The history of putta can be traced back to the 19th century, back when Touhou games ran on an old-school home computer called the Analytical Engine, which had 8 bits of memory, a 2x2 pixel screen, and no audio whatsoever. As such, Touhou games of the time were only able to display 65536 bullets on the screen at a time, and had to be manually cranked after every boss fight. The putta was played by a live orchestra following the players everywhere they went for the rest of their lives, unless the musicians didn't fit through the doors, were unable to jump down the suicide cliff, in large part due to having sold their gravity to be able to purchase the same theatre tickets as the player, in small part due to the sheriff's graphic and detailed threats for driving an innocent man to suicide, but in no part due to fear, caused in large part by their innate childlike innocence concerning bodily damage, in small part by the fear of ZUN's graphic and detailed threats for failing in their pilgrimage, which they had hammered into their heads for the entirety of their education, but which didn't comprise the entirety of their education, just so you're not confused, but in no part by the asteroid impact on a remote planet of the Andromeda Galaxy, which didn't seem to affect their lives in any way, though they were mistaken, as it would be a major inspiration for the plot of the next Touhou game and particularly its soundtrack, which strangely consisted only of the sounds of asteroid impacts, or had to go to the bathroom.
