Touhou 13.5: Hopeless Masquerade - Koishi Komeiji (New Commentary Version)

Imaginary Personality Holder
Koishi is... Koishi's just insane to play as. She's a character that's great at counterattacks and has amazingly powerful attacks. However when things go wrong with Koishi, they can go very wrong... and it is very easy to mess up with her ability.

Also note : after this game , Koishi is the only one who able to defeat the shine maiden in popularity poll of that years too. So she did get the popularity boost like from the lore.

[@ucnguyenmanh1479]

Does that mean Koishi can break the forth wall to get the popularity from us?

[@lunatic0verlord10]

@@ucnguyenmanh1479 Absolutely.

[@waterized_bottle]

Man she really likes to break the 4th wall huh?

[@explosivebaguettes9326]

I just realized that this was posted the day after my birthday! Koishi is my favorite character. Coincidence? I think not.

[@extremmefan7305]

I like how in one annotation you say it's Halloween but the reupload is on Valentine's, lmao.

[@bashily2844]

4:10 did the editor just refer to The Knee of JUSTICE as simply Falcon Knee?

[@DoctorNovakaine]

What the hell even is this character, that is the most janky-looking complicated thing I've ever seen in a fighting game. Also, say it with me: "God dammit, Koishi."

[@dileblade7659]

the squishy heart church of koishi.....and i thought the the cultists from the church of nep nep were bad....very worried now.

[@tekusquid918]

0:20 No, editor.... *YuyukoBytes*

[@lunatic0verlord10]

4:30 Oh right! Miko can do that, too. I tend to forget...

[@merefailninja953]

I just got back from a shower and this started playing when I came back O.o has koishi invaded my house or is this an omen.

[@ShockInazuma]

I know Utsuho is my favourite for being a nuclear birdbrain, but Koishi is a VERY close second. She's just so childish and playful and I love it. This also makes me realize, you have two Buddhists, two Taoists, a Shinto, a Magician, and finally Koishi for who you can initially play as. Oh right, and Nitori is there too, I guess.

[@approximatelyme3260]

At 7:58 or so, Suika's dance in the background is SO well-synched lmao

[@leafstorm331]

Was uploading Koishi’s video on Valentines Day intentional. (Not that Koishi can feel love or anything)

[@gratuitouslurking8610]

27:18 Ohai Vegeta, what you doing here.

[@lunatic0verlord10]

5:44 Now if only she could've used it on Koakuma before everything went to shit...

[@lunatic0verlord10]

1:54 Wait! She can send a mini-bomb-tank?

[@lunatic0verlord10]

2:32 -relax.

[@broccoliiandcheese4491]

Great, now the crazy green one is here... where are the Reimubytes when you need them?

[@anidiot4558]

oh dear imagine if she didn't catch her hat and it fell down. would a Chinese onlooker step on it?

[@lunatic0verlord10]

1:45 So far, everyone but Reimu and Marisa were played with their corresponding religions...

[@lunatic0verlord10]

1:46 You like her tentacle moves, yet you have no good memories of Koishi's Heart-Throbbing Adventure...

[@steveluvscows2490]

NO ONE has good memories of THAT.

[@tabafatristanjayechona9417]

Are these her actual spellcards from touhou or they're just in fighting game? I see Kokoro's spellcards in touhou mobile stage 5, Koishi's in stage 6

[@orionprism4339]

33:34 This is Koishi Komeiji

[@brantontucker6734]

Why must there be puns, whyyyy
