Now that all predictions seem to have been thrown out of the window and the religious heads seem to be Byakuren, Miko and Reimu I guess everything is possible. I'm expecting one more character from the Mountain (i predict Momizi or Hatate) followed by two from the underground (expecting Rin and Koishi, as Okuu already was playable and Satori seems not the kind to show interest in this). If they are gonna release one character until Saturday, that's still two characters short though...

If there's Nitori, I want Suwako and Kanako, or just Sanae.

Hi, I just logged in to type that I fell in love with Miko's new appearance.  :*

That is all.

Just kidding. This game is getting me really excited.

I BARELY see Kanako's head there... and her not being in would surprise me.
It is Kanako. She has her distinguish hairband.

BTW, to you people who say some kappas hate religion, where has that been stated? I haven't found anything what has said that myself.
A quick translation of her profile states it.

I'm suprised how one screen can wipe away almost the whole MoF crew. Only Momiji and Hina are left.

I honestly didn't expected her to appear here, but if you consider that she was stated to appear in Hisoutensoku....

Fingers crossed for logic-defying Mokou and Kaguya...
I made a PADHerder. It's probably out of date though.

With Nitori being announced, and the possibility of Sanae, Kanako, and Suwako not being playable at all, pretty much means all bets are off from this point onwards.

Nitori's Solid Snake (Brawl) move certainly pleased me. Will wait to see why she is getting involved before I air any other comment. (Translation please~ XD )

On the translation note, I've been providing the UK group (on FB) links to our translations on here when new characters have been announced. Hope you don't mind; just doing my best to keep each community happy and informed. ^^

I say again, have they confirmed that being in the background means you won't be playable? Not Having Kanako in is a big surprise to me.... but maybe Kanako will call upon Okuu to fight for her ;)

Speaking of which, where's my translations of her profile and the blog post? Just saying.

As much I would like to see Momiji in the game, I really doubt that will be th case. I think Hatate might have better chance of appearing.

Unless, Kanako somehow managed to convince Nitori to fight for her, but I highly doubt it.

Playable Momiji would be AWESOME!

I really hope this happens now, and Hina would be awesome too.  :derp:

I was in the "background characters won't be playable" camp beforehand, but with Kanako and Sanae in the background, I'm starting to believe that that isn't true. Getting my hopes for Shou and Seiga back up again.

At the same time, Nitori's appearance could point to other random playable characters. Like, say, Orin? :D

Well jeez, that just threw out every single idea I had...
Nitori looks really fun to play, I guess we'll be seeing some SA characters then considering their absense so far.
I'd like to think it won't be Okuu just cause she appeared in hiso already, and I could really see rin working as a character.
Come to think of it Alice has been notably absent too considering how often she appears in the series.

Orin would be cool, throwing people into her cart. Some other random characters I would like are Yuuka, Mamizou, Kasen, Tenshi(a friend of mine REALLY wants her in) and Mami(what a twist :p ) But I am expecting someone new to the series as well.

We haven't seen Alice yet have we? Some of my friends are expecting Alice in the game.

If Orin would appear, I think her ability would allow her to summon zombie fairies. Question of how they would behave is up to you (I personally think they should work like Dizzy's ice fishes or Mu's Stein Gunners)

It is honestly a pleasure reading this thread today.

The shitstorms that have emerged at this announcement in other places (be it about gameplay, thrown-off predictions, the artwork) is getting a bit too much for my tastes...

I for myself am very content with the update, though it does provoke questions about BG character's playability. If Moriya does show up after all, anything else could be possible as well. I just don't know what is going to happen next.

What if Nitori`s True Religion is Pantheist?

So she can stop the great religion wars and tell everyone that Religions were corrupt while Pantheism is the only True Religion?

P.S.

Albert Einstein`s Religion is Pantheist.

Okay... Here is my suggestion for the missing characters:
Meiling, Kasen, Mamizou and Alice.

Of course they might introduce some new character that is neither the final boss nor the (optional) midboss...

Nitori, woah that's quite a surprise, didn't expect her at all, I think I found my main.

I wanted Kanako really badly, but I'll take it.

I honestly don't know of other touhou forums other then this one, haha. People really are getting pissed about this? From what I have seen, this game will be awesome, and the most unique fighter I have seen. I really do hope it grows and people play it here.

I think we need to look for tommorows update. that will show us for sure if we will get a Moriya or not. they have seeming posting the characters as groups together, so if we are getting Kanako, Sanae, or Suwaka, we will know by tommorow, since I am sure Nitori is fighting along side Kanako. Remember, Kanako supports science and tech, which nitori loves, so why wouldn't she side with her?

She could be playable; at this point, anything is possible. :D

We're still missing the Forest of Magic stage, after all... Which, could be either Alice's or Mamizou's stage (according to SoPM, Mami apparently hangs around there).

Some people don't really like the idea of seeing Nitori instead of one of the Moriya's in this update. And having without exception all of the Moriya's in one screenshot in the back of a stage must be a hard punch in their face.

I am just anxious to see what comes next. With Nitori's reveal, I am starting to think everything could happen now.

Maybe the guy means othr places, not just forums. For example, Dustloop has thread for HM, but I am pretty much only person there who keeps the thread updated. So places like 4chan might be where the shitstorms ar coming from.

Wow. Nitori. In a game about showing off in front of people. The shy kappa wants some friends? Also, funny that an anti-religious character will still use the "balance between three religions" mechanic.

Thinking a bit, it makes some sense that Moriya cast doesn't take part in the whole thing if we suppose that they may have found their followers in mountain youkai communities. Or they could have nudged them into taking part just to mess with everyone :V In that case, expecting someone from SA messing things up further.

Abridged version of 'From Tasofro's blog'
Nitori is less affected by the 'Characters are gradually pulled to the center' mechanic, so it is easier to maintain height difference.
To make use of this property, her weak shots move in a parabola, and her strong shots shoot up and down, and she can't shoot directly in front of her.

She has a 999 battery count for her skills and shots.
While it lasts, spirit consumption is low. But when it runs out, attacks might weaken, become unusable, and/or use more spirit.

Tasofro also mentions that Nitori has lots of skills with ZUN's naming sense. (The skill in the screenshot is called 'Photon Torpedo')

Of course, This isn't the whole post.


I think ZUNnaming is awesome.

I'm still quite sure that Nitori has her battery refilled for the next round.

I also except someone like Rin or Koishi.

This has to be a Moriya Shrine conspiracy ! So it makes for Kanako to just watch the fights.

Orin's special mechanic is that you have to win fifteen rounds to beat her. :V

If Orin would appear, I think her ability would allow her to summon zombie fairies. Question of how they would behave is up to you (I personally think they should work like Dizzy's ice fishes or Mu's Stein Gunners)

Or Arakune's bugs maybe?

Edit: Oh yeah, and I'd say Utsuho's odds just went waaaay up.

Or down as aside from Reimu and Marisa, other characters have never been playable
before (okay, Nitori was Marisas support in SA, but she hasn't been playable alone).
