I am aware that some details provided in this video are not sourced from canon Touhou sources. I have done my best to stay true to the spirit and story of Touhou, only adding details where provided by the source myths that inspired the Touhou Project.
Additionally, the distinction between heavenly gods and earthly gods is a very hard distinction to retroactively write into these characters. Very few gods in the Touhou Project are specified to be one or the other, as modern Shintoism no longer makes a distinction between the two types of gods. Some characters may be wrongly categorized.
I do not read or speak Japanese. Some names may be poorly pronounced. Japanese subtitles, where used, were machine-translated. Translations of English phrases and romanization of Japanese artist/musician names may not be accurate.
This video has been in production for a very long time. I am aware its many flaws, and I am simply satisfied to be done with it.
when do you think the next part is coming out
This has got to be one of the highest quality "Touhou documentary" videos I've seen. Props to you man.
The Kanako and Suwako story is good enough to be its own fan series. That art of the two of them sitting in the modern world slowly fading away though DAMN
Holy shit this is high quality. Assuming this quality continues, you might be the next big TouhouTuber
I haven't familiarized myself with Touhou lore after 15, but it's nice to see that the mythology was expanded in such an interesting way. Thanks for the primer!
Same, I left the fandom a few years ago for the most part and now there's more games to get acquainted with. Not to mention, the given that I'll realize more things about it now that I'm older.
Suwako in thumbnail epic ❤
Great
Happy to get more information espiecially on keiki.
Edit : it's mostly that i knew keiki had control over the human spirits, but still no idea of the bad side of her relation with them.
I've always enjoyed informative videos revolving around touhou but this is by far the highest quality vid I've found yet.
Thank you! It's the kind of video that I wanted to see more of too, so I decided I might as well make it myself and make it as good as it can be.
Man, It's nice to see more Touhou lore videos! This is really underappreciated!
Extremely educational
Waited til the weekend to sit down and watch this and it was so worth that wait! This has to be a contender for the best video you've released yet, and the fact it hasn't been grabbed by the algorithm yet is a fucking SIN. Keep up the fantastic work for as long as it makes you happy, because everything you put out is incredible and just keeps getting better,,
Great Video!
very informative!
And the production quality ... very good!
I wish you the best of luck to reach the subscriber count you deserve.
with you and MegaPig there are really only a handful of people covering this niche of Touhou Lore content, right now.
Now I want to hear MegaFrog make an audio book.
Anyone else up for a novelization of Mountain of Faith? Or any other game, really.
What an amazing video through and through. I was happily surprised by the dialogue at the start
u have a good audio voice, unexpectedly high quality for your channel size
Thank you! My audio quality has noticeably improved over the course of the last few videos.
This is what i expect out of this channel! Amazing work
Kinda odd you didn't mention Sanae. She's an arahitogami, a god who's also a human. Also I suppose you're covering Okina in a future episode. And Misumaru, although we knows pretty much nothing about her yet.
Also you missed several other minor gods, although most of these are nameless, one-shot minor characters from the manga so it's understandable.
- A tree that Reimu accidentally made into a god during a flower viewing party, then accidentally killed because she's a terrible shrine maiden.
- A tree rat that the villagers started worshipping because it survived unscathed when the tree it lives in was burnt by lightning.
- A traveler god that warned Reimu when she was lost. I remember this because Reimu's reaction was "wow gods are real after all" followed by Marisa and Kasen facepalm.
- A hunger god that plagues worshippers to the Hakurei shrine.
Maybe some others? Been a while since I last read the manga.
The whole "religion brings existence to magic in Gensokyo" and "faith keeps youkai and gods alive" parts of the lore, as well as the Outside World's rising belief in science and atheism being unknowingly harmful, is a part of the lore that is honestly pretty hurtful. It makes me think; What if more Gensokyo-like pocket dimensions in other parts of the world could arise thanks to other gap youkai or goddesses fearing this rise of forgetting and unknown power of humanity? Does magic exist if everyone agrees to believe in it, giving a big downside to the rise of technology?
It makes me feel terrible about the Outside World. How could a place sell its soul to technology, bringing all these wonderful youkai to near extinction without even trying to keep religion in place as compromise? Of course, even if a lot of youkai eat humans and cause trouble, others are beautiful and make the world so much more interesting. I can sympathize with outsiders staying in Gensokyo, like Sanae, Sumireko, and even Yumemi and Chiyuri; Even if they like science, they want to live in a world where youkai exist, so they agree to believe in gods and compromise. It makes me wonder if Gensokyo could expand not by changing its place to a realm not tied to Earth, but if Japan somehow reverted back to its ways, possibly even giving Gensokyo a sea it is known to lack.
I would've skipped the start with Mayumi and Saki's argument, but I watched it with the rest and it was chilling. I never thought of Saki like that, but I feel like she would say such things. This, the chapter with Chimata having lost power due to the internet, and even the role of Kutaka made me realize how the newer games are going and how they're contributing to the lore. The newest games are less about whimsical places of religion and magic, and more about cheating, capitalism, despicable drama, and mainly; the evils of humans simply being more aware, though forgetting their belief makes things reality. I wonder if ZUN is okay, since it's really concerning, and sort of a dark turn for the series to simply just explain game gimmicks(though I'm aware they're introduce mainly for those).
I love franchises that are basically playgrounds for fanwork with how much they have, yet so much they leave out. Touhou gives me so much inspiration, that I don't know where to even start, even if I have a fan character for it. Thank you for giving us this video.
Thank for this content, I've enjoyed the intro especially the voice acting :)
Kudos for the lore study.
This needs more views.
That is one funny frog
I'm glad you feel relieved after finally having finished and published this.
I really enjoyed my time here (after I skipped the first part, which I sadly did not enjoyed at all even though you spend so much effort into making it. I am sorry for that.)
The first sentence of your acknowledgments in your pinged comment is very important and should always be the very first thing to be shown and said on lore videos that go so heavily into interpretation/fanwork/fanfiction territory. So that people unfamiliar with Touhou Project know that majority of content shown is not very/or at all accurate. And not at the very end as a small remark.
Please continue making your content as long as you enjoy making it. I will always watch even tho not always comment.🙏
This is so cool, great video! Always love these kinds of videos
That's an amazing video you just made there sir, thank you alot !
This is amazing! I love what you do!
The intro seems to follow splendidly explosition rules of Saxton Hale
Always happy to see more Touhou lore videos.
Can’t wait for part 2!
I am wondering who made that opening with the voice acting because I have to admit it is a pretty cool opening for a video.🥰👍🏻😅🤔🧐
Thank you! I am the creator. I commissioned the background art and the voice acting, and the music was composed by a doujin circle. The writing, editing, and composition were done myself.
MegaFrog well then great job then man I am still wondering if the yorigami sisters were always goddesses or if they were originally human just like how I assume at this point in time that Suwako, Kanako, the Aki sisters and all of the other well known goddess in gensokyo.👍🏻😅🤔🧐
Wow the beginning was so amazingly organized! Great job!🩵🖤🧡💛
I love Chimata all my homies love Chimata
Oooh nice new video
That intro...I guess Shoutoku didn't give Saki enough carrots or something.
Fun fact:many of the gods you probably mentioned were directly created by shinki
Here's a theory I have that relates to this video(even if I made it before watching). Basically, I'd consider games starting at 16 to be in a whole new era, like with PC-98 and Windows. Of course, several characters from 6-15.5 are still around, but a lot of them are pushed to the sidelines like in 18's cards. Now, ZUN is changing the formula in each game with these huge gimmicks, and even things like character designs are drastically different.
Plus, a lot of fan-work only extends to 15.5 by themselves, like the Touhoumon series and Walfas.
Not to mention, older characters like Nitori are seemingly being replaced with newer characters like Takane, as you mentioned with the Kappa and Yamawaro. You could also argue Aya with Megumu. Again, like with PC-98 into Windows, this sort of repeats off of potential character replacements like Yumeko and Shinki with Sakuya and Remilia, or Meira with Yorihime. Of course, where you draw the line on "replacement" depends on opinion, but it feels like it's somewhat present to me.
As for what I said earlier about character designs, it seems as if ZUN's art style stopped drastically changing game-to-game at 12. Before that, there was more present shading, and less of that blotchy texturing for the clothes. The faces in the newer games(around 14 and onward) are really flat to me now, and the clothing designs are less... Fancy? It's a little hard to describe, but I can really feel it subconsciously. I'm not the type to say his style new-or-old is bad, really, but it's another thing I'd say I should mention.
Lastly, there's a lot more fighting games and other decimal-point sidegames. Like, almost every entry has a .5 to go with it.
TL;DR, It seems as if ZUN is making another soft reboot of sorts, starting at Touhou 16. I don't know what to call it, and it's not as drastic as PC-98, but he's really starting to focus on different things now than he was from 6-15.5 or so. It seems bittersweet, really.
I'm not surprised there's been a big tonal shift after 15. LoLK was about as heavy as Touhou has ever gotten thematically, so bringing in an antagonist like Okina who's super powerful but very funny and ultimately just messing with you is like a return to form. Aunn fits in perfectly with the Hakurei Shrine's increasingly large collection of wayward homeless youkai. Also I've seen plenty of art of Okina and her assistants, Keiki, and Chimata, all of whom feel like highly celebrated new additions to the cast.
So, all characters who were created before touhou 16 are going to rewritien, replicated or forgetten?
These videos are so comfy (｡･ω･｡)ﾉ♡
Epic :)
Hina the one who suffers the burdens of all humanity
if kutaka is all of that then where was she during pcb
I like Suaku's hat
I just want to quickly say that I am confused if joon and her sister were always sisters or if they used to be human or we’re always goddess’s.😅🤔🧐
they're native gods, they probably became sisters due to their history together. Of the gods that were covered in this vid, only Kanako was originally a human, i.e. a Divine Spirit.
Joshua B oh okay thanks for letting me know because I was just curious about that. P.s so only Kanako was originally a human before becoming a goddess/ divine spirit then if that is the case than what caused Kanako to become a goddess/ divine spirit and what year did she stop being a human species wise?!😅👍🏻🤔🧐
@@Touhou20246 While her profile doesn't actually say anything or confirm that she was one, the wiki page for Divine Spirits says that she fall under this category so in truth we don't know what happened if that is the case.
Joshua B oh okay thanks for letting me know I guess we might have to wait for zun to answer the question of how Kanako became a goddess/ divine spirit then.👍🏻🧐🤔
Think they're based on Lakshmi and her opposite
I wonder if the seco part is still in the works. Because i love this video and can't wait
The script outline is finished, but the full script is not yet written
@@MegaFrog Sick we are all excited. Love your stuff
touhou project
So I have a question what would happen if there was a human born in gensokyo who had the ability to nullify supernatural abilities and also had a powerful weapons that made them physically stronger than characters that specialize in strength can this hypothetical human now just beat the entire touhou cast? Because I'm pretty sure there is no touhou character that resist their powers being nullified.
Interesting question! However, even ignoring supernatural abilities, there are many characters in Gensokyo who are physically very strong, such as the oni, the vampires, and the beast youkai.
@@MegaFrog there are some characters that can make you physically and mentally weaker and nullify supernatural abilities and there are other characters that can resist their powers being nullified both supernatural and physical so I wonder if there are any touhou characters that have resistance to their powers being nullified and it's weird because there are so many touhou characters that have cool abilities so you would think there would be at least one that had power null or someone that resisted power null but I can't think of a single one which I find funny.
Not too much of an expert on lore stuff, but I imagine Reimu as well as the hourai immortals could resist? Not too sure about how Reimu's ability works tho.
@@izzymosley1970 Frankly, I feel like Scarlet Devil Mansion would likely be the stronghold in that situation. Remilia's supposed ability to manipulate fate combined with Flandre's Destruction of Anything and Everything and Sakuya's ability to manipulate time and space... As a team, they outright win most confrontations that aren't bound by the Spell Card Rules.
And, as MegaFrog said, there are many Touhou characters that could just strength diff most challengers (again, the Scarlet sisters, Yuuga, Suika, and Kasen come to mind in particular), ignoring the fact that this hypothetical character of yours is a complete Mary Sue if they can nullify innate abilities _and_ physical strength.
Then there's also Yukari and Okina, who... realistically speaking, you wouldn't live long enough to nullify their abilities given all the hax they have outside of the Spell Card Rules. Yukari, in particular, would likely just _smite_ any invader as such with intent to actually kill instead of just engaging in Spell Card battles. She may be fickle, but she does care deeply about Gensokyo.
@@NightFuryis11Official I think there's another way to beat this character even if the character can nullify special abilities and make their opponent just as strong as they are they could still be beaten by someone who was skilled enough at fighting even without using their special abilities.
Where would the Doom Slayer far if he walked through the Gensokyo lands.
Just one last question out of curiosity if I were to be turned into an haniwa idol would I have the ability to resist Keiki,s commands and orders?😅🧐🤔🤨
UltraToad
Oh and quick question wait the gods/goddesses in touhou project lore have the intelligence to understand the definition of politics?!😅😳🤔🤨🧐
Is it too much asking for Shinki for part 2
The script for part 2 is written and does not include Shinki. I have plans to include Shinki in another video alongside other similar gods. But nonetheless, she will be mentioned.
not sure what this is. Can someone explain?
I'm assuming you're asking the source of what this is about? The video is an explanation of bits of character backstory and worldbuilding from a vertical shmup video game series/multimedia franchise called the Touhou Project! This video in particular is framed as if it's being narrated in-universe. Lemme know if you were wondering something other than that :D
Well at least I won’t end up in the animal realm because I don’t abuse animals at all.😅👍🏻☺️😊🥰😂🤣
Part 2 when owO
I'm planning to start part 2 some time next year. The script outline for all four parts is finished, but I have yet to write the script in full.
@@MegaFrog I'M EXCITED LOVE UR CONTENT
I am confused if you are not going to do a part 2 then why did you title this video the pantheon of gensokyo part 1?😅🤔🤨🧐 p.s I am not try to offend you or make you mad I am just curious and confused.😅😑🤔🤨🧐
There will be a part 2 when I have the time to complete it. That time is uncertain at this moment.
@@MegaFrog okay thank you for letting me know I was just wondering and curious.👍🏻
