Touhou

She'll be 23 this year, Akyuu was born in 1994.

Eating a Vanilluxe will give you frostbite.

Such an interesting chapter I really can't wait for the next one.

That "infinite truths" line is pure gold and I'm nabbing it for the FS page's pagequote.

Thanks for the chapter! Wow, FS went from Monster of the Week to the very fundamentals of Gensokyo (now with Yukari!). I wonder if it'll get even bigger from here.

Hmm, I also wonder how many Japanese Touhou fans read or have access to Perfect Memento in Strict Sense, anyways (Pretty sure it's just the English Wiki that transcribes anything and everything). To a person who hasn't read it and partook in discussions about it, FS must be filled with all sorts of WHAM chapters.

A summary of today's chapter

Eating a Vanilluxe will give you frostbite.

She probably has no idea Yukari's a youkai.

Song of the Sirens

From the broken status quo, the change in the 'event of the day' episodic format, and Yukari meeting up with the focus character, we might be near the end of Forbidden Scrollery or at least near the penultimate chapter. This is similar to the last few chapters of Sa BND, complete with a Yukari showing up. What do you think?

Great chapter, this one. Kosuzu's like a realtively new Touhou fan getting a crash course in Gensokyo lore.

Murdering time and space. Now on Twitter.

We're about three chapters into volume 7, with five more to go.

I really like that veiled Reimu. She looks faintly sinister.

Well, the story she told at the hundred ghost stories event was about her falling asleep with her arm gapped, so I'd say Kosuzu might be able to guess that she is.

The Living Guildpact rules that coffee is an acceptable substitution for rest as specified in subsection … whatever.

You know, I always wondered what that piece of cloth-thingy that Reimu is wearing right there was. The one with the yin-yang symbol on it. I've seen in video games and anime, but I wasn't quite sure what it was.

Yama and the Legs of Justice.

I found this on Reddit.

"We are just like Irregular Data. And that applies to you too, Ri CO. And as for you, Player... your job is to correct Irregular Data."

Kosuzu's reaction at the time was basically "what? I don't get it." She'd probably assume that Yukari is very bad at telling stories before guessing that she's a youkai. Like, what would a person who's unfamiliar with Touhou even think of you saying she "gapped her arm" just now? It'd be meaningless gibberish. That's how Kosuzu feels about that story.

So once again the day is ruined! Thanks to the Tao-erpuff Girls!

Say, is it known which of the Komeiji sisters was designed first?

I'm curious cause their designs are so closely related to each other (The negatived color scheme thing and all).

Is not known but probably ZUN created Satori first, as Extra stages tend to be somewhat different from the main plot, which comes first.

They were probably based on The Two Fridas. If that's true I think it's unlikely that he designing one without at the very least having a good grasp on what the other would be like.

And that's how I ended up in the wardrobe. It Just Bugs Me!

Will we ever get some answers as to why Keine was cursed? It's been bugging me for years, and it wasn't addressed at all since her profile.

She was bitten by a were-cow. I'm not sure this requires more explanation.

Do the human villagers know about Keine being a half-cow defender of humanity or is she some sort of superhero with a secret identity? (Who probably eats the history of her being found out whenever it happens)

Superhero Keine might make for a fun story.

If she was a werewolf it'd be a fine explanation, but Hakutaku are extremely intelligent and benevolent creatures - they don't go around and bite people..
