Touhou will stay forever. It's like pokemon. You can't kill it anyway. People will still draw EoSD forever because that was the game they loved. And the newer ones will always get liked, even if they have some problems. People still recognize cirno and reimu and stuff, and even the newer ones like clownpiss, hecatia, and aunn.

EoSD is popular in fanworks because it's statistically most popular game (i.e., the first game people get), and making fanworks further fuels people being familiar with those characters. Especially notable when people want to use characters seen as series staples; they're going to be EoSD just because everyone knows them.

Western fanbase are not relevant m8, especially on 4chan. Junko and Hecatia got a lot of fanarts and doujins, H and non-H. Not to mention Sagume was in top 20 of popularity poll, which means she beats majority of the cast.

Alright, I don't understand this statement. How is LoLK gameplay different I don't know let's say IN or SA?

Touhou isn't dying. Even if the new games were to all be shit (which they aren't yet) there's still years of material to go by.

The creative engine behind the touhou fandom is big enough that it doesn't need ZUN to survive. If you want to make this thread, wait until ZUN stopped making games and Reitaisai is canceled forever, then wait another 5 years and it'd be about the time that 2hu is starting to die.

There are periods where I lose interest too (I mean, I've been looking at 2hu shit for ~8 years) but there's always new material that sucks me right in. AFiEU is great and the comics are really, really nice. Maybe look at more official content? I just find 2hu so interesting...

I'd probably agree that the production of fan material has slowed down considerably in recent years. Many good artists and content creators who used to obsess over 2hu have moved on to KanColle. Most of those "fans", however, are only loyal as long as the characters still manage to make their dicks hard. Not a good foundation for a healthy fan base anyway.

The Touhou franchise itself, on the other hand, is alive and well. With somewhat regular game releases (both main titles and spinoffs), book releases (AFiEU came out this spring) and 2 active comics (the 3rd one came to a close this summer), I'd say it's as active as it has ever been.

ZUN has mentioned that he'll probably keep doing this until the day he dies, regardless of whether people keep buying it or not.

Chasing down anon's posts is a waste of time and shows you have great interest in doing whatever the fuck it is you wish to accomplish, for no good reason, no real reward, and a rising urge to push it into the attention of others so you can get a response in hopes that someone thinks the same way you do.
Crossboarders aren't [usually] welcome, but there isn't a reason to point him out unless he is stirring shit up on a daily basis to get responses. This shouldn't be an issue considering we have mods. They'll handle it most times if you do just _one_ simple action.
