I lost you some pages ago. 
I'm not unfamiliar with Touhou but I don't actually recognize most of these names.
'Course I also haven't played most of the games more than halfway through cause I suck at Bullet Hell, so that's probably why

Speaking of Touhou and Bullet Hell, I can't fathom how it's possible to dodge this
◊.
On a Haruhi Suzumiya-related non-KBDH note: Just finished reading the D.L. Action 36 through 39 doujinshi. God, the artist is a master of drawing Nagato with uber-cute facial expressions! 
It's possible because that tiiiiiny white circle in the middle of the character sprite is your hitbox.

Well, yes, but how the f*** does one manage to navigate through that ridiculously dense hail of energy bullets of various shapes and sizes without accidentally hitting one every five seconds?!

The hitbox is actually smaller than that circle.
Lots of practice, Marq. It's apparently still better than Gengetsu Rape Time, though I have no idea how it's supposed to compare to any of the other infamously ridiculous cards. ![[lol]](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lol2v12_4863.png "[lol]"){kind=small}
It looks easier when it's not a still image. >.>

I'll take your word for it.

Things no longer allowed to be written into a fanfic: I will not put the words "AC-47" or "Puff the Magic Dragon" in the same sentence as Touhou.

<Just finished watching the video> ..... That's one hell of a feat in precision-in-character placing.

Insane mode scares me. People who play Insane mode scare me. I can't even beat a Touhou game with no continues on Easy. XD Skill in Touhou seems to be one part pattern memorization and two parts VERY twitchy reflexes. I'm okay with the former, not so much with the latter.

Try Subterranean Animism, it's mostly puzzles.
Furthest I've got on Normal, on anything, is... umm... Remilia. XD

Anyway, either back to K:BDH or suggesting who people can cosplay as. Pity that the only easily defined Cast Herd is the Myouren temple. Haruhi would probably be Nazrin...
Why do I need a title again?
But who would be Byakuren, in that case*?
I have returned, and my vacation in the void was so boring...
Figure of Hourai
Tsuruya. Given that various interpretations of Byakuren have her as somewhat... odd, it doesn't seem so much of a problem. >.>

I think Haruhi as Byakuren would fit better. And for Nazrin... Yuki, perhaps?
As much as I like Touhou, here's a more abstract question.
There are numerous female fans of Lupin III and The Series of Suzumiya Haruhi. The former makes sense because he's a suave gentleman-thief. The latter makes sense because there are two characters designed to be a lady-trap. And the ridiculous question I have is, what motivates female Ranma fans? It's a martial arts comedy, which isn't "girly stuff". Romantic plot is also not as developed as in some Brazilian soaps. So why?
How is this relevant at all? Durandall wrote outstanding Ranma fanfics, too.

Rather than smart, I'd prefer to be wise. It would let me be silly more often.

That's... The most obvious answer. If it's not rude to ask, what about you?
