I thought it was fairly amusing. Of course he made some of the same mistakes that many people do when describing touhou, such as calling all the characters little girls when a fair share of them are leaning towards the healthy side, at least in fanworks, and as someone else pointed out, almost all of the characters are far older than they look.

Though we may disagree with elements of the article, it does a reasonable job in presenting a outsiders view of the Touhou series. Most people who look at it will notice the characters all look like little girls, it's the first criticism a outside gives when presented with it.

I've heard 'little girl shooting game' thrown about a few times. It's not entirely wrong.

They are little girls. Cuteness in japan means looking young and cuteness in anime means looking like a little girl. So what if you say she's really 40, she's still a little girl in appearance.

If you saw a real life 25 year old who was 4'10, flat chested, and like 85 pounds, you wouldn't think "Wow she's built like a tiny-yet-full-grown adult."

>> No.3164473

Skipping the pseudo-witty commentary, the article is relatively accurate. Touhou displays very many cult-like characteristics. The article even causes rage to angry fans, as any other article on Star Wars would.

Still, the fact that Wriggle isn't in the article at all is unforgivable...

Actually they're not little girls, they're drawings. In moe there are loli characters and non-loli characters and people who are used to moe will describe certain characters as looking like little girls and others as not, but to someone who's not used to that style of art all the characters look like little girls.

They're meant to look like little girls regardless of what their age is said to be, period. You've just been brainwashed into understanding certain characteristics used to distinguish age in characters, but the fact is, at the end of the day, they all appear to be little girls.

It's sort of how you think Reimu's outfit looks anything like a miko uniform or that Marisa looks like a witch and not a maid.

"Nobody has heard of it"
"It's really hard"

Ever notice whenever you watch a youtube video for a hard game, hear about an upcoming retro game or, against your better judgement, read an article on tvtropes about anything there is always some fucktard writing exactly this? I just wonder if they will ever realise. You watch videos of motherfucking Hibachi, a boss only one person has killed without dying, and there's always a handful of fucking touhou secondary fans in there saying "if you think that's hard you should check out this game call touhous, only me and 2 guys know about it." Jesus fuck, the game had a two page spread in PC Gamer. Stop the secret club bullshit.
