Disregarding fanwork (since that's too obvious), who do you think have the most of the Mary Sue trait? I want to ask this question since I saw a comment on Hecatia earlier, that's comparing her to common Mary Sue trope. I found it to be a least bit accurate, and that Hecate herself is also a bit of a Sue herself (a Titan that actually isn't being skull-smashed by Zeus, and who even that frat boy of the god respect, a goddess of the underworld that's actually liked, etc...). Note that I don't considered anyone in Touhou to be a Sue themselve, due to all of the Touhou cast are :1 . Not a show-stealer and 2. Have actual personality, but comparing trope could be fun. |

I don't know if we can really call them Mary Sue, but in the print works, Kasen, Eirin and the Watatsuki sisters are the closest imo. In the games, aside from Reimu i can't think of many. |

Obviously Wakasagihime. Like, her name literally has "Princess" in it. She's totally meant as a self-insert for pre-pubescent girls. Oh yeah, she lives in Misty Lake. You know, that lake near Cirno and the SDM. And we conveniently never saw her ever before. This is all an obvious setup do she can get into wacky hijinks with the popular characters without much effort! She's also strong enough to be the Phantasm boss of DDC. That's basically Yukari level! How can you be any more of a Sue than this? What's that? Fanmade? What a load of bull of an excuse. And finally, she's not even wearing seashell bra like any other proper mermaids! It's like she's telling us she's soooo much better than those mainstream mermaids! She's a graceful lady unlike those slutty bimbos. Name a better argument than this. Protip: You can't. |

Sumireko started out as a blatant one, but she was handled nicely and isn't really sue-ish anymore. As for the biggest Sue? Just Lunar Capital in general. |
