Well that'll teach me to speak from memory instead of always checking wikipedia for every little thing.

Also I find it interesting that this little excursion to cannibalism-land is the only thing we talked about in this thread all day.

Well, if there were any thread to talk about anthropophagy, I suppose it'd be the Touhou thread.

Hermits are delicious, and Yamame thinks depressed people are spicy (unclear if this is an Earth spider thing or applies generally).

Huh. I guess that means they eat them alive, since once depressed people are dead they tend to be a lot less depressed. Not surprising, but good to know.

I write some fanfiction. Satori's Tale is done... but I'm not.

Speaking of hermits, regarding the translation issue of 'sennin', would 'ascetic' be a closer translation? Although even if it is, I think it's quite late to change it, huh?

The joke is that jelly is slang for jealous.

^ That gives a different meaning to Dei Shirou's English pen name Orange Jelly.

I bet Orange is pretty jealous that her Chinese look-alike has become so much more popular than her tongue.

Oh, one Random Thought I had: Kanako's awesome "WORSHIP US" speech in early WAAAAAGHHH is so far not represented anywhere on the Trope or Character Pagesmile Would be nice there, I think. But I'm not super well versed in Troping and have never added a Trope before...would anyone like to? Is Large Ham the trope here? Hmm, it's for characters who are always like this... maybe add a line like "she's normally calm and collected, but the one time we see her in front of an audience...". What do you think?

(P.S.: Early WAAAGHHHH looks really crazy weird, but is funny as hell.)

Kanako does the sales. She has an advertiser's flair and sparkle.

I would assume that Kanako is at least as knowledgeable as Sanae. She is a god of technology after all.

Unless you subscribe to the theory that Orange is Meiling, that is tongue

They have also been using the Chinese artist ideolo's artwork seemingly without permission. This is strange, considering their sponsors include some Chinese fans, who should be able to contact ideolo by six-degree theory alone - I can do that too.
The answer is another google away: they do have the permissions to use the Chinese artists' works.

I think the recent ZUN updates are pretty interesting.

Has the tale of Momotaro come up in Touhou before?

everyone's least favorite person

I see what you mean, but that's only in canon.

Trust me, I don't know how Aya is my 7 when she is the single worst character to face in Po FV and Mo F, and then she has the cheek to act like she's completely useless in both St B and DS.

The cast would have lynched her by now without spell card rules. Though I want to do a pacifist run of her shot type in SA.

I thought the obvious joke to make would be to rush to Momiji's defense instead of taking it at face value.

Ah, yes. Bocaj's heart, it harbours such hatred. For the Lunarians, for Aya, for Miko...
