When you get a copy of it, tell us your thoughts of personally playing it if you can. I feel like this'll be interesting.

lol whatever the Japanese original is, I won't ever use the word "secondaries" the way 4chan wield it, even in a context of showing disapproval of its users.


In today's (Aug 9) Touhou Station #4 stream, ZUN began by revealing that his grandmother had passed away 5 days before the master copy deadline, and he absolutely needed to spend 2 days back at his hometown attending the funeral. He considered giving up on Summer Comiket, but the print company (for pressing the disc) gave him one additional day to finish the game.

At the end, he also said AoCF is "30% complete".

My condolences to his family...  May God be with his family and comfort them all...

And I think it's safe to say AoCF isn't being released this year anymore...

Other things:
The show started with a survey report on Touhou doujin circles, except only 16 out of 117 surveyed circles responded.

ZUN: "If you have worked hard, you can easily achieve about 90% satisfaction. You need perseverance and spending money to bring it up to 100%."

Stories of "biggest loss you ever had":
- 6,000 yen: Nobody bought the circle's first ever (photocopied) doujin. (10 yen * 20 pages * 30 copies = 6000 yen)

- 400,000 yen: Respondent: "As expected, it didn't sell."

- 50,000 yen: Respondent: "People didn't get references to Ephemeral Moon..."
ZUN: "Ephemeral Moon was not very well liked when it came out, but has plenty of fans these days."

- 15 million yen: Due to using an expensive printing/binding format.
ZUN: "There is no loss [in the fiscal sense] in making doujin, because it involves no capital."

On changes they are seeing:
- The number of young fans have increased.
- The backlash against people who don't know a lot about the original Touhou (ah yes, "secondaries") have receded. It has become easier to declare yourself someone who only recently became a fan.

Part 2 had guests play the Last Words from IN. ZUN called "Unseaonsal Butterfly Storm" easy. He got immediately shot down by "Ancient Duper" himself.

Ancient Duper is a jerk spell card :V Damn it Tewi.
