What does /jp/ feel about ESR? Surely someone here must have heard of it.

For those of you who don't know, it's a VN with Marisa as the protagonist, and she's trying to become immortal.

I'm rather indifferent about the art, but I just wish I could court Koishi or Nitori. I'm not the biggest fan of Reimu, Flandre, Alice, or Patchouli.

This is wrong on so many levels, I try not to be one of those THATS NOT CANON HURR faggots, but this is like trying to make Mokou into a stuttering tsundere.

Well, it takes place after her father dies (not that she would really give a shit in canon, but still). I'm pretty sure you can stop her from becoming immortal if you play it, but I'm more interested in courting Koishi than any other aspect of the game. This is the only visual novel, as far as I know, that features our lovable Freud-loli.

Stupid faggot who deserves his cerebral palsy. Now if only they'd take his guns away so he can cry about how the evil suits are ruining his hacker freedomz.

I'm sorry, I don't follow. If you would be so kind, could you fill me in, kind anon? Any information would be helpful.

I'm not sure what your point is, but Marisa is, in fact, canonically trying to become immortal.

Touhou is a collaborative project, there is no "canon".

Not the anon you were talking to, but wasn't she trying to in IN? Or even just increase her lifespan?
I don't think Marisa really wants to become 'immortal', but I'm pretty sure she at least wants to live longer than she normally would.

I can't play this game because of the art. It looks very, VERY terrible. Why couldn't they make everyone cute?

Yeah, but the art has gotten better with each update. I don't think it's going to get much better, but I don't mind, really. It was enjoyable as it was. Some pieces didn't even look that bad. Overall, it's a step above DeviantArt/Drawfag thread level, which is good enough for me.

ZUN is going for a different route.

Eh, either way, this game was made before it got retconned, and it takes place right after SA. Besides, if there weren't non-cannon routes, it wouldn't be as entertaining.

>> No.8833444

>>8833437

I think your misusing the word "retcon."

You can create an excellent story with canon.

>> No.8833461

>>8833444
I'm not arguing that you can't, but ignoring certain parts of canon can end up making it even better, or ruin it. It's not like anyone can do anything about it if someone does decide to ignore something that is 'canon', though.

PCB.

But well, disregard that, I just checked, and it looks like translation making stuff up to me.

She says she likes the idea in IN, though.

>> No.8833585

>>8833570
The PCB character descriptions say this about Marisa:
On another topic, the elixir of immortality she had been developing during the winter ended up being too large for consumption. More improvement is required.

She was also quite interested by the immortally mentioned by Kasen.
