- WHAT IS EVEN THIS GAME??????
Cirno, Sakuya, Koishi.... Yukkuri?? This oughtta be strange. Touhou Kobuto is a game with mixed opinions that most seemed to have forgotten about. How can people forget a Touhou fangame that released on consoles?? A game inspired by EoSD? A game that later lead to Genso Wanderer? Trust me, as my first legally owned Touhou fangame, I will tell you about whatever this disaster was. Touhou Kobuto V everyone!
It may be a disaster, but at least it had good ost
Also why Youmu here

If you have a problem with my videos or there is a mistake, please DM me on twitter so you can tell me what I did wrong and how I can fix this.
How did they make so many of those
Drugs. You go to hell before you die with them.
@@Suwawako I have this game on switch, I can’t find players so I play it on hard mode
@@dendx3888 hard mode is super easy
I have a video of me and my friend playing Touhou kaboto battle v
They just use the power of drunk god and weird/unique creativity
"The Weird Touhou Fangame"
Do you have any idea how little that narrows it down?
This game has a lot of potential, it just need more characters imo, the Eosd cast is just too raw to make an entire game just for them, so ofc more characters would be nice
Right? Like, even if you like the EoSD cast, they’re mostly just SDM members, so not much variety
Yeah but it should probably change it's name if it gets a new installment, just saying "Kobuto" makes me think of Kamen Rider Kabuto
Disagree, you need to make a theme song, a whole story mode, and new models and voicelines for EACH. ONE.
Chosing a a single 2hu game and making a cast centered on that one is a much smarter decision
@@akiradkcn They can just lower the barrier to entry
The official games have no voice acting whatsoever and they get away with that
The problem is that most people know of the esod cast. So it would make sense to focus mostly on them.
Unfortunately I fall under that category as a very rare meiling fan :( we need more love for her
Why is Koishi in this game?
She wanted a fishing rod
And the moon.
Nooooo
It holds a special place in my heart for being my first Touhou game, but after new competition came with the Genso Wanderer games, Sky Arena, Azure Reflections Spell Bubble and even Antinomy of Common Flowers it's hard to find more positive things to say other than "the UN Owen remix is really catchy"
Another positive thing is that Rumia is playable.
Hello. Is the aocf pvp community active?
@@josephoyek6574 I'm not playing Touhou games online so sadly I can't help you. It's a good question and I would like to know the answer as well though.
Ya know, Reimu helping yokai make disasters actually sounds like something Reimu would do to con the villagers into donating to her shrine because she stopped whatever she started.
Sounds like something my entire oc verse would do to any villian in my oc verse.
"Why should I help you cause chaos you disastrous youkai?"
"cuz the villagers will pay-"
"Aight I'm in"
Rumia's name is spelt ad Lumia because R and L are the same thing in Japanese. Lumia is actually a more proper name considering her ability is darkness manipulation.
I recognize that newer artstyle. It's also used in Genso Rondo Bullet Ballet. Which I always assumed was the first ever Touhou game on a console. (2016 I believe)
Seing this game, they both have a lot of similarities, like the same bland background for all the VN scens with just one strip of location detail in the middle, similar modes with each character getting a story and beating up every other character in said story, an arcade mode, the same artstyle as I said and even similar chibi models.
While I never played Kobuto, I have some fond memories of Bullet Ballet, despite also not being the brightest game out there..
It had a better variety of characters tho.
This game might as well be someone's bizarre fanfic.
Like someone wanted to make a fighter fangame but also heard about Yukkuris and decided to include Reimu's Yukkuri and also focused it mostly around EoSD's cast being incompetent simpletons because EoSD is the only game they've heard about and they mostly went off of what the fandom's done rather than using the official sources.
Seriously, what even is the plot for this game? Remi gets bored so her and Patchy preform a ritual to give her something new to do while Flan does whatever the fanbase wants her to and everyone else is just kinda... there.
Ironically, Flandre was the one positive thing I took from this game iirc. And then I saw the other fanworks and the official materials(Though I am still very surface level with them) and I don't vibe with Flandre anymore, lol.
I remember seeing a nintendo switch copy of this game randomly when looking for something else at a department store. I was so excited to see a Touhou game in the wild that I grabbed my phone and took pictures of it like it was some sort of tourist attraction. I wasn't able to actually buy the game, though.
Idk if this was intentional or not
But this was actually a pretty great timing to release the video LOL
Because apparently it's 2,99€ (or well whatever it is for you) because it is on sale and I've been thinking of getting it (tbf I have like most of the Touhou games that the switch has so yeah) and seeing this gave a bit of a taste about the game itself
Ngl when I saw the frickin Yukkuri being a major part of the story I couldn't help but laugh
I guess beeg Touhou woman heads are very popular even in Gensokyo
you should totally get it if you wana have fun with your friends, it's a real good party game
@Professional Fangster I definitely will!
Especially since every fighting game I have (Touhou 15.5, Jooj bizore) on switch needs 2 joy-cons for uh each person this would be the first one that just needs a singular joy-con (I don't have smash bros LOL)
I’m actually fond of this game as it was one of the first switch games I purchased.
I actually like this game. Maybe Touhou Sky Arena is a better 3D fighter with more content but I liked the simpler gameplay here and the fact that Rumia is playable. I just wish that this game had more playable characters and arenas though.
It was my first Touhou game and holds a very special place in my heart.
I guess I will... Get the game for myself and try playing Youmou, I love her too much to let the opportunity to play her pass.
Also, good video, as informative and interesting as ever, maybe even better!
5:45
Funny, I’m making a Touhou fangame right now as you post this
It’s a 2D game in Scratch and also partially a Dexter’s Lab crossover so not much like this game but still
I got the deluxe version of this game on the switch when it first came out. Wow I forgot the final boss was a Yukuri.
While in theory the mechanics of this game is as deep as any other fighting game, in practice the controls feels very terrible and janky. Also the online play lobby is constantly empty. Somebody made a Discord server for this game. It died after a few months and the owner had a mental breakdown and deleted their account. I still kinda feel bad about it.
1:26
Hirigana doesnt have a “r” but it does have a “ru”
so technically speaking. Rumia’s hirigana is this: るるあ
る = ru
み = mi
あ = a
rurua
i see koishi i click
It's on sale, just when this kind of video was needed. Might actually get it.
As someone who has played this game lots I will not only take you up on your challenge of beat 44 but also the top three characters of the game are remilia then youmu then koishi so the dlc is worth it. Remilias spear just gives me nightmares. You walk down the street and then homing spear that deals 45-70% of your health just snipes you, what a great game!
I actually bought this game on PS4 shortly after I platinumed Genso Rondo, since they were both published by NIS America.
Controls took a while to get used to, but I eventually platinumed it too.
Can't wait for a Video about Touhou Sky Arena
Fun fact: they have an game on Roblox which is like this game (it is gensokyo arena.)
PLEASURE TO SEE YOU
This is the only game that I've bought that made me feel buyer's remorse. Every bad game I buy like Sonic 06 or Wii/PS2 shovelware, I buy knowing I will get ironic enjoyment from. But a Touhou game on Switch? I love Touhou. There's no way this will be bad...
Also, this was my first introduction to the yukkuri. My initial reaction was "WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT THING!?! KILL IT NOW! IT LOOKS LIKE LIVING IS PAINFUL!"
This game is very interesting and has alot of potential for someone or the devs to be inspired and make a Kingdom Hearts like Touhou Fan Game. Since this is very close to it IMO
The camera is like this because Virtual On camera was like this.
I remember on Saturn you can only lock on the character when you dashed or jumped... Fun game though
Rumia is spelt as Lumia probably because her name's romanization isn't present in eosd and I don't think it has been officially spelt and it's speculated that Lumia is in fact correct (like luminous, light and dark stuff)
Oh, I actually played Koubutou back in the day. It was pretty fun, but could use some refinement. I think the OST was good but it's been so long I don't really remember anymore. Very recognizable style though - as soon as I saw the screenshot, I know which Touhou game you're talking about. I think I remember playing it as an alternative to Sky Arena or was just looking for more Touhou fighting games, but it's a pretty unique game on its own.
Talk about Touhou Genso rondo and i loved my video at 8:05 if you want to use i have some videos playing that game =)
Koishi is an imposter on that fangame ඞ👌
So the arena fighter gets to be on consoles, but not any of the mainline entries or even the 2D fighting games?
If ZUN just doesn't want to, that's what's gonna happen. Fangames will do whatever within his guidelines, and that means if somebody wants to get it on a console they can.
@@drpibisback7680 But why WOULDN'T he want the mainline entries on consoles? If Undertale and Cave Story can be ported, so can Touhou.
@@otaking3582 I dunno, I'd guess the main motivator is the fact that he's the sole member of Team Shanghai Alice - he probably doesn't want to hand over the porting job to other people, but his development skillset is all PC so he can't do it himself. But that's just assumption, he's worked with Twilight Frontier on the fighting games so I don't see why he couldn't make it happen somehow. Maybe someone will convince him to do it someday, I've never heard anyone say he's outright _against_ having the series on consoles.
I think its really cool.
koishi
This was my first Touhou game.
I played this on pc a long time ago in 2013 and then bought it on switch a few years ago
source on the clownpiece butt at 5:45?
I legit thought that this would be genskyo odyssey for some odd reason
I think this game is fun, not perfect, but definitely not a 3/10. It works and you can have a good time with it playing with AI or a non competitive buddy.
What hurt it in my eyes was the mistake of charging £37 pound at launch cause it’s too expensive for not enough stuff. On a sale I recommend anyone to try it.
Also it’s the closest we got the the GOAT that is Gundam EXVS ( V-On’ ture successor) on the Switch
I thought this was going to be about I wanna be the Shrine Maiden 2 tbh
Cirno’s story is that she saw a giant monster.. Touhou 12.3?
the yukkuri being important in the story made me laugh
"But(t)" artwork is a Clownpiece by Yassy... 🤔 Good luck reading artist's manga's 🤭
I remember the yukkuri
Oh there are plenty of weird tuhu fangames.
I remember seeing the switch version of this game being sold for like 1,99€, sealed and brand new, i ended up not getting it
KOISHI!!!
Lol. I remember playing this years ago on my laptop. Good times.
Wonder if Super Touhou RPG will get a similar brief cult following after showing that yes, interacting with PC98 characters like Kotohime on the Switch is fair game.
There's rumors that Koishi tortures people who don't like her in their sleep...
I got a sealed copy of this on PS4 for $7, simply so I could get the Platinum.
I am still unsure whether to have regretted that decision or not.
And thanks to the game’s imbalanced AI and the game itself being unbalanced, I have PTSD from Marisa’s “Kurae-!” and the beam noise after.
funnily enough i actually got this game on my switch and played it for a decent amount of time and actually thought it was official
I was offended by the original question of "Why is Koishi here?" because Koishi is one of my favorite characters but then you explained that it's supposed to be only EoSD characters and then started asking that question myself. Like, if you needed more characters go with more PCB characters NOT KOISHI. Maybe it's a KKHTA joke? IDFK. Also that little joke you made at the end with Koishi... well... being herself got a good laugh out of me.
What
"Why Koishi is in this game?" Maybe It's because she's playable in many official Touhou fighting games. Koakuma would make more sense because of the Touhou 6 theming of the game but I prefer Koishi honestly.
@@sonicmaiden2871Yeah, the answer is very obviously "because Koishi is popular."
@@drpibisback7680 that's true as well.
Marisa: let me just SPAM The hell out of 🔺️. Geez, it's op as hell.
A funny thing about this game is that the switch cover is actually translated to other languages, but the actual game isn't. So me and my friend actually got jumpscared by casually finding a Touhou game that had been translated in italian (and reading the back cover was fccking hilarious), so we bought it to see the translation and we found out we just wasted money 'cause the game is only in english
best fangame is remilia eats a sushi roll
this was my first ever touhou game i played
*sees A, B, X, and Y buttons*
Me: Finally! A release for the X
"PS4, Vita, and Switch..."
COME ON MAN! WHO STILL HAS A VITA?
A yes,
Imagine a kkhta fan game lol.
In japanese, they don't have "r"s. They use the "L" sound to replace the english "r"s. Thus Lumia
they do have “ru” though
so her name in hirigana is this: るみあ
る = ru
み = mi
あ = a
This is the first time I have heared anything like that, it is always talked about as the other way around.(For example, Leo is written as Reo, because they just have no way of including the l into the written version of the name)
all i know,, is that theres a giant yukkuri head in this game
i like it
Ah yes, good old Burst Battle V. I had a pretty decent time with it, but I knew from pretty early on that it sucks massively and I never played it again after 100%ing it. That online play was super dead even back then did not help matters. Also, how the heck do I not remember Youmu being in this?
6:23 Wait, it got updated way beyond when I stopped playing? For literally who? I feel like I am the only one bringing this game up these days, so I can only assume I was the last person who has played this on a casual level.(Not literally, but it very well feels like it.) Oh wait, after checking my switch, this now makes sense. I don't remember Youmu because she presumably released after I stopped playing(I just don't own her DLC), she was released in 2019, 2 years after Koichi(Otherwise, maybe I just didn't have any cash for her). Again, for who? Who is still playing this game??? xD Is there a secret competitive scene for this?
The game sold well in Japan, being #2 on the Switch eShop in the 1st week of release and it also made top 30 in sales (27th specifically) across the first half of 2018. So yeah the game was quite active in Japan.
i don't really understand why this game is 2.5 out of 5. It doesn't looks that bad imo
Game looks gun ngl
I have this game for swich I think I'm gotten ok at the game though I guess there not really a smash sence for this I'm only minutes to this video technically this maybe second touhou gane I played the other one was Lost word. Some day I will play real touhou game.
Aren't they all weird
10 seconds in. Touhou pronunciation makes me wanna go deaf
i hated flandre's voice in this. it sounds like she's trying so hard to be cute
baka
Why DOES it have Koishi?
I have this game LoL
I like this game..
I don't care what anyone says it's good
pumpkin spice coffee sounds terrible tho
Ask any Instagram girl at my school
9
I got the game on nintendo switch, it’s ok but its just boring
i dont even care if its bad im so nostalgic for this game
Japanese doesn't really know what a "R" really is, and it sounds closer to a "L" actually.
yes, japanese people calls Rumia as Lumia (and both way to write her name is allowed)
I believe that ZUN has called her "Lumia" before
@@professionalfangster1510 maybe? all I did here was explaining (the best I could) japanese's speech
Or Maybe It's Mistake Name In Other Game Or That's Name Is Another Deleted/Beta Touhou Character Name In Previous Game
Lumia does make sense because her power is reducing light.
Lumia honestly makes more sense, considering that she's a darkness yōkai.
