I'll start: I kissed a boy in 5th grade.
I read bad touhou fanfiction taking periodic breaks to do abdominals and push-ups to pass the time.
I don't know either
I am apart of a silly fashion called lolita.
I ask for links to Touhou fanfics online.
I write Touhou fanfiction.
I write Touhou translations.
I didn't know you could hold shift+fire in Double Spoiler to make your camera charge faster. I made it to level 4-1 without realizing this.
I still call some Touhous by the stage number they appear in rather than their silly name.
I touched a kids junk, liberally in 6th grade.
I roleplay Suwako Moriya in a Touhou forum RP and I've become obsessed to a point where my opinion of all Touhou characters are in like with Suwako's and I have a strange attraction to frogs now.
I like touhou and other STG games despite sucking at them and usually dying easily in them.
I kinda like, kinda hate Touhou.
I'm a terrible person.
While I do enjoy the Touhou games, I dislike the fanboyism and the fact that 90% of all fanart/hentai on Pixiv is Touhou. I also hate the people that fawn over the Touhou characters but have never actually played the game.
I want to put the tohou down the toto.
I was just playing the extra thingy in touhou: imperishable night. I must say that I suck.
I post on dqn.
I do like Touhou! I mean, whats not to like about a giant lizards walking around destroying cities and fighting other giant monsters?
I use a cell phone that is basically built to make phone calls only.
Also I have nothing toho related on the cell phone.
I once paid an escort to dress up like Reimu and let me rub my dick on her armpits.
My phone is filled with Kamen Rider sounds.
I use a cell phone that is basically built to do everything except make phone calls.
Why is it that I feel like I've read >>48 before, except maybe a little differently?
Sometimes I have my uncle dress up as Nelson Mandela and watch pornography in my living room.
If I posted the details it would be quite lengthy and probably un-VIP due to its seriousness, but let's just say that I live a fairly hedonistic lifestyle based around a network of very elaborate lies. Even that could be a lie. I'm not entirely sure anymore.
>>52
That's funny, the most important thing in my life is one big, perfectly crafted lie that I'm starting to believe myself.
>>52
Sounds quite like me!
Except the lie is becoming real enough over the years.
Oh, good. It seems I'm not the only one who has lies that may or may not be lies...
I want Anna Didovic to be my girlfriend
I really want to watch the new Touhou anime
Quick analysis of why Touhou is popular using Hiroki Azuma's analysis of otaku culture:
Modern wotaku culture is based on elements of moe. Modern wotaku love elements of moe within things but they do not fall in love with particular stories or "grand narratives" anymore. Wotaku are addicted to what Azuma terms "simulcra" (a piece of or element of something or a recreation a "simulation" of something, but not a whole narrative).
That is to say, the original Gundam had a very clear canon story that could not be altered. In modern times we have many off shoots of Gundam, both canon and not canon. For modern wotaku the "truth" of a particular storyline is not important, what is important is the fact that there are Zakus, Gundams, Princess characters, Amuro characters, etc. etc. The pieces or "simulcra" are what the wotaku directly look at. If a series or doujin or story has enough of these elements it will be popular with wotaku. This is why things such as Kanon can become popular. The characters and story within Kanon is all pulled from the "moe database." It is so generic and such a compilation of these elements that it becomes immediately popular. It itself is created as a doujinwork which itself is already in some sense "noncanon."
Using this idea, Touhou is the granddaddy of simulcra. There isn't even a real story behind it. The entirety of Touhou is created, even the modern representations of Touhou characters are not the originals, but it doesn't matter. That's WHY it is so popular. The original game contains a bare minimum of ANYTHING other than simulcra. The original drawings are completely ridiculous, but they are moe elements boiled down to the most simple possible form. A form which can be expanded and changed and recreated by different artists, and take on even more value because of that.
That is why Touhou is popular. I did a horrible job explaining it, but read Hiroki Azuma's book for a more complete picture (which is actually written BEFORE Touhou, and basically predicts it).

I hate Touhou, yet I'm a total [^. Do you have an explanation for that?
I ``feel"like this thread is somehow only reflecting uTouhouv .
However, my darkest secret:
I always thought it meant "Western Otaku."
>>65
Absolutely riveting. I can now wonder no more where these GENERIC, BORING shows/games/comics/etc originate from and how they become so popular.
Good thing I only enjoy shows/games/comics that are completely original, pretentious, super deep, and have at least 2-3 subplots anyway.
I don't know if I'm more surprised that someone actually wrote an entire book about something so obvious or that someone actually bothered to read it.
Back on topic: I once rubbed my dick on my own armpits while I was dressed up like Reimu
>>72
It doesn't mean Western Otaku. It's the common Japanese term for what we call otaku. So saying wotaku basically implies that we are strictly referring to hardcore moe/anime otaku living in Japan.

The book is actually very in depth and it's conclusions really aren't obvious. It is done by a postmodern critical theorist who focuses on pop culture (Hiroki Azuma). It's a great read, very interesting if you care at all about this kind of stuff.

Oh, and the link to the book itself: http://www.amazon.com/Otaku-Database-Animals-Hiroki-Azuma/dp/0816653526
The w is silent, it's just used as an alternate spelling, Nip net speak.
I was molested as a 2 or 3 year old, but I don't remember it.

I tried to have gay sex with my 25 year old autistic, epileptic brother when I was in the 5th grade.
I threw up on the floor.
I think that Utsuho is really moé.
Sometimes, I sit to pee.
I have done that too. Sometimes I go poop in urinals.
I only go pee sitting down when I'm going poop.
i'm a noob and this is my first post here
I'd bone my cousin.
