Otaku losses continue to mount with the news that top Touhou doujin event Reitaisai, formerly due on the 13th of March, is to be cancelled as a result of the quake.
Its venue is none other than Big Sight, which is now said to be undergoing safety checks. Major damage is not reported, so TAF, due in weeks, is unlikely to be affected.

and nothing of value was lost :)
But but but my flood of Touhou doujin goods!
ಠ_ಠ
I didn't like Touhou b4 too, but now after I gave it chance its actually quite interesting. They all have funny hats :)
It's all about the headgear, isn't it.
So it's out early:
"Japan cancelled by Quake"
All is not lost, it's just been delayed.
Just delayed?
Unlikely.
The next time we can get our Touhou goods is either on Comiket or some of the smaller events.
I consider this to be good. Sure, Touhou goods will not be sold as expected, but could you really imagine if they had gone ahead with the event in lieu of the current emergency?
Without a doubt a very good decision, lest you want the media give the whole event a "backlash" of scorn.
If They going to let TAF to continue,now thats what I called heartless.At least wait until June,then can people go on with events like that.Remember that the Tokyo area was also hit.
Ishihara: "I feel sorry for all the losses the otaku have suffered all across japan, therefore i feel happy to announce that manga ban is now cancelled, to relief at least some of the pain otaku are suffering at this moment of grieve"
Ishihara would die before he would say something like that. It's useless to even joke about it ..
Most likely this happened because of the frustration and helplessness Japan felt about the Tokyo elections.
Why couldn't he have died in the quake.
Ishihara died due to earthquake, and been swept away by the tsunami!
the world isnt that nice u know....
Too bad you'll eventually wake up from that dream
And what is the name of this guy who stole Ishihara's skin?
No... No... NO!!!
Just give a thought that if any anime studio was wipe out by the Quake ... Worst case scenario, anime/manga artists were among the casualty ... I bet one or two series will be canceled.
I hope everyones ok whole thing is just a load of shit. Norihiro Yagi better still be amoung the living I already own claymore 1-17 I want an ending man!
I hope ZUN is okay.
I hope Ishihara is not...
+1
No wait...
ITS OVER 9000!!!!
he's been making twitter updates, he's fine
Good to know~
Capitalizing headlines words single letter is evil... I thought it was being canceled by Quake, not quake. As in, id Software's Quake.
That's the joke.
A Quake that size deserves capitalization, I think.
Hell,a Quake that size deserves capslock.
Quake hits Japan... LOL!
I think TAF has already suffered enough losses to be considered a disaster zone.
Touhou will rise again.
I understand the issue, safety comes first, and
godSuwako knows what it means to host such a crowded event (4000 circles this edition, if I recall correctly). It would have surely backfired in the media, given the current situation.But anyway... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Tenshi, that wasn't the Hakurei Shrine! It's not even Gensokyo, how did you miss the target by that much?
She got bored and wanted to hit something other than in Gensokyo
But to do that, she needed to go outside Gensokyo. To do that, she need a gap.
Godammit Yukari!
Yukari hate Tenshi, why she help her ?
cause yukari loves to stir troubles
Yukari kicked Tenshi outta Gensokyo. Tenshi is trying to force her way in again.
Looks like it's time for a spanking...

Because she got bored in heaven so she stirs things up on earth
Lousy catfish and bored celestial.
I seen the news. It's better to stay indoors now it's safer if you die now it won't be any more con for you. I hope that Big Sight is ok because it's like a symbol for otaku !
I can just picture Ishihara in a dark office, Gendou posing with an evil smirk on his face...
"Just as planned."
Sometimes I read comments and cant realize if some of you people are real, retarded or what.
Japan is a mess right now, and you are worried about doujin, cosplay and Ishihara. Honestly I think some people here have a sexual obsession with this guy.
I think you're mistaking this for a serious, respectable forum of discussion.
Even this place has exceptions for chaotic events and special cirucumstances 4 chan has a sticky on theirs and they have more trolls than well mmm they have the most trolls lol
really? you're trying to be serious on a website based around trolling people? LOL
I don't know what you expect people to do.
There's already a thread on this and it's being covered all over the Internet elsewhere.
What the fuck do you want people to do? Just stop doing anything and pray 24/7 till it's fixed? Some people...
dont loose hope now u never know when he is coming i hope you are all safe
Does this mean no Touhou 13??!
Nah, it takes longer than that to make - losing the event won't kill the game. There's still 2 Comikets a year.
