VGCulture - Touhou Defense of the Shrine

Touhou is a danmaku/bullethell series created by one man in Japan that goes by the alias "ZUN".  Touhou has become an international phenomenon in Japanese gaming and animé culture and has since issued millions of fan based materials.  From remixes of ZUN amazing original sound tracks to cosplaying the various characters within the series, Touhou touches upon everything imaginable.  Just now, a friend told me about another Touhou related creation called "Defense of the Shrines" (DotS) which more or less plays like Defense of the Ancients (DotA).  Custom models and extensive mods make this custom map campaign of the Warcraft 3 have as much feel of a Touhou related game as possible.  Much like DotA, all the characters have special abilities and the potential to level up.  It still seems pretty early in development, so characters may not be entirely balanced and a lot of words may not be translated to English yet.  The custom models and map can be downloaded from the wiki page above.  Warcraft 3 Frozen Throne is required to play the game.
