Title: Who do you align with? Character vs Character!
Post by: Spidere on January 04, 2010, 11:49:46 PM
This is a thread where you can voice your opinion on two related characters. i.e. Reisen vs tewi. Who do you like better? Thats your alignment. Contribute character vs as you please. Make the two relevant however. These aren't necessarily rivalry matches by the way.

> Reimu v.s Marisa
> Kaguya v.s Mokou
> Tewi v.s Reisen
> Ran v.s Chen
> Remilia v.s Flandre
> Kanako v.s Suwako

My opinion:

Reimu, Kaguya, Tewi, Chen, Remilia, Suwako.

Please contribute.

Marisa, Mokou, Reisen, Chen, Flandre, Suwako.

I don't know why you find Kaguya so awesome... Nonetheless, let's throw another match or two into the mix. They're not really opposites, per se, but you put in Ran v Chen and Remi v Flan, and they aren't really opposites either...

Nazrin v.s Shou
Koishi v.s Satori

I choose Nazrin and Koishi.

Post by: Spidere on January 04, 2010, 11:57:29 PM
I believe i worded the first post wrong, give me a moment.

Fix'd.

Also I like Kaguya because she's quite funny. I only really dislike her dependence, but inaba of the moon didn't have that much.

Nazrin v.s Shou
Koishi v.s Satori

I choose Nazrin and Koishi.

Undecided on first because Nazrin is probably planning to have mice attack humans instead of humans attacking mice...which is scary, and Shou being a tiger Youkai and well...yeah RUN AWAAAY.

I pick Satori though. Even if she can read minds and reveal them(especially having an AWESOME theme!), she is so AWESUM!

> Reimu v.s Marisa
> Kaguya v.s Mokou
> Tewi v.s Reisen
> Ran v.s Chen
> Remilia v.s Flandre
> Kanako v.s Suwako

Marisa - Virtue of being the funnier route, And nothing beats blowing shit up with lasers.
Mokou - What the hell can I say, I really hate Lunarians in most cases.
Reisen - Reisen being pretty much the exception, Liars are rarely the best characters at that.
Chen - CHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!
Flandre - U.N Owen is by far one of my more memorable tunes, and Flandre's power is roughly 'Blow shit up better'. Victory is kinda clear here.
Suwako - Sorry 'nako, You've got pretty cool back cannons, But Suwako is just funnier.

Nazrin v.s Shou
Koishi v.s Satori

Shou - Don't really see much in Nazrin, to be honest.
Satori - Because Irony. \o/

Mugetu vs. Gengetu
Konngara vs. Sariel (by virtue of being the final bosses of HRtP)
Mima vs. Shinki (the two most popular PC-98 characters)
Yumemi vs. Shikieiki (Phantasmagoria final bosses)
Yuyuko vs. Yukari
Alice vs. Yuka (both returned to Windows)
Rika vs. Rikako (SCIENCE~)
Maribel vs. Renko

Gengetu - She puts her sister in a dress and has that attack. I think I like her style.
Sariel - Wings! \o/
Mima - I blame Ruro. Also, gave us Marisa.
Eiki - While I have a BIT of aminosity to the Yama, She has better music, attacks, and style. Doesn't beat up her subordinate either.
Yukari - Cute ghost Yuyuko may be, Yukari at least doesn't try and KILL EVERYONE. Unless I'm writing her.
Alice - Yuka is a tough competitor, but SWR kinda heavily won it for Alice.
Rikako - Lab coat! \o/
Renkibel - The superior choice.

Koishi vs Flandre
Satori vs Remilia
Youmu vs Sakuya
Nitori vs Rika
Alice vs Patchouli
Mima vs Rin Satsuki

Flandre - Koishi's got nothing on blow shit up gal.
Remilia - Charisma.
Sakuya - Both are cool, especially SWR youmu's touches, but really, few things beat a time-stopping maid.
Nitori - Kappa power!
Patchouli - Alice is awesome, but Patchy holds a special place in the cockles of my heart.
Mima - Satsuki who?

Orin vs. Okuu
Eirin vs. Kaguya
Reimu vs. Sanae
Wriggle vs. Rumia
Lunasa vs. Merlin vs. Lyrica

Okuu - Exploding Ravens! Yayyyy!
Kaguya - Been being a jerk for a shorter time.
Reimu - THE ORIGINAL.
Wriggle - She just seems to be messing around compared to well, Outright vicious like Rumia.
Lyrica - Because shes the only pun I get.

Reimu - I hate everything about Marisa.
Kaguya - If only because I hate Mokou's design.
Tewi - Don't like Reisen.
Ran - Not a cat person (NAC is excluded from this notion because he's fucktons of awesome).
Neither Remilia or Flandre - I honestly don't care for either of them; Remilia's a bitch and Flandre's U.N. Owen whatever is so over used it makes me want to tear someone's head off.
Suwako - Kaknockers are nice, but I like frogs, so whatever.

--

Nazrin - Shou's forgettable
Satori - Koishi's forgettable

--

Gengetu - Both are alright, but I prefer the leader of the two
Sariel - Konngara's just as good, but I like the EoE vibes Sariel gives off
Shinki - Do I really have to explain?
Yumemi - Don't care about Shiki
Yuyuko - Gap troll can go fuck herself
Yuka - I lean more toward Yuka than Alice
Rikako - I had my Rika phase, and now it's gone. 'Sides, Rikako's been my favorite before the tank girl
Can I say neither for 'Renko vs. Maribel'?

Neither Koishi or Flandre - I don't like neither of them. At all.
Satori - Don't like her that much, but I prefer her over Remilia anyday.
Neither Youmu or Sakuya - Don't care about the half-ghost, and I prefer the original perfect maid
(Yumeko)
tyvm
Nitori - Same as Rikako, Nitori's been my favorite long before Rika.
Patchouli - I'unno, I feel alot more for Patch I guess, even though I honestly don't care for neither of them.
Neither - Just because

--

Orin - Okuu can go get West Nile somewhere.
Kaguya -  Her in game cut in, is fuck ugly, fan art of her is good but that image will forever make me dislike Eirin
Both -  Fuck choosing
Rumia - All the shit people brand Wriggle with has earned her my hatred. GJ
Lunasa -  DAT ASS

--

Both - Fuck choosing
Yamame - Spider loli~

Post by: Tsym on January 05, 2010, 01:40:57 AM
Reimu - Such a varied character.
Mokou - A much better personality.
Reisen - Tewi sucks.
Chen - For obvious reasons.
Remilia - Charisma, power to control fate, despite how doujins make her out to be a childish character, I'm sticking with ZUN's original presentation.
Suwako - Character win, both in terms of cuteness and in terms of epicness.

Nazrin - What a tiny, tiny, clever commander.  Plus I like the role reversal.
Koishi - The subconscious rules over the mind.  Plus she's just that awesome.

Gengetu - Just because.
Sariel - More memorable than Konngara.
Shinki - The original.  For everything.
Shikieiki - Enma.  Auto win.
Yuyuko - Hard choice.  I love them both so...  I'll go with Yuyuko though.  Her background story is just fascinating, tragic, and ironic.
Yuka - I just love her personality.
Rika - She fights from a freaking tank and from Evil Eye Sigma.  Come on.
Maribel - She's that much more mysterious.

Koishi - Power to manipulate the subconscious, plus her personality is much better.
Remilia - See earlier comments
Sakuya - Time stopping maid that's immortal?  Win.
Nitori - Always makes me laugh.
Patchouli - I just love Patchy.  Plus her flat eyes look is so...  <3
Mima - Dude.  That Rin got cut.  Obvious choice.

Orin - Tadaaaaa!  Plus she's much nicer than Okuu.
Eirin - Smart, beautiful, sigh...
Reimu - The original, the best, the one who learned to control her powers.
Rumia - I want to know the secret behind that ribbon...
Lunasa - Dark clothes are best.

Hong Meiling - Come on...  No contest.
Yamame - Better than Hina.

Koishi - See above at all my other comments about loving Koishi ^_^

The only ones that actually matter.
Title: Re: Who do you align with? Character vs Character!
Post by: Moerin on January 05, 2010, 02:14:35 AM
Mima - Dude.  That Rin got cut.  Obvious choice.
(http://i50.tinypic.com/vinqrb.jpg)

Ahem... Only going to do the ones in the first post for now because I wanna sleep soon, but here goes...

Reimu vs Marisa - Marisa.  I personally think Marisa makes the better protaganist.  Why?  Because she actually has to work for her powers, rather than having them handed to her on a silver platter.  And she works hard.  Reimu, on the other hand, is notoriously lazy.  So yeah, the Gunbuster fanboy in me has to say that HARD WORK AND GUTS triumphs here.

Kaguya vs Mokou - Kaguya.  Inaba has shown to me that Kaguya is pretty quirky, funny and somewhat ditzy.  IN, on the other hand, shows us how she can be when she's serious, and I'm a pretty big fan of characters that can be completely different people when they get serious.  Also her danmaku is very, very pretty~

Tewi vs Reisen - Reisen.  Sex appeal.  Ahem.  Moving on...

Ran vs Chen - Hmmm... Difficult, but... I'm going with Ran.  I don't know why, but I just prefer her.

Remilia vs Flandre - Flandre.  But then again, this shouldn't come as a surprise to a lot of people, as my loathing for the elder Scarlet sister is pretty well known.  Ahem. 
Kurumi's a better vampire than either of them, though~ ^_^

Kanako vs Suwako - Suwako.  I do like Kanako, but... Suwako's sense of humour wins out everytime.  I mean, you'd have to be able to poke fun at yourself if you named one of your attacks "Froggy Braves the Elements", wouldn't you? (By the way, that's tied with Curse of the Heavens "Apollo 13" as my favourite spellcard name).

...I'll probably do the rest tomorrow, but here's two for me to throw into the ring...

Yorihime vs Toyohime
Evil Eye Sigma vs Hisou Tensoku

Post by: theshirn on January 05, 2010, 02:45:57 AM
Reimu v.s Marisa - Reimu is fairly bland (DIE YOUKAI DIE RANDOM STRANGER DIE)
Kaguya v.s Mokou - Evil, manipulative jackass or awesome, badass, helpful phoenix?
Tewi v.s Reisen - Tewi is a jerk and needs to give my socks back.
Ran v.s Chen - CHEEEEEEN is overrated and Ran's hat is awesome
Remilia v.s Flandre - One word.  Flansocks.
Kanako v.s Suwako - Kanako is filed away with Kaguya, while Suwako is fun times.  Also Suwako and Cirno hilarity.
Nazrin v.s Shou - Don't really care for either, but Nazrin is pretty annoying.
Koishi v.s Satori - I blame Urushi.
Mugetu vs. Gengetu - RAPE TIME!
Konngara vs. Sariel (by virtue of being the final bosses of HRtP) - Better theme.
Mima vs. Shinki (the two most popular PC-98 characters) - Mima is horrendously overrated, but still great.  Still, though, Shinki :wub:
Yumemi vs. Shikieiki (Phantasmagoria final bosses) - SCIENCE!  And Strawberries!
Yuyuko vs. Yukari - I blame Colonel AKI for this one.
Alice vs. Yuka (both returned to Windows) - Alice seriously needs to get lost, and Yuka needs to be playable again for awesomeness and rampant thrashing.
Rika vs. Rikako (SCIENCE~) - :teach:
Maribel vs. Renko - Solely based on hat preference, I don't give a damn about either.
Koishi vs Flandre - DAMN you, Urushi.
Satori vs Remilia - Don't really care for either, but Satori needs huggles more.
Youmu vs Sakuya - ZA WARUDO.
Nitori vs Rika - Kappapapapapa~
Alice vs Patchouli - Even with her condition she'd thrash Alice any day of the week.
Mima vs Rin Satsuki - Only one is real anyway.
Orin vs. Okuu - Orin is overrated as all hellfire and Utsuho is awesome.
Eirin vs. Kaguya - I don't like either, but Eirin is less guilty of Kaguya Syndrome.
Reimu vs. Sanae - Sanae is an even bigger jerk than Reimu, and Reimu's had 11 games as the main character to work on that.
Wriggle vs. Rumia - Is that so~
Lunasa vs. Merlin vs. Lyrica - For some reason, the levelheaded Lunasa is my favorite of the three.
Hong Meirin vs Elly - Never a big fan of China.  And Elly has a Scythe, with a capital S.
Hina vs Yamame - Sure, Yamame can spin a web, but Hina can spin EVERYTHING!

Reimu < Marisa (~ZE)
Kaguya > Mokou (Mokou is too badass for me)
Tewi > Reisen  (I hate Reisen. Her design is boring and shes portrayed as such a servant.)
Ran < Chen (CHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN)
Remilia > Flandre (Charisma)
Kanako < Suwako (Frogs are generally more cuddly than snakes.)
Nazrin > Shou (Nazrin is strong much like communism)
Koishi < Satori (Sry Gpop. Satori is more lolitasic)
Mugetsu < Gengetsu (wings win over maid)
Konngara < Sariel (This is kind of mute)
Mima > Shinki (Mima)
Yumemi < Shikieiki (JUSTICE! Justice is sexy)
Yuyuko > Yukari (Spooky ghosty is so moe/sexy)
Alice < Yuka (Yuka will beat the crap out of you, that's hot)
Rika < Rikako (SCIENCE!)
Maribel < Renko (Renko wears the pants in this relationship)
Koishi > Flandre (I have a love/hate thing with flan)
Satori < Remilia (Charisma)
Youmu > Sakuya (Swords are bigger than knives)
Nitori > Rika (Rika is a terrible character)
Alice < Patchouli (Patchouli is like my favorite so she pretty much KOs everyone)
Mima > Rin Satsuki (Sry Rin)
Orin > Okuu (Cats > Crows)
Eirin < Kaguya (Being NEET is so much better)
Reimu < Sanae (Bewbs)
Wriggle > Rumia (Wriggle wriggles)
Lunasa > Merlin < Lyrica ( ξ・∀・)* )
Hong Meirin = Elly (You're killing me)
Hina = Yamame (Nope both are to awesome to compare)
Yorihime = Toyohime (Both of you suck. Eirin is the better)
Evil Eye Sigma < Hisou Tensoku (giant robots in touhou are kind of stupid)

Post by: shadowbringer on January 05, 2010, 12:27:03 PM
> Reimu v.s Marisa (default shot type, etc.)
> Kaguya v.s Mokou (better patterns)
> Tewi v.s Reisen (the outcome is the same, no matter what Reisen you were referring to, just Udonge is my least favorite character, besides Koishi)
> Ran v.s Chen (nine-tailed foxes are special, yet Chen's entire stage and both of its bgms are good)
> Remilia v.s Flandre (she's funny when she behaves childishly. Difficult match, because Flandre could also be seen as Surt's moefication)
> Kanako v.s Suwako (even though SanaeB is the Touhou version of Raizing's Miyamoto, I like Kanako's personality and initiative)

> Nazrin v.s Shou (personality, not quite flawless Bishamonten, etc.)
> Koishi v.s Satori (the difference is as clear as comparing Koipop with FallenAngelVeronica, isn't it?)

> Mugetu vs. Gengetu (both have their merits, Mugetu being fought right before Gengetu -- something you'd see in Shuusou Gyoku's Extra Stage --, Gengetu Rape Time, etc., but the one with the most patterns and screentime will win today)
> Konngara vs. Sariel (difficult match, I like the ambience of both boss fights, as well as fighting them, I like scoring through the Konngara route, but Sariel's route and boss fight feels more desolate, so I'll go with Sariel)
> Mima vs. Shinki (another difficult match, besides what most Touhou fans like about Shinki, she's possibly inspired by Ms. Garra from ESP Ra.De, which is a nice plus.. but Mima is my favorite Touhou character.)
> Yumemi vs. Shikieiki (though Sikieiki's personality is very respectable, having earned her position as a Yama, and trying to help people so that she doesn't have to tell them to Go To Hell[1], Yumemi is a very funny character, poor Yumemi gets rejected even when she succeeds :p)
> Yuyuko vs. Yukari (another difficult choice, since both are wise characters, in the games and in the official works, but I'll pick Yukari, because she's more willing to help Reimu, should she need her advice or help, and easier to reach, than Yuyuko. Yukari also has a sort of representative voice for the youkai, besides getting in touch with other powerful youkai, so her role is important)
> Alice vs. Yuka (can't judge from gameplay alone, since Yuka isn't good in MS, but is powerful in PoFV -- and Kioh Gyoku --, and Alice alone isn't good in IN, but I like her shot type in SA, and I like playing as her in IaMP. Both have good stages/bgms in PC-98 and Windows, save for PoFV and the fighting games. Both are likable, from the official works, as well. I'll choose Yuka, because she's possibly a more twisted version of a "classical" character, the Sleeping Beauty, and she has the flower-theme to herself and her attachment to nature.)
> Rika vs. Rikako (Rikako looks more like a scientist than Rika does, and can bring some advances in her field -- quoting Dr. Octavius, from the Spider Man II movie, "Intelligence is not a privilege, it's a gift, to be used for the good of mankind womankind") --, but I like Rika's attitude, and how she's able to bring us some troublesome machines (some of EES' patterns remind me of Garegga's Black Heart, even though it's due to one of the simplest patterns, that's a good thing)
> Maribel vs. Renko (I must read the works where they appear, for now I'll choose Maribel, since she's more inclined to believe in magic, even in the outside world)

> Koishi vs canon Flandre
> Satori vs Remilia (as much as Remilia is likable in the official works -- and has nice patterns in IaMP's Story Mode --, Satori is a nice person in game, in contrast to people fearing her mind-reading abilities)
> Youmu vs Sakuya (both have nice playstyles in the shmups and fighting games, both are funny to fight against, except in the fighting games, where Youmu is more fun, I'll choose Youmu because Sakuya looked like a replacement for Yumeko)
> Nitori vs Rika (difficult choice, but Nitori is a friendly representative of the Kappa, even though she's not as willing to put a fight with others as Rika is, and though not in the mood of bringing mechanical vehicles)
> Alice vs Patchouli (can't choose from gameplay, I'll choose Patchy because she's wiser. This anemic magician has written lots and lots of magical books, which contain her own knowledge and can't be read/used by those who aren't as magically powerful as the books she writes)
> Mima vs Rin Satsuki (favorite character, as stated before, etc.)


[1] someday I'll.. redraw a King of Fighters parody, where she perform Heidern's super on Orin

> Reimu v.s Marisa - Tough call, but I'd say Reimu. Just like her design and abilities better. Marisa can be too much of a troll some times, too.
> Kaguya v.s Mokou - Mokou, all the way. Love her hair and design, and is one of the biggest badasses in the series. Kaguya is a manipulative, hateful, useless, little whore who can go get eaten by a sarlacc.
> Tewi v.s Reisen - Reisen. Her sprites and animations in the fighting games are to adorable for words. Tewi deserves a Unzan fist in the face
> Ran v.s Chen - Ran. Chen is the epitome of cuteness, yes, but I just like Ran more. Her official art also looks very cute and cuddly IMO. Her tails are the fluffiest things in the world, and she's a lovable, caring person. I really dislike the fact not many people don't realize her power and intelligence and only notice her for her degrading meme. Her profile states she's one of the strongest youkai, is a mathematical genius and she's even an extra boss, yet she's always overshadowed by Yukari :'(
> Remilia v.s Flandre - Another tough match, but I'd say Remilia. Like her design better, and she's so cute and hilarious when she has a charisma break. She's also a huge badass when she's serious. Love Flan's wings though...
> Kanako v.s Suwako - Suwako. Don't really like Kanako's design, and Suwako is so gosh darn MOE in the fighting games.

> Nazrin v.s Shou - Nazrin. Don't really care for either of them, but Nazrin earns points for her awesome theme.
> Koishi v.s Satori - Koishi. Satori isn't very remarkable to me, and Koishi just has a more lovable personality.

> Mugetu vs. Gengetu - Gengetsu, for having cooler patterns (judgement rays followed by mini master spark? FUCK YEAH!)
> Konngara vs. Sariel - Sariel, because I like her design more and Konngara looks wierd IMO.
> Mima vs. Shinki - Private Shinkitard reporting for duty, sir :V
> Yumemi vs. Shikieiki - Shikieiki, just because she has the most badass hat in existence.
> Yuyuko vs. Yukari - Yukari. I also like Yuyuko, being beautiful and one of the most hilarious characters, but Yukari is just more important to the plot. Love, love, LOVE Yukari's design too (especially her PCB one), and has the best ability of all characters. I tend to like the strongest character in a game or story. She also allows for wacky plots and circumstances, and she's also mysterious and seductive. She also has more diverse spellcards. Yuyuko's attacks and spellcards are too bland, all just being the same butterfly/ghost storm in slightly different patterns.
> Alice vs. Yuka - Yuka. I think Alice is pretty boring actually, having a bland design and not very spectacular spellcards or attacks (the only cool one is Goliath Doll). Yuka meanwhile is crazy awesome. She's insane and extremely destructive, but takes it even further than Flandre! And though clearly mad, she still seems more intelligent and calculated than most other psycho's in the series. Her classic pyjama design in the PC-98 games is also too moe for words. She also proves you don't need a hax ability to be powerful, being more than a match for local gamebreakers Suika, Yukari and Reimu, while only being able to manipulate flowers! And you gotta give credit to the one who invented the Master Spark.
> Rika vs. Rikako - Rika, only cuz she breaks the habit of magical girl fighting by showing up in a freaking tank.
> Maribel vs. Renko - Maribel. She's just cuter.

> Koishi vs canon Flandre - Flandre. She's the closest thing to a Marx personification, for crying out loud!
> Satori vs Remilia - Remilia. Again, I think Satori isn't very special.
> Youmu vs Sakuya - Sakuya. Love her relationship with Remi, and I can't get enough of her mad slashing attack spellcards in the fighting games (her half playful, half psychotic look in her face when she's fury slashing the enemy at impossible speeds with red beams shooting across the screen is the cherry on top of the deadly cake). Youmu doesn't have much spectacular spellcards in the fighting games, but her shmup spellcards are just too awesome. But even then, I prefer Sakuya (Sakuya's also funnier).
> Nitori vs Rika - Nitori, no contest. ADORE her design and her song remixes by IOSYS make me love her even more.
> Alice vs Patchouli - Patchy, hands down. She has the cutest design of all, and everything about her is adorable! I just wanna give her a hug! And her elemental powers are awesome. Like I said earlier, Alice is just boring.
> Mima vs Rin Satsuki - Mima, ofcourse. I mean, Rin hardly exists, and we don't even know what her abilities are! (I don't like how KimikoMuffin uber buffed her to the freaking creator of boundary manipulation). Mima meanwhile has the best design ever, and she's a lovable little villain.

Kaguya, Reisen, Ran, Remilia, Kanako.

Kaguya is a proto-feminist, Reisen's power is inducing madness, I don't care about Ran but Chen annoys me, Remilia is pure elegant bitch, and Kanako is a diety who wants humans and youkai alike to party.

I cannot and will not choose between Reimu and Marisa. They are a classic inseparable dichotomy.

Edit: Will have to get back to you on the others.

Yumemi vs. Shikieiki (Phantasmagoria final bosses)

My mind is breaking. How could you? ;_;
