Ane said that we have to wait a little longer for the announcement… please no last-minute announcements…. Read more »
So, I wanna start with some life updates: my new apartment is pretty good, some restructural works are currently ongoing (and I also need to get Internet there). Due to some stuff, there are chances that it won’t be my new permanent home, but rather something that could be put on Airbnb and similar. Oh, and on the last week… Read more »
The results of the 18th Touhou popularity poll have been released, and while people are either congratulating Flandre or trashing her for her victory, here are some fun music stats. Last year’s stats are here. Here are the themes in the top 100 that don’t have a BUTAOTOME arrangement yet. Tracks with a * have an arrangement, but it’s instrumental/has… Read more »

Website updates I’m currently busy with a long-awaited update to a certain section (and doing back-ups), so I haven’t been focusing on written stuff… Retake+’s afterword book should be translated for next month, but I’m still deciding if I should publish it or not.

Comiket 100 has ended! As you can see from the picture above, I got the Retake+ set! Special thanks to Banbeucmas (from Banbeucmas Hobby Lounge) for getting it for me! I will translate the contents of the afterword book as soon as possible. Regarding the album itself… I decided I won’t write a review. This is my form of protest… Read more »

Holy sheep, the Arcaea 4.0 update is brutal on many ways. I can’t stop thinking about it. The story, the new music… It solidifies its status of being my favorite rhythm game, and I still hope it will get a BUTAOTOME song one day. Anyway! During these past two weeks, Comp was playing bass for Nanase Aikawa’s newest mini tour…. Read more »
