^ Upon closer review of the very jumbled timeline page, the games are generally in chronological order, but I think that's the only point I had outright wrong. I'll be honest, I didn't look very close because I don't really know what I'm looking for and, as I already mentioned, I don't care very much.

I assume you're already involved with the series, and so I'll defer to you on facts but my original points were really more about my subjective experience. In any case, this topic's really wearing on me and I'd like to be done with this conversation.

I think if I were to reduce it to single issue, it wouldn't be the quantity of content, but how fragmented it is. Most large franchises have a core installment or linear series thereof that will give you all the basics, and Touhou lacks that. The games are the closest, but they're not in order, most of them seem very episodic, the emphasis on the story in-game varies wildly, and some aren't even translated. So, if there even is a good jumping-off point, it is very hard to find.

Every single game, manga and spinoff is translated, the series follows an extremely linear timeline (roughly one incident per year), the Touhou wiki is widely considered to be extremely readable, comprehensive and accessible, and even if you're not into that, the TV Tropes page is extensive and has Cliffs Notes on every last character. As a whole, the project is considered accessible and fun precisely because it doesn't hit you with dense, complex lore or devote a hundred pages to explaining the magic system, but encourages thinking for yourself and interpreting various concepts and statements. That's the reason it has so many fanworks- the canon isn't an encyclopaedia so much as a launchpad.

Personally, I think you just seem to have a vested dislike for the franchise, probably because it didn't meet your expectations at an early point. That's perfectly fine- nobody's going to hold a gun to your head and order you to love Touhou. But if you insist on making claims about the series that are objectively wrong and misrepresenting it (to actual fans, no less), you're obviously going to get criticized. If you find it esoteric or weird or meandering or irreverent, then just say so- it's a sentiment that thousands will share, and considerably more honest than lambasting the games for not being 'in order' or translated.

Edit: Just saw your comment, never mind.

Nico looking at Nozomi's breasts is just noice

Please don't try to ruin my denial with facts and logic. I just want to see more of Sayaka with her actual gf

It has been forever since I played this game. Was not expecting to see it on dynasty.

what amazing art

Maya e kuro no seu mundo enquanto as outras estão fazendo pose para a "foto"

knowing taiyaki i physically cant tell if thats a fake quote or not

This comment section is out of context

^And now you know the extent of my knowledge of toys. What is the square pink think, the remote? Imma hafta google image this now

Either way, if I get new glasses, super glue will be my friend

Ah yes, the original Haru.

^ I can't like this pairing cause of that too... Not from seeing any awful NTR fanart, but just feeling like it's NTR because NanoFate feels firmly like the OTP who are married and have a kid so any other pairing feels like derailment of the worst kind.

How ironic, this entire comment section becoming wikipedia unintentionally

I'm just curious how this is ecchi but not NSFW. That's clearly ass-eating sir.

^^"...everlasting happy ending"? Interesting choice of phrase. The connotation I'm applying to it is also a good thing

Yes, but we don't see the actual ass. NSFW is for explicit nudity.

Oh, my... Long time I didn't see a discusion about Touhou like this. Keep going, please~

^Just on Dynasty, there's more out there. I know because I live for this ship-

Nice

Not this artist :/...but atleast this comic is nice

Adora is just enjoying some peach

I saw this image on danbooru a few days ago and I didn't noticed Gudako was... "loving" herself until I saw the tag here-
Don't blame me, Mata Hari looks so beatiful here...

^Maybe we can see this as another universum or AU...but I agree with the awful NTR fanart and some of them show a loli Fate and not adult reeeee
