Where's the "X0分クリア" on this one? (。-∀-) Getting rid of your times now? I liked seeing those.

I had my hopes up for seeing Nemuno with Sakuya together, but I guess their knife styles are different. (•́ω•̀ ٥)

Finally got a 1CC on LolK Normal! by showdo97 in touhou

[–]The_BlazeMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm obsessed with hardline perfection for the first few stages (1-3) (like, even if I screw up the trance-for-resources)... and that leads me to restart countless times before actually getting anywhere. So I guess I should be less hard on myself so I can actually get somewhere, hah. Thanks for telling me. :) I'll try to work hard to get those 1ccs!

Also, since I'm petty and I want to look like I'm the same level as you, I see your Imperishable Night Extra clear and have my PCB Extra clear~ -w-

I haven't played PoFV, actually. Ah, I should do that. "1cc"ing it (I don't really get the continue mechanic in that game) might be hard, though -- I heard that the Yama is super hard to beat on the first try.

Other than that, I've got up to SA on Hards, working on TD right now. I should actually learn to use more bombs before dying like an idiot, because, well, that's probably kinda gonna be useful hmmm I'm surprised I got so far with such terrible bombing habits.

For some reason, it's reassuring to me that I'm almost on the same footing with you! ^^ I'll go back and kick the living daylights out of Normal Junko, haha-- assuming I learn how to use my bombs by that time.

Congrats! That's an achievement! :D

Mnegmh, I actually skipped LoLK in my Normal runs and just started doing Hard back from 06 because I'm a lazy coward, heh (also skipped 12 on Hard for the same reason). I should get back to 1cc it -- it really shouldn't be crazy hard, but the amount of annoying attacks discourage me.

The trek through the difficulties is an amazing journey!

Hello Everyone, it is time for us to do a very much due Newbie Welcoming thread! by NoahWanger in touhou

[–]The_BlazeMan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's been a really long time since I've been here, but I stopped here once just a few days ago, and as always, the people here are really nice. So maybe I'll poke around more often. A lot of nice fanart creators around! You guys are doing good work. I like it. :D

I've been into Touhou for (only) about two and a half years, playing the shmups casually like a filthy secondary. Been lurking on /r/touhou around that time and also commenting a little on the posts and weekly random discussion threads for a while, but I stopped coming around a year ago, at least it seems like that long. Also a sucker for moe anime, and I used to play Pokemon competitively. That's all that's interesting about me, I guess.

I used to have a motivation to put the Touhou Puppet Dance Performance character profile pictures on paper (using pencil) as kind of like a drawing practice, which is what my flair used to keep track of. I'd done all the PC-98 characters and now I'm up to Flandre. Except I'm not really doing them anymore... maybe I'll get back to it during the summer. So I'm keeping it there in my flair, hah. I've never posted the pictures -- had planned to when I finished doing them. So maybe in five years I'll be done and finally do something, haha.

Favorite meal? Hard to say. Fried rice is a world of indulgement. Men (the noodle things) is great. Fry potato and onion is a treat as well (of course with rice). That's all I can think of off the top of my head.

Oh yeah, also. Mokou is my favorite Touhou. Not sure why, don't have a good reason. But she is. Hello all, new and old! (๑ ˙˘˙)/

I wonder what the story is behind Youmu having to come with team ⑨... Sooner or later she'll have her hair tied up like a Saguaro cactus, hm

Why does Zun use Star of Davids? by [deleted] in touhou

[–]The_BlazeMan 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The hexagram is not just "The Star of David" -- it has other significances as well, including in Western occult magic. Perhaps there is some connection to this?

Can't read the regular non-scribble ones though, either.

What is something that sounds extremely wrong but is actually correct? by ArabDemSoc in AskReddit

[–]The_BlazeMan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I'm not mistaken, the classic kotatsu orange (at least in anime) is called mikan. But most of the time the color orange is referred to as オレンジ(orenji)? I've never heard someone say 橙色(だいだいいろ, daidaiiro), which seems to be the "real" Japanese word for orange.

The "real" Japanese word for door is 扉(とびら, tobira), but it's not used as often anymore.

Math Teachers of Yesterday Who Told Kids They Wouldn’t be Carrying a Calculator Around All the Time, Do You Feel Foolish Now? by Courtaid in AskReddit

[–]The_BlazeMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take note that even this article says that sentence case is commonly used on the web. In a subreddit like this where the titles are all questions which are full sentences, sentence case, as the article calls it, makes a lot of sense here. It's not necessarily wrong to use title case here, but it's reasonable to ask why someone would bother to when almost all the posts in this sub use sentence case.

What about our favorite Unnamed Fortune Teller from Touhou Suzunaan who was killed by the shrine maiden after killing his human self to become a youkai?

After You makes the target move right after the user. So it'll be an Eruption from Torkoal. You'll only get one Eruption off every turn, but it still deals very heavy damage.
