You know you're not a true Touhou fan when...; Took Wool five months to decide to post this.

Meh, I may be an elitest then. I just know it annoys me when some ppl spout fandom off as truth when canon blatantly states otherwise.

When you cant 1cc at least 4 of the game on at LEast normal
That's called "not being good at SHMUPs". I enjoy playing the games, heck yes, but I can't for the life of me 1cc them, simply because I'm not good at playing these types of games.
Should your fandom be decided by your (in)ability to play the games? No. It should be defined by how much you enjoy playing them.

Read the OP shaney man this is not a thread to explain why one is not good just state when you know your not a true fan and express that point :dunno:

So that makes me not-a Touhou fan? I think not. I'm just not good at the game, and that point does not support that.

Confirmed for doki-doki tier.
I was gonna say that earlier, Shane.
Ghosty, by no means does one have to be able to 1cc, or even be good at any of the games to be a true fan.
That has nothing to do with it. Hands down.
In actuality, Touhou fandom comes from the collective works.
Need it be the games, the music, the literature or the manga.
Yes, there are official lits and manga. If you didn't know that, could you call yourself a true Touhou fan? Yea, you can, actually.
It's the same as any fandom.

Fairly sure I've given up.
Yes, god forbid someone is actually bad at a type of game but loves the series.

Wellp, I prefer the fighting games anyway, and I'm kinda good at them. Not crazed fan good, but I can hold my own against Insane CPUs.. outside of Story Mode.

As opposed to me, who can't even beat a CPU on Easy to save my life... Yeah, I suck at fighters, so what?

When you think Marisa Stole the Precious Thing is an official, canon song.
When you use the McRoll meme at all.
Honestly, you don't have to be GOOD at the games, but if you never play them at all then I don't want to really consider you a fan.
If you are a Youtube commenter who goes to videos of any shmup telling people to play Touhou.

Accurate representation of my internet self. Don't like it? I don't aim to please you.
I've never played past Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, never 1CC'd it on normal, and love Sakuya so much that I can rape anyone as her in IaMP and SWR. I guess I'm not a Touhou fan huh.
