[url=#user_comment_15843]@A[/url] what reason do you have to hate touhou it's more sucsesful then your life it's a good bullet hell shooter, graphics are the best any bullet hell shooter game has, if you hate bullet hell shooters cause their too hard for your gaming life then no reason to say it sucks you just suck at that game

@ Anon:
Given the world that this arc is set in, ALL the characters are actual people, NOT videogame characters.
It can't be the actual Touhou character, it would break the thing the artist is going for.
(Don't spread the Touhou crazyness too much, It's already getting all over the place)

Unfortunately I found nothing that was satisfactory.
But now, If you spend even a minute on googling for "Touhou" you'll find about 1,200,000 relevant sites that will explain "What is Touhou?"

Also to everyone who don’t get what Touhou is. While I understood how do you feel (I was like that on the "New content" comic), I googled as much as I could before I asked: "wtf is this? I don’t get it".

@Marcus: It's ok. I appreciate everything You've done for all of us so far.
I also wanted to ask You abut something Mr. Author. Are there any chances that there will be Touhou Arc or at least some "bonus" or "surprise" comics as those abut WoW?
Ok, this is what Touhou is all about p. 3
over 15 years ago
It´s hard to get your hands on a legitimate copy of a Touhou game here in the west, so you´ll probably have to resort to sites like the pirate bay or other filesharing sites for downloads.
Ok, this is what Touhou is all about p. 1

Touhou is a series of hardcore danmaku vertically-scrolling shoot ´em ups. Basicaly, you control a sweet, innocent-looking anime loli, avoiding huge masses of projectiles while still needing to take out your enemies.

@ HeavyTank:
Touhou is a bullet hell series of shooting games, which are very high in difficulty and pretty hardcore on the higher difficulties. Really, the only games that could be considered harder are things like Contra, Mushihimesama and old "nintendo hard" nes games such as Ghosts 'n' Goblins.

The WH40K space marine is happy about a witch near his son. She's Eldar, I tell you! Kill the xeno!
I really liked this arc. It puts the whole debate in a neat perspective.
@BrainXaber: Sorry you're experiencing this. I've made a couple of changes to NerfNOW Beta, so hopefully these problems will be gone when the beta site launches (next week or so).

Umm... Jo please fix his commenting script... Even if I write around 250 characters this script still tells me to write no more then 300 characters. Also why does I get "3 photo notes are enough for anyone! -- Bill Gates, circa 1981." When I did not add any photo note yet?

Not many people understood WoW related jokes and I know that probably even less people will understand Touhou related comics but I'd love to see more Touhou on NerfNow. Just my little hope.

Also, why does Marisa have white hair?

Touhou is a bullet-hell shooter. If you're going to get a good score, you're going to need crazy reflexes for minute movements.
