//I wanna sick mainverse Gojira on Gensokyo... Which Touhou character should I torture with her? Hmm...

small psa for people getting into touhou in 2015 or consider themselves new fans

there’s a lot of official material. that might seem overwhelming, but please don’t let that keep you from tackling the official works. don’t be afraid to just dive headfirst in!

there is an order where in all the games/manga/books take place, but it’s really straight forward most of the time, like touhou 7 takes place after touhou 6 and so on. play the games in the order that suit you the best. play the game that seems the most fun to you! you can always play the other games later.

the print works and manga are a great way to get to know the characters and universe better, generally much more so than the games. read the official manga!

it’s ok to play on easy, no matter what people say. seriously, easy mode exists for a reason. if zun didn't want to play his games on easy, easy wouldn't exist.

there are a lot of things that don’t really seem to make sense in the beginning. touhou can be pretty unconventional, and there are some foreign concepts in gensoukyou. that’s fine. things will make sense to you eventually

don’t trust what all the characters say. don’t trust Akyuu, either. everyone has an agenda. there is no character in Touhou who is a reliable narrator. be skeptical, but also remember to have fun questioning the characters words, intentions and motives.

Headcanons: Speech and Living Habits

Gojira’s means of communication and speech patterns change from verse to verse. Here are the headcanons for this particular blog’s methods of both.

Main verse (Daikaiju): Gojira’s primary and really only way of communication is telepathy. In a lot of the Heisei movies, as well a couple Showa era movies, Telepathy and mental communication has been shown to be an effective means of controlling, understanding, and/or communicating with Gojira. Through the course of all of this, Gojira has learned to actively project her thoughts unto others in the forme of a sort of mental communication, be it one on one, or to multiple beings at once. Gojira’s main area of living is the Japan Trench, though she will often travel between there, Odo Island’s waters, and Lagos Island, aka Monster Island, one of the suspected places of Origin of Gojira.

Alt Verse (Monmusu): Capable of human speech as what humans refer to as a “monster girl”, Gojira has no difficulty speaking her mind. Here, it mostly her speech patterns. Living in Japan, in the world of humans and technology, Gojira is fluent in English and Japanese, as they are the two main languages she has had exposure to. When speaking English, she has an accent, of what most Japanese residents sound like when speaking English as a second language. Her native dialect is the “standard” Tokyo dialect, as her residence in Tokyo Bay and often appearance in Tokyo has affected her enough to pick up their dialect the most, despite not actually spending most of her time there. Gojira is traditional in her ways of speech here, and does not speak with contractions, and is mostly polite and quite upstanding despite being a monster. Gojira, here, spends a lot of her time on Odo Island, an island within the Bonin Islands of Japan, often on the beaches, concealed within the rocks as best she can. Other places include a massive den deep inside of Tokyo Bay, an island commonly referred to as Monster Island, and sometimes, Tokyo Harbour, if she is lucky enough to not be spotted before she makes it there.

Touhou verse (Monmusu/Daikaiju shift): Gojira here is relatively the same as the Alt verse, however there are a couple differences. For one, she is quite the kuudere and doesn’t particularly care for anyone, save for a couple people. Her temper is much shorter, and she speaks with a more crude tone of voice. She is rather uptight and stuck up, but not a bad person by any means. Her time here is spent mostly either in Utsuho’s reactor or a den deep under a large lake in the Forest of Magic. She will often encounter the Mermaid, Wakasagihime, and tell her stories of her past, and get really into it.

Similarly, both the Touhou verse and Monmusu verse alternates are capable of telepathic speech, but do not use it nearly as often when they speak with someone who is capable of audible communication.

//Just so you know, oceanusdraco​, ghidorxh​ and destrxyah​ are still active, as is this blog, I’m just more or less waiting on replies. Should you need to contact me, you can always do it on my main blog, since I’m not on this one 24/7 unless quick-replying. Still tempted to make another sub blog, or add a side muse to Youko’s blog for Mew Mothra.

//I’m tempted to make a full on TMM protrag unit of kaiju girls tbh. Mothra, Radon, Biollante, and Gojira... Unfortunately they need a fifth; MechaGojira would be... awkward for a TMM verse magical girl, given her cyborg nature, and Zilla... well it could work I guess, but Gojira already represents that part. 

Gojira represents the power of nature and what costly consequences can arise when humans decide to mess with it. Radon is similar, but we need an aerial combatant. Biollante is the “just because we can do it, does it mean we should” lesson, as she was the result of combining Gojira’s cells with a rose’s cell, simply to create an immortal plant species and it turned into a semi-clone of Gojira with plant traits, so a Frankenstein’s Monster kinda thing almost. And Mothra, well, she’s been a long standing guardian of Earth and more or less represents the methods for preservation we must take if we are to save the planet from death, plus she has strong presences in myths and such. MechaG/Kiryu would have the same purpose as Biollante and Zilla the same as Gojira, as would Anguirus. Plus I can’t find a decent gijinka of Anguirus.
