It's that tiny archipelago on the western edge of china about 700 years ago.

Dumbass, Gensokyo is a world next to ours. If it was in our world, I'd be living it up with Remilia and Cirno by now.

In your heart.

It's that tiny archipelago on the western edge of china about 700 years ago.

>>9019713
How the fuck do I get in there?

>>9019718
By clapping your hands, sprinkling fairy dust, and believing hard enough.

above scotland a bit to the left of denmark

you think gensokyo is near venezuela ?

>>9019703

Why the fuck did you use a BR map?

Será una de esas islas chiquitajas que hay entre el índico y el polo sur. Supongo.

>>9019713
But that's where Sniper Island is.

according to canon, isn't Gensokyo within Japan, but separated by a magical barrier so that one cannot physically venture in?

I'm assuming this barrier somehow warps geography and cartography so that when mapping Japan, the longitudes and latitudes curve around the outside of Gensokyo, and that in reality there is an illusion that one is going straight through the missing latitudes and longitudes.

>>9019853
Isn't gensokyo somewhere near Aokigahara? If I recall correctly, in one of the Maribel-Renko CD's one of the stories is about them going there to get to the Hakurei shrine.

Puts the whole portal to gensokyo thing in perspective.

>>9019878
Are you >implying grimdark? Because Gensokyo is grimdark enough already.

I remember the other side of the border being some abandoned shrine in the mountains somewhere, but I don't think it specified where.

>>9019878
so the portal is an Aokigahara?

does that mean that all the people who have committed suicide on /jp/ have end up doing so in vain?

>>9019740
What do you need to read? Obviously you already know the names of every continent and ocean.

>>9019892
Wasn't it specified that people who get lost in some forest might end up by gensokyo by accident?
But maybe that was another story.

>>9019712
rorikon detected

>>9019878
I knew it was true!

>>9019944
>looking chinese touhou ripoff
I don't get it. is this a meme? Aya does not look Chinese.

>>9019878
I vaguely remember a panel in SaBND where it showed the outside world part of the border. There was a road with cars. Are there any near Aokigahara?

Someone post the panel I mean. I know one of you will have it readily cropped.

Gensokyo actually has a well defined real world location. There's a mountain range to the east of lake Suwa that is the confirmed location of the Youkai mountain.

The source is "Cage in a Lunatic Runagate", the Mokou chapter, where she names the youkai mountain as Mt. Yatsugatake. The version of the mountain inside the border has been restored to it's full "taller than Mt. Fuji" size, which means that whole mountain range you currently see is one large mountain inside the border.

That also means the only possible location for the human village would be overlapping an already existing village. This would explain why Rinnosuke was able to "see" the outside world from within his shop in that one chapter of CoLA.

I haven't done any further research in the area, but the only lake that could possibly be large enough to match the description of the misty lake in PMiSS is lake Suwa itself. Except that characters in-universe mention lake Suwa as if it is a separate entity.

What we can extrapolate from this is that either the inside of Gensokyo is VASTLY different from the outside (already semi confirmed by the youkai mountain), or we're working with a fictional version of japan (which doesn't seem likely with all the references made thus far).

Hope someone found this interesting.

>>9019951
I can't remember why I named my images like that.

>>9019890
It isn't grimdark at all. I think it's just mystical and otherworldly.

>>9019878
Found it. In retrospective 53 minutes Renko and Maribel take a train to Tokyo and go to aokigahara.

>>9019713
That is so beautiful.

>>9019958

this was enlightening

>>9019958

You actually had to read all the material again one after the other to put the pieces to together, or something similar, didn't you?
I'm kinda jealous of you.

>>9019958
Great reply! Please write more, it's very interesting!

You should use a portal localed somewhere in Mariana Trench to get there.

Coordinates: 47°9′S 126°43′W in the southern Pacific Ocean

Gensokyo awaits you /jp/...

>>9020479

Satellite images also show nothing but water.

Also, Lovecraft bullshit. And I had a hope for a while.

>>9020503
ok, here are the real coordinates 63° 2° N, 29° 55° W

Can the large hadron collider open a gate to gensokyo ?

i'm going to take flights across the pacific over and over until one of them crash lands me in gensokyo

>>9019713
is that a touhou bitch? I'm here to stay

>>9020895
You need to throw a Nitori Fumo in it and the portal will open.

>>9020895
It already looks like portal, but is it portal to Gensokyo?

m- marry me anon-san

>>9020895
I'd hit it.

with the force of a trilion suns

Right here. You see that door in the left bottom corner? Its a magical door that leads you to the hakurei shrine.

>>9021002
Isn't gate to Gensokyo in our hearts and all we need to do is to activate it with portal and our faith?

>>9021105
Has anyone got to gensokyo with that heart bullshit? Brother i tell you, this is the true gate to gensokyo, you just need some kind of magic in you to open it. magic!=love

>>9021002
Woah, I'm like 30 minutes away from there!

I should really check it out...

the great collider is the only device that can create black holes, the only force similar to yukaris power

so yes, once it produces a black hole and suck our planet, well be in gensokyo

>>9021002
Oh boy, I'm going to Toronto while dressed as a Touhou in a week. Do you think they'll let me in?

>>9021205
What if instead of Gensokyo you will find /jp/ there? It's dangerous.

>>9021221
I don't know, why would that be bad? They might know how to get in too.

Remember that only shut ins deserve to enter Gensokyo.

>>9021265
By the time you get to Gensokyo, it'll be full of fat, sweaty /jp/ers who outnumber the Touhous 50 to 1.

>>9021002
I didnt know Gensokyo was in Toronto. Too bad I still gonna have to cross the american border like a beaner, I hope i can find a job in Gensokyo thought.

I can really take it easy with threads like this one!

It's over the rainbow

The fuck is Oceania?

>>9023272
It's a mythological continent. Just like Atlantis.

>>9021287
cirno no es mexicana, she is so stupid she must be american

>>9019703
what's with the BR map?

>>9019772
holy shit, good job, you should be a 3D designer

congratz man
