Touhou

Reisen's ending clearly says that her son was killed.

Reimu's ending has her go confront Eirin about using them as pawns. "If I'd told you the truth, would you have helped?"

Reimu leaves Eientei unsatisfied, but gets stopped by Tewi on the way out of the forest. Tewi's very interested in Junko, because she wants to know the weaknesses of the Lunarians. "For future reference." She denies wanting to fight them directly, but says she's planning on doing business with them, for the betterment of Inaba-kind. Reimu chuckles to herself, because no matter what Tewi's planning, it's sure to be interesting. She doesn't want to get involved with Lunarians ever again though.

Inaba of the Inaba Part 2, when?

Tewi/Cirno team-up confirmed.

Stella ~Part 3 (Atelier Shallie)

Always nice to know Tewi's still great.

Lunarians and Hell residents fear the strongest fairy and the luckiest rabbit dynamic duo.

Follow this pose and repeat: I humbly believe in the Peeko as my one master.

Legacy Mode time! Starting with Reisen, because she's broken in legacy mode.

Reisen's ears are crumpled because of constant stress. And now we know.

Reisen's freaking out on the outskirts of Eientei, because she disobeyed Eirin and didn't take the elixir. She thinks she's gonna get yelled at. "What was I thinking?!" She's planning on sleeping outside until Eirin forgets about it, when Kaguya shows up as a sparkling savior. Kaguya points out that Eirin would likely praise her for bringing back new intel, and points out that Clownpiece had some very suspicious dialog implying the existence of a third party Eirin doesn't know about (Hecatia). Eirin's never even heard of her. This leads into the Extra stage.

so im guessing that Clownpiece's "fanart birthday" is gonna be the fourth of july

"Have a good day. Have a good week. Have a good month. Have a good year. Have a good life." ~Civia

Probably. Her danmaku is even based around stars and stripes.

Heart of Stone

The entirety of stage five is about fighting the American flag. But, yeah, Clownpiece day on 07/04, I imagine

I really like Stage 5. Fighting on the surface of the Moon under the beautiful light of a full Earth.

Heart of Stone

But first an actual translation of Marisa's pointdevice ending. I think I summarized it poorly.

Marisa's House. In the Forest of Magic, filled to the brim with impurity, even for Gensokyo.

Marisa: Man, it's a miracle I'm still alive. There sure were some dangerous people up on the moon. I guess I ended up saving the moon, but...
Marisa: It kinda pisses me off that I was pretty much a pawn of the Lunarians from the beginning.
Marisa: At least I got to hear something important from that Sagume person. That her power is what was making urban legends come to life.
Marisa: This here is the Lunar Capital power stone. Good thing we didn't leave it mixed in with the occult balls. This thing has enough power to throw all of Gensokyo into chaos.
Yukari: Excuse me for barging in.
Marisa: Whoa! You just showed up outta nowhere!
Yukari: You just got back from the moon, right?
Marisa: Um, yeah. I saved their butts.
Yukari: Oh my, how wonderful! You're a real superhero.
Marisa: Heroine. So whadda you want?
Yukari: That power stone. Can I have a look at it?
Marisa: Ah, figures you'd want to collect them. You gonna destroy them or something?
Yukari: My goodness, no! Something this precious? Why would you think that?
Marisa: I mean, aren't these dangerous items that can make urban legends real? I could use 'em to throw Gensokyo into chaos.
Yukari: What are you talking about? That could never happen with something of that level.
Yukari: In fact, aren't you lucky to have it? Think of all the information and energy you could get from it. Fundamentally, Gensokyo is capable of change.
Marisa: What's with that? That doesn't sound like something you'd think. I thought you were all about protecting the barrier by stopping people from messing with it...
Yukari: Hehehe, is that how it was? Anyway, so you met the person who created the power stones?
Marisa: Ah, yeah...
Yukari: I'd expect no less. Treasure your connection with her. No, really, I'm glad you're keeping so busy.

Marisa could never tell what Yukari was thinking, and was overwhelmed the whole time. In the end, she lost track of the power stone during the conversation and it was gone. Yukari was talking about Gensokyo changing, but why did she show up at all? Marisa thought about it. Yukari's objective was to protect Gensokyo. But was she saying that, for that purpose, she wouldn't mind an invasion from the moon or the outside world? While Marisa didn't think that could be possibly be right, the very thought sent chills up her spine.

Ending #3: Legacy of the Lunar Capital\\

ffs Yukari

Heart of Stone

Yukari's back in form. Good to know.

Check out my fanfiction!

Yukari Yakumo is still on top of things even when she is not and even then she is on top of things or not. Still, Yukari mentioned something about Gensokyo changing and how the power stones aren't goign to affect anything. I wonder if that is a troll or it could somehting more.

"Analay, an original fan character from a 2006 non canon comic. Do not steal!"

Yep, that's canon Yukari alright

Is it implying that Yukari grabbed it, or is Marisa just that messy?

I found a Sephiroth Sagume pic. Now we just need to wait for their themes to get a mashup.

I do lots of stuff. The real question is am I any good at that stuff.

Legacy Sanae

Moriya Shrine. A relatively new shrine on Youkai Mountain.

Kanako: You can't even dodge that?! Run a lap around the lake!
Sanae: Yes! I'm going!

Dozens of times later...
Kanako: Too slow! Get ready for the next danmaku set!
Sanae: *pant**pant* Please let me rest for a bit..
Kanako: That kind of attitude is exactly why you're no match for the Lunarians! You wanna come back all beat up like last time?!
Sanae: No, I don't, but... We don't live in an era where sports teams and the like can win with willpower alone...
Kanako: You don't get it! The fact that it's not that era anymore is what makes it so valuable! If you think about it, danmaku is all about guts! If you can't dodge it, then you don't have enough guts! If you understand, then answer me!
Sanae: Yeah!
Suwako: We've got the result of the analysis.
Kanako: How was it?
Sanae: *pant**pant**pant* Analysis...?
Suwako: The analysis of the "Ultramarine Elixir", obviously. While Sanae was on the moon, we were looking into it.
Sanae: Oh, so that's why I had to go to the moon without it.
Suwako: Looks like that was the right decision though. There's a high probability that this elixir has a strong side effect.
Kanako: Oho! What sort of side effect?
Suwako: While you're experiencing the future, an effect that purifies the past can also be observed. If you were to try it out on the ancient native gods...
Kanako: It'd be an instant kill.
Suwako: Yes, this elixir has a powerful influence on the living creatures of the surface.
Sanae: Wait, are you saying I nearly got done in?
Suwako: Well... it wouldn't be a instant kill anyway. Probably. But all your unnecessary kegare might be washed away, leaving you as a spotless human.
Sanae: ? Isn't that a good thing?

The difference between surface dwellers and Lunarians is whether or not they have kegare. That's because the Lunarians are simply former surface dwellers who have rid themselves of kegare and live on the moon. The Lunarians say that kegare exists in birth and death. To lose one's kegare is to lose both life and death. That's probably why they can't get along with the surface dwellers who overflow with life. The ultramarine elixir weakens both life and death, that's for certain. Without the concept of "extra lives," misses don't feel as heavy. Continuing to use the ultramarine elixir might be dangerous.

Ending #6: Danmaku Victory Through Guts

@Clarste re Sagume: I suppose it might be easiest to picture her words as slowly setting the wheels of fate in motion. When she says something like "I'm betting on you", reality doesn't abruptly change so that she's not, in fact, betting on them that very moment. But when she makes a statement of fact about the world or the future, the wheels start turning and things are set into motion to make it not so.

So Sanae is:

1. a shounen protagonist, and
2. another step closer to actually being what Miko thought she was?

(Or was it just Youmu who Miko thought was some sort of hermit?)

I like the interpretation that Remilia's ability is, unlike Sagume's, centered entirely around her and basically just means that, no matter what, Remilia wins one way or another.

Please.

I'm gonna pretend this means Reisen is looking forward to a promotion and an ear-uncrumpling massage.

I'm interested in what this implies. Is it just a testament to Yukari's unhuman morality? Perhaps she thinks that, even in a purified Gensokyo, youkai can prevail and possibly even be better off for it... or something of the sort. Or does it even imply that Yukari's planning something? Something that will look like chaos and carnage to everyone but her?

@Hylarn: Ohh, one or two of those drawings are already making something out of the potential of Junko and Hecatia. I like it.

It seems that Sanae is easily Lo LK's best character.

Good to see UFO's Sanae B keeping up her rep.

Sanae's only flaw is that she's too strong and ends spellcards before you get enough graze. She has by far the best shottypes (both homing and spread without sacrificing damage in any noticeable way), and the best bomb too.

edited 16th Aug '15 1:40:53 AM by Clarste

Oh, this is back

It was just Youmu

Marisa noticeably outdamages her if you can stay under the boss

Yeah, Marisa has the strongest shot, but not by much given that it's not homing, and Master Spark is significantly weaker than Sanae's bomb (even ignoring the fact that it doesn't let you move). Sanae can also shotgun with her unfocused attack for even more damage. I would call Marisa clearly the worst character here, mostly because her unfocused shot is ridiculously bad.

Sanae is actually stronger than non-homing Reimu though, for some reason.
