Touhou lore: "A shrine maiden and a witch blast the hell out of everyone in their way and have a tea party afterwards."
Rinse and repeat for 18 games
Thanks

@@RazzTheTwistedName ah yes, Reimu is “British”
The rabbits in Eintei are earth rabbits. Only reisen is a moon rabbit, shes a refuge from the lunar war, a war of lunarians against America.
So there was oil on the moon?
@@veto_5762 yes
@@xyno_loqic INDEED AMERICA THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IS.
Its more of a lunarians trying to kill 3 people for planting a flag (Literally with the only intention to dab into the soviets and brings no danger at all). Not only thats the crazy part. Not only those 3 survives. They have managed to kill literal moon rabbits
@@4SeasonProducer That’s the power of being chosen among the few to have completed an extremely difficult physical test then given daily training and an armor that can withstand the power of space itself. Also guns for self defense
Summarization of the games:
Embodiment of the scarlet devil:
Reimu and Marissa sees a weird mist surrounding Gensokyo, a dimension where mythical beings can keep on living separate from the human world (even though a few humans live in Gensokyo). Reimu goes to investigate (if you play as Marisa, she would only do it to become a stronger witch), and runs into Rumia, a yokai, and Cirno, the strongest fairy in Gensokyo, and defeats them; only to find out that they were not responsible for the mist.
She arrives at the Scarlet Devil Mansion and follows Hon Meiling, the guard of the mansion, and wins a fight against her. Meiling shows her the way to the mansion, and runs into Patchouli the magician (witch) and Koakuma the vampire. Reimu wins against both of them, and if you were to play as Marisa, you find out that she she steals books from Patchouli. Reimu gets to the hallway of the mansion where she encounters Sakuya the maid, who explains that Remilia is not available, to which Reimu would not take no for an answer. Sakuya is defeated, and leads Reimu to Remilia Scarlet, the owner of the mansion and the culprit of the mist. Remilia used the mist to block out the sun during the day, but it's only causing problems. Remilia loses against Reimu and clears the mist from the sky.
Remilia visits Reimu and Marisa at the Hakurei shrine during the daytime, and they all noticed that a storm was brewing on top of the mansion. Remilia couldn't return to the mansion so Reimu and Marisa went to see Patchouli running around the mansion (and for whatever reason they fight). They find out eventually that it was to prevent Flandre Scarlet, Remilia's younger sister, from leaving the mansion. Flandre's reason is because she was stuck in the mansion for 400 years. Flandre asks Reimu to play with her, in which Reimu defeats because she wanted Remilia to leave the shrine, and that is the end of the story.
Perfect Cherry Blossom:
Gensokyo is stuck in an eternal winter, with snowstorm occurring in the spring time. Reimu's shrine wasn't able to keep her warm, Marisa wonders if spring is taking place somewhere else, and Sakuya is running out of supplies to keep the Scarlet Devil Mansion warm.
Whichever of the three characters you choose will set out to investigate, but for the sake of the summary, let's go with Reimu.
Reimu confronts the winter spirit Letty, which she defeats. She also runs into Cirno (which is there for some reason) and wins against her, and eventually fights against Chen the Nekomata on the village of Mayohiga. She later runs into Alice Margotroid and her dolls, who claims that she has met Reimu previously.
After winning against her, Reimu notices Cherry blossoms blowing in the sky, and decides to follow. She reaches a magical boundary high above Gensokyo, and comes across the Prismriver sisters (Lunasa, Merlin, and Lyrica). After defeating them, she crosses the boundary into the Netherworld.
She is walking up stairs, and after fighting off ghosts, she comes face to face with human ghost gardener, Youmu Konpaku. Youmu explains that there is no spring in the Netherworld where the Saigyou Ayakashi tree bloom, so she brought the spring for the tree, and the rest of the Hakugyokurou's gardens, as orders from her master. Reimu then defeats Youmu, and goes to Hakugyokurou to retrieve spring, but then meets Yuyuko Saigyouji, the ghost princess, there.
Yuyuko reveals that she brought spring to the Hakugyokurou because she wanted to revive a soul that was trapped in the Saigyou Ayakashi tree, and it needs to bloom for it to work. After a fierce battle, Reimu is able to contain the last of spring for Gensokyo. However, the tree that contained the soul began to weakend before it almost bloomed, and the soul is temporary unleashed. That soul was Yuyuko's. Reimu dodges one more attack, and Yuyuko's soul was re-sealed.
After spring returns to Gensokyo, Yuyuko visits Reimu, and asks her to tell her friend Yukari Yakumo, a Youkai, to repair the boundary. After defeating Yukari on a battle, Yukari fixes the boundary.
Mucho texto :0
And they all eat borgar.
What a great goodnight story for children :)
The official cannon for PC-98 in relation to windows is cannon until contradicted.
Mm good point
As the Redditors would say; "Well yes, but actually no"
I already knew this lore but I needed a refresher from not being active in the fandom for several years before now, and I was thinking of making fanwork but without knowing where to start or what to do. Thank you for making these for new fans, too,
Edit: Thanks for the heart, I’m starting to think of some fanfic ideas now by the way
Editing a hearted comment gets rid of the heart 💀
@@lod4246 I've known that for months now. I didn't really mind the sacrifice, as I know the heart is still meant.
@@BinglesP Based, and you deserve another.
You are pretty much just scratching the surface. Touhou actually has a very rich and deep worldbuilding, but to really understand it you need to read the side materials (official books and manga).
That's sooooooo true
where do i start manga wise
Start with Touhou Suzunaan
@@Suwawako It's good for an average person that digged up a bit, but It's not that good suggestion for an actually complete beginner. You would have to know the characters generally pretty much to understand suzunaan and not everyone knows that much.
Sangetsusei on the other hand is about three fairies of light going around gensokyo and seeing incidents or the places where incidents were happened. The manga introduces the characters a lot with specifying their abilities too, making it easier for the beginners. It's also one of the first mangas, which makes it even better.
So if someone asks a manga to start, recommend them sangetsusei if they know barely and recommend silent sinner in blue or forbidden scrollery if they have enough understanding of the general characters.
"Touhou lore is actually very deep and-"
"Hmm i can go outside with an umbrella... nahh i will just cover up the sun with red fard because that makes more sense"
The absurdity of touhou’s plot could probably have a back alley knife fight with ace combat lore both are so over the top for having such simple characters. Touhou allows a shrine maiden to beat the piss out of some extra worldly entities while Ace combat allows a pilot to use a Cold War era Soviet aircraft to duel hyper advanced aircraft and even a nuclear satellite.
This feels like a class presentation in the best way possible
so basically, jojo but with women
my friend has been a fan of touhou for a very long time, eventually I got curious and now I'm here learning all about touhou and I feel like I'm about to go through a rabbit hole
There’s 4 ways your journey can go from here

-Memes
-Art (be it music or drawings)

@@victorvirgili4447 What do you mean by "The dark side of Gensokyo"

I'm new in the touhou community and right now I'm in scarlet devil trying to beat the entire game in lunatic no exceptions and I'm also watching this video as I beat each stage just to double check if I understand everything. And yes I know about the secret stage 7 of beating lunatic without continues I'm doing that too and even before knowing that I REFUSE to go below lunatic. So far the furthest I've been was the stage 4 boss she destroyed me 😭.
Goodluck m8
good luck🙏
HOW DO I GET THE GAME I WANNA GET THEM SO BAD BUT IDK HOW PLZ TELL MR

i never got into the touhou plots that much cuz its that kind of saturday cartoon shennagins, which manages to be even more random than saturday cartoons
Just never felt it was engaging, ZUN has put that really none of the games are played on the MC's perspective, but rather on third person, which helps with that disconnection.
I just want to shoot boolet brr
Which helps with accessibility. I have only played Touhou Gyouku Ibun (17.5). But I still understand general character personalities and the world.
Niiiice, VA-11 HALL-A music for the intro!
Do you plan on covering the rest of the series and the fighting games lore?
You can count on me to do that
Fun fact.
One of the Scarlets' themes is called Young Descendants of Tepes
Hinting the Scarlets maaaay be related to Dracula.
Also the audio gets de synchronised
I know lol the video got hella screwed up thanks to vegas so I just wanted to just release it soon. It took so long just to load the video in a player, and that's using a relatively powerful gpu and an SSD. Must be the codec I used haha. Part 2 will be better I promise
Hidden gem of a channel
Youmu Fanclub let's gooo! awesome video bro :)
There's so much jojo reference i don't know what to analyze
Is the video ahead on the audio for anyone else?
yes
trying to get into touhou is exhausting
It's a lot to take in, I'm just trying to understand the story line but there's just so much to it
Bro I gave up. I'm just gonna enjoy the cool songs and nice fanarts.
awww! you beat me to it! I was working on a touhou lore video! awww nevermind tho this video was good haha
Blessed
The music and fan content and of course anira's bad apple animation brought me here
i think zun's stance on the lore is pc98 is cannon unless contradicted by newer games/manga/etc
This is your first video about touhou :D, pls make more touhou videos in the future ❤️
umm...
FINALLY... SOME CONTEXT
i havent played a single game and idk what is going on 😭
I started from DDC and couldn't understand because it was written in japanese, anyway I had a special interest in lore this should be handy
Part 2 pls
Nice argument about the Touhou lore.
Unfortunately… *You can’t have a presence life without a cause of the shine.*
Red mist? Creepypasta moment
no there's non in creepypastas. it's an anime and games thing.
I understand half of these words separately
I came here to see if it's possible for a crossover with TF2.
Reimu slack after alomost 1 month she go to sdm to solve it
I noticed somewhere that the pics are coming quicker than they should. Was there a syncing issue?
Yes
The video and audio sync died halfway through the video lol
Does anyone have a source to that picture of Alice at 4:57
Loce the lore!
Honestly, im just there for Marisa
Video and audio unmatched?
Touhou 1-5 exists tho, maybe add that too?
Look harder in my channel and you will see something cool
can I play with you :3
Dio?
5:57
jojo reference alert
These games have a story? I bet it surely isn't some unlogical weird bullshit to a commoner such as i.
7:50 TRUE
I appreaciate the plot summary, my text to speech gets all flustered when I ask it to read off the touhout wiki, but this isn't LORE. THere's not a s ingle mention of WHY any of these characters are. What is up with all these demi-human species and all these alternative universes? How does the magic system even work? Why is everyone fighting like it's a shonen villain of the week thing?
1.they originate from folktales and religion (power of faith)
2.folktales
3. The magic system is simple (whatever zun thinks is cool he adds it. Just assume anything can happen)
4.reasons vary but incidents are a pretty good way to affirm youkai existence (power of faith, dont wanna blip outta existence because humans forgot you exist.)
@@venren523 thanks, mate
1:12
Mima is canon!
tbh i prefer to assume the PC98 games was a old folk lore tale that reimu and marisa would tell while they are piss drunk
happened so long ago that it cant be confirmed weather it actually happened or if its just the drunk ramblings of 2 idiots
either that or just straight drunken rambles
Is this a jojo vidoe or a touhou vidoe
What is the game in the background?
touhou urban legend in limbo
Is the video out of sync with the audio or it's just me?
must be the lunatic eyes getting to you
When you were talking about best girl you said Cirno wrong.
Lore
I'm stupid

Ok so touhou project is jojo's bizarre adventure but with loli cute girls
Right?
HONESTLY , MUSIC IN TOUHOU IS GREAT 9/10
GIRLS PRETTY TOO 😘😘😘
I SUGGEST NEVER LOOK TOUHOU FROM STORY BECAUSE SADLY TOO RANDOM AND GENERIC
6/10 LIKE DC MARVEL UNIVERSE STORY / EPISODIC / TOO MANY PEOPLE IDEA INVOLVE THE CANON STORY BESIDE "ZUN"
WARHAMMER 40K HAVE COMPLEX STORY BUT I GET IT
decent video but please work on your pronunciations.
:< D
Is this a parody? The pronunciation kinda makes it too obvious.
