So the batshit plot this time was:
-Gourd is not working
-Mary Suika demands of whale to fix it
-Whale asks Marisa the ordinary fuckup to fix it
-Marisa is a fuckup and breaks it
-Dramatic cliffhanger
-That gourd was actually a fake that looks exactly like the real one, how convenient!
-Mary Suika actually meant "give me booze" when she said "fix this for me (points to gourd) or I'll kill you"
-Everybody's at fault except Suika, as usual
-Marisa contemplate committing not-alive but instead decides to examine the real gourd
-The way she'll do that is by performing a ritual for good health? Figure it out yourself stupid!
-next chapter There's a never before mentioned rat problem that drink fucking alcohol (youkai, I ain't gotta explain shit)
-The ritual for good health has people walk in circles, which means snakes, which means anti-rat-blessing something
-The rats that drink alcohol were actually Suika being petty so she gave Marisa her gourd to keep her quiet about her petty theft that Marisa had no way of knowing before she told her about it
-Ritual was pointless btw
Sasuga ZUN, as always he writes a plot that feels like he wants you to speculate of what's going to happen next then pulls out the most ridiculous crap the next chapter and invalidates every single lead that readers had.

I just did the oharae grass ring ritual at our local shrine yesterday. The shrine is shutting down permanently in a few days, so I am pleased to see the ritual appear in Gensokyo.
The ritual ended up not having anything to do with the "incident", but I have a feeling it may yet have some significance to the story later as a loose end.
