The bastards! If this is true, then no wonder ZUN decided to get a move on.

From what I know, ANIMATE announced this crossover as a "Collaboration".
The fans thought this meant that ZUN was officially involved in making Touhou as an animation, a premise that ZUN stated in his past that he does not wish to be involved.
You can imagine a great surge of influx ZUN was prodded by enraged fans, asking, "Did you collaborate in an anime project recently?"
I'm guessing ZUN is a bit bitter about it.

Call me strange but I honestly think Zun mite be afraid of being too famous, maybe he doesn?t want to be internationally known. Or perhaps he is honestly a little disturbed by some of the stuff coming out, the Marisa B bug comics are horrible to give an example.

I dont think its because he's afraid of being popular. As someone else said, Hell, two posts or so back, Someone said they were making an anime collab with the touhou project, which is implying ZUN has his hand in it, which he doesnt. I think this is one of those decisions where your only trying to aim at one group, but you say stupid shit and seem like a dick. Also, I'm pretty damned sure ZUN himself knows that Touhou's popularity is 70% fandom. How many people get introduced to mario via a fanfic/other fan work? Maybe 1%. Introduced to touhou via fanfic/PV or something else? Chances are higher then 50%.
