東方三月精 ~ Visionary Fairies in Shrine. "Gensokyo's Weakest Are Back."
Leon゠Helsing:
And she still has her bike too, nice.
the old guy:
New issue just got translated, and in it:
*SPOILERS* (Too lazy to remember how to do spoiler tag.)
They try playing a prank on Reimu, Marisa, Yuyuko, and Youmu. Clownpiece uses her touch of insanity to make Youmu go crazy, but all that happens is that Youmu threatens to cut things, and then she falls over and goes unconscious, Raymoo, Marisa and Yuyuko just shake it off as Youmu being drunk. And the Fairies are all like patting themselves on the back when NO ONE EVEN GOT HURT, hell not even Youmu had much happened to her, jeez, they sure are shitty pranksters! Whatever happened to scaring youmu with obviously fake ghosts?

I think the idea is that they were too busy running away to look back and see what actually happened, so they just assumed it worked because they successfully hit their target. Also Youmu didn't simply "theaten" to cut, she was actually swinging her sword but everyone else was casually dodging her while eating and chatting because it's Touhou and they're used to that.

I know, i phrased my post badly, but my point still stands, whats the point of an prank if your not even going to to watch it? Stupid Fairies!
Also i wouldn't be surprised if the next chapter is about the Fairies finding out that their prank was a total bust. And so they'll have to reclaim their honor. Or Youmu is still suffering from madness and they have to fix the problem they started. Or they'll get cut into sushi!
Clarste:
Next chapter is in 3 months so probably not. Considering it's a "seasonal" publication, I'd imagine the focus is going to be on Clownpiece reacting to some uniquely summer event. I wouldn't expect any direct follow-ups to anything that happened this chapter.
In general, the Touhou comics are pretty obsessed with the seasons. Like, every other chapter starts with them talking about the weather or festivals or something. They're very grounded in a specific time of year. This tri-monthly fairy comic is going to be like that even moreso.
