shes an elf mermaid

>>10944516
It is a mermaid

She doesn't have a hat!!!!1

>>10944528
>You must give your loli a hat, or some other head accessory. Without this, your loli will die.

She's cute.
When I first saw her, she instantly become my favorite.

She is actually two mermaids.

rugyujou confirmed

>>10944539
In Japanese folklore, Ryūgū-jō is the undersea palace of Ryūjin, the dragon god of the sea. Depending on the version of the legend, it is built from red and white coral, or from solid crystal. The inhabitants of the palace were Ryūjin's families and servants, which were various denizens of the sea. In some legend, on each of the four sides of the palace is a different season, and one day within the palace is equal to a century outside its boundaries. The most famous legend about the palace concerns Urashima Tarō's visit to Ryūgū-jō for three days

Way to rip off Marine Benefit, you shallow hack.

"The rule of youkai is about to begin!"

I bet it's a rebellion against Toyosatomimi no Miko.

>>10944560
I BET BYAKUREN IS BEHIND THIS!

>>10944550
Yeah ZUN as Touhou developer is supposed to monitor the web if there are ay Touhou shooting games by fans, and then refrain from using their ideas.

Help. What do I do?

>>10944581
Remove any Japanese text from the folder name.

>>10944581
wait windows to check for a solution for the problem

Why can't Zun draw Sakuya well?

>>10944593
Oh wow that actually worked. Thanks.

>>10944567
Yes, he should. Just how if there was already a shrine maiden character called Reimu from a different series, he probably shouldn't do the same thing.

Fans are creators just as much as ZUN is, and ZUN is now stealing their ideas. I hope he at least gives them a cut of the profits or something.

>>10944569
>she sees your dick

>>10944606
because she is supposed to not being cute

sekibanki is a yukkuri

Anyone else crashing at random points in Stage 2 when using SakuyaA?

This is extremely disappointing.

>>10944723
Yep. Crashed right before the boss.

>>10944608
there are no ideas worth stealing and there will never be an ocean in gensokyo

>>10944735

Damn it. I'm really enjoying SakuyaA's knife volleys over SakuyaB's simple straight shot, and I'm not going to waste my time trying to play the inferior Touhous.

Hopefully there'll be a patch or fix or something soon.

>>10944608
Derivative work is not creation. If you make something based on ZUN's work, he has every right to copy it because he is ... (wait for it) ... the COPYRIGHT HOLDER!

He owns the copyright. That means he has the right to copy his own work, even if some dumbass kid on the internet made derivatives of it without getting the proper licensing rights.

That's how it works. Deal with it.

I like the wolf girl more.

Looks like that super fast and rushed translation patch that was supposed to be out right after demo release isn't so fast after all.

>>10944823
"feels" have no place in law
thinking you have the right to something doesn't make it true

though amusing you'd use a youtube video since youtube is a place that routinely deletes anything even remotely close to being copyright violation.

>>10944528
ears

>>10944830
Well, you guys told them you didn't want it, didn't you? Maybe they listened to your advice

there is no sea in gensokyo

where is he gonna live

>>10944975

Misty Lake she's a freshwater mermaid.

No really.

>>10944983
I wonder if she travels up the streams to the water source on youkai mountain. Just thinking about it gets me all fired up. Gensoukyou is such a wonderful place.

>>10944608
I don’t see the big deal. Fans create content with his IP and he doesn’t get a cut either.
This is how the wonderful Touhou creative fandom works.

>>10944870
"Copyright" has no place in law.

>>10944705

>>10944993
She and Nitori will become best pals. And have hot kappa--on-mermaid action.

>>10945062
Well, I can easily imagine them playing together in the water. Or she performs her songs for the kappa as entertainment at their parties.

>>10944516
where do i download the demo?

>>10945087
>>10944995
or Nyaa

>>10944830
Meanwhile, the wiki already has a translation. Quality is as abysmal as expected of them, but that probably wasn't the point. They must have been in a rush to make a statement, and it looks like they did win this round.

>>10945101
thanks

I just finished playing this game.

It is super easy! on normal mode.
it was a little bit easy on hard mode.
Lunatic mode feels like easy mode of The Last Comer

Just finished reading the translation on touhouwiki.
Why is MarisaA such a jerk compared to MarisaB? Cursed weapons clearly affect the wielder. Calling it now: stage 4 or 5 will be similar to stage 4 of IN: ReimuA is going to fight MarisaB, MarisaA - SakuyaB, SanaeA - ReimuB. And vice versa for *B characters.

>>10945200
>Just finished reading the translation on touhouwiki.

I just found the translation on the patch guys' site.

Think what you will of their faggotry, they seem competent. Especially compared to the idiocy of the wiki. Go there if you want to know what's actually been said.

Shit, I'm getting horrible restartitis now that I have a basic idea on how to score.

>>10945200
>>10945224
To me, Marisa and Reimu's arc is better translated in the jerk guy's site.
While Sakuya in the wiki is better, but it's still awful, I don't understand that rusty knife thing.

>>10945200
I'm hoping for them to fight their own weapons, who have by now accumulated enough energy to take on loli forms and rebel against their masters.

But yes, MarisaA seems to be about two bosses away from becoming a Khornate cultist.

>>10945231
>restartitis
fuck, i have this too, a chronic case
i hate it

>>10944870
The video is only showing that a lot of diferent past cultures made a lot of very similar art works (a fact), it isn't talking about any "feel". And laws are subject to intrepretations, thats the reason lawers and judges exist.

But, anyways, ZUN works are copies as the video sugests.

>>10944723
stage 2 in general is fubared, should be a patch soon I hope.

>>10945240
>Sakuya in the wiki is better

I actually only compared parts of Sakuya's arc. Wiki has hilarious stuff like "a half mermaid" and "Babel made of sand", you couldn't make it up if you tried. It's ridiculous how bad it is. The faggots have Sakuya speaking in that retarded pretentious manner, but at least they have her speaking roughly what she actually says.

Anyone else get framerate problems? My fps stays around 40. My computer is more than capable of handling it, so I don't know what the problem is.

>>10945200
>SanaeA
You wish

>>10945364
Yes, thanks to that I was able to beat this game in Lunatic on my first try.

>>10945200
Would explain her dark spark.

>>10945364
My fps drops sometimes. I'm not sure what the cause is. When it runs fine it's all good but the moment it drops at the beginning of stage 1 it won't work for a while

>mermaids

>>10945364
Change the resolution to 640x480, it works for me.

And is anyone else finding Sakuya easily the strongest character in the game? I played as Reimu first then Sakuya and the game felt like a breeze with Sakuya.

>>10945364
The human eye and its brain interface can only process 10-12 images per second. There's no point in pushing framerate above 12 fps because you can't tell the difference.

>>10945449
Is this a joke because the difference between 12 fps and 60 fps are definitely noticeable

>>10945457
Did you just take that post seriously? I hope you didn't.

>>10945436
I only tried Sakuya A and her homing knifes deal way more damage than one might think. Their explosion at max power if also as big as the bosses themself. Pretty overpowered so far.

>>10945436
Also feels like the weapon-less shots do more damage than the weapon type.

>>10945457
http://books.google.com/books?id=jzbUUL0xJAEC&pg=PA24#v=onepage&q&f=false

>>10945459
I wonder if it's a bug like Marisa in MoF because her homing knives do way too much damage IMO.

>>10945464
It's not a troll. It's real. Scientific research shows it.

>>10945474
>>10945468
>it has been found that the human sense of sight can distinguish up to 48 flashes of light per second

>>10945495
Flash of light and image are not the same thing

>>10945499
hurrrr
how do you think we can distinguish colors you scientific genius?
I hate it when people link scientific papers without having basic knowledges first.

Am I just a baby, or is this one a lot harder than Ten Desires? Been trying for a couple hours and I can't 1CC the first three stages on hard.

Holy fuck the translation patch tool they give here http://thpatch.net/wiki/Touhou_Patch_Center:Download is fucking abysmal to use. Nothing fucking works.

>>10945514
Normal mode babby here, yeah it's a lot harder than TD. For me TD started to get a little challenging like at Seiga's second to last spell hard but Kagerou was way harder.

>>10945516
Worked for me.
Download it, launch thcrap_configure.exe, press 5 (English patch), press enter, type in path to your touhou folder, press enter, press y when it finds the game. Then it creates link to th14.exe which you should use to launch the game.
Or just refer to touhouwiki.

>>10945514
TD was among the easiest Touhou games in general. It would have been quite something if the cards in this game were actually easier. In the end it will probably also be easy to clear though because the game just keeps throwing bombs and lives at you.

>>10945542
I did all that, but the .exe just starts the game in japanese anyway. Or more like, when I start it, the black box appears and goes EVERYTHING IS OKAY, and still goes in japanese.

NO, this is NOT cool

why a wolf? we have Momoji

why a dulahan? we have Kogasa or Yoshika hell even Yuyuko and Youmou

Mermaid? we have Nitori

And ZUN didn't even go out of his way to make the characters really unique either

Collecting items at batches gives you bomb pieces, but what gives life?

>>10945559
From Touhouwiki: "Specifically, a life fragment will drop if the maximum multiplier is attained [60+ items], or else on every fifth bonus during a stage; otherwise, a bomb fragment is dropped. "

>>10945558
>we have Momoji

Momoji is a midboss with no dialogue, stop acting like she's a full fledged character

>>10945565
Who is Momoji?
Also, Aya talks about her in DS.

>>10945558
Why do you exist?
We have another [insert your name here] in this world.

Also:
Werewolf =/= Wolf Tengu
Rokurokubi =/= Karakasa, Zombie, etc, what the hell they're not even similar
Mermaid =/= Kappa

I knew the music would be a disappointment

>>10945549
It creates a shortcut in the folder where the tool is.

Also only dialogue is translated anyway.

Reimu A focus shot is incredibly annoying

>>10945558
Why Orin? Another cat? We have Chen.
Why Okuu? Another bird? We have 2 birds already - Aya and Mystia
And as we can see now, second cat turned out to be better than the first one. Third bird turned out to be better than 2 previous birds.
Touhou is not about "type" of the youkai, it's about design/personality/abilities/gimmick.

>>10945590
Really? The music is some of my favorite for a newer Touhou game.

>>10944983
>she's a freshwater mermaid

wat

>>10945590
I like the music. With the exception of that stage 1 boss theme which does not fit at all.

>>10945593
Also really strong. Cleared it again with 4 lives remaining (I died twice). I tried Reimu B, aka classic flavor, and got my shit pushed in.

what was the thing about weapons being stolen?

>>10945611
Yeah, Reimu B is hot garbage. That sucks because she's usually who I play as,

Is there anyway to stop the games from disabling Aero?

Sometimes it takes hell long for it to finish

>>10945558
>why a wolf? we have Momoji
Why Utsuho when we have Aya?
>why a dulahan? we have Kogasa or Yoshika hell even Yuyuko and Youmou
Why not a dulahan? What do Kogasa, Yoshika, Yuyuko and Youmu have to do with dullahan?

What is your problem, seriously? Are you retarded?

>>10945558

>why a wolf? we have Momoji

Kagerou is a werewolf, Momiji is a white wolf tengu. For starters, Momiji was never a human, and Kagerou is only an animal on the full moon. A better comparison would be made with Keine, who is also a werecreature, albeit of something far different than a wolf.

>why a dulahan? we have Kogasa or Yoshika hell even Yuyuko and Youmou

Kogasa is a karakasa. Yoshika is a jiang-shi. Neither are related to Dullahans.
Kogasa is a spirit inhabiting an umbrella, and Yoshika is a corpse revived by magic. Dullahan are fae from the Unseelie court who ride at night and mark those who are soon to die.

>Mermaid? we have Nitori

Kappa are hostile river monsters. Mermaids aren't.


All three new Touhous are the freshest thing since vampires.

>>10945590
the start of the stage 3 boss theme reminds me of flandres theme, am i the only one to hear it?

>>10945596
Well shit, you are right. I just kept quitting when the character menu wasnt in english.

Have to wait for proper patch then.

>>10945594

I was with you until

>second cat turned out to be better than the first one

>Third bird turned out to be better than 2 previous birds.

The fact that you even like SA shows how secondary you areget away from me pleb

>>10945629
Stage 1 sounds like a remix of Bad Apple too.

>>10945589

I don't know why ZUN called her a Rokurokubi in her profile and a Dullahan in her theme.

She doesn't even have a neck.

>>10945637
Amazing rusing, SA is widely considered the best Touhou game.

>>10945636
I'd think the trial version doesn't really warrant a full patch, so see ya in August.

>>10945629
It sounds more like Nue's theme to me.

Also, the title screen theme is really nice.

>>10945629
I thought it sounded more like Nues... but then again Nue's sounds like Flandres.

>>10945649
Looks at the danmaku the head creates.
Also she's a mix of both.

>>10945683
>Looks at the danmaku the head creates.
jesus fuck why didnt i notice that

>>10945629
>>10945639
Both of these. I keep thinking stage 1 will continue in the bad apple rhythm.

So when does Wakasagihime join Mystia's band?

It'll be all my favorites in one place!

>>10945683
>she's a mix of both
More likely ZUN just doesn't know the difference

>>10945717
Except the closest to a Dullahan is obviously not Rokurokubi but Nukekubi.

Holy HELL the game crashed hard on stage 2.

>Marisa
>Do you know her?
>Kagerou
>Somewhat. Through Youkai Grassroots Network.
What the hell is that? Is it some social network (gensokyo facebook)? I don't think I remember anything like that from any other games or SoPM/PMiSS.

>>10945760
It's literally "grassroots youkai network." Whether it should actually be capitalized is anyone's guess.

>>10945760
probably just a bad translation

I love how the game crashes when you try to use the best character in the game, it's like ZUN is forcing you to use shitty Reimu and Marisa instead of OP as fuck Sakuya.

>>10945760
Networks doesn't need to be digital

>>10945760
>Is it some social network (gensokyo facebook)?

Likely. I searched a bit, and I'm pretty sure it's referring, or at least alluding to this: http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/草の根BBS.

The context fits like a glove. A youkai bulletin board. They're online friends. Incredible.

>>10945637
Only secondaries like Chen, such as you

>>10944759
>He owns the copyright.

Didn't some random guy buy the copyrights to the names "Touhou Project" and "Team Shanghai Alice" (in Japanese)?

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2012-07-04/touhou-project-linked-trademarks-upheld-for-non-creator

>>10949468
First of all, copyright is not trademark. Read them words. Copyright - right to copy. Trademark - a marking on an object of trade.

Second of all, the guy only managed to register a trademark on a few variant spellings of "Touhou project" that ZUN never used. This does not concern whatever ZUN releases because he can just continue not using them like he always did. The only problem would be if that guy started selling something with "Touhou Project" on the cover, cheating people into believing it's ZUN-approved.

Her theme is pretty metal

>>10949651

I can see her being paired up with Choujuu Gigaku just because of her theme.

Best DDC


>>10945947
I cleared the game with Marisa A, and I was going to use Sakuya A now, but it seems I'll have to wait.

Her timeout bomb thing is really unbalanced.


>>10945181
No legs and see how much sexualized she is. A similar fate awaits Wakasagihime.


>>10945590
I found them great.

Stage 1 will make for nice folk/acoustic arranges, and the 2nd boss theme reminds me of RockMan series.
