    Touhou Suichouka ~ Lotus Eater-tachi no Suisei - Ch. 53 - To Wait for Good Fortune Is to Wait for a Drink (Part 1)

    If what Miko says is true and Reimu's good fortune comes from unconsciously sending prayers to the gods, it makes sense this would only apply as long as her situation is actually serious, and when she gets complacent or greedy she either forgets to keep praying or the gods simply roll their eyes...

    Mao - Ch. 230 - Face Sculptor

    "Wood overcomes Earth" slaps face with tree branch That is some grade AAA exorcism work, right there.

    Touhou - Ladies of Scarlet Devil Mansion - Vol. 1 Ch. 5

    I love that Remilia drew another diagram just to explain how the leak was Okina's fault. Remiligrams need to be a whole thing. They're the best.

    Yande Kita Mahou Shoujo no Nichijou - Ch. 3 - The Painful Observations of the Mind Reading Magical Girl...

    Three chapters, three magical girls, not one speck of positivity between them. Being a magical girl in this world suuuuuucks. What's worse, the mind-reading girl has no actual experience - or even an interest - in using her mind-reading powers for counseling. (Get her to a hospital? She won't...

    Touhou - SPELL (Doujinshi) - Ch. 4

    That's ultimately how it works anywhere. Even in societies that reject the death penalty, there can still be legal killing.

    "Suki" ga Nai Shoujo no Christmas... - Oneshot

    Her younger self thought she had to believe in at least one thing she was told she should believe in (or "want" one thing it was societally acceptable to want, like money or love or fame or kids), or it meant she was broken or incomplete. Encountering her older self reassured her that she wasn't...

    Yande Kita Mahou Shoujo no Nichijou - Ch. 2 - The Daily Life of a Mentally Ill Magical Girl...2

    It's 100% some form of social anxiety. What I'm wondering about is to what extent it was present from the beginning, and to which an unprocessed traumatic experience induced it or made it worse. I think something happened that she believes could have been avoided if only she had been more...

    Yande Kita Mahou Shoujo no Nichijou - Ch. 2 - The Daily Life of a Mentally Ill Magical Girl...2

    It looks like monster attacks are expected, fairly common, and unrelenting, to the point magical girls are assigned beats that they have to patrol regularly and are responsible for. Which makes magical girling not just work, but dangerous work. There's only so much of that a teenage girl can...

    Touhou Suichouka ~ Lotus Eater-tachi no Suisei - Ch. 52 - No Matter Where You Go, There Will Always Be Sunshine and Sake (Part 2)

    Reimu asking Miko if she's planning to go nude in order to make a spectacle of herself is the closest an official Touhou work is every going to get to a hentai doujin. Crack ships have been built out of less... Much, much less, actually.

    Kasane to Subaru - Vol. 3 Ch. 21

    "Isn't this moving too fast" Well, first of all, no, you're adults, but second of all, have you read this author's other manga? You could have been boning twenty chapters ago.

    Kimi no Kokoro wo Kanjitai - Vol. 1 Ch. 3 - What’s the point if I can’t understand them!!

    Let's say you'd translated the first kanji right away, but as "ebullient" - would that have come close to the intended effect?

    Touhou Suichouka ~ Lotus Eater-tachi no Suisei - Ch. 51 - Chapter 51 : No Matter Where You Go, There Will Always Be Sunshine and Sake - Part 1

    Dang, that was fast. And is it just me, or does this translation flow particularly well? You're finally improving!

    You and I are Polar Opposites - Ch. 52 - Yeah No

    A class of his own.

    Touhou - SPELL (Doujinshi) - Ch. 3

    It's taken from Perfect Memento in Strict Sense's article on Reimu: However, Perfect Memento is not infallible. It's written by Akyuu, and Akyuu can be mistaken, which allows doujin authors to hew extremely close to canon and still depart from it in certain ways. For example, by having the...

    Tensai Majo no Maryoku Kare - Vol. 2 Ch. 29

    I think I gave it the amount of specificity it deserved.

    Tensai Majo no Maryoku Kare - Vol. 2 Ch. 29

    To win an argument on the internet. No, really.

    Suki na Ko ga Megane wo Wasureta - Vol. 12 Ch. 109

    I still get "trying to stay strong" vibes from Komura. I bet he'll break down in tears twice as hard during or after the real graduation.

    Warui ga Watashi wa Yuri ja nai - Vol. 2 Ch. 10.5 - Volume 2 Extras

    Ogi explicitly expresses their concern that what they have in the pants seems to matter more to the MC than who they are on the inside, a worry that was the direct result of the MC's clumsy - and, as you say, arguably low-key transphobic - approach. Meaning, the story addresses the exact concern...

    Touhou - SPELL (Doujinshi) - Ch. 2

    Yukari possessing the power to heal wounds (via manipulating the boundary that keeps a human being's insides from being their outsides) makes quite a lot of sense. It's almost a little too much of an easy way out for Reimu, though. Then again, training under Yukari fulfilling the role of the...

    Touhou Suichouka ~ Lotus Eater-tachi no Suisei - Ch. 50 - He Who Only Takes a Sip Is As Guilty as the Thief (Part 2)

    This story has been very reminiscent of the Wild and Horned Hermit days. This is what happens if Kasen isn't there to whip Reimu into shape...
