Was 3:30 AM and I saw a silly meme about this and went looking for the context, now it's 5:00 AM, I've been crying for the last 15 minutes and don't know how I'm gonna go to sleep now
I saw the meme, found this, read one comment, and said "it can't be that sad" my family has been asking me if I'm okay because of my eyes red because of crying
Alr boys, I’m going in, wish me luck Update: I could have done literally anything else and it would have been infinitely less sad than this, I’ll be off to cry now
This is one of those things you say "can't be that bad" "won't drop even a tear" to then become a living fountain, this was horribly beautiful, I just can't stop crying
I thought this was going to be a cute slice of life. Nothing could have prepared me for the buckets of tears I cried in the last few episodes. Sadder than any anime or manga I ever watched/read.
My Touhou Journey started on Memes and Muse Dash, followed by Luna Nights, it then took me to Lost Word... and then I came here. And now I just wanna cry. Such a beautiful story.
And several years later Reimu and Rumia will meet again when the red mist arrives. This was very enjoyable to watch and it actually made me feel something, Reimu and Rumia initial friendship in the beginning was great, a young Marisa was adorable to see, and the ending really got me as pretty much since Yukari erased Reimu's memory she never got to know who her mother was. Pretty deep stuff and great job translating this.
Now that I have read some comments I'm not too sure if I want to watch this.... I'm afraid that I might flood my house with tears ;w; Edit : Send help.... I'm drowning in my own tears ;w;;w;;w; Edit 2 : I watched the sequel, I can't take it anymore... Haven't cried so much in a long time ;w;
it's a common, cheap trick to use cuteness and wholesomeness to set up something negative later and make it have a stronger effect. better question is why? it would have been just as good without the bittersweetness and despair, probably better. so why not make it that way? i'm guessing it's to set up the sequel to go cute -> sad again, and then use that amplified sadness to set up some kind of "everything is better and brighter now" sort of ending.
Wow... It was just... Beautiful... I know Touhou since third or four years now, and I didn't even suspected that some masterpieces like this does existed... And even if it's not canon, I'll never see Rumia, Reimu and Yukari from the same way in the games... It litteraly changed my mind about the entire universe of Gensokyo... All hail Touhou... All hail Zun!!!
I Watched this with a friend about a month ago, Near the end I had to stop myself from crying because my friend was just in tears and I wanted to comfort him, After we were done he kept going on about how much I meant to him. It was honestly a beautiful moment. A Touhou Fan-work somehow managed to strengthen my Friendship (Cringe as all hell reading that out loud, I know...) But it Makes me not regret joining this Fandom one bit.
now THIS is good storytelling. not many modern films/stories/etc. have even half of the dedication was put here, i rate this a 10/10 i need to ignore the 2-3 plotholes since this is what many stories should aspire to be.
Alright, I thought I would share my thoughts on this masterpiece of a story. While I began hating the mother after how she had treated Rumia, at the same time I also began to understand why she had to kill Rumia in order to protect Reimu. Thankfully it isn't that kind where the 'protagonist' had to kill the 'antagonist' just for story progression or feels. The creator knew how to get us to sympathise with both the characters in this story without giving any sort of biasness. Furthurmore, they knew how to pace out the story without it feeling too rushed or forced. The number of wholesome episodes to get us into the minds and lives of the characters were perfect, not too much nor too less. And at the very end, a swift punch to the gut delivered via a dark plot twist ended the happy feels we felt and replaced with other emotions. Whether it was the art style or the tension in-between dialogue, the creator knew how to mess with emotions. In other words, while I am sure this has been said before, this fan-story is truly brilliant on the moral and heart-wrenching scale. Kinda funny how we were told to find our way of life and never let go of happiness, but I'm sure all our happiness were ripped right off after this video
I'm not normally a very emotional person. _Never_ before has _any_ media, physical or digital, made me shed even a single tear, not even once. And yet here I am, completely broken by this one little video. Tear after tear rolling down my face, feeling the mixture of pure melancholy and bittersweet catharsis I've felt only once in my life prior, in the aftermath of a personal and highly painful event. Had anyone told me I'd feel this way over a youtube video, and about fictional characters no less, I'd have scoffed, rolled my eyes, and told you that you're some mixure of delusional, lying, and greatly exaggerating. And yet, Here I am; Thank you for perfection.
I watched all the sad anime people talk about, you know, the Your Lie in April's, the Angel Beats and what not. Got to the ending and felt indifferent honestly. But this? This made me cry. Like a bitch. God damn I need a breather
@@WhiteWhistleBondrewd I just didn't, ya know. Same with Anohana. My expectations were too high I guess. I still enjoyed them, don't get me wrong, but they didn't really hit me that hard. Most of the deaths in JoJo hit me way harder than they did honestly
B-blast it all, I knew what was coming, and even so... Even so... Now it's raining inside, and I can't make it stop. Wh-what? N-no, it's raining. It must be raining. ;w; The tale of a Tsundere Youkai of Darkness, and a tough-as-nails Miko with a hidden heart of gold. Truly, this is one of the most moving pieces of fanon that has arisen from this series. Now then, if you'll excuse me, I-I think I need to go lay down for a while. *Raining intensifies*

Well, it's 2023, can't believe it was more than 10 years ago that this was uploaded, only knew touhou music, never touched the game, the stories and symbolism in touhou is interesting, and am invested to check them out, been knowing this piece of art from memes and hearsays, never experiencing the while thing, goddamn this was rightfully heartwrenching and beautifully made. Everytime something sad happens whether in real life or fiction, i can feel sadness fully but seldom tears, it's just not coming out. But that moment in the end where Rumia is slowly realizing the situation while the forgotten miko was giving her heartfelt eulogy, tears welled up, but still not dropping. But GODDAMN did my heart felt burning up to the point of making tears, even knowing what was going to happen way before. Just like what Rumia said, "it was so real". That's what makes it so emotional. And am glad to have experienced this rollercoaster, i deem this a valuable memory to behold, may anyone who watches this masterpiece earn compassion and happiness, just like they both did at the end.
This is even sadder when you know that despite everything, Rumia never found happiness again. Rumia ends up fighting Reimu just to be swallowed by the sands of time, and forced to join Rin satsuki in the lands of those who have been forgotten. May she rest in piece.
This is my first time that I stayed for almost 2 hours on someone's vid (although I join youtube about 3 years ago). Thank you for uploading this video, I enjoy it very much
I have seen many things that make others cry but they didn't work for me but lately i was feeling even more horrible than usual and i finally decided to watch this to the end. This was the first thing and probably the last that made me cry so much. Honestly i would prefer to stop watching midway and never know what happens later but this was just so beautiful.
I am currently 20 minutes in. Ive heard about how insanely sad this ends and i genuinely dont see how, this is too adotable and wholesome and that observation is exactly what has me mortified for what i have in store Edit: i wasnt ready
I cried the last 30 minutes constantly... I was crying so hard that I had trouble breathing. Whoever made this, I love you. I also love Rumia, Mature Rumia.
Truly a masterpiece. Being a newer fan to Touhou, i wasn't sure if i could understand this, but to my surprise, i did. Still, i am 10 years late, but it still was something to really not miss out on. I am proud to be in this community now, as it doesn't dissapoint. If i could give this an award, i would, but sadly RUclips won't let us do that. This was really an experience, and i would want to forget it just to rewatch it. And what actually surprised me, was that the comments weren't lying. I usually am not sensitive, having only shed a single tear at Omori's ending (no really, what's wrong with me?), but this? I really did cry my eyes out. This is why i love the Internet, it always has experiences like these that are unforgettable (and unregrettable!). Sorry if this comment was really long, I don't usually comment, but this time i felt the need to, haha!
I was recommend a post about this on RUclips. And I'm glad to have seen the full thing. I've enjoyed every second of it, even if I don't know anything about Touhou and its characters in general. And as a result has had me wanting more Touhou in my life, like any other person watching this who is new or familiar with Touhou.
I've heard that this story was sad and thought it was overrated like most sad story anime's but since it was Touhou maybe I'd give it a shot I went from "hahaha little Reimu eating watermelon" to literal tears flowing from my eyes
Alright. I just watched this going in originally thinking it’d be like a funny skit comic, figured out in the beginning what it was about and anticipated the fall because I know about Rumia from the game. Every moment she said I’m hungry I mini panicked and wondered if that was when it would happen. When it did eventually happen, I actually shed around 7 tears, and only half can be attributed to yawning tears of exhaustion because I started this at around 3 AM and it’s now 5. For me, it takes a lot to make me shed tears, and even just to get my eyes moist and teary from emotion alone. I have a baseline emotional state of extreme apathy, and it can ebb and flow and change, but generally the more it changes, the more difficult it is to reach a state of greater emotional excitement. That fact that this actually got to me and made me genuinely emotional and care for this story says a lot about how compelling it is, and I love it when things manage to do that. The only way this could be better is if it were a legitimate movie, and I would totally watch that. This is really good, and I have nothing but respect for the author who wrote this. They are amazing.
That was more sadness than I was ready for. Excuse me while I go and watch the first 30 minutes over and over to go back to happier times for this story.
I didn't know this was gonna be like... 2 hours long. Gosh who does Reimu remind me of? Ponyo? Her tiny design gives off serious Ponyo vibes. The big eyes, simplistic design, and often unreal expressions (like when she's eating that watermelon in the beginning.)
That ending was so... the music and fanart really added to the charm but the story... I actually shed a few tears in the end. Don't get me wrong, I'm a dense Mofo when it comes towards witnessing sad fictitious stories and such but, when you take in all those precious moments between the characters it really does get to ya. Like, I knew it was gonna get a bit sad and morbid but WOW! I don't wanna spoil anything but this stuff really gets twisted and emotional at the end.
Damn, that ending was quite devastating... Never cried this much over a work of fiction. Even Stone Ocean's ending didn't turn me that much into a sobbing mess as this honestly.
im often sad yet find it difficult to cry. this let me bawl my eyes out and that was something i really need. osana reimu went straight for my soul and is probably one of, or perhaps, the best story ive ever heard from any genre or medium.
I came at 1AM to have a fun time ... now it's almost 3AM and my bed sheets are wet due to my constant crying. But now, being serious. This fanfiction is a beauty that overflows with love and passion from its creators. Creations like this one made by Touhou fans made me want to join this world 2 years ago. There is so much content, and every day you can find new things. Today was Little Reimu and tomorrow it will be another jewel that will make me fall deeper in love with this project. well ... I wish you happiness. As for myself, I will continue crying until I fall asleep. best regards
this feels like getting tied up to a tree and being forced to watch/read a sad manga like this(and Omoito) you don't know what's about to happen, but you know it's gonna be bad, that's why you want to leave before it even happens, but you cant
I saw an image of a happy little girl and a link to this video saying "you're gonna cry your eyes out!" And I was 20 minutes in thinking they were full of it.... but the ending... I have to admit they were right.
For be a Touhou fan, im not that ppl that watch fanficts or fanmade mangas, only things that follow the canon line, but this, this one made me cry, not only for put "The Eternal Steam Engine" in the most sad momment, was because is beatiful, i really will keep this day like the most emotional day for me with an Touhou video. Just amazing...
The fact miko had a predator and a jason vorhees mask, implies she beat them with a stick and godamn did chapters 7 and 8 punch me like a jackhammer right in the feels and miko's death made it even worse Edit: i cried all the way through 7 and 8 just so yall know
We need to talk about this more. Story is a 10/10 inducing a variety of emotions in less than 2 hours total Artwork is very amazing and colourful which shows the effort made into this. This work is undeniably a top tier Touhou fanwork
This is the first thing in a looooonnnggg time that actually made me cry. It's was so happy and beautiful but also very sad DX Thanks for uploading, I really enjoyed a lot :D
I dont cry for The ending of sad movies The ending of a sad game The death of someone in media A book without closure Pain The ending of any anime But this masterpiece, its scary how it can so easily move the human heart into sadness.
What really gets me is that image of Reimu crying at the end, right before Yukari arrives. It hurts to see little Reimu cry so much there, I can't put it in words, I just cry every time I see that.
I dont know how to describe the sadness i feel right now, this truly a masterpiece, im crying while writng this comment. Ahhh I wish Reimu's mom ws alive and Rumia had her memories back. Its cant be end like thiss…
Incredible. Truly no words. This was the video that broke me and made me go into full on sobbing. I haven’t seen or heard of anything like this, and this may be the first time i resonate with a character so much. Im not even finished with it, im only around an hour in and Ive already bawled my eyes out. This story is so touching and it speaks to me in a way nothing else ever could. Astonishing.
Was watching some of the Scarlet Devil Koakuma past letter english sub, but got to the end of what was availiable, and had seen this a few times in the recomeneded videos section on most of em and despite the length and it being 7am i caved and decided to watch it and lo and behold it got me watching the whole thing in one sitting till 9am and it got me choking and slightly tearing up. Thanks for posting this here all those years ago and thanks and a great job to those who both drew and wrote this and those who did the english translation for it.
im gonna see if i actually cry, ill edit this later Update 1 : woah wriggling nightbug reference, epic Update 2 : sobbing Update 3 : OH MY GOD RUMIA NO
despite the comments telling me that i would be a sobbing mess at the end of this, i continued, thinking i'm gonna go through this comic without crying, like i usually do with serieses that i watch i've been bested. three hours. i cannot stop thinking about this comic. it took over my emotions. it's genuinely that good. i can never see rumia and reimu the same again. may that be a bad thing nor a good thing, i have newfound appreciation for rumia, reimu, and all other characters that may seem simple by the surface. all thanks to this comic a genuine heartfelt thank you
Can't believe I've put this off for nearly a decade. Then again, I'm somehow glad I did... After so many years, I'm more well-versed with the characters; The impact that this story left was far greater than I anticipated. No lie, I had to go through a small handful of tissues by the end. Didn't expect to find a quote within this which resonated with me, the way that it did. My gratitude to the creators as well translators. I'm happy to finally having watched this. ~⚫

How can something start out so wholesome and happy end so sad and a little depressing? How!?
Watch requiem for a dream and you will find out...
The power of Joyful
it's a common, cheap trick to use cuteness and wholesomeness to set up something negative later and make it have a stronger effect.
better question is why?
it would have been just as good without the bittersweetness and despair, probably better. so why not make it that way? i'm guessing it's to set up the sequel to go cute -> sad again, and then use that amplified sadness to set up some kind of "everything is better and brighter now" sort of ending.

One of the best Touhou fanworks imo. I'd say the story is pretty much better than most films/anime about drama but that's just my opinion.
I only noticed one plot hole where youmu was depicted significantly younger than she actually would've been, since she's about 60 by PCB
@@Arbys_Enjoyer the cherry blossoms are every 60 years it only means that Youmu wasn't older than 60 in pcb

@@flamesredinconito6474 I suppressed my tears, and I didn't cry. But my heart is almost breaking, I wanna cry so much.
Alright, I thought I would share my thoughts on this masterpiece of a story.
While I began hating the mother after how she had treated Rumia, at the same time I also began to understand why she had to kill Rumia in order to protect Reimu. Thankfully it isn't that kind where the 'protagonist' had to kill the 'antagonist' just for story progression or feels. The creator knew how to get us to sympathise with both the characters in this story without giving any sort of biasness.
Furthurmore, they knew how to pace out the story without it feeling too rushed or forced. The number of wholesome episodes to get us into the minds and lives of the characters were perfect, not too much nor too less. And at the very end, a swift punch to the gut delivered via a dark plot twist ended the happy feels we felt and replaced with other emotions. Whether it was the art style or the tension in-between dialogue, the creator knew how to mess with emotions.
In other words, while I am sure this has been said before, this fan-story is truly brilliant on the moral and heart-wrenching scale.
Kinda funny how we were told to find our way of life and never let go of happiness, but I'm sure all our happiness were ripped right off after this video
Bro look at this story muncher yapper
Everyone crying at the end and I’m crying during the whole thing because of this walking ray of sunshine called Reimu
Good job touhou fans, you have made me cry for the first time in actual years
This is...The absolute BEST fan fiction I have ever seen.
Oh the feels...so many feels.... T^T
This deserves a movie adaptation, even 10 years later.
I'm not normally a very emotional person. _Never_ before has _any_ media, physical or digital, made me shed even a single tear, not even once.
And yet here I am, completely broken by this one little video. Tear after tear rolling down my face, feeling the mixture of pure melancholy and bittersweet catharsis I've felt only once in my life prior, in the aftermath of a personal and highly painful event.
Had anyone told me I'd feel this way over a youtube video, and about fictional characters no less, I'd have scoffed, rolled my eyes, and told you that you're some mixure of delusional, lying, and greatly exaggerating.
And yet,
Here I am;
Thank you for perfection.
I watched all the sad anime people talk about, you know, the Your Lie in April's, the Angel Beats and what not. Got to the ending and felt indifferent honestly. But this? This made me cry. Like a bitch. God damn I need a breather
finally, Kira took a break from all the murdering
What the hell? How did you not cry after watching Angel Beats?
@@WhiteWhistleBondrewd I just didn't, ya know. Same with Anohana. My expectations were too high I guess. I still enjoyed them, don't get me wrong, but they didn't really hit me that hard. Most of the deaths in JoJo hit me way harder than they did honestly
@@hayato1886 hmm, how about plastic memories?
@@WhiteWhistleBondrewd I cried at Episode 9 but not the ending part. It felt rushed in my opinion...
B-blast it all, I knew what was coming, and even so... Even so... Now it's raining inside, and I can't make it stop.
Wh-what? N-no, it's raining. It must be raining. ;w;
The tale of a Tsundere Youkai of Darkness, and a tough-as-nails Miko with a hidden heart of gold. Truly, this is one of the most moving pieces of fanon that has arisen from this series.
Now then, if you'll excuse me, I-I think I need to go lay down for a while. *Raining intensifies*
The last scene when little reimu look at rumia and ask 'Who are you?' Make me cry so hard.
Oh my the feels hit you! Emotional skyscraper is played perfectly

Well, it's 2023, can't believe it was more than 10 years ago that this was uploaded,
only knew touhou music, never touched the game,
the stories and symbolism in touhou is interesting, and am invested to check them out,
been knowing this piece of art from memes and hearsays, never experiencing the while thing,
goddamn this was rightfully heartwrenching and beautifully made.
Everytime something sad happens whether in real life or fiction, i can feel sadness fully but seldom tears, it's just not coming out.
But that moment in the end where Rumia is slowly realizing the situation while the forgotten miko was giving her heartfelt eulogy, tears welled up, but still not dropping. But GODDAMN did my heart felt burning up to the point of making tears, even knowing what was going to happen way before.
Just like what Rumia said, "it was so real". That's what makes it so emotional. And am glad to have experienced this rollercoaster, i deem this a valuable memory to behold, may anyone who watches this masterpiece earn compassion and happiness, just like they both did at the end.
Goddammit. This is one of the few things that actually devastated me. Legitimate tears.
This is even sadder when you know that despite everything, Rumia never found happiness again. Rumia ends up fighting Reimu just to be swallowed by the sands of time, and forced to join Rin satsuki in the lands of those who have been forgotten. May she rest in piece.
This is my first time that I stayed for almost 2 hours on someone's vid (although I join youtube about 3 years ago).
Thank you for uploading this video, I enjoy it very much
I have seen many things that make others cry but they didn't work for me but lately i was feeling even more horrible than usual and i finally decided to watch this to the end. This was the first thing and probably the last that made me cry so much. Honestly i would prefer to stop watching midway and never know what happens later but this was just so beautiful.
I never bawled so fucking much in my almost 20 years of living even at my absolute lowest.
@@PostalDudeTF2 fr man.
This was absolutly beautiful. The build up all along the video for this tear jerking finale was just sublime.

Truly a masterpiece. Being a newer fan to Touhou, i wasn't sure if i could understand this, but to my surprise, i did. Still, i am 10 years late, but it still was something to really not miss out on. I am proud to be in this community now, as it doesn't dissapoint. If i could give this an award, i would, but sadly RUclips won't let us do that.
This was really an experience, and i would want to forget it just to rewatch it. And what actually surprised me, was that the comments weren't lying. I usually am not sensitive, having only shed a single tear at Omori's ending (no really, what's wrong with me?), but this? I really did cry my eyes out. This is why i love the Internet, it always has experiences like these that are unforgettable (and unregrettable!).
Sorry if this comment was really long, I don't usually comment, but this time i felt the need to, haha!
I was recommend a post about this on RUclips. And I'm glad to have seen the full thing. I've enjoyed every second of it, even if I don't know anything about Touhou and its characters in general. And as a result has had me wanting more Touhou in my life, like any other person watching this who is new or familiar with Touhou.

This Was Like a Movie, You Start Knowing a bit And Getting Entertained, You Like it and Progress, and Then.. You Start Crying Like a baby at the End.
All sadness aside, this was probably one of the best comics I've read in a while. Shoutouts to the artist who did it.
Alright. I just watched this going in originally thinking it’d be like a funny skit comic, figured out in the beginning what it was about and anticipated the fall because I know about Rumia from the game. Every moment she said I’m hungry I mini panicked and wondered if that was when it would happen. When it did eventually happen, I actually shed around 7 tears, and only half can be attributed to yawning tears of exhaustion because I started this at around 3 AM and it’s now 5. For me, it takes a lot to make me shed tears, and even just to get my eyes moist and teary from emotion alone. I have a baseline emotional state of extreme apathy, and it can ebb and flow and change, but generally the more it changes, the more difficult it is to reach a state of greater emotional excitement. That fact that this actually got to me and made me genuinely emotional and care for this story says a lot about how compelling it is, and I love it when things manage to do that. The only way this could be better is if it were a legitimate movie, and I would totally watch that. This is really good, and I have nothing but respect for the author who wrote this. They are amazing.
That was more sadness than I was ready for. Excuse me while I go and watch the first 30 minutes over and over to go back to happier times for this story.
Damn found an ancient comment bois
"Maybe it was all a lie. Maybe it was just a fake life all the whole time. But even so it was real to me, it was real happiness."
Ouch...
finally took the time to watch that serie.
i am crying like i haven't in years
I thought this is gonna be a wholesome slice of life but at the end makes my eyes to waterfall😭
I cried... I was actually in tears, I can't believe it! This was so amazing and touching.
I didn't know this was gonna be like... 2 hours long. Gosh who does Reimu remind me of? Ponyo? Her tiny design gives off serious Ponyo vibes. The big eyes, simplistic design, and often unreal expressions (like when she's eating that watermelon in the beginning.)
definitely kinda sad. I wonder who's gonna take care of tiny Reimu? Rinnosuke? Yukari?
@@Devilcakes I assume she somehow raised herself.
Man, started out cute, and here I am in tears at the end.
That ending was so... the music and fanart really added to the charm but the story... I actually shed a few tears in the end. Don't get me wrong, I'm a dense Mofo when it comes towards witnessing sad fictitious stories and such but, when you take in all those precious moments between the characters it really does get to ya. Like, I knew it was gonna get a bit sad and morbid but WOW! I don't wanna spoil anything but this stuff really gets twisted and emotional at the end.
Damn, that ending was quite devastating... Never cried this much over a work of fiction. Even Stone Ocean's ending didn't turn me that much into a sobbing mess as this honestly.
Sadness is now a jojo reference
holy...i weren't expecting to cry this hard, i heard it was sad before but this...
Me watching this: Aww so wholesome
Me after watching this: *depression*

im often sad yet find it difficult to cry. this let me bawl my eyes out and that was something i really need. osana reimu went straight for my soul and is probably one of, or perhaps, the best story ive ever heard from any genre or medium.
"There are things in life that you don't choose - that's how you feel."
This sh*t was absolutely beautiful, somehow made me drop a geniune tear.
I don't even know how a Touhou doujin would ever make me cry, but here i am.
Dude, same. I didn’t cry my eyes out like other commenters but it did make a single tear come out, and that’s okay.
Came from the meme
Left with a mixture of very strong emotions, sadness, joy, laughter and the strongest emotion of all. Happiness
I came at 1AM to have a fun time ... now it's almost 3AM and my bed sheets are wet due to my constant crying.
But now, being serious.
This fanfiction is a beauty that overflows with love and passion from its creators.
Creations like this one made by Touhou fans made me want to join this world 2 years ago. There is so much content, and every day you can find new things. Today was Little Reimu and tomorrow it will be another jewel that will make me fall deeper in love with this project.
well ... I wish you happiness. As for myself, I will continue crying until I fall asleep.
best regards
this feels like getting tied up to a tree and being forced to watch/read a sad manga like this(and Omoito)
you don't know what's about to happen, but you know it's gonna be bad, that's why you want to leave before it even happens, but you cant
This was absolutely incredible. Thank you for letting me experience this in english.
I saw an image of a happy little girl and a link to this video saying "you're gonna cry your eyes out!" And I was 20 minutes in thinking they were full of it.... but the ending... I have to admit they were right.
This is pinnacle of story writing! Outstanding work 😭😭😭
For be a Touhou fan, im not that ppl that watch fanficts or fanmade mangas, only things that follow the canon line, but this, this one made me cry, not only for put "The Eternal Steam Engine" in the most sad momment, was because is beatiful, i really will keep this day like the most emotional day for me with an Touhou video. Just amazing...

What a moving story! The plot is simple, but in terms of storytelling is perfect! No wonder this doujin had been famous for so long.

But this masterpiece, its scary how it can so easily move the human heart into sadness.
What really gets me is that image of Reimu crying at the end, right before Yukari arrives. It hurts to see little Reimu cry so much there, I can't put it in words, I just cry every time I see that.
i have never cried this much over a manga before
I dont know how to describe the sadness i feel right now, this truly a masterpiece, im crying while writng this comment. Ahhh I wish Reimu's mom ws alive and Rumia had her memories back. Its cant be end like thiss…
Incredible. Truly no words. This was the video that broke me and made me go into full on sobbing. I haven’t seen or heard of anything like this, and this may be the first time i resonate with a character so much. Im not even finished with it, im only around an hour in and Ive already bawled my eyes out. This story is so touching and it speaks to me in a way nothing else ever could. Astonishing.
I finished it five minutes ago and ended up crying 2fold. Never thought little reimu would make me so emotional.
Was watching some of the Scarlet Devil Koakuma past letter english sub, but got to the end of what was availiable, and had seen this a few times in the recomeneded videos section on most of em and despite the length and it being 7am i caved and decided to watch it and lo and behold it got me watching the whole thing in one sitting till 9am and it got me choking and slightly tearing up. Thanks for posting this here all those years ago and thanks and a great job to those who both drew and wrote this and those who did the english translation for it.

a genuine heartfelt thank you
Can't believe I've put this off for nearly a decade. Then again, I'm somehow glad I did... After so many years, I'm more well-versed with the characters; The impact that this story left was far greater than I anticipated. No lie, I had to go through a small handful of tissues by the end. Didn't expect to find a quote within this which resonated with me, the way that it did. My gratitude to the creators as well translators. I'm happy to finally having watched this. ~⚫
