I wouldn't exactly call WaHH's art good when compared to the other manga.

2hu mangos are the only SoLs which i read and enjoy

Because ZUN is not a good writer. I'm not even memeing I love Touhou but every story he's written sucks when not in a game, in which they are composed of just short phrases and bantz, a bit of story progression, and a short ending.

That's because you were expecting some battle shounen arc instead of you know, what's basically a SoL work. If you want epic action, it's shit, but if you just want a chill fantasy SoL about cute girls solving random incidents, it's fine.

Sad

Because ZUN made them.

Characters aren't good when you go into detail with their personalities

How about Yukari?

>but the plot always sucks ass?
Because you didn't read Bougetsushou.

Because it has soul and considers itself SoL first and foremost

Yukari is overrated.

This is why Forbidden Scrollery is perfect.
Except for that ending, holy shit

im a huge touhou fan but i've never read any of the mangas, which one is the best one/which one should i start with?

Silent sinner in blue because it's by far the weakest one

FS and WaHH are fun for mystery/lore/SoL, but if you want cute stuff you should read the fairies manga (there are a few)
SSiB is the first one, but it's pretty weak.

I like SsiB, it felt like the games

Sacrilege

Kinda hard to write a good story when ZUN wants to keep the status quo at all cost

for me it's the bunny manga

As expected of Kensokyrös cheapest prostitute!

that's reimu

How much does she charge?

Who is the most expensive?
Kasen?

tonights dinner

My wife Kasen isn't a prostitute but a revered hermit

You have to treat lewd pink to a full course dinner before you even pay for her actual services.

Jo'on, and she's not worth the price.

I would prefer Shion.

Eiki of course.

She'll make you just as poor as Jo'on

:----DDDD

Joon just makes you poorer
Shion kills you with misfortune

But she's cute.

Can't tell if elaborate joke or
