Not completely - obviously a lot of Touhou stuff is fan-made, and as people have pointed out, that stuff is popular. So it's not tautological so much as virulent and evolving.duckman wrote:This is a complete tautology.

No idea why this was bumped twice in order to try to fight and explain the complete obvious again. I PM people for old posts; they know. I love the "quote this post" PM button.

I think a better way to put it is that the fanbase is so devoted that they do a bunch of free promo work and content creation, thereby increasing the fanbase.
