Sounds good. I'm looking forward to it.

This will be the word of God that will confirm the superiority of the TAO

Nice.

I wonder how much fanon crap will be crushed by this one.

>>8202360
I wonder how much will be confirmed.

>>8202360
ZUN should mention off handedly that one of the major characters has a boyfriend. The anal pain would be heard from Mars.

>>8202375
Weren't some of the TD characters married?

Good Lord, what kind of fucking retarded title is that?

ZUN love DEEP titles.

>>8202384
... I think it is a reference to an event Japan had about Post-modernism.

I find it amusing.

Which is? Help us out, not everyone knows about Japan, we mostly just masturbate to its porn.

>>8202413
Yeah, I tried to stick to the weirder ones.

>>8202417
Sorry. I only remember one taking place in Tokyo in these last 3 years, but I really am not sure when.

Symposium = Drinkink party
Post-mysticism = after Mystic Square

I think ZUN is releasing this book to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Windows era (EoSD was released on 2002).

>>8202432
I mean Drinking, not Drinkink...

>>8202436
I forgive you.

>>8202387
Sure, whatever keeps you asleep at night, mate.

Wasn't Futo believed to be married, too?

Guys, I have to wonder... you think that by some twisted thread of fate Touhou might end up as a religion one day.

You know, as in 2000 years from now these books will be held sacred, with the deep held belief that after death humans become fairies in a mystical land out of reach.

>>8202443
And their priests will wear frilly dresses and drink tea/beer all day erryday. Splendid, where do I sign up?

ZUN best give my little devil a proper name.

>>8202453
>priests

You mean mikos.

>>8202432

This makes a lot of sense. I'll stick with that theory too, dude.

I wonder what will he write about in a "celebration" book, though. Maybe continue PMiSS, or just a collection of short stories... maybe both? I'm excited like a kid.

And the artist is pretty good, too.

>>8202730
checked out his pixiv. yeah the artist is pretty awesome, but he/she doesn't seem to draw a lot of touhou. only found one picture with remilia and flandre in it

>>8202443
You're joking, but I totally think that a big part of the popularity of Touhou is because it's like a polytheistic religion. I'm sure ancient religion worked in the same way, only there wasn't internet and people were less cultivated and more superstitious and believed it was real.
It's the same as greeks or egyptians making up complicated stories about their gods and making art of them in all forms imaginable, people deciding what their favorite gods are, their traits etc..
It worked for people back then and it works for all of us now. I'm atheist as fuck but I totally recognize a slight religous behaviour in my approach to Touhou

Marisa seems to be reading a book with Remilia. I wonder what it's about.

>>8202775
They're reading Symposium of Post-mysticism.

>I'm atheist as fuck

Join the agnostic master race, and you will be able to believe in anything you want and don't feel bad about it.

I'm serious, Touhou made me realize I'm not actually atheist. I found it makes me feel better when I assume there really are little fairies living in the sealed wonderland somewhere in Japan. I won't give that up for the sake of rationalism (especially since I don't really have to).

Is there a name for this school of thought? Like "delusionalism" or something.

(Not attacking you; this is the best way of thinking)

>>8202443
I know my big thing with Touhou is it allows me to enjoy all of my nerdy delights with the combined pleasure of having a pantheon of demigods as characters.

If a Touhou-ist movement ever gets started, I'll be right there on the street corner handing out the scripture.

Praise be to the great Yukari Yakumo, progenitor of distinction and lord of boundaries. May the lines she draws between here and nowhere extend to the highest heavens.

Summary

-The book will tell a story about the three divided religions in Gensokyo. Shinto, Buddhism and Taoism and how tense are to each other.

-8 Chapters stories on Gensokyo fate between the warring religions and the conclusions

-There will also be a new content for Gensokyo Chronicles (PMiSS), Bunbunmaru Newspaper (BAiJR) and Kakashi Spirit News content on characters from MoF to TD.

In other word, It's PMiSS+BAiJR+New Contents on one book

>>8206821
>Kakashi Spirit News
>Relevant

Congrats, Hatatatatatatata, you've finally made it.

>In other word, It's PMiSS+BAiJR+New Contents on one book

While that is pretty awesome, I'd still prefer a few separate books. There's only so much content that can you fit on 160 pages, after all.

>>8206845
What if it's more than 160 pages...

>>8206855
Its 1800 yen right? Can't be much more than the other ones.

>>8206863
If i'm not mistaken, the contents of Bohemian Archive is half actual contents and half doujin manga and it costs 1800 Yen. PMiSS on the other hand is 100% actual contents and the price is 1900 Yen.

Given that the book is 1800 Yen. I guess they will cramp everything on it. Or maybe they cut short. Or maybe the paper quality will be crap

>>8206855
It says 160P on OP's picture.

Wait, so will the book be getting the everything from PMiSS and the other materials to the new one? I was planning to buy myself PMiSS, Runagate, and Bohemian archive this Christmas.

Also, up on Amiami.

It's contents are pretty much summarized in >>8206821. By the way, mind sharing method to get them? I'm not in the US/EU, so I have a lot of trouble with this.

>>8207148
It'll have Akyuu, Aya, and Hatan's articles about the MoF+ characters to supplement the story about religions. That's how I read it anyway.

Thanks for the info.
>>8211023
Then it seems more likely that the content in the previous works won't be in this book. 160 pages isn't that many to cram all of them.

>>8210834
You mean the books? I'm going to use a proxy to order directly from Ichijinsha. Try looking at paletweb, otacute, and bk1. They should have some of them. Especially bk1. That's where I got all my Touhou mangas.

>>8211398
Or if you have a Kinokunia nearby. Just order there.

SPOILER: They settle the question with a danmaku tournament, coming as Touhou 14

>>8211431
I hope it's not another Phantasmagoria.
