MSN-02 Zeong:
Man, Kimiko, I think we're at opposite ends of this even if we both like UD's work.

The bouts of brutal violence juxtapose with the themes of love in such a way that I find them as appealing as they are striking. Guess it's just the part of me that believes in the school of tough love. I think we can both agree that the bitterness behind the violence certainly adds something visceral to the story though. Spoiler: What's that, Chen? I've gotten so effin' fed up with this world that I'd even try to hurt YOU?
Also, having Spoiler: the Extra/Phantasm Boss being the cause behind everything makes it much smoother to integrate them into the story than it is to just make them an awkward sidequest at the end. Not that other fanfics don't succeed in making it not-awkward.

I know you probably aren't turned off by UD's personality changes or otherwise you wouldn't be posting in here, but since you mentioned it, I feel like replying to it anyway: that seems incredibly unfair to me! Considering how little the characters' personalities are filled in the games, and how the majority of each individual Touhou character's... erm... character tends to be defined by the fandom surrounding it, you'd think it would be treated more like a breath of fresh air after a lot of the same thing over and over. But to each his own, eh?

TL;DR - I rant too much about relatively unimportant stuff. Take it easy.
AJC:

Were your Mystic Eyes of Subtext Perception turned off that long?
