History WMG / TwilightFrontier

* Presuming that Sumireko is Renko's grandmother or great-grandmother, Yukari, being the woman who was once Maribel Hearn, '''''REALLY''''' doesn't want to do or say anything that would invalidate Sumireko's future, which is Yukari's past. As the locus of a StableTimeLoop, Yukari quite literally has the most to lose out of anyone should Sumireko not reach adulthood and start the bloodline that will produce Renko, since losing Renko from her life as Maribel would catastrophically alter her timeline, and potentially "kill" Yukari by altering events severely enough that Maribel never falls backwards through time and ages into the Youkai Sage of Boundaries. This, to put it mildly, would, at least, risk the existence of Gensokyo, due to the absence of the Great Hakurei Barrier's architect. At worst, we are looking at a full-blown TimeCrash when causality fails to parse how to deal with the loop being broken. Yukari Yakumo has put Sumireko Usami in her blind spot, and quite likely under her undeclared protection, to ensure that her very first friend will eventually be born, and that, hopefully, once she completes her loop and watches Maribel vanish into the past, they can be reunited, perhaps culminating in Yukari spiriting Renko away to Gensokyo as she has so many others.

Yukari is extremely sensitive about the Gensokyo barrier this is clear when she delivered a no holds barred beat down on Tenshi for wrecking the shrine. Wouldn't Yukari do something similar or worse to someone who regularly punches in the barrier like Sumireko did? Time travel is a concept that ZUN has used before in his printed works so extrapolating on the theory Yukari being from the future; maybe Yukari knows that Sumireko is going to be the ancestor of Renko Usami. Even Marisa points out how weird it is that Yukari of all people did not do a thing when Sumireko was running amok; maybe Yukari was lying about the new world order to hide her knowledge about Sumireko.

This page is for theories about games by Creator/TwilightFrontier, primarily VideoGame/{{Touhou}} games, or OriginalGeneration characters they have made.

[[WMG:[[Characters/TouhouUndefinedFantasticObject Nue Houjuu]] will appear in [=ULiL=].]]

[[WMG:[[Characters/TouhouPerfectCherryBlossom Yukari Yakumo]] is aware of Sumireko's future.]]

[[WMG: Sumireko Usami is Renko's and Maribel's ancestor in [=ULiL=].]]
* For being Renko's ancestor, she looks similar to Renko and shares a last name. For Maribel, this is a stretch but she ends up going to Gensokyo in her dreams, like Maribel does.
* Sumireko is also the "Secret Sealing Club's First President," Maribel and Renko are both in the Sealing Club as well.
* Sumireko also created gaps to the outside world, which we all know Maribel can see said gaps.
* Sumireko uses a road sign in her attacks, and the only other person that does is Yukari. Maribel is suspected of turning into Yukari later in her life.

* Sumireko also created gaps to the outside world, which we all know Maribel can see said gaps.

* Jossed. She had nothing to do with the final boss.

* Jossed. [[spoiler:"Hanako" ''is'' the final boss. It's just that her name's not Hanako.]]

[[WMG:[[spoiler: [[Characters/TouhouUndefinedFantasticObject Nue Houjuu]] will appear in [=ULiL=].]]]]
[[spoiler:Hey, most of her Double Spoiler spell cards are based on Urban Legends, why she not could be associated with the Hanako?]]
* [[spoiler:Jossed. She had nothing to do with the final boss.]]

* Jossed. "Hanako" is the final boss. [[spoiler:It's just that her name's not Hanako.]]

* Jossed. She had nothing to do with the final boss.

[[WMG:Two completely out there guesses for ULiL...]]

[[spoiler:Hey, most of her Double Spoiler spell cards are based on Urban Legends, why she not could be associated with the Hanako?]]

Rather I think that Hanako might be the villain but the final boss is rather something (or someone) that was brought to life thanks to her power, intentionally or otherwise.

* Second, this is being released on the 20th anniversary of Touhou, so they may [[spoiler:bring back "She-who-shall-not-be-named".]] But I'm probably dreaming...

* First, they decided to troll anyone that looked at the code; Hanako=[[spoiler:Hana Ko=Flower Child.]] Not technically lying, but not the whole truth.

They merge whenever a fighting game occurs.
