I come to you today /jp/ with a rather backwards request.

I want to leave the Touhou fandom. For all intents and purposes, the Touhou fandom is at this moment the very equivalent of the Naruto fandom at the heights (depths?) of its unbelievable idiocy. Fans are alternatively elitists, roleplayers, lol randum xD, giddy memespamming idiots, or some or all of the above.
The fandom has basically fleshed out the fan view of the characters, and like the fandom, they are entirely one-dimensional. Sakuya is paddo janai xD, Alice is SOO TSUNDERE, Ran is a pedophile, Yuyuko is a glutton, and so on. It has gotten to the point where I can't even look my wife in the eyes any more without seeing this... taint.

It's even following me into my other interests. Just the other day I came across a TF2 server where half (in a 24 player server) were playing "house" with each other, roleplaying as various touhou characters.

My question, finally, is this: Where else can a soul-less dreg like myself find his kicks and waste his time? VNs? Other shmups? I look to you for guidance, /jp/.

Although it is an odd request, I'd suggest going with some VNs.

But I'm sorry you feel this way. Such is the fate of an open-ended series like Touhou, that all the idiots would gobble up anything that amuses them.

It is a cancer that follows me to the very ends of the earth. Even from the games, I'm getting the vibe that ZUN is only producing them now because they ARE popular, I suppose similar to how the Naruto series dragged (is dragging?) along way longer than it has any business doing so because of the popularity. Maybe this is colored by my hatred of the fandom. I'll still play some of the games, sure, but since I'll try to be avoiding the fandom as much as possible, I need to fill that time in.

Some do. It's very rare though, and they usually get flushed down very quickly.

I once made a topic about Ran that wasn't about her being pedo for Chen or SUPATENKO or anything. It went for about 20 replies.

16 of those replies were myself.

It's not really that bad though, talking to yourself about the Touhouverse is a pretty fun way to get different views about the same character.

You talk about the "fandom" like it's a club where you have to attend twice a week and pay dues and carry a membership card around.

It's okay to like something even if a lot of faggots like it. Even better; it gives you the chance to be an elitist about yet another thing. I honestly don't see what your problem is here.

Yes, but you can't group all Touhou doujinshi into that category.

Anyways, a lot of it didn't necessarily originate from doujinshi, but doujinshi (and /jp/) certainly beat the jokes into the ground. And into a rotten, bloody pulp.

But again, not all doujinshi is like that, and there's plenty for people with varying tastes.

On the same line, some of the jokes really aren't terrible in doujinshi given that the execution is fine and it isn't completely presented in a retarded manner. Well, PADDO was always fucking terrible in all doujins I've seen it in, but Yuyuko being a glutton isn't too bad at all when they just use it lightly, and don't force it.

That's how I always saw it.

Acts like an older sister to Chen, responsible subordinate to Yukari that tries to do too much herself. Analytical. Overestimates her own ability enough to get into a scuffle with the miko by herself. Almost sage-like, but nowhere near as whimsical as Yukari.

>Arguments break out because of different interpretations on characters.
More like arguments break out because people are morons. All it takes is a simple correction if a person's interpretations goes way off canon. From there, they can just disregard canon, or revise their idea to match canon. Or if canon is fuzzy and there's no concrete proof for anything, you just simply have to accept it as is, and try to make some reasonable deductions. thing is, you won't be able to prove them wrong, but it's still fun to discuss.

I don't know why it works so well for Umineko. People present their theories, and if their theory contradicts a red truth, the red truth is brought up, and the theories may be changed. But if that red truth is vague enough to be interpreted in more than one way, and the other person's idea corresponds to their own idea of the red truth, people typically just let it slide, and we just keep discussing ideas.

It works for Umineko because there's a mystery to solve involving all the characters and it's some damn serious business with people getting killed. In that sense, Touhou isn't really "about" anything - you've just got the characters. There's nothing wrong with that, but it does lend itself to the kind of wild character interpretations you see sometimes.

Also the fact that there isn't much in the way of canon characterization

True. But I think it shall soon come to pass. Trolls doing that will get tired of it and newfriends that think it's a meme /jp/ likes will catch on. I do think /jp/ is better though. Our Touhou threads are pretty much wildcards. It can either get into a deep discussion about characters or plot(inb4 what plot) or turn into doujin dumps and sources. Or perhaps the thread takes an entirely different direction and goes into funny roleplay mode. Who knows. But with poolshmr it's always business.

All fandoms suck. I play Touhou because I like playing it, not because I like other people who play it. Do your own doing and fuck what everyone else is doing.

If you want to kill sometime, play Touhou, other shmups, VNs anything.

More importantly out of all of this though, is that you're an attention whore.

I just read doujins as they're released and browse pixiv/danbooru for images. /jp/'s useful to let me know when new Touhou material is out. That's pretty much it. There's really no need to associate yourself with the meme spewing crowd, whether you're playing the games themselves, or enjoying fan material.

>the majority of people are idiots
This is something I read a lot and I always agree. However, each and every one of the people who post this doesn't seem to be aware that they are on the majority.

What makes you think that you're any better than anyone else from the fandom you want to separate yourself of?
If the answer is anything but 'nothing', then be aware that believing that makes you more stupid than them, Why? Simple: not only you're a retard, but a retard on denial.

tl;dr: is stupid to think that fans can detract any good thing of anything simply by associating with it.

> But with poolshmr it's always business

I'm not sure about that. I always got a more relaxed vibe from pooshlmer, excepting certain times when there's some kind of mass, board wide shitstorm or a rash of rampant board policing taking place. Sure, there's a rather strict "X goes into X thread" system going, but stuff like that also keeps the board from getting flooded with "SAUCE ON PORN????". This is especially important, since the board has no moderation.

Pooshlmer generally gives off a funny vibe. Like a "we're so much more mature than you" sort of feeling that's funny because if they really have to insist on that, they probably aren't. That's missing the point, though. This whole argument is getting old.

Haha, well, that is because /jp/ is full of socially retarded manchildren who have yet to realize that maturity does not entail calling everyone else immature as often as possible. It's something you'll have to live with.

>>2827547

Everybody on /jp/ loves to roleplay! Chances are if you leave two Anons alone they'll start roleplaying automatically, based on characters mentioned in the thread. It happens every day. Or sometimes there are VN threads in which OP writes as he goes and people play along.

4chan isn't the wisest place for such things, so I usually...don't. Mostly because the threads move too fast and people can interrupt you with silly thngs.

How so? I'm merely drawing on the 'Interactive VN' threads, the popularity of roleplaying Umineko(LOL RED TEXT), and of course the trip user Beatrice, whom everyone addressed as being the honest-to-god Golden Witch. Also, the games with Lambdadelta.

Let me guess, is that the Gensokyo where youkai will actually eat you and people are often dying in horrific ways?

Also, I would estimate that ten percent of /jp/ honestly hates roleplaying, and their vocal nature makes them seem much more than they actually are. The rest are merely trolls of the same nature as the ones who go "LOL ANIMU FAGGOTS" on a board that has absolutely nothing to with such things.
