bad news, everyone. in the next part, instead of making a joke i just drew an entire recap of a piece of elden ring lore played totally straight. but the good news is i think some of the reimus are cute

[chireikiden]

I like the way the manga presents Remilia as a looming threat. The little details like her betting rate being hidden by Reimu or the quick mention of Tenshi only being second in the last tournament.

I do like those too. I'm not sure what to think, though, since on one hand (generally speaking, not in every individual work) I tend to view her fate manipulation as a joke and feel it would be funny to see it somehow subverted here too, but on the other hand, I really look forward to seeing the mind games required to win against literal fate.

ARE YOU A SOLDIER, A POET, OR A KING?

THE KING.

"There will come a ruler / Whose brow is laid in thorn / Smeared with oil like David's boy" Duty. Strength. Resignation. You were told to do things and you did them. The world is something that was put into your hands and that you must deal with - so you will. You have a rigid back and steady hands, either metaphorically or physically. Is it nature or nurture ? You don't know. You are tired of being steady. You dream of feeling alive. Not that you aren't, but, sometimes, it's hard to remember that there is a heart between your ribs. Your love is where you breathe. Come on, breathe. In. Out. It starts now.

Thanks OP for the chart.

Decided to post my mess here as well. Meaning of the colors:

Red. The question is not who I ship Reimu with; it’s how many women does she deserve to kiss

Blue. Good stuff

Green. Lower priority ships or at least those I think can be cute enough

Pink. Reserved for Kasen and her exes, because I like to imagine she’s 2 evil exes away from getting her own series.

I updated the touhou relationship chart with new characters + made it look less messy! it's also here if tumblr lowers the quality. no pc98 as usual (it's already big enough), sorry. if you prefer tierlists I also made this a while ago

do what you want with it, have fun

Marisa Hosts a Dinner Party

"It's called cream of mushroom soup. Got the recipe from a book I borrowed from Patchy."

Sequel to that Reimu Tea Party art I drew last week. Two tag-alongs have joined as well.

Want more girls vibing? My comms are open! DM me if interested!

If comms aren't your thing but you still want to support me, you can also tip me on Ko-fi!

OK finally back with some more drawings! Since Touhou 17 is approaching it's 5 year anniversary soon, I wanted to draw at least one of the charatcers (hopefully I'll still be motivated to draw Keiki lol) and I had some ideas for Saki and I've never drawn her before, so that's how we got here!

Artist's Notes;

So after doing some drawings of my OCs (who I will reveal upon a later date since I still wanna finalize their designs) and finally getting out of my art funk that I've been in for a while, I started off this drawing with the mentality of "oh yeah I'm just gonna put together this quick outfit for Saki and I won't bother rendering it"

...and then I did but to be honest I am very happy I did because oh my god clothes are so fun to render for me now. I remembered the technique I used on my drawing of Reimu and applied that here. That technique being using triangles to imply shadows and highlights in clothing and then blending out those shadows to give the clothing some three dimensionality. My favourite things that I rendered in this piece were the gloves, hat and the belt buckle (since I applied a technique for rendering gold and metal objects that I remember seeing/hearing about a while ago). Don't get me wrong, I love how all the clothing turned out in this piece but the gloves are the real standout of this piece to me. I also had some fun with the cowboy boots (I couldn't figure out how to make those cool metal star things work on the boots though that is a sin I fully intend to fix later down the line) since when I looked at references for them I noticed how some of them had these intricate details embroidered (?) onto them.

Also, in the earliest phases of this drawing Saki had this really big black coat that I decided to get rid of later down the line because it really does not work with her fighting style and it did not stand out against her wings, and the logistics of her getting said jacket with her wings on confused me. Like, I can kind of imaging that on her shirt she has a little open spot for her wings that she can just put them in. That goes for Yachie to but now I'm even more confused because all her clothes must need some open backs because of her shell??? Which raises some more questions, like, can she just never be on her back when sleeping??? Looking at Yuuma we can see that the beast yakuza in Touhou can freely change their form from human to beast so can Yachie just double down on the human bit and get rid of her shell temporarily so she can sleep comfortably??? Because if she lays on her back is she just kinda wobbling around like most turtles are when they're on their backs? Can she hypothetically retreat into her shell, if so that has some weird implications to how her anatomy works. Like, what does her skeleton look like? Seriously, what are the logistics here WHERE DOES YACHIE GET HER FUCKING CLOTHES BECAUSE THEY PROBABLY NEED TO BE SPECIFICALLY TAILORED SO SHE CAN PUT IT ON TO FIT HER SHELL I DON'T NEED SLEEP I NEED ANSWERS YACHIE WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS-

....rant aside, you can see the remnants of this idea in the tattered back of her... idk what to call it but I know she has a variant of this in her OG design. I mainly wanted to test this out because of the cursed realization that The Ghoul in Fallout Prime is just a male Saki but if Utsuho gave Saki radiation poisoning. No seriously, they're smug ass cowboys who are so sure of their own strength that have fought at least one mechanically engineered robot in some variation of a wasteland with an affinity for dogs. I'm now morbidly curious as to what would happen if you put the two of them in a room together. Would they try to kill each other? Would they become besties? Would they try to kill each other and then become besties? Who knows. But yeah jokes aside the tattered cloth was a design choice that was inspired by The Ghoul from Fallout Prime because y'know, same vibes. And also because yes I do love Fallout Prime and I am so ready for season two IT'S SO GOOD GO WATCH IT EVEN IF YOU AREN'T FAMILIAR WITH FALLOUT AS A SEIRES GO DO IT NOW, SAIL THE SEVEN SEAS FOR IT IF YOU HAVE TO JUST WATCH IT-

I knew for Saki's face I wanted to give her some thick eyebrows, it just makes sense. I also wanted to give her some scarring on her face because she's a crime boss, why wouldn't she have scars? I also had some fun with her little horse ear that's sticking out from the side of her hat since it would kinda look weird if she just had no ears period. I also went ham on stylizing her ponytail into this weird swirl, since if I were to show you some of my recent doodles from my sketchbook you would notice that that has become a common motiffe in some of my art. I don't know why but I just like it. Saki's wings were also very fun, I found a good reference for bird wings that are specifically shaped for high speeds (though I did add some stylistic touches so her one wing that's out wouldn't look like a big blob) since her whole thing is speed. From very early on in the process I knew that I wanted Saki to not look skinny, so I found some refs of female kickboxers for her legs and noticed that while parts of their upper body are maybe a bit toned, it's the legs that have a lot of power. I mainly did this because kicking is a huge part of her fighting style.

Overall, I'm really happy with this drawing, and once Touhou 17's anniversary rolls around I do want to go more in depth on my thoughts in the game, it's themes, and how the animal realm functions as a dark parallel to Gensokyo in many ways. I'll also have to get around to drawing Yachie and Keiki as well (if I still have the time and motivation to do so) since I have some ideas for their designs that I'm very excited to draw (especially Keiki).

[aomine-in-gensokyo]

Hey guys, Daiki Aomine here

Woah, Yuki and Sanae are here? Guess it's fate 2 people I know are going up against each other. I can personally vouch for Yuki. He's a nice guy, hard working, and talented. For Sanae, I've seen her whenever I decide to take naps at the Moriya Shrine at the top of the Youkai Mountain. She too, is hard working, as well as very high spirited. Both of them give it their all in what they do, so you definitely should be here to support them.

===

ok full disclaimer, while my blog is technically 50% touhou, the bond i have with a3! and its fans is something truly special! so thats why im here to give some propaganda for both sides!!

yuki rurikawa:

[Image ID: A picture of Yuki Rurikawa sipping from a green drink through a red straw. He is holding said drink in the air with his right hand. He is resting his head on his the top of his left hand as he looks at the camera. Around him are various Halloween decorations. End ID]

he's an actor and costume specialist in the makai company! the mankai company is a theater company that does alot of plays! specifically, yuki is part of the summer troupe.

he's characterized as rather frank and bold, often making harsh criticisms. however, these comments are never done to insult, as yuki is a rather open-minded individual!

many of his traits can be attributed to the bullying he has faced in his past. see, he prefers wearing more feminine clothing, which has gotten him some mean-spirited comments about his appearance. thus, he would always have to defend himself...

however, he is rather talented at making clothes! this is why he's selected in making costumes for the other troupe members!! and then, he even becomes an actor himself!!

sanae kochiya:

[Image ID: The cover of the third volume of an official Touhou manga: Wild and Horned Hermit. This picture features Sanae Kochiya and Kasen Ibaraki. In the front of Sanae with a big smile, holding her arms out. Kasen is in the back, also smiling. End ID]

she is the wind priestess of the moriya shrine!! this is a shrine that appeared one day in gensokyo (main setting of touhou) who challenged reimu (the main character) and her shrine (hakurei shrine). oh and her ability is to make miracles happen! (like rain for ur crops)

so yes! sanae's introduction actually had her as one of the acting antagonists in her debut game (Touhou 10 - Mountain of Faith)! however, after he defeat by the hands of reimu (or marisa depending on who you choose) she becomes good! (well most antagonists in touhou arent usually evil in the first place, just a little too ambitious for their own good...)

one of her most interesting characteristics is that she's from the "outside world" as gensokyo is actually a sealed off from the normal world (the world u and i would live in). so she has knowledge about things like technology, science, pop culture, etc. that most characters would never have seen! however, this does mean that she's still been adjusting to the lifestyle in gensokyo as its very much different from the normal world she grew up in... still! she's confident and tries her best! energetic and high spirited, that would best describe her!

so ultimately... follow the voice in your heart and vote for whoever speaks to you if you cant decide between sanae and yuki! theyre both very good characters!

The Green Hair and Pronouns Tournament, Round 3 Match 7

[aretheyqueer]

Is she bi?

disclaimer: this is a hc, not speculating on what the writers intentions were.

reason: Literally look at how she talks to Meira in Story of Eastern Wonderland. Also I have her listed as bisexual because I am a man and I love her but honestly that's just straight up coping. There is no way in hell any humanoid man is plot relevant enough for her to notice. (I did not forget Rinnosuke. I'm submitting her next.)
