He just likes giving her unconventional shot types, that's all. If he hated Marisa would she have Master Spark and be in every touhou game but two?

This.

Marisa/Patchouli was one of the most fun and unique shot types in a Touhou game so far.  You could play SA with completely different strategies than you normally would.  I greatly enjoyed that.

As for IN, the Malice Cannon was great... if tricky to use on the later bosses, but it definitely made Marisa/Alice the strongest team in terms of sheer damage output.

Trend seems to be that Reimu gets the *ahem* Easy Mode shot types while Marisa gets the shots that need a bit more skill (or which are bugged). That's been pretty consistent over the games.

If you love Marisa less because she was given weaker shot types that means you are not hardcore in love for a fictional video game character or in skill.

It's not that I love Marisa less, rather it's the sadness of not seeing her shine as bright as she used to

deliberate trolling.

I'm starting to feel that's what this topic is. You ask a question about peoples opinions, and then when they disagree with your conclusion you just shoot down whatever they say. Jeeze.

Nah, not really. Just some mild fanning of the flames here and there to try and keep the thread going and the different opinions coming. My wish to find out how other players were receiving the "new and improved" Marisa from the latest touhous is legitimate.

My personal opinion is that UFO-Marisa doesn't exist.

Well, she does exist, just her smock doesn't exist. There's no possible way for the smock to have been conceived in touhou canon. Marisa would not take the time to make it, Alice wouldn't have made a Smock with a Giant M on it just to give to Marisa (Whether it's because Alice doesn't like Marisa or because Alice already gave her a Mantle to use during the Winter of SA), and absolutely no one else in the Harem will even take the time or has the patients to sew for somebody else.

Basically, the only way I can imagine Marisa Wearing a Smock like that is some Japanese guy going "Marisa will never wear a Smock like that." and due to Rinnosuke's theory on the outside world's beliefs, the Smock just appeared in her closet.

My theory on the smock is that ZUN drew her with it because he thought it would look cute.

Seriously, you people overanalyze this stuff way too much.

I didn't say that I liked it, though I really don't have an opinion on it either way(Who the hell plays these games for the artwork, seriously).  My point is that ZUN will do what he wants with his games/characters, and no matter how horrible you think his decisions may be, there's not much you can do about it.

Even better, have a go at Moogy. I'd sell Pay-Per-View tickets and get RICH!

Letty is always right too, which makes it somewhat difficult to argue with him/her/it. Haven't met the other two yet but, who knows....

It's a silly user name that I made up a long time ago, considering changing it.

Frankly, I think the characters/teams available for each game are sometimes imbalanced so that you have the option of playing with a weaker character/team if you're a hardcore player. But imo that should NOT be Marisa. She should be hard to play but strong.

Edit: And about her new clothes... They could look wonderful in another character. Read: *another* character.

Who here wants to bet that ZUN has a smock fetish now? I wouldn't be surprised if all the playable characters wear them by TH 16 or something.

Marisa's pretty much always had petticoats (well, starting in EoSD, anyway). The difference is just that this one is ridiculous. Kinda like Marisa herself, come to think of it ...
