I can’t get over the little details. Like Cirno’s eyes and eyebrows forming a pair of 9’s. And Reimu autocollecting the points when she moves “upscreen” from Meiling’s corpse.

Well, the knowledge you need for Touhou 6 only. Guy above me already said it, there's 17 more Touhou games to go (Not 20+, If you count the original games only).
Hello. I am a Japanese high school student who love Touhou Project. This video is surreal and very interesting! Your love for the Touhou Project has come to me. Other videos are also interesting! I am looking forward to it.
A beautiful love note for all the Touhou fans around. Whether you came from Bad Apple, the massive amounts of fan arts on your favorite characters, or even from the Team Fortress 2 vs Saxton Hale community like me, we've all grown to love and cherish this community for what it was and what it is until now. Worth the wait and beautiful job Pelo!
Patchouli's quick and sudden blush after meeting Marisa just made me lol. Also, that ending really shows just how much you love Touhou. Keep being awesome, Pelo.
@@rsg5314 What, like the Aki sisters? While she might technically be a god, I don't think Ms. Paints-The-Leaves-Orange-For-Fall can hold a candle to the raw power of ⑨; her frigid chills would just make the candle go out instantly!
3:15 for non touhou fans, this character is Sanae Kochiya from Mountain of Faith. Sr Pelo puts her as an joke cuz she is compared with reimu in some fan work. 3:21 Thats Jun'ya Ota (ZUN) the creator of Touhou project. and in fanworks he always appears as an touhou character but in reality the main developer of all the official Touhou project games.
Aight let's do this! If you're unfamiliar with Touhou or the memes in this video, I will attempt to explain most of the gags. 0:04 - The scarlet mist incident that menaced reaching all the way to the outside world was the trigger for the events of the game 0:09 - Reimu can just fly without wings or a broom, it's normal in this world. She heads out first as the main character while Marisa hangs back at the shrine. 0:19 - Rumia, who is the first boss, introduces players to the idea that the enemies aren't just cute girls, but also man-eating youkai 0:24 - Reimu's shrine maiden accessories are more than suited to handle youkai 0:32 - Despite being a mid-boss, poor Daiyousei gets no portrait nor spell cards to her name in this game, and quickly exits the stage for Cirno 0:42 - "Brainfreeze" here doesn't refer just to the effects of crushed ice, but also to the fact that Cirno is canonically an idiot, as said by ZUN in the manual of Touhou 9. She is labelled on the manual's legend's 9th entry as "Baka", and because of that has been nicknamed (9) ever since. Said circled nine can be seen on the cup. 0:48 - Also Cirno defeating herself with her own spell is a bit reminiscent of one of her spell cards on Easy mode offering her no protection from just standing in front of her (which contributed to her "idiot" labelling). 1:00 - Hong Meiling, the third boss, is commonly described as sleeping on her job of gatekeeper, allowing people to slip into the mansion. Sometimes she's also described as waking up right in time if someone actually tries. In this video she somehow does both. 1:22 - Reimu using a Grenade might be a reference to the "death bomb" mechanic of using a Bomb right when a projectile hits you. 1:23 - (found by Codex Marsema) - Meiling makes this sound in the game every time she moves around. every. time. 1:34 (by Fadillah) - This gag might refer to the fact that Meiling is one of the only characters who canonically use close combat techniques while everyone else uses ranged danmaku. It doesn't help her all that much here. 1:38 - These are the power ups and point collectibles left by defeated enemies, including bosses, and also the noise they make when you pick them up. 1:40 (addendum by @pokechao196) - Instead of going to the items to pick them up, Reimu walks away and crosses the "point of collection", which in the game lets you automatically collect every collectible on screen as can be seen here. 1:48 - Koakuma is the assistant of Patchouli, helping as she can with the library. 1:56 - The books are actual enemies in this stage 2:28 - Patchouli has a weak constitution, has asthma, is anaemic and has vitamin D deficiency from staying inside the library at all time 2:41 - As a professional Youkai exterminator, Reimu has no remorse bullying and exterminating weak fairies. 2:51 - Likewise, as Remilia Scarlet's head maid, Sakuya has no remorse disposing of humans or processing them into meals for her mistress. Oh and she can stop time like Dio. 3:13 - As Marisa gets tired of loitering and enters the stage, Sanae tries to sneak in, but ZUN sends her away, which is funny for several reasons. First off, she didn't exist at this point in the story, she might not even be in Gensokyo yet. Secondly her shrine is a competitor of Reimu's, and she'd love that the Hakurei Shrine become assimilated into the Moriya Shrine. 3:23 - ZUN also liked calling himself in official artbooks as one of the priests of the Hakurei Shrine, which makes him fit to keep the shrine in Reimu's absence 3:35 - "so~ nanoka~" floats over Rumia's head, which is her catchphrase. The Yin Yang orb also flies quite far when hit as seen in the first Touhou. 3:42 - Ok this might be my favourite gag. It's a callback to Touhou 1 "highly responsive to prayers" where Reimu can be hit by her own Yin Yang orb, causing her to lose a life and die with those same particle effects. 4:23 - Marisa's "Master Spark" Bomb attack. It's a big awesome laser that does the job. That's about it. 4:35 - Touhou being a danmaku, Reimu's sprite is much larger than her actual hitbox, allowing to easily dodge the knives without moving. Coming close to projectiles like so is called "grazing" and lets the player earn additional points (points let you get extra lives) 4:42 - Marisa stealing books from Patchouli is a recurring gag in fan works. 4:49 - So is Patchouli having feelings for Marisa (who only has to say her catchphrase "da ze" or just "ze"). Of course it's more of a love hate relationship as she'll chase Marisa when she tries to steal her books. 5:10 (hinted at by SrPelo himself) - Patchouli's boss theme is titled "Locked Girl ~ The Girl's Secret Room". Here Patchouli ends up being literally locked-in! 5:31 (by Fadillah) - Getting hit by one of the boss' projectiles AFTER defeating them and dying is a real risk in Touhou, watch out for that knife Reimu! 5:39 - Reimu and Marisa are rivals, and even used to be enemies early in the PC-98 games. But by that point they've already become friends, also since Marisa is one of the few people to visit Reimu at her shrine. 5:50 - Despite being defeated at the end of Stage 5, Sakuya comes back as Stage 6's midboss to try and shave at least one Bomb off the player before they meet her mistress (yes she literally breaks the 4th wall in the game) 5:55 - Marisa eating bread is a reference to her dialogue with Remilia when they meet in the game, which itself is a reference to Zeppeli and Dio meeting in Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. ("Do you remember how many breads have you eaten in your life?", to which Marisa replies 13 because she usually eats japanese food). Ironically, in this video it looks more like a Melon Bread, which is more of a typical japanese food. 6:01 (by Use Moar Meemz) - Remilia smoking is a reference to the fan animation "Silent Stoner in Blue" which is a short parody of the official Touhou Manga "Silent Sinner in Blue" 6:10 - Remilia is the culprit behind the scarlet mist incident. Her plan was to have the mist block the sun so she could come out during the day. Here though she just seems to be having a good time. Also Sakuya becomes distressed whenever her mistress displays a lack of charisma. 6:20 - Well many of her projectiles in the fights do look like big donuts. 6:24 - Reimu and Marisa finally die once, but they had some extra lives it appears. 6:34 - Marisa throwing a star is most likely a reference to her other Bomb attack called "Stardust Reverie" 6:43 - In most Touhou games, Reimu basically go beat up the ass of powerful youkai to set them straight. They usually have good relationships afterwards. Also her pose when crying is her crouching/guard position in the fighting games, which is also hilariously nicknamed Charisma BREAK. 6:58 - Beating the game without using any continues (aka, doing a "1CC") unlocks the Extra Stage and its Extra Boss, Flandre Scarlet, the little sister of Remilia, aged of barely 495 years, and still canonically (one of) the most overpowered character in the franchise lore-wise. To attempt to describe her power, she can move her opponents' weak points to the palm of her hand, and then crush it, instantly destroying them. I say opponents but it also works with inanimate things, like a big meteor. She's basically Shiki Tohno from Tsukihime except she doesn't even have to reach you to destroy you. 7:37 (by 彼岸花) - the art style of this sequence is reminiscent of Fantasy Kaleidoscope, a big Touhou fan animation project by Manpukujinja 7:38 (found by @Zinji) - People and items that disappear from our world tend to end up appearing randomly in Gensokyo. The animation that SrPelo lost all those years ago was therefore possibly found there. (because, since the events of Touhou actually occur in the present, Genskyo is hidden from the outside world by a magic barrier somewhere in Japan) 7:57 (by Codex Marsema) - That text-to-speech voice line and those heads are references to the Yukkuri Shiteitte ne! (Take it easy!) meme that stemmed from a lousy ASCII fanart of Reimy and Marisa's faces. I think I got most of it, please let me know if you got other Touhou references I didn't get. I didn't list the obvious modern references like the BONK or Snoop Dogg.
Adding on to 1:38, the powerup items are only picked up as Reimu walks away and crosses the Point of Collection. In the games, the Point of Collection is a line near the top of the screen where items are automatically drawn towards the player if they pass it.
Just a small detail: canonically, Hecatia Lapislazuli is the most powerful character in the series, though her power is severely understated in her appearances. Flandre is still ridiculously powerful, but lore-wise she does fall short of some other characters like Yukari or Okina.
So after actually playing the game and reading the lore these are all references I could catch. 0:03 It’s what kicks off the events of the game, Remilia causes a mist to flow over Gensokyo and block the sun since she’s a vampire. Here though it’s just weed smoke. 0:19 Rumia says in game that she eats humans. 0:33 That’s Daiyousei, the midboss of stage 2. She doesn’t come back though and is thus overshadowed by Cirno soon after. 0:40 Cirno doesn’t actually have a spell card called Brainfreeze, but it’s supposed to mock the fact that she’s canonically an idiot. She’s described like that by the author in one book and is labeled as ⑨, which is where the number in the milkshake comes from. 0:57 That’s the gate of Scarlet Devil Mansion, which is guarded by Hong Meiling. 1:18 All the poses for spell cards in the video more or less replicate the ones from the game. This one is Reimu’s iconic pose doing the hand thingy. 1:38 Whenever you defeat an enemy they drop points that can increase your score and attack power. 1:49 That’s Koakuma, Patchouli’s assistant and the midboss of stage 4. 1:55 In stage 4 there are some book enemies that shoot stuff at you. 2:26 Patchouli canonically has bad health and asthma. 2:45 Sakuya is the maid of Remilia in the Scarlet Devil Mansion, she spends most of the time just cleaning the place. 3:22 That’s ZUN, the creator of the series and the guy that does most of the stuff in the games. I don’t really know who is that other girl before him though, if someone knows please tell me. 3:42 That’s a funny callback to Touhou 1, the first game in the PC-98 era, since there you can get killed by your own yin yang ball. 4:08 Sakuya’s main power is time control. She can do pretty much anything she wants with it, like stopping, reversing, erasing… 4:21 Master Spark is Marisa’s signature spell card, and the sound effect here is the same as in the game. 4:35 Graze is when you barely dodge an attack in the games. Reimu’s actual hurtbox is a circle much smaller than her sprite, which is why it seems like the knives just go right through her. 4:40 In the game Marisa teases Patchouli by saying she’s going to steal one of her books. 5:02 One of Patchouli’s spell cards uses fireballs just like these. 5:50 Sakuya comes back on stage 6 as a midboss right before the Remilia fight. 6:20 Remilia doesn’t have a spell card called Devil’s Dessert, but in many of her attacks she fires energy balls that do look a bit like donuts. 6:23 When you die in the games you just spawn right back in the same place, if you have lives of course. 6:41 Not really a reference to anything, but if you slow this part down by a lot you can kinda hear Remilia trash talking Reimu. 6:51 That’s the “fake” ending of the game. When you beat Remilia without using a continue you unlock the extra stage with Flandre as the boss, where the game actually ends. 7:00 Flandre is the most feared character in the game, even though she isn’t actually crazy, that’s a made up personality by the fandom. She has an ability that pretty much allows her to destroy anything she wants, which is what happened here. Edit: It's with extreme satisfaction that I come back here one year later to tell you all that I finaly beat Flandre Edit 2: It's with even more satisfaction that 3 months later I beat Flandre without using bombs
3:18 That character is Sanae Kochiya from Touhou 10: Mountain of Faith. She starts off that game by demanding Reimu to hand over her shrine and essentially become a branch of Moriya Shrine. Reimu tells her to fuck off and then goes on a rampage. This scene is a reference to how Sanae wanted to take over Hakurei Shrine, but ZUN is telling her to GTFO because she hasn’t been introduced yet. Also, there’s no evidence that Sakuya can reverse time. If she can, she hasn’t done it yet.
1:40 In the games, if you move far enough up screen, point and power-up objects that enemies drop will auto-collect. That’s what’s happening here, since Reimu moved “up screen” of Meiling’s body. 3:36 The hiragana circling Rumia’s head say “So nanoka,” a childish way of saying “is that so?” It’s considered to be Rumia’s catchphrase. 4:43 Marisa is absolutely a kleptomaniac. She’s known to have “borrowed” items from other people, and her house is littered with all sorts of crap she’s accumulated. I’m not sure if she has canonically stolen books from Patchouli’s library, but it’s a common occurrence in fan works. 4:49 “Ze” is Marisa’s catchphrase. It’s a masculine way to end sentences, and Marisa uses it all the time. 5:12 This is a play on Patchouli’s theme, “Locked Girl - The Girl’s Secret Room.” Here Marisa has locked her in her library, hence the joke. 5:55 Not a Touhou reference, but rather a JoJo reference. In Part 1, there’s a moment where Will Zeppeli asks Dio how many lives he sucked to heal his wounds, and Dio replies with “Do you remember how many breads have you eaten in your life?” Remilia is a vampire, as is Dio. (Edit: I forgot that Marisa actually references this line in the game.)
The Great Hakurei Barrier is the boundary of common sense, repelling anything mundane or logical from entering Gensokyo while letting in whacky shit or things that are lost Sr Pelo lost a bunch of his projects roughly 8 years ago. Marisa found that book randomly. Think about it.
I like how most of the bosses went down hilariously fast except for Sakuya , who managed to last almost half the video before going down and still came back afterwards.
It’s actually an awesome work. I’m so impressed that there’s so many references about touhou in this animation, and I felt your love for touhou. Respect from Japan!
I'm sad that most people will miss the post-credits scene since it really shows how far Sr Pelo's artystyle has progressed. EDIT: I wasn't talking about whether or not it looked like anime. I was just referring to the fact that it looked good.
@@25.aohoangminh70 that ain't even anime. That's as western cartoon as I've ever seen the touhou girls before. Also, it's about as on pair, if not smother, then spooky month.
@@25.aohoangminh70 wut, that doesn't even look any close to anime style, smh Just because they speak japanese doesn't mean it's necessarily to be look like anime This is still Pelo's artstyle
Honestly this video made smile more than just laugh. It's legitimately wholesome and the idea of Pelo's Project gotten lost and transported to Gensokyo is just simply the icing on the cake.
@@broseidonofthebrocean thanks bud you made me feel even worse about my grammar cause I hate the word “your” and “you’re” cause it makes me go completely insane
I like how patchouli is just a very dedicated librarian who agrees to leave her alone when reimu agrees to be quiet. ...until she starts making helicopter noises.
Take my freakin' like. This is just delightful all the way through. The lack of dialogue really works to the project's advantage, here. All the humor comes from the clever use of visuals, music, and sound effects working in tandem. It really shows the charm and effectiveness of simplicity.
Ye I liked the art style Never could watch the anime cause they all looked like 10 year olds and this was such a fun watch. Also people like remieu look like ducks
Man Touhou’s having a killer year; you’ve just unleashed a new wave of fans along with Touhou Lost Word. Thank you! (Also the Sanae part made me crack up)
When I first watched video when it first came out, I was still a non-Touhou fan and my reaction was "Haha, funny". Now that I'm an Touhou fan, rewatching this makes me realize this is peak comedy.
*helicopter noises* okay seriously I love everything about this, like the art conveys so much, the interpretation of everyone is fun and light hearted, I love how the punchline of the entire video is that it's just a storyboard that Marisa happens across, it's all brilliant Also that end bit is a great reminder that behind all the memes, your art is absolutely stellar
Is this animation based on the first canon of the series? I know very little about Touhou but I know that the first canon is now ended and new started. Could this mean that main characters in the end are basically from the new canon? This might explain why the animation is a storyboard in their world
I mean, technically there's two separate canons: Touhou 1-5, which were on the PC-98, supposedly is mostly separate to Touhou 6 onwards, which are all on Windows. It's mostly because out of every single character in the first five games, only four returned in the Windows games: Reimu, Marisa, Yuuka (who cut her hair short and reappeared in 9) and Alice (who had a wardrobe change, grew a bit and came back in 8), while everyone else is yet to reappear in another official game since. I believe it's mostly because 1-5 were made while ZUN was part of a team, and he likely had trouble getting the rights to all of them when he became a solo developer between 5 and 6.
@@Mr._Sherwood The copyright thing is a popular myth related to PC-98 Touhou. Yep it's true he asked to help with his games to his student computer club, but even in PC-98 he has was still mostly solo dev (well he once liked to write music for some obscure indie games or even early Windows Touhou era fan games, but it's a totally different story not related to this one). Truth is why ZUN wants to PC-98 to be separate from the Windows era, as he said in one of his reviews with him, It's because he took too much inspiration for plots and characters and mechanics from his favourite media like games, mangas and animes where he was reading or watching or playing at this time and was enjoying it. And many characters, plots or mechanics were mostly parodies or just inspired by it too much. And he thinks there is mostly no use for mostly non-serious PC-98 characters in now more steady Windows's canon (also he didn't want to base his creations too much on someones else ideas like in the past).
Happy 20th anniversary, _Embodiement of Scarlet Devil!_

Lo lograste, hermano ¡LO LOGRASTE!, Vaya que 8 minutos de animación no es para tomarse a la ligera! Me tomó muy de sorpresa la ultima parte jajajaja. Qué forma tan genial de rendirle tributo a este juego, ya me imagino lo gracioso que será ver las video reacciones de las personas que no tienen la menor idea qué es Touhou! Excelente trabajo!!!
Imagine if he makes Perfect Cherry Blossom one, there's just a pink hair girl stabbing herself under a tree. Would also like to see Mokou and Kaguya screaming eachother in a high pitched tone
i like the touhou 1 ~ Highly Responsive to Prayers referance and the fact that u had put ZUN in the animation there. really great stuff man. keep it up.
Hello everyone who doesn’t know anything about Touhou! Here is a basic explanation of everything you need to know to get the funny and get sucked into the eternal rabbit hole that is Touhou! Don’t worry, this won’t take long. Touhou - Is a series of top-down shooters (think Galaga), - Specifically “bullet hell” shooters (exactly what it sounds like) - But with anime girls (and awesome music, neat setting, etc.) - Also a titan of the early internet, spawning memes, fan works, spin-offs, and much more - One advantage of getting into Touhou: you will literally never run out of new content, the fans have created mountains of manga, fan games, videos, memes, even an actual anime - Touhou is set in Gensokyo, a land cut off from our world where all the things humans don’t care about/believe in anymore go (so basically it’s full of youkai (monsters) and old stuff) - The plot this time: an old mansion ends up in Gensokyo, and the mansion’s head decides to try and assert dominance by throwing mist everywhere, so our hero Reimu goes to beat up the mansion’s owner and get them to behave THE CHARACTERS (in order of appearance in video) Reimu Hakurei (the shrine maiden) - Keeps up the barrier between our world and Gensokyo - Responsible for dealing with whatever stupid things the youkai do - Does not have the patience to deal with their garbage - Probably poor Marisa Kirisame (the witch) - Literally just a human who knows magic (massive laser) - Kleptomaniac - Best friends with Reimu - May or may not be at the center of a love dodecahedron Rumia (arf arf bark) - T-posing machine - Can manipulate darkness, very bad at it - Canonically eats people Daiyousei (waving fairy) - Name is just “great fairy” - Pretty great - Also pretty irrelevant Cirno (ice fairy) - Absolute moron, little weak baby fairy - Still the strongest - Associated with the number 9 for reasons I won’t get into here - Very cool Hong Meiling (The asleep one) - Gate guard at the Scarlet Devil Mansion - Legendarily bad at guarding the gate - Knows martial arts - Associated with China Koakuma (the devil girl) - Name is just “little devil” - Has basically no actual lore, fanbase has gone wild Patchouli Knowledge (librarian) - Magician with a big library - Does not care about you - Living embodiment of asthma - People keep stealing her goddamn books Sakuya Izayoi (maid) - Maid at the Scarlet Devil Mansion - The only competent one - Can stop time, throws knives - Yes the DIO jokes are everywhere Sanae Kochiya (the one who gets kicked out of the video) - Does not appear for another 4 games ZUN (dude on the porch) - Creator of Touhou - Likes beer - Entirely self-taught somehow Remilia Scarlet (the high one) - Mistress of the Scarlet Devil Mansion - Actually a 500 year old vampire - Smug - Can control fate Flandre Scarlet (blows people up) - Younger sister if Remilia Scarlet - Also a vampire, still basically a psychopathic toddler - Has been banished to the basement for hundreds of years for being the worst - Has the power to literally just destroy anything - Never shows up again, still a fan favorite And that’s everything! Now go forth and get addicted to this goofy little franchise, not like you have anything better to do.
Flandre's part is a reference to how she has the power to destroy anything and everything, so if the spell card rules were not followed then she could just beat her enemies by making them explode.
Not gonna lie, the ending got me. Even if I haven't been playing or reading a lot of Touhou in recent years, Reimu, Marisa and the rest of Gensokyo will always have a place in me.
I went from understanding Fuck All about Touhou to knowing every single piece of Lore it had to offer just by this Video alone. Thank You, Screaming Hair Man

Yuyuko was a stage 1 and she can kill you without thinking
Ngl, no joke Icicle Fall still gets me(in Lunatic)
3:15 for non touhou fans, this character is Sanae Kochiya from Mountain of Faith. Sr Pelo puts her as an joke cuz she is compared with reimu in some fan work.
3:21 Thats Jun'ya Ota (ZUN) the creator of Touhou project. and in fanworks he always appears as an touhou character but in reality the main developer of all the official Touhou project games.
Green Mario but Touhou version.
Sanae wasnt allowed to appear yet by ZUN since she was only introduced in Touhou 10 :(
I thinked it was rin satsuki (an unused playable character for touhou 6)
GENIUUUS
@@yanastase I thought so too at first, but after looking closer, in the animation she has a frog hairband
Aight let's do this! If you're unfamiliar with Touhou or the memes in this video, I will attempt to explain most of the gags.
0:04 - The scarlet mist incident that menaced reaching all the way to the outside world was the trigger for the events of the game
0:09 - Reimu can just fly without wings or a broom, it's normal in this world. She heads out first as the main character while Marisa hangs back at the shrine.
0:19 - Rumia, who is the first boss, introduces players to the idea that the enemies aren't just cute girls, but also man-eating youkai
0:24 - Reimu's shrine maiden accessories are more than suited to handle youkai
0:32 - Despite being a mid-boss, poor Daiyousei gets no portrait nor spell cards to her name in this game, and quickly exits the stage for Cirno
0:42 - "Brainfreeze" here doesn't refer just to the effects of crushed ice, but also to the fact that Cirno is canonically an idiot, as said by ZUN in the manual of Touhou 9. She is labelled on the manual's legend's 9th entry as "Baka", and because of that has been nicknamed (9) ever since. Said circled nine can be seen on the cup.
0:48 - Also Cirno defeating herself with her own spell is a bit reminiscent of one of her spell cards on Easy mode offering her no protection from just standing in front of her (which contributed to her "idiot" labelling).
1:00 - Hong Meiling, the third boss, is commonly described as sleeping on her job of gatekeeper, allowing people to slip into the mansion. Sometimes she's also described as waking up right in time if someone actually tries. In this video she somehow does both.
1:22 - Reimu using a Grenade might be a reference to the "death bomb" mechanic of using a Bomb right when a projectile hits you.
1:23 - (found by Codex Marsema) - Meiling makes this sound in the game every time she moves around. every. time.
1:34 (by Fadillah) - This gag might refer to the fact that Meiling is one of the only characters who canonically use close combat techniques while everyone else uses ranged danmaku. It doesn't help her all that much here.
1:38 - These are the power ups and point collectibles left by defeated enemies, including bosses, and also the noise they make when you pick them up.
1:40 (addendum by @pokechao196) - Instead of going to the items to pick them up, Reimu walks away and crosses the "point of collection", which in the game lets you automatically collect every collectible on screen as can be seen here.
1:48 - Koakuma is the assistant of Patchouli, helping as she can with the library.
1:56 - The books are actual enemies in this stage
2:28 - Patchouli has a weak constitution, has asthma, is anaemic and has vitamin D deficiency from staying inside the library at all time
2:41 - As a professional Youkai exterminator, Reimu has no remorse bullying and exterminating weak fairies.
2:51 - Likewise, as Remilia Scarlet's head maid, Sakuya has no remorse disposing of humans or processing them into meals for her mistress. Oh and she can stop time like Dio.
3:13 - As Marisa gets tired of loitering and enters the stage, Sanae tries to sneak in, but ZUN sends her away, which is funny for several reasons. First off, she didn't exist at this point in the story, she might not even be in Gensokyo yet. Secondly her shrine is a competitor of Reimu's, and she'd love that the Hakurei Shrine become assimilated into the Moriya Shrine.
3:23 - ZUN also liked calling himself in official artbooks as one of the priests of the Hakurei Shrine, which makes him fit to keep the shrine in Reimu's absence
3:35 - "so~ nanoka~" floats over Rumia's head, which is her catchphrase. The Yin Yang orb also flies quite far when hit as seen in the first Touhou.
3:42 - Ok this might be my favourite gag. It's a callback to Touhou 1 "highly responsive to prayers" where Reimu can be hit by her own Yin Yang orb, causing her to lose a life and die with those same particle effects.
4:23 - Marisa's "Master Spark" Bomb attack. It's a big awesome laser that does the job. That's about it.
4:35 - Touhou being a danmaku, Reimu's sprite is much larger than her actual hitbox, allowing to easily dodge the knives without moving. Coming close to projectiles like so is called "grazing" and lets the player earn additional points (points let you get extra lives)
4:42 - Marisa stealing books from Patchouli is a recurring gag in fan works.
4:49 - So is Patchouli having feelings for Marisa (who only has to say her catchphrase "da ze" or just "ze"). Of course it's more of a love hate relationship as she'll chase Marisa when she tries to steal her books.
5:10 (hinted at by SrPelo himself) - Patchouli's boss theme is titled "Locked Girl ~ The Girl's Secret Room". Here Patchouli ends up being literally locked-in!
5:31 (by Fadillah) - Getting hit by one of the boss' projectiles AFTER defeating them and dying is a real risk in Touhou, watch out for that knife Reimu!
5:39 - Reimu and Marisa are rivals, and even used to be enemies early in the PC-98 games. But by that point they've already become friends, also since Marisa is one of the few people to visit Reimu at her shrine.
5:50 - Despite being defeated at the end of Stage 5, Sakuya comes back as Stage 6's midboss to try and shave at least one Bomb off the player before they meet her mistress (yes she literally breaks the 4th wall in the game)
5:55 - Marisa eating bread is a reference to her dialogue with Remilia when they meet in the game, which itself is a reference to Zeppeli and Dio meeting in Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. ("Do you remember how many breads have you eaten in your life?", to which Marisa replies 13 because she usually eats japanese food). Ironically, in this video it looks more like a Melon Bread, which is more of a typical japanese food.
6:01 (by Use Moar Meemz) - Remilia smoking is a reference to the fan animation "Silent Stoner in Blue" which is a short parody of the official Touhou Manga "Silent Sinner in Blue"
6:10 - Remilia is the culprit behind the scarlet mist incident. Her plan was to have the mist block the sun so she could come out during the day. Here though she just seems to be having a good time. Also Sakuya becomes distressed whenever her mistress displays a lack of charisma.
6:20 - Well many of her projectiles in the fights do look like big donuts.
6:24 - Reimu and Marisa finally die once, but they had some extra lives it appears.
6:34 - Marisa throwing a star is most likely a reference to her other Bomb attack called "Stardust Reverie"
6:43 - In most Touhou games, Reimu basically go beat up the ass of powerful youkai to set them straight. They usually have good relationships afterwards. Also her pose when crying is her crouching/guard position in the fighting games, which is also hilariously nicknamed Charisma BREAK.
6:58 - Beating the game without using any continues (aka, doing a "1CC") unlocks the Extra Stage and its Extra Boss, Flandre Scarlet, the little sister of Remilia, aged of barely 495 years, and still canonically (one of) the most overpowered character in the franchise lore-wise. To attempt to describe her power, she can move her opponents' weak points to the palm of her hand, and then crush it, instantly destroying them. I say opponents but it also works with inanimate things, like a big meteor. She's basically Shiki Tohno from Tsukihime except she doesn't even have to reach you to destroy you.
7:37 (by 彼岸花) - the art style of this sequence is reminiscent of Fantasy Kaleidoscope, a big Touhou fan animation project by Manpukujinja
7:38 (found by @Zinji) - People and items that disappear from our world tend to end up appearing randomly in Gensokyo. The animation that SrPelo lost all those years ago was therefore possibly found there. (because, since the events of Touhou actually occur in the present, Genskyo is hidden from the outside world by a magic barrier somewhere in Japan)
7:57 (by Codex Marsema) - That text-to-speech voice line and those heads are references to the Yukkuri Shiteitte ne! (Take it easy!) meme that stemmed from a lousy ASCII fanart of Reimy and Marisa's faces.
I think I got most of it, please let me know if you got other Touhou references I didn't get. I didn't list the obvious modern references like the BONK or Snoop Dogg.
Very informative!
Adding on to 1:38, the powerup items are only picked up as Reimu walks away and crosses the Point of Collection. In the games, the Point of Collection is a line near the top of the screen where items are automatically drawn towards the player if they pass it.
Thought Flandre was more alike "Killer Queen" stand from Jojo for her ability and her calm personality of the weilder of said stand
Just a small detail: canonically, Hecatia Lapislazuli is the most powerful character in the series, though her power is severely understated in her appearances. Flandre is still ridiculously powerful, but lore-wise she does fall short of some other characters like Yukari or Okina.
Nope, not readin that.
So after actually playing the game and reading the lore these are all references I could catch.
0:03 It’s what kicks off the events of the game, Remilia causes a mist to flow over Gensokyo and block the sun since she’s a vampire. Here though it’s just weed smoke.
0:19 Rumia says in game that she eats humans.
0:33 That’s Daiyousei, the midboss of stage 2. She doesn’t come back though and is thus overshadowed by Cirno soon after.
0:40 Cirno doesn’t actually have a spell card called Brainfreeze, but it’s supposed to mock the fact that she’s canonically an idiot. She’s described like that by the author in one book and is labeled as ⑨, which is where the number in the milkshake comes from.
0:57 That’s the gate of Scarlet Devil Mansion, which is guarded by Hong Meiling.
1:18 All the poses for spell cards in the video more or less replicate the ones from the game. This one is Reimu’s iconic pose doing the hand thingy.
1:38 Whenever you defeat an enemy they drop points that can increase your score and attack power.
1:49 That’s Koakuma, Patchouli’s assistant and the midboss of stage 4.
1:55 In stage 4 there are some book enemies that shoot stuff at you.
2:26 Patchouli canonically has bad health and asthma.
2:45 Sakuya is the maid of Remilia in the Scarlet Devil Mansion, she spends most of the time just cleaning the place.
3:22 That’s ZUN, the creator of the series and the guy that does most of the stuff in the games. I don’t really know who is that other girl before him though, if someone knows please tell me.
3:42 That’s a funny callback to Touhou 1, the first game in the PC-98 era, since there you can get killed by your own yin yang ball.
4:08 Sakuya’s main power is time control. She can do pretty much anything she wants with it, like stopping, reversing, erasing…
4:21 Master Spark is Marisa’s signature spell card, and the sound effect here is the same as in the game.
4:35 Graze is when you barely dodge an attack in the games. Reimu’s actual hurtbox is a circle much smaller than her sprite, which is why it seems like the knives just go right through her.
4:40 In the game Marisa teases Patchouli by saying she’s going to steal one of her books.
5:02 One of Patchouli’s spell cards uses fireballs just like these.
5:50 Sakuya comes back on stage 6 as a midboss right before the Remilia fight.
6:20 Remilia doesn’t have a spell card called Devil’s Dessert, but in many of her attacks she fires energy balls that do look a bit like donuts.
6:23 When you die in the games you just spawn right back in the same place, if you have lives of course.
6:41 Not really a reference to anything, but if you slow this part down by a lot you can kinda hear Remilia trash talking Reimu.
6:51 That’s the “fake” ending of the game. When you beat Remilia without using a continue you unlock the extra stage with Flandre as the boss, where the game actually ends.
7:00 Flandre is the most feared character in the game, even though she isn’t actually crazy, that’s a made up personality by the fandom. She has an ability that pretty much allows her to destroy anything she wants, which is what happened here.
Edit: It's with extreme satisfaction that I come back here one year later to tell you all that I finaly beat Flandre
Edit 2: It's with even more satisfaction that 3 months later I beat Flandre without using bombs
3:22 is Sanae Kochiya, she doesn't show up until later in the series though
Get this comment to the top
6:41 I tried slowing down to 25% speed to see if i could understand Remilia but that bonk sound was too hilarious was slowed down
3:18 That character is Sanae Kochiya from Touhou 10: Mountain of Faith. She starts off that game by demanding Reimu to hand over her shrine and essentially become a branch of Moriya Shrine. Reimu tells her to fuck off and then goes on a rampage. This scene is a reference to how Sanae wanted to take over Hakurei Shrine, but ZUN is telling her to GTFO because she hasn’t been introduced yet.
Also, there’s no evidence that Sakuya can reverse time. If she can, she hasn’t done it yet.
1:40 In the games, if you move far enough up screen, point and power-up objects that enemies drop will auto-collect. That’s what’s happening here, since Reimu moved “up screen” of Meiling’s body.
3:36 The hiragana circling Rumia’s head say “So nanoka,” a childish way of saying “is that so?” It’s considered to be Rumia’s catchphrase.
4:43 Marisa is absolutely a kleptomaniac. She’s known to have “borrowed” items from other people, and her house is littered with all sorts of crap she’s accumulated. I’m not sure if she has canonically stolen books from Patchouli’s library, but it’s a common occurrence in fan works.
4:49 “Ze” is Marisa’s catchphrase. It’s a masculine way to end sentences, and Marisa uses it all the time.
5:12 This is a play on Patchouli’s theme, “Locked Girl - The Girl’s Secret Room.” Here Marisa has locked her in her library, hence the joke.
5:55 Not a Touhou reference, but rather a JoJo reference. In Part 1, there’s a moment where Will Zeppeli asks Dio how many lives he sucked to heal his wounds, and Dio replies with “Do you remember how many breads have you eaten in your life?” Remilia is a vampire, as is Dio. (Edit: I forgot that Marisa actually references this line in the game.)

EDIT: I wasn't talking about whether or not it looked like anime. I was just referring to the fact that it looked good.

okay seriously I love everything about this, like the art conveys so much, the interpretation of everyone is fun and light hearted, I love how the punchline of the entire video is that it's just a storyboard that Marisa happens across, it's all brilliant
Also that end bit is a great reminder that behind all the memes, your art is absolutely stellar
Is this animation based on the first canon of the series? I know very little about Touhou but I know that the first canon is now ended and new started. Could this mean that main characters in the end are basically from the new canon? This might explain why the animation is a storyboard in their world
I mean, technically there's two separate canons: Touhou 1-5, which were on the PC-98, supposedly is mostly separate to Touhou 6 onwards, which are all on Windows. It's mostly because out of every single character in the first five games, only four returned in the Windows games: Reimu, Marisa, Yuuka (who cut her hair short and reappeared in 9) and Alice (who had a wardrobe change, grew a bit and came back in 8), while everyone else is yet to reappear in another official game since. I believe it's mostly because 1-5 were made while ZUN was part of a team, and he likely had trouble getting the rights to all of them when he became a solo developer between 5 and 6.
@@Mr._Sherwood ah, i see. So the animation is based on T6, right?
Yep, it's based off of 6.
@@Mr._Sherwood The copyright thing is a popular myth related to PC-98 Touhou.
Yep it's true he asked to help with his games to his student computer club, but even in PC-98 he has was still mostly solo dev (well he once liked to write music for some obscure indie games or even early Windows Touhou era fan games, but it's a totally different story not related to this one).
Truth is why ZUN wants to PC-98 to be separate from the Windows era, as he said in one of his reviews with him, It's because he took too much inspiration for plots and characters and mechanics from his favourite media like games, mangas and animes where he was reading or watching or playing at this time and was enjoying it. And many characters, plots or mechanics were mostly parodies or just inspired by it too much. And he thinks there is mostly no use for mostly non-serious PC-98 characters in now more steady Windows's canon (also he didn't want to base his creations too much on someones else ideas like in the past).
I can Imagine some kid in dodge ball using Touhou logic to justify why he isn’t out because the ball slightly grazed him
The gym teacher had to put in a "no deathbombing" rule after students started using hand grenades to explode the ball before it could hit them

Happy 20th anniversary, _Embodiement of Scarlet Devil!_
Lo lograste, hermano ¡LO LOGRASTE!, Vaya que 8 minutos de animación no es para tomarse a la ligera! Me tomó muy de sorpresa la ultima parte jajajaja. Qué forma tan genial de rendirle tributo a este juego, ya me imagino lo gracioso que será ver las video reacciones de las personas que no tienen la menor idea qué es Touhou! Excelente trabajo!!!
Finalmente
Xd tambien pense eso de lo graciosos que debe ser ver la reacción de gente que no cacha en touhou
Un grande ideologia inversa

Ah Yes, Flandre getting as much screentime as she does in the series, so proud of her.
As do alot of boses
@@usagibnuuy2070 they did daiyousei and koakuma dirty
true but in that screentime she accomplished more than the rest of the characters did in 8 minutes

Imagine if he makes Perfect Cherry Blossom one, there's just a pink hair girl stabbing herself under a tree. Would also like to see Mokou and Kaguya screaming eachother in a high pitched tone

There is just a pink hair GIRL stabbing HIMSELF??? Somethings off

こういう場面カットが弾幕勝負をシューティング東方ゲームの良さ、日本だけど幻想郷のような異世界はないのに自分の解釈で広かったキャラクターの存在する幻想郷があるのは作り込み者として最高な気分。他の国と同じように東方の人気ぶりは知名度抜群。こういうサウンドとクセ強の個性が何でもあう東方はきっと無い。ペロス氏に感謝。

Gajin Hunter: "I think the best way to introduce you to this series, is through the music and characters"
Pelo, good job.
i like the touhou 1 ~ Highly Responsive to Prayers referance and the fact that u had put ZUN in the animation there. really great stuff man. keep it up.
I like how Sakuya acts like a dissapointed parent when she sees Remilia smoking
Mom’s mad.
Indeed
If fanon is anything to go by.... She IS a disappointed parent.
I think she is mad against herself because she let Reimu and Marisa passed her and find her mistress
like what I read
remilia: around 500 yrs old omg
sakuya:20 or less idk
sakuya acts disappointed because her MOM is smokin’ every day
As a non touhou fan, this video feels like a lucid dream
Same
Why lucid? You can't control how the video goes
fever dream would go better
Yes
@@Bobbies1 once you fall into the rabbit hole you can't get out
2:26 this is a slight nod to the fact that Patchouli is fucking anemic and dying
This is actually pretty funny.
that’s literally me, i’m coughing as we speak
3:38 that face of Rumia LMAO 🤣
4:34 Perfect explanation for Reimu's hit-box
Meanwhile Marisa’s is PHAT
Letty Hitbox lol
Atom-sized hitbox
I can't believe Reimu giving Marisa a high-five instead of completely ignoring her was so satisfying to me, finally the status quo remains untouched
Hello everyone who doesn’t know anything about Touhou! Here is a basic explanation of everything you need to know to get the funny and get sucked into the eternal rabbit hole that is Touhou! Don’t worry, this won’t take long.
Touhou
- Is a series of top-down shooters (think Galaga),
- Specifically “bullet hell” shooters (exactly what it sounds like)
- But with anime girls (and awesome music, neat setting, etc.)
- Also a titan of the early internet, spawning memes, fan works, spin-offs, and much more
- One advantage of getting into Touhou: you will literally never run out of new content, the fans have created mountains of manga, fan games, videos, memes, even an actual anime
- Touhou is set in Gensokyo, a land cut off from our world where all the things humans don’t care about/believe in anymore go (so basically it’s full of youkai (monsters) and old stuff)
- The plot this time: an old mansion ends up in Gensokyo, and the mansion’s head decides to try and assert dominance by throwing mist everywhere, so our hero Reimu goes to beat up the mansion’s owner and get them to behave
THE CHARACTERS (in order of appearance in video)
Reimu Hakurei (the shrine maiden)
- Keeps up the barrier between our world and Gensokyo
- Responsible for dealing with whatever stupid things the youkai do
- Does not have the patience to deal with their garbage
- Probably poor
Marisa Kirisame (the witch)
- Literally just a human who knows magic (massive laser)
- Kleptomaniac
- Best friends with Reimu
- May or may not be at the center of a love dodecahedron
Rumia (arf arf bark)
- T-posing machine
- Can manipulate darkness, very bad at it
- Canonically eats people
Daiyousei (waving fairy)
- Name is just “great fairy”
- Pretty great
- Also pretty irrelevant
Cirno (ice fairy)
- Absolute moron, little weak baby fairy
- Still the strongest
- Associated with the number 9 for reasons I won’t get into here
- Very cool
Hong Meiling (The asleep one)
- Gate guard at the Scarlet Devil Mansion
- Legendarily bad at guarding the gate
- Knows martial arts
- Associated with China
Koakuma (the devil girl)
- Name is just “little devil”
- Has basically no actual lore, fanbase has gone wild
Patchouli Knowledge (librarian)
- Magician with a big library
- Does not care about you
- Living embodiment of asthma
- People keep stealing her goddamn books
Sakuya Izayoi (maid)
- Maid at the Scarlet Devil Mansion
- The only competent one
- Can stop time, throws knives
- Yes the DIO jokes are everywhere
Sanae Kochiya (the one who gets kicked out of the video)
- Does not appear for another 4 games
ZUN (dude on the porch)
- Creator of Touhou
- Likes beer
- Entirely self-taught somehow
Remilia Scarlet (the high one)
- Mistress of the Scarlet Devil Mansion
- Actually a 500 year old vampire
- Smug
- Can control fate
Flandre Scarlet (blows people up)
- Younger sister if Remilia Scarlet
- Also a vampire, still basically a psychopathic toddler
- Has been banished to the basement for hundreds of years for being the worst
- Has the power to literally just destroy anything
- Never shows up again, still a fan favorite
And that’s everything! Now go forth and get addicted to this goofy little franchise, not like you have anything better to do.
Damn Pelo needs to pin this so that the kiddos here and other know about it and stop calling him a weeb and asking why he made an “anime” animation XD
pelo needs to pin this comment
@@L30GH05TDUD3 bro i literally have no idea what this touhou is but the effort put on this video looks NICE.
Me knowing what "yokai" mean thanks at an old game called "yokai watch":
U forgot to put hey mister in remilia’s résumé
素晴らしい作品をありがとう！
>silence
>takes a tiny step
Floor: *makes the loudest sound known to sr pelo*
5:20 *pokes vase, goes off like a nuke*
I like how everyone's faces are like shoes and Reimu's face is a square
And then theres Meiling, with something completely different
Dai Is Oval lol
she got a refined jawline
Snoopies
Meanwhile Zun and Sanae
Flandre's part is a reference to how she has the power to destroy anything and everything, so if the spell card rules were not followed then she could just beat her enemies by making them explode.
Yea you can see her grasping both Reimu and Marisa and then detonating them with the third gesture. Very close attention to detail.
I have watched this video so many times I can literally recreate every character's movements and facial expressions in every scene from memory.
3:40 i like that when Reimu gets hit by the Yin Yang Orb she does the Highly Responsive to Prayers death animation
oh shit you're right. Very cool detail.
I actually didn’t notice that until now, thanks.
I actually didn't notice holy shit
Ö
All those clips have been leading to this moment. I am Hella HYPED.
I remeber a clip of pelo laughing of someone who siad in his chat "pongan cuties"
Translation:play cuties
Lol
Yes
True!
Yep well worth the wait, The little end bit was I surprise.
@@Madjac04 yeah worth the wait
Not gonna lie, the ending got me. Even if I haven't been playing or reading a lot of Touhou in recent years, Reimu, Marisa and the rest of Gensokyo will always have a place in me.
旧作要素も入っているのに愛を感じます！！
とても面白かったです！
I LOVE how reimu dies exactly like HRtP when she gets hits by the yinyang orb
*pichuun*
Old classic refernce right there.
Fuck that orb
Normal audiences: lol whats this
Touhou fans: *wheezing intensifies*
Accurate lol
Can agree LMAO XD
Normal audiences "why are there anime girl lmfao "
@@jojotard5027 you'd still be a fan of touhou and not have a clue why there's anime girls
Exactly
I went from understanding Fuck All about Touhou to knowing every single piece of Lore it had to offer just by this Video alone. Thank You, Screaming Hair Man
