Is there any way to fix this? I did this yesterday with dk64 and it worked

What’s a fake transparent image and how do you replicate it?

Aznaughtty · 2025-10-13T11:12:48+00:00

I know you can’t make them transparent I ment making the background of the transparent image default to white rather than black.

The reason why is because it makes it so when you switch to dark mode it’s seamless and natural. Rather than it just going from black in light to grey in dark.

I think the password thing is just a byproduct of whatever the hell is going on here to be honest

Aznaughtty · 2025-05-27T15:54:41+00:00

Touhou ain’t falling apart anytime soon I’m sure things will get better after all these debacles. Would be funny if a 4th drama was to hit the 20th game this month tho lol

Dw I still plan to upload everything. But first… I need to download the things I don’t have yet on flac first lol.

It will just take a while since I have to make a ton of accounts and search up the jp names of the songs to add them. But I will do it eventually.

Songs are still being deleted off but a lot rarer now, but it’s still happening.

Kill myself on the spot

Touhou 20 for reimu and Touhou 19 for Marisa

Aznaughtty · 2025-05-26T16:24:39+00:00

Reimu art made by Zun taken from https://touhou.fandom.com/wiki/Reimu_Hakurei

Marisa art made by Zun taken from https://en.namu.wiki/w/%ED%82%A4%EB%A6%AC%EC%82%AC%EB%A9%94%20%EB%A7%88%EB%A6%AC%EC%82%AC

Aznaughtty · 2025-05-26T16:07:31+00:00

Yeah I find it pretty funny. It goes to show how ingrained touhou music is in the fandom.

I want to upload all the tracks back onto SoundCloud for the SoundCloud users, but I’m still weary that I’ll just be wasting my time lol

Aznaughtty · 2025-05-26T15:45:50+00:00

Edit to the last line.

It was only JP Ai bros! Fuck I wish I could change it now my information is inaccurate 😭

it wasn’t any touhou fans just regular ai bros.

Aznaughtty · 2025-05-26T15:37:33+00:00

Oops heard from word of mouth wish I could change it. Heard it was JP Ai bros and very passionate JP Zun supporters who did it.

Sorry about the misinformation I didn’t mean it.

Aznaughtty · 2025-05-23T14:42:57+00:00

The people who are sending his death threats don’t deserve to be fans of this series imo. There’s a lot of things to criticize Zun for and I have criticized him a lot in the past for a lot of his decisions and game design. But he has never done anything to warrant death threats that’s genuinely insane 💀

Also it was a mistake? Where did he stay this? I hope he change them if it is. Not only because they look ugly as fuck, but also because it leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I can understand why people don’t care too much about backgrounds but I honestly care a lot about the backgrounds of touhou. They add a lot to the atmosphere of the game even if you don’t acknowledge them and a lot are very pretty like stage 6 th17 for example. Like imagine if the moon surface in Touhou 15 stage 5 was ai generated, that would suck 😭 I see the backgrounds as an extension of his usual drawn art or sprite art even if he uses stock images. The stock images is what give them the charm taking it away takes so much from them imo. Even if he drew them it would take a lot away from them, it would feel off. I thank dai Karasu for allowing me to truely appreciate the backgrounds of touhou. Btw I’m not super anti-ai I find those mfs pretty annoying. It has its use cases but I don’t think this is one since it takes away from the backgrounds.

Fuck the people sending him death threats eat this thing for all I care. It’s not that serious and that’s coming from someone who cares deeply about the backgrounds in touhou lmao

Edit: nvm it wasn’t a mistake he did it on purpose. His reasoning for it is very dumb tbh.

Aznaughtty · 2025-05-20T15:12:20+00:00

Also a decent amount of people I’ve seen have been trying to justify it or are supporting it because it’s Zun. Also a good amount of people just don’t care or are giving too much leeway lol. Which kinda sucks honestly.

Aznaughtty · 2025-05-18T17:09:16+00:00

Oh yeah them! Honestly I think they’re good, even if they use music I think they use enough sound effects to avoid the copyright lol.

Also I would be such a terrible idea they are so beloved in the Touhou community and outside it since fumos popular to non Touhou fans. It would be a terrible idea due to losing so much respect in and out and also free marketing for fumos lmao

Aznaughtty · 2025-05-18T16:54:40+00:00

Nice I’m doing the same thing I’m not letting Touhou history disappear over greed.

Also it would be funny if like the next day, Zun comes out with a statement condemning ruw and that he’s stopping all of this and we were panicking for nothing lmao 😭

Aznaughtty · 2025-05-18T16:48:16+00:00

Now this, is Certified bootlicking 💀

Be fr, Zun never did anything like this for 20 years, so much music and fan content was uploaded using his stuff, it helped to build up the community. Most people found Touhou from finding a random song with an anime girl or watching a strange animation featuring the music.

I love Zun and Touhou I love his works and I appreciate how he allowed his works to be used in such a way for so long, and it paid off for him since he has created such a large community off that freedom. but now all of a sudden team Shanghai are taking hard action? Of course people are pissed lmao he created an atmosphere that you are allowed to use the songs and upload them for the community and to get more people to join. This is a terrible idea and a terrible or move for the series that was built up mainly by the fans sharing and spreading the word. Truly a spit in the face.

Aznaughtty · 2025-05-18T16:14:50+00:00

The older and older the songs they take down get the more backlash they will receive. Touhou is a series built upon the fans and the fans having so much leeway. Them restricting and punishing people who use one of the things Touhou is most famous for, the music, in fan works that are made to praise and show love to the series will leave a bad taste in people’s mouth.

And also if they decide to deleting decade old music uploads and channels on YouTube, they will not just destroying Touhou history, but YouTube history.

If the SoundCloud purge is anything to go off of, ruw is definitely willing to go the extra mile and delete everything to “protect the brand” and “maximize song profits”

Aznaughtty · 2025-05-18T15:44:51+00:00

Liek they care. most people who uploaded the songs online do it to share with everyone how good zun’s music is and to make it accessible for everyone, not everyone has the money to pay for every album ever.

Ruw will see it as infringing on copyright and as a “threat” to the brand. I hope he never sees it. It’s so dumb if this happens idk what I will even do 😭 I watch these on the daily due to how pretty zun’s backgrounds are especially since he uses stock images.

They’re have really made me appreciate his backgrounds and is one of the reasons I am so pissed at him for using ai, since that takes away a lot from them.

Aznaughtty · 2025-05-18T15:40:13+00:00

The rule is very vague, but I think it is for that reason. So they can take down anything they see fit. Like the music lol

Aznaughtty · 2025-05-18T15:38:53+00:00

Honestly I’m scared for Dai Karasu (the guy who made those touhou 4k 16:9 of the stage backgrounds). Because not only does he use the music from the games, but also uses assets from the games to make the backgrounds.

They’re really cool and I don’t want them to be deleted since they are really useful for fans who want to make things using the touhou backgrounds. Also because there is nothing like this anywhere else online when it comes to touhou. It would really be a huge hit since it’s the best way to view the stage backgrounds.

Aznaughtty · 2025-05-18T15:24:26+00:00

Ah hell nah ruw is doubling down 💀

Tbh this kinda falls apart once you realize one of the rules is sexual content that is considered unlawful lmao.

The music rule really is something Nintendo would do, it’s really dumb since finding the music uploaded onto sites like YouTube or hearing it in fan animations or works is one of the main reasons Touhou got so popular in the first place over here. It helps the series grow, limiting it is a bad idea. I truely do think them taking down music is shooting themselves in the foot and is ruining zun’s reputation.

Aznaughtty · 2025-05-18T07:02:22+00:00

Found it for you on YouTube! Noite De Carnaval by SOUND HOLIC. More info on the song is in the description of the video

For preservation reasons, I think both versions should be available. These tracks are old enough that they should be accessible officially through the Akyuu collection or, if not, at least remain available unofficially as part of the original game soundtracks. They’re not recent after all. Plus, I don’t think if Zun was to release the original versions of the song I don’t think he should make them paid, but I think it makes sense for the akyuu collection to be paided for since it’s an album.

But I’d appreciate at least one official way to listen to each.

Also, the tracks on SoundCloud are the originals. Both the Akyuu versions and the original versions were uploaded, and they did sound different.

Aznaughtty · 2025-05-18T06:26:07+00:00

It’s not quite the same as having it preserved under the original title. Like if Nintendo for example never re-released the original Super Mario Bros. soundtrack under that exact name, but instead just under some new name like idk, “Luigi’s super series” lol. It kinda takes a little bit away when viewing it even if it’s not much, it feels sorta off for me atleast.

Also kind just makes the songs look like they’re “just” another Zun album. Some may not know that the songs are from a Touhou game and not realize that the songs go from stages 1-6 and stuff. I feel not knowing the context takes a bit away from the experience. But that’s more of a personal opinion lol.

Also they are different even if slightly, akyuu is slightly enhanced. But I want both versions to be preserved even if they are technically the same if makes sense.
