I think the more important question is which Touhou would be the annoying atheist who goes around and snidely remarks on all of the religions?

Looking at the screenshot of the mystery boss, I was thinking a hijab. It's about time we had an Islamic Touhou character. I'm sure Zun would appreciate their headgear.

Zun felt something was wrong with Byakuren, but was too drunk to figure it out. It came to him in the middle of the night, jolting him out of his stupor. A hat! He had forgotten to give his Touhou a hat! He raced over to his telephone, and hastily called Alphes. Alphes was working on the art for Touhou 13.5, and Zun knew that he would be able to correct this horrendous mistake. After a few sharp words to the confused illustrator Zun hung up the phone, confidant all would become right in Gensokyo. And so, some weeks later, Alphes sent Hopeless Masquerade's finished sprite sheet to be looked over by his boss. A smile formed on Zun's face as he took a large swig of Kirin.There, perched atop Byakuren's head, was the largest hat in all of Gensokyo. (Also why haven't we gotten any of the Daoist crew? I want to play as Soga.)

Well, I guess we finally got an answer. The Kappa function as Gensokyo's stereotypical internet atheists. Also explains why they all wear the same hat, fedoras must be hard to find in Gensokyo. So we've got all the religions pretty well covered, but you know what this roster is still missing? The Devil.

Alice hasn't shown up yet. Obviously that means she's going to show up in the background of a Makai level, because Shinki will be a playable character. Also while we're at it, Rin Satsuki will be there too. Also Zun will show up at my doorstep and give me a free copy of Hopeless Masqurade and the full version of Double Dealing character. Since we got mad at being spammed with every individual Finnish 4Koma, they haven't been posted at all. I know a lot of you liked them, so here a are few of the most recent ones in a single package (standard Danbooru warning): Drunk Onis Koakuma Sakuya returns as a playable character Miko's new cape And for the rest of you, have something I found:

The Daoists own. One is a spaced out zombie, one is an audaciously evil hermit, one is a supervillian-esque egomaniac (now with a cape to match), one has ghost legs, and one is Futo.

Don't forget that Futo may or may not be the mother of Tojiko (or at least the person Futo was based on was the mother of the person Tojiko was based on, who in turn was the wife of the dude Miko was based on).

KataraniSword posted:It's not often that I wonder if ZUN can surpass the level of drunken insanity that is Imperishable Night. Now that I'm actually sitting down and thinking about the TD crew, however... Oh man, that's nothing. Since the Daoists are based on real-life people, you can bring in all sorts of Historical drama, half of which is legendary anyway (since it happened so far in the past). For instance, did you know the real-life Futo was "Futsuhime" of the Mononobe clan, who was married to Soga no Umako despite the rivalry between the Mononobe Clan and the Soga Clan? Futsuhime was the younger sister of the Mononobe's leader Mononobe no Moriya, who like Umako was an influential courtier with Prince Shotoku's uncle and father (both Emperors of Japan). Umako was able to have his and Futsu's daughters married into positions of prestige,including Tojiko no Iratsume (inspiration for Tojiko, of course) who was married to Prince Shotoku Taishi (who was apparently Miko). Shotoku sought to unify Japan under a single religion, Buddhism (according to Touhou, this was for Miko's own ends as she really practiced Daoism), and was heavily aided by the Soga Clan. Mononobe no Moriya and the Mononobe Clan opposed Buddhism, and rebelled against Shotoku. In the Battle of Shigisan (AKA the "Teibi Incident") Soga no Umako killed Mononobe no Moriya and much of the Mononobe Clan. However, according to legend (AKA truth in Gensokyo) Futsuhime had turned traitor against the Mononobe, and collaborated with her husband Umako against them. She came up with the plot that allowed Umako to murder Moriya. Other historical accounts label Futsuhime as the wife of Emperor Sushun, the uncle of Prince Shotoku. Emperor Sushun was rumored to have been assassinated on the orders of Soga no Umako, who was worried the Emperor would turn against him. Oh, and the consort of Sushun was Umako's daughter and Tojiko's sister. In any case, Sushun was succeeded by Empress Suiko, during whose reign Prince Shotoku served as Prince Regent About 20 years after the deaths of Soga no Umako and Prince Shotoku, The Soga Clan had grown strong enough that they threatened the power of the reigning Emperor. In response, Nakatomi no Kamatari conspired with the then current Crown Prince to kill the heir to the Soga line. The Nakatomi Clan had earlier allied with the Mononobe Clan to stop the spread of Buddhism, but had been defeated alongside Mononobe no Moriya by Soga no Umako. Kamatari was successful in killing the Soga heir, and the clan's leader, Soga no Emishi committed suicide soon after by setting his palace on fire. The clan's power was broken up and their followers scattered and killed. This allowed the Emperor to centralize power in the Imperial Court. As thanks for Nakatomi no Kamatari's help, the Emperor gave him a new Clan name: Fujiwara. It was said the the newly christened Fujiwara no Kamatari was killed by a bolt of lighting, as part of a curse laid down by the Soga clan. The Touhou character Tojiko, as I'm sure you remember, uses thunderbolt danmaku. Kamatari was succeeded by his son, Fujiwara no Fuhito, who is speculated to be who the father of (you guessed it) Fujiwara no Mokou is based on. TL;DR summary: Futo had her husband kill her brother who shared Suwako's namesake. Later, Tojiko murdered Mokou's grandfather out of revenge. The Daoists may be the most metal in Gensokyo, but I doubt they're the most popular.

The results of the 2014 popularity poll have been released. As expected, The Shrine Maiden of Paradise leads the pack. The most interesting one in the top ten is Koishi, who jumped about ten spots to land in number three. Both Marisa and Flandre improved their ranking, while Remilia slipped backwards. Also Septette for a Dead Princess won the music poll, big deal.
