Life in the Eastern Fantastic Land

So quickly time flies and now it's already September.

Sometime this August, Singapore Toy, Game and Comic Convention (STGCC) put up an online notice saying that White Canvas was participating and that they were selling Touhou T-shirts, bags, ...

I suddenly remembered a very important reason to continue blogging. It seems that in the pursuit of a higher journalistic ideal I have forgotten the most important reason of this blog: to log my own memories. I became obssessed with newsworthiness and failed to realise that significant things are never spontaneously made, they are the sum of many small but beautiful things. Just like Touhou.

On top my recent post translating the text of th13's announcement, due to the juicy details offered within, I have decided to spend some time analysing the tantalising images that ZUN has offered us in his blog post.

Note. though, that ZUN offered a disclaimer at the end of his post to discourage unrealistic expectations.

As I rightly predicted in my previous post, ZUN has announced the Reitaisai8 release of 東方神霊廟(Touhou Shinreibyou)　～ Ten Desires, trial version,

It's been about 2 years since It happened. While I don't remember the exact date in which It happened, I roughly recall that It happened sometime before the release of TH12 and TH12.3, yet that sometime is also unknown. Somewhere in between being awed by Anipix's PV Kaze of COOL&CREATE'S The Fastest Highest Shutter Girl(最速最高シャ&#...

I come to you, at a time when no posts have been made for the better part of a quarter of the year. What have I been doing, you ask. Well, mostly university work although that's not a good excuse not to update your blog. I have some videos, of course. Been through quite a bit in last few months. More after the jump!

Touhou is greater part of my life now more than ever. I just hope this passion doesn't fade out like some of my older interests. Thankfully the derivatives meet many of m...

ZUN has announced the latest addition to the Touhou Project games, Touhou Sangetsusei - Yousei Daisensou(Great Fairy Wars). The gameplay mechanics have yet to be precisely revealed.

In this game, Cirno starts the great fairy war against the 3 protagonists of the Touhou Sangetsusei series. Gameplay is centered on the ⑨Cirno who has the ability to freeze bullets(Wow, why didn't anyone think of that before!) from ...
