東方嘘偽樂 -Enjoy April Fool's Day-

[TheCreepyChuwnLi]

So, a Touhou fan is responsible for the earthquake, all becomes clear now.

[HimuraCruz]

If they can put effort into making this video, WHY NOT ACTUALLY MAKE THE GAME?!?!?! </3

[siladel]

Akjafhskfjsk Valkyrie Profile 1 is a great game

They know we would love a Touhou one >.<

[TouhouAnimator]

I certainly did not enjoy April Fool's Day. NOW GIMME THAT GAME EVEN IF ITS NOT REAL

[FedExScarlet]

This is like Border of Hate and Love:

Love them for being able to do this.

Hate them for doing it XD.

[ZiozoneEmperor]

I AM SO FUCKING MAD AT THE PEOPLE WHO MADE THIS

[dlwk1988]

well..Blizzard is official gaming company..where as i believe this is a Fan-Work?

i mean i was totally convinced that this is a game itself, sadly its not

[Animenism]

I wanna play this, wait what? April Fool's Day?

[NonRandomUser]

MAXIMUM TROLLING

[nailstare]

I too, was heartbroken by the realization of this being... a joke.

[TheLordEnki]

...god damnit.

I want to play this shit.

[Natakash1]

Must play, must play must-......Gah...What?!

[cesdavid]

VAKLYRIE PROFILE 1 SYSTEM THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[reccaman58]

man, April Fool's taken to a whole new level. by the way, anyone know if the song is a remake of another or if it is an original? Sounds familiar to me, that's all.

[KiraHunter12]

@reccaman58 It's a remix of "Sleepless Night of the Eastern Country" from Shoot the Bullet

[reccaman58]

@KiraHunter12 thank you very much

[darksahde]

I have to say, this video is really nicely made even though it's April Fool's joke. I would like to see this game for real.

[MrOrbotron]

OH WOW! THAT LOOKS SO COOL! I REALLY WANNA PLAY IT...OH...WAIT.

[coolman5242]

A action-rpg that advanced only can be an april fools joke

[GentlemanAeon777]

This reminds me EXTREMELY much of Valkyrie Profile...

Check it if you dont believe me.

[jap0112]

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUU­UUUUUUUUCK

[illustriouschin]

the characters look like they were drawn by a weeaboo but the rest looks pretty good. and quite an elaborate joke that yes, pisses me off but only because they are wasting talent on poop instead of just making a real game out of it.

[Algamyst]

@illustriouschin

...close. The characters were designed by a Japanese man.

[illustriouschin]

@Algamyst Weeaboos wish they were close. ;P

[DzonatanGavert]

He made the system eh? Somehow this whole game looks like Valkyrie Profile from PSX with Reimu instead of Lenneth, Touhou cast instead of Einherjar and Gensokyou instead of Midgard.

[DzonatanGavert]

@DzonatanGavert

Also look at the spell at 0:30 Celestial Star from Valkyrie Profile anyone?

[colonel24567]

you know why make it an apiril fool's joke, just finish it look hes half way donr.

[llednaroth]

RAGE

seriously, they should have just gone and made it after all the work of making half an engine.

[ChrisABlair]

8 people prevented this game from coming into being.

[234Spotman]

@HanyuanLi mix it with vocaloid and u got the best thing ever.

[234Spotman]

You get fooled unless u read the comments and stuff. And most ppl don't, so they think its cool, and leave. So some of those touhou fans hearts don't break. Us smarter ones who READ stuff have to suffer. WHYYYYYY????

[234Spotman]

This is a JOKE?! TT^TT WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHY

[tailsnick]

Finish the damn game! Don't just show awsome things and be done you slacker!

[Kichuraful]

I wouldn't even care if it wasn't an official game. Even if it was a fan-made game and only half-made, I'd still play it.

Damn, I just died inside. :/

[OmniGman]

sibladeko - Seriously Japan, why do you do this?

Me - Because the Japanese take their trolling VERY seriously!

[Acelif]

Wait...this isn't real? OMG

[superradiobomb]

i wish the guy who did this changed his mind and actually completed a game for this

[l112]

... seriously, someone got so pissed at this april fools joke that someone actually made a fan game out of it... i found the demo too!

[dlwk1988]

@l112 reli?cool i think i saw the demo,but it doesnt even close to what's been shown here,though the concept is there though

[234Spotman]

@l112 GIVE IT TO US. NOW.

[GabePuratekuta]

Fuck paying!! I'll MAKE it if I could!!

[Night4ce1]

TT_TT

Why a joke.. This is the worst form of torture EVER!!!

[XWatchLearnX]

i just died on the inside..

[ruukarm]

This video is too much to be left as it is... a prank video! :S

[Kamui1999Shiro]

Wow! This game is AWESOME! Oh wait...

[cijferr]

i would pay that game...... big time

[squiigle]

You know, if they actually did this, they would be pretty fucking rich. Is it really worth it to torture us for the lulz? It would be a win-win situation.... D:

[TheSoldierIsaSpy]

Amazing how far someone will go for epic lulz.

[TheMegaMagikarp]

If ZUN ACTUALLY loved us he would make this.

[dlwk1988]

this is no more a mere april fool's joke, everytime i come back here is mental torture and i'd cry on every april fools day becoz of this

[Ducilios]

The japanese take Aprils fools seriously.

[mrxai658]

a game engine just for april fools day..:[ ] ahhh thats some fool got fooled there alright

[commode7x]

This is how the Japanese do April Fools.

Westerners got NOTHING on them.

[Mance200]

@commode7x Electronic Gaming Montly could prove you wrong.

[kevinlei92]

@commode7x

lol then you probably havent see what blizzard employees does for april fools, lets see where should we start, the EPEEN meter? the Horadric cube app for the ipod? 8 bit world of warcraft expansion? microsoft paperclip dungeon helper? xbox kenix starcraft 2 match? TERRA-TRON? Tauren marines? yea, when it comes to screwing around, i'm pretty sure that it doesn't matter where your from, you just have to have the ability to joke around

[zappazoey]

As someone else told me, this must be footage from a game that they WERE actually making for real. But then something must've happened that halted production and probably made it nearly impossible for them to be able to finish the game and put it out on the market. And so, they must've taken footage from the scrapped game and put it out at least as an April Fool's joke :\

[I0IIiP0p]

I read the comments and I noticed that many people hated this April Fools joke.

However, I looked at the "Like" and "Dislike" bar and the Dislike Bar only has 5 dislikes, while the Like Bar has, let's see, ... 210. I don't really get people these days... ._.

[LevantineR1]

@I0IIiP0p People do contradictory things when their hearts are torn in two.

[frznfido]

"Hey, We finally came up with a cure to cancer! HA! April Fools!"

[Jani442]

OH MY GOD! Are you really saying that this is just an april fool. I mean seriously. If they would ever release game similar to this it would hit a JACKPOT for the company producing this. They really have to get this done and not leave it to be the way it is as an april fool! PEOPLE ARE WILLING TO PAY FOR GAME LIKE THAT YOU KNOW!?!?

[ShikigamiChenYakumo]

Why dont they finish this DX

[SkyFormToad]

ffffffff.....

it need to be real D:

[Dayntei]

A slightly scaled equivalence would be, blowing up half of the Earth, giving everyone AIDS, and all the unborn Harlequin disease. And saying APRIL FOOLS... Okay, maybe I exaggerated, but you get my point.

[ruukarm]

@Dayntei This is seriously... bad.

Have you read what you wrote?

[Dayntei]

@ruukarm Allow me to make it alot cleaner then... It'sa DOWNER!

[Hawelo92]

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF-

[WatcherCCG]

Only the Vippers of 2chan would go to this much trouble just to jack with a fanbase. If it's someone else, I'll be surprised.

[Thejebe]

What is the theme playing in this vid?

[zebrin]

Now... someone needs to actually make this game. Fuck... for an April fools joke this looks GOOD! Hell, almost like a $50.00 game good.

[vintagegodz]

An april fools joke has never made me cry before now.

[dlwk1988]

damm,this is just....brutal..for an april fools joke. april fool joke are supposed to make sum1 relieved that it is joke,not like this!! T.T

[Drakens1024]

Maybe... the joke is saying the game is a joke... some kind of advanced joke-inside-a-joke..

Let me dream ;_;

[carlunaden]

GAH!!!! YOU GOT ME!! D:

[DragonGodXIII]

Okay, this actually gives me some pretty good ideas.

In other news, if I had the money, I'd so fund this to be a real project.

[UltraSixtyFore]

what type of sick monster does this as an april fools joke : (

[ford13kun]

i like the song

[Pretztailfan95]

They should know that doing this will give us a bad image of Japan. I think the things Japan does is worse than what we "gaijin" do. Well, besides taking memes to a limit where the entire joke is ruined. (Cirno)

[LovelyYTRocks]

"completes 99% of a game"

J/K! IT WAS ONLY A JOKE!

GOTCHA!

APRIL FoOO0oOoOLZ!

[RonjaNoku]

Sorry. I cried on my April Fool's Day thanks to this.

*Shake fist*

[nyasuke1]

The Japanese spends all the talents on the thing that can be laughed.

The waste of the talent is an everyday experience in Japan.

[humrH2360]

All of that work... for a joke? Imagine how much money this would've made!!!!!

[blooodybladez]

Maybe the game itself is call

Touhou -Enjoy April fool day-

And they might be planning to release it on the 1st april

NOTE: This is what I think about. Not totally exactly true, but there some hope

[Tk3997]

Well it is a pretty good April fools joke for the exact reason you wouldn't expect someone to waste so much effort on one thus resulting in real surprise.

Not that explaining this to the lynch mobs will necessarily save you, but A for effort at least.

[willyolio]

OMG somebody make this real! i am willing to offer my first born son.

[John777tino]

Once again The Jap torture us whit another PAINFUL fake game screen shot. This time they use Touhou Profile (some shot really look like Valkyrie Profile)

[Nazuiko]

@John777tino I think it looks more like Tales ... but ive never played VP so

[ruukarm]

@Nazuiko I don't really know what TalesOf you've played so far [...seriously...] but this is EXACTLY like Valkyrie profile, especially the formation and the attacks [the spell with rays of light, or Remilia flying with her wings - Nibelung Valesti anyone?] are a nice copy of VP.

[jagus12]

Yes... Apparently, they created A FUCKING GAME ENGINE for an april fools day, DAMN YOU JAPAN!

[residentidiot2009]

@jagus12 Actually, they hacked one.

[8915razer]

If this was made, this would be the greatest touhou rpg fan-game ever to exist.

[KonataMokona]

oh man. that is REALLY unfair.

[Aurasword90]

Wait...a touhou RPG?

....fuck, this DOES need to get made

[TouhouFantasia]

God, I remember this.

Why you do this!?

[HarvestMoonHero]

Orz

Curse you, April Fools Day...

[darkdill]

This would've been a great game were it actually made. Too bad it wasn't... :(

BTW, I know the music is a remix of Sleepless Night of the Eastern Country, but does anyone know WHICH remix it is? Or is it a standalone that can't really be found outside this video?

[nysan2000]

嘘＝lie

偽＝fake

樂＝enjoy

orz

[tkayube]

April Fool's Day leads to laziness?

[arvelous]

I appreciate this guy effort to get people thinking about this type of game. So someone might actually create in the future.

[ShadowAimai]

May some benevolent deity hear you...

[ultimatesend]

ive seen this many times and always think its fucking gay how its not real. it would be a bad ass game if it were real

[Level2Corn]

I want to stab this person

Several times

In the face

[CyrusValentine]

I hate this guy so much.....

[GeoffTaucer]

Holy fucking Flying Spaghetti Monster, this is a LOT of work for somebody to go to for an April Fool's joke.

[residentidiot2009]

@GeoffTaucer It's a hack of Valkyrie profile.

[Coramelimane]

@residentidiot2009

This is nothing at all like Valkyrie Profile.

[residentidiot2009]

@Coramelimane It's called modifying. For example, if I hacked a sprite of Sora from Kingdom Hearts into Final Fantasy 6, it's a hack. They altered a significant amount of the game and adopted it into a fake Touhou, so technically, it's a hack of Valkyrie Profile.

........................OMFG, I'm a nerd.

[Coramelimane]

@residentidiot2009 I don't know what Valkyrie profile games you've played, but none of the mechanics, sprite animations, or even the menu display are anything at all like Valkyrie profile's, either mechanically even aesthetically.

[ruukarm]

@Coramelimane IT IS from VP, the first one precisely.

Try to actually watch the video, with some practice you'll notice.

[Maduo]

@GeoffTaucer

Dude, this is nothing in comparison to what they could have done to make an april fools joke ;-)

But you have to ask yourself, what happens if they put too much work into it? other ppl will get ideas and try to use/mimic it, thus, you have to hold back "just" enough so that you can say "GOTCHA!"

[PhrozenFox]

@GeoffTaucer Just like the one LoZ movie, they could have finished it but honestly.

[SonividSulegnaEkez]

@GeoffTaucer meaning that there is a real one out there... but the owner/maker is probably never going to release it... thus it stays as a cruel prank... it's not really even a joke.... more like a troll actually. "0h h3y, I haz dis and joo can'tz has it, lololololol, April Fooz!asdfomgwtfbbqroflmaololwu­t"

[TranceCore3]

who ever invented april fools needs to die now.

[HeroofWind1]

*sigh* This would've completely won the internet... If it were real.

[cYsmix]

JAPAN.

[TheStickFigureMaster]

THIS

WOULDVE

BEEN

SO

EPIC.

T^T

[digifire1322]

:D Valkyrie Profile spin off!

D: april fools day. DAMN YOU!!!

[pongpol]

This had got to be one of the worst April Fool's joke ever. -_-" If you're gonna do something like this then don't quit halfway!

[girlpower128]

I want this game very MUCH!!!

I wish the download is exist.

[Vulcapyro]

It exists does not.

[EwImOnline]

i remember this. i was totaly having a nice april fools day untill i saw this i felt so down its like one of the most worst joke to touhou fans ever T- T

[BowShoushi7]

I don't think I can post links uhh...

If none of you saw it yet, I went searching the home-site and found some hidden content pages. They were probably there before and maybe it "was" going to be a game.

Add to the end of the URL

contents/001.htm

contents/002_1.htm

contents/002_2.htm

contents/003.htm

-goes up to 015-

[BowShoushi7]

Ou and Reimu combined with Wriggle at :42 !

[Twila27]

Yeah, using the spell card "Firefly Phenomenon" as an in-field item to light up the cave, is what your links tell me. Thanks for finding the hidden pages. ^^~

All the stuff they have listed kinda makes it hard to believe this is just a joke. ^^;;

[YoshKYoshi]

I love how the vid is on sync with the music but seriously! I understand if the data got curropted or something but if its actually a trick D:<

[Twila27]

*Still is frantically searching for the sprites used in the video.* Uwaaaaaah~~!

[SpeedyEXE2]

Japan......why do they hate us T_T Making awesome games like this and not sharing is one thing. But a freaking teaser to a game no one can get? Now thats just too far.

[weiyi1994]

i laughed so much at this, just like japanese people to make something so awesome a joke

[Pingasman]

WHY!? Why has the Idea for this game drifted off into deep space? WHY!? WHY!? WHY!? *repeats 9001 more times*

[CronoZeligAccsinys]

OVER 9000?!?!

[RolyatSille]

I seem to be out of it... What is this a video of? It looks interesting but what is it?

[HappyAfroamerican]

RPG based on Touhou Project, which turned out to be April Fool's joke.

[yoshiothehedgehog]

Fucking shit, I'd pay people to make it, then I'd pay to buy it.

[laughingfurry]

Okay, you just lost me. How does she look like that? Or is it because of the shape of the question mark at 0:49.

[Lee00x]

0:43 ReimuYoumu omfg lol

[CheeriosChina]

It kinda does...

[DragonFoce140]

Try Valkyrie Profile

[pachenco3]

Fack....Awesome :F...........

[jmntrunks]

this is just plain old mean

[DBLHNDR]

looked like Fate's Thunder Smasher or whatever..

[sesshylurve]

FFFFFFFFFF...

[Visceral18]

lolazer

[hutuunohito02]

一年が過ぎてしまった・・・

[TheKrimsonKore]

this looks liek valkyrie profile lenneth

[otakudang26]

lol @ 0:51 Sakuya beating up on China again, damn she really must have something against her badly.

[magus7]

I hate you, Japan.

[234Spotman]

@magus7 yet we love them too... so conderdicting!!!!

[xdemonessx]

this is the kind of game i would be willing to pay $50 for

[4evadiamondz]

Holy cow... Did Alice just use her Grimoire?!

[Demophilus]

Yes, that is what she did.

[tenshinohane]

its Nibelung Valesti from VP

lol

[MitchellTF]

I believe this joke should become real.

[laughingfurry]

A Touhou RPG does sound like fun, but not like this. I would say it can work as an action RPG to maintain the danmaku apsects.

Not that hard to make, considering I've done something like that once before. But it sure as hell time consuming. I wouldn't do a Touhou one simply because I wouldn't want to put so much effort into something that would be non canon.

[MitchellTF]

That's why you find Zun, and see if he would be willing to support a CANON RPG.

And get a translator to handle the language barrier.

[laughingfurry]

I would try if I was still interested in doing RPG type games. Besides, I have other projects I need to finish, so I am unable to dedicate my time till I get something done. Though, I can give pointers to anyone who attempts the project.

[Cruxios]

;~; I second this...

[BenXD]

i quite like the BGM

[alchfilosofer]

we must develop the tasforo team for great justice!

[metalgearsolidfan112]

Damn you Japan!!

[ZuGaiKoTsu]

lmao~ I just had my hopes up. I was getting ready to go find and download till I saw the title~.

[saiyoucho]

Whoa that looks really sweet.

I'd wanna play it on PSP. =P

That way I could bring it with me everywhere.

[saiyoucho]

You misread my comment. I said that it looks nice. And that I'd want to be able to play it on a PSP.

I never said it was a real game and neither am I trolling. I'm just wishing that it was real and available to a portable console. =)

[JJDulin]

Hunt down the jack arses who made this and MAKE THEM FINISH ITTTTTTTT

[demondevil666]

well the vid might just be a half finnished game with serious glitches that some people gave up on but then again, it also might be completely animated and fake

XD

[IchigoArlekin]

Touhou needs a doujin RPG like this... damn april fools...
