kishinOooo this one, please.
Exploring more powerful youkai species like hikyu, ho-ou, kishin, etc. I think ZUN kinda wore off the novelty of tsukumogami as of late.How about the giant skeleton thing? How would ZUN loli-fy that?

Probably a Phantasmagoria with characters from TH 10-14. I think it's time for one already.
Jeez...how many games has it been? 5 now?This!
Yeah, I'd be ok with an updated Phantasmagoria.
Jeez...how many games has it been? 5 now?If so, playable Orin or Okuu plz.
Yeah, I'd be ok with an updated Phantasmagoria.
Koishi will be in TH15Koishi is actually in every game. You just can't see her. :V
Option 1 : After the cause of Youkai Rebellion, Reimu`s Gohei and Marisa`s Mini-Hakkero is overflowing with darkness so both of them must find the one who can purify their weapons until it turn into tsukumogami, stage 6 boss has the ability to prevent weapons to turn into tsukumogami while extra stage boss is the one who can purify weapons.
If they do make another PoFV, here are the new repersentives I would like to see:Woah woah Sekibenki?! What about the final boss Sukuna of TH 14.
Sanae (Obvious)
The Aki Sisters
Satori
Rin (Possibly Okuu, but not counting on it)
Sekibanki
Benben
Hatatae
One of the FW trio
Tenshi (Suika didn't appear in PoFV, so this may be unlikely, but still a good idea)
Kokoro
Miko
Byakuren
Seiga
Nazrin
And I want Sakuya, Cirno and Reisen to return.
Woah woah Sekibenki?! What about the final boss Sukuna of TH 14.
-insert big ass complaint here-
slendy gets lolified (western clothes like raiko) and big youkai war starts, the weapons of reimu, marisa and sakuya become tsukumogami and become the stage four bosses.SLENDERMAN IN MY TOUHOU?! Shut up and take my money!

Hmm... How about we take a look at the games, first.Something tells me ZUN isn't to concerned with being numerically strict. But also, consider that you are extrapolating from 2 data points. If the the second Phantasmagoria has been an even number you could say there's a trend in alternating even and odd numbers.
If you look at the numbers of the games, you can see that the Phantasmagorias are all on multiples of 3. (PoDD and PoFV are on 3 and 9, respectively.)
Since the next game is Touhou 15, then it could be another Phantasmagoria.
Look at the factors of 3 and 9:
3=3*1
9=3*3
If TH15 is a Phantasmagoria, the it would be continuing the pattern:
15=3*5
The 2nd factor is always an odd number.
I don't have a character list, sorry.
Or X-mas special.Loli Santa for final boss.
or Mima
And all of this clearly means we never see Mima because she has gone to and ruled the OutsideWorld
And Mima lol
This is the first I'm ever hearing of this.
Why do you guys like Mima?!?! ZUN doesn't own copyright of her anymore, Amusement Makers does.

Why do you guys like Mima?!?!
That's not true. ZUN owns everything in the PC-98 games, so he is free to use those characters whenever he wants to. He just doesn't want to use them anymore.

In PoDD, it's possible to get 5 Mimas onscreen at once, and I orgasm every time it happens.Since I'm pretty bad at PoDD, how does that work? It seems... interesting.
As far as I can tell, this is the only place where people seem to seriously care about MimaNo, it's everywhere. It's borderline meme material honestly, I never even take anyone seriously when they talk about Mima
No, it's everywhere. It's borderline meme material honestly, I never even take anyone seriously when they talk about Mima
that leads the much more compelling conclusion that ZUN actually doesn't care about Mima at all. Which might break a few hearts I guess.
Q: What?s happened to the older characters? Like Alice, Yuka-san, and Mima-sama ?You hear that, Mima fans? Bringing her back would be "a huge pain", it'd be "weird" to resurrect her, and he'd "rather make new characters". And before you jump all over "I won't say they'll never show up again", well, in my experience with interviewing, people don't like to be on record speaking in absolutes, so they usually hedge their bets by adding some "of course, never say never" caveat after they're done saying how they really feel. And we see how ZUN really feels.
ZUN: Well, it would be a huge pain to try to bring in older characters all the time. They?d show up, and everyone would be, ?Where have you been all this time!?? It?d be weird to fit them into the story. And, I?d rather make new characters. Of course, I won?t say they?ll never show up again ? Hm, Genjii? Well, Reimu can fly, so she doesn?t need him anymore. *g* He?s kind of a Master Roshi character. But he?s a turtle, and turtles are long-lived. He?s probably peacefully living out his days in a pond behind the shrine.
The meme is everywhere, but some people here seem terrifyingly serious about it. Or they're just more committed to the joke.I think you answered you're own question - there may indeed be a handful of dead serious Mima fans, who believe all the signs are there that she will return, and that ZUN in fact has an obligation to bring her back. But I think most of these guys are just familiar with the meme, and see "bring Mima back!" as some kind of badge of being an old school Touhou fan.
Well, Alice and Yuuka did come back in the Windows Era. So there's nothing saying that it's impossible Mima won'tDo check the date of the interview ...
Since I'm pretty bad at PoDD, how does that work? It seems... interesting.Play as Mima versus Mima, putting the Mima count at 2. Then one of the Mimas has to trigger a boss attack, which, given that you're playing Mima, is Mima, and so raises the Mima count to 3. Then the hard part: you both have to use a spell at the same time (the same frame?) so your spell cut-ins, which are images of Mima, display simultaneously. That gives you two more Mimas, bringing the Mima count to a whopping FIVE MIMAS.

It is generally common knowledge that when he left Amusement Makers to work on his own projects: the Windows series, he was not able (or did not try) to retain the rights to all of the characters from the first 5 Touhou games. You have to remember that Amusement Makers was nothing more than a small student group at a university in Tokyo. Because of this, it is not a well documented thing and I can't easily make any explicit citation. Nevertheless, the PC-98 series was a college project and it is very likely that ZUN could have retained all the rights if he had wanted to. But he either was not able to, or didn't particularly care to.Like what no. How can you say that you have no citation and Amusement Makers is a student group and it isn't well-documented and he "could have kept the rights if he wanted to", but still just assume that he doesn't own the rights anyways and then go on to say he wasn't able or didn't care.
Amusement Makers
On an on-topic note, a new Phantasmagoria sounds nice at this point, although since it seems we've gone into a totally new set of games, maybe that can wait for a bit. For a prediction, I'm guessing the next game is probably going to have nothing to do with Touhou 14.
It's been 11 games since PoFV. We really need a new Phantasmagoria, due to the game count (Eleven??) and the PoXX pattern (happens on odd multiples of 3).
If it is a PoXX game, then have at least 1 representative from each game from EoSD:
Snip
Character Count: A maximum of 26 characters, if all characters listed make it in.
A new Phantasmagoria or Photo game might be cool, but please, less major reappearing characters in that case (except the given ones of course, like Reimu/Marisa and maybe Sanae).
Not to shoot down the idea, but I've got a gut feeling that ZUN won't be doing a heavily Western Touhou game until one of the following two factors occurs:
1. ZUN runs out of Asian myths, legends, and stories to base his games off of (which I HIGHLY DOUBT will be happening any time soon, considering just how many I'm sure there are remaining)...
2. Something in or about the West grasps ZUN's attention so strongly that he feels the unbearable urge to turn it into a Touhou.
I'd be so thrilled to see Touhou 14.5 as a photography game with PC98 folks. This would allow Mima, Shinki, Sariel, etc. to return without causing a big kerfuffle in a main game. ZUN already said he'd find it hard to bring some of the 98 folks back, meaning we'll probably not see them unless he throws them into a spinoff, so I can imagine him shutting the fandom up with this once and for all. :P Also I'd like to see Yuuka in a non-Phantasmagoria game so she can have actual spell cards; that'd be cool. He could even put in Genji as a joke if he wanted, there. So you'd have Sariel, Konngara, Shinki, Yuuka, Chiyuri/etc. (ye gods I know nothing about 3), Mima, Marisa, and little Alice if he's okay doing the time warp. (Or Alice not using dolls, whatever.)Eh, aside from not being a very realistic possibility, it would also seem very forced and unsatisfying to see all the PC-98 characters back without any explanation (and any dialogue!). I'd be happy to see them back, but ultimately, I would want them to make even more (and relevant!) appearances.
Otherwise, Touhou 15...hmm. He seems to have exhausted his desire for historical basis (Shoutoku etc.), so I expect he'll stick to legends for a while. I'm guessing playable character #3 will either be Sanae or Sakuya, since he seems to like those; I'm not sure I foresee Youmu coming back as one. Can't say which legend, though.Exhausted? TD has been the only strongly history-based game (with a bit for Yuyuko and Kokoro as well), and there's a lot more history he hasn't covered yet. Not sure why you think he's stopping there. That said, I find mythological creatures more charming than historical figures. :V There's something really fun about oni, lunarians, poltergeists, rokurokubi etc.

Since ZUN has admitted that his Touhou is inspiration from his life experience, I more than welcome if he dares to make his experience of North America from AWA integrated into his new Touhou.
Not sure if I know how he'd integrate said experience in the next game. Maybe a few more western creatures, then?I'd facepalm if I saw a Sasquatch yokai or something similar.
I'd facepalm if I saw a Sasquatch yokai or something similar.
I could, however, see him make a photo game with TD/HM/DDC/th15 characters as 15.5, seeing as it would fit all of the numbering scheme (9.5 -> 12.5 -> 15.5), the release dates of the other photo games (December 2005/March 2010/late 2014?) and the number of characters (25/27+Hatate)/16 plus 7+ from th15, maybe the 3 fairies as well).
I'd facepalm if I saw a Sasquatch yokai or something similar.or a Cthulhu, if it counts.
We still have a chance for Lily White having a spell card!I second this, in addition to Koakuma, Daiyousei, and Momiji getting official art.
Well in that case it's just more canon. . . .I mostly mean from how Shinki created everything in Makai, yet how Alice was once Human and now living in the Forest of Magic.I'm not sure, but does it say in MS that Alice actually was created by Shinki? (I should probably read the translated dialogue/story somewhere.)
I wouldn't mind new characters, but I think I will like it if at least 1 or 2 PC-98 characters came back but with a bit of different canon like Alice. (Mima plz. I'm thinking more of Sara, Yumemi, Elly and such.) I will love it even more if ZUN made another photography game, but with TD,DDC, Kokoro and any other character he missed from the past.
I'm not sure, but does it say in MS that Alice actually was created by Shinki? (I should probably read the translated dialogue/story somewhere.)
If not, It could still be possible that she was a human, even if she was in Makai.
I second this, in addition to Koakuma, Daiyousei, and Momiji getting official art.
Momiji is one thing, but it's important to remember that ZUN never even gave Koakuma and Daiyousei names, nor has he written a profile for them, or mentioned them in any official works. As far he's concerned they're a generic fairy and a generic demon who are no more important than the slightly bigger fairies that shoot bigger patterns, or the giant divine spirit in TD stage 1. They are non-characters, canonically speaking. I think it's very unlikely for ZUN to ever acknowledge them.
ZUN did say 'Daiyousei' and 'Koakuma' are actually some kind of species, so the Daiyousei playing hide and seek with Cirno, the Daiyousei facing you as mid-boss in EoSD, and the Daiyousei facing you as mid-boss in Fairy Wars may not be the same fairy. And neither do Koakuma.
Can't believe I didn't post this earlier.
Phantasmorgia.
3 + 6 = 9
9 + 6 = 15
9 reintroduced a PC98.
Why not 15 do the same to another green haired PC98?
Flawless logic yes.
I'd like to see Shinki back for a game instead of a green haired robot-maid to be honestI meant it as a joke since Kingault wanted a green haired pc-98 to return. Noone ever understands me :fail:
It might as well be someone from Phantasmagoria of Dim.Dream. Yes, we need our little Marisa, Ellen, back! (and Socrates!)Inb4 playable Socrates :toot:
Inori Aizawa (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHTUlF7NA2o) in Phantasm.
TH15 is about Youkai musician wars.To be honest I saw this more to be a 14.x game... We could see the Prismriver Sisters fighting the new musical tsukumogamis from DDC in a spin-off just like GFW.
Phantasmagoria with everybody as playable character. Even Rinnosuke. Especially Rinnosuke. Oh, but Miko is even more important.I second that! Just, Kasen as well, especially if she truly had to be an EX boss.

MoF causes Kanako to make Utsuho start SA, which frees the ship for UFO then Byakuren builds the temple and resurrects the Taoists for TD, which provokes the youkai who rise up in DDC.
So it seems like 15's incident will be a result of the mallet's power....Could it be fairy related?
