The Site
Rainbowsphere started as a small, simple WordPress.com blog in 2007, though there were plans to move the blog to the domain of Animeblogger.net. The flow of application went smoothly until the crash the domain went through on November of the same year. The blog went on limbo, and was eventually brought down in the meantime with hopes of revival once Maestro gets things straight. Unfortunately, he didn’t.
More than five months passed, and the blog was resurrected on the same domain provider it was in on its first few years. The months pass by in tranquility as the site tried its best to move on without trying to depend on something as complicated as a domain service provider.
Now, Rainbowsphere is being hosted by dasaku.net, thanks to Randall Fitzgerald. The site tackles about Japanese visual culture in general, but will also feature news about games, especially Touhou Project. But all in all, it’s just one cozy, humble home for the author.
The Author
Shance was introduced into the Dasaku roster as the resident fan of Touhou Project and its protagonist, Hakurei Reimu. The blog started activity by posting news and stuff about Touhou. Eventually, having access to a more diversified selection of visual material, the author tried its hand on everything. Several posts later the site evolved, with the author getting different stimuli and opinion from various sources; a situation that is being experienced on a good basis.
