Title: Touhou Musou Kakyou Episode 2 due in 2012 (Released at C82)
Post by: Arknarok on May 20, 2012, 01:04:43 PM
Since the original thread hadn't been updated for over a year, I decided to make a new one.

So Musou Kakyou ep. 2 wasn't released in 2011, but it might be released in 2012. I personally expect a C82 release, since we've been waiting for a long time already, but we'll see about that.

The project site is up: http://musoukakyo.maikaze.com/

Maikaze will release the "Opening PV" at Reitaisai 9.

Here is the PV on Youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNR1E2bLnjo), in case it hasn't been linked to yet. I got the link from the rather enthusiastic discussion going on in the Danbooru comments section.

I already did. (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,12721.msg835466.html#msg835466)

What surprises me more is how I missed this topic getting revived a week ago. I could swear I didn't see anything new here about Touhou Musou Kakyou. Oh well. My thoughts on the matter through the link above.

I'd like to know what the title of that song is too. Still, I have a feeling that the song itself was arranged specifically for Musou Kakyou. I think that was how it was for the OP of the first video. Not sure what the original theme is, could be Last Remote.

That aside, what do you all think about the chances of there being an all-star cast of seiyuu like last time?

.... Found it at last..... but I still no luck for the full version... the OST is entitled.... Negai wo yobu Kisetsu..... that's the title more or less....

...about the seiyuu... I still don't have a hint..... but I do hope that the episode is good... or even better than the first one.... hahahah ^^

Time sure flies fast.

When I saw the first episode, I knew zero Japanese.

Now I know enough to understand the plot without subtitles.

I wonder how much will happen by the time episode 3 is released...

Oh yeah, and this episode was really cute.

Well, If Maikaze releases another in a short time, then it might cover this..

But if Maikaze releases another episodes in the same range of time like before.. Noooo.. :(

It's been so long since the first episode was released. Actually, the thought of it is somewhat mind-blowing...

On another note, an English dub would be more than a blessing. About how long would it take until someone uploads a dubbed version? I'm somewhat dying to see this borderline-fabled episode that we've waited for so long.

Well, the previous episode was slow as hell - the first half of it was everyone figuring out that Reimu's donation box had been stolen.

Aho-Taku has subbed ep2, and done a pretty good job of it. The seiyuu cast is pretty incredible, too (Rie Tanaka as Sakuya? Oh hell yes). And the in-jokes were fun, even if the dialogue seemed kinda wooden at times. My complaint would be that, within the context of a 12-ep series, it's already off to a really slow start, and within the context of "we have no idea how many of these will be made, or when each ep gets released", I think they should be using more than a simple cliffhanger to keep people interested. The jokey banter between the characters is fun, though.

So I'll summarize my thoughts on the new episode by copy+pasta what I said in #scarlet-library:
Quote
   
GEEGEEGEEGEEpop -     so just watched the new maikaze ep since it was subbed and all now
   GEEGEEGEEGEEpop -    man it really is kinda slow and have no idea where it's even going
   GEEGEEGEEGEEpop -    plot-wise, it's pretty weak
   GEEGEEGEEGEEpop -    but I dunno, I still chuckled at quite a few jokes it threw out
   GEEGEEGEEGEEpop -    though I feel it tries too hard at times
   GEEGEEGEEGEEpop -    and a lot of the character's personalities seem either off or just toned down because for some reason they all seem either bored or stressed out to show themselves off
   GEEGEEGEEGEEpop -   Except Aya
   GEEGEEGEEGEEpop -   she's her usual self, which is nice
   GEEGEEGEEGEEpop -   but the good thing about this ep is
   GEEGEEGEEGEEpop -   the animation and art has GREATLY improved

The only things worth mentioning are the animation, music, and voice acting. There's entirely no plot, and I'm okay with that.
But since they're obviously trying to have some kind of comprehensive overarching storyline, they, uh, failed. Badly.

Expect 2-3 new Touhou games if we wait for a few more years again.

About the new Maikaze ep, yes, story progression is really slow. I'm seeing a more-like slice of life of Gensokyo residents if you ask me. A rather disappointment.

Honestly, I don't mind Touhou ever having an anime. I always have the though of "How an anime might ruin something good".  It's not very rare to see anime adaptations ruin good light novels/mangas.

Yeah ... I did not approve of some of the fanon interpretations there. "Not-quite-so-perfect-and-elegant-Sakuya" made me sigh, NEET-Kaguya was somewhat irritating, and when
Marisa was visiting Patchouli, and found a doll and promptly recalled some sort of Mysterious Stalker
I literally said "Oh, shit."

I mean ... at least it's not Touhou Project Side Story, but ...

Well, their project, their interpretations, just move on if you didn't like it. For a fan-project I'd wager it's still quite awesome.
Look at the bright side, at least most of you who are complaining didn't pay for it.

Well, I don't care much for the moe Touhou interpretation, but I thought it was great regardless. It must be such a massive effort to pull off whole episodes, and I was impressed it was better than I was expecting. From the first episode alone, the quality has improved by a tenfold. The story pace is still slow, but I didn't find it tedious as I did the first.
I'm looking forward to the next episode, but disappointedly I don't know when that could be.

As much as I didn't like it in terms of story, it's okay, but in the end, I'm just glad there are people will to put their entire time, effort and money to make a doujin touhou anime a reality. And because of that, I still like it overall for that fact that they are willing to do so.

In terms of characters, like I said, I don't mind fanon interpretation of them, I just didn't like how for the most part a lot of them seem bored or stressed, so they can't really show themselves as much (Like Marisa and the first half of Tewi and even Sakuya, though I don't really care about her anyways, she's imperfect anyways :V)

Interpretations that portray characters as having more blatant moe traits, sometimes completely ignoring what is canon.

Ye I know. But just don't get what people mean by it when they always use it to describe a  touhou fanwork.
I've played all the games and read most of the official works and the series is pretty moe to me.

I don't get what other peoples' pure interpretation of the series is.

I gotta be honest; I think I enjoyed the first ep a bit more. I can deal with a slow plot (I thoroughly enjoyed Legend of the Galactic Heroes after all), but the forth wall breaking and dumb moe shit came off as painfully forced. Honestly, didn't need that Reisen panty shot either. I am liking the Patchy/Marisa/Alice plot thread though.
