So, an I the only one that is wondering why the lives are disabled in many of the screenshots?


There could also be the chance that the game is still in development, and that the live counter just isn't there yet.

Yay, I can finally play as raisins :D
I believe this is the only touhou game you can play as reisen, besides the spinoff fighter games

I've been thinking a little, mainly about the title.

Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom.

Lunatic Kingdom is likely the Lunar capital, considering the moon's relevance to insanity in Touhou, along with the inclusion of Reisen.

But why Legacy? Did sometihng happen to the Lunar Capital? Did the humans somehow win, and the survivors fled to Gensokyo?

Probably wrong. It would be a cool concept, though.




Sometimes when you're driving down a road, a bug hits your windshield. It's ugly and unpleasant, but you just activate the wipers / cleaning fluid and it's gone in a few seconds. It's just part of driving down the road. You don't dwell on it, because that'd be silly. Bugs aren't worth the time.

You just discard their guts and keep on driving.

Well there's so much history of the Moon thanks to stories like Silent Sinner in Blue's back story and such. So most likely something along the lines of that being the case?

I am super hoping to see Yorihime and Toyohime, but I doubt either of them would be the final boss. Extra boss possibly or even stage 5. Either case I want to see them.

I would almost say Phantasm boss, mainly considering how powerful the two are. They kicked everyone's ass. I would like to see it though, especially with Reisen considering their previous relationship.

I honestly could see that too considering the "extra difficulty of playing with only one life" option. I really do wonder though. All the hype.

ZUN just updated his blog with a nice teaser image. A photo of what is most likely the upcoming demo's disc:

(Tell me if this image is broken so I can rehost it. This is quite an important one.)

As you can see, the disc has artwork of one of the game's new bosses/midbosses. Specifically, the blue-haired rabbit that we saw in the original announcement blog post. (Check the OP if you want to see the first images of blue-haired bun-bun.)

So far, no translation of the blog post has been made. If this new girl has a name, we don't know it yet.

EDIT: There's already artwork for this rabbit! The hell?!

Now that I think of it, I wonder if Reisen (2nd Reisen) will appear in this game.

I think we can confirm the game will be related to the lunarians now since this girl has the formal clothing of their people (albeit without the helmet),

also about that fanart.. it was made 2 HOURS after the release (and I can only make stick people..)

but anyways, there are enough things to say that the lunarians will play a big role in this game thanks to the screenshots, the revealed in-game characters, the main menu´s background, disk´s artwork, etcetera.

Have you ever crossed the line between sanity and madness? You would be amazed by what lies beyond the fog..
