    東方ｘたてセタ50日目までまとめ

    ツイッターから始まってニコニコ静画に最近日課で上げている東方ｘたてセタシリーズのまとめです。アニメGIFの早苗さんだけ除外してますが、ほかは差分、リテイク混みです。現在もなんとなく継続中。ちょっと仕事が忙しくてちゃんと時間をかけた趣味絵が描けないんでこんな事してます。多分今後も多忙続くので貞子たんは長い目でひとつ…ｗ

    You are aware that about 85-90% of the stuff people accept as 'canon' stuff about Touhou is actually fanon stuff that either got really popular or ZUN just went with it, right?

    Canon: Things that are proven true due to the manga or games of a series showing the person doing said thing.

    Fanon: Stuff that fans think are true due to twisting certain things in the series' materials way out of proportion.

    For example:

    Canon is Tenshi being bored and causing an incident to get attention.
    Fanon is Tenshi being a masochist who loves being beaten up all because of one line she said to Youmu.

    In canon, Kaguya and Mokou hate each other quite profusely, so I'd say that Equinox's reaction to capnkyo is pretty justified. Besides, where the hell does Kaguya even play into this picture? She isn't there!

    Get your petty bullshit out of perfectly good pictures.
    No one's -forcing- you to enjoy the thought of Kaguya's reaction to sweater Mokou.

    Technically, you are by letting people know what you think, and reacting negatively to his post.

    Oh look, people downvoting a comment because it's too long and right, what a refreshing occurrence...
    Not.

    Only thing wrong about it The fact that canonically kaguya really doesn't hate mokou, she just hates being beaten / mocked. While mokou is sheer hate, Kaguyas situation is described by eirin as to "not entirely hate it", meaning it's somewhat entertaining to her. Gotta think, mokou hates kaguya for what happened in the past, kaguya just accepts the rivalry and goes with it.

    It's hard to even call what Mokou has mere hate as it's a massive obsession to her and in the CoLA bit where the SSiB stuff came up, Mokou was seriously freaked out by the thought of not being able to fight her anymore.

    If anything Kaguya goes along with this out of kindness.

    But let's get back on topic, Sweater Mokou is hot Mokou.

    Ok, so maybe I should've let it slide. I apologize.
    I agree with Jake's definition of canon, which is why I like "Inaba of the Moon and Inaba of the Earth's" portrayal of Mokou and Kaguya's relationship. Mostly 'cause it's one of the most lighthearted I've seen.

    They're rivals in the current gensokyo age (Inaba stories + CoLA), so there's no avoiding a bit of love/respect between the two. So there's actually not much of a need for that much of a push towards the fanon's 'MokouxKaguya' pairing.

    Also, considering Kaguya's powers are 'Power of Eternity' and 'Power over Instantaneous', I'd say that should be proof enough that Kaguya doesn't hate Mokou. Those powers are about as broken sounding as Yuyuko's 'Instant Death' power.
