/jp/ - Otaku Culture

There are, but you don't see them.

They lie, dead but dreaming, in the bowels of Pixiv.

lurk more and learn japanese
some ocs are more popular than the actual characters

I'd spam that tadpole's setting, if you know what I mean.

Westerners don't actually care the characters. They just want to leech off of Touhou's popularity.

There's quite of bit of original characters from Japan, actually. Here's one of the more popular ones.

Quite a bit of, rather.

Are you retarded or something?

I figured there were some on pixiv but whenever I search 東方 I don't notice anything.

I guess it's also possible that if it isn't a character I recognize I don't really pay it a second thought.

>>12995671
The first one's not Tenma. And that design is completely original so I think it's close enough. It was the only one I could think of in short notice, anyway.

I didn't say popular, I said more popular. And seeing how there are several pictures of her with over 500 bookmarks and one with over 1000 bookmarks I'd say I'm right. Don't be silly.

GUST is disgusting.

This, but there are easterners that do the exact same thing, the only difference is they can draw well and when it's drawn well it can get circlejerked into a cancerous tumor. Sadly, being written with an iota of effort is not a requirement for OCs.

With westerners you can find most of them being ignored for being both bad and drawn badly...or with walfas as you've linked.

>>12996754
this post is disgusting

The tag 東方オリジナル gets 3697 results and 東方オリキャラ gets 2776, choose your poison.

One highly known orichara that isn't based off of some other character (or beings that technically exist/existed in Gensokyo, like Tenma or sendai miko) is pic related. Pretty cute if you ask me. That reminds me though, I haven't beaten her game yet...

Good lord, i would do naughty things to that tadpole.

Suwako is for anal sex

There's always Mitori. I like her battle.

She's for impregnation, being one of the canon Touhou that had kids.

>>12997141
The most OC characters by westerners tend to be on the same level as Sonic OC ones. Both in drawing and writing. Some time ago I looked with friends at a forum for touhou roleplaying and the OC characters there were so gringe worthy. Dozens of super old super powerful youkai, half-youkai, half-whatevers. They all had crappy names and often were in some weird way related to the original cast. It was just a bunch of teenagers trying to overtrump each other with who has the strongest OC character.

But I don't want to be a father!

Never forget Neko Scarlet.

I still have a soft spot for Roku.

>>12997836
Do you seriously expect some /a/v/kiddies to know nip?

>>12997827
>Sonic OC level
At least that lets everyone ignore them, like I said, drawn well in Japan and it becomes cancer.

From sisters related to the canon characters to shitty meme spewing self-inserts.

Fuck Buront. Hate that elven faggot. His memes are cancer to 2hou community

Some of them are quite lazy, being palette swaps.

>>12997978
Funny you say that considering /a/ is the head quarters for learning jap.

>>12998274
I guess this is where I quip about the difference between learning and knowing.

>>12998199
I feel bad for whoever that 'dirty ninja' guy is based on, dude didn't do anything wrong and now has a shitty donut steel based on him that exists as a prop to make a gary stu look good. (Much like how every "touhou" is reduced to a dialogue receptable.)
The actual person Buront's based on is a piece of shit.

>>12995871
Are you talking shit about my daughter?

Why not create a new GUST thread? I also got here by searching for GUST, and it seems there hasn't been a GUST thread since last November. I'd make one myself, but I'm totally out of the loop on what GUST's been doing lately (plus I'm not interested in Ar Tonelico/Nosurge so most of the recent discussion has been completely irrelevant to me).

>>13012156
GUST hasn't announced their next project yet, AFAIK.

>>13020623
Isn't Atelier a yearly series? Shallie was released in July, how come we don't know what the 2015 Atelier will be even though it's already February?

>>13024232
GUST was eaten by TK, and by some reports has been digested. Who can know what TK will do with the brand?

>>13020623
That's a nice swimsuit. Is that from Atelier Shellie?

>>13024281
I don't have Shallie yet, but it's the only one where Wilbell would look that old.

>>12995871

I would bet those bookmarks are because she is a decent enough looking animal-eared girl.

See, this is why we need a GUST thread. News or no news.

Gust announced the first Atelier game for Nintendo 3DS last month, with Atelier Rorona, an upcoming game with Rorona and friends in chibi-style appearances. This week’s issue of Famitsu magazine shares the latest details. [Thanks, Game Jouhou.]
We still don’t know whether the game is a cute-looking remake or a spinoff title, but Famitsu reports that upon meeting special conditions, you’ll unlock something called “Atelier Astrid” in the game.
This unlocked feature will take place when Astrid Zexis and Sterkenburg “Sterk” Cranach were younger, and you’ll get to check out how they lived their lives. Again, the magazine reports that Atelier Rorona has an adjustable difficulty feature as well.
Atelier Rorona will release in Japan on March 26, 2015 for Nintendo 3DS.

>Why aren't there more disgusting OC characters in the Touhou fanbase?
I take it you never visited touhou-project. Visit it, seriously. It'll broaden your vision. And your anal circumference, given how much of a circlerjerk it is.
