At first I thought it was some narcissistic prank from Yakumo, but looking closer I found it to be impossible. Gold is one of the densest materials around, if you've ever held a gold coin or bar you'd be immediately surprised by it's weight compared to it's size. Weight however, does not create strength... A knife made of solid gold would be bent after serving a single slice of cake!"

Touhou Addict Recovery Center / The Philosophy of ZUN
« Last post by SeroVich on Yesterday at 03:09:41 AM »It could be not only how he makes games, but also how he view games, what are his ideals, and how he views life itself. I'll answer first, since I want to put something substantial in this topic.
I like to think that he really likes to make the games in a 'take-it-easy' attitude, proven how simple the games are. I think his philosophy in game design is that it's better to make things simple that "works" than a complex game where you can't even complete.
So, based on how he makes game, I think his view in life is that it's okay to enjoy the simple parts of life, than worrying every moment of life that's complicated, as the only thing we could do to live a content life is not to worry to much and enjoy the simple aspects of life.

Arrogant, overestimating his "know item's name" ability and spewing nonsense about their origin he just comes up with, swindled Marisa out of an artifact, made Youmu work to get back an item that was hers and which was causing trouble for him anyway. Also a subject of unearned amount of fandom attention purely on basis of being the only notable and attractive official male character.
I hate that he basically mistreated Youmu by forcing her to work under the freezing cold with literally no covering. That guy is a goddamn psycho just like (almost) everyone else in Touhou

Her hitbox is absolutely tiny, especially compared to her entire sprite, and her first phase is horrible. At least the rest of the fight isn't too bad, but it doesn't make up for the pain she has caused me every time I choose Jigoku.

Touhou Addict Recovery Center / Characters you absolutely cannot stand
« Last post by Vance_croowa_08 on November 08, 2024, 09:46:12 PM »One of the most frequently asked questions in the Touhou fandom is probably "what's your favourite character?". Well in this topic it's gonna be the opposite. What's your LEAST favourite character? Which one do you dislike/hate the most? It can be more than one!
I'll start with mine
I don't like Aya, i really don't. She's a fraud who publishes fake news a distorts reality and facts to her favor and also engages in fear mongering, she does it without feeling a gram of regret. Now you'll say "that's the point of her character" and i understand that, but it doesn't excuse the fact that she's a huge bastard. But you wanna know what really pushed me to dislike her? Her interview with Cirno. It's so, so mean-spirited, it feels like Aya intentionally made the article just to humiliate Cirno, this is evident when she admits that she wrote the article simply because she felt like it, not for any reason in particular. This is just messed up. She got a bit of redemption in AFoEU, but it's still not enough to make me like her
