Just how many mistakes have you suffered on the way here?

An uncountable number, to be sure.

Reimu dies, Hakurei line's over, Gensoukyo is finished.

Yukari really should've set up that fuckin' dating pool.

There's no indication that the Hakureis are hereditary, and in fact when Reimu goes missing at the end of SSiB, Aya mentions the need to "find" a new shrine maiden. Given that she has the same name as the Hakurei shrine, it seems more likely that they just find (or make) an orphan with the appropriate talents and have her be "adopted" by the shrine, imo.

I thought the Hakurei orbs only worked for those in the bloodline?

Seems like that info comes from the PC-98 games, which makes it dubious at best. The fairies manga establishes that the orbs are go-shintai, getting their power from the Hakurei god. They can explode youkai while just laying on the ground if a youkai tried to touch them.

Now that I think about it, I wonder if Mamizou is going to save the day somehow, since iirc she's the only other one that started to piece any of this oni stuff together. Or it could just be Yukari again.

Ok I ended up 1ccing HSoB on my first attempt that got past stage 1 not crashing into random faeries. Was loving around with colors/shots and was on Sakuya/Aqua on that run.

What's the best shot type to just do stuff with in that game? I feel like Reimu is particularly weak, but is there a color that fixes that issue? I found Sakuya generally pretty good but I don't know how much I gained from going aqua at all. From what I can really tell green is basically unplayable, and of the various shot types that all sort of amount to "you do more damage" I have no idea how they compare relative to each other.

Also Set remains the absolute coolest thing about that game and it's refreshing to see the opinion of everyone who uploads their Lunatic 1ccs to Youtube say Set owns.

Late but Reimu Yellow is generally the easiest to clear the game with because of very generous deathbomb window, and Yellow giving you lots of bombs. It's a little underpowered yeah but it's not a huge deal; you can get used to it anyhow.

The ultimate investigative duo of Komachi and Tenshi are already on the way to save the day. They’ll sort this mess out.

The next WaHH chapter would be in April, right? if this storyline actually sets up the game that's getting a demo in May then that would be good as hell. I think HSiFS had a similar prologue chapter?

Also worth noting that the FS Reimu wanted to get involved in a romance.

I thought I left a comment akin to this but I must have erased it on accident, but yeah I think this is probably why it's so hard to pin down how she sounds.
The other characters are fairly standard regardless of what's going on but Reimu reflects the tone of the events more than anything.


Overall I trend more towards THE CRIMSON SLASHER mixed with Bougetshou but hell if I could relate to you what that sounds like. And I definitely affect the pitch when I read her in other contexts so that makes it harder to pin down.

I think it’s just the classic game trope of making the main playable character more of an Everyman, to be more relatable to wider variety of players. As such, I imagine Reimu with fairly neutral vocal characteristics.

Around ESD I could imagine her sounding neutral, but by MoF I've always imagined her with having this steadily increasing 'for gently caress's sake' undertone to her.

I missed the survey but I think the number one thing to capture in Reimu's voice comes down to one word. Surly. Reimu is like an overworked middle aged teamster who has reincarnated as a shrine maiden.
