Hello! Welcome to my humble page.

A little bit about myself: I'm a massive fan of music. I especially love music that mixes pre-existing songs/themes into different styles which listeners can recognize (essentially meaning a "remix"). In fact, music is how I got into Touhou!

I guess you could say I'm sort of a newbie to Touhou. This image accurately described my understanding of the game in October 2018, before I started to get into Touhou:

Fortunately, I've evolved and ascended from that state. Now, I can recognize (most of) the characters in the Bad Apple!! vocal video (and name them too!); I understand some of the lore behind each game and their characters; I understand some inside jokes (like how the characters always have something on their head); and I can recognize many of the songs from the main series. I'm still can't remember every character's last names, nor accurately name which game they came from, nor even beat normal mode. But I seriously love and respect this fanbase. You can't find a fanbase so dedicated into a game made by literally one person!


How I got into this Wiki

Sometime in October 2018, I was reminded of the classic Touhou vocal song Cirno's Perfect Math Class. Now, I have this bad habit of downloading too many songs for my own good. I began downloading several vocal covers, surprised by how I found 20 different Flandre covers in one day. But I could had not been prepared for the literal THOUSANDS of songs I would be discovering. First, I decided to do some research on the themes so that I could associate each theme with a character. After reaching over 300 songs in my files, I had to sort each character theme by games. Then, after starting to recognize some of the music styles and voices (like the legendary voice of Stack from Akatsuki Records, and the electro mixes of A-ONE, and everything about Liz Triangle, ShinRa Bansho (which I had no idea was related with Liz Triangle until recently), and Diao ye Zong), I began sorting the songs through bands, or circles.

I began using this wikipedia to translate the Japanese titles to English, just so that I could distinguish the songs better. It worked out for the most part, but every once in a while I would find no translation for the song, or a missing album, or worse no information of the entire circle. For a long time I wanted to help this wiki, given that there were many missing stuff in the music section. So I decided to sign up to this wiki (Thank you so much for inviting me here too, if whoever accepted me here is reading this).
