Since a couple people have mentioned Rinnosuke, his existence doesn't really give an answer. There are ways in which a half-youkai baby can be formed other than a happy loving relationship.
Well maybe? But since I think he is yokai by blood which is why poeple assume it is possible to have children with yokai (even if its how Zues does it :/ ) unless there is something like fate and the creation of Dead Apostles where you get bitten or something by a yokai. Kourin is just very interesting factor in this question
@@OrgusDin Sex. There are youkai that take human forms and bang men. There's even old legends such as the crane wife and a story of a kitsune marrying a human and having children. So sex. Just like any animal.
"Stop fantasizing about procreating with youkai! Humans belong with human! Humans shouldn't procreate with youkai! Humans shouldn't become youkai! Humans shouldn't be friends with youkai!" Reimu Hakurei, CEO of Racism
Thing is, the youkai of Touhou are shaped a lot by what humans believe about them. Kogasa for example started as just a sentient umbrella that sucked at jumpscares, but later also became a skilled blacksmith, probably because villagers mistook her for a similar-looking youkai with such skills. So if people believe youkai can be romanced, it's gonna be possible. Might be risky depending on who you're interested in, but if monster girls are already your thing I'm sure you'll find a way to make it work, you brave soul.
In Mongolian myth, it is said a boy was taken in by a she-wolf after a brutal battle, and she tended to his wounds. And then he said "We'll bang, OK?" And they did. That's how the Mongols were made.
This was an elaborate way of saying the yearning for cat girlfriends is not only universal, but has been universal (at least in Japan) for thousands of years.
It's been confirmed in mythology that Medusa uses that to her advantage, which is why she was such a problem in the first place. The irony is that in some versions of the tale, her head is used by Athena for her shield, Athena being the very reason why Medusa's hair is composed of snakes because Medusa's beauty induced extreme levels of jealousy in Athena. Remember, Medusa was already a beautiful Gorgon woman in a trio of sisters. The curse Athena sets on her only affects her hair and her face is still viewed as "divine" in the eyes of human men.
@@DR3ADER1 Actually, there are versions of the myth where Medusa was born human and turned into a gorgon as a curse for having intercourse within a temple. The other two gorgons were born that way (they also had wings and could fly), and Medusa was basically forced into becoming their new roommate.
Here's your friendly reminder that, canonically, Rinnousuke is half human, and half youkai. Which means that his parents did the whole human-youkai romance thing before it was cool! So it is canon to Touhou that not only are humans and Youkai able to get together, but it's happened before. ... Heck, Youmu is half human, and half _ghost!_ (Which is odd since, IIRC, her grandfather was _also_ half-phantom, so either that's not a literal half, or their family line has had a lot of humans and ghosts shacking up.)
Emphasis on "before it's been cool". That's crazy, because as far as I understand Yokai-Human relations supposedly used to be a LOT less relaxed before they all started chilling at Reimus place.
@@RyuHardGore In the case of Youmu: She's a living human, but her soul exists separate from her body, meaning her soul is technically a ghost... Apparently, this state makes her body physically colder than a regular human's and her ghost half warmer than a regular ghost.
Dating/living with youkai would gurantee one thing - complete chaos and non stop trouble/shenenigans. Like being teleported to Chad because Yukari thought it would be funny, getting to lucky and being hunted by gangs/casinos/Reimu because Mamizou heard you complain " you don't do your job as a tanuki", being on other Gods hitlist for engaging with their rival God ( also goes for rival religions) because it would be like like killing the dog of your enemy ect ... You are living with the beings that constantly try to break their boredom in their own way. If you can roll with it and make it the norm, all the more power to you. Just remember what you signed up for. Definetly wouldn't be boring, that's for sure.
Plot Twist: You find a way to survive all that BS and get to level up to a menacing Youkai or Deity. Congratulations: You now get to be on the big girl table like everyone else.
There's only 1 thing wrong with this video. The fact that the "magical wife" trope is referred to as Japanese when in reality it is literally everywhere, and I mean EVERYWHERE in mythology and folklore. Right down to tales of animals leaving their "coat" and turning into beautiful women that inevitably get involved with a man who inevitably loses them as theh get back into their coat, turn back into an animal and leave them.
I think the biggest obstacle is smell. Some youkak are hairy, live in water, or flat out made from #2 in the toilet. How they would smell would determine if they activate neurons or not and from there if people would go the extra mile
The greatest crime in recent memory is that women get all these stories where they get to date vampires and werewolves, but all the stories where men chase, or are chased by monster girls, always ends up with horrid and tragic endings. I suspect something is afoot.
I'd honestly just want to befriend Touhou youkais above else - learning gardening from Yuuka, chilling with Cirno, pestering Sekibanki with head puns, etc. Dunno why, but that fantasy appeals to me a lot more than any "forbidden romance" story, since these characters are just too inherently lovable.
I think Gensokyo supports that more than anything, honestly. This was more a vehicle to talk about how the perception of yokai has evolved in Japanese culture.
I mean I agree but like... if you're dating someone you would more than likely share with them just as much if not more than if they were just friends lol so this kinda applies either way doesn't it?
I could actually hangout with Aunn and Kyouko. They're two of the youkai characters that make me realize how friendly and beautiful Gensokyo is. Green-haired doggos for life.
Dangers in Gensokyo is always either two op woman started fighting over some stupid stuff, or go outside the village and you will be get eaten by youkai.
Instead of dating, being friends would be more beneficial, since they would have weird stories to tell and would make life much more entertaining with their spiritual abilities.
This raises the question of what the fuck a youkai's genome looks like. If they can make babies with humans they presumably have one, but since their existence is defined by our belief, wtf would that create in regards to dna?

In fact, thanks to him being born from a yokai mother, he could order around weak oni when he was five.
@@GensouChronicleI want you to personally mail me the original script as i am currently working on a research about the connection of youkai industry and quantum physics so your script would be a great help.
Fear is not the opposite of love, and sometimes it leads to curiosity then to interest and maybe to attraction. Maybe in Youkai we have come to love what we have feared
@@haiperbus ah yes, an inuyasha but touhou _also who did it first: an human girl with a ghost man or ghost woman with human man, and how is that even possible?_
@@haiperbus Youmu claims that the Konpaku clan is specifically a lineage of half-phantoms. While it may still be possible that a human and a phantom procreated to create a half-phantom, it's also possible that being a half-phantom is a specific trait passed on and is considered a dominant trait. I mean, Youmu comes from the half-phantom clan of the Konpaku, so at least one of her parents has to be a half-phantom in the first place. Either there's actually many clans of half-phantoms for Youki to pair with or Youmu's not actually exactly "half and half". Either those or Youmu just doesn't know how her clan works.
5:16 This does reminds me of her interactions on a touhou +18 dating game. The more you interact and the more she gets fond of you. The more her character develops. She even gets conflicted if she should continue what she should do as an Amanojaku at you or just simply accepts her feelings for you. Yeah the game definitely went with the "I can fix her" but it was enjoyable(and very difficult because it takes way longer compared to other characters).
I think I know what 18+ game your talking about. I really like that game characterizations (most of them) in general. I like the interactions you can have with the grassroots network. The the dialogue with some characters when having convos. Also the forbidden love trope can be appealing after being with one character for a long time, and actually going through their route. Its interesting
I would date Yukari just so we can go on hijinks together for the rest of time. Considering she can expand my life and death border she could even make me immortal.
The phrase "is not flanderization, it's a celebration" is way too powerful, right alongside "is not memetic of real life, but of literary tradition". Also, this video gives me hope to someday date cute and lovely Udonge.
The answer is yes. Yes. YES. YEEES. Fluffy fox tails, ultimate gawk-gawk-3000 necks, and cold beauties. Still find it funny that yuki-onna and kitsune are the most canonically written to conceive in a lot of tales.
I like how showing an entire tanuki, huge nutstack and all, on-screen at 2:23 is completely fine for youtube. Presumably, as long as the video itself doesn't explain what's actually being shown. I get that the Monster Girl Encyclopida Vol.2 cover is questionably SFW at best (plus, I can just look at my own copy), but the notion that woodblock prints of tanuki and their enormous scrotums are safe because "it's art history" makes me giggle.
I think its just the AI not picking up on the huge scrote since it hasn't been trained on traditional Japanese art like it has been trained on Anime/Hentai.
@@sumfagola "It hasn't been trained on traditional art like it has been trained on hentai." We spent so long worrying that AI might turn into Skynet, that we could have never predicted that it would instead turn into a degenerate!
I really wasn't expecting this video to be so informative about not just Touhou but also history, consider me clickbaited and happy. Excellent video, kudos!!
See now the spicier next territory to discuss is how two youkais of different species would procreate. Half-youkai exists but it's mostly been half-humans, so could there be two halves of different youkai in one person? Now what if two people that are half-youkai² got together? 4 youkai lineages with 1/4 of each? Maybe some youkai traits are genetically dominant and some are recessive? Imagine the Punnett Squares we could make with this! Youmu is from the Konpaku lineage of half-phantoms so at least one of her parents must be a half-phantom; are both her parents half-phantoms or is Youmu genetically not actually exactly half-phantom?
Yes, This exactly what I'm thinking! I avoided this video because of this topic (rip recommended)... and because there is already an answer! From Cage in Lunatic Runagate, from Youmu's website profile. "Having a phantom and a human as her parents, she is half-human half-spirit characterized by a large phantom always at the side of the human figure."
Lets just put this into context - THE Court Astrologer, Abe no Seimei, claims one side of his ancestral heritage is from a kitsune. Also, O-Yuki the snow woman canonically gave her husband 13 children. In other words, if you are damn sure you won't become lunch or dinner, go forth and give the world some halves.
Kinda reminds me of how some works are looked at differently years after their creators die. Such as paintings, but there's also Beowulf (which took what, 12 centuries?), thanks to Tolkien. I wonder how many people still know how tulpas used to be a trend on the Western internet in like 2000s and early 2010s. (Are they still? I barely see mentions of them online anymore) And I am pretty sure some of these people went hard, like legal insanity level of tulpamancy. Humans are weird man. -anyway I just want to hold hands with Patchouli-

I realized halfway through that I was being jebaited into listening to a Touhou fan ramble on about youkai, but I like your funny words, magic man, so here I am at the end of the video having thoroughly enjoyed myself.
Using the fact that media exists already in the human world depicting such a relationship and is commonplace as the reason it would also exist in Gensokyo feels like an obvious reason I’d never thought of lol
When I was young, I was conflicted over the ethics of marrying a human. You see, there was a human I cared for very much - but, I wasn’t trying to mate with him, I was just trying to help him with his troubles. (His girlfriend was, basically, a fox.) Sorry if my sentence structure is weird. I’m Australian. Anyway, it’s very painful to fall in love with a human. I personally will avoid such a think. I , instead, decided it would be logical to marry someone similar to myself. (Humans would probably call him a tiger dragon.) Duty of disclosure: I am not a yokai. (I’m not from Japan.) Edit: Don’t be sad. My human friend is doing very well now. I still love him dearly, but as a friend - you understand?

They might eat us in a different way. (:
"Would you?"
Is that even a question?
5:16 This does reminds me of her interactions on a touhou +18 dating game. The more you interact and the more she gets fond of you. The more her character develops. She even gets conflicted if she should continue what she should do as an Amanojaku at you or just simply accepts her feelings for you. Yeah the game definitely went with the "I can fix her" but it was enjoyable(and very difficult because it takes way longer compared to other characters).
I think I know what 18+ game your talking about. I really like that game characterizations (most of them) in general. I like the interactions you can have with the grassroots network. The the dialogue with some characters when having convos. Also the forbidden love trope can be appealing after being with one character for a long time, and actually going through their route. Its interesting
The person who wrote all her dialogue is pretty cool.
@@GensouChronicle why do I have the feeling that it was you who wrote it? XD
@@AomgarHow 18+ we talking? Like is the story worth trying it out despite it?
@@nekokoishi I can promise you I'm not. I'm already stretched thin as it is on other projects.
Them: can you date a youkai?
Me: not if reimu exists
I don't think I can easily expect what to watch this channel anymore lmao. This was the LAST thing I expected, but it was so fun as well.
I like keeping people on their toes. At least it's lore-related.
@@GensouChronicle 'Which 2hu has the best toes?' Imagine that video title, haha. Wouldn't that smell amazi-be amazing guys? Haha.
I can’t believe a video with this title just appeared in my subscription feed.
Good video as always 👍
Just that last 20 seconds alone and how you couldn't even say that one line without laughing is enough for me to subscribe.
Lol
so you're telling me there's a chance.....
I would date Yukari just so we can go on hijinks together for the rest of time. Considering she can expand my life and death border she could even make me immortal.
Came for the waifus, stayed for the cultural analysis of Japanese mythology
BASED
The phrase "is not flanderization, it's a celebration" is way too powerful, right alongside "is not memetic of real life, but of literary tradition".
Also, this video gives me hope to someday date cute and lovely Udonge.
Thanks. I really liked that phrase as well. And you go get that bunny.
Why did you remind me that we're still waiting for Vector Spectacle Chapter 6 . You shot me dead with no warning cmon.
I'm taking everyone down with me.
The answer is yes. Yes. YES. YEEES. Fluffy fox tails, ultimate gawk-gawk-3000 necks, and cold beauties. Still find it funny that yuki-onna and kitsune are the most canonically written to conceive in a lot of tales.
RAN YAKUMO HERE I COME
That video was strangely informative and insightful. I definitely didn't expect that. You've earned a sub.
The moment you mentioned Zeus, I saw it coming. Nice uptake on it. Keep up the good work.
Thanks, will do!
5:22 the best ones in touhou have the most red flags
Looking at you, Yukari.
Came for a comedic anatomy lesson stayed for the interesting history.
This video is very helpful, thank you for the information. I will enjoy using it.
Go get em.
Personally I think having a fox yokai would be the ideal wife.
I like how showing an entire tanuki, huge nutstack and all, on-screen at 2:23 is completely fine for youtube. Presumably, as long as the video itself doesn't explain what's actually being shown.
I get that the Monster Girl Encyclopida Vol.2 cover is questionably SFW at best (plus, I can just look at my own copy), but the notion that woodblock prints of tanuki and their enormous scrotums are safe because "it's art history" makes me giggle.
The world's a funny place, ain't it?
I think its just the AI not picking up on the huge scrote since it hasn't been trained on traditional Japanese art like it has been trained on Anime/Hentai.
@@sumfagola
"It hasn't been trained on traditional art like it has been trained on hentai."
We spent so long worrying that AI might turn into Skynet, that we could have never predicted that it would instead turn into a degenerate!
I really wasn't expecting this video to be so informative about not just Touhou but also history, consider me clickbaited and happy. Excellent video, kudos!!
See now the spicier next territory to discuss is how two youkais of different species would procreate. Half-youkai exists but it's mostly been half-humans, so could there be two halves of different youkai in one person? Now what if two people that are half-youkai² got together? 4 youkai lineages with 1/4 of each? Maybe some youkai traits are genetically dominant and some are recessive?
Imagine the Punnett Squares we could make with this!
Youmu is from the Konpaku lineage of half-phantoms so at least one of her parents must be a half-phantom; are both her parents half-phantoms or is Youmu genetically not actually exactly half-phantom?
You see, when daddy loves mommy a lot...
i really think Sekibanki might be one as she has traits of 2 diffrent types of cryptids, Rokurokubi, and dullahan
Yes, This exactly what I'm thinking! I avoided this video because of this topic (rip recommended)... and because there is already an answer! From Cage in Lunatic Runagate, from Youmu's website profile.
"Having a phantom and a human as her parents, she is half-human half-spirit characterized by a large phantom always at the side of the human figure."
when's half yokai three coming out
the intro is amazing
I enjoyed the background lore of youkai and how they came to where they are today.
6:20
They not keep us away from danger, they are THE danger
As unhinged as it sounds, the title of the video is actually interesting question
Is it truly worth it to risk the chance the moment youre alone with one it bites through your skull like a jaguar? (yes)
Coming back with banger videos as always
Always.
Honestly, I would easily take a single date with utsuho above even my life
those last 10 seconds were unhinged
"Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should."
~Dr. Ian Malcom, Jurrasic Park (1993)
"Science isn't about "Why?", it's about "Why not?!" ~Cave Johnson, Portal 2 (2011)
That fontcest jumpscare nearly gave me whiplash.
Shorter answer: Yes, you can date Yokai, because we have made it "Canon" to do so. You need to be extremely willing to do so though
This is a vector spectacle appreciation post.
Hokuto-sensei I am begging you on my KNEES.
Now I feel like there will be a Smash Or Pass on Touhou characters
Lets just put this into context - THE Court Astrologer, Abe no Seimei, claims one side of his ancestral heritage is from a kitsune. Also, O-Yuki the snow woman canonically gave her husband 13 children. In other words, if you are damn sure you won't become lunch or dinner, go forth and give the world some halves.
Whatever conclusion is made, it's not stopping me.
That's the spirit.
A few months behind this video, but watching it for..... reasons. A good one as always.
Kinda reminds me of how some works are looked at differently years after their creators die. Such as paintings, but there's also Beowulf (which took what, 12 centuries?), thanks to Tolkien.
I wonder how many people still know how tulpas used to be a trend on the Western internet in like 2000s and early 2010s. (Are they still? I barely see mentions of them online anymore)
And I am pretty sure some of these people went hard, like legal insanity level of tulpamancy. Humans are weird man.
-anyway I just want to hold hands with Patchouli-
That's a good comparison. Everything becomes molded by collective perception.
I mean, ZUN did show us the way in a conveniently packed, highschooler looking way.
0:30 nah bro thought we wouldn’t notice also where did he get that I think we might need a statement from his FBI agent
Funny story, actually. I found a physical copy of it while in Japan. The title stuck with me so much I had to look it up when I returned to the states and I decided it would be funny to throw it in a video.
@@GensouChronicleI’m not talking about the book I’m talking about the rule 34 ah thing unless you were talking about the rule 34 thing then I’m concerned for japan
@@WhatdoyoucalablindgermanAnosee the undertale cover, right?
@@GensouChronicle nah not the undertale cover either guess again it has a squid and a bob
@@WhatdoyoucalablindgermanAnosee that's like... a basic edit someone did? you can find that anywhere...
Finally.
I can ship Scout TF2 with Cirno Touhou with a pure mind.
Well, 'pure' mind.
I've been wondering about this recently, thanks for the encouragement :D
Ok now i know how make Yukari Yakumo my wife, thanks GensouChronicle.
A mortal, with a magical being?
So like... being the opposite of Zeus?
The real question is, who is going to stop me to do it?
Akyuu with her triple cross punch. :👊
Masochists would enjoy that. Not saying I am one.
Smartman and good content, he got all of us 💀
This channel always baits me using my most basical instincts and yet always gives me something better. This is the best thing that happened to me so far
thanks!
3:45 Yokai Watch mentioned!!! (Also if you want to date a Yokai just use a forbidden fruit smh my head)
"Bro I swear I could fix Seija/Rumia/Nemuno."
Human in charge of recovering dead bodies: "Found him."
Thats it I'm subscribing
"We were too preoccupied with whether we would that we didn't stop to consider if we could."
"I can can fix her bro trust"
I realized halfway through that I was being jebaited into listening to a Touhou fan ramble on about youkai, but I like your funny words, magic man, so here I am at the end of the video having thoroughly enjoyed myself.
Kogasa is definitely dateable probably a very good choice too tbh
Using the fact that media exists already in the human world depicting such a relationship and is commonplace as the reason it would also exist in Gensokyo feels like an obvious reason I’d never thought of lol
I love Seija
Same. She's perfect.
You mean you hate Seija
As long as she doesn't drain my bankroll with make-up, I am all ears for it...
When I was young, I was conflicted over the ethics of marrying a human. You see, there was a human I cared for very much - but, I wasn’t trying to mate with him, I was just trying to help him with his troubles. (His girlfriend was, basically, a fox.)
Sorry if my sentence structure is weird. I’m Australian.
Anyway, it’s very painful to fall in love with a human. I personally will avoid such a think. I , instead, decided it would be logical to marry someone similar to myself. (Humans would probably call him a tiger dragon.)
Duty of disclosure: I am not a yokai. (I’m not from Japan.)
Edit: Don’t be sad. My human friend is doing very well now. I still love him dearly, but as a friend - you understand?
Elaborate.
Yeah please, can you elaborate cause that doesn't right man.
Average Australian
What?
That intro. THAT INTRO. It has me rolling. A perfect 10/10
