When you keep naming your female/gender neutral pokemon after Touhous.

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.

I have a Kyurem named Yukari. I saw it was called the Border Pokemon and couldn't resist...

I wrote a crossover fic between the Colosseum universe and Touhou. You can find a link in the footer!

These trumpets sound like ZUNpets. These too.

Glass Menagerie sounds like the name of a Touhou song.

In Yoshi's Woolly World, the health bars of the Yoshis are circular and surround them, like the health bars of the Touhou bosses in TD, DDC, and ISC. However, they fill up clockwise instead of counterclockwise.

I was watching a Tales of Destiny LP (because I am on a retro games kick). Literally screamed out something about Marisa when Rutee was having one of her thievery moments.

I was speaking with a friend yesterday and at some point he tells me about another person he knows that have heterochromia....

I had to restrain myself from screaming "KOGASA!" out of the blue

(not helped by the fact that i am on a binge-reading of both "Hang in there Kogasa san/chan")
My friend looked at me oddly and asked "Why are you smiling like a loon?" :V

When you get a bit giddy over formally learning how to write 厄 in a Heisig lesson.

Playing other bullet-hell style games and wishing there was a focus button that isn't being used for a gimmick (or just focused movement in general).

This tends to happen to me after long periods of playing Touhou and I decide to go to another game in the genre like Shikigami no Shiro II.

When you read BBSS as "Battleship submarine".

When the first thing you do after wake up is: Go to Danbooru, search Touhou, and scream like hell when find out that your favorite 4koma serie has been uploaded, and then scream like hell, again ... when find out that it hasn't been translated (Since you don't know Japanese)

You know when you're addicted to Touhou when you make fangames and animations, of course.

When your hands immediately reach for the arrow and Shift/Z/X buttons when you should be focused on learning C#.

Programming lessons aren't going well :V

When your first Arduino project is a manual version of a spellcard history. Made it because I practice by doing 5 captures and frequently forget what I'm on.

Justin · « **Reply #584 on:** August 31, 2014, 09:47:47 PM »

When something you need to learn for history is the "Line of Demarcation" and Rumia's spellcard IMMEDIATELY popped into mind.

When you're comparing your friends to Touhou characters.

Pirated · « **Reply #586 on:** September 01, 2014, 09:50:51 PM »

When you stop using emojis and start using characters' faces

Espadas · « **Reply #587 on:** September 06, 2014, 11:29:03 AM »

When you discover Puzzle and Dragons aaaaand:

1) before knowing Touhou you would have aimed for a team of badasses like Zeus, Ares, Gold Saints etc....

2) now, all you can think of is: "Bastet, Bastet, Bastet...."

True story, this is me :V (too bad atm i can't even start play... mobile older than dirt and living in Spain isn't a good combo)

Since today happens to be Cirno Day, I decided to celebrate it on Steam. I changed my avatar to Cirno, my name to "Cirno-chan The Strong" and added "HAPPY CIRNO DAY GUYS" to my summary.
Later that day, I found one of my friends on TF2 taking song requests and playing them. I decided to join the server he was on and tell him to play a Cirno song to celebrate this occasion. I managed to get him to play both Cirno's Perfect Math Class and Chirumiru. I then said "HAPPY CIRNO DAY EVERYONE" before leaving the server.
Also, I'm pretty sure that none of my friends on Steam have any idea what Touhou is. And yet I got him to play those songs.
Today has been the best Cirno Day ever.

WELL LUCKY YOU.

Everything went to stupid on Cirno Day for me. My phone screen broke, my retainers didn't fit, my internet derped, I came down sick with a whopper of a cold...it SUCKS. IT. SUCKS. My point is that you may have had best day ever...but I had the worst. I think I cursed the ice fairy's name 20 times yesterday, Yukari another 5, and my point is? That I don't even want to talk about Cirno Day atm.

Justin · « **Reply #590 on:** September 10, 2014, 09:31:23 PM »

When you're really upset that you forgot yesterday was Cirno day :qq:

EDIT:
Never mind!

I misspelled my name when I typed it on the concussion exam!
(Justi)
I am actually thrilled right now.

Goomba98 · « **Reply #591 on:** September 10, 2014, 11:13:55 PM »

When you forget yesterday was Cirno Day, but don't mind because there wasn't much you could do to celebrate.

It's the mid-autumn season, so I drew myself Kaguya.
Cirno can wait! :V

Evil_Nazgul0616 · « **Reply #593 on:** September 11, 2014, 12:43:47 AM »

Yesterday I uploaded a video in celebration of Cirno Day.

If that isn't a way you know you're addicted to Touhou, I don't know what is... (also when almost every single youtube video you have contains touhou in some way...)

I'm playing a god game where you have to build houses to get your population up.

There are red bubbles that you collect called "Belief." I keep calling them "Faith"....

When anytime you see something that talks about Youkai you automatically try and connect it to touhou characters.

When the beginning of fall or winter you think of Letty or the Aki sisters are at work, then you realized that touhou has become an obsession and not an addiction... *sigh*

There is a cherry tree outside my house, and in the Spring... well, I know it's probably safe, but I still try not to get too distracted by the blossoms. Just in case.

Speaking of Spring, I never paid such close attention to the date it starts before I was a fan. I'm celebrating with you, Lily!~
