Holy shit, I thought canon wasn't suppose to be scary. That's some grimdark simmering under the layers.

Gensokyo has a dark streak running through it, it just isn't the focus of the series. Think of it like Alice's Adventures in Wonderland or Grimm's Fairy Tales. Plenty dark already, but faggots keep insisting on making OMG SO DARK versions that completely miss the subtlety and point of the originals.

ZUN was probably too drunk to remember writing that line. Same with all other Touhou "canon"

Don't take it so seriously

One day ZUN's going to sober up and someone's going to tell him that he spent the last 16 years making a series of computer games that became a global phenomenon. I wonder what that must be like.

There is plenty of dark themes in Touhou.

In the grim darkness of Gensokyo, there is only danmaku.

I wish ZUN would go back to his PC-98 style. Those were really cute.

Agreed. His drawings totally worked as low-resolution pixel art.

Except for Genji. Someone pointed out how creepy he looked, and now he frightens me.

You fucking pansy, those words are uttered all the time.
