Favorite Touhou Character?
Favorite Touhou Character?
Hello everyone, not sure if there's already a topic like this already active but from what I can tell its all been archived so I thought id start friendly conversation here about everyone's favorite Touhou characters C: I'm trying to get into Touhou and so far my most favorite character is Rin Satsuki. I like her design and the fact that she plays a erhu. I wish she was used in more fan games and levels since she's the only cut Touhou character XD I'm glad she's going to get the chance to shine in the fan game Ephemeral Unnatural Balance. :)

Re: Favorite Touhou Character?
do you think the reason the touhou board doesn't exist is due to a secret horikawa agenda! speculate

Re: Favorite Touhou Character?
Hrmrmrmrmrmrm, hard to say.
Possibly a three-way tie between Mokou, Mamizou, and Tenshi.
Somewhat fave Raiko as well. So sad that fandom-wise, she doesn't get a lot of spotlight shining down on her.
Murasa for her boss battle. Her spell cards and the boss music is one of my favorites.
Honorary mention goes to Marisa when voiced by Bowser.
Also, even though she's an OC, I can't help but like the nameless Hakurei Miko. Partially since she looks cool, and mostly due to Osana Reimu and that one comic by Warugaki.
Come to think of it, I'd have an even longer time pondering the thread's question if fanworks are taken into account. Lotsa artists out there, and often their depictions can really make me like a character. It's hard to choose.

Re: Favorite Touhou Character?
When I think about it, Raiko is kinda unlucky in a sense. Among the Windows-era EX bosses, she doesn't get a lot of attention. Like... does this make sense, she's not really connected to anyone of importance, so her presence is weak. Just my theory, since when you think about it:Tobi555 wrote:Yea I wish more characters got the spotlight in fanworks :) That's why I'm super happy that Ephemeral Unnatural Balance is going to star Rin Satsuki
Flandre: sister of Remilia, and a member of the SDM crew.
Ran and Yukari: Chen's master, and Yukari is a friend of Yuyuko, and Yukari is pretty much the head honcho of Gensokyo as a whole.
Mokou: Enemy (or frenemy, or something) of Kaguya, and friends with Keine.
Suwako: Co-god with Kanako (and Sanae) at the Moriya shrine.
Koishi: Sister of Satori, and member of of the Palace of Earth Spirits.
Nue: More or less among the Buddhists, and friend of Mamizou.
Mamizou: Same as Nue.
Hecatia: master of Clownpiece and friend of Junko.
You look at that and you can see that the EX bosses have a strong relation with the other bosses of their respective games, and when you look at Raiko... well, she's more or less a byproduct of the miracle mallet, and right now I don't even remember if she had any direct interaction with Sukuna. She was in Impossible Spell Card, but it really doesn't feel like much. She can be connected to the Tsukumo sisters, but much like Raiko their presence isn't that strong... basically the tsukumogami trio feel like a closed circle that don't get to interact that much with others since they don't know anyone else compared to the other characters, if you look at it that way. Fanon-wise, sometimes they get paired around with the Prisimriver sisters, but not that much. Come to think of it, the Prismrivers are already a musically themed group, making Raiko and the Tsukumos feel even more redundant in some level. Kokoro could be made to interact with them, since she's a fellow tsukomogami - and there's at least one doujinshi where they do interact, but the connection still feels rather weak unless things pick up in canon.
Take Murasa for example. She doesn't get a lot of focus, but by virtue of being among Hijiri's crew she would at least get some extra attention - like a fan-work involving the Buddhists will have her around, and by extension her presence in the community goes up a little, giving her a chance for more attention in the future. Raiko has... well, at the moment, barely anyone so her presence is a lot less definite.
Well, just my random theory. I could very much be wrong, since I'm just basing this on fanworks with stories, and there could be a lot more Raiko-centric works than I thought and they're not just available online.
Anyway, more Raiko would be nice indeed. She needs an artist like a Mitsumoto or Pasteltel to flesh her out to up her presence in fanworks.
Re: Favorite Touhou Character?
So she's kinda like Rin huh? At least she appeared in a game If you know anything about Rin you'll know that shes the only official cut character from Touhou and a Kirin. She was supposed to be in the first Windows era game with Reimu and Marisa as a protagonist and the only remnants of her are her spell cards in the game files. In the fandom she's extremely close to Reimu and Marisa as a result although she's sometimes forgotten by them (Referencing the fact that shes cut) and she loves the erhu. :) We're in the same boat when it comes to the fandom acknowledging these charactersaka Cthulhu wrote:Anyway, more Raiko would be nice indeed.

Re: Favorite Touhou Character?
Alls I know about Rin is that she was cut from EoSD, and I think the only fanwork I saw of her with dialogue was a series of pics by Mefomefo, who seems to have an idea to use her for a story.Tobi555 wrote:So she's kinda like Rin huh?

Re: Favorite Touhou Character?
Mefomefo's art is pretty nice. In particular, his Touhou Project-Mexico is an interesting series of pics. Also, he drew a pretty cool one of Reimu and Marisa fist-bumping.Tobi555 wrote:Oh I see very interesting might have to check that out :)
