>What exactly do you think "broken" is?
Malfunctioning.
>She's called upon the gods several times though?? It's a well-established ability.
But not to solve incidents, that's what we're talking about.
>You've said this like five times and keep hammering on it as though it's extremely important but have not sourced it.
WaHH Chapter 23.
> but the moon invasion is irrelevant here because even though they were "the villains", Reimu was a part of them and totally ok with it because they were having fun.
No, I just told you that she only did it because Yukari made her do so, how the hell do you even think this is a valid thing to raise when she HERSELF knows that they're the bad guys? Does she ever acknowledge herself as the bad guy ever again for doing her ''invasions''? No, because she became dumber.
>Now you switched over to TD, but I don't find this a good example either because she went in thinking they were causing trouble
That's not the point, the point is that she realized they weren't causing trouble yet still attacked them, in her own words, for no reason. So SSiB Reimu would call her a villain.
>as if Reimu back then had this moral compass that is more "righteous" than it is now,
Yes, I'm saying that. In fact Reimu nowadays goes against one of the things that ZUN said caused everyone in Gensokyo to like her: to treat everyone in the same way, as shown in IaMP where she doesn't care about attacking humans as well as youkai. Nowadays she's all about ''a youkai must have done it''. Even in SoPM when she storms the meeting, she defends Akyuu, despite her being just as guilty of agreeing to making the ''treaty''.

Most noticeably though, she was way more cool-headed back then, making snarky comments and references here and there, nowadays she's like an overexcited, extremely sensitive child that everyone looks down upon, especially in WaHH where chapters usually end with Kasen and Marisa having a mature conversation while Reimu acts dumb and childish somewhere else.
