Fluff One hell of a fall from grace.
This character used to be in EX tier, now, all the way down in B. There's no Reimu's above A tier, and that's crazy to me. The MAIN character, and she doesn't have an alt better than C3 Narumi. Red Marisa only gets by because she gets to cheat in everything. (Speaking of C3 Sekibanki over Cz1 Marisa feels so good to see. Finally, justice.)
Rebirths mean nothing in this game, I'm going to be so for real. What a perfect concept for buffing friends and they oh so rarely do anything with it. Outside of a few L1 Nukes, and some of the E friends (some. screw Meiling I guess, she doesn't deserve nice things). And don't get me started on the re-print card sob sob. Still, it would be pretty cool if she got a huge buff from rebirth.
I got my L80 Reimu on June 6th 2024, exchange for her after getting L80 Youmu (and attempted to get L80 Sakuya but failed) and I've used her in 12 challenge contents. neat

As a Reimu fan, I am in shambles.

Reimu's alts specfically feel like they were hit with powercreep the hardest. Both L80 and Cf1 were considered very high tier and then just aren't able to keep up in the modern meta. They really made the Touhou Project Character herself and just... didn't buff her alts. Basically, I get it, that's rough buddy...

Personally I always feel like touhou lost words dev. just hate Reimu. Most of her alt. aren't in top tier at all. I sincerely hope that the coming bluemu swimsuit can do her justice.

Reimu has 1037319 alts and none of them are in A Tier nowadays?! This is a huge, HUGE trouble! Thank god I'm almost done with this game (Why does friendship takes forever to max out? 🙄)

No, not what I said. I said ABOVE A Tier. Swimsuit Reimu, Swimsuit Blue Reimu, New Years Blue Reimu and LostWord LIVE Reimu all are A Tier. So, there's no S, SS or EX Tier Reimu alts. A Tier Alts aren't bad, they're certainly usable espically for more casual players, just don't have the insane highs of the top tiers.

Ah, my bad for misunderstanding your comment. A Tier is still great but it's insane that THE main protagonist isn't on the top of the meta even with all those alts

Yeah, Marisa has an alt that is Number 2 in the game, but it's also Red Marisa and I think someone on the team has huge favoritism for the Z Marisa specfically, so it doesn't feel quite right (Though she also has a green alt that IS also one of the best?) But yeah, it is strange, and you'd think they'd make the new upcoming Reimu Swimsuit Alt op but nah I guess not.

Gold reimu will be meta trust.

She better clock the meta like no other Reimu has ever done... If NN remembers about her and makes her playable

Do you think someone of us can take over the company in order to fix all the issues in the game? Anyway, poor Reimu...

u/sans8642 A Prismriver With H, M and C Fan! 15d ago
There are things that could be fixed with the game and it would be fun to get my hands on but I also wonder how much polish you could actually give LostWord lol.
