The Touhoufest Experience

[@Suwawako]

To those that visited me at Touhoufest, thank you so much. You overwhelmed me greatly (in a good way), never would I expect to meet so many fans there (like that guy who got his balls grabbed, the Mokou who went to Oman or the guy who carried my hat), I am honored to serve you all with joy. 💚💚 To the new friends I met there, hey, I hope our friendship can stand the test of time! Let's meet again at Touhoufest 2024! And to the cosplayers/people who were featured in the video, uhhh self promote yourself here or talk about your favorite memories. I don't want my perspective to be the only one existing of this convention. I am only one guy, but more than seven-hundred were in attendance, so there are probably lots of memories that are waiting to be told!! 2024 will come before we know it. Who knows, maybe I will sell stickers or be featured as a guest? (lol nope)

Hey, Cirno!

[@lyrica-live]

That was a wonderful summary of a wonderful event, and I'm so glad that you captured these memories in video. Also, best KaguMoko intro clip ever. Your only flaw is that you did not attend my super-awesome interactive karaoke session. Hmph!~ I missed a lot of going-ons myself, due to busyness, so I enjoyed the perspective of an attendee with different focus. The little things are really what make the big picture, right? Standout cosplayers, and mass bonding over funny plushies, it really captures the overall fun atmosphere. Most of all, the story about Kanako was very poignant to hear. ;v; It's relatable, in that various kind comments and gestures - brief moments of connection with individual people who have known my work online for years, yet who are a once-in-a-lifetime face-to-face encounter - are at the peak of my personal highlights from the festival as well. I met followers, and friends, and people I admire, while also meeting people in completely different circles of the Touhou fandom was a great experience too. It was truly a celebration of community around the powerfully inspirational thing that we all love, and that was the core of what made it so magical! By the way, you and I only spoke rather briefly, but I had fun meeting you and your Suwako Fumo! I knew of you from a handful of videos beforehand (good videos), but I feel closer from the positive vibes you gave off in person, and I'm happy to be more properly following you now. Thanks for the compliment on my signature~ And thank you again for this lovely memento of a montage!

Hey Suwawako, it was great being your first match in the tourney! I can’t help but feel as though we were kind of the “test subjects” for getting all of those issues worked out, lol... I don’t think anyone else had as long of a setup period as us. While I didn’t get as far as I wanted in the tourney, it was still super fun to play, and it was also really cool to meet you. (P.S. when you showed me that picture of Armada I was internally hysterical, the likeness was uncanny)

Anyways, I think YT auto-deletes comments with links in them these days, so posting this once again - I was the Merry violinist who performed first solo on Sat (this footage is just of practice though ;-;) and then with TAM! It was truly a dream come true for me and the culmination of over 7 years of anticipation. I've uploaded the full vid of my performance w/ TAM on my channel as of last week.

Donut Kanako here. Thank You Suwawako for the shout-out. Less than a month before TouhouFest, your channel start popping up in my KZbin feed. Some of your videos are great to get Touhou newcomers a quick digest. When I read your Tweet during breakfast haul, I felt helping you to get a taste of your desire early is more important than being Suwako as planned. Sorry for making you nervous at first, but I'm glad you had a lasting memory at the end. 30:16-30:21 I plan to retire from cosplaying in the near future, even though it is one of my favorite pastimes. You made a great TouhouFest Recap video. Looking forward to your future videos and see you outfit when it comes to fruit.

[@riotshield2053]

I am the person you met with the TouhouCon bag. I didn't know about your channel prior to Touhoufest but it was a pleasure to meet you. Per our small conversation I will share my experiences at TouhouCon 2014, TouhouCon 2015, and TouhouFest. To say in advance that even though some parts may sound negative, I genuinely enjoyed all of them. The eleven years that I have been interested in Touhou, I am the only person between my family, co-workers, and close friends that is interested in it. All these conventions gave me the chance to experience it with others. TouhouCon 2014 I was able to plan months in advance for it finding a close hotel and paying the $20 early bird two day pass. I was one the first people there so I didn't have to wait in line. Pocky was one of the sponsors and they provided some free Pocky to each attendee each day. My two goals for the event was to partake in the tournaments and see how many different Touhou characters were being cosplayed. In my prior experience at AnimeExpo I saw a total of 6 different Touhou characters and I was hoping that this event would provide more variety. I had fun in the tournaments but lost in the prelimaries. I was still relatively new to Touhou as I first started playing in 2012. They were streaming all of the tournaments to Twitch and one of my matches ended up on there (embarrassingly). They had a technical issue and had my name messed up in their registry. Another issue that they had was that the power went out for while they were running a League of Legends tournament. I showed up to the convention with a list of the Touhou characters and I made a mark next to the ones that saw cosplayed. I currently can't find that list but I don't think I threw it away. I will either find it one of these years by accident or it ended up in Gensokyo. I believe I saw somewhere between 30 to 40 different Touhou characters. I didn't bother to see any of the panels (they just aren't my thing) and headed back to my hotel room to do college work. I didn't bother either to stay for the "Saturday Night Fever (18+) dance/gathering". The next morning I used the hotel internet to see what people were posting and it looked people had a good time. There was however a video of a Byakuren cosplayer that I saw at the convention. That video had that person and someone else performing activities on a bed that I don't think Byakuren would approve of. Also I saw through tweets that one of the Guests of honor either Okageo or Junkers (don't know which one) had some of their items damaged by staff security. Apparently a staff member got access to their room and held a rambunctios party. I spent the second day watching the tournaments, buying some merch, and talked and shook hands with someone who was working on a Touhou themed Smash game (I won't go into details about what happened to that mess as I think Suwawako might have made a video about it already). TouhouCon 2015 Same thing as TouhouCon 2014 in that I planned in advance and got the early bird three day pass (it was somewhere between $20 to $30). I was still in college and didn't have any problems being there on a Friday. Pocky was still being given out and I had additional goals besides my prior two. There were three concerts that were going to happen and I wanted to see at least two of them (TAM & Akai Ryuusei both performed on Friday and the singer from Yuuhei Satellite performed on Saturday) I ended up seeing all three of them and bought music cds. The convention was near DisneyLand so after the concerts where finished you can see fireworks outside. The other new goal was that offical copies of the Touhou games were being sold by the president of Reitaisai so I made sure to buy a few. First day of tournaments and there were technical difficulties, not everything was setup before hand and the hotel wasn't providing internet to anyone (not even the staff of the event). As a result many tournaments were delayed which caused a few of the participants to leave. Because of this the matches couldn't be streamed either. The PoFV tournament only had about 20 participants after that. I had no problems waiting for them and ended up placing third in the PoFV tournament only losing to first place and second place. I got better at the game and the person who got second complemented the way I played Sakuya. My reward for third place was about the equivalent of $20 of Steam Keys and an email congratulating me. Someone who cosplayed as Yoshika Miyako got first place in one of the tournaments and won a hover board. The next day they were riding it around the hotel with their arms in front them zombie posed. In those three days I saw a total of 74 different Touhou characters. I had a wonderful time at the convention but using the internet at my hotel room I can see that people had mixed opinions of the event. One problem was that security was overcompensating for prior year and were very strict. During the performances people were allowed to record the events but security was telling people not to. After the convention I found out that the organizers made promises that they couldn't keep which became a burden for the guests of honor and others. They later made a video announcing that they will work out the problems and that they are considering having a TouhouCon 2016 (I believe that video is gone). TouhouFest 2023 TouhouFest, unlike the two TouhouCons was held in April instead of September. This is a challenge for me because the most stressful part of my job is from January through mid April which doesn't give much time to handle other things. I had no idea that TouhouFest 2023 was going to happen until Megapig9001 did a stream in March (I found his channel and stream by pure luck). I decided to book a hotel for the two day event and and paid the $60 for the event (too late for the $40 early bird special). My three goals were to partake in the PoFV tourney, see different cosplayed characters, and watch TAM's performance again. The tournament recomended for people to preregister with an online account. I did so and the tournament then suggested that people should keep track of the results by looking online while at the convention. I informed the organizer that my mobile internet is unreliable and he said he will have a wireless access point available. I didn't show up super early so I had to wait in line. When I got my attendee badge I saw that they made a mistake on my name (nothing new at this point). I then rushed to the game haul because I was in the first wave of tournament and didn't want to be late. As Suwawako said they had technical difficulties and the tournaments were delayed. My internet wasn't working properly so I asked the staff about the internet and told that it was for staff only (this is still better than what happened in TouhouCon 2015 and there were no power outages which is better than TouhouCon 2014). I think these issues might be a reason why only parts of the tournaments were streamed. I then spent my time prior the tournament trying to help staff with keyboard issues. When the tourmanet began I had a good time and went 4 wins and 2 losses which dropped me out of the tournament. I ended up losing to the people that got second and third place out of 30 (congratulations to them, they certainly earned it). One of my matches was against Suwako and it was fun match. My internet still had problems throughout the entirety of the convention and my hotel room, which was a bit of a walk compared my other two, did not provide free internet (my fault for quickly booking a room). I left the convention early because I didn't want to be walking the streets at night. I ended up seeing 61 different Touhou characters being cosplayed which is great for a two day event. Day two I bought music from TAM before the concert as I figured the line would be crazy afterwards. I enjoyed the concert and as Suwawako stated there were problems with the speakers. I then and headed back to home before LA traffic became too bad (still a four hour drive). I figured that they will have the tournments streamed and that I could watch the results afterwards. When I got home I noticed that my tournament results were off and I asked the person that I actually lost to (not the person that the online results said I lost to) about match events which confirmed that there is an error on in the online brackets. I messaged the orginazer that Sunday night and Tuesday morning I was told that he will inform the person that was running that section of the tournament. As of writing this comment that part of the bracket is still incorrect. I told Suwawako in advance that if I made this comment it would be extremely long (maybe too long). I enjoyed all of them and my personal rankings would be TouhouCon 2015 > TouhouFest 2023 > TouhouCon 2014. If the people who organize TouhouFest 2023 continue to keep their promises (unlike TouhouCon) I can see them doing bigger and better next time.

You won fair and square (totally, maybe, kinda.) Now I think about it, if I decide to remake my Touhoucon video, would you like to be apart of it?

[@riotshield2053]

@@Suwawako Good games indeed. Funny thing though is that of one the people I won against was the other Sakuya player you played which resulted in a Sakuya mirror match. At TouhouCon I didn't partake in any of the panels and didn't spend much time in the merch sections so a lot of my knowledge of stuff is limited. I felt more like an old man explaining past memories in my posted comment.

I've had run-ins with other Touhou fans within online games I play, and its always a great experience; they're some of the most chill internet denizens I've met. I'm not sure what it is about it, but there's something about the bond that we share as Touhou fans that instantly brings us together. Just as Lyrica and Lori-hime sing in what is perhaps my favorite cover if theirs, "when the world feels wrong, [we] can turn towards this one that's been with [us] all along," ZUN really has made something that can unite people all over the world.

Cause although I could never have dreamed of going there this year, seeing you and everyone having tons of fun with the stuff they love just made watch the whole video with a big dumb smile on my face... Hope that event keeps going on for many years to come so more people can go too! Love from Brazil

I was also really pleasantly surprised by how well the event was run for a first time. Hopefully the staff can continue growing and developing it slowly and carefully!

maan, I wish i want to go to Torrance California for Touhoufest..

[@MarkStillPlays]

i wish something like this existed in germany since the touhou fans over here are scarce(((( oh well, maybe one day in the future

[@LordAlexander-x5s]

I almost went, but I was unsure of myself so didn't go, but after this video I feel so warm and inspired I really want to go next year. I hope I can do a really faithful and accurate byakuren cosplay.

[@kuneehoo]

8:19 is this the guy from Bread Boys?

[@bappityyyy]

Goodness seeing stuff like this makes me wish I could live near LA so I could go to Touhoufest hhhhhhhhhhhh (I live on the east coast) I'm glad everyone had fun though! Maybe I'll try to work out a way for me to somehow go next year even though I am (and still will be then) a teenager, though probably not Kinda just hoping that maybe someday there'll be a Touhou convention in NYC or somewhere on the east coast, because I would certainly attend then. It all seems so fun!

[@InternationalspacestationUTAU]

[@Suwawako]

[@TheTotallyNoob]

I knew this happened but yknow living in Germany doesnt really give me the chance to attend these so I enjoy and am grateful for these videos!

[@Tha2442]

I never really get to attend fests or conventions due to stuff like time and money, but at least we got to see it through your eyes Maybe i’ll be able to attend 2024 or not, who knows
