Silent Sinner in Blue - Track 2: Watatsuki's Spell Card ~ Lunatic Blue

Title: 綿月のスペルカード　～ Lunatic Blue
Artist: ZUN
Album: 東方儚月抄　～ Silent Sinner in Blue
I really love the Watatsuki's theme, it's just a shame there aren't many arrangements of it .-. There aren't many pictures of Toyohime either, as a matter of fact...

i was really hoping that the wakatsuki sisters would show up in LoLK, like how Kasen finally appeared in-game in ULiL. i was disappointed at first, but then when i found out LoLK's storyline, i understood why.

[@prizmastarz742]

+Astrid the Otaku Yep Junko and Clownpiece just purify the Lunar Capital and The Sea of Tranquillity and so they run away And the most disappointing is there is no Gengetsu nor Mugetsu since there is a dream world and yet i am relieved they're not appearing in this game since i don't want to get BAD OF A RAPE TIME by the Getsu Sister.(still LoLK is my all time favorite series next to LLS)

Y'know, I've only really thought about this now but, Watatsuki looks like Meira from back in Touhou 2. With the Katana, long violet hair with long bangs and in a ponytail. (Or whatever that long tied back style is called.)

You mean Yorihime? Watatsuki is the sisters' last name.

[@groudonsbest]

Ori Yes, got a bit mixed up due to the video picture focused on Yorihime while being called Watatsuki's theme. :p

[@Chipbeams]

groudonsbest Behind Eiki and probably Eirin, Yorihime is the third most powerful character in the entire Touhou Canon. Well, the third most powerful to actually appear. She's also the only one, to, well... flaunt it. She happens to bear some resembalence to one of the least known characters, as you said. I find that amusing. Her sister, Toyohime, comes in fourth, if you are curious.

[@CrypticNazo]

+Ori You're overlooking Reimu herself, ZUN has stated that if she used her full power without the limitations of the spellcard rules she'd be unbeatable. That's WHY the spellcard rules exist, so that anyone has a chance to beat the Hakurei miko in a fair fight. Seeing as Touhou 2, 4, and 5 have been referenced in Windows canon, Mima and Shinki could probably be considered as well, as Shinki is God Almighty for Makai, and Mima could beat her without using the full power she fought Reimu with in Story of Eastern Wonderland.

[@mousysaint9143]

+Ori you know that Yuyuko could easily destroy the entirety of the lunar society in less than a second using her ability? There's a lot of touhou characters who could defeat these sisters. And quite a few who could obliterate the lunar capital in less than a second. Hell they can't even deal with rampaging faries. Cirno is enough to deal with them.

Man I wonder how many people complaining about the Watatsuki's actually read Cage in Lunatic Runagate? Heck I wonder how many actually read all of Silent Sinner in Blue and aren't just complaining because it's the "cool" thing to do? I personally don't just think SSiB is a worthy addition to the series. It's one of my favorite touhou mangas in general! I just wish people would put more thought into their criticism and what ZUN was trying to achieve rather than just screaming SUE SUE IT'S A SUE without even bothering to check the source material...

[@GUMPAAful]

Nicky Sztybel Well she is not a Sue when she couldt beat Clownpiece or Junko and probably Sagume is more powerful than both of them, but the Wakatsuki did nothing wrong, they were teying to protect the moon from Yukari because she really make a whole plan to steal some sake and if you see Inaba of the Moon and Inaba of the earth uou see that The wakatsuki sister are kind of goofy , also the only thing i didnt read was Cage of Lunatic Runagate , of what is about?

[@Mr.Stizblee]

Definitely read Cage in lunatic runagate! It contains the actual ending to the story arc and reading both at the same time is how Silent Sinner in blue is meant to be read otherwise it's like you're skipping half the story. Also about your argument about Clownpiece keep in mind that Junko had turned the fairies into pure life force making them the thing the lunarians fear most as for Junko and Sagume as far as I know there isn't any evidence that they're stronger than the Watatsuki sisters in direct combat. Keep in mind that the Watatsukis are basically the leaders of the lunarian military whereas Sagume is as I recall just a political leader I'm not as Familiar with Legacy of the Lunatic Kingdom as I am with other storys so let me know if I'm wrong. Also most damningly ZUN said the Watatsukis are too strong to show up in a game so there's that. What I'm trying to say is that just the fact that a character is powerful does not make them a sue. Otherwise Yukari and Reimu would be sues! It's not about how powerful you are it's about the intent of the writer! A sue is a character who is powerful and loved in universe because the writer thinks it's cool and as a form of wish fulfillment. A character who is strong so the writer can demonstrate a point like the Watatsuki sisters Is most certainly not a sue! Anyway sorry for the long post I really like ZUN's writing and it really frustrate's me to see it so underappreciated.

[@GUMPAAful]

Nicky Sztybel You are right about Clownpiece and also Sagume is in a superior posision that The Wakatsuki sister beigb the goddess of the moon anf having a fearful ability in her mouth , she didnt receive damage from any character in touhou 15 and thr only readon she couldnt fighr Junko was because of Clownpiece , Junko is strong enough , hwr ability let her even create gods at one point , and also she is allie with hecatia Lapizlazuli, the strobgest touhou character , Junko, Hecatia and Clownpiece are the strongest trio you gonna find , also have you read Inaba of thr Moon and Inaba of the Earth ? You can see the sister personalities so good

[@Mr.Stizblee]

Inaba of the Moon and Inaba of the Earth as much as I like it technically isn't written by ZUN so it's kinda ambiguously canon though he certainly approved it as such I didn't really bring it up that much. Anyway thanks for correcting me on Junko and sagume I don't know as much about them tbh

Probably the latter, Kaguya, Erin and Reisen, while Lunarians, they prefer the Earth now, and I'm sure Reimu doesn't hate them, they were just inconveniences for Gensyoko when they made the incident in IN, pretty sure they are in good terms now, especially with Reisen (btw, Tewi and the rabbits aren't Lunarians)

[@ColorlessQuarky]

I'm quite confident Yahweh is not omnipotent in touhou, Hecatia has already been described by Zun as the strongest character from touhou. In truth, all gods originate from humanity's worship and devotion; they are a manifestation of people's beliefs through the personification of nature's elements. As such, divinity is not transcendental to nature but rather a part of it. Thus, abrahamic religions are inherently at odds with the belief systems touhou is based off, so the abrahamic god would likely be an extensively watered down version from the biblical records.

[@friendlyneighborhoodshinigami]

And on top of that, having to fight both Hecatia and Junko at the same time during Heca's non-spells. Of course, the only reason why Reimu and her friends stood a chance against Junko and Heca is that Eirin helped them by making the Ultramarine Orb Elixir which allowed the protags to stand a chance again the Lunarians, and the Watatsuki sisters are both Lunarians.. so why didn't Eirin just help them again? It's not like Eirin doesn't know about them and their abilities, since Yorihime is her self-proclaimed successor(SSiB confirms this). I guess this can be explained that she didn't have the right materials since SSiB happened in 2007-2008 and LoLK happened in 2015. But if not, then what's the reason? Did she just not give a shit? Is she terrified of them? Does she get outclassed by them? ..Either way, I really hope the Watatsuki sisters don't get thrown into the bin of Touhou characters who appear once majorly and never return whatsoever. There's absolutely no reason for such badass and strong characters to just.. not get another major appearance at all.

ZUN already stated that Hecatia was just playing around. She didn't have any intentions of beating the Lunarians or the protagonists. Hecatia's real plan was to sneak Clownpiece into Gensokyo so she could have a better life far away from the cruel hell. Eirin doesn't know anything about Hecatia, she was just aware of Junko. Heck, not even Eiki knows much about Hecatia, and this one is her boss. Eirin did help the Watatsukis when the SDM and Reimu went to the moon.

+Dawn [insert last name here] I'm fairly certain that Yorihime and Toyohime are the Lunar equivalents of Reimu and Yukari in terms of abilities and responsibilities, respectively, except the Watatsuki sisters are exceptionally hardworking and no-nonsense compared to Reimu and Yukari. This comes from the fact that the sisters failed the Lunarian civilization multiple times before, and are trying to fill in a power gap left by Eirin when she betrayed the moon (one of their failures was letting her get away with it, because how could they fight their old mentor?), something they can never really accomplish but continue to work their butts on in order to redeem themselves in the eyes of Lunar society. They're a really misunderstood pair, both by the Lunarians and the Earth (and by extension, the fandom), which kind of justifies their power, as people who can't fit in anywhere have to be strong to survive (and let's not forget, they're Lunarians, making them essentially superhuman to begin with).

Diego M Fair enough, but still. They are ridiculously overpowered, even by Lunarian standards.

[@moonwalker-t3u]

Insert Generically Ironic Name Here They are not. Junko can create Gods, Kaguya plays with the concept of eternity. Eiren is a super genius who can do Mutiple things like create a fake moon, using her strong magic. Sagume can curse and direct the way reality flows. We really shouldn’t be saying that they are overpowered in Lunarian terms, when others are just as strong as them.

@@moonwalker-t3u I'm pretty sure the sisters are vastly superior to Sagume, Kaguya, the only ones able to stick around with them are Eirin and Junko.

[@lifegen1927]

@@chauthai3481 They are probably superior, but i dont think they are more powerful than sagume, like probably toyohime because of her good luck and border manipulation, but like yorihime eh

@@robotron6420 a fan is stronger than someone who can summon gods💀💀yeah makes sense

​@@friendlyneighborhoodshinigamii mean gods in touhou are not too strong since it has happened multiple times gods begin beat, while toyohime's fan is capable of wiping an entire city so i pretty much doubt yorihime can beat toyohime

Ah yes, the Theme of The Two moon princesses, only to be beaten by a Pure Spirit, the Hell fairy, and a Goddess of Hell actually though, Pure is not good for the moon as this will result in eternal impurity and at the same time, hostile terraforming the Moon to be habitable is one bad thing junko will do once she gets her revenge on chang'e

She isn't even that bad of a character people. SSiB just plain sucks.

[@tbana2396]

Even after reading the extended ending in CiLR, the whole ordeal still didn't feel worth it to me. I really like Yorihime, but she often feels like an OC created solely to demonstrate how she's apparently better than the canon cast. I wanted to see more of her, but she doesn't get much characterization beyond that and being a pupil of Eirin. Basically, a good concept mixed with bad writing decisions. Sounds a lot like Scrappy Doo, except here we've gone down so many layers of exaggerated hatred for the Watatsukis that there is exaggerated hatred for people who don't like them.

[@jouheikisaragi6075]

@@tbana2396 you know it's sad when the most compelling Yorihime has been is in a Shotacon doujin(as it retells her fucked up relationship with Toyohime's son)

[@HonestFarmerLigue1Fan]

@@jouheikisaragi6075 I hate Toyohime's holier than thou attitude in canon, but I friggin like her portrayal in KKHTA. Well to be precise, I love to hate her, she is awesomely vile, twisted, and rotten (despite being from a pure land known as The Moon). I like that she is portrayed as a "retired soldier then became politician" who abuses her authority, manipulated Satori (her fellow race, by the way) and fed lies to human. Exactly that is what always happen in real life.

[@jouheikisaragi6075]

@@HonestFarmerLigue1Fan Toyohime's weird since her myth and backstory makes her prime for being an eventual Moon Deserter as well. Yet nothing's done with her. That's the main sin of the Watatsuki Sisters. They're not properly taken advantage of so they just end up as giant jobbers(despite how much ass they kick, they exist to make Yukari look smart) with very little to them. I have cut off Touhou from my life because this sorta shit is a bit too common, and sadly, the series fell into a loop of only the popular characters show up in the extended media and since they show up more, they remain more popular. So some folks like the Watsukis, Medicine, Shou, Tojiko and almost everyone from 16 not named Okina end up in a rut of being niche at best and forgotten at worst(Medicine is probably the single least recurring character in the games)
