Totally (not) looking forward to hearing Sakurei complain about this new game when it's finally revealed and lament about the death of the series! Oh wait, she's banned, so we won't hear from her here anymore.

And the last good game was?

It doesn't matter what they think the last good game was. It's just a simply-put response to the clamor about mechanics.

And how about let's not cowardly attack other people who can't reply back, hm? With strawmen, no less?

I'd do it even if she was around.

And I've never really understood the "attacking from behind means cowardice" mindset. I think doing that is being smart and not wasting unnecessary effort. Batman attacks his opponents from behind all the time, and you don't see anyone accusing him of being a coward.

What Batman does has nothing to do with attacking banned users for no reason. Sakurei is no saint, but what you're doing isn't cool.

Fairly certain Das was just joking and some of you guys feel like it matters more than it did so don't worry much about it?

Personally I did enjoy DDC as of the last few game releases, I also liked LoLK but mainly for scoring the easier difficulties, going for 1cc seemed to indeed be a bit of a bombspamfest to me...

Would be nice to see a new game being released, hopefully one that's a bit tough (doesn't give many resources, think of CAVE shooters for example here) but also fun to score.

This, and prolly a game with patterns that are actually fun to dodge. I mean, Touhou 13 was still good, but I'd have dropped Touhou 14 if not for the good music and the first 3 bosses, and I don't remember ever playing Touhou 15 other than for showing off.

Something that can surpass SA and UFO in both difficulty and fun would make this year awesome.

Third issue preorder is already up on Amazon.

Oh damn double post time.

Here's third issue cover art.
I can't barely read anything that's not "arrange" but black font says "東方Project書籍の流儀" ("Touhou Project Style Books". Yeah not very clear lol)

ZM · « **Reply #189 on:** March 02, 2017, 03:42:16 AM »

Patiently waiting for the next part of the boss ratings. That was easily the best and most interesting part of the previous volume.

Also any Sanae content would be pretty sugoi, too.

N-Forza · « **Reply #190 on:** March 02, 2017, 05:52:28 AM »

Man, this completely snuck up on me. I'm going to have to pick it up next time I'm in town.

Looks like there's no cross review this time, but the who's who column includes the early stage bosses of TH 6-7-8 that weren't there last time.

PoriPori Club today!

ZUN: Today I've been abruptly called to attend PoriPori Club. I'm kind of right in the middle of crunch time though

Crunch time for what, hmm? Definitely not for a Reitaisai work as was predicted, couldn't be

(It actually might still be Bunka Shinpou but that's cutting it a bit close)

N-Forza · « **Reply #194 on:** March 25, 2017, 03:36:10 PM »

He actually received the preview copy of the book a day or two ago so yeah, probably the game.

PK · « **Reply #195 on:** September 04, 2017, 07:13:38 PM »

SCoOW 4 incoming.

Edit: according to Makoto Hirasaka there will be an interview with him too.
https://twitter.com/hirasaka8/status/910423470609121280

Also apparently he said the next VFiS chapter

Spoiler:

https://twitter.com/hirasaka8/status/911478369736302592

Can't figure out what the second half of the tweet actually means.

Hirasaka is having hand tremors from withdrawal (presumably from smoking), but a new character will be introduced as well as interesting new developments so he hopes you enjoy the chapter.

Yay for official Aki!

Drake · « **Reply #199 on:** October 12, 2017, 05:40:18 AM »

It's as official as any other store-exclusive bonus item, i.e. not? The art is almost definitely commissioned by the stores alone, aiming to sell copies of the product over other stores.

the "official"-ness of guest art in works is pretty questionable anyways

game2011 · « **Reply #200 on:** October 13, 2017, 04:30:27 PM »

The fact it appeared in an official print media is official enough for me.

Any information about ZUN's HSiFS interview?

SCoOW 5 ought to be released at the end of March.

https://www.kadokawa.co.jp/product/321712000162/

Are they trying to make a map of Gensokyo?

Cover preview i suppose
https://twitter.com/chiba_sama/status/976712821013585920

Only 4 days left before it comes out. Is it normal that online shops still don't show the cover in the product page?

It depends on the shop, i think..

but if they all do this.. yes?

Huh, I wonder who's that one under Reimu. Her hair looks a bit too long (and no headband) to be Youmu. Anyone knows who is she?

martelefort · « **Reply #208 on:** March 28, 2018, 11:54:15 PM »

I'm wondering who that might be, too, though it looks like a hatless Koishi to me

Failure McFailFace · « **Reply #209 on:** March 29, 2018, 02:41:01 AM »

Probably Marisa. Has the blond hair, and the signature side braid. Also dark clothes.
