Touhou 16.5 - Nightmare Journal (Title Screen)

[@Clownplease]

On the missing songs from the soundtrack: Regular Touhou OST does not get claimed for copyright infringement on youtube. The songs on the ZUN CDs do however. Because Violet Detector shares several songs with the CDs, those got copyright claimed. There's nothing I can do about this.

[@mememem]

It definitely evokes a darker feel than in most Touhou games

[@prizmastarz742]

i mean, things get serious shit on DDC and forwards And even this game is *still* continuing "God fucking dammit Sagume" arc

[@EvyDevy]

@@prizmastarz742 I think it was after DDC and 14.3 that things get serious as it dives into Sumireko and Lunarians as well as tying stories together more.

why do the photography game title screens all have rain

[@toaarania2392]

It's supposed to be the sound of tv static, but I don't know why

[@YuuyaKZMI]

@@toaarania2392 I think this one in particular is supposed to have rain at the *start.* IIRC I remember hearing that ZUN wanted to adjust VD to a more horror-ish setting due to most "nightmare diary"-based games being horror games. This explains the normally out-of-place blood drip in the background when you start the game.

The new Yume Nikki looks great

[@raccoonchild]

Finally a new Yume Nikki that's actually good :'y

didn't knew yoichi liked danmaku games

[@plorn1303]

It’s good to see the Zun horns are still alive and kicking.

[@BmacSoundsLab]

They Never Die! :D

[@rebmundten9961]

Sounds so eerie....so mysterious.... I like it!

[@nekoprankster2184]

Already?! I haven’t even finished 15 and 15.5 yet!

[@THRWOW]

An intro theme that isn’t “Theme of Eastern Story?” Interesting but idk if I like it yet or not. Has an ominous dreadful premonition which is nice but doesn’t feel as touhou like

[@eirinyagokoro8747]

Stephen Mccullough if you listen very closely you can hear the piano in the background making similar arpeggios based off theme of eastern story

[@THRWOW]

Eirin Yagokoro I see it now thanks. It’s very subtle

[@KoishiMochi]

@Plagued Man You mean that one video about touhou music stuff??

[@theturtwig50]

This title theme is freaking wonderful

[@sakayanegi]

This sounds darker than the others title screen themes and I love it

[@krustygraze189]

The first 10 seconds sounds like ZUN about to drop bars with that dope 🔥🔥🔥 beat Also VD is apparently gonna have a darker mood to it, especially in contrast to th16. Title theme sounds hella promising

[@alphamoon8367]

*About to sleep at 3am* *Suddenly remembers abot Touhou 16.5 being released* Now I can't sleep.

[@thepriest2278]

now that I hear it noticed that it has a very different rhythm to all the title screen of other touhou

[@prizmastarz742]

Maybe call this "Diary of Nightmares" ? -Well i know it's LITERALLY the same meaning as the Nightmare Week title theme, but the structure at least makes it different so- ////idkhonestly

[@KKYY12]

Sounds nice

[@MasakiHana]

Oh finally, this is a better Isekai Smartphone.

[@alphamoon8367]

I cannot unsee the resmblance.

[@greatdetectivefurudoerika1589]

Please delete this

[@silp5283]

Masaki Hana I guess so

[@sylvierose2799]

LMAO

[@piotrnapora5810]

That's a low set bar

I can't believe sumidork dies in the end

WELCOME BACK BOI

[@zekrom129]

You're back

[@NEOthefriendlyYoutuber]

The music sounds amazing is this legit?

[@ll-qt4mi]

soo, what is the camera going to be in the next photo game? a GoPro?

[@C0deSlasher]

Hey, you might want to check the new translated title for this on Touhou Wiki ;)... could help distinguish it from the Week 3 theme.

[@Clownplease]

Thanks, I didn't realise the wiki was already complete.

[@hairglowingkyle4572]

This is creepy kek

[@y.m.7624]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[@juancruzlugones1858]

Sounds like an intro for a loquendo creepypasta video...

[@raccoonchild]

Disgusting. Take that back immediately

[@juancruzlugones1858]

Raccoon Child it is true tho :p

[@BTS-bd7qm]

ZUNがまたやったゾ

[@n.h.alicia3278]

ああ。

[@Reitenshii]

No Eastern Story, as I predicted. Though it has a number on the franchise, the title doesn't acknowledge Violet Detector as a Touhou game, thus the lack of the Eastern Story motif.

[@thepriest2278]

ya saliooooooooooooooo : already leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeft

[@hrkinezz4419ez]

tik tok lol

[@BlankPxl]

I love some and dislike some of the tracks in 16.5... I mean, I get what ZUN is trying to portray but it doesn’t feel Touhou enough for me... yet... Oh well, just ⑨⑨⑨ more listens to go

[@phosphophyllite4591]

* reads description * So... Can I have the dl link?
