leather fedora posted:It's a listening CD for a Touhou-themed English textbook that I wrote and a bunch of artists illustrated. The CDs are recordings of the books read by native English speakers so it gives people who don't know English a better reference as to what words sound like. I listened to the first two chapters and now I want this CD.

Kasen may be the most boring Oni but i am excited for her to be playable. I wonder what they'll do for her attacks, there's not a lot to go on besides animal summoning.

CommissarMega posted:But seriously, am I the only one getting a Keine vibe from that? She does have a weird hat, but I don't think it's quite the same weird hat. I can see the vibe though. In motion, she looks quite different from anyone else, although maybe it's just an old character wearing a new hat, like Byakuren's hat in HM. Kasen basically just summons all the pets we've seen she has in the manga. She has her eagle, her tiger, and even her Raijuu. I assume the dragon will be one of her currently locked spellcards (she only gets one, while Reimu and Marisa get three). We're back to IaMP level character customization: just choose your spellcard before the battle starts.

All I know about that is that one picture of him dressed as Lily White and as far as I could tell it was just an artist messing around for no reason.

It's kinda silly but if ZUN hadn't released that one three track CD alongside SSIB the whole moon arc probably wouldn't have happened, would it? I kinda wonder when his next CD is actually.

To be fair, wasn't ZUN pretty surprised by Mima's popularity when he went to that one con in the USA? It's not like it's impossible that a ghost would return in a game ostensibly about ghost stories. Good profile icon choice either way, though.

Her animal friends help out, but it is usually a tiger who shows up through a portal.

Does anyone know if Kasen's theme is in the demo? It's hard to tell if the music when you fight her is supposed to be her theme, or if it is just generic fightgames background music.

Nages posted:Her animal friends help out, but it is usually a tiger who shows up through a portal. According to the manual, she has four animals: Kanda the Eagle, Mukou the Raijuu, Houso the Tiger, and a Dragon which doesn't show up in the demo. Presumably it's one of her missing spellcards. Gameplay-wise the tiger is forward special, the eagle is up special, and the raijuu is down special.

So I recently got into playing midis again and finally got myself a few Roland Synths, among others the SC-88 which is quite close to what Zun used (SC-8850), at least on the earlier games. So you all remember when the demos came with midi files, thought it sounded like crap and then just switched to the WAVs once you got the full versions? Well it turns out the midis actually does sound rather OK if you got decent hardware: Imperishable Night - Voyage 1969 in flac recorded off of my Roland SC-88. I've always liked this one and the piano samples sounds quite good on the 88. Granted, it doesn't sound as good as the WAV but it's not that far off and it might be even closer if I got myself a SC-88Pro. If you do a search for touhou and midi on youtube you'll pretty much just end up with bad synthesia so I thought it would be fun to post this.

Golden Battler posted:This is actually really cool, kinda surprised me to hear how good it sounded. What is really cool though is emulating the 1-6 games and play the midi through the synths, It's almost as playing 7 and on with WAVs. I could record a few more if it is of any interest but then again there are good arrangements of the first games and to be honest the WAVs sounds better on 7-9. Also for some content, mah meager stash!

amuayse posted:Just curious, are there any characters based on non-Eastern mythological figures? Not a character per sé, but Remilia's pet chupacabra is from South America. Elliotw2 posted:Sekibanki Sekibanki's a bit of a weird case because everything refers her as a rokurokubi and her long snake-like bullets are meant to represent the rokurokubi's elongated necks, but still pulls a Dullahan. But then again ZUN occasionally mixes mythologies, like Yoshika being initially a Jiang Shi, then ending up more zombie-like and having a mummy-like theme.
