"The board" doesn't have anything against Touhou so much as certain few members do. Do you see anyone hating on Touhou in this thread? Or most threads about Touhou, even?

Imo its only the fans who some of us get wound up about (me included) and by fans i mean the otaku types that post those dumb comments on you tube (eg on that hardest video game boss ever). The games themselves i have absolutly nothing against and i personally welcome any gamers to play touhou if it gets them into all shmups in general.

I think some negativity comes from the fact that touhou is very loli and ppl who hate such things maybe see touhou as the root of the evil (but even they prolly wont knock it for the games other charms ie the bullet patterns)

The loli thing is all over the place now, beside quite plainly, it sells.

Heck, even Gradius has gone that route.

I think developers got tired of playing games about penis-shaped spaceships, trailed by their balls, blasting the crap out of giant centipede-infested space vaginas and wanted a more cheerful subject matter.
Two working class dudes, one black one white, just baked a tray of ten cookies together.

An oligarch walks in and grabs nine cookies for himself.

Then he says to the white dude "Watch out for that black dude, he wants a piece of your cookie!"
