/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Yep, that is pretty cute.

Indeed.

Worst, most boring touhou of all.

Still cute though.

Kaguya's portrait is the cutest

>>3451759
♥

Fifth treasure: The Swallow’s Cowrie Shell

I think she was officially ranked as worst Touhou in some poll.

>>3451757

The white hare of Inaba, mysteriously turned into the white rabbit of Inaba.
Spetsnaz bunny from the moon.
Genderswapped Josef Megele.

Fun for the whole family, not even counting the actual final boss.

Fourth treasure: Jewel of the Dragon's Head

>>3451739
Has she mastered the swallow reversal sword fighting technique?

Third treasure: Robe of the Fire-Rat

(yeah, yeah, shut up; it's the least popular of the five treasures)

>>3451792

Likely not. The technique was not passed on and no descriptions survive. It died with Kojiroh.
There are "reconstructions", but none has any real claim of authencity.

>>3451739
S-she's not THAT cute.

Second treasure: Jeweled Branch of Hourai (Penglai)

First treasure: the Buddha's Stone Begging Bowl

That's funny; I could swear I had an image of Kaguya and the stone bowl on their own.

> Old. I already read this on http://www.anantalk.com/ (anan = anon) last night.
I skipped breakfast today and I don't think this will be good for me... :)

You can buy Kaguya's dress and blouse for $150 online. I'm actually wearing it right now. It's good to be a NEET.

>>3451841

>>3451841

It's rather plain. You'd think a princess of the moon would be wearing something a bit more elaborate.
Or to put it bluntly, more immobilizing.

>>3451841
I doubt it would fit me anyways, moon princesses aren't 6'4" with broad chests. ;_;

>>3451859
It's basically her nightgown; she never bothers to get fully dressed like she would have to if she was still a part of Lunarian high society.

>>3451860
No, they custom fit it to your dimensions. You give them your measurements, and 2-3 weeks later it shows up in a box in a fedex/ups truck. It was actually $210 including shipping and handling.

>>3451841
I want this costume!

>>3451865

Ah, yes. That would explain it.

>>3451858

On the subject of a well-read Kaguya, doesn't part of the Eientei host a museum or something along those lines?

>>3451739
Help me Eirin, I'm constipated!

>>3451934
ZUN-Art = superior

>>3451867
...oh god so tempting ;_;

>>3451922
The Princess takes colon health very seriously.

>>3451867
I actually used that as a guide for mine and I only spent $40 in materials and 10 days. As you all saw from the cosplay threads, it doesn't look that bad until you get close.
I'm gonna remake it in either silk or charmeuse when I get some money.
I doubt it'll be ready by PMX ;_;

>>3451955
I'll still make my own. It feels more satisfying.

>>3452000
I actually never saw your pics. I'm an intermittent lurker, sometimes I'll take a break for a month and go on a vacation.

Also, I can't sew and I don't have nimble fingers, so I can't make my own shit.

Kaguya & E-rin

>>3452012
Go on flickr and use the search term 'teruyo'
I don't want to derail a nice Kaguya thread.

>Also, I can't sew
It's not as hard as people make it out to be. Patience is the key, in my opinion.

>I don't have nimble fingers
Nimble fingers are a plus but not a requirement. My mom can't sew a straight line but that's because I figured out that the machine needed to go slow in order to sew a straight line.
Why yes, she did ask me to make her some curtains...
;_;

>>3452069
Oh god, wtf. But you even have girls touching you in the pictures.

I don't get it.

I've never been touched by a girl.

>>3452085
I wasn't expecting that either... it came as big a surprise as most of /jp/ liking it.

Also, I'm gonna try making a 12" tall plush Teruyo so I can hug her...
;_;

>>3452069
Nice hair.

>>3451789

THAT'S NOT DRAGON ENOUGH

>>3452135

That's because while /jp/ goes around hating on cosplayers, they secretly wish that they had a frilly dress too.

>>3452139
It was really amusing when my wig was slipping since I have shoulder length hair.
What was more amusing was the guys doing double takes at the beard.

Also, junihitoe version. One day I shall make it!
Cause I like long flowing robes
Even though it's a bitch to walk in

>>3451836

And here's a singular pic of the Buddha's stone bowl.

>>3452187

>>3452171
I'm still irked I didn't get to add the frills to it. or the bow And I have to redo the skirt since the bamboo stalk didn't survive the wash.

Mokou > dry-paint > Kaguya

Look, this is Kaguya.
Pikoko, huh?

>>3452177
It must have taken balls of steel to go through with it. Did you have any second thoughts as you approached the convention center?

Did you go with friends?

>>3452220

Jump before you think.
That Issun is a smart guy.

>>3452220
>It must have taken balls of steel to go through with it.
They still hurt when punched. Which happened accidentally on Saturday.
Just cause I'm dressed like a woman doesn't mean it won't hurt if I'm punched there

>Did you have any second thoughts as you approached the convention center?
It was the walk to the convention center that was nerve wracking. Luckily, I parked at the Holiday Inn across the street so I only got really weird looks from the news people that were covering the Michael Jackson bit. And the gathering was at the entrance so... yeah. Really short walk.

>Did you go with friends?
No /jp/er has friends.
My genderswapped useless bunny backed out on me

>>3452220

It's not too bad. You can be comforted by the fact that tons of other people at the con are going to be dressed in equally ridiculous outfits.

>>3452264
But the combination of dress, long hair, and beard is rather unusual even by cosplay standards.
No, I didn't see a MaidGuy anywhere

Kaguya would be my favorite Touhou.

But Mokou ensures that she comes in second.

>>3452314
I still feel that Kaguya just wants Mokou to come out of her hermit-like shell.
Yeah, like the NEET is one to speak

>>3452332

After the events of the past millennium or so, Kaguya is just barely human anymore anyway.

I recently read all of the currently released chapters of Inaba of the Moon Inaba of the Earth, and I just can't get enough of the Eientei bunch. I wish it was a weekly release.

>>3452340
But she still has her sanity.
She was never human
At least that's what I've understood. And she generally just wants to bug Mokou cause of Mokou's character to stay in the forest hidden and away from everyone.

>>3452360
Let's not go overboard here. Got all eternity to wait for it anyway.

Tous les femmes sont mortelles.

>>3452381
I've been meaning to read that book...

>>3452368

Word of God says Lunarians are human--they're basically a separate subspecies/race, but not different enough to be "not human". Of course, their technology (life extension, etc) makes a big difference as well.

>>3452381
Did you just call me a fag?

>>3452393
Good catch. Don't tell anyone I tell subtle lies

>>3452393
>>3452368

Even separate from that, Kaguya was reborn as an Earthling human after she drank the Hourai Elixir.

It was the events of Kaguya-hime the Woodcutter's Daughter, don'tcha know?

>>3452381

My mind has always connected those sort of principles to Kaguya and Mokou.

They would both be wise/experienced, of course. They would likely be very patient, since time is meaningless to them--why give up a potentially interesting experience to save time... when you have all the time in the world?

There needs to be more doujins of them in the future.

I have dreams of Mokou going to Hakurei shrine and meeting with the miko there, confusing her with Reimu, who died 70 years ago ;_;.

>>3452426

Touhou's story of Kaguya-hime is not exactly identical to the original.

If anything, I'd say that *Mokou* was moreso reborn; for one, the elixir was designed for Lunarians, not ordinary humans.

I always figure that Mokou's hair was originally black, but the effects of the Hourai Elixir bleached it.

>>3452435

Well, it's still canon in her backstory that she was reborn.

And I don't think the Elixir was "designed" for anyone in particular.

Anyway I prefer the whole Mokou-is-an-albino thing. Makes sense.

Can't fix the helmet has said it best:

Kaguya and Mokou are lovers.

>>3452446
Fascinating.

>>3452456

YOU BET IT'S FASCINATING

EMOKOU! EMOKOU!

>>3452455

Well, it's only logical; at this point I think it's all but Word of God.

Since in the end, the only peers they'll have are each other. And maybe Eirin.

>>3452184
Thank you.

Wher in canon do Kaguya and Mokou actually interact with one another?

>>3452474

1. Backstory to Imperishable Night

2. Imperishable Night's Extra stage is on Kaguya's demand

3. Bohemian Archive in Japanese Red, bamboo forest fire article.

>>3452474

Mostly the Eientei-related backstory material as far as I recall.

And of course Inaba&Inaba.

I wish I had a little cape orbiting me.

>>3452433

About 100 million years from now. Mokou and Kaguya are living on the brink of existence in a cave somewhere where Japan has long since fused with the Chinese mainland. Alive due to being immortal and all, but not exactly gorging - Kaguya's only bringing home rodents and bulbs, and Mokou's attempt at big game constantly ends in charred meatless bones. They've both long since forgotten Japanese and speak idiosyncratically, having had no contact with other humans for quite some time.

There aren't any other humans left, you see. Thus, their main priority is getting the hell off of mother earth before the next big evolutionary hit strikes.

>>3452493

Who said they ever rotate around her?

Maybe they levitate in place.

That'd be kind of annoying, if they have a set position. It'd suck of she turned around suddenly and someone got a conch shell to the face for it.

>>3452508

But they're in Gensokyo, a phantasm that will last forever.

Also, the Lunarians offered for Kaguya to come home, and she refused. So she could probably eventually take up their offer.

>>3452508

See, I didn't mean that far in the future.

I mean, like, 50-200 years, where they can see the human's descendants and the aged youkai. See how Gensokyo changes around them, while they're the only ones who don't change in the slightest.

>>3452426
Awesome, two responses! You guys ARE paying attention!

>>3452427
I've attributed this to why I like the two.

>>3452435
I'm kinda partial to the "Mokou was an albino" explanation since it would explain the white hair and the red eyes. Also, the fighting experience she's picked up.

>>3452446
Pic related. Albino needs new glasses.

>>3452530

I've been drafting some story ideas for a while revolving around Mokou's experiences before she came to Gensokyo. Remember a few things that ensure a rather interesting story:

1. She was basically exiled/ran away from Japanese society.

2. She couldn't stay in any one place for more than about 10 years--people would notice the fact that she hadn't aged a year beyond ~20.

3. She wandered for almost 1,200 years before coming to Gensokyo.

I can imagine Mokou heading to China, then following the Silk Road to medieval Europe... maybe she made a living as a trader in Venice in the 1200s.

>>3452546
Mokou was Annie Oakley

The Moon and the Hourai Doll is the best doujin ever.

>>3452546
Wandering salesman would be the perfect cover.

>>3452530

Hmm... let us see. Or rather, let us scrye.

Keine is still around, hasn't changed the slightest.
Reimu is dead, has a descendant.
Marisa may be either dead, or turned herself into a magician youkai.
Sakuya is still around, maybe looking "more mature" rather than "older".
Sanae is dead, certainly has a descendant.
Alice is still around.
Genji is still around, though probably not for much longer.
Rinnosuke hasn't changed one bit.
The Scarlet sisters still look like children.
The deva haven't changed.

In short, besides the miko, Marisa and Sakuya, not much has happened.
Come to think of it, the immortals have probably seen quite a few Hakurei miko come and go over the years.

>>3452536

That would explain Mokou's Youkai-like aversion to sunlight.

>>3452558

Download link, since gallery.gensokyo.org is down?

>>3452566

I prefer that Marisa stayed a human and started a line of Kirisame magicians as well.

Also, you're forgetting the "younger" and "older" youkai. How is Tewi acting now that she's even older? Is Cirno still childish, or have a hundred years allowed a Fairy to become something more, etc?
Maybe even alterations on more cosmic levels, like the Yama getting changed out (Shikieiki was "hired" for the position, no reason she can't get "sacked") or Yukari going into a permanent sleep.

Think on more levels! More levels!

>>3452580
Seconding this since the links on the wiki have been down for quite some time.

>>3452584

You have to think in percentages. Being 10% older rarely changes someone much, especially for beings with an indefinite lifespan.

>>3452580
>>3452587

Uploading.

>>3452593

What.

Humans, with a lifespan of 75-90 years, can change drastically in just 2.

But then, I understand it's folly to assume youkai behave like humans.

>>3452603

Absent absent health-related issues (maturing as a kid, old age, etc), most people don't really change much over short periods of time. At least in my experience.

Of course, major experiences can have huge effects (e.g. going to war, etc), but for those cases elapsed time is unrelated.

>>3452626

So force such an altering event into Gensokyo or something.

Due to the heroine's foolishness of Imperishable Night, the Lunarians enact a full-force invasion of Gensokyo, or something.

>>3452597

http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?miwyv4jtwgm

>>3452647

I don't really like the Lunarians. They're not really elaborated on enough in canon to be particularly interesting, and they're basically walking Deus ex Machinae.

Also, moonbitches.

>>3452661

Well you might like them a bit more after Cage in Lunatic Runagate gets translated it is never being translated

>>3452584

Hmm, let's see... scrye.

There could always happen an "unforeseen something" which would put Yukari out of commission for good. But if not, she likely won't change a lot in 100 years - she may have a different agenda, as she's switched those around quite a bit over the years, but physically she'll stay the same.
Ran may have lost a tail.
Chen may have gained a tail, depending on the myth you'd like to follow. If so, she might resemble a young teenager (physically).
Tewi probably looks the same, but could very well be more jaded having had to deal with strangers running around Eientei.
I'd like to think another 50 years would allow Cirno to mature into a yukionna. But most things point to faeries having a limited lifespan and rarely growing larger than children. So not sure.
Youmu/Myon will be a young adult, but mentally middle-aged.

>>3452699
>But most things point to faeries having a limited lifespan

From what I recall fairies are basically immortal; they're very weak but will basically "respawn" when killed, since they're manifestations of nature.

>>3452699

Well Yukari has been described as have been getting sleepier and sleepier as the years wear on (as have old youkai in general).

>>3452715

That's easily explained by the "Yukari experiences the outside world during her dreams" theory.

>>3452715
>>3452726

Also remember that Yukari is at a *minimum* ~1600 years old; for all we know she is 10, 100, 1000 millenia old or more. I doubt that a century means much to her.

>>3452699
Isn't Cirno 40+ years old already?

>>3452711

Read this as well, and not sure what to make of it. Does Touhou make a distinction between Western faeries and yousei, or are they pretty much the same?

>>3452699

And pushing ahead a bit...
Not at this stage in history, but maybe another 100 years later Youmu will bear a heir (father unknown, nobody saw her being pregnant, etc).

>>3452726

Well if you believe science fiction then the world in 200 years will be either FUCKING AWESOME or NIGHTMARELAND or UNINHABITED or INDOLENT DECADENT CYBER-SOCIETY.
She might prefer one to Gensokyo.

>>3452828

Is Keine a long-lived character like a typical youkai? I dunno how this half-human half-beast thing works.

>>3452828
Eirin cosplaying as Japanese Shikigami?

>>3452902

Some fanon have her as such (see: >>3452652) but canon has never mentioned or even hinted at her age, other than the fact that she might have interacted with an older Hieda than Akyu.

>>3452902

Possibly implied by canon, generally assumed by fanon.

>>3453620

There was a thread like that earlier, but not just Kaguya x Mokou. It was a pretty good thread, until it devolved into some shitty discussion about heat, energy, and other faggotry.
