ZUN : It's interesting when old occult stuff gets solved. You become able to understand what's going on in the old pictures and stuff.

"When is your next work coming out?"
ZUN : Don't ask that sort of question. Besides, I just released a game. But I am indeed always looking for new stuff. Recently I've been reading up obscure occult and urban legend stuff. Not as much new urban legends as I thought there'd be.

ZUN : When I was in elementary, a bear came into the schoolgrounds. When someone pointed it out, everyone rushed to take a look. It was pretty rare back then. Nowadays, when a bear comes out, it ends up on the news, so it's not as rare as it used to be.

ZUN : I really like liquid nitorgen. They gave us liquid nitrogen and told us to do whatever we wanted with it. I caught a frog and put it the nitrogen. They say that if you do that and put it in water, it would revive. When I pulled it out though, it was dead, Rest In Peace.

ZUN : When I was in middle school, I was part of the Chemistry Club. We made Nitroglycerin. We made some and blew it up, but it seems to have caused some sort of problem with the school, cause the next lesson we were asked to make soap.

ZUN : When I went to see The Boy and The Heron with the missus, I said it was good, and she gave me a weird look. She agreed with me when I said The Wind Rises was good, though.

ZUN : I don't watch a lot of movies, but I did go to see Kokuhou, and I was surprised. It was really good. It was a 3 hour long movie but it went by in a flash.

"There is not 1 singular truth".
ZUN : Infinite truths prevails. Someone like Conan would definitely fall into conspiracy theories when they grow up. I'd like to tell Conan that Truth doesn't exist in this world.

ZUN : When I went to the Niigata Reitaisai, I also went to the science museum. After going to Marasy's concert, I went to a science museum in Osaka. No matter where I go, if I'm with my kids, I'll go to a science museum.

ZUN : Samsara arc. I wonder how that'll turn out~~. I did write "Samsara arc, because it's part three". TL Note : the "サン"/"sam" part of "samsara" is spelled the same way as Japanese for "three". The manga is called Samsara arc because of a pun/joke.

ZUN : I'd like to go skiing in Switzerland once in my life. Not for an event or anything, that'd be a pain. The reason is because my father often bragged about how he went skiing in Switzerland, so I'd like to also try it out.

Buta : Plenty of games and anime end up getting their own fan-events when they become popular, but it's really unusual for the original creator to name the event.
Houjou : And for the creator to make an appearance.
Buta : That too. Reitaisai is just weird all around (3/3)

ZUN: Yeah, that. It sounded unrelated to Touhou, so I said they could do the event, but let me come up with the name, which ended up being Hakurei Jinja Reitaisai (Hakurei Shrine's Annual Grand Festival)
Buta : As a result of you naming it, people think it's an official event

ZUN (About the first Reitaisai) : At the time I didn't know much about doujin stuff. They asked me if it was ok to hold a doujin event and I didn't know what to say. The initial name they gave was also really weird.
Buta : Mugensouseki (Phantasmagoria Creative Record). (1/3)

ZUN: I don't trust health checkups. Even when I don't feel good, my numbers are always good. It's because they only check if you're overweight, since diabetes and other lifestyle problems are caused by overeating. If you're too thin, they say it's OK.

ZUN : I can only concentrate in the morning. After lunch, I get sleepy. At night, I don't concentrate, I go into a trance. Drawing and music, I do at night. Manga and manuscripts, I do in the afternoon. Don't want the writing to become jumbled.

Houjou : It seems you've been pretty busy recently, what have you been working on?
ZUN : Recently? I haven't been all that busy. I've just been shambling along, making a game…

On the 29th of October 2025, ZUN held his monthly drunk stream. As usual x.com/tara_touhou collected some interesting quotes from the stream. I'll be translating some of them. A thread 🧵.

Wow, no wonder he was quick to say yes when I asked him if he was interested in helping out with the interview.
