I think to talk deeply about the subject, in a manner that isn't obscene, inevitably touches on subjects like why people suffer or do bad things. The existence of Youkai, Deities, and other supernatural beings and phenomena can be thought of as either embodiments of forces or human abstractions. In either case it's easier to think about an abstraction and relate it to our own experience or positions we've found ourselves in.
Ultimately, we've all sinned at some point in our lives and caused suffering as well as received it so considering these extremes in fiction can bring us closer to the truth.

On an unrelated note, I absolutely want to help Hijiri come to peace with the fact that everyone dies and also bury my face in her fluffy grandma hair.

Okay yeah kappa in mythology kill and possibly same applies to normal touhou but what about the yamawaro in touhou from what’s shown they’re at worst just rude, they like money, partake in some gambling, do laborious work, and essentially LARP (war games). And In mythology from what I could find at least they’re never stated to just straight up kill people like kappa at most they just get pissy if you don’t give them the promised stuff you offered them for work nothing more. So with this info could you reasonably be on good terms and perhaps now this is going to sound crazy since it’s a thread like this befriend one if you can manage to get past their rudeness and other quirks since it seems like they won’t kill you

>>46906687
Pretty sure most people around the world don't live in what constitutes a work camp that allows them to be executed for any act of rebellion. Americans can storm the capitol on Jan 6 and threaten to kill the vice president and most of them either get away with it scott free or get relatively light sentences... also you admitting that humans "have it as good as it gets" Is literally proving my point that it sucks ass.

>village is protected from natural disasters
Only because their extinction would be bad for the youkai, they don't do it out of the kindness of their hearts

>Killing humans is forbidden
Unless said human tries to escape/warn other people about the conditions of the human village or have any idea of rebellion... even then, youkai can still kill people outside of the village, and even if you are from the village they can beat the ever loving fuck out of you or torture and kidnap you like the Tengu have been shown to do or like what happened to Marisa.

>You can freely learn magic
I mean in Touhou you could do that in the outside world as well, that's what Sumireko does anyway.

>They would end up in a huge world they don't understand without any identification, without any money and speaking old Japanese.
I guarantee most of them would rather being forced to adapt to the wonders of the modern world in a place like japan with little to no crime and wonderful modern conveniences than ever live in a shithole like the Human Village again. And the language barrier is a non-issue since every other modern day japanese person that ends up in Gensokyo is able to talk to the villagers just fine without there being an impossible language barrier.

Has Touhou really seen a surge of younger fans? I've heard this on and off for years, but surely it's a nipland only phenomenon if true? I can't see many western kids getting into decades worth of source/fan material for some niche STG series.

Weren't there not one, but several Touhou fanart contests for kids? As in, 6-10 year olds? And if you take part in that sort of activities as a child, there are chances you'll keep enjoying it as a teen and adult.
Also, I scored a Touhou themed book at a con, and it looks like a drawing/coloring book for kids. I mean, the kanji are even "subtitled" in hiragana.

>There is even evidence of this with sightings of Constantine by both the author and his fans, and even Conan the Barbarian showed up in the room and threatened his author to finish his series or else, then disappeared, only to come back for a few days in a row until Conan himself was satisfied. Praise Crom, right?
First I hear of this, qrd?
>>
>>46913736
QRD is literally just that. People have sightings or actual encounters with these "fictional" characters, ranging for many, many decades. It goes back to the sightings of monsters and gods of our ancestors, but these are just the modern interpretations of that experience. Just like my run-in with Sakuya, Mamizou, and all the rest, both physical and mental space, and the ones that others have seen, etc.
John Constantine shows up to people, even talks to some, and has his own sightings page on the site.
Conan the Barbarian showed up to the author and threatened him with an axe.
There have been sightings of The Shadow protagonist, Slenderman to a woman who had no idea what it was, sightings of the MIB, and on and on.

There are so many thoughts and theories on what it is or could be, from psychotic episodes and mass hallucinations, to the physical embodiment of egregores, tulpas, sightings of gods and monsters that exist separately, to the idea of parallel dimensions or universes and how we create reality.

The short of it is: "I don't know what happened, but character from xyz was right there and now they're gone! You gotta believe me!".(just like that one Anon was complaining about with me up above somewhere)

Somewhere along the line, we stopped calling it sightings of gods and forgot about them, and now "they're in Gensokyo". Like the plot from the Urban Legends and the human faced dog sightings.

Hear me out. I understand this is a bit of a self-defeating premise because of how ZUN treats his own series. Subjectivity is so celebrated within canon that even official works will adopt vastly different ideas to help reinforce it. But there are aspects to Touhou that, even if they may change on the outside, don't change at heart.

The series is so multi-faceted that I don't think it's possible to answer completely what makes a work feel Touhou. And I don't think any two people would feel 100% the same about even the things they do agree on (aside from easy givens like the use of East Asian mythology). For example, if I had to answer, the feel of an official Touhou work has to have either one of two things. One, an escalation from playful tension to vibrant chaos, since this is how the games tend to go. Or two, the mysterious nature that hangs around Gensokyo, since this is often what doujin works (official or not) like to explore, even if episodically. My question to you /jp/ is what do YOU think when having to answer this?

Why are people so afraid to give rabbit girls more rabbit features? Like come on, give them an overbite, and don't skimp on things like binkies and zoomies, and especially don't forget the flop.
