What shrine should I give my faith to and why, the Hakurei Shrine or the Moriya Shrine?

>> No.15885117

Reimu is cuter but Sanae has bigger tits, if the LoLK art is anything to go by.

It's a tough choice.

>> No.15885124

i never had that question, but personally i'll give my faith to the Hakurei Shrine

Obviously the Moriya Shrine. They're a friendly and dynamic team, rooted in traditional Shinto values but focused on progress and always with an eye to the future. They get shit done, and what's more, you can actually meet the gods there.

The Hakurei Shrine is a bankrupt relic of an institution, coasting along on the reputation and history of its name, and held up solely by its lazy, unpersonable miko's uncanny innate abilities. There's nothing to worship but a donation box.

The Hakurei Shrine because the one who runs it actually matters to Gensokyo.
Moriya Shrine is just a shameless business style shrine.

Hakurei.
If Reimu's god gets enough faith it can physically manifest. It would be another qt for the series. Other options dont increase the population of cute girls.

Hakurei. Unlike Kanako, the Hakurei god isn't a pathetic entity that goes around panhandling for scraps of faith.

The Hakurei shrine has also been instrumental in resolving nearly every crisis that Gensokyo has ever faced. This includes cleaning up messes created by the incompetent Moriya.

>>15885139
Not a bad choice for youkai or misanthropists I suppose.

>> No.15885640

Reimu's done plenty of good, but I can't promote her shrine at all. She's a jerk, doesn't care about her worshipers at all, constantly has youkai hanging around the shrine, and most importantly of all, the Hakurei god is a complete non-factor. You get nothing out of giving your faith to that shrine.
Moriya, on the other hand, cares plenty about their worshipers, and the gods actively need faith to live, so they'll give you benefits to keep you. Also Sanae's better than Reimu.
It's a pretty clear choice.

I'm sure the Hakurei god has little interest in the "faith" of worshipers who are only looking for personal gain.

I suppose deciding what gods are worthy of reverence in the same fashion that one might choose what brand of rice-crackers to purchase is the sort of behavior that should be expected from Moriya adherents.

Mortals have faith, gods need faith. Mortals need or want divine favors, gods have those aplenty. That's how the god/worshipers dynamic works.

The Hakurei god provides the continued existence of Gensokyo and the safety of humanity there, largely by empowering Reimu.

I suppose that doesn't provide the immediate satisfaction of a better harvest or good business deal, though.

Moriya of course. Kanako and to a lesser extent Suwako are actually very active in the enhancement of Gensokyo's living conditions and scientific advancement. The Hakurei god is content to just sit behind his veil and watch.
