/jp/ - Otaku Culture

>>22242349
Thank fucking god

Aw. That'd be pretty cool, honestly.

>>22242361
>>22242369
That said, he wants her in

I constantly see Hiro drinking with ZUN. Honestly not a bad way how to spend 4chan dosh but still.

>>22242349
Don't you think it's awfully suspicious of him to suddenly bring up Touhou in Smash?

>>22242349
This is a retarded thread, ZUN said he'd like to see Touhou in Smash. You do realize that there are a more DLC fighters after the current pack that they haven't even started working on yet, right?

Some day we're gonna learn not to bother with predicting or speculating and just realize that Sakurai essentially just picks whoever the fuck he wants.

That being said, add Reimu by all means.

kuso /v/ thread but I want to say stuff because I like smash

1.Reimu in smash would be dumb anyway but really nice especially with music
2.Ironic weebs would latch onto the series
3.smashbabbus make more shitty porn

You expect me to use google here, translate it weebs.

>>22242442
isn't it an interview? Not really suspicious that the case

>>22242494
This, i don't want /v/fags in my jaypee again

Considering Sans got into Smash, anything goes at this point. All ZUN needs to do is visit Sakurai's house and beat him in Smash.

>>22242442
its as suspicious as the time Cuphead's devs brought it up

>>22242532
I dunno if ZUN can beat Sakurai in Smash, but he has an easy win in PoFV.

>>22242494
>Ironic weebs would latch onto the series
They already do.

>smashbabbus make more shitty porn
Oh man this board would love it, since it's the only thing it cares about.

>>22242565
i should say more ironic weebs and I do agree that there is too much porn discussion here instead of actual shit I would prefer (lore)

This might very well be the most heretical comment I've seen.

>>22242567
>Seriously just stop jacking off for a fucking moment
jack me off instead

>>22242567
You don't know how bad the shift from ~2008 (early /jp/, minus the first few weeks which were raids only) to ~2010 was.
We went from "Do we know the limits of Yukari's gap powers?/Do we know if [location] is close to [other location]?" to "Which 2hu wud u fug?".
I don't even know why I keep checking here, because /jp/ is clearly " Idol and JAV General" and I have no idea why we don't have a /jpg/ board yet.

>>22242499
>ZUN: In addition, I would like characters from Touhou to appear in other games so Touhou can become more recognized. Naturally, I want them to appear in Smash Bros. (laughs) But that's something that I can't make happen by just thinking about it.

22242579

>>22242567
>Seriously just stop jacking off for a fucking moment
Only if you agree to become my gf(male).

>>22242494
what the fuck is an ironic weeb?

>>22242349
Really my only issue with Reimu being in Smash anyway is the fact that the Smash fanbase is so fucking toxic. I have a friend who literally wouldn't stop complaining about the the Sans mii costume for weeks.
My only other concern would be Touhou being properly represented by thankfully Sakurai is a huge autist when it come to making sure 3rd party characters are represented as they should be.

>>22242349
If only she wasn't in Touhou too

>>22242739
Check Twitter it’s basically anyone who claims to like anime/manga but does absolutely fuck all

>>22242834
>but does absolutely fuck all
What did he mean by this?

>>22242739
ironic weebs are people who laught at anime "memes" (my waifu!. oniichan!, sugoi!), watched mainstream anime like naruto, thinks any drawing with big eyes is "an anime", haven't touched a manga in its life... its simply not their hobby and they act like they think a "weeb" would act.

>>22242705
hmm this doesn't sound like a deconfirmation, in fact I think it means the oposite, untill now we didn't knew that ZUN wanted for Reimu to be in Smash. We now know that at least one of the parites wants Reimu in smash.

so having your character in actual videogame is bad but making skinner box that guilt trips you into spending money with your characters is good ?

>>22242977
1. Smash isn't a videogame, is a onions factory
2. Gachas are just as cancer
3. 4shill is also a cancer Skinner Box, but with a set of social stimulus

>>22242739
2007: I'm such a nerd xD
2017: I'm such a weeb xD

>>22242845
>>22242834
I've done fuck all and I've been on /jp/ for at least a decade at this point.

It's a label for those who are both open and casual about anime/otaku interests. It also implies the person might actually have a social life and the ability to relate with people outside of otaku tangents.

>>22242349
He said he wants her in Smash, but he doesn't think it'll happen.

Like, what. Do you think no one here can read Japanese?

Fuck you /jp/. I want Reimu in Smash.

>>22242494
/jp/ has been getting attention from shitboards and shit people from shit sites for the past several years so I really don't care about maintaining the 'purity' of this board now, so basically what I'm saying is fuck you and add Reimu to smash.

>>22242579
Shut the fuck up you grentexting retard, all these things have already been happening for years.

>>22243106
> It's a label for those who are both open and casual about anime/otaku interests. It also implies the person might actually have a social life and the ability to relate with people outside of otaku tangents.
get out

>>22243441
Do you actually have a refutation for my point?
There's a reason why people willingly adopt the label "weeb," and it is because it is not perceived in an entirely negative light. It's a way to be comfortable with one's interests (as shallow as they may) and own them.

If you just don't want to hear that, that's a problem on your end.

>>22243473
its clear you actually don't know what the word weeb means because nobody puts it in a positive light
if they wanted to call themselves ironic otaku it would make more sense according to your definition but a weeb/weaboo is literally someone who obsesses over japan to the extreme
please go back to tweddit dot gov

>>22243122
The exact context of the statement's hard to read just on its own with no other parts of the interview, at least for my dumb-ass, but its closer to what this anon is saying than OP is saying. It's not really a yes or a no answer to will reimu be in smash but closer to "i'd like to see touhou get bigger and work with others but well, i'd like for it to happen but that's not exactly my choice or something that'll happen just for me wishing for it".
Seems like one of those if they come to him, he's not going to say no but that's about as much as you can get from it.

>>22242739
"I like anime, but only IRONICALLY XD" people

>>22243497
Whoa, deja vu. I still remember how people like you would get really mad when someone used the word "otaku", and would screech "BUT DONT YOU KNOW THAT OTAKU IS AN INSULT IN JAPAN, STOP USING THIS AS JUST A SYNONYM FOR ANIME FAN"

>>22243678
/jp/ is not one person retard

>>22242349
I don't care if she did get into smash. What I care is how she did. If she got in through the influence of that Toby Fox guy, ZUN will be forced to make some sort of cameo in one of his future games effectively ruining Touhou.

>>22243725
>ZUN will be forced to make some sort of cameo
Yeah, just like he was forced to make a Graffiti Kingdom or Seihou reference. Fucking retard.

>>22242349
If ZUN wants her in I won't exactly cry foul if there's a offer handed to him, but it's a extremely low chance due to it's status as a Doujin game + the fact only some fangames got released on Switch.
That and I don't see him beating Sakurai in Smash like Toby Fox did.

Otherwise though, I'll still call the ones who want her to be in Smash a bunch of faggots and retards simply because they kind of are.

>>22242567
If you want to discuss lore, why not make a thread about it?

>>22243712
Actually I am.
If I wait a moment, my alternate personality will quickly rebuke me.

>>22243777
Nintendo knows Touhou is popular
They even went to a Reitaisai

Holy based. REDDITMUFAGS GONNA SEETHE!

NEVER EVER

>>22242442
No? Smash is the biggest game there is right now.

>>22242349
>In addition, I would like characters from Touhou to appear in other games so Touhou can become more recognized. Naturally, I want them to appear in Smash Bros. (laughs) But that's something that I can't make happen by just thinking about it.

>>22242465
Keep coping. If someone says they want their character in smash, that does not automatically mean they will be added.

By your logic, Tracer and Cuphead will happen too.

>>22243777
Isn't AoCF on Switch? Spin-off I know but it's still something

The statement really doesn't confirm or deny that Reimu will be in smash. I honestly don't care if shes in it or not since I don't play the game but its too soon to say.

Although I doubt nintendo would bother adding a super otaku niche character even though Zun is basically face of indie games in japan.

>>22244591
Why bring up Smash to begin with?

>>22244611
do you know what thread you're in?

>>22244591
>super otaku niche
lul

>>22244611
Probably because now it's seen as a sign of a character/franchise being super significant due to the primary focus on 3rd parties in its DLC list

>>22244580
Well shit. Didn't realize it was out there as well.
I honestly hope it doesn't happen though.

yep now its a /v/ tier thread.

>>22244514

>>22244622
Majority of smash players didnt even know who terry bogard was, do you seriously expect them to know who some little girl from a japanese only indie series is going to be?

>>22244723
What a silly comparison.
Touhou is very popular in Japan.
And in the West, anyone who is a weeb or merely interested in Japanese stuff knows as well.
In the end, popularity has never mattered for Sakurai.

>>22242739
Think about your favorite anime, Japanese game, etc. One you love more than anything else.
Then you see someone on twitter post a "deep fried" meme of a character from it dabbing with big meme text or a trans flag. That's an ironic weeb.

>>22244745
>And in the West, anyone who is a weeb or merely interested in Japanese stuff knows as well
Give me your time machine man. I want to go back into 2009 too.

>>22244523
Wrong, its fortnite or something else thats beloved by China.

>>22242579
Who the fuck are you quoting?

>>22245102
Fortnite? Nope. It's overwatch. But now Blizzard fucked up.

>>22243777
There's not really any raw logic in what Sakurai is picking so I think the speculation game for Ultimate is laughable. It'll happen or it won't happen and in either case there won't really be a reason.

>>22243777
>If ZUN wants her in
>I'll still call the ones who want her to be in Smash a bunch of faggots and retards simply because they kind of are
Rude, anon.

>>22245124

>>22242494
/jp/ is already full of secondaries who've never beaten any of the games but only come here to masturbate to the characters.

>>22245133
I just searched around and I wouldn't have thought that Overwatch sold over 40 million times worldwide, it's such a shitty game. Apparently the player numbers are dropping though.

The biggest games in china are shitty mobile League of Legends/Minecraft clones and PUBG all with ridiculous player numbers. The LoL clone had over 80million people playing daily in 2017.

>>22245181
Why would they come here if /jp/ SFW.

>>22244627
This is basically an urban legend at this point
This spawned from a 2017-2018 random interview where tasofro basiically said shit like " uuh we'd like to work on a ps4 port and eventually a switch port ", i'm not sure anything else from this interview was translated at all. Seriously look it up, you'll find that hopes for AoCF on switch are based on almost nothing.

>>22247643
LOL have a bump

>>22248066
Pretty sure back in like May or June they did actually confirm that they are working on a PS4 port and eventually a Switch port. So it actually is happening but its not like it means a whole lot. Its merely coming to consoles which isnt that surprising given that ZUN has said that major decisions for Tasofro's games (such as ports and translations) would be entirely up to them. This doesnt elevate Reimu's chances to get in Smash in the slightest since the old requirements for a character getting in were tossed anyway.

>>22248330
i'd love it if you were right but i can't help but feel that every informations about this are very hazy and unsure. I don't trust tasofro at all. Time will tell I guess.

>>22248357
>>22248330
???
Nintendo Direct had AoCF on it not long ago.

>>22248451
Really ? I have missed that, can I have a link ?

man this thread fucking sucks

>>22245181
I hate that you're right.

>>22242349
Why would they ever add any TouHou to Smash? it doesn't make sense since more of the DLC characters have added to coincide with some other games upcoming or just release.

>>22242758
Not necessarily, unfortunately. Mega Man has a rich and varied history with many interesting locales and music to pool from, but a good 90% of MM content in Smash comes from just the classic series, and half of that comes from the second game alone. Considering how EoSD's synonimity with Touhou rivals and arguably beats MM2's with the Mega Man series as a whole, I fear that Touhou will fall to similarly disproportionate representation in Smash.

>>22248458
The only thing I could find was a single fanmade video, which predates any news about the Switch port by a year and is confirmed fake by the creator. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOuEsoCRtxs
Still, Tasofro indeed would like to port the game to the Switch, planned sometime after the PlayStation port. Several news outlet report this video as a source for this statement, although I do not have the time stamp nor a translation of what exactly was said. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4llsZoSJPyE

>>22242640
I've been here since day one and as a cumbrain secondary /jp/ has never been better. I wish we'd had "which 2hu wud u pay for sex" threads back then.

Reimu won't be in Smash. Now get the fuck out. I don't want ironic weebs and shitty normies going yuck yuck yuck le anime waifu in Smash lmao so kawaiiiiiii

So where is the thread about the ACTUAL interview?

>>22248670
Too bad you have to wade through 20 generals to find any other threads.

>>22248987
I just browse the catalog and maybe search for my fave 2hu's name. It's always easy to find a thread to hookerpost in.

why some of u complain so much? i thought jp was about taking it easy

>>22251697
This is me taking it easy

>>22242349
>Reimu turns out to not be in smash
>It's Cirno/Marisa for bigger international appeal

>>22242579
reminder the only people who want Reimu unironically are 95% a mix of newfags and secondaries

>>22253087
says the guy who replied to a greentext essay lol

this makes everything worth it though, watching fatefags get assblasted would totally make /jp/'s collective day,

>>22242579
Whomst are you quote?

>>22253792
Doesn’t Kancolle have one?

Now correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the quote in OP basically him say
>Later on, I'd like the characters of "Touhou" to be in various games, and I want "Touhou" to become famous. So, I want them to be in "SmashBros" (kek).
>However I don't really think that's very likely.

He's not saying it won't happen, he's being "japanese" and indirectly saying he likes the idea while also pretending to be self-deprecating and humble. Honne and tatemae are real.

>>22242579
>>GAME THEORY - THE TRUTH BEHIND HAKUREI SHRINE
This is where it got too real. I thought I wanted Reimu in, but the fact that quote related isn't outside the realm of possibility makes me die inside.

>>22245181
/jp/ was always full of secondaries. In fact, I'd say it has more people who appreciate what ZUN makes now than it had 10 years ago. Back then a lot of people on /jp/ admitted they were only in it for the flash animations and memes. These days people at least have the decency not to admit it, which is an improvement.

>>22254022
I, for one, am here for 2hu arranges.

>>22254022
yeah but has anyone ever clearly defined what a secondary even is yet? I feel like 90% of the people here just throw it around like how Twitter throws around incel.

>>22253840
Fate losing its trend chasing artists would almost make it all worth it, but I'm not sure a deluge of their soulless art would be an improvement for us.

>>22254055
If you've 1cc'd at least one touhou game, then you're not a secondary. Fighting games don't count.

>>22254055
If you consume official works you are not a secondary, simple as

>>22254022
>Back then a lot of people on /jp/ admitted they were only in it for the flash animations and memes.
Yes. This is exactly why I've been fapping to 2hus and listening to arranges for over a decade now. IOSYS was the fucking best. Still haven't even tried a 2hu game lol

>>22254067
>official works
Nice try. Videogames or bust.

>>22254118
>Nice try.
He's right though, that's what "primary" literally means.

>>22254163
Yeah, I totally dig that "actually, you don't need play video games, just read some manga and you're good xD" attitude. No thanks.

>>22254170
There's really no need to read the mangas either, just fap to the doujins and you're good.

>>22254191
Very subtle. Doesn't change the fact that the original definition was and is get at least one normal 1cc.

>>22254204
>normal
No. You're a secondary if you can't LNN.

>>22242579
wayq?

>>22254055
Anyone I don't like is a secondary, duh.

>>22254217
Honestly touhou is such a massive multi-platform media product that if you're still playing the games you're the secondary. The other products have long since overtaken the games as the most important part.

>>22253087
the other 5% are in it for the armpit

>>22254232
>as the most important part
Of what exactly? It is still only the games that are producing new content. The other products are still nothing but a supplementary materials for them. There's literally zero point of reading them if don't know stuff or characters from the games.

>>22242983
that's okay anon. Hope you get friends so you can actually realize smash is an extremely fun game

Okay but like....
That interview was in March, they only just posted it.

So she could be in running for the second batch.

>>22254055
>yeah but has anyone ever clearly defined what a secondary even is yet?
I have my own definition which I use because it adds up to how other fanbases are structured like.

Basically, any fanbase of anything can be divided into three major groups: fans, casuals and posers. Beyond that you have outsiders which are people who do not consider themselves part of the circle. The following can be applied to anything: vidya, sports, anime, music, etc.

Fans are those who dig into the hobby, going past the entry level and consuming the source material. They do not need outside influence to keep digging, they just do it. How deep they go varies and the deeper you go, more respected you will be by others. In other words, the more useless trivia about that thing you learn, bigger your e-dick is.

Them you have casuals, they are similar to fans but they never got past the entry level of the hobby. They have no interest in going further and are satisfied with the little knowledge they got. They lack that natural "push" that makes one want to dig deeper. Casuals get shit on by fans because they lack deeper knowledge and cannot bring new information to discussions about the hobby.

In the context of Touhou anyone can be considered a primary if they still show interest in consuming the source (the games and arguably the print works). A casual who still plays the games without the need of outside influence can still be a primary, regardless of having a 1CC or not.

Finally, you have the posers AKA the fans of the fandom, the secondaries. Unlike the other two they do not have interest on the source material but on something associated with it. Another thing is that they will still claim to be fans anyways (emphasis on this part, some 12 year old spouting memes isn't a secondary). Both fans and casuals will shit on them.

The entry level will be the content that is more commonly accepted as the entry point to the series (it can be EoSD in this case). The source can also be argued about in some cases, some people may tell you that just reading the manga doesn't make you a primary. Subcommunities will also play a role into this. You can be a hardcore fan inside 2hu circles but still a casual in the bigger shmup circle, or a hardcore shmup fan who is a casual in the bigger "video games" circle. Shit varies a lot.

Retard.

I'd like Reimu to get into Smash so I can watch the drama here amongst you retards.

Just like how I want Trump to win 2020.

>>22263396
Back to /pol/ you go.

I've considered myself a fan of this series for well over 10 years. And I've never 1 cc'd any of the games. Only one I've even played at all is EoSD.

I am among you.

>>22263396
>>22263432
Go back

>>22263442
I can't go back if this is where I came from.

>>22242532
This.

Yes, Bro. If Sans is in as a complete Mii. Reimu is in for sure. I think she will be a complete Fighter, but in the worst case, she will be a complete Mii.

complete Mii means complete headgear and outfit.

>>22256881
I can see Reimu in Smash Ultimate in Christmas 2020.

Ishi

>>22242532
Nah, he is better off challenging him for a drinking contest.

>>22254055
>has anyone ever clearly defined what a secondary even is
It's a history/anthropology term. Primary means your impression of the source material is based on experiencing the source material itself. Secondary means that you haven't experienced the source material, and your impression is based on what other people told you about it.

it is like the people who say "OMG im such a nerd" but with weeb instead. They most likely only know a few mainstream anime and have watched even less and spend all their time spouting whatever hot meme like "Traps arent gay xd" on normalfag outlets such as FB, IG, Twitter, Reddit, Youtube, /v/, etc. and generally shitting up everything for the actual fans.
"Irony" is used as an excuse for being retarded, so much that acting like a total retard is totally acceptable because "im just being ironic"
Basically a renaissance of pic related.

>>22284792

Probably just a bored member of Tasofro causing some shit.

Also there hasn't been any word on the AoCF Switch version for quite some time besides an offhand mention.

I thought this was just a forced shitty joke, people actually want Reimu on smash?

>>22284792

>>22284878
Pretty sure it's just your usual roster faggotory.

>>22284792
>The leaker predicted AoCF coming to switch
So did thousands of other shitposters. The release is still nowhere in site and will be coming to PS4 first anyway. Also, ZUN leaves decisions like that up too Tasofro so it means nothing.
>and uploaded 17.5 artwork image
The fuck you talking about? Everyone found out about 17.5 at the same time. There was never a "leak".
Like >>22284911 said, source your shit.

Why the hell is this kusothread made by someone who doesn't even know any japanese let alone how to use GTL still up?

>>22285417
Because people keep bumping it. Next question?

>>22285417

Cross boarders keep bumping it.

Reimu is actually getting into Smash now

several doujin circles are doing several remix compostions for Touhou FOR SMASH at this point

>>22288683

wouldn't this have leaked more easily then?
if these circles really had begun doing it in November, it would mean Reimu would have to be Fighter Pass character 5 and we all know that's Ryu Hayabusa

not really
ZUN talked about Reimu during when Season 2 DLC wasn't even a thing yet (which started somewhere in the summer), so it likely they were still doing negoiations at that time.

also in comparision, Kamiya did a poll for his characters to see who people want in Smash more back in Febuary and Itsuno hinted he'd put DMC first before getting Dante into Smash, but that obviously didn't mean that Dante was in the first season.

>>22289836

Itsuno talked about Dante in Smash a month later

Did you even read the article? They're talking about Play, Doujin and other recent events. It's not that old.

>>22288683
Literally all of this is shit you can fact check yourself with URL's in the post itself. The image expects you to not actually pay attention to the black background forum posts or check your sources, because the April leak guy (bGOXrRH0M )and the August leak guy's (Nf0EGnWcM) ID's are completely different even though they were mentioned as being similar. The last guy also just listed off a list of song names, claimed one circle was arranging it, and he heard of it through a rumor at the chokaigi and is now claiming the other two leaks that weren't him were just him joshing around. There's literally no point to this image beyond expecting retards like (you) to believe it without actually checking anything and making retards like me actually spend more than 5 minutes considering it.

>>22288683

>>22289684
Can I help?

What does Reimu even have to do with Nintendo? Why would they put her in Smash?

>>22292071
At some point the "Why would they put x in Smash?" died after many "impossible characters" ended up in the game.
Also Touhou already has some doujin games on the Switch already as well as an upcoming release for Antimony of Common Flowers.

>>22242349
of course she's not in, her spot was reserved for Rem Lazar
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rKdtO2HWWoc

Reimu would be the only reason for me to care about smash and play it in the first place. Guess I don't need to care for that faggot game now...
It's a fighting game for literal autists and retards anyway.

>>22292071
All the DLC characters so far have been third-parties, some of whom are notoriously hard to license (owned by Microsoft, never appeared on a Nintendo console, biggest franchise in Japan and not allowed to fight other good guys, etc.).

Right now Smash includes the protagonists of THE defining platformer, THE defining fighting game, THE defining JRPG, both of THE defining Metroidvanias, THE defining stealth game... and it just goes on and on, with tons of famous characters. It's become a Who's Who of gaming history, and getting in is a status symbol. Touhou is a groundbreaking franchise in its own right (it's in the Guinness Book of Records), and it represents a genre that's not currently included.

>>22242579
>GAME THEORY - THE TRUTH BEHIND HAKUREI SHRINE

>>22292320
you act like the touhou fandom isn't already on the same level as FNAF or Undertale in terms of sheer autism

imagine being this mad
https://imgur.com/a/pWq7ttV

>>22292306
I would think THE defining shmup is Space Invaders or Twin Bee

I just think it'd be cool if she's in smash. The idea of some random drunkards videogame character standing in the same direct place with Super fucking Mario just makes me feel good. The feeling that pretty much anyone can get on that level with enough effort, dedication, and making just something genuinely worthwhile would be great. Even if the blowback will probably be bad for /jp/ overall. But on the other hand, ZUN getting a cut of Nintendo money to support his family livelihood and the recognition I think he deserves is far, far more important than /v/ raids and newfags.

>>22253964
>>22292320
This is the future you chose.

>>22292487
The crossover art would be great. Imagine Reimu bullying vampires with Belmonts or having a rivalry with Palutena. Imagine Kogasa trying to scare Luigi or Lucas and Ness meeting the Komeiji sisters. You could have Nitori freaking out over ROB or Wario trying to steal Reimu's yin yang orb. Have Reimu show them all how they party back home by sneaking in booze in her sleeves. There is a lot of potential for good fan art.

>>22292872

Not worth it.

>>22292872
Worth it.

>>22292467
I had to look both of those up, but admittedly I'm not a fan of STGs.
I can't believe I've never heard of Space Invaders before.

>>22242369
id rather he not be in smash
i dont want a bunch of fucking cringey man children that scream there ass off knowing about touhou

>>22292320
>>22292340
I've never really understood this mentality.

Is it because you'll no longer be able to segregate yourself with people who share a very particular mindset solely by following a particular series?

>>22293079
>I can't believe I've never heard of Space Invaders
anon you joking right?

>>22292872
Even ignoring fanart, really all I care about is ZUN gets the money he rightfully deserves and the recognition I think he deserves, but that parts just me since logically he's already gotten enough recognition and popularity to last a lifetime. The fanart would be nice though.

I know the others are Rumia, Sakuya, and Kasen, but who are these supposed to be?

>>22293378

Ike and Kirby are probably Youmu and Yuyuko, Palutena is probably Sanae (Prince of Sable attacks as a frog or a snake randomly) and Peach and co are the Yakumos judging by having a fox and a cat.

>>22293426
Ah, thanks.

What do you guys think about this stage idea?

>>22293550
It has actual mechanics that isn't just moving the stage which, lets face it, isn't going to happen even if Reimu gets in Smash, so its a waste of time to even begin reading.

>>22293474

Why is Sanae a pancake.

>>22293108
https://meaningness.com/geeks-mops-sociopaths

>>22293108
no it has to do with mutual respect
if reimu gets added to smash you're suddenly going to have a bunch of people wanting the respect that someone who is actually good at touhou has without doing anything
why should i respect someone who got into touhou a week ago as much as much as my friend who's well versed in the lore and is good at the games

it's not that people have a problem with people getting into it.
it's a problem of respect and interest

it's like a celebrity getting into anime and acting like they've been watching it the whole time

>>22293617
>if reimu gets added to smash you're suddenly going to have a bunch of people wanting the respect that someone who is actually good at touhou has without doing anything
You realize there's already been like, 5 third party characters, right? You're paranoid.

Yeah, when people think of the worst boards on 4chan they think of /jp/. Are you sure you don't just hate this place and go off knowledge you found in some post an anon made years ago to just fall into your own confirmation that /jp/ really was reclining? No other board cares about any other board except for the garbage dumps of /v/, /b/, /pol/, /mlp/, and /trash/. Maybe some /lit/ or /mu/ shitting here and there, but certainly not /jp/. As much as we all hate idol threads other boards have worse things and couldn't give less of a shit about it, and as far as the rest of the sites concerned we're just the touhou board anyways.

Really? I'd have thought it was because of the cuteposting, the elitism, the idol generals, or how almost every post is fueled by passive aggression or anger.

>>22293943
Not since 2008.

>>22294161
If it weren't for the elitism, half the catalog would be made up of wojak and frog edits while the other half would still be idol generals.

>>22294167
Scaring off those idiots is fine, but I'm talking more about thread derailing stuff like this.

There are plenty of templates that can help you create your own gyate.
The biggest issue though, is that unless someone has drawn the base character with clothes and all, you're going to have to draw it yourself. Just try to use the correct brush and colors, and it will usually turn out fine. Don't be afraid to trace parts if you have to.

>>22299839

>>22242349
What a embarrassing thread, especially considering the fact that this quote argues more for her being in smash than not.

>>22301694

No shit dumbass why would Nintendo want Touhou?

>>22303115
Why do you say that?

>>22303139
It's people thinking he broke NDA by saying that, even though he didn't explicitly confirm or deny her being in.

>>22303148
You tell me.

>>22303148
I can name a few reasons:

1. HAL/Sakurai loves shmups yet we haven't seen a shmup character showing up yet, even though it's such a historically important genre. It could be due to most of the big names starring non humanoid spaceships (unless they pulled a captain falcon where you play as John Marine). Twinbee could work though.

2. They could want a character to represent indies since they are a big part of video game culture. So far we only got a costume and Touhou would be a no brainer choice since it's both older and more influential than any popular indie nowadays. It also has geographical advantage.

3. Touhou is popular with a crowd that doesn't overlap much with Nintendo circles. Pandering to a new demographic means more people buying Switch consoles, copies of smash and the DLC by giving them a reason to give a shit about it.

Keep in mind that I am only giving reasons to why Nintendo would want Touhou. Some of these arguments can be applied to other franchises too.

>>22303166
>>22303190

Nintendo has bigger fish to fry.

>>22303208
True, but being the fattest goldfish in the aquarium is still worth something, even if people would rather look at the sharks and whales.

>>22303164
Then they have no idea what they’re talking about since Sakurai has done the same exact thing they did for other characters like Terry, the developers coincidentally say “oh I want — in smash but It’s not up to me” Hell SNK literally said “NINTENDO PLEASE DO IT”.

>>22303226
Sakurai’s other picks*

>>22303226

The issue is all those other people said that in response to being asked by interviewers.

ZUN brought it up himself, unprompted.

>>22303282
That’s not true, and it also doesn’t make a difference at all. ZUN was asked about putting Touhou in other games, he brought up the golden goose that everyone wonders about anyways. NDA isn’t broken
