Nice, one of my favorite Touhou stories got a sequel~

@KitchenReno You realize that neither of these two characters actually get boyfriends in the anime, right?

Even now, this is still missing a few relationships - namely the Kotatsu Yuri couple, the karaoke employee and Sakisaka are a couple in http://danbooru.donmai.us/pools/12359, and the student-teacher couple in http://danbooru.donmai.us/pools/12642. Given that the latter two haven't been scanlated and Kotatsu Yuri was only uploaded a few days ago though, its understandable. Still, this chart is great to see.

Er, that's a lot of questions. I haven't played yet, there isn't an english patch yet (for what it's worth, I haven't gotten the patches for the previous two games to work), I've never been any sort of good at Touhou so I'm not the one to ask, Aya and Cirno have both been playable in a few games including the fighting games. Actually, Cirno being strong enough to be playable main character in a standard game is a plot point.

Regarding Okina Matara, her Touhou wiki page indicates she is actually a Youkai Sage and it's implied that she knows Yukari. Their powers are fairly similar too.

@elevown That's from Marisa's art in the new game, Hidden Star in Four Seasons. As you can probably tell from the title, it has to do with the seasons - basically the seasons are messed up and Marisa's house ended up covered in snow during the middle of summer. The same goes for the other playable characters, with Reimu being spring, Aya being fall, and Cirno being summer.

As for the characters, it's a bit early to tell. However, people seem to like Narumi (her official art is quite cute, especially for Zun) and the third stage boss, Komano Aun, for being so damn nice. Also the final boss, Matara Okina, for her involvement with the creation of Gensokyo.

This got even cuter. I can't handle this!

I like the idea that Diana is blushing on panel 4 just because of how cutely Akko was smiling and speaking. Not to mention her little imagine spot at the end of how she thought her confession would turn out.

I fucking ship it.

In case anyone doesn't get it, that girl is Narumi Yatadera, the stage 4 boss of the new Touhou game. She and Marisa know each other from before the game's events and are on friendly terms, with Marisa calling her "Naruko".

I've always loved this set-up; i.e. the student-teacher relationship where the teacher is shy and the student is flirty.

Rowlet's face just kills me.

Neat, a sequel to https://dynasty-scans.com/images/6862. Both of their reactions are quite cute.

I have to wonder who Akko kissed on the cheek, though.

While a bit predictable, I'm glad that they made up so quickly and the tension wasn't drawn out more.

Yeah, the game is pretty much GunColle. Pretty fun regardless.

Also, the person who drew this apparent does official art for Girls Frontline, so maybe this ship is halfway canon!? Probably not though, I'm not sure that these two even have lines together (most of them aren't translated). Still, this comic is adorable.

Both of them were in the original games, though they looked very different. Cute pairing, though I'm not sure they ever actually interacted in the games.

In case anyone is curious about the next part, it's been translated on Danbooru: http://danbooru.donmai.us/pools/12674.
It's mostly flashbacks, though.

I have to agree with Nez, this is next-level weirdness. I'd suggest the What the fuck am I reading? tag, but I think it's a bit early for that. Has anyone seen the scans for the next few chapters?

Is this what you would call "indirect hugging"?

Poor Fate, being used as propaganda/eye candy.

That's one of the more awkward Kabedon's I've seen in my time. Also, does anyone know what that small text says at the bottom?

I'm going to take the unpopular opinion here and say that I honestly don't mind whoever the main character ends up with, as long as it's written well and cute.

Still, the ending of the last chapter was pretty harsh, though I'm hoping they'll still be able to be friends again.

Looking at the source's date, it seems that Nakatani Nao was awesome with Yuri even 8 years ago.

Knowing the artist, I wouldn't be surprised if that was meant to be blood. Still, this is a cute pic for a cute pairing.

I just love this manga so much. I can't really analyze it nearly as well as Gudetamago, though. It's just the way Nakatani Nao makes me feel tense - like even throughout the fluffiness of most of this chapter, I'm just waiting for the other shoe to drop. And I'm really conflicted too, like I understand what the story's saying about how the way they are now can't last but another part of me just loves how sweet they are together, even if their relationship is a bit screwed up.

Also I can confirm, flapjack octopus are very cute.

Hmm, I don't like this development very much. That may be because I was expecting more fluff, but still. Not to mention how rape-y that last part was.

Huh, it's been 2 years. Nice job fluttering Himawari like that.

Chapter 8 was filled with lewd handholding, that's great.

Also despite the secondhand embarsssment, I've been enjoying this by a surprising amount. When the ex-delinquent decided to start crossdressing as well that just killed me.
