Touhou Game Club

Angel :
Hell, i like wasted all my bombs after i died against PrismRiver. I feel the need to do that since "Agh .. so COLORFUL ! Cannot see !" mood that time, lol.

Neo :
I haven't played IN .. !%&^!@&
and we sure have a different gameplay, lol. Youmu is easier because her danmakus are predictable (in front of me).

Lime :
Since you haven't playing the game at the time. I may made an exception, don't worry.

Wow...I'm not looking forward to that as all...

Announcement, People.

* Our green armpit shrine maiden will be the closing session for Moriya Family's arc

For the next things which will be on the spotlight.
Let's just say "Rabbit"

It's pretty fun... well, not when you have to die around 150 times (Wriggle) before you get it... Well, Touhou is fun because it's hard =P



Probably because, I don't why, but I get easily distracted and mislead by Youmu lolol, resulting in misreading the pattern and making a jackass move...

She can be hard, but she can also be really cute^^! With a Yuyuko bonus




Tewin? I mean, Tewi?! =D!!

This, so true.
As for your pics ....



Ohhhohooo, or maybe the rabbits from Moon capital ? who knows ;)

Now I can't wait to read it >.<

And I'll leave this here
Touhou Flash Animation - Rythm Heaven Parody

Wish it existed =(

On topic about PCB Youmoe and Prismriver sisters.

I personally find Prismsriver sister to be more annoying to beat than Youmoe. Mainly because their attack patterns differ depending on which character we used to face them.

Lunasa will be the main for Reimu; Merlin for Sakuya; and Lyrica for Marisa.
But they sure live up the tradition of difficulty jump for stage 4 boss though.

And Youmoe is...well she'll be easy to pass after you figured and get used with her pattern.

What do you guys use to play touhou, a controller or something?

I'm good at rpg and stuff but this is different D:

Keyboard and/or joystick. I'm mainly using joystick now; a PS2 controller-type USB jostick.

response:



i play touhou by keyboard. i do not know how to use the controller :(

I am so going to buy a usb ps2 controller D:

Remind me to kill you for that cute .swf, Neo.



I'd recommend iTech one. It's fairly cheap.

I use a gamepad when playing too. My palm aches when I use the keyboard..

I hoping for both of them, since I got some nice picture of them both.. that I like to share.

Might me Reisen Inaba Undongein or Tewi or Reisen II

Don't mess the order, Yama-chan ;)

I didn't mess it, I did it on purpose... Either I say Reisen U. Inaba... or Reisen Inaba, or just Undonge

I believe it's Reisen Udongein Inaba; in Japanese or Western, her name order stays same. just a little bit of info...

And oh, Yama, I see you're using direct hotlink for your image from gelbooru in this post which I quoted. Could you just upload the image to services like sadpanda, tinypic, photobucket, imagebam, or imagevenue? This is for our convenience too in the future.

This is a friendly reminder for all club members too.
If you're going to post image, upload it to services like I've mentioned above, it's for convenience of whole club too. :3

Article#10 : Sanae Kochiya, Embodiment of The Divine Wind[/font]

---

東風谷　早苗（こちや　さなえ）
[size=12]Sanae Kochiya (Sanae Kotiya)[/h]

Age : Probably mid-teens, about the same age as Reimu or Marisa

Species : Human, descendant of a goddess

Personalities : Playful, Loyal, Obedient, and an Otaku (Over-obsessed to mecha, aliens and stuffs) to the core

Abilities : Power to cause miracles to occur

Occupation : Wind Priestess, Shrine Maiden

First Appearance : Mountain of Faith ( Touhou 10.0 )

---

Sanae is a human, but is also a distant descendant of a god, Suwako Moriya. Her role at the Moriya Shrine is similar to a Shrine Maiden, but with her inherited power, Sanae has become more like a deity herself.

When she was young, Sanae had mastered the secrets to call upon miracles that had been passed down through her family. A young girl that could call upon the power of miracles would certainly collect great amounts of faith --- one would expect.

However, humans on the outside world began losing their faith in her and Kanako. Therefore, the shrine's actual deity, Kanako decided to move the shrine to Gensokyo where at least youkai might have faith in them.

During the events of Mountain of Faith Sanae tried threatening the Hakurei Shrine in order to establish the Moriya Shrine as the dominant one, not realizing how powerful humans like Reimu and Marisa were. In response to the threats Sanae was defeated by the heroine followed shortly after by Kanako and Suwako's defeat. However, the residents of the Moriya Shrine have since come to an understanding with their new neighbors and live in peace with the other residents of Youkai Mountain.

In Undefined Fantastic Object, depending on the scenario, she is ordered either by Kanako to train her own abilities by hunting Youkai or by Suwako to find the Treasure Ship, depending on this, her secondary bullet will become a snake or a frog.

In Touhou Hisoutensoku, thinking that a gigantic robot appeared in Gensokyo, she is in pursuit of the giant figure. She stumbles into a giant pit to the nuclear reactor run by Utsuho Reiuji. There, she learns that Suwako is responsible for creating the robot figure, Hisoutensoku.


Bunbunmaru Trivia

# Sanae can mean "rice seedling" or "early seedling", and Kotiya "eastern wind valley". (The same "east" as in Touhou, and the same "wind" as in Fuujinroku.)

# Since Sanae is originally from the outside world, some fans draw her in a schoolgirl uniform.

# Sanae's appearance in SA was unexpected by many. Due to that, the fact that she says "You can't worry about common sense in Gensokyo, right?", and her "Miracle Fruit" spell card sounding cute and girly while all of her other spell cards from MoF sound much more stoic has earned her the nickname of フルーツ（笑）(Fruit (lol)), based off the スイーツ（笑）(Sweets (lol)) label, referring to airheaded girls who follow fads without really understanding them. In other words, Sanae is seen as kind of a ditz.

# Also since the release of UFO and Hisoutensoku, Sanae's popular image has shifted from soft spoken and demure to markedly eccentric with her knowledge of robots, anime and enthusiasm for aliens. As you can see, here for example.

# Sanae's new-found aggressiveness towards youkai, particularly Kogasa, has earned her another nickname among Japanese fans, 絶対許早苗 (Zettai Yuru-Sanae), a pun off of 絶対許さない (Zettai Yurusanai, or absolutely unforgiving). This is usually combined with a picture of her smug expression from UFO against a yellow-and-red-striped background, which is a parody of a famous meme of Futaba Channel, "Maji-resu", a serious reply to a troll/joke post.

# In fact, there is an old lady named Sanae Moriya (守矢早苗), who is the 78th head of Moriya family. The family were supposed to succeed to one of the priests of the Suwa Grand Shrine, Jin Choukan (神長官, God Director). She was said to be a descendant of "Moreyashin" (洩矢神, the god Moreya), the first ancestor of the Moriya, according to the family tree located in the shrine. ("Moreya" is an archaic, alternate pronunciation of "Moriya")

# Sanae's sleeves are detached from her shirt, just like Reimu's. As a result, it is possible to use Sanae as the subject of the "armpit joke" rather than Reimu. However, Sanae armpit jokes are rare compared to Reimu armpit jokes.

# Sanae is often shown in fanart as rather large chested, resulting in many things from breast envy from Reimu to sideboob pictures (especially Sakuya).

# Since Sanae's outfit is similar to Reimu's, fans often refer to her as "Player 2 Reimu" or "2P Reimu", a character who, just like in most computer games, will take over Reimu's position if Reimu (as Player 1) is knocked out. With Reimu's red outfit and Sanae's green hair, there are even running gags equating the two shrine maidens with the Mario Brothers.

# "Sanae is a good girl" has surfaced as a meme, in the English speaking community, as a result of page 29 from one of Happy Flame Time's comics, entitled Cold Wind but Warm Winter.

# Some of her dialog in Undefined Fantastic Object has caused fans to depict her as being extremely enthusiastic about youkai extermination. In short, Sadistic.

# Some Western Touhou fans have noticed that when Sanae moves horizontally in UFO, her pose resembles Superman.

# One of Sanae's spell cards in Hisoutensoku strongly resembles Shin Akuma's "Misogi" from Capcom vs. SNK

# Sanae is the only Windows Extra Stage mid-boss (Subterranean Animism) who hasn't appeared as a boss before in the specific game.

# Similar to Yukari, Sanae uses characters she's related to (Kanako and Suwako) as spell cards. However, unlike Yukari, Sanae uses characters who are her masters instead of servants.

# In her last stage of Touhou Hisoutensoku, despite the fact that Sanae is fighting against Suwako, Sanae can still use skills summoning Suwako to her aid (e.g. Using Summon Earth's God: Metal Ring, to attack Suwako, etc.)

# In Mountain of Faith, one of Sanae's Spellcards (Sea Opening "The Day the Sea Split") is a similar copy of Alice's Second Attack in Mystic Square Extra Stage.

# In Touhou Hisoutensoku Sanae's Character Portrait shows her having blue eyes, her sprite however, has yellow eyes
