Very different art style from previous official releases. Interesting!

WTF why do we get this and not Touhou 18: Mima saves the day?!

 

[MoonlightwolfchanX]

More Touhou manga by Zun is always appreciated.

I don't know how exactly, but here is the Sakuya motivation. She want to make a chaos in the mansion so that her master would come to the young master. I don't think there is no bad intend to the librarian. She just want the sister to have a talk.

It could also because of this, the maid didn't call the red and white police. She knows her to well. But calling the underground isn't seem like an good option. She might just want to buy sometime for her goal. We can see this from the fact that the maid threatened the red that detective might pay her a visit as well. This distracted Reimu and drive away the assistant legally. Sakuya's goal has archived right before the case is solved. Sakuya win this time.


That's my theory. Make senses?

the art here is fucking amazing

I can't believe it! Flandre finally got an official appearance after so many years! She's back ladies and gentlemen, SHE'S BACK! Flandre isn't even one of my favorite characters, but this is exciting.

 

[Frandoll]

Flandre finally got a reason to appear in something official i'm so happy

@SakamotoDeath
Mima is the true culprit

 

[DeadintheWater]

Oh, Sakuya was messing with the tea again and gave Patchouli too high of a dose of some sleeping herbs.

 

[Ravezta]

ZUN really write his own touhou doujin centered around SDM and also Flandre appear
i hope the mansion explode in the next chapter
edit : oh, also unique artstyle but lacks BG

 

[R4ampage]

Goddamnit Sakuya put weird things into the Tea again what a classic

 

[CorakTM]

I have a theory. ZUN is tired of other artists making his art look like a joke. And since it seems to still be degrading he picked this artist to take the heat off of himself.

I know the touhou doujin scene is nowhere near as big as it used to be, but there has to be some great artists left that could have handled this.

 

[Ununoctium]

This looks so bad

While the art may not be the "best", I'm interested in seeing how it will improve if this manga is going to run for a while.

 

[VINT64]

The heck ZUN would imagine a story involving Flandre. He evaded mentioning her as much as possible.
Feels like another Inaba of the Moon, Inaba of the Earth.
And I don't like the artist's style. What to do. I guess, only wait. Fairy artist became a little better in the last fairies series. I hope, this one will also improve somehow

 

[Splashman]

While I also hope that the artist will improve the art for this particular series, just looking at her twitter is proof that she already is capable of doing much better art:

[GenericUserName6900]

I'll be giving this artist a chance and so should everyone because this's only the start, for all we know he could improve

 

[kwendy]

Of course it's a maid. It's always a maid. Also if she was working there - the library would be clean. The library is in disarray, that means maid was busy killing instead of cleaning. Perfect and elegant logic.
Also it's great to see some canonic amterial. Like SDM route is now set in stone and Flandre is definetely psycho, erm, a bit rowdy.

Wait, this is a story by ZUN so when Meiling said she naps almost everyday she canonized her fandom self ?
