I want to emphasize that FMW is a game with truly wonderful BGM, and it's worth purchasing for that alone. For those who have absolutely no plans to play this game at the moment, I'd like you to check out this video.
By the way, the total number of songs is over 220.

To English speakers, I highly recommend checking out the numerous excellent reviews posted on Steam. I don't think there's anything better than their words to understand what kind of game this is

Hearing those words makes me happy as if it were my own achievement.
I didn't know Touhou or Super Robot Wars before, yet it still had an impact powerful enough to change my life.
I wish more people could experience this work...

Thank you...!
I want this game to be appreciated by even more, even more people around the world.
It's a work I can wholeheartedly believe in with all my strength...

I'm truly thrilled that you, someone I've known for so long, are playing FMW!
Thank you!!!!

Thank you, thank you, Lofo-san!!
It was really interesting to hear how it actually looks to people in English-speaking countries!
What I'm trying to say is, yes, Kurumi-chan is absolutely adorable!!!

For example, I'm a big fan of FMW Kurumi! The team did a great job of localizing her mannerisms in a way that an EN audience can appreciate. (Also she seems somewhat weak, but that complements her character well which makes her even more charming! I want to cheer her on!)

I have been playing it and loving it (slowly, as I've unfortunately been quite busy), and I can confirm the localization is exceptional. It's unfortunately common when playing JP works in EN that jokes and mannerisms lose a lot of impact, but the FMW team did a great job of preserving most of them!

And finally, from just one ordinary gaming enthusiast who simply loves games from around the world, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to the staff who handled the wonderful localization.

Thank you for bringing Fantasy Maiden Wars to the world!

The six staff members who worked on localizing this title over several years—just how monumental an achievement did they accomplish?
Whenever you're ready. Even ten years from now.
I truly hope you'll play this game and see for yourself.

And it's not just 2.5 million characters.
This work contains obscure official Touhou Project terminology and religious terms, and even I find myself wondering how on earth you'd translate so many of these words into English.
Moreover, the character limit must have been difficult as well.

This also means that the localization of this title has been exceptionally well executed.
This is truly remarkable.
Because, first of all, the text volume for this title is 2.5 million characters, as discussed in this interview.
(This is fascinating! I recommend reading it!)

Another point is that most of those positive reviews come from (in my view) overseas players.
While this proves that releasing the Steam version allowed this wonderful game to reach players worldwide, it's not just that.

Lofo、thank you...!!
