I really need to get a touhou picture folder. Some guy I knew had 10gb of these. Browsing around the interwebs... Danbooru is a bad idea. Too much NSFW stuff there... Unless you're into that. Safebooru is much better ^_^. You could also check out Kona-Chan for a ton of anime wallpapers.

Seems like an odd thing to do, introducing generic features that everyone loves and then taking them away. I for one desperately want a spellcard practice feature. It's so aggravating having to play through an entire stage just to practice a boss's spellcard once. The guy loves to experiment. He does something different every game. Last Words were part of the spell card practice element. If you mean Last SPELLS though, then I think it was part of the "time" element that he put into IN. Last Spells can be easily abused for extra points, and it fits the theme of IN fairly well. Multiple endings... I'm not sure. Ultimately both endings were fairly similar, so I don't think that there was too much difference between them other than spell cards. Maybe he also had an extra character left over. As for spell card practice, I think it kind of ruins your stage runs if you practice them enough ^_^. Also, IN's spell cards were generally static and easily memorized/have a set pattern to go through them. A lot of the spell cards in later games also are more random than aimed/static. Frankly, most spell cards now come down to game sense to capture. On September 18 2009 08:50 tyr wrote: I believe that by "multiple endings" he means the two versions of the level 6 of IN and of course, Eirin/Kaguya. As for the answer, I'm not really sure, but from what I understand, Spell Practice, while being awesome, made the game pretty easy, even on harder difficulty levels, precisely because you could take one particular spellcard and play it over and over again until you can pass it without any problems. So if it took you 200 tries, in a another game, it would have meant 200 runs. I suggest you try Shoot the Bullet (th9.5) for a "spell practice only" game. Probably the hardest Touhou so far, also. StB... Lame game. I never really got into it ^_^. Might I suggest Moedan. Much more fun... and cute (if you can still find a working version).

I wouldn't know where to look to verify this, but I think this is the case. o,o That's probably the case. A lot of Touhou music can be easily remixable to different genres. Trance is no exception. | ||

It doesn't seem like stuff you can buy outside of comiket... mostly... But here's a youtube link to a track from one of my favorite albums. "Just the Death of Us." | ||

What do you mean that Reitaisai will overtake Comiket? Reitaisai pretty much is Touhou only isn't it? How will it surpass Comiket? And @ Thesecretaznman. That song is... Pure... Weirdness... I couldn't recognize the original theme at all. | ||

Really? Never knew that it could match the might of Comiket :O Then again, Touhou is awesome anyway, but to be more powerful than the Otakus always seemed like an absurd idea to me... Until now. | ||

For touhou music, just go to www.doujinstyle.com There, they have all of the games and a lot of albums under the touhou music section. They have some other stuff there as well (wink wink). Glad to find some starcraft touhou fans  | ||

Pretty good I must say. For those who don't have nico account. | ||

Not many videos for it, but this gives a good show of what the game is about. Also has PvP :D. | ||

Based on the comments/tags, this is Touhou related. I still haven't played any of those games, but I like the doujin productions that come out of this. :D | ||
