** Chimata is losing her power since physical markets are becoming less and less common. While it's obviously a nod to how online shopping is becoming more and more popular, this game also released right in the middle of the UsefulNotes/COVID19Pandemic, when lockdown regulations caused physical markets to be downright prohibited. ZUN even discusses the pandemic itself in the game's Afterword. In addition, Chimata's domain more specifically covers marketplaces to commemorate specific occasions...like [[FanConvention Comiket or Reitaisai]], where ''Touhou'' games are usually physically sold by ZUN himself. As noted in the main page, this is the first ''Touhou'' game to be released digitally first.

** Chimata and Iizunamaru's Ability Card scheme bear some uncanny resemblances to cryptocurrencies, which were at the height of their popularity when the game was released. The Ability Cards have their power if you follow the rules, but will turn into worthless scraps otherwise, just like how cryptocurrencies only work if people agree on their value. Additionally, the process of gathering more cryptocurrency is frequently called "mining" while here we have Momoyo literally mining the currency in a cave.

--> I still can't get over the fact that ZUN actually made a game about a bunch of people running a crypto scheme:
--> A powerful figure who try to turn their own TCG project into a crypto scheme under certain influences? Check
--> A legendary miner who literally mines the magical sauce from a mine to power the cryptocurrency? Check
--> A God with zippers (read: the block chain) and sky cape (read: the Cloud) who creates smart contract that makes the crypto scheme work in the first place? Check
--> A crypto shill that causes the above 3 to align? Check
--> NFT: The Game confirmed. Well played, ZUN.

** It's worth mentioning, though, that the game and its sequel end with pretty much all of Gensokyo agreeing on the value of Ability Cards, and so they become a permanent part of Gensokyo for the time being. Make of that what you will.
