Shoot the Bullet
ZUN decided that in order to introduce the idea naturally, he needed a character who actually had a reason to shoot photographs. Thus he created the reporter girl Aya Shameimaru and planned to introduce her in the upcoming game "Phantasmagoria of Flower View" so that she can become the main character of a future photography game without being too abrupt. During this process, the manga publisher Ichijinsha was planning a manga anthology of Touhou Project dōjinshi, but ZUN decided that he can use this opportunity to introduce Aya, and negotiated with Ichijinsha to turn the anthology into a fanbook that contains samplings of Aya's newspaper. The result was "Touhou Bunkachou ~ Bohemian Archive in Japanese Red.", which was released three days before "Phantasmagoria of Flower View". ZUN had originally planned to include the photography game along with the fanbook, but ZUN did not have enough time to make that happen. Even so, ZUN continued to use the name "Touhou Bunkachou" for his photography game without Ichijinsha's authorization (although Ichijinsha later agreed to let ZUN use the name). Development took a month and a half to finish, and the game "Touhou Bunkachou ~ Shoot the Bullet." was finally released on December 30, 2005.
