I like listening to lofi while I work because it helps me focus, but I don't like when there are vocals, which pop up rarely on the channels I use. I downloaded a 300-song playlist yesterday to sift through and only keep instrumentals... only to find out all 300 had vocals.
hmm maybe the guards and intruders spawn SLIGHTLY too close in this map
This can even make working with Touhou hard sometimes, since names for Spell Cards and other terms are often established already. I still try to check ones I'm unfamiliar with though, and sometimes end up disagreeing with what's there and going with my own translations instead.
"Why did they translate this line like this?" can be a tough question that prompts more questions and consumes a lot of time:
-Is it a translation mistake?
-Do they know something I don't?
-Is it an intentional localization choice?
-Are our styles just different?
I don't really get the recent trend of translators using MTL/AI then "fixing" the text after. I've always hated working with preexisting translations and felt like it only complicates and slows down the process (I hate QC work too!), and that's with 100% human-made translations.
Touhou Lensed Night Sky, Kaseigai will release on:
April 26, 2026, 12:00 am PST
Over one hundred new items.
A maximum of +128 challenge value of curses. More than 50 new achievements.
Performance improvements. Balance changes. Pattern reworks. A whole lotta polish.
And, one new stage...?
Just learned I'd been pronouncing someone's online handle wrong, which got me thinking; I'm not bothered in the slightest when mine is pronounced wrong, but for whatever reason, it DOES bother me (a pretty good amount too!) when it's written with a space between the two words.
I got an email from Stripe saying they'd sent my monthly Ko-fi payout, but noticed the amount was strangely high. Turns out, a recent donation I somehow didn't see the amount of was very (!!!) generous! I already thanked you on Ko-fi, but thanks (!!!) again, very generous person!
I translated @futa313255.bsky.social's Touhou comic titled Can't Stop, Won't Stop (やめられない止まらない).
I'm still having a hard time reading any patterns in Rabbit and Steel that have both butterflies and tethers, but sometimes my Touhou experience comes in handy
Spread out! 2

DarkSlayer415 and I have decided to conduct a survey for English speaking Touhou fans to get an idea of how people listen to and enjoy Touhou music. We hope to use this survey to convince relevant parties to be pay more attention to the international fandom.

Today's translation work!
-Look up a word on Weblio
-It's text from Wikipedia, I want to see the original page
-They only have edit, history, and Wiktionary links, no one-click page link
-Get REALLY irritated from this minor workflow hangup
-Never want to use Weblio again
-Zero work done
＼(^o^)／
This face brings me so much joy
「東方の迷宮」シリーズの制作者の3ペソさんをインタビューする予定で、そして東方我楽多叢誌で公開されます。ファンからの質問も募集したいので、もしお聞きして欲しい質問があればリプ欄に書いていただけると幸いです。ただ、全ての質問がインタビューに出るとは限りませんのでご了承ください。
I'll be doing an interview with 3peso, the creator of the Labyrinth of Touhou series, for Touhou Garakuta Magazine! I'm also accepting questions from fans, so reply to this post if you have a question you'd like asked. (However, not all questions will necessarily be featured.)
- It's finally available! Here is the official trailer for v0.6 of Touhou Danmaku Maze! Can you defeat Patchouli in the Scarlet Devil Mansion?

I can understand if that's still enough to turn you away from going near the game entirely; for me personally though, I've gotten to know 3peso well over the past few years, and I fully trust in his passion and intentions.
3peso has removed all but a very small number of the AI assets in the game. I don't believe the few that remain are planned to be removed. I also don't expect he'll use more moving forward, though.
Just a quick heads up for anyone playing Labyrinth of Touhou Tri: If you're noticing FPS drops when using spells in battle, this is likely just the game's intentional "hitstop" feature that adds a pause to spells for impact! You can toggle it off in the options if you'd prefer.
Labyrinth of Touhou Tri -The Dreaming Girls & the Mysterious Orbs- is finally out on Steam!

Labyrinth of Touhou Tri is finally releasing in less than 2 days! I'm closing the donation period to get your name in the game now; thanks so much to everyone who helped support the translation during this long period!

- We're racing to get v0.6 released but the development team made a value mistake. Poor Dai-Chan was about to feel the full wrath of Cirno....
There's a patch out for Touhou Rock Maiden FC3 that fixes some minor bugs and text errors. You can download it from the link at the bottom of the page linked below; move the contents to the game's folder then run both EXE files to apply it.

The Steam Page for "Cirno! Lifts a Boulder" is now live!
A chill, bite-sized 3D platformer about helping Cirno get back into her house by lifting a big rock.
Please look forward to it!

Capricorn's newest Touhou fangame, Touhou Rock Maiden FC3, has just released on DLsite! (the page still being in Japanese is an error and should hopefully be corrected later on!)

Touhou Danmaku Maze is approaching the new v0.6 update but we thought it would be cool to show off some old concept UI when we were originally planning the game!
