"While I was remembering these unnecessary things, I saw my destination. Close [chika] by the Forest [mori] of Magic, and the rainy spell [rin] joining the drizzly rain [kirisame] and the forest. Yes, this is a shop with an owner that would make such an obvious name. The incense [kou] relates to gods, basically meaning shrine. Geez, this guy really likes this stuff. ?Kourindou?. This old and small shop... The Kirisame, humans... this forest of youkai... and then the shrine at the center of their borders. In other words, is this place supposed to be the heart of Gensokyo?"
Marisa's Family name, Kirisame (霧雨) means "drizzly rain".
Rinnosuke's family name, Morichika (森近), literally means "close by the forest".
As for Kourindou (香霖堂) it means "Hall of the Incensed (or perfumed) Rain (or rainy spell)".
The kanji for rainy spell (霖, the same 'rin' from 'Rinnosuke') looks like it's a mix from forest (森) and rain (雨). (It probably is.) (Thanks Nietz!!))
when i saw this,my mind blew away.
for me, HE is the true cauldron of surprises. is one of the more misterious characters in Touhou, because we, even today, don?t know who kind of half youkai is him, or his motivations, or why he have that kind of knowledge,beign "only" a curious half youkai shopkeeper who can fabric things like the mini hakkero.he is so...hermetic, like a mason or something like that. XD
