-
This will be sort of a guessing game.
Write a short poetic verse about a character. Whoever guesses right gets to make one themselves.
I will start off:
"Lights, colors, power. Flashy and beautiful, but rather ordinary."
-
We had a riddles thread way back when. It was fun.
This one seems to be Marisa.
-
We had a riddles thread way back when. It was fun.
This one seems to be Marisa.
Correct, da ze!
-
I'll pass on putting one up for now, so next poster can grab it.
-
In that case, I'll try another:
"Trapped in the darkness of a giant red, my sanity slips."
-
Very Flandre.
-
Haha, of course~! xD
-
If I may, I have another.
"Swirling admist a sea of wisdom, I move for no creature."
-
Yukari?
-
Totally Komachi the ever-napping.
-
Iku.
-
Wrong Wrong and Wrong.
-
Patchy.
-
Patchy.
Bingo.
-
OOOOOOOOOOOOOH! Now I get it! xD The Unmoving Library!
-
Again, someone else can take this.
-
Once again...
"The flora are my only friends. My strength is unmatched and I have no bounds."
-
Yuka.
-
Yuka.
Correct. Though why do you answer them but you don't want to contribute any of your own?
Oh well. I gotta go soon, so someone else can give it a shot.
-
"To let this passion overcome me, it is my fate to never be extinguished."
-
Probably mokou
-
Probably right.
-
"Wishing for a home,
Now a wandering vagrant.
Wisp of autumn's breath."
-
God damn it, Purvis.
I can only think of Shizuha and Kisume, but I'm pretty sure there's someone else that fits better.
-
Koishi?
-
No, trap sprung, and excellent guess but no. Koishi is close enough I might give it to you anyways due to overlap; we'll see if anyone else gets it.
-
Guessing for the hell of it, likely wrong:
Kogasa?
-
Nyet.
-
Letty?
No clue.
-
Didn't think so. You've got to explain that 'autumn's breath' line after someone gets it (if it's not totally obvious).
-
Taint Letty.
Also: It's poetic and symbolic.
-
Nue?
-
Long shot, but Kana?
-
I... /think/ I have it, if we're allowed multiple shots per riddle.
-
Nue?
Nein.
Long shot, but Kana?
Ding!
I... /think/ I have it, if we're allowed multiple shots per riddle.
I would think multiple shots are alright, as long as you don't make multiple guesses per post.
-
Yay!
Guess I have to come up with something of my own now, eh?
Well, here goes nothing:
"For years, beyond the view of its enemies,
dutifully bearing the weight of Gensokyo's defense."
-
Momiji?
-
Momiji?
Nope
-
Yukari?
-
Yukari?
Also nope.
-
Shingyoku?
-
Gonna go out on a limb and guess the Great Hakurei Barrier.
-
Shingyoku?
Bonus points for obscurity, but I'm afraid not.
Gonna go out on a limb and guess the Great Hakurei Barrier.
Now that's thinking outside the box! ^^;
I have to admit that it matches the clue pretty well, but I'll go as far as to say that the intended answer is at least animate, and would not spark any debates about whether or not it was a character.
-
The Dragon God.
-
The Dragon God.
Thematically fitting, but also no.
-
Mima
-
Ran.
-
Mima
Oh god no.
Ran.
Nope.
-
Bah, I was going to guess the Dragon or Barrier, too.
Maribel probably relies on too much speculation.
... Suika?
-
Gonna guess a probably too obvious Raymoo. (If I'm right, lulz will be had.)
-
Kotohime.
-
... Suika?
Nope.
Gonna guess a probably too obvious Raymoo. (If I'm right, lulz will be had.)
Nope.
Kotohime.
And also nope.
-
Genjii
-
Keine?
-
Is it Eirin?
-
Keine?
Nope.
Is it Eirin?
Nope.
Genjii
Correct!
The weight he was bearing was quite literal, and not figurative.
And, well, it's been quite a few years since he saw action.
-
Tempted to do something very bad. But I shall save it.
Light in the darkness;
The final toll, an ending.
Ullr's breath retreats.
Yeah bitches, have a kenning in a haiku.
-
What.
Yeah, I have absolutely no idea. The part about Ullr is even more puzzling, even after I looked it up to see what the heck it meant. I can't really describe the thought process that I went through to get this answer, but my answer is:
Byakuren.
::shrug::
-
I'm going to totally guess this wrong but... Eirin?
-
No and no.
-
For the heck of it, Suwako.
-
Nein.
-
Yuyuko?
-
Yuyuko?
Getting warmer, but no.
-
Youmu?
-
Murasa?
-
Youmu?
No, no warmer.
Murasa?
Colder.
-
Komachi?
-
Shikieki?
-
Well, this is my break up of it.
Light in the darkness - Could be meant literally but is usually a figurative speech for hope.
The final toll, an ending - Something that about signaling an end.
Ullr's breath retreating - Now I checked google for what Ullr means and apparently he has something to do with glory. So Ullr's breath retreating has something to do with....not taking glory for something? Maybe.
Hmm, from this, I have to guess....I think Byakuren too (somewhat, maybe) but I'll go with another guess since it's taken. Shou?
Warning - while you were typing 8 new replies have been posted. You may wish to review your post.
Getting warmer, but no.
Hmm, guess not Shou...I go with the sakura tree?
-
None of these.
-
Ummm... Kanako?
-
No.
-
Sounded like Yuyuko and Youmu were close, so... Youki?
-
Kikuri?
-
Layla Prismriver?
-
Konngara.
-
None of these.
Recall that one can be close in different ways.
-
Mima?
-
Yukari?
-
Nein.
Hint: Ullr and Skadi fulfilled similar roles in different geographical regions.
-
...Lily?
-
That's a little more helpful, since there's next to no useful information on the intertubes on Ullr.
So, Ullr's breath refers to winter, then? The poem is probably talking about the person who resolved the PCB incident, then.
-
...Lily?
Ding!
-
Ding!
You're a sly one, Mr. Purvis.
-
Yay!...Now I have to think of something....
Walking a long road.
The end which I cannot see.
Just leave me alone.
Edit Note: This is somewhat a interpretation of the character on my part.
-
Tsundere Parsee
-
Fanon Alice
-
Koishi.
-
Nope.
-
Mokou?
-
Yep, it's Mokou. I was thinking of her when I made that haiku.
-
Yep, it's Mokou. I was thinking of her when I made that haiku.
Ahh, I figured with the whole 'misunderstanding' motif you had with her.
Alright here goes...
"One may consider weakness to be one's greatest strength in battle."
Blargh, easy one for you all.
-
Not that easy: I thought immediately of Meiling, but that seems off for some reason.
-
Not that easy: I thought immediately of Meiling, but that seems off for some reason.
Nope. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvdf5n-zI14)
-
Imma say Satori.
-
Imma say Satori.
Nope. Don't over think this one and even then that might be considered a clue.
Sect's guess was warm.
-
Half-serious guess: Cirno? (She's weak, but she considers herself "the strongest...")
-
Gonna have to say Remilia.
-
Suika~
-
Kogasa. (She appears to have a weak special ability, surprising people, but then surprises people as the
EX-midboss
)
-
Half-serious guess: Cirno? (She's weak, but she considers herself "the strongest...")
WINRAR IS YOU.
-
"Even if I am more than a figment, none can see things through my eyes."
-
YuugenMagan?
-
YuugenMagan?
Nope. I wasn't even thinking of that, but it's a very good guess. Cold though.
(Also, I'll only be here for half an hour more today, so post your guesses soon if you want them answered semi-immediately.)
-
Koishi?
-
Koishi?
Nope again, and still cold. Hint: Don't take "eyes" too literally.
-
Nue.
-
Yukari?
-
Nue.
Yukari?
Nope and nope.
-
Yuyuko.
-
Gengetsu
-
Elly.
-
Yuyuko.
Gengetsu
Elly.
All wrong. More hintage: I've been in at least one of the fighting games.
(And this isn't just a narrowing-down, it's sort of relevant to the verse.
)
-
Reisen.
-
Reisen.
Nuh-uh.
-
The Giant Catfish.
-
The Giant Catfish.
You got it! (Explanation: Whether he actually exists or not, he's the only character in the fighting games who you can't play as.)
-
Sweet deal.
"The mystery of shadows, the epilogue of the sun
The drive of a madman, the results were none."
-
Utsuho?
Just latching on to the sun part, and she was sorta mad but had no results :3
-
Probably utsuho.
if not, perhaps patchouli (The Girl of Knowledge and Shadow)
-
Is it Flandre?
-
All wrong thus far.
-
Eirin?
-
Remilia?
-
Mima.
-
Nope.
-
Nitori?
-
You know what, I'm going to say Hisou Tensoku. If the Catfish can be involved in this, I see no reason why Hisou Tensoku can't be. ^^
-
Mokou?
-
You know what, I'm going to say Hisou Tensoku. If the Catfish can be involved in this, I see no reason why Hisou Tensoku can't be. ^^
No, but funny.
Also no to everyone else.
Hint: The mystery part is probably a clue.
-
Kotohime?
-
Kanako?
Made a circle in my head; so I'm getting them first.
-
No. And in Spanish: No.
-
Now to try... ...
Suwako.
-
You're just guessing now, aren't you?
More hint: The Epilogue of the Sun is a large indication of perhaps not the character (due to the mystery), but things linked to the character.
-
I wasn't guessing; I just think a lot about these things and try everything connected to my original idea. ^^
Right now, my head keeps saying Rumia. (I'm thinking of other people who it could be now.)
[EDIT: Damn it! Now I really have a strong feeling who it could be, but it's too late now. Damn waiting! >< ]
-
Well no then. Guess away~
-
Rinnosuke?
-
Last one since no one else is posting and it's unfair for me to keep doing so... Sorry to everyone else who is playing; I get carried away from time to time. :ohdear:
[Warning; I was expecting that during the typing there.]
Koishi.
-
Well, don't worry Katachi: You're wrong anyway.
And I don't get how you came up with Kourin in that, but no.
-
That was misreading on my part...Kaguya?
-
Ok, I've waited long enough; I'm posting again after all that thinking...
Meiling.
-
No and no.
I'll tell you that she's somewhat of a more obscure character.
-
Sunny Milk?
-
Isami Asama?
-
Sunny Milk?
No.
Isami Asama?
Maybe a little less obscure, I don't even know who or what that is.
-
Ooh, ooh! Is it Maribel?
Also,
Maybe a little less obscure, I don't even know who or what that is.
http://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Uwabami_Breakers#Character (http://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Uwabami_Breakers#Character)
-
Obviously, it's Ruukuto.
The mystery of shadows refers to the mysterious way that she is both acquired, then lost.
the epilogue of the sun powered by nuclear fusion, that which is the power that will lead stars to their inevitable demise.
The drive of a madman the robot maid was created (or gifted, not too sure) to Reimu by Yumemi Okazaki, who is regarded by her peers as being mad or insane.
the results were none and this is where I stop giving a shit about whether or not I'm right or not.

No, but very creative.
And no on Maribel as well.
-
Is it Keine?
-
No.
Another hint: The first line deals with the conditions of which this character has been seen, the second with how the character acts. (I feel like I'm giving away too much now.)
-
The sun god Utsuho ate?
-
A random fairy from the Extra stage of Subterranean Animism.
-
No and no.
The character has a name at least.
-
Yuka.
-
Gonna go with Mystia.
-
No and No.
I said more obscure character, people.
-
Probably not obscure enough, but Rumia?
-
byakuren?
-
Lily Black?
-
I mentioned Rumia on the previous page, Himiko.
And I'm going to say Meira.
-
The Five Magic Stones.
-
The first line peobably has something to do with the night, sunset or the moon. The second one implies the person is a bit mad...or something to do with madness. So....
Toyohime? Yorihime? Reisen II?
Just giving my three shots there.
-
And I'm going to say Meira.
There's our winner.
Sorry, but I was asleep.
-
I'll not be forgetting Meira for a while now. XD
______________________________________
To many, I am hated.
To many, I am loved.
The only difference, you may say,
is that love can never 'talk.'
Who am I?
-
Satori.
-
Needed a nice easy one after that. ^^
GOOD JOB! XD
-
Shitty poem, ho!
Rabble of the forest
Enduring no hardship
Ignoring sisters' cries
Secluding self in the forest
Even as regret rises, but can
Never return home again
-
Reisen
-
Ah, you caught it, didn't you?
EDIT: That means "correct".
-
Ah, you caught it, didn't you?
EDIT: That means "correct".
"Never return home again" meant it had to be one of the escapees of the moon which was a dead giveaway.
Anyways,
With strength and power,
With grace and care,
This is someone who you dare not mess with.
-
That last line supposed to have the broken grammars?
Also Sakuya.
-
YUUGI
-
That last line supposed to have the broken grammars?
My grammar sux.
YUUGI
YESH! CORRECT!
-
Ironically, I guessed it because of the mistake?"someone who dare not mess with" seemed like a reference to "her sake NOT EVEN DROP."
Hmm, let's see...not sure how poetic this is, but
Two-tenths is better than no-tenths. A certain someone left her worse off.
-
"Never return home again" meant it had to be one of the escapees of the moon which was a dead giveaway.
Fair enough, but that wasn't the REAL giveaway. Look at the first letters of each line.
Anyways, I don't have a single clue about yours, Whatthe.
-
Hmm...Alice?
-
My train of thought is a little weird on this one, but Shinki?
-
i have no idea...
chen?!
-
Hmm...Alice?
My train of thought is a little weird on this one, but Shinki?
i have no idea...
chen?!
Nope, nope and nope. Hint: The two-tenths is equivalent to the fraction relevant to the character.
-
Reimu?
-
Reimu?
Nuh-uh. Another hint: She's a very minor character.
-
Tokiko?
-
Hm... Meira perhaps?
-
Sara.
-
Sara.
Nope.
Hm... Meira perhaps?
Nope.
Tokiko?
Yep! (two-tenths = three-fifteenths?the three books Reimu took from her were from a set of 15)
-
Yay, I finally got something~
Poetry isn't my strong point, but let's try this anyway.
Deftly silencing enemies
While staying silent herself
You thought fighting her would be more fun
-
Sakuya?
-
Sakuya?
Wrong.
-
Medicine Melancholy.
-
1. Youmu
2. Yorihime
3. Momiji
-
Medicine Melancholy.
Wrong.
1. Youmu
2. Yorihime
3. Momiji
All wrong, although those last three are pretty good.
Should I wait a little longer before giving out a hint?
-
Hm...defeating enemies while staying silent?
Er...Eirin?
-
Koakuma.
-
Hm...defeating enemies while staying silent?
Er...Eirin?
Koakuma.
Both wrong, hint time!
The characters Bitmap and Tewi guessed...what do they all have in common?
-
Meira
-
Yumeko!
-
Yumeko!
I keep forgetting the PC-98 characters xD
-
Yumeko!
Meira
Wrong, but you're both on the right track.
Do you want another hint?
-
Wait, it wasn't those guys? Then...er....Mokou?
-
Sariel?
-
Is it Sariel? I'm running out.
-
To be fair, I think that one was a little to wild a guess.
I'll throw in Elly as a more sensible guess. :3
-
Wait, it wasn't those guys? Then...er....Mokou?
Wrong.
Sariel?
Is it Sariel? I'm running out.
Wrong but warm.
To be fair, I think that one was a little to wild a guess.
I'll throw in Elly as a more sensible guess. :3
Wrong.
Hint: No dialogue
-
Hmm...Konngara?
-
Uhhhhhhhhh...
Kikuri?
-
Uhhhhhhhhh...
Kikuri?
Wrong.
Hmm...Konngara?
Yes!
-
Wow, haha. Alright then! Here's mine:
"A desire to bring life to the lifeless. Inside are the wonders of dreams."
-
Hmm...potentially Yuyuko?
-
Hmm...potentially Yuyuko?
Nope.
-
Hmm...potentially Yuyuko?
Good word choice. :V
And I'd take a stab, but I've already known the answer to this one so yeah.
-
Rin?
-
Yuuka?
-
No and no.
-
Yumemi
-
Yumemi
Nuh-uh.
-
Alice.
-
Alice.
We have a winner!
-
Sorry I took so long; too busy reading through the 'Ask Yuyuko' thing...
I love doing these; so here we go...
_________________________________
To one I have fought and to one I have taught.
To memories now gone, I promise, I'll linger on.
-
Too obvious, but Keine?
Youki?
-
Nope to Keine.
And no to Youki, though I see where you were coming from with that one. ^^
-
Mima?
-
Yuyuko. (mostly due to the last line.)
-
DING DING!
Mima is the right answer. ^^
-
Yeah, I wasn't sure about the fought part of it but then I remember PoDD.
Anyway, here's mine:
To exist yet not exist
To only be known by people not of my world
To be found only by mere curiosity
Tis a sad life I do not live
-
Gengetsu?
-
Nope but it does fit some of it but not really all of it to me.
-
Kaguyers.
-
Nope.
-
Hrm... Not sure it fits all the way, but Kana? "To exist and yet not exist"
-
Satsuki Rin?
-
Yep, it's Rin Satsuki. She's known to us but not to the world she was meant for and she's only known to us by what I think was just curiosity of some guy.
Sad isn't it?
-
Poor Rin D:
Everyone was together
Yet she was always, always alone
Everyone had long since forgotten about her
-
Medicine Melancholy?
-
Parsee.
-
Kogasa.
-
Medicine Melancholy?
No
Parsee.
No, but now that I look back, I could have used it for her.
Kogasa.
No
-
The majority of the PC-98 characters?
-
The majority of the PC-98 characters?
It's only one character...
Should I give a hint?
-
Suika
-
Orange.
-
Blind guess. Going with Keine.
-
Suika
Yes!
-
Everyone was together...
Yeah, that makes sense.
-
Okay, I'll keep the game moving.
"Driven to the brink of Hell
Taken to the heart of Hades
Flames devour everything
And what takes flight is pure chaos
Overwhelming the land"
-
Okuu?
-
Okuu?
BAH! I gotta make them harder. But yeah you got it.
-
So, yeah.
A friend who has spent
Years helping those needing none
Altruisticly
-
Aya,
-
Um...Byakuren?
-
Marisa :getdown:
-
So, yeah.
A friend who has spent
Y ears helping those needing none
A ltruisticly
I'm pretty sure. :V
-
But no one loves Aya... at all
-
ummm
Eirin
-
Hanged got it :3
It's the same trick I pulled with that Reisen one, too, only the prose was too obvious for that one.
-
"Their eyes never blink,
Their minds never think.
Their arms never bend,
Yet they're my only friend."
-
Whaa? What happened to my turn? :(
Uhhh, Alice's dolls?
-
You get it now, and I've been kinda out of the loop, sorry about that.
But yeah, you got it right. It wasy easy.
-
Ahh, skip me.
I was planning on doing something about benevolence and France, but nevermind.
Now to think of another one in the meantime.
-
Okay, super duper easy one that Hanged isn't allowed to answer.
"She didn't drink the Elixir, for she cannot."
EDIT: Okay, I guess Hanged can answer, if Hanged has another one in mind now.
-
Tewi
-
No.
-
Marisa.
-
Marisa.
No. Also, I just realized that I misspelled "elixir".
-
Sakuya?
-
No. Hint:
what is the Elixir, and why would someone not be able to drink it?
-
Ooooooooooooh!
YuugenMagen.
-
Who? I mean, no.
I will admit, though, that you are on the right track.
-
Kikuri?
-
No, still on the right track.
-
Evil Eye Sigma.
-
Try a more recent character. On the right track, just wrong system.
-
Hourai. :3
-
Wahaha. Right.
In case you were wondering, Hourai shares her name with the Elixir, and she can't drink it 'cause she has no mouth (or digestive organs, for that matter)
.
-
I wanted to jump in earlier, but I wanted to give others a chance.
Also, I noticed how you refered to me as "Hanged" so you wouldn't tip anyone off.
OK.
I live alone, save for my hanging friend.
I can hurt or help.
Poofy.
That's some poem right thar. :3
-
Yamame.
-
It was the poofy huh?
Anywaze, yeah.
-
It was the poofy.
I'll dice 'em all up,
Bitches got nothing on me!
Strange typhoon season.
-
Tenshi.
-
I was wondering if someone could get a speed record for that one.
-
Yay :V
In the darkness of night,
Someone cries out.
In beckoning?
Warning?
Fear?
She will redirect you to a wolf soon.
-
In the dark of the night, terror will find her!
Uh... let's go with Mystia.
-
In the dark of the night, terror will find her!
Uh... let's go with Mystia.
Right!
When I wrote the riddle, I was thinking of the story of the night sparrow.
-
Aw, damn it, now I have to think of a poem. And try to not have a gimmick like the last three I've done. Which I might have failed at.
Sometimes I think of songs.
Of the power that binds you and me
Of an arcane land within a dream.
Where they sail on stars, waiting to die
With covens dancing around on high.
Our binding power, full of piercing light
Will guide us that night of our eastern flight.
Sometimes I think of songs.
-
Parsee.
-
Marisa?
-
Renko
-
Hourai's got it again.
In case you were wondering, the lines were formed by the titles of Marisa's theme songs (except the Fairy Wars one).
-
Oh boy, ummmm, let's see.
Head always in the clouds
My heart is set on my goal
Beware my extra eye
-
Koishi
-
Nope
-
Satori.
-
Rika.
-
Nope and no.
Traps sprung. :3
-
Clever girl.
Um, let's go with Evil Eye Sigma, for the lulz.
-
Girl? ???
And no.
-
I would say Ichirin but it says eye and not eyes....But why not.
-
And I would say no.
-
Girl? ???
C'mon, Jurassic Park!
-
No, it's not Jurassic Park either. :3
Dinosaur Touhou characters? That'd be cool though.
-
Parsee.
-
A German Cirno would be a....
Nein.
-
Okuu!
-
No, but nice creativity.
-
Gonna be random and toss in Kogasa.
Her umbrella has an eye too.
-
HEYYYOOOO!
YOU ARE CORRECT SIR!
If you know what that's from, you're awesome.
-
It's simple, her stage theme is called "The Sealed Cloud Route".
You said her head was always in the clouds.
And her life's reason is to scare/surprise people, that's the dream she held that you mentioned.
And the "Beware my extra eye" part is a reference to the fact that it's been said that she can see through it as well as her own two eyes.
Sadly, I'm no good at devising riddles, I can only solve them. :ohdear:
-
No, it's not Jurassic Park either. :3
Dinosaur Touhou characters? That'd be cool though.
Touhou 13 will have dinosaur youkai in fur bikinis, CALLING IT NOW. :yumemi:
... Just why is that emote called "Yumemi"...?
-
Because that is Ruro's response to Yumemi, and she feels it should be yours as well.
-
Maybe I can think one up.
A mysterious figure
Just passing by
With an ulterior motive or not?
Here or there?
Or just anywhere?
Difficult to read the thoughts
But that is the work of the mastermind
-
I'd say Koishi but it's most likely Yukari.
-
I'd say Koishi but it's most likely Yukari.
Daww...yeah it was Yukari >_O I really gotta think up a harder one.
-
"I was once controlled and blinded by revenge.
My heart was taken by the queen, and I became a servant
. Time passed, and I have not changed.
Only that I am the queen, and my servants don't have a will"
-
Alice, I would imagine.
-
Damn, you are right
-
I got one:
A blade that does not kill
Leading down the path that changes
Guiding wanderers beyond
-
...Mokou? It's all I can think of
-
...Mokou? It's all I can think of
Nope xD
-
I'll just copy-paste it:
"if not, I had a feeling that it was Shikieiki, but it's obviously not... "
-
Komachi. She carries a scythe that she doesn't use to kill, a river is fluid, and always changing, and, of course, she leads souls to the afterlife.
-
Komachi. She carries a scythe that she doesn't use to kill, a river is fluid, and always changing, and, of course, she leads souls to the afterlife.
WE HAVE A WINNER, DA ZE!
To clarify, she's not supposed to reap souls unless its necessary and the Sanzu River's length changes depending on the soul she is ferrying.
-
Here we go
3 x 7 = 23
-
......Isn't this supposed to be poems?
-
Probably. Consider that a bonus question.
What was once selfish became selfless
And punishment was easier to address
-
Medicine
-
Nope.
-
Tenshi?
-
I'mmaking the assumption that eveyone's trying to answer both questions simultaneously, so no and no.
-
For the numbered one, Rinnosuke?
For the other one, Yuyuko?
-
No and no. So, clue time.
For the mathematical one: the equation is correct
.
For the poem: ... Actually, I'm surprised people are having a hard time with this one. It's pretty damned literal.
-
Shikieiki. Punishment and stuff.
EDIT;; Math one... Well... Sanae?
-
No on Shikieiki,
I think I see what the problem is. If it helps, ignore the word "address"
. And I'm kind of curious on how you got Sanae for the math riddle.
-
Alice?
Sanae, 3 = San in japanese.
-
Nope. And that was an interesting answer, but no.
-
Byakuren.
What was once selfish became selfless
When her brother died, she became afraid of death, and wanted to keep her youth. A pretty selfish act.
Then, she started helping youkai and humans.
-
Theeeeere we go. But not the correct answer for the math one.
-
It's confusing me greatly.
greatly.
Cirno? If this was real math, the 7 should be replaced by a 9 in order to be correct.
-
Sigh.
You're correct. For all of the wrong reasons, but yes, Cirno is the correct answer.
-
Whoooo~
...Wait, that means I gotta think of a poem? Uhhh...
Protecting the clouds
Colored, strong.
Spin, spin, spin.
-
I would say Hina but that seems too obvious, so Iku?
-
Both are wrong.
-
Kedama.
-
EVEN IN YOUR POEMS, F.O.E-- I mean, what, no.
Hint; It's pretty much all about names.
-
Ichirin?
-
Nope.
EDIT;; Hint; The clouds refer to a small group of people.
-
The number thing had to do with base-9 cause 3x7 does equal 23 in base-9 and well, Cirno thinks in nines :p
Anyway, for the current poem, is it Meiling?
-
Nyet.
-
Ran?
-
We have a winner!
-
Figured as much.
I've watched you grow, that's what some say.
I gave you 'power', though still, you've not paid.
Who am I?
-
Parsee.
-
Kanako?
-
Nope to both. ^^
-
Yuuka?
-
No. :3
-
Rinnosuke!
-
Good Job Himiko; you can go on to the next stage now! XD
-
I remembered the mini-Hakkero.
Can't leave
ashes, ashes, fall down
-
Flandre
-
Flandre
Wrong
-
Utsuho?
-
Utsuho?
Wrong
-
Totally out there, but... Shizuha? :derp:
-
Totally out there, but... Shizuha? :derp:
No :derp:
-
Not much to go on here, but I'll say...Kaguya.
-
Not much to go on here, but I'll say...Kaguya.
Wrong
I wonder if I was too vague this time?
-
Kanako?
-
Shinki?
-
Shinki?
Kanako?
Both wrong
-
Medicine?
-
Medicine?
Wrong, but good guess.
Hint: can't leave --> bound to a single location
-
Satori?
-
Parsee?
-
Saigyo Ayakashi.
-
Unnamed Plant Youkai
-
Parsee?
Correct!
-
Damn I'm good. I kinda guessed there too.
Lessseeee....
"I have stayed with you always
Through forests and hallways
To help you defeat foes
And I've watched you grow
You've kept me close
And yet you forget me the most.
What's up with that?
Would you rather I'm a cat?"
Might be too easy.
-
Genjii?
-
No, but I see where you got this from.
-
The yin yang orb?
-
Myon?
-
The yin yang orb?
Eh, I knew it was too easy. Correct.
-
I've already posted like three riddles, someone else can take this.
-
I'll take a stab at it
Silent Silent as a Ghost
Who's the one who loves you most?
Who is this?
-
KOISHI~
-
Parsee.
-
both are wrong~
-
Ghost Nappa Um... Mima. We haven't heard from her in a while.
-
Yuyuko.
-
Ghost Nappa Um... Mima. We haven't heard from her in a while.
Yep, Mima, I was referring too how Mima trained Marisa and watched her go along to solve the incidents.
-
Fight hard, party harder!
The strongest only deserve the strong!
The great feast is below!
-
Yuugi.
-
Probably is Yuugi, but I'll guess an obligitory Suika just in case.
-
Yuugi.
Yup. xD
-
From here, I shall wait...
Wait for the time that one desires...
A time that shall twist my destiny once more...
From here, I shall wait...
Almost alone...
-
Sakuya?
-
Wrong answer!
(Savory goes Pichuu~n)
-
Byakuren.
-
(AMZ goes Pichuu~n)
Sorry.
-
Yaaay, I got skipped.
Flandre.
-
You got skipped? I didn't even know you had one before me; I'm sorry. ><
And also...
(Pichuu~n)
No.
-
suwako
-
Wrong. ^^
(Pichuu~n)
-
Youmu.
-
Sorry.
(Pichuu~n)
-
Alice?
-
Nope.
Hint time!
[Everyone mentioned so far is relevant.]
-
Shinki?
-
And...
(pichuu~n)
Nope
-
Nope.
Hint time!
[Everyone mentioned so far is relevant.]
That's a terrible clue: the only thing they have in common is that they're female. Thus, I'm going to assume that you're trying to throw everyone off, and say that it's Rinnosuke.
-
Maybe I should re-word it then...
[Everyone mentioned so far have met this person in some way.]
And no.
-
Then the only possible answer is Reimu.
-
And that's why I never give out hints. :3
-
She sits there, unseen
Dreaming of fame and power
Yet when she grasped them
Ruin came right behind
Not pointed at her this time
But instead, her friends.
-
Kanako?
-
Utsuho?
-
Not Kanako or Okuu, sorry.
-
Byakuren~!
-
Not Byakuren either, though that does fit a bit better.
-
Yuyuko?
-
Kaguya maybe?
-
Neither of the princesses.
Hint one: The last few lines are meant to refer to a specific event, but there's a more well-known incident with the girls in question it could also apply to as well.
-
Flandre?
-
Parsee.
-
Yukari? Or Reisen?
-
Not any of those. Perhaps it's time for another clue.
Hint two: In her case, "unseen" is 100% literal. But there are exceptions...
-
Flandre?
-
Koishi?
-
Flandre?
Already said it wasn't Flan.
Koishi?
On the right track with that clue, but it's not Koishi.
-
Nue?
-
Nue was going to be my next guess...
So I'll say Nitori instead.
-
Nue?
Nue was going to be my next guess...
So I'll say Nitori instead.
Not one of these two, but you've definitely got the right idea with Nitori.
-
I've probably gone right off it now, but if Nitori was the right idea...
Sunny Milk.
-
There we go. Sunny is the one who dreams of making an incident of herself after all!
The grasp and the ruin? Well, it could be the Fairy War which she thought up. Especially on certain routes. But I was thinking of Bright 24. She straight-up bounced a barrage from the overlord of Gensokyo...which just led to the immediate dispatching of the other two.
Yeah, I was being deliberately overdramatic with a very minor event. You may now proceed to smack me around for a while.
-
I'm so glad I've read all of that manga. Wouldn't have said Sunny otherwise.
However, I won't be around for a couple of days, so I'll have to pass on my turn. :ohdear:
-
I got this.
You!
I wanna take you to a gay bar,
I wanna take you to a gay bar,
I wanna take you to a gay bar, gay bar, gay bar.
Let's start a war, start a nuclear war,
At the gay bar, gay bar, gay bar.
Wow! (Shout out loud)
At the gay bar.
Now tell me do ya, a do ya have any money?
I wanna spend all your money,
At the gay bar, gay bar, gay bar.
[Pause]
I've got something to put in you,
I've got something to put in you,
I've got something to put in you,
At the gay bar, gay bar, gay bar.
Wow! (Shout out loud)
You're a superstar, at the gay bar.
You're a superstar, at the gay bar.
Yeah! you're a superstar, at the gay bar.
You're a superstar, at the gay bar.
Superstar.
Super, super, superstar
-
Wat?
-
Wat?
Not a fan character.
-
MANNOSUKE Oh wait, not a fan character...
Kanako? (She gave Utsuho nuclear power by putting the Yatagarasu in her, and while Gensokyo has not been shown to have any gay bars, the outside world does have them, and Kanako's from the outside world.)
-
Look at Whatthe, solvin' riddles like a boss.
-
This new style could prove quite interesting.
Friends are there
To help you get started
To give you a push on your way
Friends are there
To turn you around
Get your feet on the ground
For a brand new day
They'll pick you up when you're down
Help you swallow your pride
When something inside's
Got to break on through to the other side
Friends are someone you can open up to
When you feel like you're ready to flip
When you've got the world on your shoulders
Friends are there to give you a tip
Friends are there when you need them
They're even there when you don't
For a walk in the park
Or a shot in the dark
Friends are there
I don't care
But friends will care for you
-
Parsee.
-
Marisa or Suika.
-
All wrong, though I can see where you got Parsee from.
Hint: This one isn't as well-matched as Purvis' was.
-
What the heck does that mean?
-
What the heck does that mean?
It means that unlike Purvis' poem, one or more lines of mine do not fit the character.
More Specific Hint: "I don't care" is the most unfitting line, so don't base your guesses on that one.
-
Yuugi or Reimu?
-
Nope. Another Hint:
"Friends" actually refers to the only friend the character is known to have.
-
Hmm....
Alice
Yamame
Cirno
-
Not any of those.
-
Hm...Mokou?
-
Nope. Hint:
It's one of the more obscure characters.
-
Yumemi
-
Nuh-uh. Another hint:
It isn't anyone from the PC-98 games.
-
Renko or Maribel?
-
Renko or Maribel?
Yes, it's Maribel!
-
You ask me, what do I see?
My fantasy is all around me!
i suck at poetry...
-
That's the second time that I got passed up....
Anyway, Yumemi?
-
Yukari?
-
I'm gonna have my first guess as Reimu, because of that Fantasy Seal spell card.
-
Fanon Sakuya
-
Yuka.
-
none of them! keep guessing.
-
Okuu?
-
Parsee.
-
Shinki
-
Alice?
-
None, but shinki is close.
PC98
-
Kotohime is my only answer.
-
Sariel??
-
no
who lives in her own fantasy world???????
-
Gengetsu?
-
Mugetsu?
-
yeah, any of them counts~
so problem's solved.
-
Well, no one posted anything for hours and I missed two of my turns, so why not? *shrug*
I wear the crown of a king
But all I did was play second fiddle,
Such wonder did I bring
Yet forgotten in the pages of time
-
Tewi?
-
This is going to be a guess.
Prismriver Sisters?
-
Is it Suwako?
-
No to all.
-
Is there a limit to how much we can guess for each riddle?
-
That sounds like... Shinki.
-
No.
Also to Kyo, as long as you don't spam, there is no limit to how much you can guess I think.
-
The only character I can think of for that riddle is Akyu, but I get a feeling that it is wrong.
-
And your feeling is right.
Here's some hints:
One of the line is meaning it literally.
Another line makes a really vague connection to a reference of a character.
And It is definitely one of the more obscure characters.
-
Rin Satsuki
-
No, I already did her.
-
Suwako or Kanako Wait those aren't obscure...
-
Myouren?
-
Nope.
Another hint and a big one at that:
This character has no name
-
Layla Prisimriver?
-
No..
Maybe I chose someone too obscure...
-
Namazu
or the Unnamed Giant Catfish.
That'll be the last guess I'll be making during this riddle.
-
Daiyousei?
-
Nope.
Okay, here last big hint I'll give.
This character doesn't even have a fan name and is in PC-98 in the same game as Miss Wonderland(This is the vague connection between the character and the poem)
-
Nameless Midboss Card.
-
If your saying the extra stage midboss of Mystic Square then yes, that is correct.
Maybe next time I should choose someone less obscure...
-
Ha... Ha...
Where did you come from again?
...You don't remember, either?
-
*insert insanely long "uhh..." here*
Uhh... Yuka?
-
Nope.
-
Kanako or Suwako or Sanae
-
No and no and no.
-
Yuyuko?
-
Nuh-uh. Hint:
If you're interpreting the first line as "Hakugyokurou," you're thinking about it in almost the right way. But it isn't "Hakugyokurou."
-
Anyone making multiple guesses should be disqualified. Otherwise you might as well just post up the character list every time.
Also: Rumia.
-
Anyone making multiple guesses should be disqualified. Otherwise you might as well just post up the character list every time.
Also: Rumia.
Sure, but I'll allow pre-hint guessers one more guess per hint. For example, Kaisou Hisakata, Demonbman & Robotic Doll.S can guess one more time each since I gave a hint after they guessed, but you can't guess again unless I give another hint.
Also, not Rumia.
-
Hm...Okuu?
-
No to Okuu too.
-
Actually I was interpreting the first line as panting.
Hmm...I'm gonna take a wild guess and say....Komachi?
-
Parsee.
-
Uhh...never mind about the one-guess rule, then? I guess...
Anyways, not Komachi or Parsee. Hint: The character has appeared in only one of the non-decimalled games.
-
Does PC-98 count too? And is it me or does that hint not help much at all?
Anyway...lemme try again...
Letty Whiterock?
-
Does PC-98 count too? And is it me or does that hint not help much at all?
Anyway...lemme try again...
Letty Whiterock?
It counts too, yes.
And not Letty.
-
It counts too, yes.
Yeah, that hint doesn't help. =_=
Um...Yumemi?
-
Uhh...never mind about the one-guess rule, then? I guess...
I meant one per post, holmes. So people can't name fifty characters at once and try to get it via casting a wide net before anyone else can.
-
I meant one per post, holmes. So people can't name fifty characters at once and try to get it via casting a wide net before anyone else can.
Actually it seems those who "multi-vote" only guess three at once.
-
I meant one per post, holmes. So people can't name fifty characters at once and try to get it via casting a wide net before anyone else can.
Oh :derp: Okay, yeah, definitely agreeing with that.
Yeah, that hint doesn't help. =_=
Um...Yumemi?
Not Yumemi either.
Possibly big hint: The character has at least one pet.
-
Ellen?
-
Ellen?
You got it!
(The "Ha..." was "Hatarakimono," the manga Ellen's from.)
-
(The "Ha..." was "Hatarakimono," the manga Ellen's from.)
Wow I would have never guessed that. Okay, my turn!
The despair of the dark abyss
The nothingness that creates
The winged demon that dreams
The void from which all is formed
An endless world of black
-
I would assume that the whole poem is talking about darkness. :V
Rumia.
-
Nope.
-
Sariel?
-
Nope.
-
Mugetsu?
-
Nope.
-
Gengetsu? :V
I can never remember who is who.
-
Hint:
This character has one essential thing in common with the three characters that were just guessed.
-
I'm going back to my original assumption: Mima?
-
DAMN BEATING ME TO POSTS!
I'll say Yuuka then; just in case.
-
Nope, but warm.
-
Shinki?
-
Shinki?
Yes! The poem refers to Makai, Shinki and her powers.
Also, the thing they had in common was being PC-98 characters. Almost everyone was close to it. Great job!
-
I'm pretty sure that's the 2nd time I've won one with Shinki. ^^

Shiki.

The Yama has judged you to be correct. ^^
(I like doing easy ones. :P )
-
lol, and I was half joking.
Pride of a lion
Strength of a bear
Leader to many
But like a child, scared.
-
Remilia ...?
-
Damn, too easy. I'm not good at this lol.
-
I possess weapons aplenty
The power to stop the flow
A dubious past and many flaws
That no one will ever know
-
Sakuya.
-
Sakuya.
"No way! I don't believe it!"
You got it, dood! :P Just as planned.
-
I think Mary The Magician got skipped.
-
I think Mary The Magician got skipped.
Oh, you're right. Next time I talk to her, I'll tell her that's it her turn. But for now, you try one.
-
Hmm...not sure how good this one is, but:
You'd do well not to kick me.
-
The Soccer Ball in Touhou Soccer xD
-
:]
Wrong though.
-
I know. That just popped in my head xD
Hmm...Wriggle?
-
Not Wriggle.
-
Yuka? >_O i can't think of anything.
-
Not her either.
Hint: The character has something in common with every guess so far (except the Soccer Ball).
-
Er...Tenshi?
-
Nope.
-
Hmm....Hina?
-
Not Hina either.
-
Kisume? Or Sanae?
-
Yes, it's Kisume! Yay for lame "well" and "kicking the bucket" puns.
-
Yes, it's Kisume! Yay for lame "well" and "kicking the bucket" puns.
Oh wow. I was gonna say Kisume at first but I didn't know if I was going to be right. Anyway, it's Mary's turn.
-
Well, okay...
This one's easy...
"Fake magical weapon,
let's head north,
so we can collect more data,
about the place magic is born"
-
Chiyuri?
-
Yup!
I owed it to that character, she's one of the best PC-98 characters (to me)...
-
I'll pass to Savory, since he won the one before your one.
(Plus I got nothing.)
-
Illnesses and ails when all else fails
Poison dances and my prey becomes a meal
But...I just want to have fun!
-
Yamame?
-
Haha, yup! xD
-
I torture the protector
Taunt her all day
Only she knows my past
no others may
-
Sercan, shouldn't you at least wait for Mary to go, or pass, before posting? It's rather rude.
I can't really think of anything, so I'll go with Iku.
-
Sakuya or Tenshi
-
sorry, sect!
i didnt know that...
so yeah, skip my poem, mary may write it.
-
sorry, sect!
i didnt know that...
so yeah, skip my poem, mary may write it.
Actually, Mary was happy you did that. She couldn't think of a new poem.
-
could have said it before then. ugh. oh well keep guessing then!
-
Mima
-
Mima
damn you got it right. i guess the "taunt" did it.
-
This one might be tricky.
A second shadow
Forever tagging along
Watching silently
-
Youmu.
-
Youmu.
Very, very close.
-
Yuyuko?
-
Not Yuyuko.
-
Myon.
-
Myon.
Correct!
-
Bound and yet unbound,
yielded to the greater cause;
Winter's gate demured.
-
Shizuha?
-
Letty?
-
Yuyuko?
-
Oh right, I'm up.
None of those.
-
Any one of the Prisimriver Sisters?
-
No multiguessing >=|
Also no.
-
Youmu?
-
No. But your figurativeness is kinda right direction in one sense.
-
Please don't tell me it's Parsee.
-
Okay I won't. Because it's not.
-
Lily?
-
Nyet.
-
Cirno?
-
Getting colder.
Ha, I kill me!
-
Are gates like barriers? Because it's why I'm thinking Yukari.
-
Not in this sense, but you're looking at the right part to be extremely poetic with it.
Keep try!
-
Byakuren?
-
No.
-
Reimu?
-
Still no.
One of the last three was going in the right direction.
-
Suika?
-
No sir.
-
Be it an Alice?
-
No.
Hint: The last line is particularly metaphoric
-
Shinki?
-
No.
-
Didn't think that would work a 3rd time. :3
Yuuka?
-
Nein.
-
Ran?
-
Chen?
-
Nope
-
Rumia?
-
No.
Hint 2: Second line is fairly direct.
-
Remilia?
-
No. Interesting guess, but what about her involves a higher cause?
-
No. Interesting guess, but what about her involves a higher cause?
The rest of Gensokyo not wanting scarlet mist all over the place.
-
Komachi?
-
No. But, she does fit the criteria, doesn't she? Alas =[
-
Hmm........ Shikieiki...?
-
No.
-
Yuugi?
-
No.
-
Ummmmmm...Utsuho?
-
Shou?
-
Tenshi?
-
None of the above, one is very close.
-
Iku?
-
MURASA!
-
MURASA!
Ding!
-
I gotta go soon, so someone else can take this one.
-
I remember someone saying something about missing their turn a few pages back, so if that person is around, I think it should be fair to give it to him/her.
If not, I don't mind since I got a 7 post warning beforehand. Just my luck huh. ::)
-
AH! I just went back and checked and noticed it has been taken care of. In which case, excuse the double post; here we go...
Who needs power? Who needs speed?
Who needs wit? Who needs fate?
For what I have is more than that...
Double, in fact. And very special.
-
Yuuka?
-
Nope. Nice try though. :3
-
Yukari?
-
N~o~p~e. ^^
-
This may be insane over-analysis, but...
Power - Marisa
Speed - Aya
Fate - Remilia
Wit - Yukari
So, I'm gonna guess Renko.
-
I feel bad for saying no to that; that was brilliant.
Hint: Special can be something close to one. Double can also range from more than just copies or objects.
-
Flan? hurrhurr
-
Nope. Play again? :3
-
Alice Margatroid?
-
Sorry; no dolls today. :ohdear: Keep trying.
-
Yomou?
-
Tewi
-
Sorry, your clue is in another location.
In fact, that is the next hint: out of your guesses so far, no one from 'there' has been mentioned yet.
-
Shinki?
-
Nope. Wrong place too :3
-
Shikieiki?
-
Did I really make it that hard?
Nope, no lecture today.
-
I'm never good in riddles, and my lack of Touhou character knowledge, it makes it even harder for me.
When you said that nobody has mentioned 'there,' I was threw off and thought of was those two, because of 'who needs'
-
Koishiii?
-
It's ok Kyo; everyone is like that at some point.
And no to Koishi; although she has been the closest guess out of everyone so far.
Hint: by that I mean... think about where she has been seen.
-
Satori?
-
No; not Satori.
-
Orin?!
-
Sanae?
-
Parsee.
-
Utsuho, perhaps?
-
We got there in the end.
The abilities mentioned are nothing compared to the wish of miracles.
To have a God is one thing; to have two is to double.
So yes, the answer is Sanae. ^^
Well done, Whatthe. You can have your turn back. :derp:
-
Okay, this one might not be very good, but:
Thinking as she writes
Elephant nine wondering
"How long will it be?"
-
Akyuu?
-
Akyuu?
Yeah, that's it. ("An elephant never forgets")
-
Power over-whelming.
Strategies out the window!
All that matters is one thing...
This long-forgotten place.
-
Power over-whelming, Strategies out the window -> Marisa?
-
Nope; you wa sparked!
Continue?
-
Yuuka?
-
Fertilizer is you.
Guess again. ^^
-
Gonna go out on a limb and say Mima.
-
Yuugi?
-
Hanzo: You have vanished from the sight of your fans. Try again.
Himiko: You got knocked the f*** out. Continue?
HINT: The first line is the truth. Yuugi is on the right lines however.
-
Hm...Suika?
-
Over-whelming...
Parsee?
-
Aoshi: drunk! you Sukia got sooooooo :derp:
Himiko: You see Suika looks good as a miko... Jealous.
Smile again?
-
Konngara?
(Score one for Cpt. O if this is right)
-
Sorry, back into history you go.
Take another turn.
-
Shinki?
-
Keine
-
Um....Utsuho?

Savory blasts everyone away with the right answer.
Good job. ^^
-
WAH?! I was just guessing? xD
Er...okay, I'll give an easy one:
Now you see me, now you don't!
A genius at the mountain appears...or disappears.
-
Nitori
-
Gah?! A human!
Yup, you got it. :D
-
This friendly face, framed with lace, watches a place and best be heeded lest you vanish without a trace.
-
Yuyuko?
-
No.
-
Kogasa, or Kogasa's umbrella?
-
Two for the price of one, but no.
-
Err, Yukari?
-
Nein.
-
Shiekikei(?)
-
Nyet.
-
Luize?
-
Nyet.
-
Keine?
-
Medicine.
-
Hina?
-
Hina?
Ding!
-
I'll give it a shot for now.
Hope on one side
Strength on the other
Hunting for pieces that fit together
One that was lost can now we found, and the past's mistake is now unwound
-
Byakuren?
-
Nope.
-
Shou.
-
Nope.
-
Nazrin?
-
Nope, but all of you guys are close.
-
(Sorry at school)
Sanae?
-
Nah.
Hint time: The first two lines refer to two different characters. The last guesses before Rita was going the right direction.
-
Ichirin!
-
Nue?
-
Mary was correct! "Hope" was Byakuren. "Strength" was Unzan!
-
YESH!
Now let's see, emm...
"I've lost the key, I've swalllowed it; doomed to never know what that little doll is; But I can see and control those strings; and that's enough even for someone like me" (this one is easy...again)
-
Alice
-
Alice
Ninja'd
-
I knew someone was going to say Alice. But no, it isn't.
-
Shanghai?
-
Medicine.
-
Nope and nope
hint: she may not know what the little doll is, but someone really close to her does. Dolls and strings are used in a really deep way. Also, the important part is the first one
-
Alice's Grimoire?
-
Remilia?
-
xD
Nope!
-
Hourai
-
It's not alice, it's not any doll of Alice, and she isn't related to Alice
-
Koishi! :p
-
Koishi! :p
Yes! THe little doll was any man's mind, and the string would be the subconscious.
-
Heh, I just knew when you said the about dolls and string meaning something else. Anyway...
Rollin~ Rollin~ Rollin~ These stiffs are kinda broken~ Heck yeah!
This one should be easy.
-
Hina?
-
Orin.
-
Whatthe is right! Can't seem to get that song out of my head....
-
I am merely the first of three
But the only one to act independently
-
Sapphire.
-
Nope!
-
I'm just going to throw Merlin out there, even though I know it's incorrect (she can go "beserk", but she's the second sister, not eldest).
-
Lyrica? (PoFV)
Bah she's the youngest! I'll count that as my guess for the round.
-
Not Merlin or Lyrica.
Hint: It isn't any of the Prismrivers or the Three Fairies.
-
Hm...Chen?
-
Nya-uh Nuh-uh.
-
Hourai.
-
No.
Hint: Has had only one appearance, period.
-
Rika? o_O
-
Ruukoto?
(First Maid character, the others being Mugetsu and Sakuya)
-
Not either of them.
Hint: Both of the previous guesses were very close (in different ways).
-
Sara?
-
Is it Rikako?
-
Neither of those.
-
Mima.
-
Shingyoku?
-
No.
Hint: The two guesses that I said were very close (in the last hint) are still the closest guesses so far.
-
Hint: Has had only one appearance, period.
That hint doesn't really help...
Anyway...YuugenMagan? Its eyes move independently.
-
The Five Magic Stones.
-
Nope.
Hint: The last guess was close (in a different way than the other two that I said were close)
-
The Four Magic Stones?
-
Nuh-uh.
Hint: [soiler]It isn't the Three Magic Stones, Two Magic Stones or One Magic Stone either.[/soiler]
-
Um...the Red Tank?
-
Um...the Red Tank?
That's it! (It's the first of Rika's three tanks, but the only one not piloted by her.)
-
That's it! (It's the first of Rika's three tanks, but the only one not piloted by her.)
Yahoo! Anyway, my turn!
My strength is unfounded.
Don't go over your head.
Oh dear, you've killed me...
No wait, I'm already dead.
-
Uh. Yuyuko?
-
Uh. Yuyuko?
Yup. :D
-
All right, have fun with this one. I would recommend wiki hunting on this one.
The man, bull, cat, bird
Champion of twenty one
The ending of life
-
Wow...er...
Satori?
-
Uh, what? Umm... Yuugi? Yeah, Yuugi!
-
Suika.
-
Kasen! :V
(hey if we're naming off oni, might as well get them all...)
Yeah I know nothing's been confirmed yet but hey.
-
No, no, no, no, and no to Konngara.
The hint: the wiki you want to look at is Wikipedia
.
Actually, let's go with two hints: the poem does not decribe the character, but what the poem describes is a clue to the character
.
-
I'm gonna go with Nue.
-
The Dragon God (going with my gut, probably way off)
-
No and no.
-
Nue?
-
Parsee.
-
Whoops, forgot to check for a while.
No and no. Another hint: the entire thing is a reference to a card
.
-
Chen
-
No.
Tarot card.
-
Komachi?
-
Keine.
-
No.
The card and the character are connected via a meme.
-
Sakuya
-
Yes.
-
The definite one...
The one who is somewhat...
The one with potential...
They and I are of a kind.
-
Medicine?
-
Not Medicine.
-
Shingoku?
-
Not Shingyoku.
Big hint since I'm thinking I made this one too hard: The poem references MotK.
-
Yuyuko?
-
Not Yuyuko.
Another big hint: Yuyuko is one of the three other characters mentioned in the poem, though.
-
Oh, don't tell me there are three characters to guess...
I can only guess Yuyuko and Mystia but I'm clueless on the third.
-
Oh, don't tell me there are three characters to guess...
I can only guess Yuyuko and Mystia but I'm clueless on the third.
You are correct about Mystia being another one of the three other characters.
-
Well, I have no idea who the other one is....
-
Hint:
What do Yuyuko and Mystia have in common?
-
Wriggle?
-
Not Wriggle.
Hint: The poem isn't referring to the food chain.
-
Actually I was referring to the game all three of them are in.
Er...Youmu?
-
Not Youmu.
Hint: It isn't the game either.
-
Please give hints that actually help...
Satori?
-
Youki?
-
Not Satori or Youki.
Hint: Satori is one of the three other characters referred to in the poem, though.
So, what do Satori, Mystia & Yuyuko have in common, and who also has that in common?
-
I have no idea. Er....Yukari?
-
Pink hair.
-
Chen?
-
Not Yukari or Chen.
Giveaway hint: Sect has the right idea.
-
Obviously, it's the manliest of all the Toohoos.
Yuugi Unzan.
-
Komachi~n?
-
Not Yuugi, Unzan or Komachi.
-
Gatekeeper Sara?
-
Kasen?
-
Kasen?
Not Kasen.
Gatekeeper Sara?
Correct!
[soiler]Really I could've used either of them, but I did decide on Sara when I posted the poem.[/soiler]
-
So... now that someone got it right and I didn't want to clog everything up...
Was that poem referring to me?
-
Gatekeeper Sara?
Correct!
Oh yay!!! Umm... forgive me if this is not very good.
Attacked for no fact,
plotted for revenge, in the end
it didn't matter...
Hmm... I think this might be hard if you don't think hard enough. And I thought I should make like a haiku and used "fact" instead of "reason..."
-
Wriggle, if you count "Wriggle versus SDM" as canon :V
-
Not the one I'm aiming for!
EDIT: Now that I think about it, I think I made it a bit too undescriptive... so time for an early hint! Her revenge span was not very far from her first appearance.
-
Would this be...Mima?
-
Not Mima-sama. You are... relatively close.
-
Alice?
-
Nope! Alice is not quite it.
-
Rika?
-
Rika is also a good example for the poem, but she's not the one I was putting down. Good try, though! Everyone, good tries!
...Should I make a second half to this to make it easier after a few more guesses?
-
Hmm...Yuka?
-
Tokiko?
Also,
So... now that someone got it right and I didn't want to clog everything up...
Was that poem referring to me?
Yeah, that was what I meant when I said the poem referenced MotK. Points for originality at least, huh?
-
Woo, I was referred to in a poem for a guessing game on the internet!
-
Woo, I was referred to in a poem for a guessing game on the internet!
I suggest you put that on a shirt XD
-
I totally should...
But nobody would get it. :V
-
Orange. She was her own midboss, right? No, she wasn't... how 'bout Louise, then?
-
Hmm...Yuka?
No Yuka here.
Tokiko?
Nope!
Orange. She was her own midboss, right? No, she wasn't... how 'bout Louise, then?
You got it!! :D Your turn~
Edit: I mean Luize/Louise was right, not Orange.
-
I'll give it a shot:
A sense of direction
No object mistook
I am strong!
Never mind how I look!
-
This seems easy, 'cause it's Nazrin.
-
This seems easy, 'cause it's Nazrin.
:D Yup!
-
... Eh, let's try this. Definitely not as frustrating as my last.
Stay away from that one
Less she steal your heart from its home.
Yet she'll die if she's lonely
Well... maybe.
-
Satori?
-
Nope.
-
Reisen?
-
Close, but no cigar.
Though, Reisen can steal my heart any day. :blush:
-
Tewi!
Rabbits die when they are alone!
-
Yep. I was trying put as few references to lying in the poem as I could manage (the fourth line), but it makes the first two lines seem a bit strange.
-
Gazing from the dark
A cryptic entity
From the depths of demons
The worst comes with five
-
Insert Obligatory "Five Magic Stones" Entry Here.
-
Nope
-
Yumeko? (From Makai, and Stage 5 boss of TH05)
-
YuugenMagan.
-
YuugenMagan.
Correct!
-
Someone else can take it - I've got nothing right now.
-
I'll do it.
Do you think of what could have been?
Do you sometimes contemplate what ifs?
Turned left? Chose her instead? Bought that?
I sometimes wonder about all those things.
But, it's not my job to see and tell those.
It is just to record what is.
-
Akyuu?
-
Eh, close but no.
-
Ayaya?
-
Keine?
-
And Unually is correct!
-
...wow.
Really?
uh... guess I should'a thought of something. Yeah, I'll pass. :ohdear:
-
The colors are proof
I am under a great master
With proof of my prowess
One is under me
-
Ran?
-
Alice.
-
Ran?
Correct!
-
Ehh, I got nothing; guess I'll follow the rule of three (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/RuleOfThree) and pass.
-
Okay, I have another one.
The winged diva
In the darkened world
Innocent as she comes
And silently as she leaves
-
mystia lorelei~
-
Nope.
-
Remilia Scarlet?
-
Flandre?
-
No to either.
-
...Rumia? Ex-Rumia, at least.
-
Nope.
Hint: This character is the first of her kind that Reimu has met.
-
...Elis?
-
...Elis?
Correct!
-
I dunno how I didn't think of her before...She lives in makai, she is the innocent devil, and she doesn't say a word xD...
Lesse.... Em...
"My left foot is on one side,
my right one, on another,
I see differently with each eye
and time is getting slower"
-
Sariel.
-
nope
-
Okuu
-
nope
hint The character has no relation whatsoever with those two characters. The first two lines do not refer to territory nor a thing, it's more in a spiritual sense
-
She lives in makai, she is the innocent devil, and she doesn't say a word xD...
I'm so stupid, I thought this was part of the poem :derp:
So... Satori? No wait... um... Sakuya?
-
nope
-
Byakuren.
My guesses are so random, geez. :fail:
-
nope~
-
Eirin.
-
The feet make me think of being in between life and death, so I'll go with... Mokou.
-
Youmu?
-
Youmu?
You're correct!
-
Okay, let me try one.
Blood boils, tension rage
History's enmity turns the page
A battle raging on for years
Engulfs the heart's worse fears
A fleeting existence bleak, but bright
I hope, one day, to see the light
-
Couldn't you wait for Whatthe to decline the turn?
Mokou.
-
Couldn't you wait for Whatthe to decline the turn?
Mokou.
*shrug*
And yea, you're right. Gah, I gotta think up a harder one.
-
Hey, Whatthe? Do you want to do the next one?
-
Hey, Whatthe? Do you want to do the next one?
Go on ahead
-
Oh crap, sorry (finally checked this tab again). Yeah, I give up trying to come up with something, so I pass again.
-
Myriads of power surrounding me
Undulating energies
Knowledge of studies past
Yearning to reveal what was hidden
Understanding the clues
Underestimating the condition
-
It's Patchouli!
-
It's Patchouli!
Correct!
-
Couldn't you wait for Whatthe to decline the turn?
Why don't you stop with constantly telling us this?
If the winner would want to post his/her own poem, they could post it on their own, without acting like johnny law.
-
Okay, here's one:
The beauty of the night
Reminds me of home
Dwelling deep within the green
Makes me feel at home
What I have left behind
I will never revisit
-
Suika.
-
Why don't you stop with constantly telling us this?
If the winner would want to post his/her own poem, they could post it on their own, without acting like johnny law.
Actually, no.
People need to stop jumping on other's turns or I'm going to start handing out probations.
-
Not Suika
Oh and sorry about jumping ahead so much. I just wanted to keep the game going.
-
Reisen.
-
Reisen.
Correct!
-
Pass. Can't think of anything.
-
-BOSS APPROACHING!-
Okay, here's a boss poem! If that makes any sense.
On the outside looking in
Reliving a cryptic dream
Sometimes you can see me as one person
Or maybe I am more
The strange can be very intriguing
A partner can be very comforting
As long as I am not alone
I am not disturbed
What I cannot believe in
May be the most believable
And sweetly I drift
Into what was never known
-
Sakuya?
-
I keep thinking of Maribel...
-
I keep thinking of Maribel...
BOSS DEFEATED
You win!
-
I'm so awesome~
Well, I can't think of anything at the moment, heheh... sorry.
-
Terror comes in many forms
Usually fearsome
Sometimes innocent
Bound by chains
Or hidden away
What humans perceive is often false
Which means I can have fun
-
...Kogasa?
-
...Kogasa?
Nope.
-
Koishi
-
Nope.
-
Mystia?
-
Nue!
-
Nue!
You got it!
-
Without a name I follow through
Through and through I follow you
Helping you around the place
Even though I'm just a face.
-
Koakuma?
-
Koakuma?
Haha wow that was to easy, you are correct
-
Can't think of anything, so I'll pass.
-
I aim to bring the best
But it's only secondary
-
Marisa?
-
Yumemi?
-
No to both.
-
...momiji?
-
Close.
-
Then...Hata-tante?
-
Incorrect. The answer was Sacchan.
Hehe! (>w<) Yes, you got the right answer!
-
:P
lesse...
"this is a curse,
an endless one,
this is a curse,
that might as well be called love"
-
Koishi?
-
nope!
-
Mokou.
-
no~
-
Alice?
-
no~
hint: it's more about something negative that love brings to someone
-
Flan
-
nope~
-
Kaorin
Renko?
-
no~
-
Umm...Remilia?
-
no~
hint : the character is a guardian.
-
Is it Parsee?
-
Is it Parsee?
YES!
-
:V
We've only just met,
And yet I know you more than anyone else
As much as yourself
-
Satorin?
-
Satorin?
Yes!
-
I'll pass. Can't think of anything now.
-
I finally thought of something, so here:
Above two and below zero
-
...Cirno? xD
-
...Cirno? xD
Nope!
Not really a hint: Ironic that she's the first guess though.
-
Letty?
-
Letty?
Not Letty.
Actually, I probably shouldn't have posted that "Not really a hint," it's more confusing than anything else...
-
mokou
-
The Five Magic Stones Lunasa.
-
mokou
The Five Magic Stones Lunasa.
Not any of those.
Hint: "Two" refers to a single character.
-
Utsuho?
-
Utsuho?
Nope!
-
Wait, Ran?
-
Wait, Ran?
You got it!
Nine-tailed Ran is above two-tailed Chen and below zero-tailed Yukari. (The answer being nine is why Cirno being the first guess was ironic.)
-
Hmm...can't think of anything now really. I guess someone can take this turn.
-
SURPRISE! :P
I'll take this turn then since it has been long enough.
In a world where once there was a war.
One that sparked a divided life as we know it.
A dreamy girl stands, not quite alone
With an ability to see what humans can not.
Who is she?
-
Maribel?
-
(Sighs)
Harder one next time I think. ^^
-
Oh my, A riddle thread without the king of riddles, me? I bet I can solve any riddle you throw at me. I'm also a liar, but I'm still good at riddles.
-
anything, huh?
"if you keep changing your reality,
You'll soon lose the perception of it.
the night'll swallow it completely,
and you'll be like a lost kid"
-
Mystia?
-
nope~
-
Reisen?
-
no
-
Yukari?
-
nope, it's not yukarin~
hint: Imagine a scene of a lost kid. Like this, you'll surely find out who it is
-
Sakuya?
-
The three fairys? Medicine?
-
Nope, no, and nyet
-
Rumia.
-
No~
-
Keine?
-
no~
hint: WHERE do you think that a child would get lost in?
-
Bamboo forest of the lost?
Forest of magic?
-
I'm not gonna tell you. You'll have to guess!
-
What do you think I'm doing? Dont make me smack you with this fish-o-mine.
-
Tewi?
-
No
-
Koishi
-
No >.<
-
Sanae?
-
nope (c'mon! I didn't make it THAT hard)
-
I believe the confused responses beg to differ, besides that the riddle could apply to all the suggestions.
As well as anyone from Reimu to Alice to Kaguya to Mokou to Nue to Unnamed Giant Catfish.
-
Five Magic Stones.
... That's not even a joke answer.
-
no xD
lemme add somethin' to it
"But you won't be blind,
for the stars will be your light,
for you have enough power,
to change nature's order"
-
..Maribel?
-
Or Renko.
-
Parsee.
-
No, no and no.
-
Marisa.
-
Tokiko.
-
Marisa.
FINALLY!
WE HAVE A WINNER!
-
Humans fear what they can't understand
They are the ones who shut me in this land.
-
Nue?
-
.........
...
...
...
Satorin?
-
Byakuren
-
Byakuren
Correct!
-
Sorry for the long wait; it has been a loooong day.
A normal day, a normal life.
Not so much now, but then, what is normal?.
How I got here, no one is sure.
But alas, I'll fight forever more.
-
...Alice?
-
Eirin?
-
You both mis-timed your death bomb...
*pichuu~n*
-
D= I haz no continuez!
Sanae?
-
No miracle for you my friend.
*pichuu~n*
-
Mokou?
-
Sakuya?
-
YOU WA DEAD!
*pichuu~n*
STOP! Hint time!
Read the third line. It's not just how she got here, but what happened during... 'then' if you will.
-
Reimu?
-
Reisen?
-
Kanako? Suwako?
-
Maribel?
-
Everyone bothered Reimu.
HAX SIGN TO ALL!
Apart from Smoku...
Smoku lives. ^^
-
Wow, I'm the awesome one for now.
So, guess it's my turn now... please, be gentle. It might be very easy as I never did do poetry.
Here goes:
A maiden with heart pure,
Is overlooking this land.
Untouched by eyes,
she holds secrets in hands,
yet there is none near whom she stands.
-
Yukarin?
-
No
-
Koishi.
