Okay, so after hearing all the incessant Touhou hype, I downloaded a torrent of most of the games. Played PCB and EoSD, and thought they were pretty fun shooters.

But I still don't get all the other stuff, like the douijins, fan-fic, and the giant image collections. The story itself seemed kind of incoherent, and just a vehicle for SHOOTAN.

TL;DR: Why do YOU like Touhou so much? What brought you into it?

I like it for the giant image collections.

Same reason I like Nanoha.

Did you know that different people like different things?

Its a neat concept.

I like Touhou simply because of Reimu. I fantasize about her being mai waifu.

I like poofy clothes, particularly the victorian-esque look of some of the characters

Also huge image collections, characters with personality, doujins, h-doujins

everything, basically

Saw fanart on /a/. Collected because I'm obsessive about fanart. Tried games. Thought, "Wow, this is some of the most frustratingly impossible shit I've ever tried. AWESOME!" Read doujins.

And then I was well and thoroughly hooked.

Well, I'm not bashing it, or anything. I'm just genuinely curious. I can understand Trekkies, or even Narutofags. This genuinely dumbfounds me.

same here, The clothing is one of them but shoes are another. With victorian styled clothing one other thing always goes with it, Those ugly pointy shoes. Most of the shoes in touhou are rounded, this is makes such a big difference to me.

I like the shootan. I didn't even know it had fanart or a large following until 4chan picked up on it.

>> No.329461

I like it because of the music remixes and doujins

Interesting characters, character costumes, concept of flying, shooting things as a girl, shooting at girls, doujinshi, music, doujin games based off the series, endless spawn of creations based off series, endless fanart of girls on girls on girls on girls on girls

Forgot to mention, music is also awesome. Downloaded a 6gb torrent of it soon after getting the games.

Whats a good h-doujins to check out. The doujins so far have been great, well drawn and entertaining. I tryed some H and they have all been utter shit so far. The drawing, design, clothing, everything about them look nothing like touhou.
