-
What is this feeling!
This feeling of... amazement!
-
I don't actually like that remix :x
Also, I find it humorous how all the people in the comments are acting as if this is going to kill the fanbase when CNN didn't even mention Touhou by name and the segment was incredibly short as well. gj, youtube commments.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

O_O
But wait... STOPMOTION? IT'S 3D-ANIMATION, YOU- I should listen better.

Actually it does sound like they're implying that the stop motion version is actaully the original :V
-
"On the lighter side of the news, the serial frog freezer was executed today by lethal melting."
-
That is just so amazing!
Seems not even CCN is safe from Touhou ;D
-
My reaction is somewhere between childish giggling because this happened and a *facepalm* because of the factual inaccuracies. :V
You know, this totally deserves a place on TVTropes' "Cowboy BeBop on His Computer" page, but I am too tired to add it.
-
This is pretty awesome 8)
-
Welp, show's over folks, now we've gotta find a new hobby. See you all around on neopets.
-
I expect some delicious drama.
-
No mention of Touhou displeases me.
This :(
-
why does everyone care about mentioning touhou so much
it's a popular video, they can't read japanese
they're also cnn
derp
-
I'm filled with shock and amazement Touhou made it's way on international news (albeit only a song, and no reference to the real deal), but I'm also agitated about the fact they try and act the stop-motion version is the real one. I'm not sure though, but I thought they did say the stop-motion was fanmade, but it passed by so quickly I'm not sure. Atleast they picked the best animation of the song.
-

I think we're better off for it.

I want to know why this guy got numerous thumbs down:
"It's not an anime, well kinda. It's a series of independently developed games called Touhou. Most are Top-down shooters, but here's a few fighting games as well. There has been a doujin/anime that was made, it was pretty short though."
Apparently thinking Touhou is an anime is good now >=P
-
You people care too much about what other people think. Either way:
I think we're better off for it.

Because it seems like the video itself destroyed the reasoning of many of it's viewers and in thier frenzy they made many illogical choices. :V
-
"No, that's bizarre. No, I'm just still trying to figure that one out. I'd probably have to watch that over and over again to get it. To get the attraction."
It's pretty funny how it had them so confused.
I think we're better off for it.
Well depending on how you look at this it's a good thing. Since some people might actually try to find out what it's from and become interested in Touhou as a result.
-

I think we're better off overall too. But I really do feel sorry for people getting tagged as bad or whatever for posting the truth on the video =

"On the lighter side of the news, the serial frog freezer was executed today by lethal melting."
"And now, the weather. Iku?"
"...Geez, leaving the highest daughter on her own could be dangerous. Anyway, tonight we're looking at gale-force winds, flash floods, freak lightning storms and quakes-"
*double take*
"FFFFFFFFFF-"

Well, at least everyone will have super armor.

Well, at least everyone will have super armor.
It doesn't mean they still won't take damage
-
I sent CNN an e-mail about the segment, correcting them and explaining a few things in further detail. We'll see what happens.
-
In the mean while, ZUN seen this, probably went beerspit.jpg and is calling Yukari and Reimu to take care of it.
My condolence in advance to those CNN presentators
-
That lady called Marisa creepy...

"And on tonight's segment: Toehoe - The Japanese Craze that drives good-hearted Americans to fall in love with little girls. Brought to you by request."
-
just saw this...
They're gonna bring in newfags.
newfags ariving in 5... 4... 3...

That lady called Marisa creepy...
This is an accurate statement, though. ???
-

I seriously doubt anything happens, because I seriously doubt CNN is not used to getting floods of e-mails containing corrections and explanations about most every story they report.
I also seriously doubt anything meaningful comes of this.

Yes, Marisa is so creepy. This Bad Apple video must be about Halloween.

Agree,I honestly don't care as long as Zun keeps making all these awesome games to play
-
Yeah, the Touhou fanbase is going crazy over this.
I doubt anything is going to happen as a result of this, though. In context, it's too irrelevant to make much of a change.
-
So they commented on the video, but not the series or the song itself. They noticed the worst part of that video and went on about it.
This is why I never watch the news.
But, yeah. Perhaps them not mentioning it was for the best.
-
That lady called Marisa creepy...
Well she IS a witch...
-

Yay, set theory.

I'm waiting for somebody to use it as a source and paste sounds from it in time to music. (I don't think it would be very good for pitch shifting, though.)
-
btw... i think the RED ZONE fad is getting more popular than BAD APPLE.
Especially the ones where the characters drive the "cars".
-
At first I thought, "Oh hey, that's cool!"
I really didn't mind the fact that they didn't mention Touhou.
Then they said it was stop motion.
I am a rather upset person atm.
Now that I think about it, I hope they were talking about the video that looked like stop motion.
Or was that one actually stop motion? .__. Maybe it was.

To think, troops mistakenly firing on each other in Afghanistan is only a footnote to this.

This, I wish mainstream media actually reported on important things, but they're there for money first.
Unrelated: God I am going to hate going to school on Monday. People have seen me watch the Bad Apple vid on my ipod. :<

I think the actual Touhou fanbase's reaction can be summed thusly:
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I know I'm late in saying this, but youtube comments are always good for a laugh. The stupidity of some people never ceases to amaze me.

Oh, well then, I stand corrected. :V
-
It was only a matter of time...
We'll see how things go from here.
-
Interesting I couldn't care less if we get new people that much. I mean they would have to look a little further to find out what Touhou is and the like.
-
It was only a matter of time...
Pretty much this.
This probably won't make a difference to the Touhou fanbase, so I'm not too fussed about this
-
Well she IS a witch...
i don't see Marisa doing anything like this though

It seems Touhou is another step closer to world domination.

My avatar perfectly expresses my reactions to the following:
A: The youtube comments on all related videos.
B: The /jp/ thread(s) pertaining to this
C: The general reaction to this
D: The CNN report itself
or, dare I say, E: All of the above
And that's all.

-
This has been ZUN's plan the entire time :V
Once Touhou has gotten enough faith from the world, the portal to Gensokyo will break open, allowing the Touhous to conquer the world. And ZUN will rule as the worlds new God......
Also, ZUN is obviously a transdimensional Tengu God in human disguise. Totally.
-
It's cool that it got noticed on the news, but I think the reporter guy totally knew what the video was about, despite the fact that he called the stop-motion video the "making of" thing, he just danced around the issue since he said it was #1 in Japan for a while, but he didn't say WHERE it was #1. Not entirely sure what he was afraid of, but w/e.
And yeah Youtube, /jp/ reactions are hilarious.
-
I highly doubt a flood of newfags is on the way, since people who watch CNN probably don't care much for flying lolis shooting lasers.
But yeah, I lol'd.
-
My reaction is somewhere between childish giggling because this happened and a *facepalm* because of the factual inaccuracies. :V
Very much this. Although I'm not sure why CNN decided to report on the video in the first place.
-

Someone that works there probably knows what Touhou is. :/

CNN has like a weekly "whats hot on the internet" show/time section where they just burn through everything in like 2 minutes.
Kinda like around the world in 80secs. b/c the entire world's new can be fit into 80 seconds.
Liberals for Touhou.

Ah, I see. I don't normally watch CNN, so thanks for clarifying.

Doubtful, but possible.
-
I think I've lost whatever faith I had left in modern news media.
I don't mind so much that they didn't say it was Touhou, as I'm not concerned with the current or future state of the Touhou fanbase. But the way they handled this "story" was too atrocious to ignore. It saddens me that those in charge of giving information to the public (i.e. the media in general) don't even know enough of what they're talking about (or seemingly even want to learn enough about it) to live up to their supposed mantra of pursuing "accuracy".
-
Some of the reactions here are almost as hilarious as those on Youtube and /jp/. It's just a one-minute piece of filler which nobody who wasn't already a Touhou fan cared about, people.
-
Erm... how do you delete posts?

All reactions to this event are overreactions!

What about Japan's reactions? Do the Elevens give even half a shit?
-
Overreacting is fun.
"Omg touhou on CNN! This is going to ruin everything! Why can't the media leave us nerds alone?
This is only the start this is going to be like pokemon. Soon there will be animu dubs on CN and touhou cards for sale at the family dollar. The fandom will be full of 12 year old girls/boys! NOOOOO!"
:V

Let obscure things be.

It's a goddamn shmup, it won't become mainstream. Ever.
-
It's a goddamn shmup, it won't become mainstream. Ever.
Touhou has evolved past being just the shmup though.
Seriously though, the fan-made content for Touhou is already so large though, that either way you have oodles of Touhou goodies you like, and dislike. Being more popular really wont change a thing, not to mention it most likely wont be more popular anyway.
-
I chuckled at this and then jokingly told the people I know online that "TOUHOU IS TAKING OVER".
Though to be honest I really doubt there will be much of a noticeable increase in fans or what not over this. I had my little chuckle over this and will forget about it in the next couple of hours.

Maybe they refrained from saying it was "Touhou" being afraid people would search it online and find some loli porn. Or short-sighted "gotta fill this one minute segment of nonsense news with something".

People on Nico Nico Douga started to realize CNN's error, and the guy who made the stop-motion video is telling CNN to give him a break.

Hi, came from Nicovideo's thread talking about Bad Apple↓
http://dic.nicovideo.jp/b/v/sm8628149/6991-
It's funny how the reactions of most people on the video on NicoNico is something like:
"It's the otherway around lol"
"Fools lol"
"CNN (laughs)"
Although some people do take it quite seriously. Many take it more like a laughing matter.
P.S. The people on the thread of Nico Nico question CNN as a news channel and many feel for the maker of the videos. ....Guess there's both extremes to this topic.
Do any of them say "wow, americans/the american touhou community are idiots"? Do they even know we exist?
Someone stated that "Proper fans that know Touhou know that the info on CNN is false." So yes, many of them know the oversea fans.
(Not to mention a series of videos that make closeups on "The reactions of the overseas fans.")
-
His name doesn't show up anywhere in the comments. You talking about a different video?
I hope you are being silly.
That's just YT duplicating the comments.
No thats not the case here :V

No I was serious when I said it was bad trolling. It is just unfunny.

Yea I used poor google translate to see what was roughly being said and it was expected.
-
I spent some time on internet today....
Turns out I like strawberry crisis so much more than bad apple.
I haven't actually watched the Bad apple videos yet.
But I am quite surprised to see that it has even hit CNN.
my friend will be all over that...he thinks touhou is secretly the zerg and that's why they assimilate everything. I can imagine his reaction...almost as creeped out as when I told him about Aya Wright...Can't wait...
I stand corrected I did watch the bad apple video before...
see the woman in the CNN broadcast didn't say which part she was creeped out by it jsut so happened to be when marisa flew in.
honestly though I enjoy strawberry crisis more although I doubt people will ever make a video for that one.
Still hopeful
-
8600 views already? :V
and yeah I'm a bad troll

a series of videos that make closeups on "The reactions of the overseas fans."

Dont forget hes in aligence with yukari lol.
I thought the stop motion bit was quite funny, probably accidental as they've gone and spoke without thinking, like most public speakers over there do. If it was on an LCD screen of an organiser or something they'd have probably said it was made by masterful punching in of sets of schedules and dates :V
-
oh crap, it's on ED. :V
-
For all the people getting bent out of shape about the factual inaccuracies, I think the point of the story was more that someone actually made a stop-motion version of it at all than what version of it came first. >_>

Now what? Will the world as we know it end? Will the legion of Touhou fans disappear? Will KyoAni buy Touhou and make it another Endless8? None of these will happen, if anything, people will activate brain.exe and conclude Bad Apple=Touhou and maybe a few of them will get the games and join the fan base. Now excuse me, I am off for some UNL <.<
-
KyoAni is in no real position to buy Touhou - ZUN won't sell it to anyone. Worst case scenario, Square-Enix tries to seize it from him (he works for Taito, who is owned by S-E, and odds are they made him sign a contract that anything he develops under their employ is theirs for the taking), they take him to court over it and the court case gets thrown out as this sort of case has been so many times before.
-
I thought I read on the wiki that ZUN no longer worked at Taito as of a year or two ago?

Because those are the people that can't get past stage 3 on normal.
So the game is too hard and there for it sucks.

Jesus , do they suck at the game THAT much?

So, how long untill someone makes a mashup titled Bad CNN!!?

I doubt they even play them.
They just read the ED article, look at some fan art, toss some lol Japan in there, and tada a touhou troll video.

Lol , ED.
ED is fail. :V
Just look how ignorant and careless some troll reviewers are these days.

yeah it?s the easiest difficulty in the game, cause there is no EASY MODE or anything like that. :V

Cracked >> CNN
At least they do the research.
-
Cracked's article was still "lol littlegirlslittlegirlslittlegirls" though, and flogged that joke badly throughout.
-
Anyway, I have a question.
How many people believing this news?
I hope that most people question the authenticity of the news...

There is hardly anything to question about authenticity here if you would read the whole thread.
-
It's not REAL news, just a "human interest" segment or something like that.
Every Touhou fan knows it's not true, but people who aren't fans aren't going to care too much, although if they do watch the video on Youtube, I'm sure there will be people correcting what that guy said.

I IMPEACH CNN OF THE ARTICLE!
Hm...
In fact,I'm an acquaintance of the author of this PV(frameart ver.).
Certainly,he's depressed that some blame him...
I can't understand producer didn't read the introduction.
Who can blame him?
But It seems everyone here knows the truth. On this point,I'm relieved from upset.
-
This kind of thinking has no place here or anywhere else. Also, please don't make me post my Touhou Anime Episodes again.
YAY! Moar David!

I sent CNN an e-mail, showing them the mistakes. Hopefully, they will listen and correct the report.

I thought I read on the wiki that ZUN no longer worked at Taito as of a year or two ago?
I had believed this myself, but I hear not everyone is sure about this, so I figured I would cover all my bases.
Obviously, if ZUN no longer works for Taito, then there's even more no chance in hell Squeenix gets the rights.
Luckily, neither of them are any good!
What's wrong with Maikaze's?
-
What's wrong with Maikaze's?
While the art is arguably decent and the voice work is top-notch, the story is incredibly boring and goes absolutely nowhere in the amount of time given, and as a result, it's very slow and just not very good. It's a huge step up from Side Story, but there are doujins that are shorter and get more done in a much better fashion. It also doesn't help that Maikaze won't be releasing a second episode for quite a while, and since the story laid out in the first episode is flat-out dependent on something actually happening, it just falls flat.
Because of the amount of time it took, the only thing they could do to make it seem like it wasn't a total waste while everyone waits for episode 2, if it ever comes, was to include an actual danmaku fight, and while it was neat from a special effect POV, it almost seemed out of place and would've made more sense happening when an actual conflict arises. Unfortunately, again, because of the time required to make an episode, they had to shoehorn it in to keep viewers interested.
Really, they should have simply included more fanservice. And no, I don't mean showing off the girls' bodies. Appeal to the fandom with references and situations that they get without really worry about dragging out a plot. I mean, the story is "Reimu's box is gone, what happen?" That shouldn't take long to introduce, five minutes at most, and in the remaining 25 minutes, so much could have been done to progress things, but it's like Maikaze loved the Bee Train camera pan so much, they decided to make it into an anime.
-
Hmm. Now that I think of it, Letty's got a point ...
-
ZUN has the final word in all this. I doubt he will let a big animation house to animate a Touhou anime. He was being kind of defensive over Maikaze attempt at A Summer Day's Dream. Sooner or later, ZUN has to take action over this, not for the fanbase, but for Touhou itself.
I really don't care if something like an exponential increase in the fanbase population happens, but if this fact actually affects ZUN's judgement over creating games... then, we have a problem.
-
Hmm. Now that I think of it, Letty's got a point ...
It's funny what hype can do.
-
Please do. I recall falling off my chair laughing last time.

I look forward to the video that covers this one.
Seems like somebody already made a quick overview on what everyone was saying on Youtube
http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm9568309
As for the problem of fame corrupting ZUN or the games that he makes...
Personally, I think it's highly unlikely for that to happen, since He's seen the fan population explode
and even made public speeches at the uni that he graduated from.
He's just gotten way too popular for certain people in... what? The past 8 years?
Same reason that I don't think any companies or studios will try to buy Touhou off ZUN, since if they do that, they'd get a bad repetition...
and you know what Japanease fans could do when something horrible happens to stuff they like.
Besides, I'd think that he would rather drink beer than care about all that.

ZUN doesn't really give a shit about fame and has expressed before that he wished the Touhou craze would die down just a bit, so it's pretty pointless to worry about hime being "corrupted" by it.

Remiu: Hey... hahah... I heard this funny thing on the news!
Marisa: OH SHUT UP!
Reimu: I don't know Marisa, that was kind of strange... what were you doing to that apple? Eating it, or-

Thanks to CNN, The price of EXSERENS boosted up like fucking mad. I was trying to look for it before; now I can't.

Well, luckily it's also on Lovelight, along with the instrumental.

I might be raging a little too soon. It seems prices are still low on YAJ, but some stores in Japan are jacking up the price of EXSERENS to about 10800yen and then some. :/
Still...

The stop motion version of bad apple is prolly inspired from this vid :

but this kind of technique is not new too, I recall a car vid ad using the same

Meantime, ZUN posted a comment about "his song being aired on TV" on Twitter.

my humble translation
Oh, it's funny. I doubted it "edited" when I heard my song had used on TV.
And he meant THIS. lol ZUN.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGwSmicdPns
He hasn't posted any CNN related, or rather Bad-Apple-related comments, maybe he doesn't bother about it at all?
-
I don't know what ZUN feels, but I'd be proud. Not about the CNN one, the other one.
-
I think ZUN said something more like "I didn't think I arranged my songs for the purpose of being used for TV."
But that is pretty cool, and it perfectly demonstrates how TV can go nuts with what background music they use. As long as they don't have to pay outrageous royalties, anything is fair game.

That was actually pretty random, the music seemed way out of place although I'm guessing that's mostly due to knowing where it comes from.

Some people take it easy and cross it over with another nico meme. (http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm9606141)
-
Also lot of animation/video dedicated website praise the stop mo vid for its high number of "fake(?)" incrustation photos than the original vid itself...although it could annoy the touhou fan, at least it widen a bit more the audience and some maybe will be interested in the real thing...
-
Mode showed me this, its really idiotic that they can't report correctly. D;

I say it's possible, but only if one condition is met: ZUN retains some form of creative control.
