>>8932I'm gonna go off the board and say either "Imperishable Night" (TH08) or "Undefined Fantastic Object" (TH12).
I do admire "Embodiment of Scarlet Devil" (TH06), but it's a bit too cliché to answer with that and the game doesn't even have a hitbox when you focus, while "Imperishable Night" (TH08) is the most polished of the early Windows trilogy and has a wide cast of characters. If you absolutely suck at danmaku games, I believe that the community consensus is that "Undefined Fantastic Object" (TH12) is the easiest game.
Overall, ZUN tries to make each Touhou game standalone and avoid continuity (even though there is some if you dive deep enough) so it'd be easy for newcomers to simply jump in at any point.

No.19323
>>19322It's a game that came out at the right moment, kinda like TF2 in the west. Japan is pretty shitty with copyright law and Touhou came out and the author was like "do whatever you want with this IP", so it blew up in popularity among indie circles, and the rest is history.
No.19324

Freddy Mercury (dead), David Bowie (dead) or listen to One More Time by Daft Punk who recently disbanded, and the guy doing the voice for that particular song is dead, and the music clip was directed by Leiji Matsumoto of Captain I Am Fucking Dead fame. Hmmmmm you know what? Why not play the first two Pokemon games. Hey, did you know that the President of Nintendo himself helped out with finishing those? Yeah, I mean the former President (dead).
