Correct me if I am wrong, but Marisa was canonically busy trying to become a full Youkai right? Or am I entirely missing it here. Hmmmm

Oh well, according to this picture, she will become a fine Youkai magician for sure if she does. But growing up though, how many more Touhou girls are actually in the progress of "growing up" in terms of visual and appearance. Because according to ZUN some are quite damn old (Yukari & Tewi). And what would actually become of their personality and appearance?
For example, I wonder if Marisa would stop stealing books and drop her "boyish" speech style. Looking at the picture above, she probably will. Especially being such a fine lady. Though Marisa is just one example. What about the others? Will the girls grow up? Will Reimu stop being a lazy mean shrine maiden? Will Nazrin become less sassy?
-
I thought Marisa don't want to be a full Youkai canonically. Cite your claim please.
And knowing ZUN, they won't grow up at all.
-
Is this based on the pool "Touhou - Visions of the Future"?
Also
knowing ZUN, they won't grow up at all.
Sadly this.
-
Is this picture from ZUN? If not then that is entirely speculation.
As for characters other than Reimu and Marisa I can't think of many off the top of my head that will age. In the cases of Sakuya, Sanae and Youmu they are supposedly mortal but all have dubious lifespans. Satori's age is a big question mark with her and her pet's being the biggest possibility other than the main characters.
As for Nazrin she is over a thousand years old; she was assigned to watch over Shou when Shou was made guardian of Byakuren's old temple.

@ Solais, rough memory from somewhere in PMiSS, god knows where.
@ Erebus, no this not a picture from a pool on danbooru. Acidus have been posting this frequent to tease us. (Adult marisa is hot)
Thread does not necessary have to be 100% canon, as obviously growing up will never occur like Solais said. Feel free to act a little silly.
-
Okay Look at the adult Marisa closely. Imagine her with a different outfit, say southern belle with an I-ching twist. That's right, that picture totally made me think that Yukari is really Marisa from the future. Look what you did Heleopolis, thanks to you I just created Touhou insane fan theory #563.
-
Obviously Sanae will be even hotter, and I'll be her hus-
/me is sealed.
Also, Daiyosei will evolve into the Incarnation of Gale, and will adopt the name "Lunate". (http://img687.imageshack.us/i/9d333dbecffcc3520ddfefa.jpg/)

Oh yeah, I remember that picture. It was a series I think, the artist also created adult versions of Cirno, Rumia, Wriggle and Mystia. Pretty damn cool in anycase, especially Rumia's and Cirno's one.
-
I think Reimu will become a lot calmer and more dutiful with age, and less prone of making wild assumptions. I can easily imagine her as wise and knowledgeable when she becomes adult. A good example would be The End of Maiden's Illusion, where Reimu shows that she has become humble, wise and caring in her lifetime. She even gets the offer of becoming a Celestial once she crosses the Sanzu River. You got to have grown into a wonderful person if that is the case.

-

Or not.
For all we know, Sanae will be one of those girls that doesn't get hotter with age. I know a few that looked "HOLY SHIT, CAN I FUCK YOU" hot and after high school they hit the Fugly Ceiling. Hard.
-
Nah, Sanae is a demi-goddess, she won't age and stays the same. Just as I like it.
-
I actually wonder about girls like Sakuya and Keine who look like they're just before their prime.
(I'd think they're not in their teens any more or almost done their teens.)
Must be a strange feeling when they're around people that don't age or do so very slowly...
Personally, I'd like Reimu to be like she is now.
Even after her death, I can see her haunting her shrine to scare unsuspecting visitors in to "donating" things.
...Or perhaps Reimu is unbound by age too, who knows.
-
Nah, Sanae is a demi-goddess, she won't age and stays the same. Just as I like it.
As I have been educated on in the Yukari = Maribel thread, Sanae being a 'demi-goddess' doesn't guarantee eternal youth. She could use her miracle powers to still look bombshell even when she ages beyond 50, but eventually she would die of age. Don't mourn however, since being a demi-goddess/a living god does guarantee you to turn into a full-fledged god upon death. THEN she will look young and beautiful forever and ever.
-
And Letty. (http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/448101/blue_eyes-blue_hair-boots-hat-highres-ice-letty_wh)
Oh yeah, forgot that one too, though she doesn't look that different. I mean already looking at her potrait, she gives me an impression of being a christmas cake (over 25 years old)
-
In the second footnote here (http://touhou.wikia.com/wiki/Perfect_Memento:_Marisa_Kirisame), it says youkai-Marisa might happen, not that she's trying to make it happen. Though in UFO, the following dialogue in Marisa-A raised the hairs on the back of my neck ...
Marisa:
No, I want to go to Makai.
As a magician.
Murasa:
Magician?
Hm, are you not human?
Marisa:
Well ...
Well, anyway, mind taking me along?
Personally I think Reimu will remain a badass well into her seventies. (Of course, some of you already knew this ...)
Also, Daiyosei will evolve into the Incarnation of Gale, and will adopt the name "Lunate". (http://img687.imageshack.us/i/9d333dbecffcc3520ddfefa.jpg/)
"Lunate Elf" is the name of EoSD's stage 2 theme.
-
I think it was stated somewhere that anyone who messes around with magic is bound to become a youkai eventually. Marisa was trained by a youkai, lives around youkai, and all her non-miko friends are youkai, so I would say the outcome there will be pretty obvious. It's just a question of how long it takes. (I strongly doubt the series will advance far enough chronologically to see it, but yes seeing Marisa hit boobinite tier would really be something.)
Anyway, only the humans are subject to aging, and offhand I think there are like, maybe four pure humans? Reimu, Marisa, Sakuya, and Akyu. Marisa will be the demons sooner or later, Sakuya's origin is still up in the air (though she insists she is a normal human, she should be aging very quickly due to spending so much extra time in a day compared to everyone else, doesn't seem to be the case), and Akyu won't live long enough to see old age anyway.
As for the half-breeds:
Alice - was a human, so she aged from her PC-98 incarnation, but is a youkai now.
Sanae - She's aged normally up til now but her half-god side is presenting itself more and it might stop her from aging.
Rinnosuke - Confirmed to be aging slowly
Keine - Age never stated, but probably going at a rate similar to Rinnosuke (if not slower, she might be very ancient, given her status).
Youmu - Human side seems to be aging normally, but Youki is at least 300 years old, so at the very least her life(death?)span is extended.
Mokou - hurr
So really, the only one that's guaranteed to get significantly older looking is, ironically, Reimu.
-
Though in UFO, the following dialogue in Marisa-A raised the hairs on the back of my neck ...
That got me thinking too.
Personally I think Reimu will remain a badass well into her seventies. (Of course, some of you already knew this ...)
I wonder if she will be like her fanon mother/precedessor... (http://img85.imageshack.us/i/c54cdc8bdfb819b9e40cf9c.jpg/)

I know. But I wonder what it means.

I must be the only one that doesn't like Adult-risa. Can't she put on something a bit less revealing?

Now I'm more confused.

Yeah, I'm actually with you there.
Now I'm more confused.
Simplest solution: ZUN meant something different (lunar? Lunatic in the "stupid = crazy" sense if it was talking about Cirno?), but his English spellchecker didn't see anything wrong with "Lunate."
*checks the wiki*
Or maybe "Lunate Elf" comes from the same translators who gave us "Unthinkable Natural Law."

Marisa will dye her hair green, start wearing blue cloths with starry patterns, and a wizard like cone hat, and start weilding a Crescent moon staff. After she dies she will continue to haunt Gensokoyo to further study magic as a ghost, and she will one day develop a magic to go back in time so that she can teach herself all her most powerful spells.

besides, she will haunt the hakurei shrine and troll everyone.

Yeah...we could do dat...
But then she wouldn't be interesting.
-

Same...she doesn't even look like a witch. I like the witch thing. I don't think the revealing thing is as bad as the total lack of witch hat, poofy skirt, etc. But the revealing clothes in general just don't seem to suit her.
If she really has to wear something revealing. Give her yukari's opera gloves, for the love of god those are awsome.
-

Oh, you!
-
One of Marisa's goals was to make her own Hourai Elixir. So far, she made one, but it was too big for her to consume. (At least according to PCB.)
-
Kisume will return to Higan and join the Celestial Bureaucracy. She may or may not rise as high as her parents did.
-
Wriggle will finally get that operation
-
Aya will land that gig at FOX, and leave Gensokyo with a jolly, "So long, suckers!". And then come back 3 months later when she's fired for having too much integrity.

How can a potion be 'too big to consume'? ??? It's called an elixir. It isn't some kind of Dr.Mario pill the size of your head, right?
-
Could have wound up being several gallons of fluid, and one has to take it in one gulp, perhaps?

I'd so watch FOX News if Aya was on there.

I wonder if Kisume would lose her bucket when she grows up. Think there was some fan-art of her being adult.

I always thought Kisume was the bucket.

Bucketsukumogami?

Expecting Kisume to lose her bucket is like expecting Stephen Hawking to lose his wheelchair.
You should all be ashamed of yourselves.

He will lose his wheelchair when he ascends to a greater lifeform than humans.

And not too long after that, spilled coffee will begin spelling out prophetic messages.
Anyways, Orange will break out of her seal, travel back in time to avoid being sealed again, and gain employment with an upstart vampire as a gate guard.

Am I the only one curious to see what Chen would look like? and Ran's opinion of the maturing XD
-

I see adult Chen taking after her master. She'd become a lot more serious and calculating, maybe even cold, like a real cat. She'd end up being an efficient and loyal servant. Maybe if Ran dies/reincarnates back to a one-tailed fox Chen will become Yukari's shikigami. I also imagine Chen to start wearing fancy china dresses. She'd keep her hat and short hair style though.
-
Nice ideas. I'm also thinking Chen will be called Chen Yakumo at that point ...

So when Yukari grows up... will she be an ultra-hag or something? Considering the fact that she claims herself as 17 that is.

Uh, she doesn't claim this. It's a fan joke/reference.

Aren't nekomatas supposed to only have two tails, no matter how old they get?

I think she'd just stay exactly the same. Yay for gap youth powers :derp:

Ran!Chen
...aaaand now I'm picturing Chen as the next Hakurei Shrine Maiden.
-
Yukari will be getting younger actually.
-

Obviously, a grown up Kisume will wear the bucket on her head.

I'm not sure why "real" cats are considered cold... I've not had a cold cat ever. Sometimes they are shy, but rarely cold.
-

I think it all depends on the owner, if any.
-
Depends on the cat, too. Cats have as wide a variety of personalities as people do.
-
Pet-wise they are cute, cuddly and like attention. Predator-wise they are intelligent, calculated, efficient and more often than not very cruel. My cat is a cute lovable furball when I'm petting her, but once she got her claws on a mouse and tore its torso open and then throw and drag it about just for fun.She didn't even eat it. If you look at it in a certain way, they're pretty cruel and cold. But it is they're nature, so who am I to say what is cruel and cold?

Oh boy, don't pay any attention to how humans treat their potential meals then. Carnivores are generally cold to prey, but that doesn't make them cold to everything else. My cat seems to go after not any ordinary birds, but hatchlings, yet he is the nicest cat I know. Chen, be she cat-like or more human, would be a warm and caring person among those she well, cared about, and a cold and calculating predator among those who she deems threats or food (if she even eats fellow humans and youkai). If not a tad more mature and calm due to age. On the flip side, she could never lose her inner child and end up a bigger troll than Yukari.

You know, I had an idea a while ago that if Yukari ever gets killed in battle (maybe by Yuuka) that she'd have some backup plan to keep existing. One of these plans would be passing on her powers and maybe even her soul to either Reimu or Chen upon death.
Can you imagine a nigh-omnipotent adult Chen on a warpath to get revenge for her master's master? (or maybe even her own master, if Yukari's slayer got Ran too)
-
Reimu will grow up to become the wisest human.
And by that I mean she'll take up timecube.
But in Gensokyo, she'll be right.

I don't think Yukari has much to worry about in that department.

Chen will not grow into a ranalike.
She will grow up to be like this!

She took Ran sama's last words of "grow up big and strong" after she died from blood loss a little too seriously.

Nah, her hit box expands with her brawns, its probably as big as Yuyuko+Fan hit box. :D

Ah but she punches like unzan. Only without the nice, cushiony gaseous nature of his punches.
CHENS FISTS THEY ARE MADE OF STEEEEEEEL!!!

if thats the case, touhou may become impossible to win, and everything would be a stalemate, that or yuyuko would eat everyone and be the ultimate champion XD I wonder how many muscley characters she could eat before her stomach explodes >.>

Don't speak such foolish words. Yuyuko's stomach is an infinite void. All that enters it is lost forever. >:D

When Chen grows up, she gets a shikigami of her own.
Then two rival shikigami chains pop up, and it turns into MariMite.

Maybe ectoplasm digests stuff. And even if her stomach isn't endless, she's a ghost: she can't die twice. And since her body isn't entirely solid she might just stretch out like a balloon. Just saying.

Marisa will grow up to be a roadie for Cheap Trick, and Cheap Trick tribute bands.

That's a really awesome drawing.
I like the child like feel of Touhou but if she kept her childish personality, just a bit older, I think Marisa would be just as endearing with the design on the right.

Okay. Gimme a sec to figure out if it's going to be a series of comics or just a one shot.

Yuyuko's stomach = Impel Down
