We all agree

Speaking of ZUN's naming, just who the hell WAS the silent sinner in blue?

>>10128250
the highly responsible prayer

It's just Japanese way of naming things. Something english that sounds cool but hardly ever makes sense.

>>10128260
They start to make sense after Mystic Square.

>>10128268
Still sounds rather mysterious...

>>10128250
The reader.

>>10128274
Which makes it COOLER! Like character titles and theme music too!

fuck i want that hat

The Japanese are pretty odd with using English in Titles.

I've seen weird porn names that make no sense.
Like "Super Violation of the Galaxy Superstars" or some shit like that, and it's just some random porno.

I wish there was something like a Touhou name generator.

>>10128276
That's too deep for me.

>>10128250
Probably Earth.
Or Humanity
Something metaphorical though.
Get it, like Earth is Blue?

>2deep4u

>>10128289
was it good ?

subterranean fantastic faith

>>10128250

>>10128313
Pretty damn good.
It was one of my favorite porn videos when I was younger and probably my first JAV.

I forget the exact name, but it was close to what I wrote.
A lot of it was shot in first person and had three parts.
First part seemed to be some guy doing paper work in a bedroom with two other women in business suits, and eventually they both come on to him and fuck him.
Second part seemed to be three girls dressed up as air flight attendants or security personal or something and they forcibly strip a guy and then all fuck him at once.
Third part was a whole bunch of women, like six I think, mostly dressed casually, and they all come onto one guy. and take turns with him as the rest all watch and feel up the guy or the girl on him.

It was pretty sweet. But seemed to be completely unrelated to the name.

What's Dim. in Phantasmagoria of Dim. Dream stand for?
I always figured it was Dimensional.
But I thought it was odd for ZUN to abbreviate something in a title.
Maybe there is a second or deeper meaning to it? Like it was a Dim, as in not bright, dream, but also cross-dimensional?

>>10128338
>Touhou Yumejikuu ~ Phantasmagoria of Dim.Dream (東方夢時空　～ Phantasmagoria of Dim.Dream, lit. "Eastern Dimensional Dream")

>>10128338
Dimensional.
The first 5 game's names barely make any sense. Lotus Land Story maybe.

>>10128346
Aren't some of the Japanese names of the modern games different than the English ones?
Like Subterranean Animism is "Touhou Chireiden, meaning Eastern Palace of the Earth Spirits"
That doesn't sound as cool, it's way too direct to the setting.

>>10128346
>>10128348
But why did he write Dim. and not just Dimensional"
Or did Dimensional just not fit?

>>10128377
He didn't know the engurishu

his song also have cool names

gensokyo milenium : history of the moon

it sounds great

Do some people really not get that Highly Responsive to Prayers is a play on the term highly responsive to praise?

Yup, I agree.

Skyrim
Skyfall
Skysky

Where can I buy Zun's hat so I make videogames good.

No. Shitty pretentious names.
Cherry ass homo falling dildo macaroni banana blossom whore diarrhea. Now thats a good name.

>>10128429
or maybe highly responsive to players

>>10128429
I almost felt bad about not recognizing a common phrase, but
>"highly responsive to praise"
>About 56 results (0.29 seconds)
so yeah, no.

Shooting Game of Ghastry Dream

>>10128476
gastritis dream. also "faily wars"

lonely monstar

Eastern Lands of Scarlet Devil ～ 深紅の悪魔の化身 (shinku no akuma no keshin)
Eastern Ghostly Dream ～ 完全なる桜 (kanzennaru sakura)
Eastern Eternal Night Vignette ～ 永久の夜 (towa no yoru)
Eastern Flower Viewing Mound ～ 変幻自在の花景色 (hengen jizai no hanageshiki)
Eastern Wind God Chronicles ～ 信仰の山 (shinkou no yama)

And so on.

... You swapped the english and japanese names? Why?

>>10128583
meant to reply to
>>10128534

>>10128583
Mostly boredom.

The English names come out sounding okay but somehow I don't think the Japanese transliterations have the same charm.

>>10128594
Well duh, the english names were specifically picked to sound good in english, while the japanese names were meant to sound good in japanese.
I'm pretty sure those japanese translations are less elegant than what he could have come up with (Zun's titles are all three-kanji compound words without particles or any bullshit, which means they qualify as poetry as far as I'm concerned.)

>>10128625
I was referring to the "Eastern Foregathering Dream" type English translations, not the official names. Although the ones I pulled off the wiki were probably tarted up to sound better in English to begin with.

Yeah, literal Japanese translations are going to be obviously uglier than the nice names that ZUN chose, but maybe an idiotic name like "Non-Perception of Eastern Natural Law ~ Chase the Enigma of the Superdreadnought Guignol" would end up having its own charm.

He's a step above Nasu when it comes to english

>>10128668
Is he better at alignments too?

>>10128669
Anyone who realizes Choatic Crazy isn't an alignment is better than him.

You just pick certain sounding English words and put them together

>>10128930
start coming up with the list of names and I'll write a 5 line php name generator

>>10128289
that made me lol.

there should be a game dedicated to Rumia like there was to Cirno. He shall call it "Carnivore Wars" and he will introduce 3 new bosses who try to stop her from eating the Mistress.

also, the collectable items will be fried chicken and that will give her power.

>>10128947
Wouldn't we just need a list of words?

Here are some that would fit


white black rhapsody sonata serenade masquerade illusion mystical endless flower eclipse moon phantasmagoria cherry blossom night

Zun does come up with some cool names.

>>10128964
keep the words coming,

>>10128962

just tell me what words you want and I'll add them

the fuck is a topacie

>>10129226
You should add in blanks for words as some titles are just two words or so.

So if a blank comes up, just skip that slot and connect the remaining words.

> garden rhapsody of white eclipse
Much better

>>10129125
It needs to be "Adjective Noun of Adjective Noun".

>>10129226
no no, your pick. maybe add the word "palette" since a lot of your adjectives are colors.

>mountain dancing in white seasons
Someone needs to draw this.

>>10129236
I can do that, although I'm gonna have to research what is an adjective and noun

>>10129226
Please capitalize the words.

i'll think of more.

You should just add every type of classical music composition. Just steal them from Castlevania titles and Zelda ocarina song names.

>>10129275
Definitely remove them.

only thing this needs, is a sprite generator for the final loli

>>10129556

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Index:Uncommon_kanji

These three pages should cover all kanji that you should need.

>>10129562
add the kanji into a long line separated by spaces, then search n replace the space with ``", " '' and then just paste that line inside the variables, and then you're done.

I'm done for now, its been pretty fun making this. I'll definitely be up for the sprite generator if I get something like 20 pieces of hair/face/dresses/silly hat

You should code it to somehow add arbitrary point values to each word/variable so that Marisa's rating actually means something.

This is my attempt at a name generator. I'm new to this programming thing so I can't into fancy GUIs yet.

>>10129736
>.exe
won't even bother to fire up a sandbox for it.

>>10129747
You are hurting my feelings ;_;

>>10129759
you should know that no one will be dumb enough to download an exe from a stranger, well at least a decent amount of people in this board, not so sure about cesspools like /v/ or /b/ or /a/

>>10129765
/b/ definitely would. Remember the colored box spam that made the captchas necessary in the first place? That was people following the directions of a thread telling them to save a bunch of text as a .js and open it to shit brix.

>>10129778
yeah, those colored boxes sure were annoying, but even then I wasn't stupid enough to do what an image told me.

Also, I think there was some sort of virus spread through some game in /v/ not too long ago, I think some faggots came in and started shitposting about it.

>>10129765
Do remember that even "l33t 3v1l h4x0rZ" have a brain. It makes no sense to embed anything malicious into an .exe that'll only be opened by five people on /jp/, when you could post it on /b/ and get three thousand hits in an hour.
I can confirm that the .exe is just a simple toy program that spits out a name for each button press. No viruses, no nothing. And it's better by far than the previous one posted, since it actually makes sense.

>>10129785
The only thing I heard about was someone saying that goofy Sanic game changed his wallpaper to scary ass picture and made a screaming sound or something when he closed out of it and a bunch of people were scared as fuck to play it after that. But I'm fairly certain that was just that guy being a bullshitter.

>>10129788
I am a "l33t 3v1l h4x0r", dweeb. That's why I'm not opening it.

>>10129788
>It makes no sense to embed anything malicious into an .exe that'll only be opened by five people on /jp/
it makes perfect sense if you want to coax those five people into a snafu.
Of course you can get 100 retards from /b/ but that isn't an accomplishment.

>>10129814
Give the guy a break. He's a larval stage programmer who cooked up a toy program for his favorite board, a program that actually gives some entertaining output at that. Shooting him down because he decided to post the "wrong" kind of file is not a proper response when /jp/ desperately needs original content.

who even cares if it is a virus?

I like to infect my computer with viruses and remove them manually. it gives the same feeling as popping pimples.

>>10129832
I do understand that, however, if you let things like this run around, all you're doing is encouraging people to let their guard down because ``its a /jaypee/ program'' which would in turn attract people with more malicious intent who are planning on cashing in on how careless people in here are.

You never know, I mean, someone could be writing a program that will do happy color squares on people who have a jewpass™

Did you guys ever see that /g/ thread where a guy made a virtualbox of windows and put something like 60,000 viruses in the startup folder to see what would happen?

>>10129844
>You never know, I mean, someone could be writing a program that will do happy color squares on people who have a jewpass™

Not a bad idea.

>>10129832
Now he has learned a lesson.

>Multicolor Mansion or Pseudo Mountain

This honestly doesn't sound like a bad tittle for a song.

It sounds like its named after something that resembles a rainbow, but its so far, that you can't tell if its a neverending manor, or a mountain.

>>10129832
If he can already write it in a compiled language it would take him a day to rewrite it in FIOC. Ignoring scripting languages and starting with C/Lisp/whatever is the more ambitious path.

>>10129946
I like to think that writing the name generator is much easier in C than javascript because when you fuck up, at least there'll be a friendly compiler error as opposed to nothing. Also, I'm not a fan of dynamically typed languages, especially if you're learning it as your first language, since they teach bad habits to people once they move on to the big boy languages

>>10129968
>since they teach bad habits to people once they move on to the big boy languages
That's a problem if you're aiming to be a career programmer. I like to think that static typing is one of the simplest new things you'll face when you move on to the big boy languages.

>there'll be a friendly compiler error as opposed to nothing
As painful as this sounds, Python stack traces are a lot clearer than the stuff gcc/clang spits out.

>Illusion Blossom of Flower Night

is this like shoot the bullet but featuring sakuya fiddling with razor sharp flowers perhaps?
ZUN should really get onto this.

I tried googling for the answer and couldn't find it, what is a Topacie?

>>10129125

>>10129788
>I can confirm that the .exe is just a simple toy program that spits out a name for each button press. No viruses, no nothing.

I still won't trust anyone but Derek.

>>10130004
>static typing is one of the simplest new things you'll face

It's simple to learn, but not simple to work around if you want to write something reasonably complex.

Seriously, though, the performance gains from static typing are in many cases worth the acrobatics, but from the standpoint of coding ergonomics, anything but duck typing is outright harmful. This goes for learning, too.
