What is touhou to you?

Just a game?
A world with cute unclaimed girls you can fantasize about?
Something you use for escapism to feel like you are in a world where your dreams come true?
Or perhabs even spiritual guidance?
Maybe just some otaku thing you can obsess over with others in order to have a feeling of belonging to a community?
A delusion you want to believe in with all your might?
Or something entirely different?

It's something to fantasize about, just like WH40K, LotR, or a good sci-fi series (though I'm a bit more attached to Touhou characters than those from other things). It's also a series of games I play when I'm bored so /jp/ doesn't call me a secondary and a whole lot of fan work to spend time looking at, reading, and fapping to. As for believing in it? Well, it's an infinite universe, and when I read a fantasy setting I like to interpret magic as science that isn'understood, so...

To be honest, Touhou is something that helps me escape and everything like that.

Whenever I feel bad, I just think about the daily lives of my favourite characters and the great adventures they surely have or even the daily hijinks that often proceed.

I'm very attached to the characters too, so I guess by them 'having a good day' I'll try to have a good day as well.

It's why I like the setting to be a lot more light and happier than most, I suppose. Some people like their grim dark Touhou.

Galaga with cute girls instead of spaceships and with cool music, also lots of porn. If someone is talking about Touhou, I ask them what their favorite of the games is and if their answer is something along the lines of "I've never played them" then I instantly know that person is probably not worth talking to.

Touhou is supposed to be light and happy, why else would there be all the shit about spellcard rules meaning that no one dies or gets hurt ever? Youkai feeding on humans is another thing that's just kind of swept under the rug not to be thought about too much, because focus on the cute girls instead.

I would enjoy 2hu if it had more written material, and i don't mean manga, but actual text.
Would help with imagining how life there is, as of now, it feels too much like a set of characters, even if they are interacting among each other i have difficulties imagining it in an actual scenario.

When I finished the series, there were no more adventures to go onto, it felt a bit uneasy because the doujin gave me a solid look at Eientei and things, but it just ended too soon. Like finishing a great series.
