-->'''Reimu:''' [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters There]] [[FantasyKitchenSink are]] [[CrowningMomentOfFunny way too many]].

* GroundhogDayLoop: By Episode 3, [[spoiler:Alice and Patchouli are beginning to suspect that either this is happening, or the memories of the previous day are being erased from the minds of everyone in Gensokyo so they only ''think'' this is happening.]]

* FreudianSlip: Sakuya at one point almost referred Meiling as [[FanNickname "China"]], before correcting it.

* GroundhogDayLoop: By Episode 3, [[spoiler:Alice and Patchouli are beginning to suspect that everyone in Gensokyo is repeating "the day of the banquet" over and over again, and the disappearing objects are a symptom of the TimeyWimeyBall this has created.]]

* ShoutOut: One of the books in the first shot of the Voile Library is titled [[TheOtherWiki Wikipedia.]]

* BathtubScene: Patchy gets one in the second episode.

The first episode was released at Comiket 75, on December 29th, 2008, with the second episode being released at Comiket 82 on August 12th, 2012, and episode 2.5 released on May 11th, 2014; it was originally planned for a total of three episodes, but the end of the third episode suggested a fourth episode. The series was originally titled the ''Touhou Anime Project'', but was changed to its current name after ZUN, the creator of the games, expressed concern over it being mistaken for an official product.

* BathScene: Patchy gets one in the second episode.

* BreastExpansion: Reisen now has visible boobs. And as of Episode 3, she's not the only one, as we can also see Patchouli's own breasts being visible through her clothes, and especially during her own BathScene.

* GilliganCut: After the credits of episode two, Reimu remembers sending Suika on an errand and then leaving. Reimu imagines Suika asking where she went. Cut to a drunken Suika at the shrine saying those exact words.

* MythologyGag: Kaguya does this ''half-asleep''. She's holding a SegaSaturn controller (after we just went through a conversation with [[VisualPun Yuyuko]]), and she's even been playing [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall STGs and danmaku games]]. Aya, however, [[UpToEleven takes this further]]: she has the camera charge meter from her own games as she's taking a picture!

* MarshmallowHell: In the second episode, Yuyuko takes Youmu into her arms and applies this trope to cheer her up, after Youmu despaired about not being able to get a watermelon back safely.

* CastingGag:
** It's too obvious why they choose Creator/RieTanaka (Sakuya) for [[Anime/HanaukyoMaidTai voicing]] [[Manga/HayateTheCombatButler a maid]].
** Similarly, it's also too obvious why they chose Creator/AiKayano (Yuyuko) - she voiced [[Anime/AnoHanaTheFlowerWeSawThatDay a certain ghost]].
** Ditto with Creator/AoiYuki (Youmu), since she voiced a [[LightNovel/HyakkaRyouranSamuraiGirls sword-wielding girl]] or was [[Manga/DanceInTheVampireBund related with the undead]].
** Or Creator/YukaIguchi (Tewi), since she voiced another girl [[VideoGame/ChousokuHenkeiGyrozetter whose last name is Inaba]], or [[VideoGame/SenranKagura related with rabbits]].
** A more complex one involving Creator/KikukoInoue: Assuming she's Yukari Yakumo, she already voiced one girl with a similar name: '''Yukari'''ko [[Anime/MaiHime Sanada]]. And has a [[RunningGag habit of]] [[BlatantLies understating]] [[OlderThanTheyLook her age]], much like the [[{{Fanon}} fanon]] version of Yukari.

* AllStarCast: See the [[http://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Musou_Kakyou:_A_Summer_Day%27s_Dream Touhou Wiki entry]] for a complete list and links to their Anime News Network articles. Notably, Creator/AkiToyosaki (as Suika) was the least well-known member of the cast at the time the first episode was released, about four months before her breakout role as Yui in ''Manga/KOn''.
** This is more than likely the real reason for the delays--having to pay to use these big names probably isn't cheap as well has having having the time to do voice-work for a work like this.

* DevelopmentHell: Where the third episode currently resides.

* NoExportForYou: There are English subtitles, thanks in part to [[PromotedFanboy KirbyM]]. So, for all you English-speaking fans that want to support MAIKAZE and hopefully push the second and third episodes out of DevelopmentHell... good luck with that. Almost none of the retailers who stock the first disc ship internationally.
** [[http://www.paletweb.com Palet Web]] is one that does.

* PromotedFanboy: [=KirbyM=], better known as the creator of the popular [[http://walfas.org Walfas]] fansite, was specifically [[http://www.walfas.org/?p=624 asked to help]] with the official English subtitles for the DVD release.

* RelationshipVoiceActor: They haven't directly interacted with each other, but Marisa and Sakuya are [[RozenMaiden Shinkuu and Suigintou]] respectively
** And then there's Yukari and Reimu (if the EpilepticTrees prove to be true), who are [[VisualNovel/{{Clannad}} Sanae and Nagisa]] respectively.
** Reimu and Marisa are [[YggdraUnion Yggdra and Milanor]] respectively.
** Most of the female voice cast also worked in the ''QueensBlade'' franchise.
** Patchouli and Remilia's VA's also voiced [[VideoGame/ArcanaHeart Heart Aino and Eko]] respectively.

** Ditto with Creator/AoiYuki (Youmu), since she voiced a [[HyakkaRyouranSamuraiGirls sword-wielding girl]] or was [[Manga/DanceInTheVampireBund related with the undead]].

''Musou Kakyou: A Summer Day's Dream'' is a {{Fanime}} based off of the popular ''VideoGame/{{Touhou}}'' games. (Its official heading is ''Touhou Niji Sousaku Doujin Anime'', "Touhou Derived Work Indie Anime.") However, unlike most {{Fanime}}, this one has a significant difference: it was produced by the well-known [[{{Doujinshi}} doujin]] group MAIKAZE, who managed to gain a lot of notoriety with the project by roping in some ''very'' big-name voice actresses to help out (Creator/RieTanaka (Sakuya), KikukoInoue (the narrator), and Creator/MaiNakahara (Reimu), among others).
