Marisa did say that she interested in immortality and stuff. However, becoming youkai is a sin in Gensokyo, so there a chance that those two will fight to the death if Marisa does so.

This sounds like an awesome idea for a climax if or when ZUN decides to finish the series. There's a lot of interesting stuff with Marisa in particular that I think he could explore considering that the recent manga like FS and WaHH focus more on Reimu.

Great doujin with a somber atmosphere. I really love this team's works! Does this need the MarisaxReimu tag though? Cover indicates it's a ReiMari doujin but it's more subtextual.

Is there also some sort of plot trend with ReiMari artists lately regarding Marisa choosing to become a youkai magician and outliving Reimu? Beni/poprication and Yonurime had made comics with a similar concept before. Or is there some revelation in canon that hints Marisa is inclined to become a youkai? Last I've heard she still doesn't wanna give up her humanity...

MariAliPatchy content is always top-tier, they're seriously the best trio in Touhou hands down.

I also love the setup with Meiling, poor gatekeeper couldn't catch a break....

Poprication delivering quality goods as always, mixing in that classic style with tidbits from canon. Marisa does worry about Reimu a lot, now that I think about it- as her childhood friend, one would imagine that she knows perfectly how strong Reimu is, but there's also probably a ton of times she's seen Reimu fly off to fight some unimaginable deity without knowing how it'll turn out. Underneath the impulsive façade, she cares a lot more than she lets on, just as Reimu's more detached than she seems underneath her initial fussiness. The best part of the ship is how deeply emotional these cool incident-solvers get when it comes to each other- Reimu wandering around morosely after Marisa disappears in CDS was pretty cute in a depressing kind of way (her ribbon actually starts to obey the laws of physics and droop), and I can't wait for them to be reunited.

May I ask what CDS is, please?

I actually looked it up after reading that comment too lol, they're referring to Cheating Detective Satori (a fairly recent official manga). Said scene happens in chapter 7.

Yay. More of the worst ship in Love Live! I seriously don't get the popularity of this pairing. All I get from this is Chika is a piece of shit who turned her back on the one who loves her the most.

Yay. More unnecessary opinions no one asked for.

It’s literally not that hard to just.... ignore a doujin of a pairing you hate.
