Touhou is ...how can I put this into words...you just can't but I'll try.

To call it a 'video-game' is an insult.

Super Mario Brothers is a video-game

Grand Theft Auto is a video-game

Quake? is a video-game

Touhou ....Touhou is an entity ,a spirit that haunts your thoughts and dreams for the rest of your life , a living ,breathing world in a league of its own.

Life is more of a 'game' than Touhou.
