1. How long have you been playing Taiko?
I have been playing taiko for about 8 years, give or take. More realistically about 6 years active.
2. Why did you start playing?
I began playing osu! on Valentines Day in 2010, I met a girl on this chatango room for a website where you can watch anime called Anilinkz. I only played it a handful of times after that till like May 2010. Used to play Bad Apple and Higurashi OP back when they were popping. Anyway I was getting interested in Touhou so I joined the #touhou channel we used to have and met a user named SanderCohen (now known as Sander-Don), we became really close friends and he introduced me to taiko and taught me how to play and map and stuff.
3. What is your playstyle?
I use kddk with 1 key-space. Single-tap style.
4. Who is your favorite player?
Hori_159, Noobita, Ishida, Flanks
5. Which taiko map do you like the most?
I’m quite fond of ENNNN - Nightfall mapped by Ryui & Ringo, as well as Ponko2Girlish by Katacheh
6. Who is your favorite mapper(s)?
My favorite mappers are yea, Ulqui, -Kazu-, R i n g o, cdh, Nyan, Firce, I really love a lot of mappers so don’t consider this a really solid list or anything.
7. What mods do you use, if any?
I use HR and DT, HD is really not my cup of tea. Other mods don’t exist.
8. Do you like to play solo or multiplayer?
I guess I like to play with others, considering my history with tournaments. I like to encourage others to participate in community engagement.
9. What’s your hope(s) for the Taiko Community?
I hope they begin to accept and warm up to different styles of mapping more often, I want people to feel accepted in this community despite their skill level.
I want there to be more tournaments that challenge the players, innovate and do things well/better than I ever could.
I want there to be a more accessible way for people with no direct contact to BN or QAT to be able to get the help they need.
I want people to map different genres and different language music than just Japanese. Hip Hop, Spanish, etc.
I want to help the community take Loved as a legitimate approach to alternative ways of getting your map some attention or just getting recognition. I can’t force people to think it’s prestigious but I can encourage them to take it seriously and enjoy it as best as you can.
I want the Taiko community to love each other.
10. Do you like playing Taiko?
Sometimes. Other times I wonder if it’s a good use of my time, but I love you all and want to make you guys feel like it’s all worth your time as well.
