/jp/ - Otaku Culture

What

Parsee

>>6914651
fuck no. worst touhou ever.

Koishi manipulated them into liking SA more

Sluts are not that appealing honestly. Also the superior crow is in SA.

Buckets
BUCKETS EVERYWHERE

I stopped caring when IN cast lost. ;_:

But none of that explains the sudden jump in views.

Views? Views of what?

>>6914670
It was answered here>>6914651 they love Parsee for some reason.

>>6914647
Check the current SA's MVP's profile, his okuu pics are huge in popularity (some even have 40k views).

>>6914681
Oh wow, I just did. That guy is a beast, especially looking at MoF's mvp.

Eat shit, MoF.

I don't really care much about this but I do appreciate all the new Sanae images.

Besides, I like SA much more than MoF.

>>6914698 No, only Touhoufags call Utsuho that name. I dare not to repeat that name.

>>6914712
Huh?

>>6914681
Oh shit that Koishi face pic of his has over 12k favs now, and 300k views.

SA has Okuu.

>>6914718
You called utsuho okuu, which is not her name. good day sir

Er, 7k. 12k is the number of votes or something.

>>6914738
Okay. Thanks for posting.

And here I thought that MoF winning was settled, after I checked the chart today my mind pictured Okuu doing a massive trollface.

Then again, there's still 3 days left.

what are you guys talking about some danbooru contest?

>>6914736
>>6914747
Why is it no one can draw Okuu's feet without it looking like shit?

These happened, in particular.

Also Yuugi, Yamame, pretty much all of the cast of SA was good.

I'd be rooting for SA, but all it's got going for it is the Komeiji sisters and, to a lesser extent, Okuu. Their great and all, but everyone else underground is barely average, or less.

>>6914758
Be happy

>>6914758
Because it's a giant lump of concrete. How do you expect a giant lump of concrete to look good?

Incidently, it must be hard to change underwear with a giant lump of concrete on your foot.

>>6914772
Yuugi is pretty nifty

>>6914765
Good strategy, save up and then unload a ton of porn in the last few days and blitz it before the slut factories can catch up.

>>6914747
3 days and a badass artist on the SA side.
Time for a miracle, I hope.

>>6914758

One of her feet is stuck in a molten blob of metal. In particular it's supposed to be like the "Elephant's Foot" blob of molten core metal at Chernobyl.

Other foot obviously is supposed to be like 50s style atom mockup with orbiting electrons.

>>6914772
No offense, but you have no taste in Touhous, good sir.

>>6914738
You're getting butthurt over a nickname that a character is canonically called as a way of respecting her? Too bad.

MoF was the worst touhou. Except for the Aya fight, that was neat.

>>6914795

I was about to say, Okuu is not a fanon pet name, she calls herself that as a nickname, and other people/youkai call her that.

>>6914800

Youkai are people, too.

>>6914782
Actually, not much of that content has been released over the past few days, mostly it's the artists that draw badass-incarnate starting to reveal their saved up Okuu gallery, biggest example would be SA's current MVP.

>>6914792
Do tell.

>>6914807
gtfo, byakuren.

>>6914800
>she calls herself
And you got this from where?

Her dialogue says that everyone just calls her that, maybe it was Orin or Satori that made it up for her and nothing else is told, don't mind it as it's a minor thing.

It can't be helped. The best touhou, is well, the best touhou.

>>6914808
I get so tired of those. Every character seems to have a specific template for high quality pics that everyone follows. I'd rather people reveal their saved up wedding dress Satori galleries.

What is the website for this contest?

>>6914772
This.

MoF had Hina, Nitori, Sanae, Kanako and Suwako. Those are like the 5 best touhous.

Don't forget the tengu, bro.

>>6914844

I'm on passable terms with all of those, but none of them are exceptional to me besides Suwako. Suwako and Sanae pretty much hold up MoF by themselves as far as I'm concerned.

Only one mention of my Kanako-chan? You all need more faith.

>>6914844

Momiji was the best girl in MoF.

>>6914861
As far as I'm concerned the reason MoF got a sudden start in the final round was Ume's snake-eyed loli Kanako, that thing spreaded like the flu.

I want moar SA pics

They are the best thing of MoF

slowpoke here but


How the flying fuck did EOSD lose?

It has Sakuya, Remilia, Flandre, even fucking Cirno

SA has cat bitch, bird-o, and loli twins


iambuttdevastedthatsakuyalostseriouslywat

>>6914887

They are getting old.

>>6914887
Utsuho is better than every character from eosd combine, DEAL WITH IT

>>6914887
Typical Sanae hater

>>6914887
Like all good Sakuya fans, blame it on China.

I mean Sakuya is the best heroine.. right?

>>6914887
EOSD has the most obnoxious fanbase in the west.

I'm rooting for you Okuu.

Show MoF what you're made of!

>>6914897

Sakuya > Sanae

There are 2 days left. Don't put on your silly victory hats yet.

>>6914887
I dunno, but in the quarterfinals EoSD vs SA had 4.5 million views, MoF vs UFO had a total of less than 2 million.

>>6914903

That would be PCB.

>>6914920
No way. Not even close.

>>6914927
CHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!

>>6914920
Youmu fans are shit and the only other PCB Touhous people remember are Ran, Chen, and Yukari.

>>6914887

People realized that EoSD is a fucking decade old, and that it's probably time to move on. Seeing how resistant to change Japanese are to changing something that "works" and changing a general consensus, it's kind of surprising to me that they aren't going to stick with EoSD until the day they die. Although it's probably less of a conscious decision and more like SA is just that fucking good.

You can also look at how in Saimoe, the same character doesn't win every year if she qualifies; it'd get boring if it's the same winner over and over.

>>6914887
Out of those, only Cirno is really relevant.

IN gets trolled to hell and back here on /jp/, but I feel its the best game in the series. So many different teams and characters, alternate stage bosses, spell practice mode, final spell, etc. The music is fantastic as well.
At the risk of coming off as a faggot, I'm actually glad it didn't get much attention in this contest. These artists are mostly all secondaries who can only ruin the characters with their own interpretations of them that they push in an attempt to make it a generally accepted view of said character.

I figured someone should tell you you sound really silly.

>>6914939

...they are?

>>6914988
And guess who wrote that.

>>6914960
More like you seem upset that IN didn't win, cause the latter part of what you said is crap.

>>6914988
Correct me if I'm wrong here anon, but is that not written by a secondary? The only Touhou manga I've read has been SSiB, so that is my reason for asking.

We all loves ZUN style

I dunno. It happens. In all honesty I prefer MoF cast to SA but oh well, more pictures, who can complain?

>>6915004
The person who wrote that has probably played the games. Most of the artists have.

Anybody got anymore good pictures?

>>6915001
I was being honest. I could say how I love that one obscure number no one really talks about. I dont like the abused Reisen, Caved, Wriggledick, neet Kaguya, or manly angry Mokou. All of those are fanwork derivatives.

>>6915016

Most of the stuff i have saved is too big for 4chan.

>>6915016

Would you consider this good?

>>6915025
>I dont like the abused Reisen, (...), neet Kaguya, or manly angry Mokou.

Well, you're better off not reading Inaba & Inaba, then. Just a friendly warning.

>>6914808
Does anyone have a link to this guy's pixiv?

>>6915035
No
>>6915043
Somewhat

>>6915043
Okuu built a stargate on her back?

>>6915050
Mokou was a good girl and not manly in Inaba.

>>6915025
>abused Reisen, neet Kaguya, manly angry Mokou
They're canon, sorry.

You do not enjoy the NEET Kaguya?
I am not one myself, but I could relate with her at least. It has to be my most loved quick of any toho.

doggy doggy.

>>6915070
Pants on Mokou =! manly. Were pants not a sign of wealth?

>>6915051
I'm sure danbooru has.
And iqdb has the link to the picture on danbooru.
And easymodo has the link to iqdb.

There, now you have a fishing rod.

>>6915065
A good, MANLY girl.

>>6915031Put some links up from like tinypic or shit like that

subeterrean animalism has a better story IMO.

It has the first *real* threat to the existence of Gensokyo as opposed to just 'incidents'.

>>6915092

Can't you just go to Pixiv and save them yourself?

>>6915083
I can't tell which pictures are his.

>>6915095
All incidents could have heavily damaged or destroyed Gensokyo. Okuu roasting the surface was just the most...uh...direct one.

>>6915095
Nuclear energy? A threat? You goddamn enviromentalists don't understand the progress.

>>6915054

Well, I tried.

>>6915110
Let's see.

Red mist? Nope, plants didn't seem to wither.
Lack of spring for a day? No.
Moon replaced by a fake one for a night? No.
Plants acting odd? Not at all, solved itself.
Gods trying to convert Reimu to their religion? More like a sure way to get a beat up.

And then, a bird with galaxy-rampaging powers threatening to burn Gensokyo to a crisp should nobody come to her first? Eh, it's kinda getting ther- YES.

>>6915134
>should nobody come to her first

This is the key phrase here.

Of course someone was coming. You don't make a nuclear reactor and then leave it to itself. What heroines did was ultimately pointless, they just saved Kanako & co. some time, at most.

>>6915134
Red mist could have been a serious long-term thing, not to mention it damages the quality of life for everyone. Resurrecting the Saigyou Ayakashi could have screwed over a couple people.

Well, mostly it's that anything big and noticable happening usually means someone's up to something.

>>6915134
Red mist? Plants didn't wilt because Reimu beat up the vampire responsible before this happened. Not to mention that youkai attack people during the night.
Lack of spring? Unsealing the demon cherry tree so it can murder more people to death, and you in the process? Great idea, Yuyuko!

>>6915160
The red mist kills in thirty minutes.

>>6915134
The mist was getting so bad that people couldn't leave their homes.
Spring was gone longer than a day and showed no signs of returning. Long winters are really dangerous in feudal societies.
The fake moon causes insanity when looked at.
The Hakurei Shrine being taken over would fuck with the barrier.

>>6915157
Nope, backstory tells that the gods didn't give a shit about Gensokyo, and didn't do anything even after hearing about the incident.

>>6915166
Spring was being collected during that time, Yuyuko mentions how she's going to use it all up in one day, although it's true that the tree is an evil murderous bastard.

The moon caused insanity, yes, but it was only going to last a few hours according to Eirin, what Reimu did was to make things quicker.

And no, all Kanako was planning to do is to convert Reimu to her religion so that there wouldn't be any repulsion, as long as Reimu's alive then the border would be fine.

Mist? Don't have much info on that, but it certainly wasn't as deadly, nor any of the above incidents, as SA's. SWR does come the closest, having a spoiled child starting to troll people with earthquakes out of boredom, although she did not mean any (much) harm.

>>6914647
I'm happy about this, I like the patterns more in SA, and for the most part I prefer the characters. MoF has Suwako, but SA has bucket-loli, Orin, and Okuu, and I actually like the fight with Parsee.

this pic makes SA win

Hisoutensoku had the shittiest incidents

>>6915223
Uhh, the backstory is all about how they give a shit about Gensokyo. Bringing forth industrial revolution and all that. Can't do that on the scorched earth, now can you?

>>6915264
There was no incident, only a fairy being paranoid and a shrine maiden...also being paranoid.

By the way, all fighting games have every route as canon but is Soku the exception? It seems Cirno's and Sanae's story mode collide with the events of the other.

>>6915223
Okuu would never succeed in roasting the surface. Some high-power youkai would take notice and put a stop to it.

I don't know what you're trying to say about PCB. Yuyuko using it all up in one day doesn't mean she just had a days worth of spring, if that's what you mean. Either way, if it was used up, it wouldn't be coming back.

Didn't know about the moon only lasting a few hours. I'll have to look into that. Maybe.

It is specifically stated in the MoF prologue that the Hakurei Shrine must not close down, which the Moriya Shrine was trying to do, due to it's role with the barrier.

The mist wasn't deadly (yet), but again, it was making it so people couldn't leave their homes. Maybe you can't breath in it, maybe it dissolves your skin, maybe it just itches a little, but it was steadily getting worse. Who knows how bad it would get. This isn't considering the whole blotting out the sun thing.

>>6915274
They were only using Gensokyo as a mild alternative, and what are you doing arguing and making assumptions against plain written canon text?

>>6915287
>Some high power youkai would put a stop to it
Eheheh, I chuckled at this line, it's so ironic.

>MoF
That wouldn't make sense, why would they aim to destroy the place they are trying to conquer? It's more of a shrine replacement with the same faculties, after all, the big requirement is the shrine maiden herself.

>>6915291
I am citing canon text almost word by word, silly person.

>>6915302
Ironic? How so?

Team Moriya don't know jack about how the barrier works. I don't either...but the prologue says the shrine can't be closed, so...

>>6915317
Touhou cannon is't consistent. Cannon isn't even cannon these days.

Oh god, SA broke the 100000 mark on their lead.
Hold me.

>>6915375
Taking a lead that fast, I doubt this is legitimate.

>>6915326
I think he means that Okuu is also a high-leveled youkai, being the most absurd-ability Stage 6 boss there is. Put rage in that combination and everything will go kerblooey.

>>6915383
It's been explained before, the most popular artists only started releasing pics in this week, the current MVP is a total monster in popularity, 40k views is common for his pics.

>>6915391
I dunno...they were neck and neck this week, then yesterday and today SA just skyrocketed.

>>6915411
...Now read >>6915391 again.

>>6915051
Can somebody at least point me to which pictures in this thread are his?

>>6915427
But he said "this week" not "yesterday."
...I'm arguing specifics now, though. Forget it.

<-Current MVP

He's quite the contributer, hot damn.

>>6915446
Both teams were racking up views every nanosecond, so it has to take some time first, not to mention that not ALL of the artists let it out on the same day, they were releasing their galleries on each of this week's days. It gathered up yesterday and boom.

>>6915384
>most absurd-ability stage 6 boss there is
You think so?

>>6915454

>>6914775
>>6914758
Like this, of course. There's a TON of beautiful interpretations of the Three Legs.

>>6915483
Yes, especially when ZUN says that character's abilities are reflected more on their danmaku more so than real life, apparently death = butterflies on her case. She must need to beat people in danmaku first seeing as how she didn't just use her instakill on them.

Utsuho however, her ability is more concrete as is manipulation of something physically manuverable rather than something more on the conceptual side, of course this is shown with her control of the underground reactor.

>>6915524
>character's abilities are reflected more on their danmaku more so than real life
I've seen that stated before. Citation?

So many fucking secondaries here. Goddamn.

>>6915539
I'm not sure if he has it but there's this.

http://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Perfect_Memento:_Draft_of_Spell_Card_Rules

It says that one's abilities shall not be used to a full extent, i.e: people's abilities aren't as hax as they might sound. Not quite what he said but this should do the trick.

>>6915589
Wouldn't that apply just to spell card duels? Spraying hellfire over the human village would probably fall outside of that.

bumpin

>>6915524
>She must need to beat people in danmaku first seeing as how she didn't just use her instakill on them.

Yuyuko doesn't go around instakilling people for fun. I remember reading she is quite responsible of her powers and reluctant to ever use it. One of the reasons (if not the only reason, though I think there was something with the Saigyou Ayakashi) she commited suicide was that she was afraid of her own powers.

Nevertheless, because of that, Yuyuko isn't nearly as dangerous as the batshit insane Utsusho, but more powerful? I don't know about that.

>>6915607
Yes, that's what I was referring to, Okuu's ability is more concrete and although we don't yet know the ''extent'' of the rule, it's at least confirmed that she can make her own hell, the whole world even.

SA is more, alluring.

>>6915697
If we go by sheer power then Utsuho would top any youkai, the whole sun-making business, even Yukari calls it ''so much it's almost evil'' in Soku.

The other hand is danmaku, which is the standard for Gensokyo, however.

>>6915714
>If we go by sheer power then Utsuho would top any youkai
Ok, now we're just being silly.

>>6915724
yuuka is overrated

>>6915724
We don't actually know what her powers are though. Other than manipulation of flowers.

>>6915724
Well there's nothing clear yet, they both got named with the words ''ultimate'', Yuuka got the ''Ultimate magic'' (which I'm not sure if she even has it anymore, seeing as how Kyoh Gyoku was more of a cameo, this can't be argued since ZUN said nothing about it) while Utsuho got the ''Ultimate Power'' according to the manual, the way of using it of course, is what matters.

>>6915733
>>6915738
Stop. You cannot honestly be implying that Okuu is the strongest youkai, raw power wise or not. It's just not true.

>>6915707

/jp/ meetup

>>6915744
I never said she was the strongest, I said she's the one with the highest amount of sheer power, it's the same argument that people use for Yuka, except this one is clearer and confirmed.

>>6915707
>Title: If we get naked, will our views go up...?
>Satorin & co. finally decided to sell their bodies. It's a system where for they get fucked once for every time the view counter goes up. >Science sure is amazing!!
Oh, fuck you, masara. You've ruined SA's imminent victory.

>>6915750
>this one is clearer and confirmed.
No it's not.
I'm not arguing about this.

>>6915757
You seem upset.

And yes, it's clear and confirmed. What's not to get?

>>6915751
Funny how the SA views trigger started right after that picture.

I think Okuu's design works so well because, while she has some futuristic parts, she still is frilly. And that's something very befitting of Touhou.

>>6915764
Ugh.
First thing's first...citation needed.

>>6915779
Relax, I'm leaving now anyway, I'll just leave you the ''citation'', so don't reply to this. And don't get me wrong, I'm not saying she's unbeatable or anything, I'm saying she's the highest in terms of raw power, that doesn't affect much in Gensokyo.

http://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Utsuho_Reiuji#Official_Profiles

And besides, the SA interview hasn't been translated so we don't know everything that ZUN says about her.

>>6914700
this

I like how artists are still adding the contest tag to their pictures of teams who have already been knocked out. Somehow I find their persistence admirable.

>>6914895
The only thing I don't like about that pic is how the cape fuses so well with the bg. It removes the feeling that her cape is a portal into strange space far far away.

The artist should just stick some high-contrast nebulas and supernovas in there, with at least one touching the border of the cape so you only see half of it

>>6915724

She hold tremendous power not achievable by any ordinary youkai, it's literally the power of gods.
Okuu is definitely one of the strongest youkai around, but since she's stupid she can't possibly do much harm.
Read the theme description in SA.

>>6919854
If learned one thing about ZUN was to never trust his ''edgy'' remarks like the little comments in the afterwords and song descriptions. While it's true she's guillible, she's plently of capable of burning Gensokyo to a crisp should the ''reason'' (according somewhat to PMiSS) be strong enough, i.e: Rage.

SA is just better than MoF

SA had: Kisume, Parsee, Yuugi, Satori, Rin, and Utsuho

MoF had: The two most forgettable characters ever, Hina, Nitori, two sluts, and Kanako/Suwako.

Bump for da great justice

>>6919893
Hey, Suwako being the slut greatx14u809182 grandmother of slut Sanae makes MoF much better than SA.

hmm. I wish to save this thread for its great SA pics

>>6920479
>Hey, Suwako being the slut greatx14u809182 grandmother of slut Sanae makes MoF much sluttier than SA.

Fixed.

>>6920548
Haha Thats funny.
