Waiting for new FDS chapters makes me so anxious now. I'm scared.
I got to watch SBR episode 2 with my friends yesterday. Two of them have never read it before and it is so fun to watch them react, completely unaware that this series is going to change their lives by the end. Y'all are right about the ED though. Fucking terrible. What were they thinking lmao.
Beatbreak finale was pretty good. I don't think it was the best Digimon series of all time or anything, but it has been so comforting to have a show like this running where it's clear the showrunners really understand what Digimon is all about. Not perfect, but a real return to form.
Modern Fire Emblem really feels like a Surf Dracula situation I'm ngl
About 10 hours into Fortune's Weave. (Theodora ch7) Game seems to be exactly as I thought. Great story, characters, art direction, etc. Gameplay is only okay. On hard classic and everything is still super easy. Kind of disappointing since Engage managed to put up a fight by chapter 3 or 4
秋イベント新刊です! 本文サンプルを含めたちゃんとした告知は後日やりますので装丁の話していいですか これ煙のアウトラインや文字の灰色のところ銀インクです 紙はマーメイド紙 PP無しです 裏表紙は漫画本文の線画カットを銀インクにして存分に銀インク使うデザインにしてあります でこぼこの紙に特殊インクって地味だけど萌えみたいな所がありまして本当に楽しみです実物
The blatantly incorrect names are naturally the stand-out here, but the tiny Lily sprite on a pitch black background really speaks to me personally.
Since the manga is so short, the book also has a bunch of random stuff to fill pages. This includes a "Beginner's Guide to Touhou" featuring extremely useful and accurate information.
Finally got Eastern and Little Nature Deity. This was the only print work I did not yet have. It took me forever to find one that actually had the CD.
Sometimes I will receive an unfortunate reminder that I am not immune to Konami's DM nostalgia pandering. Look how cool these stupid losers are. It's insane.
Obviously it wouldn't have served a purpose in the game, but I do wish Dai and Koa got full artwork. All EoSDNC is missing is a gallery for the art and omake. Could've included scans of ZUN's original concept art too but they are intent on keeping that for in-person events only for some reason.
The biggest revelation from this game is that Daiyousei is unfortunately chopped
Wait I just booted up the music player app you get in the bundle. There's a new song in New Classic for Extra Phantom
The early touhou community genuinely did such a good job of interpreting ZUN's drawings. All the new little details and corrections we get to see in new classic are just kind of worse than the fanon designs lol. I refuse to accept a Patchy without stripes or whatever Rumia is doing with her hands
My piece for @dotzines.bsky.social Fairy Fiesta ~ Hide and Seek zine!! There's a lot to look at here. Try to find Cirno! #9月9日はチルノの日
The original EoSD soundtrack had such an undescribable ethereal charm to it that obviously couldn't be recaptured. But I think most of the remixes do at least match up in their own way and really stand out as far as ZUN's modern music goes. The new UN Owen was her is a direct improvement though imo
I am so bad at playing touhou on controller but I'm still on vacation for a few days so I don't have access to my computer. I'm getting cooked on switch
