I've now taken a look at the spoiler. This is a one-off story, unlikely to have anything to do with Touhou 14.5.

It is a very serious one, however.

Out of curiosity, what does the text reads in the third image?

I think if it's not this character, at least the silhouetted character probably has something to do with him; probably his sister, or another person- same species. Their outfit seem to similar to be a coincidence.
This character is too tall for that silhouette anyway.

Maybe the silhouette is Kosozu using the guy's cape for some reason or another.

I've seen the raws. Seemed like the standard "old evil youkai awakens, causes mayhem, then Reimu curbstomps."

Though since cuc said it's very serious, I'm still rather intrigued.

Doki-Doki · « **Reply #755 on:** February 26, 2015, 01:02:13 PM »

Looking forward to a translation, though I do have a lurking suspicion the youkai-wizard guy probably will have something to do with the silhouette, though him actually BEING the silhouette seems unlikely for me. Also considering the chapter name was "An Ancient Evil Awakens" it might have something to do with ULiL's incident, or at least that's what I'm guessing. Can't read japanese so I'm just working from what I see visually. Inb4thesilhouetteisKosuzu

TheTeff007 · « **Reply #756 on:** February 26, 2015, 05:20:00 PM »

I'm bound to believe that Kosuzu will appear in the game as fighter, mainly because

Spoiler:

although it seems unlikely, but it could happen.

I think it'll be coming in May's Reitatsei, probably. Might get a demo in April though.

There is, but it's only early version of the game. Next one will be updated and will better show the full game.

Merraz · « **Reply #761 on:** March 04, 2015, 08:59:38 PM »

Oh welp, At this rate we'll end up waiting for a third demo and DLC for all the characters in the final version lol

I don't like demos, Final version always ends being totally different to the demos ones!

Also, I haven't been reading the mangas lately, but did Shinmyoumaru already recovered her size? I've heard that she will be in this one

Tiamat · « **Reply #762 on:** March 04, 2015, 09:11:05 PM »

She's small now, but IIRC, it's stated somewhere that she's "waiting for the mallet's power to return", which is presumably a convenient excuse for her to grow again whenever ZUN wants her in a game (like with DDC). My memory could be off.

Dream Wanderer · « **Reply #763 on:** March 04, 2015, 10:08:24 PM »

If Hanako becomes a playable character like the datamined character list may suggest, I wonder what her backstory is going to be? If she does, I could see her maybe being connected to an old, abandoned school that falls into Gensokyo from the outside world. (Similar to what was shown on the promotional poster for the game) If that's the case, a darkly lit classroom/hallway/bathroom could serve as her associated stage's location, and it makes me wonder what impact it's appearance could have on the story.

Wow... an old abandoned school.... that sounds very creepy

Marron · « **Reply #765 on:** March 05, 2015, 12:20:09 AM »

Oh yeah, an abandoned school, with Maribel and Renko exploring it while you fight hehe. :toot: (Oh, btw, Maribel is able to go to Gensokyo more freely now

)

Abraham Lincoln · « **Reply #766 on:** March 05, 2015, 12:04:27 PM »

I'd like to see the final boss have a connection with the Illuminati. It would fit in well with the whole theme of urban legends.

~~A 2hu Beethoven would be great too~~

Impossible Spell Card shows her with the same size she had in Double Dealing Character, so I'd assume yes.

Ah. We can't be sure of whether "Hanako"'ll be the name of the actual character or not. Besides, it'd seem pretty suspicious if Marisa somehow use her Hanako related occult LW against Hanako. But if it is, then either we get a character that'll be very vulgar in the fanworks or the actual urban legend Hanako with the usual ZUN twist.

An old school getting in Gensokyo sounds pretty likely, that and Marisa's sudden interest in school related urban legends ! ... If it happens to be like that, I hope her story mode won't be something like doing a test of courage in the abandonned school, that would be too simple :V

Indeed, because of Marisa's last word, "Hanako" just seems like a nickname for the character, who knows, it might not even be the name of the main antagonist! PleasebanAkaManto-relatedvillainplease.

Lol I've never even played dragon quest. I think that says less about me and more about his character design.

You almost had me there you...! On that note, reminds me of a picture someone drew on tumblr of how she thought the silhouette would look like. The design's based off the Aka Manto urban legend, I'd say it's a pretty neat interpretation of it.

Suspicious person · « **Reply #778 on:** March 10, 2015, 08:51:14 PM »

... You know what ? If she actually throws her cape off,a lot of speculation'll get thrown along wih it ... (unlikely, but that would be fun)
