Old enough to have breasts, not old enough to have armpit hair.

25 in SA

>>1205346
Protip: Women can shave their armpits.

20

>>1205339
In her 20's by SA

>>1205347
25?

That's ancient.

She was created in 1995

>>1205361
But the PC98 games aren't canon so yeah!

>>1205347

They finally given her a age? I thought she was eternally around high school age. Also, how long has it been since EoSD? Two, three years?

>>1205372how long has it been since EoSD? Two, three years

7 years

But Reimu's an undead zombie so yeah!

She's getting really old now

THE DEAD ARE AGELESS

>>1205372
>eternally
She is the Eternal Shrine Maiden
>>1205371
>ZUN made her before that
>Also, how long has it been since EoSD? Two, three years?
EoSd 2003
now 2008
5 years

>>1205376
>>1205380

Reimu is the perfect blend of not too big but not too flat. Unfortunately Touhou fans seem to veer more for one extreme or the other.

>>1205385
you just posted without bumping

By ZUN there is a one to two year gap in between every game.

Four, if you go with the HoY timeline.

>>1205381

I'm talking in game. I'm assuming time flow in the games isn't made to match the time flow in the real world. The Scarlet Mist incident doesn't seem to be that old.

It's said that she is around 16. So now she is 18. <3 maiwaifu.

>>1205411
There are dates in Bohemian Archive.

>>1205392
Now in days most fans make Reimu look her age (early 20's).

She's approaching unmarriageable age, better pair her off with an eligible man soon.

So her choices are Rinnosuke, a random faceless rapist or Marisa dressed as a man.....

>>1205424
>>a random faceless rapist

Faceless H-man end ftw.

Old Reimu is old

>>1205411
see>>1205401

5 to 7 years

>>1205411

I'm not quite sure how they worked out this timeline, but according to

http://touhou.wikia.com/wiki/Gensokyo

EoSD takes place over 5 years before SA.

>>1205360
Did anyone say ancient? Because I think I heard someone say ancient.

>>1205430
They got it from the japanese Touhou wiki

>>1205411
Well if we put in a way
EoSD was during summer (Marisa mentioned it in stage 2)
PCB was during a prolongued winter
IaMP could be during autumn same for IN (I think harvest moon festival is during Autumn)
POFV is during spring
MoF is during Autumn
SWR is one year after MOF
SA is during winter

It'd be nice if Zun made an apprentice for her in the next game.

>SWR is one year after MOF
>SA is during winter
I think that these two are wrong.

>>1205445
SA does happen in winter.

>>1205445
http://touhou.wikia.com/wiki/SWR first paragraph
and in SA Marisa was wearing winter clothes I based myself on that

>>1205445
Nuclear winter, duh.

>>1205424
There is Youki.

>>1205449
>>1205457
Ok.
Also, why the hell was Marisa wearing blue ?

>>1205465
He's far too old for her, and a ghost.

Half age plus seven is the limit for how young a wife you can take, and Reimu isn't 157.

>>1205441
Let her be called 腋下子.

>>1205469
Winter Clothes

Reimu should just find some nice guy from the human village and start going out with him.

...
If Reimu is in her 20's how old is Marisa then?

>>1205512
~1 year younger, maybe

>>1205484
Sweet little armpit, eh?

I'd hit that.

Sakuya is in her 30's.

Come to think of it, I wonder how old Rinnosuke is.

They are eternal lolis.

>>1205477

Where is Youki's age stated? I thought it was unkown.

>>1205547
There are hints that she may be a Lunarian. So she might be like 1,000 years old or some shit.

>>1205441
Sanae

>>1205557
Nop

>>1205567
Lunarians are humans from the moon Kaguya drank the elixir, Eirin and her apprentices use science to live longer

>>1205580
Lunarians aren't the same as humans. They live for a lot longer naturally.

>>1205550
Since he did see the last big barrier go up 500+ as the minimum.

I wish that these youthful and carefree days will continue on forever.

;_;

>>1205595
Alice will revive them.I bet that book has some ressurrection spell

>>1205592

Wait, how certain are we of the date the barrier went up?

And how does it fit in with the PC-98 timeline?

>>1205611
Like for her mother?

>>1205592
Old Man Pits are old!

>>1205614
She cannot ressurrect what hasn't died yet

>>1205584
>>1205580
Read more CiLR, faggots.

What was that Doujin where Reimu's going to die and Marisa tries to save her?

What happens to Shanghai when Alice dies?

>>1205657
This one?
Demour402 - New Moon

>>1205671

In the canon, the dolls are inert. They do not have will, or anything like that. They are completely controlled by Alice.

>>1205671

Maybe they'll ironically finally awaken as Youkai themselves and Alice will have achieved her dream in death.

;_;

>>1205751
God damn! That would make an epic story.

;_;

>>1205739
No! ;_;

Youkai only die if they don't use their powers for a long time

>>1205743
>>the balls are inert
fixed

>>1205751
Not unlikely, actually; possessions cherished by the dead during their lifetime have a tendency to become youkai.

>>1205808
You can kill themt to and wen they get to old the just die in their sleep.

>>1205836
Or they can just read your post and kill themselves after looking at your grammar.

>>1205811
Alice died years ago; Shanghai keeps Alice's body preserved and moving as a puppet in order to hide Alice's death from Marisa.

>>1205836
http://touhou.wikia.com/wiki/Youkai

>It seems that youkai, like fairies, may not be able to die permanently; Hieda no Akyu, Reimu Hakurei and others regularly discuss 'extermination' of youkai as if it were only a temporary measure.

>>1205848
Alice possessed Shangai and she controls her old body

>>1205852
I think that might just mean that they don't die when they are killed; they seem to still be able to die from old age, at least if they are the ghost-variety of youkai. (Yuyuko being singled out as an exception.)

>>1205867
Was Yuyuko the exception? She was scared of becoming immortal, so that suggests that she can die of old age.

I actually like to think most of the Touhous are in their 20s, unless they are plainly child-like.

>>1205875
I thought she was scared of immortals, since she didn't have power over them? When did she say that she was afraid of becoming immortal?

(In any case, most likely the youkai cherry tree isn't immortal anyways, so unlifespan is probably just extended to however long the tree lasts.)

>>1205875
If memory serves, youkai sleep more and more as they age, until they simply disappear in their sleep.

>>1205875
Yuyuko's "life" is bound to the Saigyou Ayakashi, she's immortal as long as it exists.

>>1205898
So... is Yukari going to disappear soon, or is the amount of time it takes to reach that point so long, it might as well be considered immortality?

>>1205892
From the IN Ghost Team Extra:

But what is there to be afraid of, Miss Yuyuko?

A human who drinks the Hourai Elixir never ages, never dies.

If another human eats the liver of that person,
that person too will never age and never die.

And if a ghost eats it...?

An immortal ghost is born.

Thus, the cycle of Hourai ends. The soul will never rest or reincarnate, and the effect is lost.

>>1205909
She's becoming less active so I guess she will...

>>1205898
fuck....that means...yukari....wtf?

Somebody repost 1205898 I didn't get to read it

>>1205867
If memory serves, youkai sleep more and more as they age, until they simply disappear in their sleep.

>>1205909
Yukari is well on her way there. Ran has already taken over her role of maintaining the Gensokyo border.

>>1205922
Are there any doujins that actually explore that possibility, while still taking Ran and Chen into account?

>>1205922
Id luagh if somehow yukari gets reborn..

Yuyuko is not a youkai. Not even part-youkai. She is a full ghost. This means she can't die, because she is already dead, unless she decides to "ascend", in which case she will simply go to heaven.

>>1205929
There's the one where Yukari disappears and Reimu has to keep the border from collapsing. Ran goes missing and Aya finds Chen alone at Mayohiga, stripped of her powers.

>>1205836
>>1205931

Why can't Yukari simply mess with her Border of Life and Death, making herself immortal in the strict sense?

>>1205939
Doesn't Ran disappear if she loses her powers? She gets her powers from obeying orders from Yukari so she would disappear since Yukari is gone. So will Chen since Ran will disappear.

>>1205933
I'm pretty sure that Touhou yuurei are considered a type of youkai.

>>1205946
not same person

>>1205957
Given that Chen is only weakened when she isn't around Ran, I would assume that Ran would be weakened but not destroyed if Yukari disappeared.

>>1205939
Yeah I've read that one. Wondering if there was more, though.

>>1205957
Does she? I was under the impression that if Yukari were to disappear, Ran's abilities would just be severely diminished, down to her natural abilities as a kitsune.

>>1205957
Ran and Chen are just beast youkai who are given extra power by Yukari. She offered to do the same for Aya, but was refused.

>>1205683
>>1205684
It was fine until they kissed. I think I'll just delete that page.

>>1205933
Presumably, something bad will happen to you if you stay to long as a ghost. Otherwise, there would be no incentive to be judged if you know you had a sinful life. Death as a ghost would be, I guess, just ceasing to exist at all.

Yuyuko was chosen by Sikieki to rule hakugyotl;dr I guess nothing bad will happen to her

>>1206071
Sikieiki doesn't strike me as the kind that would let someone off for that; maybe a lighter sentence in light of her service, but justice must still be done.

>>1206071
What the hell, man, make sure your posts are coherent before posting.

>>1206044 She offered to do the same for Aya, but was refused.

>Yukari: If you can't understand, want to give it a shot? Become my shikigami. If you do, I think you'll be able to understand.

>>1206093
In context of the rest of the interview, it seems more like a playful jab rather than a serious proposition.

>>1206093
So the manga was translated? Link please!

>>1206107
Being Yukari, you never know.

>>1206118
True. I guess it's more or less open to interpretation.

>>1206044

Just Yukari being Yukari, teasing Aya fits her personality.

>>1206092
All Sikieiki did was give Yuyuko the title of Ghost Princess, she has nothing to do with her longevity.

>The reason Yuyuko can neither reincarnate nor vanish is because of the seal on the Saigyou Ayakashi. Once the boundary is breached, the time that was frozen will continue to flow, resulting in her death again. Reviving the corpse will destroy Yuyuko's ghost, so it's no wonder that the near-success of the revival ended in inevitable failure.

>>1206093
The whole Shikigami thing is so abstract and vaguely defined. What exactly does fighting at Yukari's level mean? I can't see Ran opening gaps or manipulating borders. From what we know, that's where most of Yukari's power lies. (Unlike say, Yuka)

>>1206107

Or both, since it's Yukari.

>>1206157
I still get the feeling that Yukari would have done it if given the chance.

>>1206185

You just to imagine upping Ran's laser beams to such a high level that it can overcome enemies that only abstract boundary magic can defeat......

>>1206185
Satori's power is just to read people's hearts, but she's able to use your partner's powers. Ran using gaps seems reasonable when you consider that her spellcards are basically the same as Yukari's, only weaker because she was disobeying orders.

>>1206193
>>1206188
Nah, I don't see Yukari like that.
