Now you're thinking with bounderies! (Walfas)

Well I've made reference and added a few links but I've never actually said how much I actually like Touhou games so I'm gonna go into some detail on how I found out about it (or at least what I can remember).

Well it basically started with a song I found on Youtube called "Marisa stole the precious thing" made by a doujin circle called IOSYS. So I started looking into what this song comes from, and finally I found a game called Immaterial and Missing Power. (Terrible translation of the title, I have no idea why they went with it...) Anyway, I was really hooked on this fighting game cause it was so different from normal side scroll sprite fighting games! well I was playing Iamp I noticed on one of the levels song was "Marisa Stole The Precious Thing" But with out the voices and crazy stuff and what not! So I decided to look more into the company that made Iamp, so after looking and looking I finally figured out Iamp is 7.5th game in the series of games known as Touhou which are known as Danmaku (Bullet hell, curtain fire) games. The first of these games I actually got to play was Touhou 7 Perfect Cherry blossom (PCB). So finally I figured out why Iamp was so different, its because they put the Danmaku style attacks in with the normal fighting game stuff which makes it really unique! So the first time I played Touhou 7 I got it handed to me! this game is madness! but its just soooo fun! I don't want to stop! X_X the music in this game is pretty over the top as well, the main problem is when they add the helium notes which anyone can hear through my headphones within the room, but besides that the game is extremely challenging to me, maybe thats why I'm so addicted to it. So thats pretty much how I found out about it from what I can remember, anyway I plan on making some videos and putting them on Youtube once I get a soundcard.
