the way she was introduced is *chef's kiss.* imagine you're reimu, and you've been transiently hounded by some weird fucking nerd for weeks, so you get everyone in on it to scare her straight, get her out of the way so she stops fucking around with the Barrier. and instead she tries to kill herself and bomb your house. thanks girl

i like her role as a foil to the fantastical of gensokyo! someone who can look in from outside and find joy in the novelty of it, especially after 14 games of the world slowly growing bigger. it's nice to have a hakurei shrine.

the fit is gorgeous. bowler hat. thick ass glasses. cape with random futhark sewn into it. and, presumably on her all the time, a whole damn gun

it's really, really funny how mad she made people back in the day. i mean. they spent a decade and change writing fanworks about getting to enter gensokyo and living a phantasmagorical adventure. and then it was canon, and the self insert in question was god's most imageboard-fried teenage girl. i mean the crashout was legendary
