SA Hard Mode is kicking my butt ;-;

So I've been replaying the PSX era RPG SaGa Frontier recently, and had a hilarious thought happen.  You see, there's a character named Mei-ling in it.  Now, she's a Light Magic/Gun user by her default equips and skills, but this is a game you can make anyone anything if you work hard enough.  She wasn't getting the points to use her skills, so upon reading algorithms about how it works and realizing Strength was part of the equation (and her STR stat was only 3) I started having her punch things to gain STR.

Immediately, I get the mental laughs of her working out with Meiling of Touhou and learning how to use martial arts from her (they also have a similar fashion sense, albeit in different colors, in addition to their almost exact name).  I then had to push the crazy crossover idea out of my mind...though I did get the adorable mental image of half-breed Asellus getting advice from Byakuren on how to reconcile her dual race.

I collapsed the other day, and I was lucid enough to remember that the House Set arrange of Kobito of the Shining Needle was playing on loop in my head.
This is not healthy.

When your computer password has a Touhou-related hint so that nobody else you know can figure it out.

When there are mostly Touhou songs on your playlist.
Or Cirno invading your desktop background. And fanfic ideas.

Hieda no Akyuu

  • Ninth Generation Savant
  • The Archiver of Gensokyo
~ When you begin to write as much as Hieda no Akyuu does.
~ When you drink the kinds of tea Hieda likes.
~ When you try to dye your hair purple like Hieda's.
~ When you're descriptive, and literate but a little shy like Hieda.
~ When you are busy, busy, busy with writing or archiving things like Hieda.
~ When you can not stop listening to "Child of Are."
~ When you begin to create your own personality and such for a character, if they aren't given one in the touhou series, so you make one that is best for the character.

:)

Needed some Touhou music in the background while playing an online game without its own music.  Found out I forgot to transfer said music from the backup drive following the reformat I had to pull a few weeks back.  Am now thanking ZUN, Kanako, Suwako, Shinki...and every other god in Gensokyo that I made that Touhou MP3 Player...

@Hieda No Akyuu

By the way, Akyuu is her given name, while Hieda is her family name. This is because in Japanese, (X) no (Y) would mean (Y) of (X) in English. Thus, 'Hieda no Akyuu' would be 'Akyuu of Hieda' in English.

Put all my Touhou music back on the computer at last, and then go and have a party listening to it all night!

@Sssgth: So it's also like the German "von" (as in Ludwig von Beethoven)?

Fairly sure it's Ludwig van Beethoven.

And then I find myself hilariously wondering if Haruna's second upgrade is going to be Reimu.

@Sssgth: So it's also like the German "von" (as in Ludwig von Beethoven)?

Well, whatever it is, Goomba here is wrong; Beethoven is his surname, while Ludwig is his given name. It's just that artists tend to be referred to with their last names.

Wonder if I'm missing anything.

When the painting of Kaguya you made several years back still hangs on your wall till this day...

When you call all of your problems, "incidents"
The definitions of the two words were very similar to begin with.

Seriously, all of the female Inkay I catch are named Seija. I have an Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres named Letty, Raiko, and Mokou (respectively), Garchomp named Tokiko (don't ask), Honchkrow named Okuu, Krookodile named Anastasis (don't care if not from a canon game), Dragonite named Meiling, Shiftry named Hatate, Nidoqueen named Sukuna, Huntail named Iku, and Metagross named Nue. I think I have a few more but I can't remember right now.
