Touhou manga stuff

Interesting canon stuff and recommended doujins

[clarste]

Wild and Horned Hermit 47!

In which, shockingly, things happen.

[clarste]

Wild and Horned Hermit 46!

In which we dig a little deeper into the upcoming Hell War, I guess. Also it’s really funny.

[clarste]

Wild and Horned Hermit 45.

In which we see what desperation can do to a mind.

[brodosh]

Grab em by the balls.

[clarste]

Wild and Horned Hermit 44!

Guess who’s back! No, not that one. In which heresy occurs.

I don’t know why I never thought of showing the title page with the announcement post until just now.

Curisosities of Lotus Asia chapter 31

In which it’s still snowing in summer. Incidentally, somehow I never noticed before that Rinnosuke refers to girls as -kun (not Marisa though), which comes across as him trying to assert a kind of professional distance so they’ll leave him alone.

I took a stab at the Strange Creators 4 interview with ZUN about Hidden Star in Four Seasons.

Take everything with a grain of salt since it’s harder to translate this sort of thing.

[clarste]

Strange COW 04 is out, which means it’s that time again!

[clarste]

Visionary Fairies in Shrine 8!

In which I can’t believe Tanned Cirno is dead.

Forbidden Scrollery, Vol. 1

by ZUN

Where else would a girl with the power to translate any tome she sets in her lap reside except a library? Sure, some books may be more dangerous than others, but that’s far from discouragement for a true bibliophile like Kosuzu Motoori!

10 more Touhou canon things that you may or may not know

Since the original post recently got a burst of reblogs, I thought I’d make another one. Here goes!

10.  Remilia and Clownpiece both speaks English.

9. Most of Gensokyo’s youkai rabbits were originally pets that were abandoned.

8. Kappa eat (as in legend) shirikodama, which are balls extracted from the anus containing one’s soul. The gensokyo kappa have made machines to extract them and Nitori even uses them as danmaku. Aya and Hatate both says they smell really bad.  

7. Marisa takes pride in being the second best youkai exterminator

6. Flandre isn’t very good at holding a conversation

5. Shiki Eiki was originally a ksitigarbha statue, before recieving enough faith to be promoted to Yamahood.

4.  Suwako laughs like a frog.

3. Sumireko occasionally hangs out with Mamizou in the outside world.

2. For youkai, the Orion constellation is just Suika.

1. Kasen once killed a baby/would-be dragon and fed it’s liver to her older dragon.

And as a palate cleanser, have a ridiculously cute chapter of Visionary Fairies in Shrine (06).

[clarste]

Forbidden Scrollery 50!

In which… I’m not going to spoil anything, so just read it. It’s the next chapter of Forbidden Scrollery.

[clarste]

Hold onto your hats, because it’s Forbidden Scrollery 49!

Have I ever told you how much I love this comic?

[brodosh]

Apparently the shrine is an hour away (in the snow) from the village.

And is that Tenma’s silhouette, it doesn’t give much away.

[brodosh]

look at clownpiece’s new friends looking after her.

[clarste]

Forbidden Scrollery 47!

This is a good one, and while I don’t want to give anything away, perhaps a gamechanger.
