #8 on:** February 29, 2012, 02:35:06 PM »

Man, congrats to him. Both are really lucky to have each other for many different reasons.

I wonder how he'll be able to balance the marriage and making the games together? But I sure hope he focuses on the marriage :V

It's about time he settled down

at the rate he's chugging, the next few years without doing so can't be good for him.

Reddyne · « **Reply #11 on:** February 29, 2012, 03:10:31 PM »

Really? I had no idea! Well, he's either getting hitched to a very patient lady who fully accepts and understands how much passion and effort goes into making Touhou-related works or an Aya dakimakura.

For real-real? What kind of sorcery is this

That's a bit unexpected, at least for me. This is the first time I heard that ZUN has a girlfriend.

I just hope that it won't affect anything. I'm looking forward to hear about the next Reitaisai, unfortunately I don't even the money to go there. Maybe in 2-3 years.

Seems to be the type that knows how to balance life and work at the same time. Especially when rumours go around he has been "dating" this person for a longer time.

On the topic of Reitaisai and such: If there is going to be some sort of event, it is going to be frikken crowded for sure. And this is only my first time going to such an event. I don't even know any more if I should start worrying or start getting excited. How is Reitaisai normally anyway in comparison to Comiket? More peaceful/organized or just as holyhellpeopleeverywhere.

Power · « **Reply #16 on:** February 29, 2012, 04:06:41 PM »

Yes this sounds awesome. :] I believe ZUN has plenty to enjoy himself and that is why he has been dating her for some time. Well this sounds like awesome news. This wedding so needs to be recorded so I can watch it at niconico or youtube.

SuperParadox · « **Reply #17 on:** February 29, 2012, 04:15:33 PM »

SAY WHATTTTTTTTTT?
This is pretty damn exciting. Luckly that excitment came out my stomach with a burp instead of the usual other end

Congrats Zun! I hope they stay happy toghether for the rest of thier lives. :3
I think im going to cry.

Wow! Wasn't expecting this all of a sudden!

Congratulations, ZUN!

Oh wow, I would have never guessed. Congratulations, ZUN. =D I hope his marriage is a happy one.

Though I do wonder how this will affect Touhou? A wife (and perhaps children) could change ZUN's perspectives, turning the series in interesting new directions...~

ZUN, you sneaky devil! Congratulations to him and his future wife.

Gratz to our God I guess...

Does this mean that his going to slow his process of releasing any future works?

Hope it doesn't...

Excelsus · « **Reply #23 on:** February 29, 2012, 05:52:50 PM »

He is married to a programmer, and has been with him since touhou IN, i guess she gives an extra help on the programming of the games, along the way, that means team shanghai alice no longer single man again.

I'm expecting to see some awesome hats at the ceremony.

Tengukami · « **Reply #25 on:** February 29, 2012, 05:59:49 PM »

If they've been together since IN, I doubt his output will slow down now.

In any case, congratulations to the Otas!

I often make jokes and come up with ideas on my own, only to find they've been made/come up with elsewhere already.

Also, glad people are more happy for the guy than worried about their vidya gaemz.

Silly Flora, we know it's an Oni in disguise. Or a human female equivilent of Yuugi/Suika.

The alcohol bill for the household would be gigantic.

But seriously, congratulations ZUN. Not like you'll notice me saying it but w/e.
