I don't know how to introduce myself (Read 465 times)

[hex]

Hi I'm Hex
I joined this forum thanks to a friend that said this was super chill.
I'm actually in a similar community but in french called Touhou-France that is pretty much similar to here but in french.

I discovered Touhou thanks to said friend who is TSUN by the PC-98 games, very cool games, my favorite among them might be Touhou 2 cause I just really like it.
I think we diverted into that because I talked about the fact I played those old Hydlide games that are particular. Then I played the windows games and haven't played further than Touhou 10.

My favorite character would be Reimu since I kinda saw her grow over the games and it a neat sensation.

I do a lot of things in my free time, I play guitar, make mods, do voice acting and singing and art in my free time and I love learning languages.

Edit: I forgot to say that I have a fumo, a Yukari Yakumo one in particular, I had thoughts of getting a new one recently but not sure which. I had a twitter account about this fumo called Yukamyth before the fumo community hit the fan.

hello welcome to forum I swear it is not a fire embems forum

if neither of you have gone past MoF that means you have not experienced the glory that is soku hm


anyway I am not exactly sure what goes on here neither I guess we find out

I've got me best friend of yakumo yukarin! (in the worst timeline), the one, the only, usami lenko-san 
even went from raymoo->lenko just like the weird 2012 version of the meriberry->yakumo yukarin! theory

it really sucked ass to see secondhand prices go from like 30-70 bucks other than buying a ran/misuzu/whoever else was rare to the average price becoming one-hundred-and-thirty dollars and also this

been waiting two years to get a sanny for $30 like it used to be

anyway I pray that eventually gift stops selling on amiami (first sale was lmao though) and all the people who would pay $150 for a marisa go away and we can once again live in peace

[lazulum]

Not many people get into Touhou from the PC-98 games (not for while, at least), that is pretty cool. Reimu is a solid pick, too.

Man, learning languages is a cool hobby. I have to get into that sometime. Right now been brushing up my economics to teach at high school. Had been a while so I had to dive deep into my old notes and texts so I could explain everything from utils, income/substitution effects, to different cost curves and marginal-based decision making of competitive firms and monopolies, etc.

What languages do you speak besides English and French? I'm guessing Japanese? Cool regardless of what it is!

Bingo! I feel stupid it's easy to guess, Normally I used to tell myself that learning Japanese would be useless because apart of games, I'd have no use of Japanese, then one day I wanted to learn Brittain, I learned a bit of it and quickly realized that apart of grandmas in my region, nobody speaks Brittain. Right now for Japanese I'm learning the Katakanas after doing the hiraganas, I'm a bit worried I forgot the hiraganas because so far I haven't done any writing or talking yet. 0-0
I'm a bit hyped to interact with Japanese communities of animes that otherwise are dead outside. (ex: Hokuto no Ken, Ranma, etc..)

I feel your pain. 
I got my Yukari for €30, I really like it and people told me I got lucky, people didn't believe me when I said I got it for €30. Guess they'll make great friends zee!

I guess we'll figure out what's going on here, I suppose it's chill for the most part.

if you want to remember kana you can use realkana
realkana.com/
you just see the kana and type it out
won't help with pronunciation and I don't think it has the stuff like にゃ or whatever but eh when combined with a pronunciation utoob video or whatever it is very effective at fixing "evanjellyon"

or "noo"

or being physically incapable of comprehending the series title "shin megami tensei" (I aint even saying this just to include SMT I genuinely knew a guy who would read/hear "shin megami tensei" and his mind just goes blank)

I grinded realkana for like three hours when I was twelve and I still remember all of hiragana and katakana 
since I did literally nothing else for six years all I can do is know what sounds I am looking at or look at a food label and see ナトリウム and go "natoriumu... oh it is sodium" but eh close enough

hello hex hows it goin
i remember tsun telling me that he toldja about our humble little forums here so welcome to the partyzone

you claim your favorite character is reimu but your profile says it is meira? i know all new users like to have their verbage dissected and cross-examined immediately so i hope you will clear up the uncertainty'

spongelevator is doing good work and introducing himself like a proper member of society with a nice gif allow me to do the same
i am aeon hello my favorite thing to do is make massive unreadable posts about important things like the precise date and time that hieda no akyuu will die and how much i like offensive skills in fire emblem

i have, of course, been following yukamyth since its inception. fantastic fumo there. i still only have the young hakurei but one fumo is enough power for any man

here's my general lunatic red talk: activity is in random but nobody will complain even if you make five posts an hour! you are also allowed to bump any thread for any reason

merry posting


also spongelevator
dude you got a RENKO FUMO?? absolutely insane. perhaps one of the best fumos i have seen. i try to be the hifuu guy but look at me next to a yukari and a renko with my lil reimu and i got nothing
i am proud to say i have been able to read all the katakana and hiragana for a long time and i still say evanjellyon and noo. sometimes you have to simply put your foot down like pronouncing gif like gif

[spongelevator]

did you forget the gif
I think you forgot the gif
wait never mind I misunderstood there was never a gif
I put another to make up for this


couldya tell me about akyuu dying again?

say it nice and slow...

for me it's gamble+nihil+pavise+mantle

that's right it's usami lenko lenko usami
it seems very recently an official renko has been announced but it looks like ass

(what is wrong with that head)
looks like I'm the winner here ha ha ha 
still have zero access to yukarins to create maeriberry haan because 2022 secondhand v1 yukarin kinda costs 3/4 a human spleen though and aint nobody brought back the bootleg yet
one day the dream becomes reality

you may have raymoo but how about ol pal maymoo



>he doesn't pronounce it gif

No? Who likes that pal, nobody! Maybe Phoenix Wright players at best.

But to answer to your untasteful remark mister the attorney man. Close second fav would be Meira cause she had the coolest boss fight in Touhou 2 without being total BS.

Also Isn't that how you say Evangelion? Since "Ange" means angels in french and you don't say the "ge" as a "gue"
So really you say, Evanjelion to put it in Frenclish.

[spongelevator]

yeah the actual word evangelion (or whatever similar word like evangelical if evangelion isn't a real word and it's a revengeance type thing) would be pronounced evanjellyon
though in the context of hit cult classic mecha fighting game neon genesis evanjellyon released for the nintendo 64 in 1999, it would be pronounced evan(g as in gif)elion

witness the trials and tribulations of shinji, our lead protagonist, jendo, his dad with a PHD in electrical engineering, ray ayanami, the mysterious robot fighting star, and asooka lankey soryew, hot-headed combat prodigy
will they be able to defeat all the monsters and gather the thirteen star fragments, or will the monsters get to them first?

Games aren't canon. 
Guess it will be another one of these exceptions where we let it slide 'cause it was said like that in vo.
Also to comment on games, remember how the DBZ games democratized the term "Mystic Gohan" for the Gohan full potential?
Guess games can be canon.

[spongelevator]

ok for actual not japes "g as in egg backwards" I will use the laziest possible way which is this snip from cruel angel's thesis


honestly probably should have went hunting for one of those things like the rei ayanami chopsticks or the eva canned coffee or whatever other "give me money" merchandise exists but eh this will do 


sorry I did not watch the dragon ball I only had a dragon ball GBA game we split open to look at the insides for science
I do not know many examples of games creating canon within animes because the only animes I have seen that I remember getting games got crusty psp visual novel games that nobody will ever play such as uhhhh
I think toradora did that
haruhi got some ds games

Maybe you could take a trip to Japan sometime, would be cool entering the country with a working knowledge of Japanese, I think. Japanese writing takes time, but it also gets easier with time if you want to be literate in Japanese. Don't lose your patience in any case and find ways to keep your motivation.

I still see Hokuto no Ken in advertisements and such here in Japan. Although they are targeted toward an older demographic (it is an old anime).

Wait shit i'm so slow lmao, okay i love that video and i unironically want to get the EVA-01 running shoes because they look quite sick, I'm not too big on shoes but I am on sports though.

I will also add to this, there's this fucking EVANGELION computer tech shit that i saw recently and itt's really cool

(one thing that sucks though, is that the pc master race is always at war when it comes to components, they always insult each other or are rude to people because they always want to brag about how big their thing is or how keen their computer can run etc.
computer tech always grow rapidly and frankly, the graphics card you bought a month ago can be obsolete by then or your gpu as well but really, people shouldn't give a shit if it's just for a percent more or more RAM and stuff, if your computer can run and isn't sinking from the ground then it's cool. (also yeah it's obvious that they did a cool epic redesign to empty their stock of the last generation, don't forget you are buying for the evangelion design as well))
