Comments(24)Touhou 12.5 Announced!
ZUN announced the new Touhou game, numbered 12.5, in an announcement on his official website today.
That’s it folks, more than two and a half years since the Inaba series debuted and we started translating it, and it’s finally finished! Was it really that long ago? (Yes.)
Even thought it was the “less official” and more inconsequential sister in the Bougetsushou releases – and possibly because of that – it was the most popular with the fans. And it certainly provided a new view on the Eientei residents as well as on the people who interacted with them during the series. So here’s a special thanks to everyone else who worked on this series: Solamarle, Pilpsie, Tetrominon, Trefle, Rukaroa and Yanfly. (･_･) b Good Job!
So, if you didn’t catch up with it while it was being released, you can get a compilation of all the 30 chapters, plus extras, in the link on the picture above. Otherwise, just keep reading for the individual link to the last chapter.
Oh, but lest the rabbits monopolize this update, don’t forget to check out the releases by UkiUki watching (if you are into lighthearted stories) or the one by Fuantei (if you are into heartless stories).

Okay, it’s almost time for the update so this one will be actually brief. What we have today is another chapter of Mischievous Fairies goodness, an intense fight doujin by Tohonifun, an unusual pairing that works surprisingly well, and the oldest in a comedy series featuring the charismatic leader of the Scarlet Devil Mansion. So, with no further delay, here they are:
Official – Strange and Bright Nature Deity 11
The Three Fairies of Light are back, and they lose no time in proving that faeries can make even mining gear look cute.
Here is our update. Enjoy.

…what? I just thought I could convey the general idea in a few words, don’t look at me like that! It worked fine for the Spartans. (And, speaking of Sparta… well, better not bring it on right now, just wait for a future update.)
But anyway, if you want a summary of what we have this time: we get close to the end of the Inaba series with one more chapter of lagomorph goodness , we DO get to the long-awaited end of the Touhou Battle Royale series, plus an epic youkai battle (that spent around a year in the works), another release from everyone’s favorite toxic substance and Satori like you’ve never seem her before.
So, be it many or few words, I believe you will find lots of fun either way.
Official – Inaba of the Moon and Inaba of the Earth Chapter 29
In this penultimate chapter, all of Eientei is busy preparing for the Second Lunar Exhibition. And as usual, everyone is contributing with what they do best.
So, hum, yeah, here’s an update for you, but it’s just because I had some free time to type it up. Oh, and we have five new releases for you this time. But don’t start having weird ideas, it’s just… we just made too much and thought you might want some, OK? That’s all! It-It’s not like we did it specially for you or anything!
This time, there’s Inaba of the Moon and Earth back (but it’s not like there’s anything special about it, I don’t even like it that much… well, I do. But just a little! ), also back is Tohonifun’s epic Yukari vs Ran series (not like there’s anything special about it, really… ), a stunning Marisa-centered story by DEMOUR402 (Marisa is so overrated. I mean, she is pretty and confident and energetic and… no, forget I said anything! ), an old Winter Scenery work where their Rinnosuke-hurting gag started (Who likes Rinnosuke anyway? I mean, I sympathize a little with him, but that’s different…) and while ACID CLUB EAST’s Touhou Battle Royale finale is still not up, there’s another release with the same backdrop by Pageratta (It’s fine and all, but it’s not like I care for humour or colors or anything.)
But we are just doing this because it’s out job, alright? It’s not like we like you or anything.
But… but we don’t hate you either…
Dummy…
Official – Inaba of the Moon and Inaba of the Earth Chapter 28
With the return of the Watatsuki princesses to the Moon, Earth-Lunar relations are back to normal and Gensokyo is safe from destruction by accidental fanning. So everything is once again peaceful at the Eientei. But for how long?
The Year of the ⑨ has come and passed. Now it is the Year of the Tiger Loli, which we can only assume will be presided by our favorite tiger loli youkai. And while the year is starting slowly, it’s not so slow that we don’t have a couple more releases to present.
Omchicken – Happy Go Lucky
An oldclassic doujinshi by Omchicken, featuring the Gensokyo girls on their usual shenanigans and just being, well, happy go lucky all around.
Sheep’s Place – Wind Roar on the Scarlet Moon – First Part
Sanae’s eagerness to play the proper role of a Gensokyo shrine maiden leads to her first visit to the Scarlet Devil Mansion. How will that turn out?
Thanks to Lunachild, Furball, [Insert Something Clever Here], JStar and everyone else!
So, after the expectation, here we are in an update just in the middle of the celebrations of Christmas, New Year, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Hogswatch (and whatever else you kids celebrate these days). And just as expected from the middle of a holiday period, our doujin releasing business isn’t exactly a-boomin’, but never-the-less we have a holiday present for you. So, take the chance and check out this Miko Miko Suika release we have, before the year ends (and the new Comiket 77 releases start coming out).
Haniwa’s Store – Miko Miko Suika: Defiance at the Hakurei Shrine
In the fourth installment of the series, celestial troublemaker Tenko Tenshi Hinanai once again comes down to the Hakurei Shrine to do what she does best.
Thanks to everyone who contributed to our releases in 2009 . Thanks to all your effort, we got more than 100 releases (110, exactly) out this year!
And of course, thanks to all our readers and fellow Touhou fans. Here’s hoping for a great 2010, and even more Touhou doujinshi for everyone!
I believe it’s safe to guess that, at this time of the year, a lot of us are pretty much just waiting for the holidays to arrive (unless you actually have your birthday in the middle of December, I guess). And, of course, if you are reading this it’s likely that you will be waiting for the next Winter Comiket to take place as well, with it’s avalanche of releases (and the bittersweet pain from the increasing backlog of doujins waiting to be translated…). So, while you are expecting, here are three more releases for you, including the latest from FLIPFLOPs, one of the most popular Touhou doujin circles which was absent to the scene for a while.
FLIFLOPs – Far East Hallucination – Youmu Konpaku’s Chapter
In this long-delayed sequel to the last FLIPFLOPs work, we follow the daily life life of Youmu, a young and energetic schoolgirl living fun adventures with her quirky schoolmates! …no, wait…
Because it’s time to post the update already and it’s late and I’m tired and really can’t think of any clever thematic title (Thanksgiving would have been too easy, and inaccurate), so that’s what you get this time. But well, when we take a look at all you get in this update, I guess it doesn’t look so bad. An epic Scarlet-centered tale by Demour402, the latest work from Can’t Fix the Helmet, the oldest one from Dioxin, and another installment of the Touhou Battle Royale series. I am sure you will find creativity enough in these works to compensate for the lack of it this post, so enjoy!
Demour402 – Here No More
A dramatic (and violent) story about Remilia and Flandre’s past …and about something very dear that they lost.
Yeah, today’s update is a tiny, tiny clever one. Unfortunately some doujinshi didn’t make it out of the QC phase in time for this update, so we only have two releases for now. But if you happen to be a fan of Hot Dog Chuck – of “Yukarin Gigabrows” fame – you’ll definitely like the first one. And if you were long expecting the next volume of the bloody Touhou Battle Royale series, then you’ll like to know that work on this series was taken up again and we have one volume up today. So just follow your dowsing rod to the links below.
Hot Dog Chuck – Chen and the Naughty Sushi
When Gensokyo’s first sushi restaurant opens up, the Yakumo seniors decide it’s time for Chen to be initiated in the secrets of the most famous of Japanese culinary traditions.
ACID CLUB EAST – Touhou Battle Royale Vol. 3
Third part of the series about the cruel game of death and betrayal, blood and tears…
Thanks to Furball, Aratta~♪, Moekou, Nameless Fairy and everyone else!
