If you're following the LP they use it as the map theme of the final gaiden chapter

Oh, thanks for the heads up! I haven't been following the LP since I usually wind up playing the games myself, but I think I was on an early enough patch of FMW4 and it crashed on me and I hadn't picked it up since.

Zun really needs to have Miko tied into the peripheral of every game from now on, TBH.

The Yakuza are all goasts, the robots are immune to goasts though because they have no souls. So the Goast Yakuza have to go call in the Cleaners, ie: Reimu.

Is the Extra Stage Reimu coming in to break the Yakuza's kneecaps because they haven't paid her yet?

Because that's something I could see happening.

Did not expect the game to swerve into a gang war betwene yakuza and robots but I am here for it

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

An uncountable number, to be sure.

The Eagle spirit at least does actually pay her in the ending. With real cash money. They turn the shrine into a tourist trap for Animal Spirits, and Kasen comes in just to dramatically sigh at the camera.

Um... I feel like I should explain things more generally.

There are big four Yakuza families in the Beast World/Animal Realm.

The Kiketsugumi are led by Yachie, who is a dragon-turtle that you can't even imagine going up against. Like, that's her power: to make people lose the will to fight her. She's the cunning type who uses clever schemes to get what she wants. She's kind of the main villain in this game, but you also end up doing exactly what she wants.


The Keigagumi are led by Saki, who's a black pegasus (and Miko's former mount?). She's a musclehead who only respects raw power and those brave enough to use it. She dreams of ruling the Beast World, the Human World, and Hell and fully believes that she can. She's a little oni-like.


The Gouyaku Alliance is led by someone named Toutestu (also known as Taotie, for you mythology buffs), who doesn't show up in the game but gets talked about by Saki in the Extra stage. Toutestu is apparently a selfish bastard whose underlings suffer for it. The Gouyaku Alliance is defined by arrogance and looking down on people so it checks out.

The last of the major Yakuza Families is unnamed and has no presence in the game, but they're defined by subterfuge: traps, poisons, and camouflage.

Anyway, Yachie convinces three of the families to work together to take down Keiki, who's not a Yakuza but is muscling in on their territory and stealing their resources (ie: protecting people from them; Yachie specifically says that all people are resources to her). After Keiki is out of the picture, Saki immediately starts her own war and that's the Extra Stage.

There's also some other stuff regarding who Keiki is exactly and why she's doing what she's doing.

Wait, those torii are over shadow reimus crotch.

Dont people have to pass through torii before entering the grounds of the shrine?

And donations are deposited in her 'mouth'.

Is that image subtly implying reimu will do anything for visitors/donations?

Since all the mangas are ending I have to assume one thing:

The next manga series will be Gang Land featuring the other 2 factions
