Hypnosis is about unearthing the hidden, the repressed, unacceptable aspects of the self, the shadow. It feels retarded because instead of coming to terms with her own archetypical desires and aspects and integrating them, as would be the healthy resolution exploring the subconscious, she becomes one with them, which indeed DELETES the old personality. Instead of getting her tsundere mask off and accepting that she has a desire of Belonging, of connecting with others despite being somewhat secluded (that's the reason she puts puppet shows in the village and she helps people often) engaging that desire in a healthy way, she ends up as a cock obsessed retard uniquely connecting with others through mindless enjoyment of her sexual lust, not sublimating her desires. And it feels pretty stupid because you can picture some crack whore ending like that, but not one of our idealized touhous.

The ones who want her hypnotized but not mind broken want to take advantage of that libido to be able to have sex for once, and are on a middle ground between that and appreciating her actual character. Kedamono Kangoku, chinchintei, rindou, and those artists that usually draw hypnosis usually also have decapitation art, annilingus, humilliation or worse stuff than 'death' of the original personality. Even furui has tentacles stuff. As an armchair analysis, without knowing them, I can only venture that either they are aware of archetypes too and fully embrace them (rare but who knows), or they don't give a fuck about the touhous beyond them being sex-lust-violence receptacles on which to exert power plays.

You can deny it, but the popularity of those doujins over vanilla ones just shows that most people into doujins actually have those desires, even though due to a repressive and controlled society and their weakness they obviously won't even come close to acting on them. Ask yourself, which ones do get uploaded and are trending at all times?

Hypnosis is an actual thing and one of the most proved ways of hypnosis is self-suggestion. One of the ways to conditionate yourself and facilitate engaging the subconscious (which usually gets dumbed down to 'being possessed' or 'brainwashed') can be as dumb as putting a piece of clothing on, like a thinking hat to become more objective, feminine/masculine clothes to connect with the masculine/feminine side, or would you look at that, earrings. >>37244143

TL;DR: it's japanese porn barely taking 20-40 pages so you get sexual desires being unveiled in a retarded, dramatic and sudden way. Just like in shows and movies about dystopias (external desire for utopian safety) you get the desire for freedom and transgression being unveiled
