Transcript
- (Marisa, Alice (and Shanghai), Suika, and Reimu are sitting at the steps of the Hakurei Shrine.)
Marisa: (patting Alice's head) So, I've been spendin' a buncha time on the internet ...
Reimu: Oh right ... Kanako and all the kappa have been working on bringing in technology from the Outside World, haven't they? - Marisa: Well, more reverse-engineerin' it, mostly. But it's too bad Yukari won't let me post on message boards, I totally wanna troll some /b/-tards ...
Reimu: (skeptically) Is she, uh, physically preventing you somehow? Because I know you've been downloading all those MP3s ... (aside) And those "Seihou Project" games ...
Alice: Yeah, she set up this ... proxy ... firewall ... something that stops people in Gensokyo from *sending* information. - (Suika begins crazily wobbling.)
Marisa: (slyly) Welllll, ya know. Nitori's figurin' out how to get around that kinda stuff. I wanna play Team Fortress 2 with Chiyuri!
Reimu: Well, okay, but be careful. These "computers" are hard to come by and expensive, and I've heard there's bad sides to the internet. - Marisa: Hey, what's the worst thing that could happen?
(Ruukoto flies into the panel backwards and upside-down. Alice looks up at Marisa in annoyance.)
Ruukoto: Help! Orin accidentally installed malware on me!
Suika SFX: Whut?

haha, oh wow. I think you've set a new record with that one, KM.
now lets all go donate to charities and relief efforts to make Gensokyo worse!

@sRc
Wait, so taking it easy possibly damages Gensokyo...
Wait, but that would mean...
The Yukkuris. They're trying to destroy Gensokyo by spreading their meme and getting people to take it easy!

Except that Yukkuris only exist in Gensokyo (and even then only in some continuities), and it has to be disbelief in the Outside World.

But technically, according to the above, Yukkuris are actually from Lucky Star. So, they neither "actually-exist" nor would they be in Gensokyo.
CapedLuigisYoshi
That's why I said "only in some continuities". Some have Yukkuris, others (including yours and the official canon) don't.

On a less "The world runs on pessimism!" tangent, I have a question:
If the Seihou Project exists in the world without the Touhou games, how do you reconcile the fact that the first Seihou game has Marisa and Reimu as an Ex-Bosses?
Dizzy H. Slightly Voided
Easy: in the Touhouverse, the Seihou games aren't the same as they are here; they follow the format and gameplay of the Touhou games, and the first Seihou game is basically Highly Responsive to Prayers except with Seihou characters and settings, titled Highly Sensitive to Signal, and they all had similar names to their Touhou counterparts. The third one is still called Phantasmagoria of Dim.Dream, though, and Ellen from Hatarakimono is still in it.

Is this why Ellen doesn't exist in your Touhou?

On the note, I think the idea that "because Gensokyo is cool the outside world must suck" is a bit jumping to conclusions... That's saying that everything in Gensokyo is caused by disbelief, and that's a bit hard to swallow - trees, lakes, crows, animals, etc - if that principle applied then people wouldn't believe in any of them, and that's why they're in Gensokyo. Yeeeeah.

Man you thought long and hard about this, and you made me think long and hard. Both are RARE on the internet these days.

*finally notices comment* Thanks. ;3
Also I've adjusted the "Crapsack World" comments so that they apply more to people living in the Magical Undergroud, who are ... well, as I said, just ask Kanako. ;)

I can't decide what's more awesome: the clever way I depicted Marisa stroking Alice (it's a trick of hiding Marisa's arm behind Alice's head), or Suika wobbling around in the corner there. In any event, it makes sense that Ruukoto would be able to have a built-in internet connection, doesn't it?
KirbyM's up to Sakuya in the create.swf updates, whee. I'm still gonna use the original bluish color for Reimu's hair, though — for consistency's sake, first of all, and it also just seems more right somehow than the brownish shade in the more recent updates.
Of course, unless you subscribe to the theory that ZUN is drinking buddies with Yukari and/or going out with Aya, the Touhou Project series doesn't exist in the Touhou 'verse. This has had several effects in the Outside World of Touhou Nekokayou:
