There are some doujins where you see more traditional depictions of youkai hanging around Gensokyo, as well as just some strange creatures from all cultures and weird monsters that aren’t depicted as silly-hat wearing girls. I’ve always liked those because it seemed pretty funny to me that someone like, say, Yukari would be hanging out with a big angry cyclops-looking creature and they would both be considered dangerous monsters. Not a very far-fetched idea at all that she would be familiar with this kind of thing (or perhaps even nostalgic or something) when a giant hulking moon rabbit has her in her clutches.

Personally I preferred IaMP’s system better, where the characters spit out point/bomb items when you slapped them out of their attacks. Made it feel closer to the shmups in terms of aesthetics.
Okay maybe I was half kidding when I was talking about Suika not being destructive around the Hakurei shrine.
And with this, the real calamities start. Woe to those who cross the miko’s path!
UPPERCUT is just a fun thing to yell in casual conversation when talking about fighting games with your friends or miming actions in said conversations.
Also I kinda half-assed tried to recreate that background that pops up when you super/ultra finish someone in Super Street Fighter 4 for that last panel. Lame attempt at a shoutout to a fighting game, really.
Updates after the hiatus! Text got changed a little because I wanted to format it a little better, but otherwise nothing much different. Aya is extremely fun to write dialogue for like this.
