You're friendly neighborhood Hime here! I found this place by chance and figured "Hey I like Touhou and talking to people so why not?" It may sound odd, but I am actually happy to be surrounded by people who know SO much more about Touhou than me. I'm sure some of you know what I'm talking about right? Particularly irl where you're more likely to catch a fish at the pool than meet another Touhou fan! Anyway, I always want to learn more about the series and love to hear what others think, such as their preferred characters, games, and other such official/fanworks of the series. (The best feeling for a Touhou fan: "That exists?! I didn't know! *goes to obtain said unknown new Touhou Shiny* So yea, this intro is getting too long and caffeine and such so yea, please be patient as I'm still learning... though I do know one thing for sure: WE NEED MORE HATATE *cough* Also always down to chat on discord!

Haha maybe we should just create the content ourselves. No really, that line by Yumetou was rather inspiring. Geez way to go. Now I wanna make content lol. Anyway, we can make something, with each of us contributing what we may and make the content we all believe is lacking. After all, isn't this where the best fanworks have come from? The desire to add more to the Gensokyo they already love? Regardless of how 'good' or 'bad' it does, we would be adding the things we like. Rather than the mentality of being the next big thing, we do it for fun. We could become serious about it or not. I'm semi-serious about that idea. If anyone is seriously considering what I said, even if for fun, I'd be up to discuss it. I wouldn't know what I can contribute myself beyond 'wanting it to happen' but hey you never know I might have some hidden awesome ability and maybe some of you do too if you don't already have an ability you're known for! ...Oh yea this is about brainrot lol. Um well, a lot was said but this one caught my eye so maybe the 'cure' is things that do the opposite such as "prioritizing the past/future and contextualize content" instead and seek a place that does so? In fact Books come to mind as the anti YT/tiktok/TV/etc.

guys it’s the koakuma of all time

Ever had an idea for a spell card for an official/fan/own character yet lack the tools and/or experience to make it a reality? Then this post is for you. As a type of sister post to Original Characters Anonymous, but purely for spellcards. It's fine with me if you created a spellcard for Daiyousei and described how it went or created a spellcard for your Mary Sue-type OC and described it here. All are welcome to create any spellcard here. And hey, maybe your idea might be breathed into life by someone who does if you post here. Ground Rules As would be expected of a spellcard, it must follow the spellcard rules. I'll list them here so you don't have to go far when checking if it follows the rules. 1. Give a name and a meaning to the elegance of the duel. 2.Meaning is equivalent to power. Those are the two rules that apply to any spellcard here. Additional Rules As there are some unspoken rules and general rules due to the limitations of writing, I'm going to outline them here. 1. The spellcard must draw from your character's ability/abilities. 2. A description of the meaning of the attack is necessary. 3. A general outline of the attack in question. Bonus Points Giving your spellcard variations depending on the difficulty. For the rest you're free to let your imagination go wild. Now go forth and create that spellcard you've always been dreaming of!

this is so awesome hatate bring the awesome card

I don't think its a secret I work too much. Its one of my biggest obstacles for getting into new hobbies. Its hard to find time to read manga or get into a series when your 9-5 goes 9-9. Half the time I don't even get breaks. On days like that, nothing lifts my heart quite like a fumo video. There's an innocence and simplicity to them I enjoy (and the comments section usually laughs at my jokes which is a plus). Not to mention you don't need to be a lore nerd to understand much of the humor which helps with getting normies to watch. 'Haha pink haired doll hungry dolls can't eat spaghetti!' That said, yeah. Its hard to find decent english fan material. The other day there was a dude in chat who wanted to know if there was any English animated Touhou series worth seeing. He'd seen Little Reimu and its sequel and didn't care for KKHTA. I happened to have stumbled on an animation weeks before of an animated Touhou picturebook for children. It was a beautiful thing. Quality art, unique style, good jokes, sentimental but not saccharine, animated and translated from Japanese. It got 25k views on Youtube. Less than a lot of videos about funny plushies, loli sex tourists or fishimg rods. This person had poured a massive amount of effort into reaching Westerners with a quality video and it got totally upstaged. They only made one other video. It got about 16k views. Meanwhile 'What if your favorite anime girl was evil and had the crazy' has dozens of references in videos with much higher viewcounts. Much less KKHTA itself. It takes a lot to make a quality product. Be that an animation, doujin or game. Finding time alone can be a challenge. But nothing burns quite as much as throwing in so much work and make something good. Only for no one to care. But trust me. Someone will. It just sometimes takes awhile.

I’ve got burnout on monster hunter and still find myself coming back to it. You can enjoy a series even when you wanna be involved with other ones. I’d say it be fine to maybe just take a break and enjoy what other series you wanna enjoy, instead of worrying about not being a fan of another series. Overall, just play and get involved in what is enjoyable to you and don’t worry about it.
