For a while, I have been thinking of a nice way to “organize” my top favorite Touhou characters… and so I decided to apply some self-imposed rules: There will be 8 characters, like your typical Buta album. Each one will also have her own Ane art. So, let’s get started! Sanae Kochiya On every Touhou Popularity Poll, one has to… Read more »
I’ve teased this type of post in the Best 5 review, and I need to write some more reviews (while working on an album review that will be published next month). Covers. A popular type of song that refers to when an artist records/plays their own take of a song by another artist. A lot of artists started their journey… Read more »
Today we are going to talk about Touhou mobile games, with a focus on a certain one that will shut down in a few months. Since BUTAOTOME is involved in most of these, it’s a topic related to this website. Grab some cold tea, it’s gonna be a long post! Touhou Danmaku Kagura – The End Touhou Danmaku Kagura by… Read more »
New BUTAOTOME album, new pre-release commentary! Album page Juushin. Beast god. To start off, I wanna tell you that this title can be accurately translated into Italian as “dio bestia”. :a_wild_cannarsi_appeared: If it wasn’t for the fact that I dislike profanities, I would eternally refer to the album with this name. This album is centered on greed, and “the obsession… Read more »
Oooooh, welcome to this new pre-review! After 2 years, a physical Comiket is finally happening, and BUTAOTOME is going to release their smallest album ever. An Hifuu-only album consisting of two new songs and two new versions of old tracks. This C99 is gonna have some very good Hifuu stuff, with a new ZUN CD and also the upcoming Diao… Read more »
…by someone who is playing the game! This is a review I started writing yesterday. I just felt like talking more in-depth about this long-awaited Touhou game on Tiramisu Cowboy! Touhou Danmaku Kagura (in short, DanKagu) is a mobile rhythm game developed and published by Unknown X (a supergroup consisting of AQUASTYLE, DeNA, and xeen). Like a lot of other… Read more »
Before starting, I want to tell you that this post is divided into two parts. The first one is a rant about how I am disappointed that a certain theme is not in the album, and you are free to skip it (I admit myself it’s pretty stupid), the second one is the proper analysis. Prepare yourself, because it’s a… Read more »
After losing my soul on Touhou Cannonball’s latest event (there is a new Pig instrumental, woohoo!), and dissing on the newly released Touhou Lost Word because it doesn’t work on my phone as well as 50 android emulators and most of its music is not new/made for the game (the BUTAOTOME tracks are basically random Nekokenban songs), I finally have… Read more »
So, my original plan was a plain Shoujo Rengoku 5 commentary in the similar vein of the one I wrote for Ese Souretsu Shinan. But a piece of sad news overshadowed the new albums. Paprika will leave BUTAOTOME this year. You can read her translated message about this here. It’s news that greatly shocked me, and I’m still shocked now…. Read more »
A post I just wanted to write. I’m very hyped about this album, and I think the last time I was genuinely excited about a BUTAOTOME vocal release was with Trauma Recorder. Or Daihinmin. Anyway! So, why am I so excited about Ese Souretsu Shinan? Well, because BUTAOTOME VIOLET DETECTOR IS REAL, the curse has ended, yahoo!!!!11 Okay, there are… Read more »
