Pretty neat seeing an explanation to something that happened in a different Touhou manga.
Also I love how Sanae thinks of Pikachu when told about a thunder beast. It's fun seeing her thinking like someone from the outside world.
I just realized something. If this really is just an improvised bluff from Hecatia, than that means it isn't the real reason she planted Clownpiece in Gensokyo.
Whatever Hecatia is planning it hasn't even begun yet.
Also, I really think Okina's wheel chair looks way cooler than her throne...
Gotta love ZUN's writing! This is some the only canonical fanservice in the entirety of Touhou (besides Reimu's armpits) and its more incidental to the story than anything else.
You guys have really weird standards for good parenting. All Hecatia did was say she's using Clownpiece for her own ends and give her new orders, and now she's apparently the best mom ever?
This chapter also revealed that losing the 3rd Lunar War was part of her plan all along, meaning she sent...
I really like how they subtly show how truly good Eiki is in this chapter. Despite being famously harsh on sinners, she reminds Reimu that people are innocent until proven guilty and her first instinct is to believe Hecatia had the best intentions.
Shiki Eiki is one of the most underappreciated...
If you look closely on page three of chapter 235 in Kengan Asura, you can see Dr. Hanafusa right before he's given the heart in the exact same pose and saying the exact same thing as in the second panel of page 13. This was planned from the very beginning and they played us like a damn fiddle!
