Do any Touhou characters speak English?

I don't know Japanese too well. If none of them know English how will I talk to them when I reach Gensokyo? ;_;

>> No.2615008

Oh how correct you are Marisa.

Yukari, Moriya shrine bitches, probably SDM crew

Anyone who studies magic probably does.

Wouldn't Remilia be more likely to speak French, if not one of the East European languages?

>> No.2615965

Only if you have an english patch.

I know the universal language of music.

Yes, because when I think arcane magic, I think english. Makes perfect sense.

More likely Italian. Sakuya would speak French. Patchy English. And Meiling Chinese.

God, Gensokyo is full of wops.

I can speak Latin; what are the chances I'll be able to chat with the people in the SDM?

>> No.2617006

I'd imagine someone called "Alice Margatroid" would be likely to speak english, just a guess though.

>> No.2617061

If Remilia isn't talking out her ass about being a descent of Vlad Tepes I'd think the usual household language would be Romanian.

To find the answer to this question I turn to that great fount of knowledge, Japanese Walfas fanart.

I would think that Alice would have run into English before at least if not already know it. Or am I reading into her song title a bit much.

Patchy, Remi, Yukari, the Moriya shrine girl, and Rinnosuke would likely know it.

>> No.2617203

Actually, now that I think about it, Wallachia (Vlad Tepes' kingdom) and Bucharest are both in Romania.

Go phone CERN, they've built the large hardon collider in the wrong spot.

When I last visited Bucharest, I never had problems finding people who spoke English (at some level or another). Nice place too, I kind of want to go back.

>> No.2617298

>>2617203
Yeah, but SDM are canonically emigrants. You can't emigrate to your own country. Therefore Gensokyo is outside Romania.

>> No.2617305

My vote is that Alice possibly does, Akyuu probably does, Patchouli might because of how damn learned she is, Remilia might also but the chance is smaller, same for Sakuya. Sikieiki probably does too, if only to help in her duties. You never know!

Oh, and Yukari probably does just because she's f'ing Yukari.

>> No.2617326

>>2617305
Depends WHEN the SDM migrated. 200 years ago they would have known French, 20 years ago they would know English. Both are pretty much givens.

>> No.2617336

Yukari likely set in motion the events that caused English to come about. She is the lord of change. All hail the true form of Tzeentch.

All spiritual beings communicate through directly expressed feelings, not language. Think a thought to yourself without using any words -that's what it feels like. Expressed feelings are sometimes seen as bursts of magic. This is the case with Lilly White, who gives up dialog for MORE BULLETS.

>> No.2617620

So if they all speak different languages, how the fuck are they communicating with each other? And why haven't they killed each other yet?
