As soon as you see something, you already start to intellectualize it. As soon as you intellectualize something, it is no longer what you saw.

So, following from that, perfect communication is impossible because the thought has already been intellectualized and tainted by the transformation from pure object to concept.

Doesn't that argument in its extreme form lead to solipsism though?

Also consider that what you saw is different from what exists. Exactly how much your observations differ from reality is impossible for you to determine.

Solipsism because private languages render communication impossible, thus lending itself to the possibility that there is no communication (i.e. only the self exists).

That's what I mean when I say the extreme form might lead to solipsistic thoughts.

Touhous are composed from the workings of the brain, pieced together from what the eye perceives. A simple example of what I mean is that we can only see a certain very small range of light wavelengths, so we only see the thing in question in a certain way, Touhou or not.
