No more gooning, insults, hate or murder intents. I like her, and I respect her as a woman and a youkai being. I liked her when she was around my life and she is welcome if she so desires. Yay!

Yukari, Yukari, Yukari! She is the best.

Is there still any intererest whatsoever in esoteric touhou threads or did that theme die out long time ago?

It's wrestling lingo or also called carny, something that /asp/ (previously) /xs/-/sp/-/pw/ or any internet wrestling or sport community commonly use to talk about anything. It's like their secret exotic language, and since I also sometimes visit wrestling forums, I understand it pretty well. So what he is saying is that he got a biker girlfriend outside of the internet and asks if he is now a villain for turning on them? And the answers look like it.

If your favorite has an existing clear lineage behind her, congrats, you can just start practicing the mainstream form of worship towards that divinity. It really is the easiest form. 95% of what I do is orthodox Shinto praxis, I have a kamidana and ofuda from several shrines which enshrine deities whose newer manifestations are Touhou characters.

If your favorite lacks lineage, it is unclear, complicated or has never been formally worshipped, then you have to make something of your own. This involves figuring out what they represent, what kind of things are associated with them, and what is appropriate with them. Once you have figured this out, it is possible to construct prayers and rituals, like we did with Yukari-sama.

The minimum viable baseline is treating them as being unambiguously real and just reaching out to them in any respectful manner you can figure. You can just literally pray with sincere intent with any choice of words, even just expressing the desire to hear back from them.
>>51042128
I think the big disconnect here which has for me become this kind of fish can't see the water it swims in type of scenario is that the West is awfully specific about how to present and name divinity, but in the East it's more recognized that divinity can and has appeared under many different names and shapes, and that sometimes the names and shapes have changed.

While "worshipping a Touhou character" would no doubt be considered strange by most Japanese and heretical by some, they have things like the Tateishi Kumano shrine having official shrine merch which draws a parallel between Yatagarasu and Okuu. So the lines are blurred even outside of cases like Suwa which is full of ema prayer boards full of Touhou art. The connection to existing faith and lineage is there. So even though this view would be a minority one, perhaps even a very tiny one, the idea of Touhou characters as legitimate new manifestations of older forms of divinity is not so alien to them as it is to many in the West.

1) By invoking a connection to something that exists earlier, you start building a bridge. It might be weak and slim at first, but it can grow into something wide and solid. The earliest very clear instance of something numinous finding a connection into Touhou is Perfect Cherry Blossom and it likely happened before that too. ZUN calling himself a shrine priest certainly does not lessen the attention either.
2) Yes, but it is less "get million dollars instantly" and more like the spiritual equivalent of replacing gut bacteria which cause you to developed colon cancer at 30 and make your tummy hurt after eating onions with a microbiome that doesn't make those things happen. Perhaps a weird example but the best one I have thought of so far.
3) By repeated long term pattern observation, including study of history and culture and how these things have manifested in the past. Your learn to discern the patterns on the clouds from the clouds by looking past representations (as beloved and approachable as they are) and trying to perceive the higher pattern of what they really represent, not as characters in the tiny snowglobe of ZUN's Gensokyo, but in their totality.


Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.

Suppose you were one of the only males who interacted with the main Touhou cast. You begin living with Reimu through sheer happenstance and now help her at the shrine. How would the other characters react and treat you whenever they tended to visit the shrine and suddenly saw a boy living there?

Confusing fear/distress-coded excitement for arousal. Many such cases with harmful fetishes. Or it's people being full of themselves as they get off on believing they'd handle this psychologically. Trust me I'm a trained fetish researcher.

Post Japanese gravure here
Remember this is a SFW board
Relax, and rejuvenate your eyes with beauties.
>A gravure idol (グラビアアイドル gurabia aidoru), often abbreviated to gradol (グラドル guradoru), is a Japanese female model who primarily models on magazines, especially men's magazines, photobooks or DVDs. Gravure idols appear in a wide range of photography styles and genres. Their photos are largely aimed at male audiences with poses or activities intended to be provocative or suggestive, generally accentuated by an air of playfulness and innocence rather than aggressive sexuality. Although gravure models may sometimes wear clothing that exposes most of their body, they seldom appear fully nude.

I agree with a lot of what you said. However these early results seem to be rarely indicative of the finals in my experience. I think we can expect at least one of the in the final 7 but it feels mostly different in the end.
I really like Noa because she seems to like to really promote herself on social media, like last years cocona so I have hopes she'll make it.
I'm getting less hopeful for Momoe tho ..
