On April 12th ZUN announced his latest game, Touhou 14.3 "Danmaku Amanojaku ~ Impossible Spell Card."
Are you serious

The mechanics seem kind of cool, but... Seija? Really?

I don't think I know enough about this to have an opinion on it, other than my dislike for Seija.

Edit: I'd also like to know how she got her hands on those items.

It completely breaks the structure I had perceived and the fact that ZUN doesn't make stuff that's unorthodox towards Touhou
Still, I'm excited to see what the hell this is

3195909
Why do you hate her so when you can just tip-toe across the screen?

3195915 I don't like her as a character, I haven't gotten a chance to play DDC yet.

3195918
Why is that then?

3195921 Because the download I used to get the games only has them up until 12.3, and I don't know any other places to get the rest of them.

3195923
Clever...

Why is it that you dislike her as a character, then?

3195932 Just her personality, I'm sure you know what I'm talking about, basically just her backwards view on everything.

3195949
She can't help it.
Much like Parsee...

3195952 I know that she's just naturally like that, but that doesn't mean I have to like it.

3195956
It feels unfair somehow...
Okie-dokie

Uuugh one of the two characters in Touhou that I actually dislike gets her own game
But the gameplay seems fun though...

3195956
At least someone's on the same page as me

3195963
I do not concur

3195967
You don't think the gameplay seems neat?

3195964
3195949
Right? Let's make a Seija Seriously Sucks group, and write a bunch of fics (that could be accepted as canon for their authenticity) about why Seija seriously sucks.

3195913
And I dunno what you mean, he's been making weird stuff since Shoot The Bullet~

3195970
Nah~

3195971 I actually liked Shoot the Bullet.

3195970 An excellent idea if I've ever seen one.

3195989
I do as well, I just said "weird" to indicate it's departure from traditional Touhou gameplay. I like Fairy Wars in that sense as well~

3195992
Well there's gonna be another 2 weird games before Touhou 15 if this is 14.3... probably one of them being a fighter that may be an expansion to HM or a random expansion to Soku.
It seems too soon for another STB game though, since the game can only be about 13, 13.5 and 14...

I'll look forward to the fighter, then. Comeoooon Soku update, I want to finally get that Wriggle, Kaguya, and Mouko~

3196005
Don't forget Nitori!

*gasp* maybe 14.5 or 14.8 will be a phantasmagoria game

3195969
I don't agree with your sentiment that Seija sucks

3195900
seija

no

zun pls

y u do dis

3195970 you have my vote

3196131
Because of you
Now that I am no longer shocked I say; deal with it.

3196127
I said I dislike Seija, I didn't say she sucks. There's a difference there

3196143
Everyone else has said it
I don't appreciate that

3196148
But I didn't go along with saying she sucks, I still respect characters I dislike, which are only two right now.

3196149
That's nice at least.

3196166
Maybe 14.3 will make me like her? I dunno, we will have to see

3196171
Let's see indeed

3196177
Sea we shell

3196180
Eh?

3196225
Nautical jokes not doing it for ye huh

3196251
I shore sea it Doe

It's called Impossible Spell Card.

Clearly, ZUN has looked at all the other spell cards before, and decided: "You know, these need to be even harder."

So what I can tell from the video, Seija has literally stolen everything not nailed down. Now Gensokyo wants to kill her to death. But especially Kagerou, Waggysaggy and Sekibanki. Therefore, she must use her ill-gotten gains as weapons.

And Seija has a Yin-Yang Orb. I thought only Reimu could use Yin-Yang Orbs...

3196283
I guess you could say she's flipping the tables on Reimu

3196283
I think it's just that she's considered a fugitive due to some mess she made unintentionally,(?) whereas they decide to catch her with walls of Danmaku.(Seiga, anyone?)

3196296
Maybe she's trying to make the impossible spellcard and needs to steal everything she can to make it?

3196283 Canon was sketchy enough as is, why not just completely throw it all the way out the window?

I guess you could say that...
Seija stole the precious things!
*everyone boos at bad joke*

3196008
Oooooh, I really hope you're right, but I doubt he would. They're full number games, after all~

If it makes you feel better, the only ones I don't care for is Seiga and Nitori.

I don't hate them mind you. Just find them Sketchy characters

3196769
N-Nitori...? You monster.

3196787

A sociopathic kappa girl with an ass fetish!!

You can't pull out that many sprit balls out off butts without it being a fettish

3196800
I don't agree with that either.
Nitori's just a shy kappa with some Youkai-like arrogance and material desires. Otherwise she's benevolent and kind
