I have somehow avoided learning about how the plot plays out. All I knew before hand is that Sumireko shows up in Gensokyo with the Occult Balls and causes problems and well...that's not necessarily how the story goes.

Feels good to have context for a lot of stuff now. ESPECIALLY fanon stuff. I legit had no idea why Sumireko and Mokou were paired up so much and it's just cause they bonded a bit during the whole fiasco.

I also never knew just how many characters end up in the outside world during the incident. A LOT of characters do. It's kinda crazy how much happened. This incident was easily one of the most dangerous ones to happen to Gensokyo. Thanks Lunar Capital! (You'd think Yukari would be all over this incident. Was she sleep? lmao)

I didn't talk much about my thoughts on Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom after beating that too so I'll talk about it a bit here. Unlike ULiL, I actually knew basically everything that happened in LoLK. I was mostly just unaware of most of the spellcard patterns. I never want to fight Clownpiece ever again lmao.

I do wonder though, is the idea that Junko's spellcards break the rules misinfo? Forgot where I heard this, but apparently Junko's spellcards were built to actually kill instead of being non-fatal.

She does say some pretty intimidating stuff, but Junko is far from the only character to threaten killing their opponent. Mokou does it a bunch, pretty sure several bosses do it, heck Reimu does it too right? At the end of the day though, danmaku is for play. Junko seemed more than happy to play along with the playable cast. Yeah, her danmaku isn't very "pretty" and often aims at you directly, but if she was actually trying to kill you'd think the game would reflect that a bit better. Her anger has nothing to do with the player anyway. She's very casual with everyone she interacts with even if she's a little crazy and intimidating about it.

I'm kinda rambling lol. More importantly, fanon Junko has super different vibes to canon Junko. They're both intimidating sure, but canon Junko is just really melodramatic about everything she does. Fanon Junko is more obsessive than anything else.
