Title: So what is this Touhou Project?
Post by: Sakis01 on October 12, 2009, 09:13:42 pm
I've seen it many times before, cosplay ideas, icons, etc., and I have no idea what it's about. Anybody willing to inform me?

The Touhou project is a series of Bullet Hell Shoot em up games with shrine maidens instead of ships.

This is a screenshot of the most popular game, Perfect Cherry Blossom:

Interesting, so they're games and not anime/manga or anything?

I've heard the games are really fun, but I haven't played them yet. I saw a touhou manga thing at Kinokuniya last time I was there. I cosplay from touhou, and mostly get info from Kit2kit about it and I also read about the characters on touhou wiki.

Wiki sounds like a great idea. Why didn't I think of that before? >.>
