I got here through one of the Flandre routes (not Ronald McDonald thank god), then slowly became more familiar with things as I poked around YouTube for music. Found Nitori Kappashiro's previous channel and got a healthy expansion to my music folder from that and other similar channels. Eventually I got EoSD, and I'm still not fantastic but I generally don't embarrass myself. Ended up 1cc'ing hard with Marisa before I even beat normal with Reimu. I started looking around the wiki not long after I got that first game and went through pretty much all of the doujins they had on there (the official stuff too, but it doesn't have quite the same character), and now I have a folder of those in addition to my new music. Good stuff.

Touhou at its core is simple but inspired enough to make it attractive, and the community has filled it out a lot with things that most fans take for granted (like Koakuma being a character instead of just a sprite that shows up once in the entire series to shoot at you for a few seconds). Of course, so many of these things not being canon means you can largely make of the lore what you like and work out whatever kind of headcanon appeals to you.

If anything bums me out, it would be the porn. Touhou doesn't sell itself on teasing fan's dicks with character designs (have you seen ZUN try to draw) or splashes of fan service in the games and stories because it really doesn't need to. However, this does always make it funny when doujin artists try to sexualize characters and have to throw pretty much everything about their identity/powers out the window so the story doesn't end in faceless man murder. I remember seeing one where some random found Remilia beaten up and muddy outside Gensokyo, so he took her in, then one night she walks in on him fapping and pretty much says "oh lemme help you out with that".
