I think ZUN changed his mind about Reimu's apparent age in the process of making HRtP.

Also Remember that To some, HRtP to MS are declare to happen in an alternate dimension by most people who know about it.

So she might as well have been 13 in MS.

Alternate dimension? Interesting theory, but since ZUN mentions EoSD takes place shortly after MS, it's pretty much busted.

Under technical terms, it still could, the two dimensions being almost equal. Lets say that the PC-98 set is Dimension A, and the Windows set is dimension B. MS could have happened in Dimension A, while EoSD happens in Dimension B shortly after. Another theory is that its a Moriya Shrine Conspiracy, even if the template is forbidden.

Also, this is Gensokyo. Logic does not need to follow the rules of Physics we follow in compared to Gensokyo's. Reimu could be 900 in HRtP as a reincarnation, for all we care!

I love how people continue to deny PC-98's connection to Windows, despite all evidence to the contrary and having no reason to do so in the first place. >_>

Anyway, I think this debate's pretty much done, seeing as how we're descending into memes.
nintendonut888: Hey Baity. I beat the high score for Sanae B hard on the score.dat you sent me. X3
Baity: For a moment, I thought you broke 1.1billion. Upon looking at my score.dat, I can assume that you destroyed the score that is my failed (first!) 1cc attempt on my first day of playing. Congratulations.

So, ITT: Is Yukarin really 17 years old?

I think PC98 selves are kinda like pseudo-alternate incarnations, from the "old Gensokyo".

That said, I still think Reimu and Marisa are at least in their 20s, and were about 14 when EoSD started.

Maybe Zun just wanted her to stay around 14 - 16. Maybe her Yin-Yang orbs let her do this?

That's it, it's the orbs. It is believable, though, given the other abilities the orbs give her.  Wouldn't do much for Marisa and everyone else, though.

That is a good point, however...

Marisa could just use Magic.
Sakuya could ZA WAURDO away.
Not sure about Sanae. Maybe Kanako and Suwako are involved?

Well, Sanae is a descendant of Suwako, so i guess that would have to do for her.

Maybe, but I think it's been mentioned before that Marisa is trying to become a youkai magician, but has yet to succeed, so she should still be aging.

Maybe it has something to do with the mushrooms...

The only place that's thick with it is Makai, but it could be said the magic throughout all of Gensokyo is a factor.
