Yes. Anyone who says Haruhi is baka gaijin.

Gundam and EVA having a good story?
What drugs is this guy taking? Also, no.

Haruhi

[Anonymous No.]

Touhou actually encourages creativity, as the fans themselves have to make up for the lack of exposition. Gundam and Eva fans are just a bunch of circlejerkers.

In Japan, not from Japan?

Hmm... even then, I don't think Touhou is as influential as major animes anywhere. Do you have comparative numbers of something relevant to back that up?

[Anonymous No.]

>>6390593
By the time Rozen Maiden got big (anime release) Touhou was already an unstoppable rape machine. RM never even came close.

I don't think so, Tim.

I would say dragon ball Z was the most influential of the late 90s early 00s.

There are statistics on the number of doujinshi released, look for them. Touhou rapes the entire competition.

well, do we mean "influential on otaku culture" or "the part of otaku culture which has the most influence on modern japanese culture?" the topic mentioned in the op, which is what i was basing my statement off of, is a little ambiguous.

it's hard to believe that touhou is a near-household name like the other things mentioned in the op, but I suppose it's not outside the realm of possibility either.

>>6390769
Do you have any franchise (manga/anime/game/etc you name it) that dominates 2/3 of Comikets and have its own convention, twice, every year? And then there are conventions for just a single game (SA in Osaka I think), it's as if a convention for Touhou as a whole is not enough.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6390792
er, and what i was getting at by that is that(correct me if i'm wrong) doujin count doesn't exactly reflect the sway it holds on the general japanese populace.

On the other hand, it may be just the guys from the music collection panicking. Reitaisai 2010 was the biggest ever, by a wide margin.

>>6390903
If there's a reduction in music, I'm not sure where it is, because all the circles I pay attention to have been churning out albums sometimes 2 at a time.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6390903

I know the guy who collects it; it's just a joke, nothing more. There seems to have been a slowdown in collecting albums from Share lately, which might be related. There's also the fact that the most recent TLMC release date was at an awkward time; before most Reitaisai SP albums were collected, and before C79.

[Anonymous No.]

Most influential? Get rid of Touhou and add either Rozen Maiden or Haruhi.

Also, /a/.

I'm assuming it's probably a mistranslation and it's supposed to be "for females", regardless of actual porn content.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6390984
Actually i wouldn't be surprised if it was all gay porn.

Apparently japanese guys can't stand porn that doesn't have a dick in it but the women love their faggotry.

Ever notice the sheer volume of stuff that caters to yaoi compared to yuri?

[Anonymous No.]

>>6390990
Yes, most porn for fujioshi is yaoi, but my point was:

- not all of it is porn, some are non-pornographic man-on-man love or even lack any content of this kind (compare the count for Reborn: 700 porn titles compared to 1700 "yaoi" ones)
- futa is for men and therefore is not included in this count
