It’s the COMPleanno! Comp is, and will always be my favorite doujin composer and Touhou arranger. I love his recognizable pop-rock style, but also how he is prone to experimenting with sounds.

First of all, please read this post about the Youtube ContentID on Touhou songs. Try to spread it, if possible. If you have any question, or something to point out, feel free to leave a comment there! In a fanclub blog post, Comp said that while cleaning the studio he found some nostalgic items, and he will probably put them… Read more »
I originally wanted to wait until tomorrow’s weekly recap for talking about this, but since there are a huge shitstorm and spread of misinformation, I decided to write this update. Since a couple of weeks, a company called Rightsscale, Inc. has been sending copyright claims to various videos with Touhou music (official and fanmade). They are doing this on behalf… Read more »

And over the years, BUTAOTOME managed to make arrangements of 90% of the Touhou themes. There are some themes the Pig never… Read more »
No seriously. Let’s not talk about them. I have the introduction of a new series ready to be published, but I’m only missing a cool sounding title. Anyway, not a lot of news today… I already wrote most of the stuff in this update, so go read it! Comp was at Reitaisai’s livestream last weekend. He talked about the new… Read more »

Violet’s (dis)adventures with doujin albums orderingSo, my original plan for the C98 albums was for them to be shipped to my boyfriend, in the USA. However, Japan’s posts announced that they suspended nearly all the shipments there. And since I prefer to not receive packages until this pandemic is over (I live with people who can greatly risk from the… 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 »
