comment
Suikakasen is a Film Comic based on Touhou Project created by Joyful (ジョイフル� ) of Nico Nico Douga, also known for creating Osana Reimu. While some elements have become victim to Outdated by Canon, it generally sticks close to the information provided or implied by official Touhou Project materials. It takes inspiration from various games, but it provides most of its credit to Touhou Ibarakasen ~ Wild and Horned Hermit. It is based on a previous collaboration between Joyful and the doujin group Liz Triangle, a PV called Immortal Philosophy. It was published in 2017 in the blu-ray 「RED� as one of Liz Triangle's last works before their disbandment.Thousands of years ago, the Oni Suika encountered a starving little girl waiting for her mother, and offered her the Ibaraki Box of a Hundred Medicines to heal her wounds and gain eternal life to get another chance to see her parent. That girl grew up to become the oni Kasen Ibaraki, and lived with the other oni as a bandit until they were all poisoned and had to go into hiding after losing a rough battle. Kasen had her arm cut off during the fight, and upon arriving at the gate Rajoumon where her severed arm might be stored, finds that a barrier prevents her from entering. A nearby poet named Yoshika mistakes Kasen for a hermit and wants to be taught her ways. Kasen sees this as an opportunity to get assistance for retrieving her arm, and both of their lives change from there...The full series with English subtitles is available on YouTube.Since this is the creator of Osana Reimu, have some tissues handy.NOTE: Information related to canon Touhou materials that qualifies for Late-Arrival Spoiler or Foregone Conclusion will be unmarked. You have been warned.

comment
Darker and Edgier: While still relatively optimistic with plenty of lighthearted moments, compared to Touhou Ibarakasen ~ Wild and Horned Hermit, Suikakasen is more violent and deals with themes of death and loss that even said manga's Cerebus Syndrome from chapters published after this series was released didn't touch. It's also this compared to the Immortal Philosophy PV, as most of Kasen and Yoshika's angst was not present and it features an unambiguously-happy ending compared to the Bittersweet Ending of this series.

Gone Horribly Right: Kasen successfully poisons Suika by replacing her gourd with a fake containing the poisoned sake from the day of their defeat, but Suika using that same gourd to fill Kasen's Box of a Hundred Medicines means that she gets poisoned too. She admits to this miscalculation.

 Suikakasen (Webcomic) / int_22cf536c
comment
Chekhov's Gun: The same sake that was used to poison the oni on the day they had to go into hiding is used by Kasen to poison Suika. Unfortunately, Suika pouring some of that sake into Kasen's Box of a Hundred Medicines so she could grow her left arm back means that she got poisoned too. Yoshika's ascetic training is what brings back her memories of Kasen after becoming a jiang shi.

Adaptation Expansion
 Suikakasen (Webcomic) / int_23473ae7
comment
Adaptation Expansion: The Immortal Philosophy PV is only four minutes long compared to the one hour and eight minutes length of this series. To give an idea of how much was added, the entirety of the first and third episodes are completely original and not even half of the content from the second and fourth episodes are from the PV. No other characters besides Kasen and Yoshika appeared in the original PV either.

 Suikakasen (Webcomic) / int_297ab1b9
comment
Parental Abandonment: The reason that Kasen got into such bad shape and needed the Box of a Hundred Medicines is because her mother never came to get her like promised. It turns out that angry villagers sacrificed her mother to the water god to stop a terrible storm because they couldn't sacrifice Kasen. Turns out that Suika was an abandoned child too and her original name was Sute Douji (Throw-away Kid).

Loss of Identity: Between the Box of a Hundred Medicines turning Kasen into an oni and her arm being cut off (an arm can be considered someone's power), she's unsure about if she's really an oni or a human. Yoshika points out that if she's unsure about who she is, she could just become a hermit together with her.

Suddenly Obvious Fakery: Episode 3 has Seiga summon a copy of herself to chop up its own arm to emphasize a Humans Are Bastards point she's making to Yoshika. After finishing talking, she reveals that (among other things) the copy is just a puppet, and its elbows and wrists gain obvious doll joints not visible in the previous shots of its seemingly-organic arms.

comment
Humans Are Bastards: Seiga does not have a very pleasant view of humans, pointing out survival revolves around killing others, but that humans are extra cruel because they cut and cook the living things they eat. While witnessing a warzone at the end of episode 3, Seiga laments that humans have begun to kill for reasons other than to gather food and likens them to pests.

Establishing Series Moment: The first episode begins with a rather lighthearted and comical fistfight between Yuugi and Suika as their way of playing rock paper scissors... and then cuts to a flashback of child Kasen starving to death with all of the sadness and angst that comes with such a scene. One hell of a Cerebus Rollercoaster coming up!

 Suikakasen (Webcomic) / int_506ffa51
comment
Tears of Joy: After Kasen and Yoshika's Milholland Relationship Moment, Kasen begins to cry and says that Yoshika is "too nice for [her] own good". A rather twisted example occurs with Seiga in episode 3. At first it appears that she is crying Tears of Remorse, but then it turns out that she is crying happy tears because she finds it hilarious that Yoshika has died. During Kasen's speech, she recounts the impact meeting Yoshika had on her and begins to cry as a result. Constantly during the Big Damn Reunion. First Kasen begins to cry after seeing Yoshika again, then Yoshika begins to cry after getting her memories back and from being able to see Kasen again, and then Seiga (of all people) begins to cry at the sight of their reunion.

Forbidden Friendship: A bit of an odd example in that the "forbidden" part doesn't show up until near the end of the series, but it turns out that Suika is very, very pissed about Kasen's friendship with Yoshika.

Adaptational Angst Upgrade
 Suikakasen (Webcomic) / int_730d3664
comment
Adaptational Angst Upgrade: Compared to Kasen in canon, she has to deal with Parental Abandonment, suffers from Loss of Identity, and goes through enough emotional pain to cry when she has yet to cry in an official work. This series shows Yoshika from before she became Seiga's Soulless Shell servant, and deals with aspects that she can't think about in canon like a fear of death and the sickness that is killing her. Both characters are this compared to the Immortal Philosophy PV, which focused solely on them bonding and their reunion with many of the more darker aspects of this series not present.

Establishing Character Moment
 Suikakasen (Webcomic) / int_7febc23b
comment
Establishing Character Moment: The series displays in the first episode that Kasen isn't quite the blue oni to Suika and Yuugi's red oni yet by having her break up the fight between the two of them, but once they tell her that it's just a friendly rock paper scissors match (yes, the fistfight in which they destroy the surrounding area is rock paper scissors), she happily approves and watches the fight. Her first scene after the Time Skip to her adulthood has a short period of her thinking back to past events with Dull Eyes of Unhappiness to display that she's grown out of her energetic Cheerful Child self and then indulge and join in on a poem Yoshika is making to show that her more peaceful side has taken over. Still, Kasen is shown to not yet be quite like her present-day self as she immediately tries to run away once Yoshika asks for assistance compared to how she usually is. Yoshika is introduced creating a poem, and then witnesses Kasen. She mistakes the oni for a hermit and gets very excited. Once Kasen calls her pet giant eagle, she looks in admiration until she sees that she is trying to escape, upon which she tackles Kasen to knock her out of the air and then ties her to a tree to ensure that she can hear her pleas to want to become a hermit. Yoshika is friendly and admires the lifestyles of hermits, and will do anything to become one herself. Seiga starts off things by covering Yoshika's eyes from behind by creating a hole in the wall and asking her to guess who. She then presents Yoshika with a feast as a premature celebration for meeting the reikon that ends up containing human body parts, along with another version of the hermit arriving behind Yoshika to slice up bits of her arm into the food. One Humans Are Bastards speech later, Seiga reveals that all of this is another prank and the body parts and other Seiga are puppets. Seiga seems playful and approachable, but is very twisted deep down.

She then has a Heel Realization and a change of plans.

Rewatch Bonus: If you're wondering about the significance of the rain in the first episode, the Creative Closing Credits of the final episode show that the rain is the entire reason Kasen and her mother got separated. During the second episode, Yoshika buys some books from a hooded woman in blue robes. This seemingly-insignificant figure is likely to be forgotten about until one rewatches and recognizes her as the one who appears at the end of the episode to reveal herself as Seiga.

Karma Houdini: No one ever really calls out or punishes Seiga for poisoning Yoshika. Possibly justified as things worked out for the better anyway. Played with for the villagers who sacrificed Kasen's mother to the water god. From our perspective, they are responsible for much of the pain in the story, but the legend treats their actions as a case of Earn Your Happy Ending.

Nonstandard Character Design: The oni besides Kasen, Suika and Yuugi have more monstrous designs than the Cute Monster Girl style used for everyone else, although even those three can change their appearance to resemble them more (Suika first meets Kasen in this form for instance).

Good-Times Montage: We see most of Kasen and Yoshika's bonding through one, displaying their hermit training and them partaking in several leisure activities all while Kasen slowly begins to open up more to her new friend.

Hope Spot: Triple subverted. At the start of Kasen and Yoshika's Big Damn Reunion, the former is relieved to see her friend after so long... but she's a Soulless Shell now with no memory of her. Then it is subverted with Yoshika's memory being restored so that they can have the proper reunion, only for that to be subverted too because Yoshika dies soon afterward. Even that did not last however as Kasen meets Yoshika's ghost at the Sanzu River in the final scene, meaning that they aren't permanently separated after all.

Human Sacrifice: The Creative Closing Credits of the final episode tell us a story titled the same as the trope name. A terrible storm arrived and the members of a village blamed an "eerie child" (who is child Kasen) because they thought that she had upset the water god with her presence. They could not find Kasen because her mother had hidden her in the woods, so they decided to sacrifice the woman who gave birth to her instead.

 Suikakasen (Webcomic) / int_cc8b2fd
comment
Ascended Fridge Horror: One of the plot points of the series is the question of "how does Kasen know that the Ibaraki Box of a Hundred Medicines will turn humans into oni?" The first episode shows that Kasen was a former human who would have starved to death if Suika hadn't given the Box to her and turned her into an oni. And that too brings up more horror about how Suika knew that it would turn Kasen into an oni, which also gets answered when Suika admits that she was also an abandoned child who had to drink from the Box and become an oni.

An Arm and a Leg: The main conflict begins once Kasen's right arm is cut off and she goes off to find it. She has her other arm smashed off by rocks during the fight with Suika, but is able to grow it back with the Box of a Hundred Medicines.

Broken Bird: Part of Kasen's Adaptational Angst Upgrade is that she tries to throw away all aspects of her life as a human and keep mostly to herself, to the point where her first scene with Yoshika has her trying to run away once the poet takes interest in her until she realizes that she won't be able to retrieve her arm without help. In fact, once Kasen realizes that she is opening up more while spending time with Yoshika, she doesn't take it too well.

Mortality Phobia
 Suikakasen (Webcomic) / int_d366883d
comment
Mortality Phobia: Yoshika's reason for wanting to become a hermit is because she is very, very scared of dying. Kasen was going to kill her initially, but has a Heel Realization once Yoshika makes this fear very clear. She's willing to believe "fairy-tales" like hermits because she's dying of a Soap Opera Disease. After being rejected by the reikon, she (wrongly) puts her trust in Seiga. She seems to have finally gotten over her fear by the end though because she dies smiling.

A rather twisted example occurs with Seiga in episode 3. At first it appears that she is crying Tears of Remorse, but then it turns out that she is crying happy tears because she finds it hilarious that Yoshika has died.

Morality Pet: Kasen wasn't exactly evil before she met Yoshika, but she was part of a group of bandits. Once Kasen realizes that this trope is in action, she attempts to kill Yoshika so that she can get rid of the last traces of her humanity. She stops once Yoshika (who's completely unaware of Kasen's intentions by this point) makes it clear how much she fears her own death and Kasen realizes how much she toyed with Yoshika's emotions.

Satellite Character: Yuugi has no real character arc of her own and mostly serves as someone for Suika and Kasen to interact with besides each other (and Yoshika for the latter). Everything about Kan Kaku in the story revolves around his relationship with Seiga, serving as her humanization.
