This is the first revisional CRT out of three I currently have planned for the year. I'll be dividing these into parts for ease of evaluation. Manga scans are sourced from ᴍᴀɴɢᴀᴅᴇx. Now without further adieu;

Warning - The changes to Marisa's profile will precede the upcoming Ability Card Blog CRT. Cleaning her page up in preparation for it is the main purpose of this CRT. For now, please do not discuss Ability Card P&A's here, as we will be covering that in the upcoming CRT. Thank you!

Marisa Kirisame - Keying the Cardhax

Hi, it's me. The Marisa downgrader and HATER...

Anywho, the main idea would be to split Marisa into two keys: Pre-Unconnected Marketeers and Post-100th Black Market, and that Marisa's Ability Cards will be exclusive to this new key.

For all intents and purposes, the first key will cover everything ranging from PC-98 to Sunken Fossil World (AKA Touhou 17.5) in canon. Her new key will cover Unconnected Marketeers (AKA Touhou 18) and newer titles from there. I'll go ahead and clarify why this change is necessary;
  1. The primary reason for this split is that Ability Cards did not exist in canon before the events of Unconnected Marketeers. Market God Chimata Tenkyuu was necessary for them to exist at all, as she created them with the help of Megumu Iizunamaru. Chimata also did not exist in Gensokyo before the events of that game. As such, Marisa couldn't have acquired Ability Cards as Standard Equipment before Unconnected Marketeers.
  2. It was only until the events of 100th Black Market (Touhou 18.5) that Marisa managed to acquire each and every Ability Card. She made a deal with Takane to keep the markets open, so that she can collect every Ability Card in the game's ending. This is why she currently has Ability Cards as Standard Equipment on her profile, as was also accepted previously here.
The new key's AP justification comes from Marisa’s victory over Market God Chimata Tenkyuu in Unconnected Marketeers. While characters defeating final bosses isn't typically worth noting in the series, the canonicity of her victory is supported by the Narrator in 100th Black Market, who directly confirms that Marisa defeated Chimata in Unconnected Marketeers. As such, Marisa should have the following AP addition tied to her new key:
  1. Defeated the market god Chimata Tenkyuu [100th Black Market, Tutorial Stage]
Flandre Scarlet Updates

Flandre's been stowed away for the last 20 years of canon, so this was really neat to cover. First, her new AP Addition:
  1. Capable of fighting Reimu, Byakuren, and Shou at the same time [Foul Detective Satori, Chapter 30]
Now for some missed P&A stuff from Sunken Fossil World and EoSD:
  1. Blood Absorption (Able to absorb blood. In doing so, she can also release magic power that destroys everything) [Sunken Fossil World, Flandre's Scenario]
  2. Addition to Shapeshifting (Can shapeshift into a bat), [Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, Extra Scenario]
Byakuren Hijiri Updates

Some additional AP Justifications for her profile:
  1. Capable of tagging, throwing, and exchanging blows with Flandre [Foul Detective Satori, Chapter 30]
  2. Overpowered Mizuchi, who was easily able to defeat Mokou [Foul Detective Satori, Chapter 36], [Foul Detective Satori, Chapter 16]

Will those get actual justifications? Because rn they're just "X (With [Insert card])" and nothing else.
I have a blog that's nearly completed on that actually! That'll come after this CRT.

If you would like, I do not mind sharing it with you.
 
Can't really comment on the whole Marisa's stuff, but IG it does seems fine. The rest is also good to go.
 
Bump.

The second part to this CRT is practically finished and ready. Please consider voting if you haven't already!
 
Do non-staff votes even matter unless there is a disagreement? Anyway, I agree.
To my understanding, two staff votes are the minimum, necessary requirement to sign off on any changes.

It can turn into three votes needed if the scope of such revisions are controversial or are in need of further input to confidently sign off on changes. However, the changes related to this thread are fairly self-explanatory.

Also to any staff members who have questions, I will do my best to explain/clarify, should the need arise.
