Hello, /jp/.

I've just recently been getting into Touhou lately. Can anyone explain why all the Cirno fan art I find has her brandishing a watermelon sword? I feel like I'm missing out on the joke.

I'm not sure if that was just cooked up by fans. Have some more melon sword.

It's because the Advent Cirno doujin series is so popular in Japan. Frozen watermelon on a stick is a really great snack to cool down in summer.

Cirno uses them in the relatively popular doujin series Advent Cirno by One Night Stand, a cross between Final Fantasy 7 and Touhou project (A niche Curtain Fire Shooting game that has gained in popularity in some circles).

If that was true, in SWR or any other Touhou fighting game made by the same guys, I'd walk, swim, fly, whatever, to Japan just to buy that.

She uses the watermelon sword to fight niggers, that's why there are no black people in gensoko.

They are just too mesmerized by the sword to run away, otherwise they'd be too fast to catch!
