There's been thousands of Touhou-only events in Japan and China while all that america has is the dingy little Touhoucon and fest. What a disgrace

what an informative thread, I hope interesting discussion of OP's material and comment ensues.

Has there ever been events outside of these countries? I heard once on /jp/ that there used to be a nice little Mexican meet before the chinkvirus

>> No.46885374

Yeah, so? Touhou is a Japanese series not an American one. It's understandable that there aren't as many events in America since it isn't as popular here.

Guess we should pull out the nukes again.

The number of fans (real fans who engage in doujin activities) in the US is tiny compared to Japan and they're spread too thin anyway.

The only shit Westroons care about are fumos, toby fox, and shitty memes. You don't need to leave your house for any of those, why would they even need a con?

So I can spend thousands of dollars in gas, hotels, and food, buy a pitiful selection of fan doujin that gets everything wrong about the setting and characters, from personality to body shape, and all for the small, small price of 600% over original import price, followed by going back to my home afterward and checking ebay for the same things that are now marked way lower or way higher.

It's about the experience.

lol.

the "experience" of being around a bunch of unwashed overweight weebs at a con that was probably more likely made for revenue than for fan interest.

You're way better off just going to Reitaisai than some shitty con in Commifornia.

Host an online only con for 4chan and /jp/ if you wanna do something about it.

Outside of Japan, only other east asians are tolerable. The western fandom adds negative value, the number of non-secondaries is thin and there is no doujin culture
