>Dealing with post satori training, and teachers, people who are long time practices of meditation seem to have this way of holding themselves, and of moving. Its like adding water to moving water. They dont seem to move when they move. Byakuren is someone who, especially in SoPM, is perceived as kind of a fool, is easily fooled, and made fused and confused easily. Thats not how a master or roshi presents themselves. Again, this is a personal issue, and I doubt that zun intended to have Byakuren be a perfect example. It just makes the character seem less real in my eyes.

Guy from that post again. If you're still here, I have to ask; what are some particularly good examples of characters who have achieved this sort of innate grace and fluidity in media? What about some bad ones, ones that demonstrate lessons of what to avoid?

Please, be detailed, if you are willing

I don't know. You seem pretty perturbed. Maybe that's just me, though

Did Zun ever specify whether Byakuren followed Theravada or Mahayana?

How could someone so afraid of death so easily let her fellows and followers die?

Disgusting.

Her background makes her seem somewhat selfish though. Shouldn't Buddhists embrace death?
Her brother was the real hero.
ZUN said he once was going to make him the final boss but thought that a male touhou character in the game would be weird.

In the game, it basically has the effect of making her really fucking fast (See: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7hLbz3-KV0))
The fans though seem to be interpreting it as her being really good at brawling (See: Tohonifun's Yuka vs Byakuren).

So yeah, take an ordinary magician like Marisa, give her the martial abilities of Meiling, as well as a miko's anti-youkai powers (from her previous profession of being a youkai exterminator), and you get Hijiri Byakuren.

Not exactly god-hax, but pretty formidable nonetheless.

Reading some of this lessons on Shintoism got me thinking. Wouldn't Byakuren and her Buddhist driven religion be seen as a heretical invasion or is Gensyoko more progressive then we think?

"seduced General" really Captcha?
