So while browing Tumblr for more Touhou art, I came across these gifs of what I call "HD Zunart animation". While I want to say that the guy made these, I would totally watch a short anime on that style. Like ZUN's art suddenly becomes really good given a good quality.

Okay, so in my quest for Sagume's face

QQ about it, why does she always cover it?! It's a pretty face, so what does she see wrong with it?

[up][up] I think it's to symbolize her being careful in her choice of words? That she doesn't speak a lot.

It symbolizes that she has a giant goddamn zit on her chin.

She's probably covering her mouth to make it harder to speak carelessly.

Sumireko

I see what you did there, Moe. Well played.

I find it funny how Sagume has two different spellcards that can be captured just by going up to her face and shooting her.

Okay, so in my quest for Sagume's face ...

Now what did Sagume's face ever do to you? tongue

But seriously, that is a pretty face considering that ZUN's art style doesn't allow for much detail, it's partially obscured by her hand, and fanart will definitely vary. The other time I found myself liking a ZUN-art face was with Seija's DDC portrait. Is having Amanojaku and the gods they inspired having pretty faces going to be a thing?

And speaking of Sagume, she apparently makes heavy use of those yin-yang things. Wondering what those things exactly are has been bugging me ever since I first saw them in DDC. So, what are they?

Also, a new Setz 4-koma.

Here, they seem to be autonomous weapons created by the Lunarians. One of her spellcards is called "Impurity Detecting-type Mines", and there are references to the Lunar Capital being completely empty of life other than Sagume, so I've kind of been assuming that they're magical robots she controls.

Which only makes them appearing in earlier games more confusing

Well, their appearance in DDC could be explained by them being animated by the Miracle Mallet's power like the Tsukumo sisters were, but that still doesn't explain how they were even there to be animated in the first place. Did they appear in any other games?

You mean thcrap? That's still in progress, it's not compatible with Lo LK yet.
