It even breaks the fourth wall!

There's one already but... this one includes the effects of fan popularity and memes?

EDIT: Also, Marisa's theme in Touhou Sky Arena (the PV used a snippet from the middle)

Three rabbit races?

Reimu whitout any flaw endearment? And having the hard working bonus??

Touhou characters whitout hats are possible at the cost of a single life???

What kind of memes has that guy been using?

Can you point those out to me? I see two rabbit races, Reimu with the racial ability of "Work Ethic (Ahahaha.)", and nothing about hats.

Meh, nevermind, seems like there's indeed two diferent rabbit races and the lunarians are a race on their own after all.

Hats are on the intro parts, when calculating your starting lifes, somewhere near the first Might description.

And Reimu should be an alchoolic. For starters.

At first I thought it was the rumored reworked version, but it seems this is a different one.

Maybe it's just assumed as a matter of course? Everyone in Touhou is an alcoholic until proven otherwise, I'm pretty sure.

[spoiler]Playable characters: I see Youmu, Marisa (obviously), Sanae, Reimu (obviously), and... can't tell who that is on the fourth cap. Looks like either another Marisa or Sakuya to me.

The main character is always two people and Marisa, Reimu, Sanae enable the Holy Spirit is to be utilized, and four people trying to dispose of the Holy Spirit Youmu out of control.

Goddammit, Google Translate... I'll grab a kanji dictionary tomorrow and see if I can make sense of it.
EDIT: Looks to me like it's supposed to say something like "The main characters are four consisting of the usual pair of Reimu and Marisa, Sanae who employs divine spirits, and Youmu who disposes of [can't tell] divine spirits(s)." Something like that. So no Sakuya, probably. [/spoiler]

[oslecamo]

Heaven it was about time!

If Youmu is a playable character, and Sakuya isn't, the fandom will rage.

Sanae seems to be geting the hang of being a shrine maiden as she's coming back as a playable character.

Also it's just me or Reimu's skirt actually geting shorter? Two possible explanations:

-Her clothes get damaged in each game, and due to lack of money she has no solution but to reduce their size to fix them.
-She's literally growing out of her clothes.

Translation of the important bits.

The gist of it is that the next Reitaisai will have a demo for game 13. The story involves ghosts, ghosts everywhere. I imagine it's like SA but worse. Turns out it's some sort of of holy/divine spirits. He's unclear on whether they're all that sort of ghost, or just led by one. Ghosts, anyway. Holy and whatnot.

Marisa and Reimu are, as per usual, weirded out and intend to beat things up until everything works again.

Sanae wants to find some way to use the situation/the holy spirit(s) to her advantage.

Youmu is just going to exorcise a bunch of ghosts even though it's way out of her jurisdiction.



Also, he said he'll be keeping the difficulty/complexity fairly mild this time around. Well, mild by his utterly demented standards, I assume.

The rest is random musing that has nothing to do with anything.



Short version: March 13th or around then, demo for Touhou 13, lots of ghosts, playable Reimu/Marisa/Sanae/Youmu, probably an easier and simpler game.

So yes, Youmu, but no Sakuya. Apparently lots of ghosts around. That's a perfect opportunity for ZUN to... troll the fans by not bringing Mima back.

Considering how in UFO they crashed into Makai in a giant ship and there was no Shinki anywhere, yes, the chances of Mima apearing in a major ghost acident are basically null.

Also it's hilarious that after Phantasmagoria Flower View, where the Death God herself told Youmu that she shouldn't be purging gods outside the Netherworld, and told Yuyu to educate her in such matters, she's doing it again. Of course, Yuyu being Yuyu, perhaps it was the only logical conclusion.

Well, that was fast. (Danbooru link, yadda yadda.)

[Prime32]

Well, that was fast. (Danbooru link, yadda yadda.)

The only pic tagged "Ten Desires" so far. And speaking of tags, there's got to be a better term than "maid headdress".

Gotta look good for the new game...

That Remilia looks best I think, Flan works, but looks too evil for my taste(might be the dimmer colors on her bling wingz).

Well after playing several of the routes of Phantasmagoria Flower View, I must say I now view Yuuka as one of the heaviest hitters in Touhouverse.

Specially because even Cirno, who leads every battle on her route with some variation of "EYE THE STRONGEST!", was scared enough to want to run away just by meeting Yuuka.

Yeah, no shit! Yuuka is fucking scary!

Cirno has the guts to gun down Utsuho, but you'd know that if she runs away from Yuuka, you better run too.

Speaking of Cirno, theres suddenly a lot of frozen frogs all over the internet.
