This might be a step too far, but by the unique character of this work I would ask for a translation either link to one that was made...
#1【東方】諏訪旅行１日目 Travel Touhou "Mountain of Faith" day 1 to 4....
Anyway.. enjoy the video while you at it...
On another note.. I think I might something more canon even... there's a very obscure and hidden page At wiki's which I found randomly. http://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Miscellaneous_illustrations_by_ZUN this is that page.. There seem to be some... interesting information there... from the past.
So the remainder of the stuff on the wiki, right?
I could get around to that after some of my current stuff, but video, might take longer due to personal time issues and the fact that it needs to go through Furi if he's okay with it.
... Well, which ever way, I'll be posting a .docx of the stuff, so if you'can't wait for a translated vid, you can always peek on that,
======================================================================================
I've been getting rather curious as to some the secondary stuff that's been added to Gengetsu's dictionary page on pixiv (Section 3). Specifically, I'm wondering about the middle two (I know that the first one's a relationship with Yuuka and the last one's a maid fetish). Apparently, both mention you-know-what (They call it something like Insanity or Madness) and respectively deal with strength and malicious intent.
The madness they're talking about is referring to how she throws crazy bullets at you under certain conditions.
Like, say some of Hibachi's famous bullets.
I know there must be some shmup terminology that goes with this, so somebody suggest me a better term if they know.
...for now I'll just note it as 'crazy'
Also, note that most of this section talks about Fanon, and only a bit is canonical
Anyhow, the middle two mainly says
'Strongest' Baddest
Gengetsu is often characterized to be one of the strongest characters in Touhou.
This is mainly thought to be, because: even the maker, ZUN -as mentioned previously- said that she was the and 'evil'-est, the bullets that she shoots when she goes 'crazy' is of a difficulty seen in no other Touhou bullet, and perhaps because her race -a devil- is one of the strongest races in the Touhou world.
It could also be because of the relationship she has with Yuka -as mentioned above- ,who's also depicted to be one of the strongest characters, pushing this sort of image forward. Furthermore, the power balance between the two often depends on the artist.
*Note: The section's title 'Strong'-est is a pun with 'evil'-est which both have the pronunciation "Saikyou"... as known by our ⑨
A demonic/inhumane personality
In the Touhou world where there aren't really 'bad characters' Gengetsu is a rare character that often gets depicted as having an malicious intent to terrify others.
She is also sometimes depicted as a demonic character who disobeys the Spell Card rules and uses bullets to destroy others. This could be because she uses bullets -as mentioned previously- that are impossible to evade by normal means.
(In the PC98 series, there is no Spell Card rule, many characters use Danmaku that are avoidable. Although there are some bullets as Mima's star bullets on Lunatic, and Yuuka's final Danmaku on Lunatic that are 'theoretically' evadable.)
But, since she only shoots 'crazy' bullets when you grind too many points or you purposely stop attacking, it can also be assumed that the player character stopped obeying the rules of Danmaku when the player started to do this.
Other than the reasons mentioned already, some other reasons that make her a prone target to being a bad character in the fanon world, is also thought to be because -as a PC98 character- there are no specific details about her characteristic, and she doesn't have a specifically strong fanon meme, and her race as a 'devil' is the onyl thing that actually characterizes her.
In the original conversation in the game, there is nothing to hint at any sort of evil or demonic nature.
Rather that, her sister, Mugetsu sounds much eviler....
Well in the first place, Reimu and the gang who intrude in only to bring havoc to some other character's world is a lot (ry
=====================================================================
So what does it actually say in the credits, the song title (in Japanese/in English)?
Music: "Kaze no Tami" (風の民 People of the wind)
