One Winged Egret
Well now I feel dumb

Honestly, Seiga would pull off the flapper look incredibly.

Personally, I was quite disappointed it wasn't flapper Seiga.
My heart breaks at your disappointment.

Nooooooo 
, don't break Pluto! We just met you!
In personal Touhou News: am excited 'cause tomorrow, gonna play HM for the first time! 
But even, way, better: gonna be at my best friend's, and he's gonna get the First Blind Touhou Experience with it 
Well, he's already seen some Touhou Stuff, thanks to my elaborate Touhou Introduction E-Mail, and he liked it So, hopefully gonna work out fine! ![[tup]](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Thumbs_up_emoticon_3268.png "[thumb up]"){kind=small}
What I'm looking forward to in HM is that it pretty much won't have most of what made the new Smash Bros unplayable for me (just played it for the first time!) HM is, I think, way slower, the sprites are bigger and not as far zoomed out, there's only two chars, so you don't lose sight of who you are, and the stages don't have bottomless pits. All of those things made Smash Bros hell for me, so here's hoping!

Pluto isn't even a planet.
I like you, so I'll pretend that you didn't say that.

It is however planet-like for most reasonable and foreseeable purposes you may have.
Touhou 15 Jacket is out! Let the speculation commence!

She looks like a dragon and considering the final boss of 14.5, I'm going out on a limb and suggesting that it's a Hearn.
Also speculation on my part, but it appears that one of the boss could be Reimu (considering the ofuda and the yin yang orbs) suggesting perhaps that each PC may face off against their counterparts.

Why yes it is!

Oooh, Stage what I assume is 4 looks pretty. Could it finally be the Lunar Capital?

Usami Sumireko's counterpart to Merryberry? Of course we all know the latter is actually Yakumo Yukari via shenanigans and convolutedness.
Well, we already know that Maribel had ancestors who also, at the very least, had the ability to see borders. I'd be surprised if one of them was a dragon (or any other horned being), though.
On a related note, Twillight Frontier is releasing the OST to U Li L.

Sumireko looks hella stylish.
Yubi yubi!
she looks small without her cape

The final boss of Touhou 15 is an incarnation of the Dragon God

Looks like a person riding a dragon to me, but I'm notoriously bad at interpreting the silhouettes.
The last spellcard screenshot is "One-winged White Heron", in case anyone was wondering.
Edit: Apparently a white heron is an egret? I don't know birdology.

Yeah, silhouette is dragon-y. I lean more to dragon-riding than dragon-girl, but who knows
New stuff shows what appears to be a midboss with dialogue that later becomes a stage boss. Or it's the stage boss and ZUN disabled the name display for the photos. Anyway, I note she fights with yin-yang orbs and doesn't appear to be Reimu

I also liked this strip starring Mokou and Sumireko, from the same artist.
Funny but not helpful
A Shiki Eiki the Yama of Xanadau
Wow, that was a lot of really good pics! 
Got a few new backgrounds from that.
Also: confirmation(?) that LOLKAT will be coming soon and not be delayed? 
I hope! The CD-Shadow- and Screenshot-Speculation, however, seems to be as fruitful as it has always been 
Also also: sadly only got to play about 20 minutes of HM yesterday, because of bad time management due to 4 hours of Magic beforehand ^^ So we only got to do a few Practice Matches against Easy AI, which barely worked ^^ We sucked pretty bad, because of the completely new Always-Flying-Gameplay messin' us up and our complete ignorance of how to do Special Attacks Maybe some other time...
One Winged Egret
Special attacks work the same way they do in Smash: direction + Special button (default is C on a keyboard). Some specials change based on where your character is (high or low on the screen), but it depends on the character.

From the same album, flapper Seija
It's amazing.
