If you keep insisting on calling Hong Meiling "China", then you must call Komachi "Slackmeister".
Agreed?

Actually, judging from previous experience there's a very high chance that they actually might. Simply because it's a highly unlikely course of events.
The universe has a tendency to oppose logical outcomes.

It was a dragon killing scene in Pyramids I think. There was this party, in it were a hero and a statistician and others I forgot. They were supposed to kill a dragon but of course had no chance with what they had. So one of them asks the statistician "what are our chances?" and he replies some random odds. They keep on doing stuff to lower the odds like shooting against the wind, shooting blindfolded, on one leg etc until the odds are 1 to 1 million

Then they one shot the dragon

It pisses me off when they call her "ferryman" when she is clearly not a man. What's wrong with the word "ferrymaiden"?

For one, Slackmeister definitely isn't a maiden.

I'm all for feminism but you should really pick your battles and consider the massive victory that she even has the job at all.

Judging by that Image, we should call her Misty.

How does death work in Gensokyo anyway?

Komachi takes you across the river.
Yabba Dabba Doo judges if you go to heaven or hell.
In heaven, you hang out with Chiquita Dragonforce.
In hell, Wendy gives you wheelbarrow rides.

That's old hell. And I don't think anyone is really 100% sure about all the shit that can happen after death.

>> No.3326002

>>3325986
Something like that, but Komachi herself is a sort of judge. You get money in the afterlife based off how many people cared about you/how many good deeds you did, or some such. If you don't have enough money, Komachi kicks you off halfway.

I wasn't thinking of it from the feminist angle, but rather the "which sounds sexier" angle.

What can you even buy with that money?

Is it even standard Gensokyo currency?

>> No.3326023

You can buy a boatride.

and I think standard Gensokyo currency is Yen, but they probably got cut off from japan early enough that bartering is still pretty wide spread.

Danmaku, I guess.
