4Touhou Tonari (full name: Touhou Tonari Atte Futari, Mukai Atte Sannin, Two By This Side, Three By The Other Side) is a ''Franchise/TouhouProject'' fan manga released in 2008 written and illustrated by "Personal Color" focusing on Yuyuko's backstory and her relation to Yukari based on known facts and fan speculations from Perfect Cherry Blossom. As one might expect, it's a TearJerker.

7!!This fan manga provides examples of:
8* TheAloner: Just in case the quote at the top of the page didn't hammer the point home.
9* BadPowersGoodPeople: [[{{Deconstruction}} Deconstructed]], [[BreakTheCutie ha]][[DespairEventHorizon rd]].
10* BittersweetEnding: Yukari fells into an HeroicBSOD after touching the diary and seeing Yuyuko's last moments alive. Yuyuko, believing the girl in the diary to be someone else, tells Yukari to come to terms with the girl's death and Yuyuko is happy that Yukari loves her for who she is and not being a ReplacementGoldfish. Yes, Yuyuko might never know the truth about the dead girl buried in the Saigyou Ayakashi, but this is the happy ending they could get.
11* ButterflyOfDeathAndRebirth: This was how Yuyuko's power manifested when she was alive.
12* CooldownHug: Yuyuko gives Yukari one after she had touched the diary and seen Yuyuko's last moments alive, sending Yukari into an HeroicBSOD. This is the only thing that prevents this work from having a DownerEnding.
13* CuteGhostGirl: Yuyuko, of course.
14* DespairEventHorizon
15** DespairSpeech: soon follows.
16* DoomedByCanon: Yuyuko, what with her being aforementioned Cute Ghost Girl.
17* DramaticDrop: Yuyuko drops her paper fan after Yukari touched one of her butterflies and survived, directly followed by her shedding tears.
18* DrivenToSuicide
19* GetAHoldOfYourselfMan: Yuyuko delivers this to Yukari in one scene.
20* HeavySleeper: Yukari, with a rather dark twist. The events of Yuyuko's death caused her to be severly traumatized and she gets a HeroicBSOD every winter if she doesn't.
21* HeroicBSOD: Yuyuko has this when she noticed that her butterflies started to cause pain even for Yukari after the latter had spent several years by her side removing said butterflies. Yuyuko's suicide soon followed.
22** Said suicide caused one for Yukari as well.
23* IntergenerationalFriendship: Yuyuko, a young girl with the ability to invoke death and Yukari, an [[TimeAbyss ancient]] RealityWarper.
24* OriginalFlavour: This being a fanfic set in Yuyuko's past it attempts to stick close to ''Touhou'' canon.
25* PowerIncontinence: This was a severe problem for Yuyuko when she was alive, her power sometimes leaked if she didn't use it regularly.
26* ReplacementGoldfish: Yuyuko considers herself to be a substitute of sorts for the girl buried under the Saigyou Ayakashi, noticing that Yukari was very fond of her, not knowing that the girl is herself. Half of the plot is Yuyuko attempting to show Yukari that she is her own person and to come to terms with the girl's death.
27* SuperPowerMeltdown: Ran asked Yukari to why she didn't just seal Yuyuko's power. Yukari replied with that this would be the inevitable end result.
28* TenderTears: When Yukari appeared unaffected by the butterflies of death, Yuyuko shed these.
29* [[WhatTheHellHero What The Hell Yukari]]: Yuyuko confronts Yukari about her decision to revive Yuyuko claiming that she was just running away rather than face the sadness of losing someone.
30* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: The fic has [[CuteGhostGirl Yuyuko Saigyouji]] not able to control her powers over death while she was alive, which caused her to [[DrivenToSuicide commit suicide]].
