Lets discuss the human village!

What canon information has ZUN given about it?

>> No.9730816

>>9730800
It's name is the human village.

So...the humans don't have a leader? Miko wanted to take over, but they said they didn't need a leader, so...

>> No.9730889

Something interesting:

>Dragon (竜 or 龍, both pronounced ryū) is said to be the highest-order god of Gensokyo. According to Perfect Memento, he lives anywhere and he looks like a serpent with hands and horns. He was also said to be last seen during the Creation of the Great Hakurei Barrier.

>Both Humans and Youkai worship him, due to his capability of creating and destroying anything.

>The eyes of the Dragon's statue in the Human Village are said to predict the weather. To an extent, this is true, especially in regards to the temperaments of Scarlet Weather Rhapsody.

>> No.9730980

Are youkai allowed to freely run in the human village?

Koishi,Yuuka,Kasen,Seiga,Shou and Kogasa all have been there

Yeah, youkai are welcome int he village. So long as they don't cause trouble.

Dragons are generally top of the mythological food chain. Hell, sometimes they outrank gods.

>> No.9731051

>>9731022
Shinto has gods for anything. A god for a bridge does not command the same power as the sun goddess, in this case a dragon god outranks everyone in Gensokyo, but it would be no match for a deity being fed lots of faith.

>> No.9731055

God and diety mean the same thing, though.

They are welcome so long as they understand human men are for human women.

You don't actually believe that youkai slip into men's bedrooms at night and assault, them, right? That's soooooo medieval.

Eating people is causing trouble.

They are not welcome if they eat people.

To bad the human men don't understand that!

>>9731051
But the dragon god IS a deity being fed lots of faith.

>> No.9731106

>>9731088
They would probably still be welcome if they fucked somebody, though. The question is who would go for it? I do not see any natives trying. Only an outsider, and there are not many of those.

>>9731096
I also think he misunderstood me a little. I was saying that since normal dragons can beat out gods in some western mythologies, it should not be too surprising that a dragon god could beat out gods based on eastern mythology and religion, where beating up gods is a show of manliness instead of heresy.

>> No.9731100

>>9731088
Guess I can't argue with that.

>> No.9731108

So bad youkai arn't welcome in the village. Ok, makes sense. But how is that enforced?
What are the village's defenses like? Is it just Keine, or do they maintain some youkai hunters?

>> No.9731111

>>9731106
I don't see anyone trying on the youkai side, either.

But maybe I'm wrong Gensokyo is a den of sluts.

>> No.9731114

>>9731111
No, that was why I said I do not see the natives trying, not that I do not see the natives accepting. I meant that the other party would probably have to bring the topic up.

It is not something you are supposed to hear about, but something you are supposed to think about. Besides, I would be reluctant on how many specifics ZUN relays, because I question his understanding of people.

Why do you dislike the image so much?

It's badly drawn and uses a horrible character (Yukari would be better for that particular image)

>> No.9731213

>>9731209
Yukari is overrated and annoying. I feel that Tewi was a much better pick for the message. For one, she is a trickster, and they tend to skirt the fourth wall like that.

>> No.9731215

>>9731209
Yukari in an alternate color or something wouldn't be near as impactful as black Tewi. Tewi gets the message across far better than Yukari ever could.

>>9731213
Actually, to add on to this, Yukari gives me a feeling of someone who tries to act distant and mysterious, who tries to act like they know everything, because they are insecure and rather self-conscious. She seems, to me, like she wants to seem as valuable and in control as possible. She clearly knows plenty of stuff, and it would be hard not to being around as long as she has, but after some point I think it is just an illusion, a show she puts on. She wants to seem lazy and unmotivated so people are surprised by how strong she is and what she knows. Am I the only one?

facts about the human village:

-village slut is sanae
-village idiot is cirno
-villiage teacher is keine
-villiage shrine maiden is Reimu
-there are only men in the village and all of them are horny and like rape young girls.

>> No.9732244

>>9731108
Someone said before that the people in the village are descendants of human sorcerers and human youkai hunters, so they are probably pretty tough on their own.

They do seem to be suspicious of some Youkai though, like Reisen.
