shift makes you move slower for better dodging and also makes your shots tighter to do more damage. if you play games after Eosd holding shift also let's you see your hitbox

Touhou lore is vast and complicated. It's also split into two sections, Canon and Fanon. Fanon is actually the more important lore, as canon is loose and vague by design. If you're interested in getting into touhou, consider playing at least 1 mainline game (Perfect cherry blossom is conisdered the easiest game, and is actually my favorite). There is no wrong way to be a touhou fan, but PLEASE at least play 1 game

This is a touhou shitposting thread but being serious the touhou lore is negligible. Most games plots are like
>some supernatural bitch is cooking up some weird shit in Gensokyo
>Reimu or whoever sees signs of the weird shit happening and follows the trail to see where it leads
>Kills everything in her path, including totally unrelated supernatural bitches who happen to be in the way, like Cirno
>Reimu confronts the ultimate bitch who's doing the weird shit. Beats her up
>Asckhually the weird bitch was kind of working with an even greater bitch
>Superboss ensues
>Everyone becomes friends afterward and they live happily ever after

That's how it is most of the time when ZUN isn't doing some weird gimmicks

As much as people dislike it, I'd really recommend UDoALG to any touhou fan trying to get into touhou games. Maybe do a couple runs of EoSD or PCB to get a feel for normal gameplay, then head to UDoALG when you feel burnt out.

The mechanics are complicated compared to a normal touhou game, but the ability to take a hit and later regenerate that shield is VERY overpowered. It lets you get to later stages even if you aren't too good. It has a cast of a bunch of great characters that fans will recognize, and if you play through all routes, you'll be getting better at shmup in general as you play.

I tried EoSD, and could barely get to Sakuya using all 3 continues. After playing a ton of UDoALG, and getting 10-ish 1ccs on there, I went back to EoSD and I beat Remillia on my first try! Another handful of attempts and I got my first normal game 1cc.

Every game is it's own self contained story and the lore is loosely connected shit that doesn't really matter cause it's not even that good. Just keep playing the games, get gud

also the most important part
>fanbase anguishes to establish unique and elaborate personalities for all of the characters in the game
>based on their 3 sentences of dialogue before their boss fight
>and the gibberish titles of their theme songs
>and maybe even the shape of their bullet patterns
>or the game's instruction manual, in Cirno's case
>mountains of fanart and fanfics are created based on these minute and slightly fabricated details

don't forget the canon mangas and written works and shit, driving this series even closer to actually being classified as anime then it already is. Then theres nonsense like the million music CD's that also sit on lore, shit is canon and canon is some autistic shit. At the end of the day i'll point to what i've always pointed too, go play the fightan games, go read shit and listen to music, and don't worry about shit things are only as extensive as you want to dig into.

True but I think the mangas and other shit that are officially canon don't really establish new things about the characters as much as they just take what the fanbase already made up and "canon-ize" it. The fanbase still ultimately is responsible for a lot of the characters' personalities and tropes
