| Tengukami:
I really don't get that impression. Seems to me people have plenty of things to say about Okina, for example, and are excited about the implications she brings. |

But, is it me, or are the new characters just not resonating with anyone? --- End quote --- I kinda feel that way. I was kinda expecting to be surprised, but I don't feel very invested in any of them. Like, I expected something different because of the comment in the last thread that something would be off with the boss(es), but then all of a sudden it turns out to be a mistranslation/misinterpretation mentioned right after the game came out and I feel...disappointed I guess? ??? Maybe it's because what the final boss ended up being was on the mark, but I don't really feel wowed by anything in this game. Narumi is cute though. |

I'm actually really impressed by the new characters since I think they have the most story potential out of all the recent games so far. Okina's connection to the story is pretty obvious, what with her being a youkai sage. I'd be surprised if Larva didn't appear in the fairies manga, and Naruko can be added to Marisa and Alice to make a "Forest of Magic magicians" group, so something interesting could occur there. I'd say even Nemuno adds something to the mountain youkai society previously dominated by kappa and tengu (although I don't really expect much to come from it) and Aunn can easily appear at any shrine scene and it wouldn't be weird. Compare that to the Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom characters, where most of the characters get shuttled back off to non-Gensokyo worlds and we never see them again. In particular I think Junko's the only final boss where the girls didn't sit down and have tea with her after everything was over, so she feels really distant compared to the other game bosses. And I don't think the Double Dealing Character characters have had manga appearances, either, except for I think Shinmyoumaru in Forbidden Scrollery (and I can't even remember what she was there for). |
| Tiamat:
While I like the storyline and character-relationship connections of most of them (not just Okina. Pretty much all of them besides the backup dancers are connected to someone in some way) and am excited for the direction the overall Touhou storyline seems to be going in, the character designs of the individual characters themselves aren't particularly intriguing to me. But then, that goes for most Touhou characters for me, really. I do find Narumi appealing for some reason though even if her character design seems kinda plain. Maybe it's just the pose and hairstyle *shrug* |
| TresserT:
After playing this game a bit more, I'm finding I really like playing as Cirno/Summer. Being able to breeze through stages, and constantly being able to shotgun spam level 5s and 6s on bosses is extremely useful. I'm not getting a low score either. |
