Also, anyone who says that 2hu is irrelevant now probably only watches highlight clips of their favorite vtubers and doesn't really know anything about anything about what's happening anywhere else.
The moment ZUN lets his guard down for one of the very few things he allows commercial-wise, corporations dig it up instantly. There's already been FOUR gacha games since Cannonball, from four different companies. Regardless if Cannonball itself was a failure, that's something else. That's more than any other gacha, even Tales only has three. Do note that it hasn't even been a year since Cannonball came out...
Yukkuri letsplays are still around as big as hololive in Japan, especially with children. To this day they still get hundreds of thousands to millions of views really fast, and they've been there for far longer than vtubers. Random children in school are found humming Touhou themes and playing it in their electone. Even in one of the 2hu streams there was a section highlighting a bunch of fanart from children. Even IF (big if) the fans now slowly die off, 2hu basically has a lifeline of new fans, artists, and worshippers in waiting.
And don't forget even vtubers glorify Touhou. Fubuki and Marine are one of the most popular of them all and both of them talk about 2hu quite a lot. Marine herself is a legit primary and plays 2hu games on her streams often.

Touhou's life is still long and won't die anytime soon, no matter how much you wish it. I still remember when Kancolle was this enormous wave and people started incessantly 2hu doomposting, and oh how is it now...
