History Roleplay / TouhouAGlimmerOfAnOutsideWorld

* StringyHairedGhostGirl: The Panko is [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onry%C5%8D a Onryo]], a vengeful spirit who returns to the mortal world for revenge. This being [[SugarBowl Gensokyo]] [[spoiler: And her being a Goddess when alive]], she's actually subverts the trope and the [[TheGrudge usual]] [[TheRing Onryo]] [[AlwaysChaoticEvil nature]]. Doesn't stop her desires for revenge though. [[spoiler: For at while at least.]]

[[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13112909020A54642800&page=1 Touhou: a Glimmer of an Outside World]] is a forum roleplay[=/=]{{fanfic}} with the same general plot as every single ''VideoGame/Touhou'' game: find out who’s causing the latest incident—mysterious rips in the border between Gensokyo and the outside world—and stop them. Naturally, this got vastly more complicated than it needed to be, with at least twenty different characters—[[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill many of them stage 6 or EX-bosses]]—getting involved. [[AttentionDeficitOohShiny They mostly got distracted.]]

* JapaneseHonorifics:
** Marisa's calling Reimu by her actual name rather than 'Rei-chan' is a sign she's worried Reimu will solve the incident before her.
** Yukari's calling Yuyuko anything other than Yuyu-chan [[OhCrap is a sign she's being serious.]]
** {{Averted}} with some players who never use them and prefer western variants.

** Yasora have made Shout Outs to ''Anime/MobileFighterGGundam'', ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam00'', ''Manga/CaptainTsubasa'', ''VideoGame/SengokuBasara'', ''VideoGame/SoulNomadAndTheWorldEaters'', ''Franchise/{{Disgaea}}'', ''[[Franchise/EvilDead Army of Darkness]]'' and ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2''.

** Cirno, since she has trouble remembering names. Examples include 'flower lady'[[note]]Yuuka[/note]], 'black-white laser witch'[[note]]Marisa[[/note]], and 'the purple lady'[[note]]Patchouli[[/note]].

!!Tropes exhibited by this work:[[note]]Canonical—or common fanon—tropes go [[VideoGame/{{Touhou}} here.[[/note]]

* AnticlimaxBoss: Gengetsu was one of the hardest bosses in Touhou games, but was defeated by Yasora easily. Maybe she was holding back after hearing that Yasora was not going to use spellcards?

* FoeYay: Mokou and Kaguya. {{Subverted}} with Yasora: suggesting that she has it for Yukari is her BerserkButton.

* FridgeBrilliance: What do magicians always say? That there's nothing up their sleeves. Where does Mima [[{{Hammerspace}} keep everything and anything?]] Her sleeves, even things that logically can't fit.

* MundaneUtility: Reimu can use ofuda as protection from rain when she doesn't have an umbrella.

* {{Ofuda}}: Yukari used them to place plates and cups for a meal ''in the sky''.

* WhiteHairedPrettyGirl: In addition to Mokou, there’s Yukari[[note]]She bleached her hair for a while because she was bored[[/note]], Momiji, Kaori, and an albino fairy. Oh, and the villain.

* WhiteHairedPrettyGirl: In addition to Mokou, there’s Yukari[[hottip:*:She bleached her hair for a while because she was bored]], Momiji, Kaori, and an albino fairy. Oh, and the villain.

!!Tropes exhibited by this work:[[hottip:*:Canonical—or common fanon—tropes go [[VideoGame/{{Touhou}} here.]]

* {{Meido}}: Mima likes to dress people as[[hottip:*:and make them into]] maids, to the extent she's got maid outfits in her sleeves.

* SmokingIsCool: Mokou certainly falls under this. It's not as if it can kill her or make her health any ''worse'', though. Kaguya occasionally gets in on it, too, which is behind the NoodleIncident fire in canon.[[hottip:*:Mokou accidentally incinerated Kaguya's head and set the forest on fire when lighting a cigarette.]]

** Cirno, since she has trouble remembering names. Examples include 'flower lady'[[hottip:*:Yuuka]], 'black-white laser witch'[[hottip:*:Marisa]], and 'the purple lady'[[hottip:*:Patchouli]].
** Yuuka delved into this for a bit when she gave titles to everyone in her 'party' at the time. Such as 'Fairy of Hell Fire Resisting Ice' [[hottip:*: Cirno]], 'Prism Vampire of Darkness' [[hottip:*: Flandre]] and 'Youkai of Eternally Blooming Flowers' [[hottip:*: Yuuka herself]] among many others.

** Yasora have made Shout Outs to GGundam, [[MobileSuitGundam00 Gundam00]], CaptainTsubasa, SengokuBasara, SoulNomad, {{Disgaea}}, ArmyOfDarkness and VideoGame/TeamFortress2.
** OverlyLongGag from Manga/DeathNote.

** Shujiko is supposed to be one to Shonen tropes, although the most prominent examples would be [[{{Dragonball}} changing her hair colour]] and drawing upon [[{{Bleach}} excessive amounts of resolve and willpower]] during battles.

!!Tropes exhibited by this work:[[hottip:*:Canonical—or common fanon—tropes go [[{{Touhou}} here.]]

* CastFullOfGay: ''[[AvertedTrope Averted]]'', despite this being a {{Touhou}} roleplay. Komachi is straight and Suwako says she's "Hetrosexual".

* DifferentAsNightAndDay: Mugetsu is willing to do anything to 'reclaim' her land from Yuuka's possession, even holding Chen hostage. Gengetsu likes to mess around and fight strong opponents other than Yuuka.

* CuteGhostGirl: Ranma Saigyouji And the Cute Unnamed Onryo (named Panko) [[spoiler: Panko brutally subverts this in Ecthel's BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind, where Panko dips right into the Nightmare Fuel as her Onryo instincts take over.]]

* ThanksForTheMammary: Komachi in her sleep did this to Aya. Something tells ThisTroper That it won't be the last time this happens in this RP.
* TheNicknamer: /

!!Tropes exhibited by this work:[[hottip:*:Canonical—or common fanon—tropes go [[{{Touhou}} here.]]]]

* ThisIsSparta: I. Am. Gundam!

* TooDumbToLive: Panko. Her pride and [[YouthIsWastedOnTheDumb youthful stupidity]] usually drives her to make very life threatening choices. Despite already being a ghost, Her postmortem life has consisted of her getting [[BeyondTheImpossible killed twice]] (and beaten up by a Youkai Bear) [[WhatAnIdiot for picking fights she could not win.]]

** [[LittleKidLover Everyone (wrongly) suspects Yuuka of that. ]]

** OverlyLongGag from DeathNote.

* PoorCommunicationKills: Yukari hadn't visited Reimu in a while, then holes in the barrier started appearing. Naturally, Reimu blamed Yukari... who had nothing to do with it. Cue CurbStompBattle.

** Yasora have made Shout Outs to GGundam, [[MobileSuitGundam00 Gundam00]], CaptainTsubasa, SengokuBasara, SoulNomad, {{Disgaea}}, ArmyOfDarkness and TeamFortress2.

** [[TouhouNekokayou Yasora]] is attempting this. She hasn’t had any luck.

* InterfaceSpoiler: During Utsuho's introdution she spoke normally. After she was hit in the head, her speech text turned [[gold:gold]]. It's a major hint to her being possessed even for people unfamiliar with TouhouNekokayou.

* BlatantLies: First signup post states that it will '''not''' be ultra-dark Gensokyo. Enters [[BigBad Natsumi,]] CompleteMonster whoes goal is TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt. And she kicks a lot of puppies. Yeah, not dark at all.

** InformedAttribute: Because of lack of male characters in the game, girls rarely have chance to avert a previous trope other way, then TakeOurWordForIt.

** Mima managed to cause Yasora move from respect to such level of hatered, that Yasora pointed a gun on her before speaking.

* CriticalResearchFailure: All characters act like they came from danbooru, but not from {{Canon}} as @/AnnoR and Co claims.
