I'd love to see Aokigohara Forest.

"But don't give up hope. Everyone is cured sooner or later. In the end we shall shoot you." - O'Brien, 1984^ I'd see it too, if for no other reason than to see what the hubbub is about.
"Allah may guide their bullets, but Jesus helps those who aim down the sights."That forest looks like something the Sealing Club would investigate.
I can't belive you linked the images I uploaded.

Well, one of the music tracks on Retrospective 53 Minutes was called "Legend of Aokigahara"...
"What's the matter, Merry? You look scary all of a sudden."
"I suddenly felt kinda sick. Don't you feel it, Renko? The space we're now is a bit different from normal. Also, I can see a gap in the border... Maybe it's a bug in the screen-controlling program?"
"Ah, perhaps we're under the sacred mountain. The atmosphere is a little different... No, wait, it might even be the dimension that's different. You're such a worry-wart that it's making you overly nervous."
"Oh, I see, so we're under Mt. Fuji. But I do know about Mt. Fuji. It's been said there's an entrance to the Netherworld underneath it since ancient times. But it's a volcano, isn't it? I wonder if it was safe to build a tunnel here."
"Stop worrying so much. Just have a drink and stop being so pessimistic. When Mt. Fuji was recognized as a World Heritage Site, they designated it as an extinct volcano, so it's no longer merely dormant. Remember?"
The Boyu Tokaido was designed just to connect Tokyo and Kyoto, but the government had to do quite a bit to assuage fears and concerns of tunneling under Mt. Fuji. It makes a detour underneath of a sea of trees instead. But there are a lot of bad legends about the woods surrounding Mt. Fuji, so it may have affected the operation and number of passengers that would ride it. With that mindset, they never announced it officially.
Oh wait, that forest is at the foot of Mount Fuji? Aha, I see. There's a neat connection. Kaguya's Last Word in IN, Tree-Ocean of Hourai, is a reference to that place.
Which makes for a neat connection to both her own original myth, and to Mokou's Fujiyama Volcano card/connection to Fujiyama in general.

I have a message from another time...Forbidden Scrollery 51 now out on Batoto with weird distracting lines on the borders that I couldn't see in my image editor because it always highlights the layer you're working on! Seriously, that strikes me as terrible image editor design.
What a cliffhanger!
Still don't get why the title is "Reimu's Miscalculation" though.

Nice! I just finished re-reading WaHH, too.
Oh, wow, this chapter looks just like a battle shonen manga.
My best guess is that it's "The Reimu Miscalculation", since Yukari miscalculated because of Reimu. Doesn't make much sense though, no. Probably an intentionally misleading title of the chapter.
I'd imagine the next one will be "Yukari Yakumo's Something"
So are we going into Part 3 and 4 now?
And, does this mean the fourth Deva will finally reveal themselves, if oni's actually referring to the species of youkai?

Eating a Vanilluxe will give you frostbite.Mamizou and the Tanukis vs. the Oni of the Night Parade Scroll! Reimu vs. Yukari! Marisa vs. a Really Bad Headache! How will all these fights come to a conclusion? Will Reimu actually exterminate Yukari?! Find out next time in JESUS CHRIST ZUN SLOW THE FUCK DOWN the Series.
Stella ~Part 3 (Atelier Shallie)I've been labeling the titles as "Part 1" and "Part 2", but in Japanese it's more like "First Half" and "Second Half". Even if this particular story continues, I'd imagine they'll have new titles.
Yukari Fucking Yakumo
Templates like that might be forbidden, but she doesn't give a fuck.
Heart of StoneSo the demon in the scroll is an oni. Is this oni as in a generic "demon" meaning, or oni species like Suika?
Also, the oni absorbs tsukumogami. The Miracle Mallet, created by oni, creates tsukumogami. There's gotta be a connection here
Hyakki yagyou uses the kanji for oni, but it refers to youkai in general, not necessarily oni. I believe it's ambiguous in the text?

The scroll's name uses the character generically, but Mamizou calls it "the oni of the hundred demon night parade picture scroll". Given how often the characters refer to it as a youkai normally, I think the use of oni there has to be intentional.

I see. Thanks for the clarification! Hype for potential fourth deva!
Whoa, cliffhangers! This is pretty much a buildup chapter to what is pretty much the final boss(es) of Forbidden Scrollery.
Also, Mamizou actually looks pretty cool here. Not a set of words I thought I'd be saying often.
So, do you think we're finally going to have a proper danmaku battle in a manga since S Si B again?
