It'll be another doujin thing. ZUN ain't backing shit, so it's not official. It really goes to show how dedicated the fandom is though to make what now, is this the 4th or 5th anime from scratch? That's mighty fucking impressive, considering how much effort it takes drawing/coloring all those frames.

ZUN won't back an anime because it's just plain going to clash with various things fans envision for it, setting a bunch of facts in static canon and hence ruining the flexible, anything-goes aspect of the series that's built it up into the mightiest doujin empire in history. Everyone thinks of certain things differently and envisions how certain things should be, for example I'm not sure if ZUN himself is 100% sure what a danmaku fight should look like outside a game and if there's other fights. Should it be literally dodging and weaving like the games, or should it be more converted to a hotblooded magic fight like the fighters, etc. Would it acknowledge the infinite amount of fanon stuff? How much so, should it be blatant or subtle etc? No matter what he would decide for these answers, it would piss off huge segment of fans who wanted it done some other way. By just letting fans do things the way they want, he can avoid fragmenting the fandom by backing any one way of going about this.

Not to mention, in an official anime it would need -everything- to be a full ride to try to satisfy everyone. This means fitting everything from the various SoL manga to retracing the plots of 15 games + the fighters + Aya games + Fairy Wars + Seija game, all into one cohesive unit going for probably hundreds of eps, would be an immensely difficult task to engineer, something I don't think ZUN himself wants to try to tackle, because for starters the PC-98 games seem to be in a previous/alternate universe from the Windows ones. There are so many vague and disjointed things that just wouldn't piece together well into a cohesive unit in an official anime, that it's no wonder he dismisses the idea.

Reminds me of early 2009 and 2010 the peak of Touhou popularity.Every studio on the planet wanted to make a Touhou anime,hell even Square Enix beg Zun to use his characters in one of their video games.Ufotable went out of their way to make their own crossover,and atleast 3 doujin circles went on to make their on fan anime.Will Touhou ever reach that peak again.

The offer still stands probably, since it's still pretty big.

I think a non-canon Touhou cameo crossover with some games wouldn't hurt.

>>15064182
ZUN's guidelines for Touhou fanworks are basically "Do not create secondaries" along with a list of ways to avoid that. E.g. he doesn't care if you sell a fanwork at an event aimed at Touhou fans, but he does care if you sell it on Steam.

Dude each game would take like 3 episodes at MOST. You could just skip the spin-offs besides the fighters as well. They wouldn't adapt the PC-98 games either.

When you ignore ZUN's refusal to sell Touhou to an anime company, the real problem is budget. Face it: Touhou is, for all intents and purposes, a fighting series. It's filled to the brim with fighting, except instead of martial arts and ki blasts it's got spellcard duels. All the fights would require a serious budget to look amazing or animators that actually give a shit like the ones for One-Punch Man did. And an adaption of the games would have a gigantic amount of fights.

Honestly that's one of my main annoyances with ZUN. All the manga are just SOL stuff, when 2hu is basically a shounen fighting series but with cute girls throwing danmaku at each other. Hell, even the doujinka don't make any actions doujins, they just make yurishit, sophmoric grimdark wankery, cute SOL, or porn. The thing I want to see the most is an manga retelling of the games with some badass fight scenes.

For a series all about fighting, ZUN sure downplays that aspect.
>>
>>15083240
>For a series all about fighting, ZUN sure downplays that aspect.
Except for, you know, the part where every game in the series is all about fighting. For him the spell cards, the music and the gameplay all go together. You can't do that in manga.

>Hell, even the doujinka don't make any actions doujins
Most action doujinshi are "sophomoric grimdark wankery" (or pretends to be such before everyone sits down for tea afterwards.)

This isn't a ZUN thing. It's basic etiquette in communities like doujin, open source, etc. that you ABSOLUTELY DO NOT create confusion as to what a thing is, or who's responsible for it. Doujin creators don't have massive PR and marketing departments to smooth things over for them, meaning that even a single person doing that can ruin things for everyone.

Every Touhou doujin ever made starts with something like
>Warning: This is a fanwork based on Touhou Project.
>It differs considerably from the original works, and may be disrespectful of the characters and setting.
>Please proceed with caution if you wish to preserve the image of the original works. If you dislike such fanworks, please do not continue reading.

Considering none of the official manga have been adaptations of the games you can rule the idea of "it has to cover everything" out from the get go. Touhou anime would literally be just like the manga in the sense that it assumes you're already familiar with these characters and the incidents of the games, and would simply present a new original story in anine-only format.

Imagine trying to make sense to SSiB without already knowing Touhou - you can't. It assumes you already have that knowledge going in. A Touhou anime would be no different, MAYBE at most you'd get a basic run-through introducing the main cast for first comers. But otherwise any official Touhou anime can be guaranteed as a new story and not an adaptation retelling the events of the games.

I don't really see the problem here. ZUN's writing is at its strongest when he tells laid-back, mysterious stories steeped in folklore. The one time he tried to do a more action-oriented story he churned out the mediocre turd that is SSiB, and I think I speak for most people when I say, if I were forced to choose, I'd rather have an anime adaption of WaHH or FS than SSiB.

>2hu is basically a shounen fighting series
Touhou has nowhere near the same dynamic as a battle manga. Just off the top of my head: the plots aren't as simple or gamelike (ironically), there are no power-ups that are part of the narrative, the main characters don't have hidden potentials, there's no big bad, the villains that do exist aren't black and white. I don't say these things necessarily to applaud Touhou or decry battle manga (I enjoy both), only to show that Touhou doesn't fit that mold. Calling Touhou a "shounen fighting series" because it has fighting is like calling KanColle a naval simulator because it has boats.

>With the way anime are produced, ZUN would have very little control over it, and the studio would probably turn it into yuribait with a black-and-white conflict where everyone acts out of character.
You are completely confusing anime and anime production with American productions and I can't even imagine how you managed to do that.

You think they are "self-inserts" precisely because you are obsessed with self-insertion. You are also ignoring the many shows where there are no male characters, or where they are only in a supporting role.

Touhou itself has only one male character I think, and people don't care about him that much.
>>
>>15117361
>The one time he tried to do a more action-oriented story he churned out the mediocre turd that is SSiB
SSiB isn't an action series. Like, at all. The only fighting in it is literally just the heroines and Yorihime standing and throwing attacks at each while Yorihime marysues her way through everything. The point of that scene wasn't to excite us with fights, it was to watch Yorihime cheese everything to demonstrate her power.

I mean, it was boring as shit, but it wasn't meant to be exciting. It was just a several-chapter long establishing shot for Yorihime.

>Just off the top of my head: the plots aren't as simple or gamelike (ironically), there are no power-ups that are part of the narrative, the main characters don't have hidden potentials, there's no big bad, the villains that do exist aren't black and white.

All of this is true, but you could still make a damn cool action manga from 2hu. Danmaku fights are vastly unlike the hand-to-hand combat you see in basically every shounen, and their aerial nature allows for a lot of dynamic situations. Just look at those 3D videos Japanese fans have made such as that famous Reimu vs. Utsuho one.

You could easily make a manga that followed Reimu and Marisa solving an incident, with more detail than the games allow for. But of course, ZUN isn't into that and prefers his laid-back SoL atmosphere, which is fine though I can't deny that I'm a little disappointed.

>I mean, it was boring as shit, but it wasn't meant to be exciting. It was just a several-chapter long establishing shot for Yorihime.

Yorihime is a miko who tries to stop an incident by fighting a series of enemies in Spell Card duels, each more powerful than the last. The first three are nobodies who are mostly there to help her get her bearings. Her sixth opponent is the one responsible for the incident. Then she fights a seventh person who is even more powerful but has no real reason to be there.

Anime Tenchou x Touhou Project

>>15121523
May it rest in peace.
>>
Touhou gameplay doesn't translate well to a moving picture, because the concept of flying forward constantly in a corridor while rapid-firing some paraphernalia or energy ball for a couple of minutes doesn't make for an entertaining confrontation. Touhou plot is very vague and transmitted only through a few lines of dialogue every few minutes, which makes it hard to imagine what sort of personality the characters have or what the overarching story even is.

The result is almost always a boring, cringeworthy production that upsets fans because of how the writer imagined the characters to be and how the fight scenes are made to look like budget Dragonball Z.

We already have examples of what Touhou anime could be. It's all mediocre. It's not making a killing. A studio funding this is not going to change jack. Zun isn't the problem, Touhou isn't the problem. It's just not a game series that will ever translate well to anime unless the gameplay and the writing evolve to a somewhat different genre of game.

Be thankful that you even have manga works that are considered canon, and are even of relative high-quality depending on what you're looking for. If all you're looking for is a door to enter the universe, you could play the games on easy or read the wiki.

And please, for fuck's sake, stop asking for a Touhou anime or wondering why no studio is picking up on this "goldmine", because it'll probably just be like putting more mediocre productions out on the market that's already saturated with mediocrity.

>>
>>15129610
I agree completely, the battles should look like that. If a hypothetical anime were to exist, it all the battle scenes looked like that, it would be an instant hit with action anime fans.

...but realistically, I think the stars would have to align to be able to find a studio that can even start to conceptualize scenes as good as that, write them, storyboard them, animate them and the rest of the episodes, all in crunch time and probably under a budget. I wouldn't be surprised if it took the guy who made that image several days, if not weeks, to finish by himself, because animating well and properly is very very difficult.

It would have to be a studio like Trigger or something similar to make a Touhou anime, that would not just be about girls sitting under the shade drinking tea all day, for it to be a successful Touhou anime that would be a nice introduction to newcomers and would garner a true secondary following who would jump into the manga or better yet, try the games out for themselves.

But it's just too much of a fat chance. It's too incredible to hypothesize about. I don't think it's even worth it to consider that a hypothetical Touhou anime would have scenes like that.

There's already Gensou Mangekyou, Musou Kakyou, the more recent Hifuu Club Activity and lots of other fan works. And that's already good enough.

This is how a Touhou fight actually looks like. They start from 1:04 with their normal attacks, then Yuuka activates a spell card at at 1:28. She concentrates for a second and then a beautiful pattern of danmaku begins to attack. Marisa reacts by bombing (a "bomb" in the main games is when a heroine activates one of her own spellcards).

I could see it crossing over into wario ware pretty smoothly

Good.

Anything that makes the fandom flared up makes me moist.

What about the fighting games? They incorporates melee brawl with spellcard rules.

>inb4 it's not canon

It's shown in manga few times, like in WaHH where Reimu and Byakuren are going to face off HM-style, and Remilia attempted to get close to Yorihime for a claw during their battle in SSiB.
In PCB, Youmu can slash you, too.

From the little seen of Ufotable's Touhou teaser it seemed like they had a pretty good vision of how a spellcard battle might look as well. Shame it dissappeared into the midsts of time.

Though I hear the second volume of the SCoOW magazine is going to do a feature on it and possibly show what was made.

There's methods that don't need ZUN's blessing.

ex: I've conjured up a scenario, 15-20 years into the future, where Gensokyo becomes a country in the world community, is introduced to 21st century technology, and in turn use magic to become a burgeoning world superpower... with ensuing hilarity

This, and other semi-canon plots, are within the realm of possibilities

You mean use different setting so people won't mistake it with canon?

I want Gensokyo in MMO-like medieval/western fantasy setting.

>Does ZUN hate money?
Not being greedy does not equal to hating money, you capitalist scum. Although it's obvious that he cares about income more than before because now Zun's a family man.
Better question is, why do people ask "why is there no 2hu" anime. There's tons of anime about variety of girls fighting and doing cute things. Assuming it's secondaries that ask for Touhou anime, why do they need that? Character design?
You can't translate Touhou gameplay, Zun's music, and games atmosphere in general to anime, and Zun doesn't want official Touhou content that doesn't feel like his Touhou. And his Touhou isn't what majority would like, writing-wise.

This.
Looks like doujin animation get a pass so if you want anime it's the best you can expect.

The cons is it's less likely get voiced and released one episode a year at best.

Now that is an idea for a Touhou anime I could get behind. CoLA was immensely entertaining and I agree that with a touch of SHAFT his insane rationalizations would be a joy to watch.

not everything is about money, my materialistic simian friend.
