Home Alone was a delusion in Kevin's mind and he was actually killed at the very start.

>>12112354

That's my theory for Super 8. Train crash killed 'em/put 'em all in the hospital, and the entire movie is just a coma dream playing out in the main kids head before he dies.

Totoro is the God of death

Somebody post the Sanae in a wheelchair one.

>>12113898
I'm interested in this.

I kinda like your theory

The main character in Unbreakable actually drowned in the pool when he was a kid and has a delusion that he is immortal

>>12113898
>>12113917
Bump for this story.

>>12113948
Lying is wrong, anon

I wish more of this for another touhou character, not random movie. are we on /jp ?

Sorry, meant this

Eiki is the judge that had Maribel committed and Komachi's the bailiff. Yuuka's the asylum gardener. Yukari is the truly crazy inmate that's gone totally into her own mind and speaks in cryptic riddles.

>>12114473
Wait, so is she just dreaming or what? I can't quite get the context just from the picture. I have to infer too much.

>>12114480
She's a crippled shut-in with dolls. Gensokyo is the fantasy she's invented to escape her shitty existence.

>>12114485
Oh. Oh... >>12099493

>>12114478
Ran is the dedicated doctor trying to un-crazy Yukari. The Watatsukis are two patients with delusions of grandeur. Remi and Guya are both girls with really bad chuuni. Nitori's a mechanical idiot savant. Flan is a girl who withdrew into herself after a tragic event but is beginning to renormalize. Shinmyoumaru is a patient with some kind of deformative affliction who nevertheless remains cheery and confident. Oh, and I should add that maybe, to account for the Maribel-Yukari connection, the truly crazy prisoner Maribel imagines to be Yukari is actually Maribel herself...spooooky.

>>12114505
Oh yeah, and Renko is Maribel/Yukari's therapist.

>>12114507
Reimu is the priest's daughter from a local religious establishment. Her beliefs are never specified, she might be agnostic, but she visits each and every patient with confidence and dedication to try and help people secure their already-tenuous tethers with the real world. Not every patient likes her for it, and her down-to-earth ways even lead to some friction with the institution employees, as well. Nonetheless, she's a fixture in the halls of the institution ever since her infrequent visits with the now-deceased Mima, her third-grade teacher who found out, much too late, that she had a brain tumor.

By the time of Mima's death, she was as pale as a ghost, always in a wheelchair with a blanket and pan over her legs because she was having trouble keeping her food down. Mima's death was unceremonious, she just kind of faded away, and with that, Reimu came to visit only to find that her old teacher wasn't there.

In a melancholy, Reimu wandered the halls of the institution, falling into her own dark world, until she ran into Rumia, or rather, Rumia ran into her. Rumia was a recently blinded girl who couldn't quite cope with the stick she was given to find her way around, so she just stretched her arms out and hoped for the best. Even though she clearly had no vision, the girl couldn't quite accept that she was handicapped and tried to run around aimlessly like any child does. Watch out for that tree, little Rumia..

That little encounter made Reimu interested in the other patients, and soon, she was visiting illustrious characters like the albino wishful young gardener with an attachment to her pillow, the caped Wriggle, and a little girl with recently amputated legs who had the absolute time of her life when Reimu carried her around in a bucket.

this thread is really interesting, keep going, dude

>>12114618
Poor blind Rumia.

I want to hit people with these opinions with heavy rocks. I will not feel sorry, and no jury will convict me, for I am just and true in my actions.

Even Shiki will praise me.

>>12114660
You think people believe in this?

/jp/ does not exist.
You're just in coma and now live in an eternal loop where you see your worst depts of your mind, /jp/ is a rapresentation of you.

>>12113895
holy f*ck

>>12114980
If you turn back fast enough, you can see the dream build up behind you to fit your field of vision.

Marisa was actually Mima's daughter, made a frequent visitor by that fact. One Halloween, she visited her mother in costume, and Mima's twisted mind had her thinking that Marisa had grown up and made something of herself by becoming a magician. Faced with the possibility of having her mother die happy, Marisa continued the facade and went on to show little tricks to her dying mother to entertain her.

What really got her mother going was the little trick where you spray through a lighter with an aerosol can, making a flamethrower-like effect. The institution didn't condone her doing this, so she visited the man next door, a grey-haired man with Asperger's who made it his duty to collect and pretty much just look at whatever odds and ends he could find. He had delusions that he could sell his collected junk, and Marisa wound up trading him a scrap of metal for a metal music box, which she loaded with a lighter and a small aerosol can. You can imagine what she made of that.

Donning an interesting outfit earned her attention among the patients, and she eventually got around to performing tricks for them, starting with Alice Margatroid, a girl with severe autism who was overcoming her disorder by using dolls and puppets as her proxy to connect with people, though initially, she couldn't speak. When people picked up her dolls and started playing with them, she used dolls she was holding to interact with dolls they were holding. However, she was entranced by Marisa herself, a girl dressed like a doll. Noticing this, her chaperon Shinki pointed one of Alice's dolls toward Marisa, and Alice approached. Shinki explained the situation to Marisa, who was a little annoyed since she had come to visit her dying mother. Nonetheless, Marisa led Alice and Shinki to Mima's room and spent time with them there. When it got to entertaining Mima, Alice was dazzled by the glitter, smoke, and laser show coming from the living doll Marisa..

>>12116641
Who is the man with Asperger's supposed to represent?

>>12116668
Rinnosuke.

Touhou was actually created by a Korean programmer named Jun-Suk Kim.
The game, which initially was titled as 토호 (translating to "eastern wonderland")
was stolen by a Japanese assistant to the original creator, who called himself "ZUN"
(note the resemblance to the original programmer's name) and leaked at Comiket before
the game could be released in Korea.

To silence Junsuk Kim, ZUN threatened to sue him for copyright infringements
(as Kim had little evidence that he had indeed created the game) and continued to use the
Korean programmer to create additional games for the series.

>>12116668
All of /jp/

>>12116730
Were the Amusement Makers a secret sect of programming prodigies bent on uploading their minds into a world full of magical girls? The PC-98 games would've been a front for them while they worked their way toward their final goal.

These two were sweet, thanks anon.

More please.

>>12116730

Nice story, except everyone knows a Korean would never work with a Jap in the first place. Who are you, and what do you want?

>>12116641
Sakuya was transferred to the institution as one of the caretakers, and she was assigned to attend to the orphaned Remilia and Flandre. The two sisters have the aforementioned afflictions as different ways of dealing with the loss of their parents, and they're often apart because Flandre's fragile state doesn't mesh well with Remilia's drive to exhibit her childish power.

After an incident where Remilia stashed silverware and started playing with it, Sakuya would occasionally be seen confiscating forks and butter knives from Remi's room. The patients who saw didn't quite know what to make of that, but Hong Meiling, a young girl with a pituitary disorder, took a particular interest in how Sakuya was taking weapons away from the little monster in that room. Meiling then began her imaginary martial arts training to become "the crouching dragon" so she might one day be as strong as Sakuya.

Patchouli, after having been admitted as a suicide risk, refused to take solace from people she believed didn't understand. She became a shut-in and referred to other people as her demons, calling her attendant "Little Demon" because of the woman's stature. Koakuma wound up writing notes to Patchouli, eventually writing down the stories of other patients and leaving them by Patchy's bed side, just to show her that someone understands. One of the first stories, the plight of the Scarlet sisters, is what triggered Patchouli's approach to Koakuma. Patchy met the sisters, and she was charmed by the dejected little Flandre. As Patchouli underwent treatment, she made frequent visits to Flan, culminating in Patchy reading books as bedtime stories for the younger Scarlet. She was a major factor in Flandre opening up, though the nature of the stories made Flan into a little oddball. "One little soldier boy left all alone. He couldn't dodge bullets, ..."

These are probably the most boring theories around.

There's just so many terrible 'IT WAS ALL IN THEIR HEAD' theories that if you see one, you've most likely seen them all.

>>12119242
I wouldn't go so far as to call them theories; they're ideas. I'm just using that one idea as a foundation, just like how most of everything Touhou is built on the fairly flexible foundation of Touhou canon.

>>12119295
>Getting glazed sugar on the Fumo

I am slightly anxious now.
Thanks.

Someone write one for Chen, or for the Taoists.

Please write about Seija or Parsee, good Anon

>>12119498
Chen is a housecat. Ran is a crazy cat lady. But it goes deeper than that. Ran herself is actually a cat, and Yukari is a crazy old cat lady who can't tell the difference between a cat and a fox.

what about this
all the touhous are actually a bunch of male twinks who pretend to be girls. that's why they are all flat chested despite being a million years old or whatever.

Gensokyo does exist, you idiots
Everything exists, do you even multiverse fagits?

>>12119594
Which means that our silly stories also exist!

>>12119594
There's a universe where your alternate self lives a happy life with everything the you of this universe has ever wished for. There's a universe where you made friends, was popular, and lived a wonderful childhood. There's a universe where you were never born.

>>12119242

It's more playing with the idea than claiming theory.

>>12112295
Then I guess Reimu is the psychopath who ends up bringing a semi automatic rifle to the hospital and shooting up the children, correct?

>>12121549
Go away.

>>12119662
both sound awesome

>>12119594
Well duh. There are people who haven't figured this out yet?

>>12121565
>>12121549
No she just asks for money first.
