/jp/ - Otaku Culture

VA choices aren't as cool as the Maikaze fan anime.

I just hope this things plays OK though.

there is going to be another shitty doujin touhou anime episode?

>>6390224
the demo came out a while ago, but HOLY SHIT THEY HAVE VOICES NOW?

>Izayoi Sakuya：　Sawashiro Miyuki (Shinku from Rozen Maiden, Saeko from Highschool of the Dead, Celty from Durarara!)

You are a disgusting sack of crap if you think those are her notable roles.

>>6390259
I knew someone was going to complain about his examples.

>Flandre Scarlet：　Kanemoto Hisako (Ika Musume from Ika Musume)

>Izayoi Sakuya：　Sawashiro Miyuki (Shinku from Rozen Maiden, Saeko from Highschool of the Dead, Celty from Durarara!)
>Flandre Scarlet：　Kanemoto Hisako (Ika Musume from Ika Musume)
>Hong Meiling：　Satou Satomi (Ritsu from K-ON!)
>Hakurei Reimu：　Satou Rina (Misaka Mikoto from Railgun,
>Yakumo Ran：　Kobayashi Yuu (Mariya from Maria†Holic)

>>6390263
The funniest/worst part is that he put nothing for Ryoko Shintani. Shitty idol VAs, they're important. But not the prolific famous vets.

>>6390267
What show is Ika Musume from again?

>>6390263
Yeah they're bad examples, but who cares. Sawashiro should be good in this; she has a nice vocal range. Not a completely perfect maid voice like what Rie Tanaka did in the other fanime, but still pretty good.

the examples are obviously for newfriends, why the fuck do you all care?
jeezus give the guy a fucking break and tsop being so anal, this is why /jp/ is going down the shitter

>>6390301
侵略!イカ娘

Can anyone toss me a link to the teaser if any exists?

>Yakumo Yukari：　Endo Aya
WHAT THE FLYING FUCK
WHY

This game failed at catching the castlevania groove. Artwork was the closest thing.

>>6390224
>Sawashiro Miyuki

It'd be cool if she used her tomboy voice for this(Milanor, Tomokane, Hidamari landlady, etc.) but I love her anyway. Can't wait for the full version of this.

>Izayoi Sakuya：　Sawashiro Miyuki

HOLY SHIT I CAME

>Hakurei Reimu：　Satou Rina (Misaka Mikoto from Railgun,
I dunno what should I feel about this.

>>6390321
Yeah hopefully this second one is a lot better. The lack of flying through stages should help. The bosses still had this wacky 2 attack patterns only thing going on the demo though.

I just hope they're not spending all this time working on everything else except the gameplay.

That. Fucking. Cast list. There are some I'm not too sure on, but overall HOLY SHIT.

...Though really, Shintani Ryoko for Marisa? That... that just doesn't seem to fit.

>>6390329
Yeah, I'll miss Nakahara-Reimu... oh well.

wait what the fuck mind blown, this better not be trolling, I will be very upset
link does not work, another reference?

Didn't Miyuki Sawashiro play Marisa in the Maikaze anime? She's going to have to beat Rie Tanaka's Sakuya.

This game will be awesome

>>6390357
I just tried it, the link works fine.

Really didn't like the overly sweet Maria maid voice Rie used for Sakuya.

>Saigyouji Yuyuko: Shiina Hekiru (Maria Renard from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night)

>Yakumo Ran:Kobayashi Yuu (Mariya from Maria†Holic)

>>6390384

Best sakuya voice ever.

>>6390384
Even so, Rie Tanaka is probably one of the best choices for Sakuya. Whatever characterization you give to Sakuya, she'd pull off the role perfectly.

>>6390384
>>6390399
Yea, she should have put a bit more of an edge to it.

>>6390407
It wasn't really her fault; she was probably told to voice Sakuya in a specific way.

But yeah, just a slight edge to it would've been nice.

When is the second day of the C79 ?

>>6390412
December 30th

How can they afford these VA's? Or rather, why are they donating their time to touhou?

>>6390384

But Maria + the power to fly and stop time = canon Sakuya.

So Alice + Komachi and Marisa + Chen are going to have the same VAs? Guess they must be on a budget or something.

>>6390431

Or they're relatively minor characters, and so not worth getting another VA for. Or their VA has a good enough range that she can voice both effectively.

>>6390431
or they have so few lines that nobody gave a fuck

>>6390440
Haruka Tomatsu can definitely voice a very wide range of characters. Not too sure about Ryoko Shintani, though....

>>6390431
>>6390440
>>6390442
Doujin circle with limited resources? Inconceivable!

Who cares about VAs that will only have a few lines of spoken dialogue. The bigger question is, will the music be as good as a real Castlevania game?

>>Yakumo Yukari：　Endo Aya

I wanted Byaku's voice to be Aya.

>>6390454

The past game had good music, lets hope this one have even better music

>Remilia Scarlet：　Kitamura Eri
>Flandre Scarlet：　Kanemoto Hisako

I can't fap to this ;_;

So what kind of game is this?

>>6390454
You are now imagining touhou rearrangements with SotN OST mash ups
>Enter Yukari
>Necrofantasia/Bloody Tears starts playing

>>6390464

>Touhouvania

Stop being such a retard, doesnt the name give you a clue ?

>>6390454
The first one's soundtrack was pretty cool. It was more of a Castlevania homage than a Touhou homage:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pleW665C-vs

This is the worst Touhou cast for any work I've seen so far.

>Hakurei Reimu：　Satou Rina
Fucking bandwagon

>>6390464
Castlevania-esque 2d sidescroller RPG.

>>6390469

>>6390475
Aja's touhouvania style games are more in the vein of the pre-SOTN games, which are more actiony.

>>6390491

I hope Frontier Aja makes a Metroidvania styled Thouhouvania one day

I approve.

no hanazawa in touhou anime? i'm disappointed

Is OP's image avalibe in higher res?

Keep getting generic application error or some shit like that when I try to run the demo, what hell?

>>6390499
If they do, I'll buy five copies. Not joking.

>Onozuka Komachi
wait what? komachi? i wonder what will she do then, she wasn't present on the boss "chart" in the demo.

>>6390499
This. Half the fun of Castlevania is jumping around exploring the castle and extra bosses.

>>6391053
Well it IS a Castlevania game, someone has to stand-in for Death.

>>6390491

This one is going to be more Metroidvania-ish than the previous one, apparently.

-awesome character art and graphics: check
-awesome soundtrack: check
-awesome VAs: check
-metroidvania archetype: check
-free english translation: check

How will they manage to fuck up, I wonder.

>>6391272
I hope they won't. Demo played really great. The only thing that bugged me was Chen's ridiculous danmaku during the boss fight on Hard. It was frustrating.

>Izayoi Sakuya：　Sawashiro Miyuki
Sold.

Also:
>Konpaku Youmu：　Hirohashi Ryo
>Yakumo Ran：　Kobayashi Yuu
>Hakurei Reimu：　Satou Rina

Holy mother.

>>6391272

I really hope they dont, this game looks promising.

>How will they manage to fuck up, I wonder.
uninteresting and repetitive level design. just because the recent ds castlevanias do it doesn't mean it has to be replicated too.

I just know it's going to be bad, it has to be..
nothing can ever be good ;_;

>>6391358
Is it even possible to reinvent platformers?

>>6391395
Hope springs eternal in the human breast: Man never is, but always To be Blest

>>6391422
it's possible to do an interesting, varied level design instead of zigzagging stairways and bland hallways which use the same tileset over and over.

it's possible to put enemies in strategic positions instead of spreading them randomly around the level with a spray can tool.

you don't have to reinvent anything for that. you just need a creative level designer, something touhouvania never had.

>>6391458
>put enemies in strategic positions
And the we have folks complaining how it is too difficult because a minotaurs downstairs does not let you move further down. Which the first game had.

>>6392027
But...you can fly...

I'm here for the VNs, don't follow the Touhou fanbase much.

What am I looking at here?

>>6392266
TOUHOU
CASTLEVANIA
HMMMM

>>6392308
I can read the thread.

That tells me nothing about what this is.

>>6392483
It's a Touhou Castlevania game. You know what Castlevania is, right?

>>6392308
Is it Touhoumetroidvania or Touhouclassicvania ?

>>6392483
You have been on /jp/ for about a month or so?

>>6392508
Been here since the split, don't see how that has to do with anything. I simply wish to know what this is? A professional game done with the permission of Zun with real voice actors? A fan game with professional voice actors? A collaboration project between Zun and a professional game company?

Saying it's Castlevania + Touhou tells me no details of just what I'm looking at.

>>6392508
Classic.

>>6392534
Fan game with professional voice actors.

>Cast in: Dark Love (OAV) as Hazuki Sogawa

I feel confused.

>>6392565
Thank you sir, sorry that I was confusing you.

bump for awesomeness.

This is glorious. Much, much better choices than Maikaze's godawful casting.

Kinda worried about Marisa and Youmu given their past roles, but this is a great set otherwise.
I'd post shutupandtakemymoney.jpg but I can't find it.

Aya Endo as Yukari isn't a bad thing, though it'll have a Sheryl vibe to it most likely. It'd be fitting as there's a few times where folks had Yukari cosplay as her. Not to mention a Yukari as Miyuki picture I've seen.

Hopefully this won't have any glaringly bad jobs like Mazikaze's Marisa. Everything else in that was alright to PERFECT.

All that's left to hope for is them fixing whatever flaws were in the demo.

>Yakumo Ran：　Kobayashi Yuu

Stop hiring expensive voice actors you faggots.

>>6394442
I don't think you have any idea how the industry works.

>>6394445
I think I don't give a shit. I hate voice actor obsession andd sakugafags. High production values should fuck off.

>>6394448
That argument would make sense if VAs were expensive. They're not. Almost none of them can't even make a living off voice acting alone.

>>6394453
>can't
can
Durr

am I the only one who thought Rie's Sakuya was perfect? It's how I imagined Sakuya. A sweet maid, but deadly in battle.

>>6392700
She'd better not use that high-pitced voice for Patchouli.

>>6394459
>MEEEEEEWKYEEEEEEEEEW

>>6394453
Every time someone mentions how cheap anime is to make I wonder why some rich anime nerd hasn't single-handedly saved the anime industry.

>>6394491
They're too busy wasting their money on figurines, wallscrolls, and multiple copies of Blu-Rays/DVDs. Also, animation and physical production are the expensive parts. Not voice acting. Most voice actors more or less cost the same anyway since they're just hired through their agencies.

>>6394491

Each anime episode can take around 50,000 in production cost alone, providing you want to avoid QUALITY

Is this a different project from the ufotable-produced crossover thing?

>>6394495
I don't want to avoid QUALITY. Cultivating an aesthetic that enjoys QUALITY in consumers would be good for everyone.

>>6394515
Ufotable thing: a promotional anime using the Touhou characters to advertise the Animate chain of stores.

This thing: an Castlevania-esque Touou fangame with pro voice actors.

Just because people seemed to be confused lately. Neither have anything to do with ZUN either.

>>6394422
Actually, Miyuki Sawashiro could have done a pretty good job as Marisa. Unfortunately Maikaze decided to not have Marisa actually act like Marisa.

Thinking about it, the voice she used for Kanbaru in Bakemonogatari wouldn't have been too bad...

>>6394448
Oh look, one of these guys "Don't put voices on my characters ! BAWWW!" You're the only faggot here.

>>6394787
No, I'm anti-industry, not anti-voices. Go hit up IOSYS or a similar group instead.

>>6394843
Fuck yeah man! They should just stop making anime and video games entirely, they all get pirated anyway!

They can used the money they would spend producing such wastes of time on things like more Japanese talkshows and JPOP albums.
