Howdy folks, as usual whenever I say I'll upload more it means you get to wait a bit longer for me to upload something. I've got a more meaty (heh) pic and story this time to make up for it though!

One day, a mysterious flash of piercing light occurred overnight in the land of Gensokyo...when the residents all woke up the next morning, they noticed something off about themselves! As it turns out, their heads had been swapped onto other people's bodies! Some are happy to get what they perceived to be better bodies, while others are upset at being forced into a less than ideal situation. Who could have been the culprit that caused such a crime? Seems like another incident is brewing once more!

 

TOUHOU PROJECT 19: LIGHTSWITCH HEADING (東方Project19:ライトスイッチの見出し)

 

PLAYABLE CHARACTERS:

 

SANAE HAKUREI

SPEED * * *

ATTACK * * *

RANGE * * *

 

Sanae reacted well enough to the incident; now that she had the Hakurei shrine maiden's body, she was able to use the Hakurei Orbs without issue. This means that on top of her 'ability to cause miracles' she can now utilize the Hakurei Orbs as a means of attack! Their consistent homing prowess and average damage are all staples of the usual play style, choose her if you want to survive to the end without worry.

 

"I wonder if I can use my business rival's body better than SHE ever could? Then the Moriya shrine will have acquired not just the Hakurei power, but all of her few remaining followers as well!"

 

REIMU IZAYOI

SPEED * *

ATTACK * * * *

RANGE * * * *

 

While Reimu was as grumpy as ever in regards to the news that her body got hijacked, having Sakuya's body made things less bad than they could have been. With her newfound 'ability to manipulate time' plus the handiwork of being able to throw countless knives, one could argue that she only got MORE dangerous as a result. Thankfully, she seems content to use her busted move set to simply chill for longer than usual in the Hakurei Shrine Grounds...until the next youkai wants to get in her way that is. Choose her if you like playing aggressively.

 

"Geeze, if this truly HAS affected everyone in Gensokyo then finding out where my body is will be a real pain in the ass...if I'm lucky maybe Yukari will know what's up; she seems like the type of person to do this sort of thing 'for fun'..."

 

MARISA KOCHIYA

SPEED *

ATTACK * * * * *

RANGE *

 

At first Marisa thought that one of her witchy experiments had gone wrong, yet the immediate weight of the situation was felt as heavily as reality would allow. She doesn't mind though, if it means becoming a demi-goddess without losing her humanity then chances are she can live with it for the foreseeable future! A well timed Master Spark alongside her newly-minted shrine maiden abilities makes for a shocking play style! Ironically enough, this makes her SLOWER than the usual game play suggests; choose her if you like keeping movement to a minimum.

 

"Heh! This wasn't the route I would THINK I'd be taking to become more powerful, and yet here we are! Sure hope that Sanae won't worry about seeing what this body is capable of, in more ways than one..."

 

YOUMU UDONGEIN-INABA

SPEED *

ATTACK * * *

RANGE * * * * *

 

Eager to please, Youmu took to her new form like a fish to water given that she was tired of being so short compared to the rest of the incident resolvers in Gensokyo. There WERE a few downsides to getting bigger though; she doesn't have her phantom familiar anymore since her body's not half ghost! For another thing, quick sword slashes will prove to be a challenge as there's two VERY noticeable reasons stopping her from doing so..as such all of her attacks will be supplemented by charging her attacks, but when released they pack a serious punch! For whatever reason, there's also something sensually unnerving causing a high arousal of emotions?!? Choose her if you enjoy making enemies suffer after a prolonged period.

 

"If it's to make Yuyuko-Sama ecstatic, then I'll go through any hardship to try and make her proud! Secretly I always wanted to be more like my mistress, and this body was an unexpectedly good boon in helping to accomplish my goals!"

 

SAKUYA KONPAKU

SPEED * * *

ATTACK * *

RANGE * * * *

 

The maid of the Scarlet Devil Mansion was miffed to learn that her elegant and sleek body was stolen from her and replaced with a good acquaintances...but the new phantom familiar was nice for keeping company at least. She can't exactly stop time sadly, however her ghostly friend was more than willing to help out with chores! A monumental task for sure, seeing as how the interior of the mansion is a time and space anomaly on a good day, and an endless nightmare at worst...two swords that can cut confusion and mow down enemies in quick succession will have to do so far as housekeeping goes. Choose her if you don't mind a slightly different play style that doesn't lack in quirkiness.

 

"I can't help but feel less efficient with this smaller body of mine...how will I be able to overcome the mistresses countless demands when I can't even stop time? This incident must be stopped at all costs, or else I'll be the one paying for it later..."

 

REISEN KIRISAME

SPEED * * * * *

ATTACK * *

RANGE * *

 

As the final playable character, Reisen was more than beaming at being so much lighter both mentally and physically after the incident began. Now she can zoom along through the Bamboo Forest of the Lost to deliver medicinal goods and avoid Tewi's traps with ease! Plus, if worst comes to worst she might be able to avoid involving herself with Eirin's madcap plots with her lunacy inducing eyes and get away with it! One shudders to imagine the pain that she underwent due to her former vessel limiting her chances of escape...she couldn't help it if the doctor made her that way due to wanting a sexy assistant to look at during boring scientific procedures! But that was all in the past; she was now fleet-footed as a bunny SHOULD be! Choose her if you prefer to run away from problems in life.

 

"Ahh~ I haven't felt so good in years! I can think of things OTHER than breeding, and the customers don't stare at me incessantly. Granted, I'm lacking in height...although being the same size as most of the other Eientei rabbits isn't an issue...oh well!"

 

And so, Gensokyo has yet another crisis on it's heels. The protagonists will at some point need to make heads or tails of the task in front of them...but with no leads to work off of where will they start? That depends on who YOU choose to play as of course!


Whew! I wasn't lying when I said this was a large update! To make up for it I might upload something smaller to help digest this head swap, and hopefully that won't take a thousand years to come out. If it does, you can feel free to ridicule me for leading you by the ear haha. I've been waiting for so long to show you all this edit as I think it came out super well! Okay, enough talk; have yourself a good one wherever it is that you're at!
