What do you guys actually like about Mima
I enjoy the mature & powerful woman archetype and I also find a lot of her dialogue in pc98 very charming.

I value the kind of character she is
She has been a playable character, and unlike most if not all of them (Besides Yuuka, mostly), you can't really argue she's on the good side. Her playful nature becomes more ambiguous & compelling to follow than, say, Marisa's. She, unlike many of the playable characters we've had since then, doesn't have anyone above her, which in my opinion greatly improves the odds for hints of character growth. That, along with carrying a philosophy of going to the incident not to solve it, but just to see what's going on, maybe be mischevious. This is something that's only really achieved with, again, Marisa these days, and it's arguable to some extent and the nature of the character plays a more significant part in such a scenario as opposed to the one where you're investigating or solving the incident, where said incident is the center stage. Marisa's growth & character interactions are completely different than Mima's, being more related to the discoveries she's made throughout the incident. Mima is not that. Mima sometimes seeks mischief, Mima sometimes seek power, whether it be relating to her species like when she wishes for eternal night in PoDD, or when she ponders about becoming a God in MS.
All that to say Mima brings a lot that's different to Touhou in terms of playable character. I think while it's nice to keep your expectations grounded, the Touhou community has conditioned itself to only have faith in Stage 5 characters being playable, if not less, and most of these characters, while carrying many quirks that make them loveable, often share that idea of having a master, who may or may not have been the reason why they're here in the first place. I don't think it's so compelling that it should be all we are left with besides the usual 2.
Also she's a really solid shot in Mystic Square so it helps making her even more likeable.

Her design is probably the most divergent of the touhous and I like her mischievous, self-serving yet maternal aura.

I think her best chance would be the 20th game

[Anonymous No.]

>>40224839
the 20th game will be the last game. Mima wil come back and Yuka will destroy Gensokyo. The only who will survive gonna be Eirin, Kaguya and Mokou. But all they gonna be arrested by the lunarians.
at the end it will be reveladed that all the games are an ilusion of Alice, who is a austistic child

With a remaster of the final MS stage theme as the final theme

would be pretty cool and circular.

Shinkifags, do you want her back as a boss or as a playable character for the first time?

[Anonymous No.]

>playable character
not a chance when Alice herself barely exist anymore, i just want to see her

[Anonymous No.]

>>40228930
I'm fine with either, though like the other anon I doubt she'd be playable. My copium scenario is she shows up with Alice again.

I just don't see it happening, she only showed up in one of the games vs Mima showing in 4 of 5.
Also Makai showing up again without her was a big blow.

>Also Makai showing up again without her was a big blow.
Yeah that sucked, though at least Byakuren's spell card and the Makai fairies referenced her. Which technically is about as much as Mima has gotten within the actual games funnily enough.

Imagine being obsessed with an unimportant and mostly already forgotten video game character of some old ass game made by a japanese alcoholic
