Very cute. I wouldn't mind a grown up Remilia.

This seems more like Remilia x Sakuya than Meiling x Sakuya though.

sorry im too used to tagging Karaagetarou with Meiling x Sakuya

You got me all excited over nothing ;_;

Ah, and here I thought Sakuya was going to use her power to fast forward Remilia to adulthood. Damn.

I really never was a fan of Karaagetarou, I'll admit. The art style is kind of ridiculous, and it's not particularly funny or cute, either...

Is that just me, then?

Maybe. I adore everything about Karaage. I'd put them in my top 10 Touhou artists..

Karaage is one of my favorite artists too. Their art is just so expressive and colorful and cute! Each to their own, I guess.

awesome as always. some patchy magic added in would have been great too though lol

I'm not all that taken with it mostly, but it's okay.

HOWEVER, it's used to great effect here, and quite good here as well.

Oh yeah, I had forgotten about those two. Yeah, I think they work because they read and look like the old classic childrens books, only for Touhou. It's a very unique style, and and the minimilist plot and text play to it's strengths, but I think that when applied to the usual fare it comes off as kind of lazy, given the general quality we expect from established circles. (Then again, it's also in color, so there's that?)

Eh, I'll just chalk it up to 'weird tastes are weird' and shrug nonchalantly.

I definitely would not call it lazy or poor quality. It's neither of those things. There's a lot that goes into that art, even if it's not my favourite style personally. I have to respect that. Plus, the writing is very good even if people freak the fuck out a bit more often than I usually prefer.

I just realized that on the 5th page, Remillia is looking into a mirror. Shouldn't that technically be impossible for a vampire?

Every media seems to portray vampires slightly differently, depending on which rules they decide to include. I don't think canon Touhou has firmly established which ones it goes by, except for the Sun and Running Water weakness as well as hinting that Beans affect vampires similarly to Oni.

Honestly thought they were going to skip all the dressing up part for a more comedic style reaction towards Remilia's look. Glad they followed up with the dressing up process between Remilia and Sakuya, that was wholesome as heck!

I know this is a bit late but I would also agree that the way the artist draws these works is much like how children's books are like. They are colorful and use more round shapes instead of the traditional sharp edges in many other Touhou works. This, I’d say, is to show a more friendly and peaceful perspective of the characters, making it seem like a fairy tale where the side of serenity is being presented.

At the same the way that the artist makes the scenery much less detailed than the characters is to put emphasis is to be on them instead of the environment. You are brought into the mind of each character which can show more about how they see the world around them as compared to what it actually is. Coupled with the tone being rather tranquil, it makes for a story that is rather soothing.

Of course enjoying these kinds of stories does require the reader to be in a certain kind of headspace, as most stories would need, in this case it is to be calm and composed. Having adrenaline and hype would definitely make the story seem slow and boring. Nonetheless it is a great read for whenever you feel tired or relaxed.

This is also a good one by the author: https://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/im_worried_about_her

ohhh my god this is such a good dynamic... idk what else to say except Touhou is full of characters where you can really make wonderful things happen between them and Karaagetarou is amazing at doing that
