Cool secondary bullshit.

>Because of the youkai's civilization of magic, the youkai grew to be powerful enough to freely open even the Great Barrier sealing Gensokyo.
>Food-gathering teams would go out at regular intervals to hunt humans. Of course, the youkai couldn't let the humans know that they were on to them. Under the guise of various accidents and incidents of people running away from home, the youkai hunted humans. A simple missing person would barely even make the news; meanwhile, the humans living in the human world only multiplied.

I thought they have annual hunting parties to the Outside.

I'm sure it was mentioned somewhere in canon, like in the prologue of EoSD, or PCB, or something.

I speculate Yukari is behind it because she's the one who can control the Border other than Reimu.

Yeah, that's why I think the Border is more for the humans rather than the youkai.

Think about it. If you're a human, the only way you can leave Gensokyo is by the permission of Reimu or Yukari. In a way, you can think of Gensokyo as a gigantic jail, designed to keep the humans in just to preserve youkai.

There are several ways in and out of Gensokyo that do not involve going through the barrier but are not accessable by normal humans.
You can travel freely to Gensokyo via heaven, hell, the neatherworld and the moon. None of which are currently acessable by normal humans.
The Moriya Shrine though was LET IN by Yukari. Reimu wasn't being active enough so she brought in competition, being Gods Kanako and Suwako could come to Gensokyo anytime they chose-apparently they didn't know about it until recently-through any of these alternate routes. But bringing the shrine itself, that had to come through the barrier.

Okay wait, lakes got forgotten and migrate to Gensokyo?

Sorry but that's utter bullshit. It was Kanako's plan. And I really doubt Yukari wants all this religion wars crap in her peaceful Gensokyo.

Moriyas are masterminds behind pretty much everything important that happened since MoF.

In fact these motherfuckers have already killed analogues of Touhou characters throughout both games.

That's only because they quite literally have an infinite amount of tries to figure out how to best them due to them being spirits and undead. Now you've got me curious as to what kind of weapons can be made out of slain Touhou souls.
