Touhou Characters as States of the United States

Some Touhou meme with characters personified as states or something.
Took an eternity to make.

If I can bring up something, Yukari would actually best represent Louisiana, for historical reasons. Yukari Yakumo, and by extension Mirabel Hearn, were inspired by author Lafcadio Hearn (better known in Japan as Koizumi Yakumo). After being expelled from Greece, he lived in Louisiana, contributing and perserving the unique culture of the time, before moving to Japan, changing his name, and collecting now iconic ghost stories. Like, the man lived one of the most fascinating lives I've ever read about in history.

[@primrose6794]

See, now THAT is something I would have loved to learn in Louisiana history!

[@masterseal0418]

As a Michigander, I can relate with Marisa.

[@nep-nep6575]

Funnily enough, my neighbor a couple years actually did have their front porch stolen.

[@yodaflyz]

I'm glad I live in a part of Michigan that's near the forest in the middle of nowhere so no one steals from me. My house is very messy & I just realized something about myself. I now have a sudden urge to loot... I mean borrow some books. 😆

[@X3n0ph4n35]

Can't have sh!t in Detroit 💀💀💀

[@DouglasStewart99]

"I wonder who my home state of Texas is gonna represented by?" *Saki Kurokoma* "Yeah. Yeah that makes perfect sense TBH."

[@mimathememer]

i was thinking the same thing lol

[@zacharyyoungblood7013]

I knew it was either going to be the cowgirl or the cow girl

Clownpiece is a true Pennsylvanian. She needs a hoagie and a wawa coffee.

[@LucreciaCrescentIsBestGirl]

I’m from Iowa, so I’ve got Okina’s backup dancers. Although Minoriko or even Kanako could work, considering that Iowa is very important for agriculture and farming. And those two are associated with agriculture and farming. Mai and Satono are cool, though. But I have been living in Nazrin state for a few months. #TheSunneversetsontheRatEmpire

[@internetlurker1850]

Ironically Yellowstone is likely to never explode now, despite being immensely powerful and exploding in the past. Likewise, Mokou is pretty damn chill now despite being an immensely powerful immortal that has commited atrocities in the past.

[@UltimaDoombotMK1]

Does that mean if she gets mad again for some reason, Yellowstone will start going back to "very likely to explode and kill us all"?

[@internetlurker1850]

@@UltimaDoombotMK1 Hopefully that never happens

[@Loner098]

And here I thought Utsuho "Okuu" Reiuji would fit Yellowstone.

[@UltimaDoombotMK1]

@@Loner098 Okuu controls nuclear fusion. She's literally the sun.

[@Loner098]

@@UltimaDoombotMK1 Then I guess Lavos from Chrono Trigger would be more fit for Yellowstone.

Speaking as a Georgian, Tenshi makes more sense than you may realize.

[@eletvizviz-redux]

the devil did indeed go down to georgia

[@okuufallout]

She must have Georgia on her mind

[@timsievers2067]

Is it the "fight me, loser" attitude?

[@yogsothoth915]

You know what. Even as a swing state, Ohio welcomes Hina. I look forward to seeing what she and Tewi do to the elections.. (can't be any worse, right?) Seriously though, this is a fun little thing, made me laugh a good bit actually.

[@ClappsuCatsu]

As a Kansan, I find the Yuuka part accurate.

[@GRBofficial-xq8ph]

I'm from New Hampshire, and I can say for sure that there are a bunch of mansions and mountains everywhere.

[@Workloadz]

Can confirm (I’ve lived in New Hampshire my whole life)

[@therossionfan]

Absolutely correct about RI, I am SO glad you didn't make a "heehoo RI small" joke with Shinmyoumaru. Good shit.

As a fellow South Carolinian I can confirm we are perfectly described by Futo for that reason 3:35

OG Cirno: Alaska. Latina Cirno: California.

[@Squifigly]

As some one who was literally just at MIT for tech related classes, I can relate with Nitori.

[@GardeBlaze]

As a person who lives in Texas, I should have seen Saki being my rep coming. I also find it hilarious that you gave Ohio the short end of the stick, even more than you did New Jersey. Which is fitting given how the country tends to treat Ohio.

[@mozzarellamaniac6300]

Bro has personal anger to Yukari 💀

Apparently Keine ate Akyuu's ability

Mistakes were made.

3:32 As a Hoosier, I can confirm this is true. Sekibanki do be ballin'.

[@SDoggo]

As a Montana/Wyoming person, yes, Yellowstone gets freaking hot and yes, there is cattle everywhere and people barely live here. EXCEPT when It's summer in Yellowstone then there's millions of people building hotels because tours

[@close2metvthebluesquare279]

3:50 I can confirm that Maryland has some good food. I’ve been to Ocean City and the food there is SOOOOOOOOO good!

Imaginé Touhou in latam countries 💀

[@newhaveni]

as an Oklahoman i find Aya to be very fitting for our state however one difference is that Oklahoma it's just ok Aya is much more then being ok

I always associated Mai and Satono with Oklahoma for some reason

[@newhaveni]

@@fahrenheit2530 how so

2:43 pretty accurate tbh

[@ultimapower6950]

0:59 well it’s official I’m moving to New Mexico 1:55 I thought Eika would be New Hampshire since you know she stacks stone which are presumably made of granite and New Hampshire state flag claims it as the Granite State which only seven Geologists care about. 2:35 Oh No the Netherlands are invading and they brought with them the most popular Pc-98 character in the general fandom and the one most people talk about when talking about pc-98 characters. Though in fairness I don’t know all that much more about pc-98 characters I think the one I know the most about is Sariel and that’s mostly due to a character in a fangame I love being a homage to her.

[@KawaiiFlandre495]

Well I guess the Keiki is my patron Touhou Character for my state.

[@Ayahuasca98]

This feels like the type of shitpost I’d see when I first got into Touhou back in 2013 (minus the newhus and modern memes) thanks for the memories

Honestly Kogasa could of been Maine for all the horror stuff associated with it

Now do one for the Canadian provinces!! Lol Definitely would be Murasa for me. (Guess the Province)

That Kanako description though ahem..... yeah she IS the goddess of mountains. Montana, yeah, there's a town, I mean village, with about 14 people living there, one of my friends is one of them.

Iowa is known for being empty so Ellen would be that states mascots (pc-98 character known for having an empty head)

Arkansas might as well be Koishi, for the same reason.

[@goku3460]

1:29 well … (looks around) you aren’t wrong

[@MetalX34]

there is more to say about both sanae and alabama, but i guess that's too low-hanging a fruit for the latter and is (fortunately) not canon for the former.

[@Alexs23743]

>>Reimu = Mississippi. This is gonna be good, I can already tell. 3:14: Good thing ZUN has had the forethought to not make a character based on some Italian stereotype, amirite? D: *O K I N A ' S B I T C H E S*
