"The Imperium of Man comes to Gensokyo" Discussion thread.

Remarkably straight and to the, aha, point.

In the red corner: the anthropomorphic personification of a game console. In the blue corner: Kholek Suneater, Herald of the Tempest, the Mountain Lord, son of Krakanrok the Black, who is first of the Dragon-Ogre Shaggoths. The Internet is a beautiful thing.

RUN, Reisen.

Remilia is a Heavy now?

A fairy on edge.

Even when he's not in Team Dad mode he tells dad jokes.

Nitori's going to be pissed someone's stealing her job.

Insulting, stereotypical, and yet... not entirely inaccurate.

Today in "Crossovers you didn't know existed but now desperately need"...

This puts Emma into a disturbing new light.

Y'know, given what's going on with the pointy end, this was really waiting to happen.

Sing, Primsrivers, of the rage of Youmu, granddaughter of Youki, which brought countless woes upon the Gensokyans, and hurled many valiant souls of youkai down to the Yama.

I have to admit, that's pretty epic. Good find.

Sorry, the Feathered Serpent couldn't make it today.

Touhou puns? Really? REALLY?

Gyaruu waga teki WO KURAE!

Miss Mokou, while I appreciate you volunteering for my awareness campaign...

SCP Extermination Miko

Parsee must never know of this.

I think they're watching Cat Shit One.

Yes please

Suika used RAZOR WIND!

Far from me the idea of being That Guy, but... Purity seals? On a Khornate?

Somebody's going to have to explain the influx of images of Trump as Him on Earth. One country is quite enough, no need to ruin a perfectly good franchise as well.

Oh god what.

^ Clearly the time for Face Doodling is long past.

Evidently Yukari felt inadequate compared to Nameless Preceding Maiden of Hakurei Shrine.

Hakuran no mono

And thus RonTheDeathEater finally had a logical explanation.

You'd think someone would have noticed.

This needs to exist. Why does this not exist.

So I'm aware I'm not one to talk about mangled phonetic accents, but... this hurts to read.

*cough*

The bane of all fans. In my case it involves Mima's Twilight Spark.

Clever girl...

Reisen never learns, does she.

The Harry Potter crossover just writes itself.

Makes sense to me.

And while we wait for the yuletide avatar parade, let's see what Youtube's algorithms give us for Christmas and Touhou...

No, Okuu, we are not replacing the shiny baubles with a single really big glowing one.

Oh, I'm sorry! The Annual Touhou Christmas Avatar Advent Calendar has been going on since the 1st of December already, but since things were so quiet in here, I didn't think of putting the updates here. I didn't know people were interested.

All avatars uploaded so far can be viewed here, and I'll be sure to put the remaining half of the avatars in here from now on.

EDIT:

What's behind window nr. 14?

On this beautiful full moon morning, it's Reisen Udongein Inaba doing Christmas deliveries!

edited 13th Dec '16 11:00:52 PM by Lemurian

Speaking as 25% of the thread's known population, I'm always interested.

Speaking of other interesting events, it turns out a bookstore has a bunch of 40K books (in French unfortunately), one with the attention-grabbing title of AHRIMAN: IMMUABLE.

So I looked it up, and here's what the Black Library site has to say:

... "daddy".

edited 14th Dec '16 5:47:08 AM by Chabal2

I'm glad to hear it.

Next up is window nr. 15!

Continuing along the theme of the beautiful December full moon we've been having this year, it's the return of Hakutaku!Keine Kamishirasawa.◊

EDIT: And behind the 16th window...

It's the time of year for Christmas parties and similar in workplaces and organizations, so today the entertaining and spectral Prismriver sisters Lyrica, Lunasa and Merlin◊ get the spotlight! Party safely, everyone~

EDIT 2:

Opening window nr. 17.

On this peaceful Saturday morning, have an elegant Kaguya Houraisan drinking tea before a view to a winter wonderland.

Speaking of gazing upon snowy vistas:

Eight World Eaters did look out, on frozen Skalathrax,
There the snow was cold and deep, th'winds as sharp as Khorne's axe.
As they hoped for enemies, th'lack of which was cruel,
Then a warrior came in sight, flamer full of fuel.

"Come my brother let us kill, this watch is long and boring.
We will slay Slaneeshi whores, their helmets need emptying.
Th'throne of skulls shall rise most high, upon its cranial mountain.
I shall lead the charge I swear, or I will die trying."

"Khârn the snow is high and deep, our foes are too well hidden.
Let us wait 'til morning's light, their skulls will not be stolen.
Once this blasted cold lets up, I will gladly slay them.
Then by axe or flamer gun, Khorne's due will be given."

With a swing of Gorechild, Khârn did slay the traitor.
Picking up the flamer then, he saw his brethren cower.
Knowing then what must be done, he torched the shelter gladly,
Then went to another one, all while laughing joyfully.

The Blood God said to him then, "   You shall be my Chosen.
Go my champion kill them all, th'cowards and the craven.
By your rage they shall be purged, of their greatest failing.
You will bring me skulls and blood, a war that has no ending!   "

Khorne's will was done well that night, both Legions lay broken.
None were spared, no World Eater, not one Emperor's Children.
Taking battle to the stars, Khârn still does his duty,
Killing, maiming, burning foes, kill-count near infinity.

It's the eighteenth, and behind today's window, we find...

For the fourth Advent Sunday, it's Hina Kagiyama.◊ Thanks to her combination of green hair and red-and-white garb, she's a shoe-in for Christmas-themed artwork, and this year is no exception.

EDIT: Now, on to the nineteenth window.

Starting off this last week of the calendar, it's Hata no Kokoro and Mononobe no Futo!◊ The reindeer mask means holiday cheer.

EDIT 2: For the 20th of December, we've got...

A Christmas-themed Suwako Moriya,◊ complete with a decorated Pyonta and some festive Mishaguji. Because nothing says Christmas like white snake curse demons decorated with red ribbons.

EDIT 3: On to window nr. 21!

As we approach Christmas Eve, it is finally time for the Scarlet sisters! First up is [[ Remilia Scarlet!]]

EDIT 4: Opening window nr. 22!

Following suit after her older sister, it's Flandre Scarlet's time to shine!◊

EDIT 5: Not many windows left! Here goes nr. 23!

For Little Christmas Eve, it's the return of Alice, out doing her last present deliveries before Christmas.◊

EDIT 6: It's Christmas Eve!

Here in Norway, we open the presents on Christmas Eve, so here's this year's present to Reimu Hakurei: Marisa in a box!

edited 24th Dec '16 2:23:04 AM by Lemurian

It's twelve minutes past midnight here, so Merry Christmas everyone!

Merry Christmas!

This year's loot: comic books and a belt.

edited 24th Dec '16 11:48:08 PM by Chabal2

Merry Christmas, joyous Yuletide and happy holidays, everyone!

As usual, I've saved the best in the Advent Calendar for last! Like last year, I have prepared a little festive avatar diorama. So please, enjoy.

Sunflower shuriken. Your move, Eldar.

Happy New Year!

Happy new year!

Tests over, got me a paying job for half the year, and there's a new Berserk out. And it's the end of January, so finally an election whose results won't inspire screenpunching or misanthropy.

Lemurian! What news from the east?

Yours truly leaves for Australia in 8 days, to start his university life.

Otherwise, we may be getting two Touhou releases this year, Antimony of Common Flowers and another thing that's unnamed so far.

The latter is based on speculation though.

That is cool. To study what, and have you packed your bug spray, protective clothing, shark repellent, really big knife, antivenom, pointy hat with corks on strings, sunscreen, disinfectant, chrome spray, first-aid kit, forked stick and organ donor card?

Two months and joergen is nowhere to be seen. We must accept the inevitable (and indeed, the only logical) outcome: his brain has been eaten by a Greater Outback Spider, his cranium buzzing incessantly as the hateful creatures hatch and multiply inside his cortex.

In the meantime, here is more proof that Touhou needs more harp-centric remixes:

I am blue, da be dee da, da be dee da be da be da, da, da be dee da, da, da be dee da da be da dee da be da dee da!

So it turns out there could very well be a third Warp portal in the heart of the Southlands vomiting forth mighty giants clad in great armor, and we've never heard of it because the natives are just as strong.

You see Koishi, when stand in brasero like me, enemy shall never burn you because are already on fire! I show.

Fal-cold PAWNCH!

Yuuka-gunso's methods have yet to catch in non-Gensokyan regiments of the Imperial Guard Astra Militarum.

Fujiwara no Miko

Nice Hat: the ur example.

She's more of a Magic Knight.

This explains the Soviet press' relation with reality.

I'm assuming this is the sequel where they get revenge on the loyalist barbarians.

The Hakurei family tree rows ever more tangled...

... while their poverty is explained.

Project Stormfury sounds badass. Project Stormfury Begins should be read in the same tone as one would say "SKYNET becomes self-aware".

Necromundan thunder rat brave.

Pure genius.

Leonidas is not having any of this shit.

It's whatever the hell you want it to be, buddy.

Their love is pure.

Some messiahs build their churches upon rocks. And then there's Hijiri.

Behold Reimu's Up+B, the Spinning Mikong.

So the Imperium has psyker titans now. What will the orks call theirs once they get one?

Goddammit ZUN, it's bad enough that it exists in reality, stop spreading it to fiction. Unless he's talking about journalism standards in Gensokyo...

No, I still live. Rather busy though. Apropos of spiders however, this article's interesting.

Starring Alolan Cirno, apparently.

Said work featured infanticide by orbital bombardment, revenge, cross-pantheon sniping, the witch-queen, and patriotic clowns. Not sure how he could have topped it, to be honest.

So among the new characters are a butterfly youkai named Eternity Larva (poor girl), a guardian dog statue with the ability to detect heresy Shintoism and Buddhism, and a hag with a huge-ass knife who can consecrate land.

The stage is set for another battle of the faiths.

I count two lunatic princesses here.

Whatever the West produces in awesome-yet-stupid, the Internet shall always make awesomer and stupider.

Today on Learn English with Eastern: Anatomy.

Lunar rabbits are increasingly cited as examplars by the Imperial priests and medicae trained in the Gensokyan bastion-seminaries.

Shoutoku, Shoutoku, naal ok zin los vahriin! Wah dein, vokul, mahfaeraak ahst vaal!

What, exactly, did she think would happen?

Among the many relics of Gensokyo's invasion by the orks, some were better received than others.

Wriggle Nightboar

If this is what she has to look forward to, no wonder Chang'e never watches.

So wrong and yet, so right.

Neon Genesis Evangojira: Where angst burns in the fires of atomic breath.

I wanna burn the... wussitcalled, thing, big, shiny at night...

The boundary between eyes open and closed is a horrible place.

Dammit, Suika!

Awww... Isn't that nice? They're both happy. Smiling. Mouths going up.

What difference? It's well-known that she can't be killed...

Do mikos usually hear deathbed confessions?

Dunno wut it iz da mekboys saw, but dey 'asn't stopped drinkin' since.

Fujiwara no Mokou: Figure of the Person of Hourai, Human Immune to Death by Fire, The Crimson Watchguard, Blaze! Human Inferno, The Immortal Guide of the Bamboo Forest... and now, Goddess of Arson.

Yukari explains the Internet.

Yes please.

Yuyuko is Osaka

Because Australian wildlife wasn't dangerous enough.

Quite possibly the second-most reptilian Queen Elizabeth I that I have ever seen.

There seems to be a considerable shortage of normal dentists in Gensokyo.

The incarnation of machine spirits caused considerable theological stir among the Adeptus Mechanicus. (And with respect to the comments, pretty sure that's an Ultramarine).
