2 of her 3 co-stars are sluts who take all the dicks leaving none for her.

She have seen some shit.

>>13471394
Tell me about Marisa, why does he wear a crescent?

She's supposed to fighting the moon bitches.

>>13471394
You try being an ordinary human magician going against the Lunarian Army

>>13471477
>ordinary
Well...

>>13471394
Umm, Marisa, you're going to break your broom if you bend it like that...

Last time she fought on the moon she was scared.

>>13471473
Marisa is a devout Shia Muslim.

>>13471394
She's realizing she that she is well on her way to becoming a youkai and she doesn't know what to feel about it. Also, she's essentially going to war

>>13471477
The moon belongs to the United Stated of America

Marisa is so pale! She needs to get some sun.

>>13471394
She gained a lot of weight. Thats why the broom is bending under her.

>>13471473
In honor of her teacher, who wielded a crescent moon staff.
That's also why she's taken to wearing blue recently.

>>13471394
She's realized that Mima probably won't be in this game, either.

>>13471515
>she is well on her way to becoming a youkai

Reimu would have to murder her if that ever happened.

>>13471828
>mfw there are people mad about Mima not being in 14.5

They're too hyped from the mysterious shadow that appeared in the end of the demo.

>>13471955

She's not a villager. Only human villagers are forbidden from that.

Because they are youkais pets.

>>13473298
That's bullshit, we were never told whether Marisa counts as a villager, and Reimu never revealed the "no villager ascensions allowed" thing immediately prior to murdering Count anyway, so we wouldn't know about any other rules that may be against Marisa going youkai.

For all we know, she'll be at Marisa's door the moment she casts that remove-need-to-eat-food spell, waiting with a cool pose to prevent another dirty jinrei from disrupting Gensokyo's perfect and immaculate system.

>>13473347

Maybe if you don't proceed to FUCK WITH THINGS DIRECTLY AFTER YOUKAIFICATION she'll let you live.

What the count did was essentially like turning black and IMMEDIATELY robbing people.

Perpetuates negative stereotypes, we know he was a groid at heart all along

>>13471955
Could Reimu really take on Marisa? Sure she'd lose in danmaku but if it was a serious fight with killing intent couldn't Marisa just completely nuke Reimu out of existence with little effort?

>>13473353
But he's supposed to do that kind of stuff. Youkai gotta youk, else they die.

Reimu doesn't mind youkai doing youkai things, up to and including human eating.

>>13473359
If she gets a drop on her (and good luck with Reimu's instinct thing) then maybe. In a serious fight, not a chance.

To put this into perspective, Fantasy Heaven can only be timed because of spellcard rules. She could be invincible forever if she wanted to.

>>13473365
The truth? Because /jp/ bullied her way too much during all those years.

>>13473347

Marisa is a witch living in a youkai infested forest. She is pretty much not a human already.

>>13471394
I really like the new art for the new game, not as a "well that's Zun for you!" but as in I think the art is really nice.

>>13473456
He's trying really hard because the tone of this game is serious.

>>13473440
No, youkai normally don't live in the magic forest, too much shrooms.

>>13473353
>Maybe if you don't proceed to FUCK WITH THINGS DIRECTLY AFTER YOUKAIFICATION she'll let you live.

Wait, what did he do? I don't remember him doing anything evil.

>>13471394
She knows that she's the worst character to play with in this game. Did you not see the video with the Master Spark glitch?

>>13473372
>Fantasy Heaven can only be timed because of spellcard rules
I can't imagine it be truly invincible since danmaku isn't exactly like actual fighting some of which are ended incredibly quickly because of bullshit powerlevels of character. At the very least I doubt it could be used indefinitely without exhausting her.

Also if Marisa of all people were to have anticipated it shouldn't she be able to think up some way around it?

>>13473555
Just look at Marisa vs Reimu mock battle in CoLA.

Marisa is the flashy type, she uses all kind of beam, stars and shit to hit Reimu, but she never does because power is nothing without a degree of accuracy.

Reimu doesn't even try to dodge and destroy Marisa.

>>13471394
She's tripping pretty hard on Pointdevice Elixir.

>>13473566
Which is why I say anticipated. Obviously if you're going to try and pull some shit that will potentially get your ass killed you won't just go into it as is, you'd prepare and practice. Marisa hasn't become a magician yet obviously so when and if she ever does she'll likely think it out to some extent. Going youkai is a process, you wouldn't just wake up one morning and think "fuck it, I got the afternoon off lets do this".

>>13473596
Marisa thinks she's smart.

Well, Reimu is a born-genius.

>>13471543
No! Pale skin is beautiful, you will ruin her?

>>13473596
Someone should write a fanfic where Marisa consults Patchy and Alice on becoming a youkai, and the two swearing they'll help her fight against Reimu.

>>13473603
Shes more than smart enough, she just doesn't use her smarts because she acts without forethought, has a tendency to pull stupid shit, and often times gets away with it.

>>13473624
>Shes more than smart enough
I didn't mean that in an objectively "I think she's capable out smarting Reimu" way but in a "I think she's smart enough to try and do this seriously if she wanted to" way.

>>13471394
I like this drawing a lot. It has pose and mood.

>>13471394
She's realizing how zun can't draw knees.

You know, I've been thinking. Why does the rule say it's only illegal to become a youkai?

I mean, Marisa now has magic powerful enough to compete with the high-tier youkai, and she's still a human.

If the villagers all study magic like her too, then they'll stop fearing the youkai too, thus disturbing the balance.

Shouldn't the rule just be "Just live your life peacefully in the village and don't try to gain power"?

>>13473704
can't marisa only "compete" with high tier youkai in playfighting (dankmaku)? So it seems like the real balance of power between humans and strong youkai is unsurmountable without becoming a youkai.

>>13473704
Not everyone has that kind of potential. Also training magic in a village full of normal humans who are content with their comfy lives isn't exactly a productive environment. I imagine once you can defend yourself properly and reach your limitations there you'd cut ties and isolate yourself or start hanging around with other magic practicers, actual magicians, or youkai that won't kill you.

>>13473715
>can't marisa only "compete" with high tier youkai in playfighting (dankmaku)?

But.. but.. muh Master Spark...

Though that explains why her Master Spark was so tiny in SSiB. She could only do that much in a real battle.

ZUN is a fucking genius.

>>13473726
>Not everyone has that kind of potential

Perhaps this is the main reason.

That jinyou guy may have tried going the Marisa route but found that he had no talent whatsoever. So he went full Count.

>>13473715
My understanding is its the weak and medium strength youkai you need to worry about. Someone already very powerful isnt going to randomly go around splattering people because it isn't of much benefit and they haversack more important things to do.

The fact that people become magicians without getting killed should be proof it's possible.

>>13473704
I guess Marisa is seen as an incident solver, one of the few "heroes" of the humans.

Also doesn't Marisa have a meh tier relationship with her family?

>>13473796
>Also doesn't Marisa have a meh tier relationship with her family?

Private and rarely mentioned. She doesn't want to talk about it.

>>13473704
Marisa should've been Mima's apprentice from the start, so she was never been a part of the village so she wouldn't be bound to this rule.

Too bad ZUN retconned that.

Marisa's probably just an exception, though I don't know how much she'd be pushing it if she legit went full youkai magician.

>>13475317
Marisa will be the stage 6 boss of Touhou 16 where she turns Youkai. Mark my words, I can feel it in my bones.

She misses Mima

>>13471394
That's the face of a love-stricken girl who's seen men and has enjoyed the company of them.

>>13475483
I don't like how my Touhous are all growing up and knowing men

>>13475553
>knowing men

>>13475553
I will take responsibility don't worry.

>>13471809
POSSESS ME , MIMA-SAMA!!!

>>13475417
And Mima will be a playable character so that we can come full circle on Marisa's upbringing?

>>13471394
She saw the outside world and didn't want to return.

>>13476189
She could stay at my house if she wanted to.

>>13471394
>the 2hus are no longer little girls
Why have you forsaken them, and us, zun?

>>13473499
Explain.

>>13475622
Okay. You're possessed.
Now get get Mima-sama some tempura shrimp. She hungers.

>>13471809
Inb4 Marisa's clothes become more and more Mima-like with each new game.
>changed recently from black to blue clothes
>now wears a crescent
>next game will have her removing the brim of her hat.
>game after that she starts wearing a cape

Inb4 the bones were always right, all these years. Mima actually has been in all games.
She possessed Marisa

What does Marisa eat if she lives in the middle of the magic forest?

>>13476613
>Marisa died in MS
>Mima possesses her body and acts like her so that Reimu won't be depressed that her friend is dead

>>13476617
Marisa's canonly addicted to shrooms.

>>13476855
>canonly
That's not a real word, retard.

>>13476617
She trips out on magic forest mushrooms. I mean, who can blame her? Shrooms are fun as fuck.

Is it canon Marisa is jealous of Reimu?
She seems to call alot of Reimu's techniques "cheating".

>>13477570
Marisa put a lot of time and effort into her abilities and Reimu is just naturally gifted. You could call it jealousy but I'm pretty sure Marisa is too aloof all the time to really care.

>>13477602
Marisa has some crazy bullshit advantages too from living in the forest and befriending all types of weirdos.

>>13477618
>has crazy advantages by choosing where to live and who to talk to.

that's just being smart and effective. reimu could do it to. but marisa cant easily cast a good spell without hard work.

>>13477570
Reimu can teleport around and shit.

I'd call that cheating.

>>13477662
Marisa is more sociable and shit than Reimu is. Marisa would go ahead and spend an hour shooting the shit with some random ass youkai that maybe has some cool knowledge. Reimu doesn't go out of her way to do that. In a way thats an advantage in and of itself.

>>13471394
She's sad because her broom is now as thin as spaghetti.

>>13475483
>>13475553
More like she had a man, but they break up, she using the incident to distract herself and stop thinking about him

Youmu is still adorable.

>>13473359
What about a cage match with no magic powers allowed? My money's on Reimu.

>>13483032
>A no magic between a witch and a god empowered (not magic) shrine maiden...

Come now.

>>13483032
Define magic powers, a lot of Marisa's abilities are explosive potions and other things she's created, not explicitly magic. And as far as magic powers go, a majority of Reimu's abilities (and the abilities of shrine maidens in general) are more effective against youkai and would be less effective against a normal human.

Marisa is so lewd showing her knees like that

>>13483053
I mean nothing besides brawn is allowed when they step into the ring.
>>13483045
God powers count.

>>13483081
So its basically a frail girl with a stick versus a frail girl with a stick. It could go either way.

>>13483099
As long as someone gets bloodied up, the outcome is okay
