Are there other characters that cannot fly? I assumed, in general, it was just every non-youkai in the human village that couldn't fly. I've been playing through Fantasy Maiden Wars recently where Akyuu can fly but I assumed that was either an oversight (in a game where there are few oversights in my opinion) or for a gameplay/laziness reason. Am I missing an official print work that goes more into the details about flight? Maybe Marisa could teacher da fishe how to fly.

ZUN's comment on her fortune slip: However, unusually for Touhou, she is a character with fairly strong limitations on where she can go. So it is difficult to include her in other works.

Even if she could fly, doing anything human life adjacent would be an effort for her. Think about all the times you stand, sit or walk around during the day. Sure, flight can aid you in that, but look no further than the ISS to see how inconvenient floating around can be. It's just a pain. Her body may react poorly too being stretched, too, as in the picture you posted.

Even with flight, Waka's got it hard.

I felt like in Higurashi also there were some songs that were barely audible while others were insanely loud, and I always wondered whether that was the mod's fault. The Switch version of Umineko has an option to dampen the background track any time a character is talking which helps the balancing a little bit but there are some times where characters will talk over an entire track and kind of ruin the mood.

It's sad because 07th mod is so well developed. The audio balance in it is great, but Umineko languishes. Black Liliana is an amazing song, but I don't want it drowning out every single thing Beatrice says! It just ruins the mood to have to go into the settings and lower or raise the music volume every other scene.

No thanks.
I think that weed, maybe in it's more natural form, taken in moderation, could've been helpful to spiritual enlightenment, but nowadays THC count has been engineered to be obscenely high, which has caused it to become unbalanced, and it lobotomizes your 'supernatural' senses.
It's become another excess end we are better off without it.
>>
>>50875958
Thanks for the constructive criticism anon! we will take it into account for next year's edition. I so want to clarify that I did make social media accounts and did share the very few related art and memes I could find, but that wasn't to automatically translate into artists joining en masse, and I didn't expect that to happen either, as it was basically just me having to balance organising the zine with my very demanding full time job. In all honesty I thought we would get 2-3 submissions at most and I expected the zine to be a total flop, which is why I prepared many sketches myself in case the zine bombed. Thankfully the spirits of Gensokyo blessed us and we received many more submissions than expected.

However, by the time we open up submissions next year, we will try to improve the strategy and get ahead of the algorithms that tend to bury new accounts and projects like these. Another thing we will start preparing will be gathering people in physical spaces such as drawing clubs and anime cons. It's very easy to find weed smoking weirdos irl who would enjoy participating.

As for the submissions themselves, it is true that many came from /jp/ but the other half did come from me promoting the zine in dark forest spaces. For this edition I wanted to find people with unusual artstyles and complete amateurs who didn't feel confident enough to hold a pencil, as their art I find much more interesting than that of professional illustrators. But of course, we did get very professional looking submissions like picrel, which was a pleasing surprise.

Another aspect to take into account: the topic of weed is very controversial, and even here in the first thread some people seemed offended by the idea. If even people in 4chan act repulsed by a weed themed zine, imagine how the reaction would be in namespace. Because of this reason, hitting up Japanese artists was also off-limits. Had it been a different topic I would've built a Japanese language page and submission form to make a truly international zine :( this was also another reason why I aimed for unusual artstyles btw, as people with weird artstyles tend to scoff less at themes like this.

Still, thank you once again. We will return next year with an improved formula o7

First of all I recommend reading the very first article in the zine, but yours is very valid criticism actually and is the reason why I myself don't consume it anymore. Ironically enough though, full decriminalization would fix this issue as it would allow for different strains to be legally and ethically produced.

>First of all I recommend reading the very first article in the zine
It was a pleasant surprise to the historical context of hemp in Japanese culture.
>full decriminalization would fix this issue as it would allow for different strains to be legally and ethically produced.
I'm also in favor of decriminalization and complete de-regulation(since it'll just be rolled up into large industries if it's regulated) of cannabis, since I believe that 'vice laws' can only work on a local level(you and your neighbors and nothing beyond that) , but what worries me is that weed has become a cultural symbol of hedonism/liberal progressivism. For example: it's now strongly associated with Doritos, which are another obscenely-optimized chemical product. On the liberal end, I think high-THC weed might actually be stopping people from getting to the higher-level of consciousness and they're stuck at:
>Hey man, we should just all like, let each other do what we want as long as we don't hurt each-other.
When they should be getting to the level beyond that:
>Some people have irreconcilable differences in beliefs and must be allowed to practice, even if that means they exclude others, since those people should be able to establish their own space were they can also perform their own practice.

Sorry if this seems a little off-base, but I believe that pleasure-seeking behavior, inhibitors, regulation, and a lot of national progressive thought is pretty closely linked and while low-THC weed, ritualistically consumed, might elevate someone, my experience with smokers has been that weed is a clutch rather then a boon. So I'm averse to "Stoner Culture" in the same way as I'm averse to "Queer Art".

You can't. The Internet changed and there's no space for small, secluded communities formed by same-minded folks with similar hobbies. Everything is either too open and accessible or too bothersome to setup and use.

You either end with 5 or so fags doing absolutely nothing and getting absolutely livind when new person appears and starts discussion or just another part of social media conglomerate where your hobby is just a thinly veiled political opinion.

>strong gatekeepers who can scare away normies.
This is bullshit because actual normies with the original meaning of the word don't play any sort of gachashit in the first place. On the other hand, the fandom is filled to the brim with secondaries who are normie-tier compared to other "non-normie" groups (ie terminally online people, bad irl social skills...etc.).
To answer >>50878606's classification
>normies
Easily gatekept as mentioned earlier.
>trannies
Failed to gatekeep. BA has tranny/AGP/gooner "fans" like any other franchise filled with female characters.
>pronoun people
Mixed bag because this is a description that applies to both above groups. Tumblr/Reddit/normie-Twitter pronoun people are easily filtered, while imageboard/Discord/online-Twitter pronoun people are not fazed.
