Mikoto with Minamo and Suzuri!

Now that the Kai Sister designs have been found I'll try to draw them all at some point.

It's really funny how despite being a complete shut in nerd Rinnosuke is a very common choice as a commentator for the touhou community.

No matter the competition, no matter the topic, Rinnosuke is either a commentator or a judge without fail.

It does make a little sense since Curiosities of Lotus Asia is pretty much Rinnosuke's unfiltered thoughts and commentary on every little thing and encounter.

As a result of this fanon trope, Rinnosuke does end up getting paired up with Aya, who obviously is the role of either the reporter and/or announcer in these scenarios. In basically any other context these two would rarely ever be seen together, and yet, their personalities are the perfect dynamic for commentating a competitive event.

Rinnosuke is reserved, inquisituve, and analytical. He won't get hype often, but he'll do it if goaded or if the situation calls for it.

Meanwhile, Aya is boisterous, melodramatic, and reactionary. She will use any excuse to instigate drama between competitors.

They're literally perfect as commentators, yet, they practically live in two different worlds. One rarely strays far away from their shop and the other is zooming around all over Gensokyo, but the moment you hear about a tournament you know exactly where these two are going to be.

this is actually quite true lmfao

Honestly though, what are Touhou fanartists/fanfic writers/doujin circles/cover bands/etc. going to do now that Flandre Scarlet's shown not to be some isolated child not quite in touch with reality who doesn't quite understand her own power and is actually just like a melodramatic battle junkie who tries to solve everything with violence?

I'm not saying she can't keep the creepy aesthetic or that she might not like it, but she's pretty obviously not like out-of-touch 'onee-chan!' 'why does everything break i just want to play' violent child.

I don't know how many Marine Benefit fans have seen the Kai Sisters, Megumi's many sisters from the sequel story created by MB's composer but PLEASE LOOK AT THEM I LOVE THEMMMM

*This artwork was created by Pixiv artist D-BYTE but unfortunately they have deactivated their account on just about everything. Kuroha aka CrystalWingS, the musical composer of Marine Benefit, has accepted these designs as canon (or at least as canon as Touhou fan characters can be???) so that's why I feel comfortable sharing them here. These artworks and designs I thought were lost for quite a while but I managed to find them here. Their bios (translated by StellarCanopy) can be found here and here.

Most Mariali stuff pains me bc it hinges on Marisa's agency in the relationship 90% of the time. Alice is barely her own character in both fanon and canon, so her characterization is at the mercy of what makes Marisa relevant.

Early touhou fandom esp blew this out of proportion, not allowing the poor white woman to exist seperate from Marisa 😭 This is why i'll never be able to fully enjoy Mariali outside of my own way of seeing them that goes against the common depiction of them at the time

drawing poll: clearance sale edition 1/5

[sukimas]

i may be acting uncharitably to touhou fans a little bit but that's because when i was just getting into touhou i was vehemently against yukari and merry being the same person because i was only familiar with the fanon characterization of the latter and hadn't read most of the print works containing the former. that's generally why i treat it like a "can you fucking read?" test- because one of my most strongly held opinions flipped in valence entirely when i actually read the works in question. just saying.

[occasionaltouhou]

i can only ever recommend my own fanfics because they're the only ones i read. part of it is that i just don't trust most of the stuff out there but even the stuff by people i know i generally struggle with. idk why honestly it's just like. if things aren't phrased a certain way in fanfic it doesn't click for me. the agonies

on the plus side however all my stuff is really good so it's actually totally fine

[anueutsuho]

Also completely switching gears here it seems like, if only to emphasize Hisami's height, people in at least the JP fandom are generally making Zanmu another short flat girl. Like, approximately Suika's size-shape.

I do not entirely like this.
