OK, let's start with the story of the human child who could hear the voice of flowers.

There are supposed to be 3 great youkai species aren't there? We have nine-tailed foxes, grand onis and? What is the third species?

Before I found out about /jp/ and touhou the only japanese (or asian for that matter) mythology I knew was from the Kamigawa MTG block.

Presumably tengu.

Also, in a fiercely competitive world, think if I had to pick one fox spirit over another I'd go with the one that can do this.

Tengu maybe? They have some serious shit going on, from the little I recall.

Well... that may require lifting the sanctions against borderline /a/ content, and those are there for a reason.

Also, Kuugen isn't really a kyuubi since she's only got one tail. Never quite got how she can be hundreds of years old and still only have one.

Then again, this guy is pretty damn old too and still only has three... or maybe six. Or five. It isn't exactly consistent.

Although in all honesty, if you're interested enough in the guy to notice that, you sure as hell aren't looking at the tails.

To be honest, if you really got to have that nine-tailed proof of quality... there just isn't a whole lot to choose from.

Not even the arguably most famous fox spirit of legend had nine tails - even though nearly every character based on her does!
