Close tie between first and second. Most of the PC-98 ones were just semi-randomly selected because I didn't know who they were. Also

I've been wondering for a while: is there a lost-in-translation reason for the awkward syntax in this exchange from PCB (a pun, a reference to Japanese media, a figure of speech that doesn't translate well into English, etc.), or is it just a literal translation?

Death, taxes, curvy lasers.

Also, I like how Narumi has one of the most OP abilities in Touhou (control of living things), but she's an ultimately insignificant* stage 4 boss.

*in the grand scheme of things. I still love her though

She does say that she would've been able to nullify Cirno, a being composed of pure life energy, so it seems to be more than just creation. Nevertheless, my original phrasing was wrong; sorry about that.

These guys also have some pretty good faux-Touhou tracks to use.

and the touhou wiki of course doesn't have a bio translation, or even a picture

still, cool that we got a new fakehu, always down for fakehus

you've got people pronouncing youkai both with the vowel shift (Marisa, the narrator) and the long o (Miko). Ditto Ootomo (Kanako) <--> Ootomo (Akyuu) and Gensokyo (Marisa) <--> Gensokyo (Byakuren)

yeah, Kanako's voice has a kind of vibe where while she's "off the clock" and letting herself relax and not project a larger-than-life god voice, her voice still has hints of the kind of weight and age that a god would have
