In this thread you gush about anything you like in the old Touhou games. Let's raise awareness of them!
Mima. The vengeful spirit with a grudge against humanity, who tutored Marisa in the ways of magic. A significant character across the entire PC-98 series, who was unceremoniously erased from existence come the Windows era.
We miss you, Mima-sama.
Shinki created the world of Makai in her own image. Normally you'd expect the creator of a world of demons to be some kind of supreme evil entity, but that's not the case. She's in possession of one of the best PC-98 themes.
(this next image is very big, so it has been spoilered)
Shinki is Alice's mother. The puppeteer youkai was raised tenderly by the Makai goddess. Yeah, Shinki certainly isn't as tough as she appears at a first glance.
Shinki taught Byakuren some things while the head buddhist was sealed in Makai. Isn't it ironic that Youkai Jesus survived in a world of demons and probably is in good terms with its creator?
Mima and Shinki helped us get what we see today in Gensokyo. They will both be missed.
Meira x Reimu is my favorite pairing lost to the end of the PC-98's days. It's one-sided, but it's cute to see that Reimu actually loved someone in canon, even if she was dim enough to mistake Meira's challenge for power for a marriage proposal.
Other than that Meira makes ends meet with simple things. In a setting where themed and/or complex danmaku is the norm, she basically has her sword, some basic bullets and can still cause a fair amount of trouble the first few times she's fought because she's very mobile, more than most Windows bosses.
Now gush on, people.
