She's a playable character in Touhou 12. Hot off the presses.

Green Reimu.

She's the good girl

>>2144066
Link or lies.

Now she has learned that you can't be held back by common sense, and has gone completely insane.

Good Girl???

Straight from ZUN's blog. You can still smell the beer.

She just seems woefully plain. A level character that doesn't really do anything special, and doesn't really have any outstanding traits or personality quirks. She seemed to be somewhat interesting going by the MoF dialogue, but after that, she just sort of faded into becoming a normal person.

>>2144084
Image related, it is artistic nudity.

>>2144085
Yes, good girl.

>>2144101
Where's the rest of my Gogi Hiroyuki Touhou doujin?!!?

>>2144098
"Oh, did you come to visit the shrine in this cold weather?

Hoho, I know how to give you a proper greeting this time.

You can't let yourself be trapped by common sense in Gensokyo, right?"

I like her noncard attacks.

I like it when she attacks you with the power of Moses.

>>2144129
Omae wa shinderu

I like her spellcard names. That's about it.

>>2144098
Even in (serious) doujins, she mostly stands at the shrine sweeping, says about 3 lines, then is forgotten.

>>2144184
Wow, she's not a major character in doujins that aren't about her? Who would have thunk it?

NOBODY CARES ABOUT SANAE

>>2144193
She's never going to have a doujin about her because she doesn't do anything.

Up until the whole "good girl/slut" ruckus, only a few people have paid attention to Sanae.

What does her ability exactly do?

>>2144313
I always just took it as the ability to call upon divine powers.

>>2144313
She can create miracles.

>>2144205

Which doujin was this?

>>2144339

Omchicken - Stealth_Camouflage (Gensokyo.org)

>>2144345
The other Touhous' abilities wouldn't be considered miracles?

>>2144348

Thanks.

>>2144349
No, because they are commonplace in Gensokyo.

Sanae does things like turnng water to wine and killing your first born child.

Also wind.

>>2144349
No. I think it's more along the line of what >>2144338 said.

She can call on the gods to do divine miracles. I'm not sure if she herself has a potent "magical" ability, but she seems to be largely normal, only having the gods (well, really only the Moriya shrine gods) on her side.

I've always seen her as being basically the opposite of Reimu in that aspect.

>>2144366
And you forget parting the Red Sea as per her one spellcard from MoF.

開海「海が割れる日」

Sea Opening "The Day the Sea Split"

And

開海「モーゼの奇跡」

Sea Opening "Moses's Miracle"

>>2144384
>I'm not sure if she herself has a potent "magical" ability
She does.

From MoF:
She was originally a devotee of the wind god, but as she used her secret abilities to create miracles such as summoning the wind and rain, the people around her began to believe in this human with mysterious abilities.

In short, over time, people began to mistake the miracles caused by the wind god as being caused by her.

In addition, as a keeper of secrets, she began to accrue faith and be treated as a god, even though she was human. She was a living god.

When she was young, Sanae had mastered the secrets to call upon miracles that had been passed down through her family. A young girl that could call upon the power of miracles would certainly collect great amounts of faith --- one would expect.

However, the outside world had changed a great deal. Faith in even gods with many divine virtues had been decreasing rapidly. There were few who would worship even a living god who had attained divinity during their life as a human.

>>2144400
>In short, over time, people began to mistake the miracles caused by the wind god as being caused by her.
Here, it's suggested that it isn't really Sanae doing most of the work behind the miracle, so it's a bit iffy with me.

Sea Opening "Moses's Miracle"
Preparation "Star Ritual to Call the Godly Winds"
Preparation "Takeminakata Invocation"

All seem to suggest it as well, considering all three were divine summons of a sort rather than inherent ability. Just how I see it though. I actually like to think that she's a largely normal and plain human as opposed to Reimu.

>>2144415
Your reading comprehension is terrible. Sanae has always had the ability since she was a little girl to create miracles. It's just that eventually people started thinking that when Kanako did her thing it was actually Sanae because they have seen Sanae do the same thing.

Case in point, this line right here:
>When she was young, Sanae had mastered the secrets to call upon miracles that had been passed down through her family.

>I actually like to think that she's a largely normal and plain human as opposed to Reimu.
Again from MoF:

She did not take the humans of Gensokyo seriously. She thought that if they threatened the only shrine in Gensokyo, the Hakurei Shrine, Gensokyo itself would submit to their every wish. She went to deliver her ominous message to Reimu, and then was in turn defeated.

The humans who lived in Gensokyo were more troublesome than she'd imagined, and in time she learned of the power they held, as well.

Here, she was nothing special.
She realized she had gone from being a god incarnate to just a normal human being.

>>2144384
>>2144400
>>2144415
>>2144428
"Sanae is currently Kanako's Shrine Maiden, but the reason she can create miracles is because she is Suwako's distant descendant. Despite this, she does not seem to be fully aware that there are two gods within her own shrine."

ZUN agreed
Don't bother him about it.

>>2144428
>When she was young, Sanae had mastered the secrets to call upon miracles that had been passed down through her family.
It's no different than the somewhat cliche idea of a child that's the only one that can communicate with the gods, and the last hope of the little village. I suppose in that sense, yes she has some magical ability, but I still see it as being the gods that she calls upon doing most of the work.

>She realized she had gone from being a god incarnate to just a normal human being.
You seem to interpret it literally. She seemed like a God incarnate in the outside world, because gods were working through her. Reimu, on the other hand, is packing hardcore, spiritual power that she's capable of doing herself.

Again, I can see how you got to where you are, but I don't think my idea is entirely incorrect or anything.

>>2144400
Why is Sanae's character description so contradictory upon itself?

Sanae's power is to be cute and kind.

Sanae confimed for Unidentified Fantastic Object.

>>2144438
>she does not seem to be fully aware that there are two gods within her own shrine.

Actually, she's well aware of Suwako by SA Extra.

we can start calling it UFO all the same, however.

>>2144184
Broom Sanae is the best.

I'll bet after Touhou 12, the fanbase's view of her won't even change one bit.

All we need now are Kanako and Suwacko, and UFO will be the best Touhou game since MoF.

I walways imagined her as the 'normal' character amongst weirdos, similar to Hisui in Tsukihime. Normal personality for a teenage girl, and a good perspective on both reality and Gensokyo due to switching between the two.

That, and I just like the fanart depicting her as having grown up with periods spent in Gensokyo with the God duo.

>>2146110

>suwacko

>>2146183

>>2146110
Don't leave out Nitori ~

>>2146188

You only said this so I would notice.

Anyway, I like that Sanae is sort of the innocent character in Gensokyo. There's a bunch of fan-art of her being embarassed/happy about the announcement on Pixiv right now and it makes me smile.

Even this pretty awful art made me go, "Aw, Sanae."

>>2146205

I see her being more like a child that just got her ass handed to her so badly, the arrogance got pretty much beat out of her. I don't see her as a bad person, but not really an innocent one either.

>>2146205
No way, it would be fun! Maybe if you double tapped backwards when you weren't focussed you would just turn into a shell / backpack that couldn't fire.

>>2146137
Lies, Reisen is the only truly normal Touhou. She also gets canonically harassed the most.

>>2146216
Youmu gets her fair share of teasing.

UFO...UUUUFFOO

>>2146225
Not as much as Reisen though.

>>2146233
Oh yeah, Sanae's the only one there who even knows the term UFO.

TH12: Touhous are finally showing their true clolors by robbing innocent aliens' ship without any reason besides making themselves rich.

>>2146266
If that's the case, then Marisa's been showing her true colors since the start of the windows era. ze~

>>2146266
What the fuck is a cloror?

>>2146282
>>2146261
I like this doujin. It does a bit of exaggerating, but it's still easy to imagine them to be like that, and Suwako's actually pretty close to her character description.

>>2146281
It's their alien vag00.

I'm looking forward to seeing Sanae's character fleshed out in the game. After Marisa's douchebaggotry and Reimu's shoot first, get annoyed later personalities over the past 2 games (which aren't necessarily bad things) Sanae's route might be a breath of fresh air.

>>2146292
I loved it when Suwako says "Calm down Pops" to Kanako.

>Sanae's route might be a breath of fresh air.
I hope.
Being a playable character is the only way to achieve some character development in the canon Toehoe world...

not a bitch.

>>2146496
>not a bitch.
Huh? Didn't she threaten Reimu?

>>2146507
Only because Reimu was tearing shit up and trying to threaten her god.

>>2146507
She got beaten so soundly that she got the arrogance beaten out of her.
Now she realizes she's "ordinary" in Gensokyo, instead of some hot-shot miracle worker.

>>2146496
>not a bitch
Huh? She just up and starts trying to tear down the established religion of Gensokyo; it's a good thing for all of us that Reimu was there to put her back in her place.

>>2146507
>>2146515
Lets rephrase that, not as bitchy as reimu

>>2146539
Well, if you have to deal with youkai and Gods constantly doing shit that could potentially ruin Gensokyo; along with childish Celestials destroying her shrine and that despite the amount of visitors she gets, none of them donate--yeah, I bet you'd be a little cold and bitter at times too.

I don't know who Sanae is but if Fate is for the transient people is her stage song and Gray Thaumaturgy is its arrangement then she can be my good girl

No I haven't played MoF yet

all touhou characters have the same personality in the games
