Why is Akyuu's heel so shiny?

Windex. You can buff shoes to a superb shine! And while on a budget!

Shoes don't exist in Gensokyo, Marisa has killed all of them.

I thought Flandre stole them all

She is a registered shoe burglar.

I suppose that explains why less characters have shoes these days.

[up]Not really a fan of that fic. I prefer Kingdom Hearts of an Eastern Wonderland, as the better fic.

She's not wearing shoes

They're buffed so shiny they're transparent.

Either that or she uses Windex to buff her feet to a nice shine.

I'd like to think all protagonists are present at the same time, it's just that in their own perspective, they ignore the others and sometimes see themselves as the only ones resolving the incident.

Haha, that's very Touhouesque! grin

IN and UFO have or are heavily implied to have followed one route. ZUN mentioned Marisa B did UFO. The Moon mangas more or less confirm that Scarlet Team is the route that did IN.

Considering that you have to fight Reimu or Mariaa in IN, that one was never gonna be "all the routes".

Very true, very true! Canon is clear on those instances, not gonna dispute those. In others, it's still possible that we have multiple protagonists smile

I can't be the only person who does not care in the slightest about which game route is canon, can I? Why is this a thing?

The answers by Enlong and Tom are exactly my opinion here, too smile Was not supposed to be something serious.

I'm the biggest canon-freak around

I've just realized something. I feel like I've seen Aya's alternate outfit from her FS chapter somewhere before.

Like, at the 1:45 mark of this classic:

I wonder if this is a simple coincidence, or if it's a deliberate Shout-Out. Either way, it's Hilarious in Hindsight.

They're independently referencing totally different things that happen to look slightly similar if you squint. Back in ye olden days, hats used to be pretty popular.

[up][up]I remember seeing way back in the earlier days of the thread. Some people were excited to see it but then ZUN said no and all we ever got was a single trailer. Specificly this one:

Oh hey, apparently each route in ULiL has a brief introduction providing some context. Highlights:

  • Futo chose Okiku-san because it fit her, but ended up affected by her own curse and that's why she's looking for the tenth plate. In other words, Futo screwed up again.
  • Kappa don't believe in urban legends, but wanted to profit off of this so they made the Nessie machine. Seems to have been a group kappa effort.
  • Byakuren specifically set out to stop Miko from gathering the balls.
  • Kokoro tried to become the Kuchisake-onna (as an actor?) but in doing so gave birth to a new personality within herself. This also created a brand new Occult Ball that wasn't sent by Sumireko (which is why Miko is surprised by it in Kokoro's route).
  • The narration mocks Shinmyoumaru for having a stupid interpretation of the rumor.
