Hi, Im new to the Touhou community, and I have NO IDEA WHAT IT'S ABOUT!!!

just got my pack from japan yesterday(except the hl2

i'm reading a post-super-mario fanfic about luigi and kamek being friends :>

this has so much meme potential >:D

I generally don't feel like starting with Touhou 6 is a really good idea for newcomers. Touhou 6 is one of the harder games in the Touhou series and could be a little overwhelming for newcomers. I think that Touhou 7, 8 or 4 would be better choices to get started with the Touhou games, as they are easier (especially Touhou 8 which is regarded as the easiest game in the first windows era), they also felt more player friendly for me. I'm not saying you can't start with Touhou 6, I'm just saying that it's not really the best idea for newcomers that don't really know what they are getting into.

Sorry to pop in unannounced... over 20 posts and I had completely forgotten about introductions! As you can see my username, I go by Kymoh. How is it pronounced? Dunno. I've had this account for several months now, but it's only been recently that I've started to become more active. Hopefully I don't lose interest :) Anyways, a few basic points about me: -Discovered touhou 1-2 years ago. Still a casual fan. I know the most popular characters (like those in Bad Apple MV) but not much else. -Bad at video games in general. I've played Touhou 4, 6, 12.3, but haven't beat any of them at 1CC easy ugh -Adding to that, I like video games involving building fighting vehicles (Space Engineers, Terratech, Sprocket, Robocraft) -Favorite character: ?? I like Orange from Touhou 4, but she's not well-known so I often say Reimu. -Favorite color: Orange lol -Hobbies: Making games, dancing, playing games Now you know a bit about me :) Feel free to ask any questions!

Thanks! This place has been great so far! Yumetou, you've been especially fun to talk to :) Always coming up with interesting topics or stories Also yep, Orange is a bit random. You can blame that on me only playing touhou 4, and never getting much further than her XD Also also, thanks for complimenting my profile picture! Although I just picked a random picture and forgot to change it later... Might change it to a more cheerful character one day... Oh boy, I say too much when I'm tired I apologize to whoever is reading this ^^'

Hi, here's the short answer: Touhou is a big video game series, mainly shoot-em-up bullet hells. They are made by one guy named Zun. But that's unimportant lol. Here are main points you wanna know: -VERY GOOD SOUNDTRACK! Zun has made hundreds of songs, and they are all very good. In fact, the whole point of making games was to spread his music! -A HUGE variety of characters! They're all cute girls with special abilities, and I think there's over 200 unique characters -EXTREMELY TALENTED COMMUNITY! Literally countless fanworks of touhou exist. Hundreds of remixes of just one theme, it blows your mind! All of these points combine to let touhou spread everywhere online, and it seems like it got to you as well :) So, join in on the fun and enjoy what the community has to offer! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you're a bit lost, here are some ways to get started: -You could always download the original games here, but they are a bit difficult (if you want to play a game, try touhou 6). -You could easily search up "touhou [genre you like]" and learn more about the songs that you liked (I did this for a while). -You could watch touhou videos, whether that be memes or character introductions or whatever. -You could ask questions about touhou here or some other forum. ...Or all of those at once! PS: To the proffessional touhou fans out there, please correct me or expand points that I missed

Welcome to the shrine Kymoh! I know you'll be a fun addition to the site here. The Shrine has always felt nothing but cozy to me, and I'm sure you'll have fun. :) Reimu and Orange? Not quite what I expected. Yuuka looks very nice as your pfp!
