Our usual review-writer was occupied with horrendous work hours conflicting with club showings, and I got buried under a pile of projects which wrecked my plans to write the reviews myself. To make up for lost time, this post is going to be divided into two parts: a long list of shows that weren’t particularly noteworthy, and a shorter list at the end of gems from this semester’s showings.

Hopefully everyone reading this blog is at least familiar with the Touhou series. Working under that assumption, I won’t bother with a rundown of the basic gameplay. This, instead, will be a summary of the main mechanic and my first impressions of each game, starting with Embodiment of Scarlet Devil and going through to Ten Desires. Well, technically they’ll be second impressions since I’m writing this after my first playthrough of each, but it’s close enough.
Now I’d tell you to hop on the tour bus, but as we all know, there are no buses in Gensokyo.
I’d warn for spoilers as well, but I never paid enough attention to the plot to know what was going on myself. ᄀ（￣ー￣）ᒥ

Well it’s too bad that Mines no longer has Japanese classes anymore… But, all hope is not lost! I’m going to talk about some helpful tools if you are interested in learning on your own:

Having a father like Gendou must be really hard. He’s always getting into your business, checking the things you buy, and sometimes punches you in the face. Then, you’re expected to go to school and act like nothing’s wrong, that all these bumps and bruises came from falling down the stairs, and at the same time deal with trivial crap from your sister. On top of that, you have to fly a robot in order to protect the world and totally friendzone your childhood friend.
Sound familiar?
Yep, I’d hate my life if I was surrounded by beautiful women who beat me. Sounds like a real hell on Earth.

Yo, my name is Alex Osecky. I’m going to be doing some posting on the blog for a while. I just graduated from Mines in the fall semester with a degree in CS. As a kinda graduation trip I decided to go to japan and study Japanese. So at least for a little while I will be posting some stuff that will probably be 100% unrelated to anime.
