Wait what?

... Well, I guess if you count my own vote for Remilia, we have 5 for both the Watatsukis and Remilia.

Tiebreaker?

I sah we discuss Koakuma next, as I fear for the reaction Faw's heart might have if we do two popular characters so close together.
The mansion counts as an unpopular character, being a location and all.

Very well. Let us settle this like gentlemen. We shall meet on the field of honour at dawn at fight to death! I shall break this tie there, along with your pathetic mortal body!

Between the two, I choose Remilia.

I vote for Remilia, then, as I have nothing to say about the Watasukis as of now.

Can someone tell me which manga(s) they appear in? Because I have no frickin' idea.

I sure said that!

The Watatsuki sisters appear in all parts of Bougetsushou, that is, Silent Sinner in Blue, Cage in Lunatic Runagate, and Inaba of the Moon and Inaba of the Earth

They're all more or less concurrent. Silent Sinner is the main story, Cage does character studies, Inaba is not-really-canonical comedy

and I hadn't made a previous vote, so tiebreaker complete.

I'm sticking with Remilia. I know next to nothing about the Watatsukis other then that they're basically Moon!Reimu and Moon!Yukari. I don't even know which way round their names go...

Looks like Remi's up then. I just hope we never stray into Flan being more charismatic than her older sis because that's one of my biggest pet peeves in extant fanworks.

Remilia? Works I guess. I thought we were not going to go through characters by grouping though. Moon sisters? Eh. I personally wanted to talk about Akyuu.

If you ask me. Going by grouping allows one to complete certain thoughts without having it interuppted by other discussions.

Doing nothing is a choice.

Oh, I'm going by the tiers. My voting plan goes Remilia (tengu tier) -> Kaguya (kappa tier) -> Ichirin and Unzan (fairy tier)

So! Having nothing to contribute to the currently deceased topic, I have but two things to say; If anyone wants to post something "off-topic," well, there really isn't a topic right now. I doubt anyone would object.

And I only just realized a bit of unintentional humor in the tiers; neither Yuugi nor Suika are in Oni God tier, Cirno and Daiyousei aren't in the Fairy tier, and Nitori's not in Kappa tier.

I sure said that!

It's based on popularity, otherwise Cirno would be 3 tiers down.

Aya and Momiji are in the Tengu tier, so they're alright*

.

I just can't take Momiji seriously, since everytime I hear her name I get Kanako's STUPID song stuck in my head.

The Scarlet Devil
Remilia Scarlet

Appearance:

Theme:
Septette for the Dead Princess*

, (IaMP version), (SWR version)

Stage:
Rain of Blood over Elysium
bgm: The Young Descendant of Tepes*

Spellcard Motif: Scarlet | Vampires and devils | Blood | Fate
Notable spellcards: EoSD, IaMP, StB, SWR, Hisoutensoku
"Red Magic", Hell Sign "Mountain of a Thousand Needles", Heaven's Punishment "Star of David", "Scarlet Gensokyo", Scarlet Sign "Red the Nightless Castle", Critical "Heart Break", Divine Spear "Spear the Gungnir", Midnight King "Dracula Cradle", Midnight Sign "Bad Lady Scramble", Second Card "My Heartbreak", God Devil "Remilia Stoker", "Scarlet Destiny", Destiny "Miserable Fate", "Millennium Vampire", Demon "Remilia Stretch"

Write-up:
Darkness. The blood-red moon staring down from the empty skies above. The delicate beauty of a young girl, corrupted with the soul of a devil. A vampire.

Vampires look back at a long tradition of romanticized portrayals, describing them as people of wealth and taste, with the charisma to induce petrifying fear in any man, and to seduce any woman into following him wherever he goes. Combining this vampirism with the tried and true horror image of the little killer girl, Remilia should be the most terrifying blight upon the lands of Gensokyo, but she appears to be more interested in the "wealth and taste and charisma" portion than anything else.

A blood-red mansion with a massive clocktower looming over it before the full moon, bats, perhaps some werewolves, and the galas, oh, the galas! All the trappings of a true, elegant noblewoman's domain, as one would expect of the greatest vampiress of our time! Now, there might be some who say that it's not just Remilia's body that is child-like, and that she is about as elegant as a little girl playing dress-up in an oversized doll house, but certainly those are rumors that only a doodyhead would believe.

Whatever one might think of Remilia's wealth and taste, it's certain that she is not the most murderous "devil" the world has seen, being such a light eater that she seems unable to even turn a single human. To doubt her power, however, or her ability and willingness to use shady means to accomplish her goals, would be foolish. Her most prominent servant is one of the most exceptionally powerful beings known, after all. To be the master of someone like that... At the very least, she must be pretty charismatic.

Relations:

  • Flandre (little sister)
  • Sakuya (loyal maid)
  • Patchouli (old friend)
  • Meiling (old buddies?)

I think the biggest enigma about Remi is what her true mindset really is. Is she still the same spoiled little brat she was when she was turned? Is she really the wisest member of the SDM behind Obfuscating Stupidity? Are they all acts? Does she change her personality based on the weather?

But. But. Akyuu! She does the history stuff! (As does Keine I guess)

Remilia is a pretty interesting character, at least in my opinion. She wants to be a Dracula-type villain: stylish and noble, yet also cruel and menacing. Yet, despite her efforts, she only gets the "stylish and noble", and doesn't really get the "evil" down. She is too light a eater to turn anyone and the worst she's done is...spread a red mist around so that she can go outside? Work with Sakuya solve the incident in Imperishable Night? Want to go to space? I think eventually she stops trying with the whole "villain" angle and decides she should play up the "noble" part.

I do, however, like to think she is a very good schemer, even if her schemes aren't exactly super villain material, which I attribute to her lack of ambition. She is already the mighty head of House Scarlet, and already has her chosen servants under her control. She seems content with that. (Yes, I just said that a spoiled brat type character has a lack of ambition and is actually content with her position. What of it?)
