Alright /jp/. All your talk about Touhou got me bothered enough to try the game (pic related) and it's pretty fun and addictive, but:
In the game they really don't explain too much about what the hell is going on, and i wonder, where do you people get your information about the story?

>>	None !SoAoGU5XjA Mon Apr 20 15:24:05 2009 No.2459259 We basically make it all up as we go.

There is a .txt and/or a .html file that is in the game folder.

It includes the foreword/afterword, general story.
The translated version is on

>>	Anonymous Mon Apr 20 15:30:05 2009 No.2459290 ZUN actually encourages people making shit up. There are some differences with his take on a character and the "fanon" image, though. Say, canon Alice is an arrogant bitch that doesn't give a shit about the entire world, fanon Alice craves attention.

>>	Anonymous Mon Apr 20 15:32:05 2009 No.2459300 >>2459282 Found it. LOL, like my moonrunes can comprehend to THAT. Anyway, thanks people. Also, is it even possible to finish the game without dying to get that good end?!

>>	Anonymous Mon Apr 20 15:32:05 2009 No.2459303 There is no story. You play as a little girl who flies around to shoot fairies and other little girls.

>>	None !KYON.wwv9s Mon Apr 20 15:32:05 2009 No.2459306 >>2459290 >arrogant bitch That would fit Tenshi better. Alice is a loner, but isn't she friendly towards humans?

>>	Anonymous Mon Apr 20 15:33:05 2009 No.2459312 >>2459300 duh.

>>2459290
Canon Alice makes a lot of dolls. She doesn't sell them or hold shows in town. She was born as a youkai magician.

The magician that appears before people during festivals and displays her street performances with dolls would be Alice Margatroid. She's the type of magician that was originally human and became one through training.

>>	Anonymous Mon Apr 20 15:37:05 2009 No.2459345 >>2459306 Well, at least in the game she kind of came off as a bitch ("Puny shrine maiden, your powers are a mere two-sevenths of mine! But enough talk, have at you!" )

>>	Anonymous Mon Apr 20 15:43:05 2009 No.2459374 >>2459345 So, wait, no, you're saying that Alice is a bitch because she was being unfriendly to Reimu? Well, how should I put this... Reimu's not exactly the most likeable person in Gensokyo, you know.

>>	Anonymous Mon Apr 20 15:47:05 2009 No.2459403 >>2459374 I think it's more related to the mindset of the average Gensokyo resident ("I'm bored, so let's go shoot some bitches down the sky for a change")

>>	None !KYON.wwv9s Mon Apr 20 15:48:05 2009 No.2459408 >>2459374 To be fair, looks like Alice has some grudge against Reimu. Calling her a bitch, even spiking those voodoo straw dolls behind the shrine while avoiding the question of who was the subjectof the curse. Suspicious.

>>	Anonymous Mon Apr 20 15:49:05 2009 No.2459413 >>2459408 Well, Reimu pretty much destroyed Makai. I'd say Alice has a good reason to bear a grudge.

>>	Anonymous Mon Apr 20 15:54:05 2009 No.2459428 >>2459300 Yes, it is possible. But very, very hard. It took me two weeks before I could 1cc Imperishable Night on normal, and over a month before I could do it on Embodiment.

>>	Anonymous Mon Apr 20 16:37:05 2009 No.2459685 Play PCB or IN instead, EoSD is crusty old shit.

>>	Anonymous Mon Apr 20 16:39:05 2009 No.2459690 >>2459685 Play SA, it's the best Touhou. PCB has boring slow patterns and laggy controls, IN has ridiculously long counterbombing interval.
