The problem I have with Tohonifun's Reimu in particular is the absolute bullshit powerlevel Reimu has. It's like the entire former part is made just so that you'll hate Reimu. (Mocking Cirno until she cries before beating her headlong into a rocky outcropping. Then spending the rest of the manga just glaring at people until they exhaust themselves.)

I'm not sure whether I find that worse than the fact that Reimu subsequently manages to fire enough homing amulets that somehow gained shot-blocking powers to outpace Sakuya WHILE she's using time manipulation and Patchouli's hosing the general area with spells at a rate of 3 spellcards in 1 page. She may as well have just flown straight up in the air, and thrown the freaking Sun on the SDM given the impossiblity factor of that stunt, but I guess that would've cut into her glaring time.

As for my own views of regular Reimu, I don't count Reimu as one of my favorite characters. In fact, I generally don't like main female characters, because they tend to have very generic personalities. I kind of like regular Reimu for her sort of mordant manner of treating endless threats upon her life, although Marisa's much higher on my list. Reimu's certainly better than the generic pleasant-to-everyone wants-to-be-a-bride-when-she-grows-up female lead that seems to be some kind of hidden Japanese anime mandate, at least.

Cirno crying is too much for me. Too much.

Why is Reimu such a jerk? Is she eternally on her period or something?

Reimu must have the strongest uterus in Gensokyo.

Reimu is the worst in all of Gensokyo
