Since Touhou Fanbase has created groups for Touhou Characters.
I found some groups like:
- Old-Maid Alliance (Yukari,Kanako,Yuyuko,Eirin and *Insert tall 2HUs here*)
- Three EX Stages girls (Flandre,Koishi,Nue but not other EX bosses)
- Crazy Quartet (aka. Seija and Three EX Stage girls)
- Team ⑨/ Baka ⑨ if some call them (Groups of weak Youkais like Rumia,Cirno,Wriggle,Daiyousei,Mystia)

I'm just curious about these groups. Please tell me why they were formed in these ways.
(Three Mischievious Fairies not included, this group is canon)

Touhou, to who?

Old-Maid Alliance

In this group there are Kanako, Yukari, Eirin, Yuyuko, Byakuren and sometime Yuuka
because there looks like women between 25-30 and in here name there are "Ya" who means 8 and
this number was sacred in ancient times in Japan, this 8 may mean sacred or infinite

Three EX Stages Girls

In this group there are Flandre, Koishi and Nue
Flandre was a source of inspiration for some EX bosses
Flandre is the little sister of Remilia and more powerful
Koishi is the little sister of Satori and also more powerful and the theme of Nue is very similar to the theme of Flandre

Team ⑨/ Baka ⑨

In this group there are Cirno (obviously), Rumia, Daiyousei, Wriggle and Mystia (sometime other fairies like Clownpiece, Three Mischievious Fairies and maybe Lily)
because they look young, there weak, dumb and not really
important

Team ⑨ is like the opposite of Old-Maid Alliance

and for Crazy Quartet idk sry

I think the reason of putting Seija in Crazy Quartet would be:

1.She looks similar to Nue
2.She has a "Reversible" theme just like Koishi
3.She is a "Chaotic" type of character, like the 3 EX Stage girls
4.I don't know how to explain this properly but
- Flandre has been locked for 400+ by her sister.
- Koishi closed her 3rd eye to get rid of the pain her sister recieved, yet she became almost non-existed.
- Nue has been defeated and sealed so many times.
- Seija was hated by almost everyone.

Maybe, these would be the reason why.
I know, this group isn't that popular with Seija.
