Anyways if people want my opinion on how many Touhou matchups we could or should get:
I mean, it’s a massive franchise with over a hundred named characters and decades of content, there’s plenty of characters with a good amount of material to pull matchups from, and with Touhou’s relative obscurity in the Vs community in the west, the only characters we’re really going to see get requested are the main characters. I think Touhou could be used as much as they want by pairing it against larger franchises because there’s such a large volume of content to pull from. It deserves the reps for sure.
it’ll really just depend on how well the episodes perform on if Touhou will end up getting a lot of MUs/eps I feel. It’s not like the verse is low on MUs or anything.
Kasen vs Fleetway
Marisa vs Yuffie
Sakuya vs Hit/Whoever
Reimu vs Sailor Mars/Arle/Whoever
Cirno vs Jack
Remilia vs Rachel
Flandre vs Marx
Yukari vs Altair
I generally think these are probably the most important MUs for the verse to pull. It covers a lot of different characters from other franchises & touches on a lot of different avenues of Touhou scaling. There’s plenty of other decent or viable MUs like Ran vs Archie Tails or whatever too.
seems fair i'll try to see which ones have strong chances
I feel this one has a strong shot these days
sure i may be wrong but ya blog on it prob helped get more on board with it and getting some traction
Fleetway maybe not that well known but the crew is aware fo him and its still sonic at the end of the day
Kasen does have Competiton from Z-Broly and Onslaught due to brand recognition and the former popularity but we don't need another round of DB vs Sonic on the show and Onslaught is a who to most unless ur a 90s baby
it does hurt that Kasen isn't that familar to most in the west but i could see her having a shot
idk much on both alts so i guess its possible but i don't think Yuffie is someone they have any real hard interest from FF7 to get on in comparison to someone like Vincent or non FF7 reps
Sakuya is one of the more well known Touhou characters that constantly gets thrown in vs animations and one that pretty easy to toss as the first rep in the series issue is her Best MU's suffers in having better or being obscure
Hit is a popular DB super era character and Ultraguy did confirmed he does see Hit's name thrown around meaning he not lacking in requests popularity
and folks in the DB Server seemed to be fine with the MU even if its lacking in Connections.
Reimu vs Sailor Mars/Arle/Whoever
Reimu is another big name touhou star and i would say someone like Yusuke would been a lock if folks didn't fell off from it and viewed as a massive stomp(which it is)
Mars and Arle would be fine pick tho the latter is lacking in big ass clout(could be wrong)
theres madoka but she has Moon
Cirno vs Jack
Remilia vs Rachel
Cirno vs Jack is there anhd have MEME popularity tho idk how well that would help and feels like if you want to do this MU you need bring in the big names first to help make things easy
Remillai vs Rachel feels like that should've been done if the team didn't have an adverse reaction to Blazeblue and the game relevance these days being damn near dead
Flandre vs Marx
Yukari vs Altair
idk if Marx has better but this one should be fine to do and Flandre is also another Touhou big name
Yukari is another Touhou bug name thou idk if Altair is that relevant outside vs clout
