I don't know what that even means, care to explain on why is Luigi and Dedede there?
Back around the Terry-Byleth range (I think) there were a bunch of memes about a hypothetical future/alternate timeline Smash games, most of which were slapping a bunch of people together and saying something about Subspace Emissary 2 or the buffs/nerfs of the most recent patches. In this case, apparently Dedede, Luigi, Reimu and Heavy team up to beat the %$#@ out of Sephiroth or something. The meme then got brought back up when Sephiroth actually joined Smash.
That's kinda funny because pretty much exactly a year ago there was another leak involving both Reimu and KOS-MOS. Must be some kind of connection between the two.
that one i believe said Ryu Hayabusa instead of Sephiroth/Crash, and that KOS-MOS was specifically FP5, Hayabusa FP6 and Reimu FP7. plus it was on 4chan instead of 5ch
I'm still doubtful. 99% of the time leaks turn up fake, and the one that are true are just "Okay the guy that's getting revealed in like 10 minutes is so-and-so." I've got no reason to trust some no-name anonymous person with no credentials to back them up.
Interesting. Sephiroth isn't exactly a fringe guess (if this was a leak including a Min-Min prediction I'd be much more impressed) and there's been an absolutely astronomical amount of fake text leaks over the past two years, so on balance the odds of this being true are wildly against it. There's always a few legit leaks lost in the morass, of course, so you never know! But as always, a healthy skepticism is the best approach.
Yeah, this is another reason to be cautious. Any leak which seems like it's simply echoing popular lines of thought or previous narratives in the speculation community probably is just doing that, since roster speculation breeds fairly incestuous prediction patterns.
My friend who has pretty much nothing to do with Touhou randomly bought this game on Steam and absolutely loved it. He told me it gave him a sense of enjoyment no other games have has given him ever since he was a child, lol. Can't wait to play it myself, been waiting hard for the Switch release!
Thats normal and likely on Nintendos end or the publishers.
Nah, that definitely works. I have the English version of a SRW game on my Switch through the Hong Kong eShop. Switching accounts can be a hassle, but it's 100% doable. Of course, if you buy the game on the JP shop, it might not have the option for English - not sure how that works.

The majority of the Touhou cast would be better off as assist trophies or spirits, except for Reimu, Marisa, Youmu and Sanae. As far as I know, the rest of the Touhou characters have no place on the roster, mainly because nobody knows them anymore. Simple as that!View attachment 295506
Made a mock-up spirit list of every possible Touhou character that could be added into Smash Bros Ultimate if Reimu were added since the base game.
Feel free to discuss it
I fail to see why the majority of the Touhou cast has no place on the roster, nor do I see how only the four you listed are remembered. Cirno has the memes, the SDM crew shows up in just about every fanwork, heck, Sakuya even stars in a fairly popular fangame that's getting a Switch port this week. Not to be rude, but you seem to have a skewed idea of who's well-known and who's not.
Agreed, even if a Touhou character is obscure, I honestly believe that after Reimu gets introducted in a Smash game the Touhou fandom would go nuts for just about any second rep that gets in. (And to be honest what I've played so far Cirno does have a pretty fun personality so if she ever got into Smash it would be amusing.
)
Not to be rude or complaining, but unfortunately, Remilia, Flandre, Sakuya, Cirno, Alice and few other Touhou characters fall into the same boat as Lilac (Freedom Planet), they remain in obscurity, despite being popular.
And where are you getting this information from?
What I just stated came directly from observations of mine.
And where are you observing this?
I made these observations about Remilia, Flandre, Sakuya, Cirno etc. when I was browsing Touhou fanmade content.
Please elaborate. You can't just make bold, absolute statements like "People don't recognize (X)" without being able to back it up.
Don't want to be rude, but I'm still trying to find evidence to prove that Touhou characters are obscure, except for Reimu, Marisa, Youmu, and Sanae. Has anyone found any evidence to prove it?
Y'know, maybe you should've waited until after you found that evidence before you made that statement. Not trying to be rude, it's a legitimate tip. Make sure you can back up your arguments, or they're going to be toppled.
At least in my experience i never knew who Youmu or Sanae were until i started playing the games this year but i knew who Sakuya, Remilia, Flandre, Cirno, Alice were and knew them more than Reimu and Marisa so idk what your saying. (Sorry if my english is bad i'm still trying to improve it).
Okay, Sir, here's some evidence that I've found: I once made a survey, but I can't remember where I posted it. And at least 75% of the voters only knew at least Reimu, Marisa, Youmu, and/or Sanae.
To clarify, what I'm trying to say is that "Reimu, Marisa, Youmu, and Sanae are the only Touhou characters who have enough fame to warrant getting spots on the roster."
yeah, the EoSD cast seem to be the most well-known. Alice isn't a name I was expecting, but given how much she's paired up with Marisa, that might have something to do with it.
Reimu and Marisa yeah sure but Sakuya is more Popular outside the Touhou Fandom than Youmu and Sanae bc of Flowering Night & all the Dio simillarities that made her well known in the Jojo fandom. Cirno has all the memes like Chirumiru and Perfect Math Class so nah i don't believe that they're the only ones with enough "fame" to make it in.
The other Touhou characters, except for Reimu, Marisa, Youmu, and Sanae, were well-known until the early-mid 2010s.
That's because I'm curious about how the general public reacts to media. And once again, fame (AKA iconicity) ≠ popularity. That's all I can say for now.

Also we already discussed and told you about your obessiveness regarding popularity and fame.
Anyway, I'm curious about what will happen when Sephiroth releases.
I think I've had enough already.
The past pages you made yourself look like you have no clue about what you are actually talking about while repeating statements and questions people already answered you. I hope you can be considerate, I have been told its kind of irritating to a lot of people reading or participating this thread.
Seihou Project is more of a spiritual successor to Touhou, although Zun did work with Amusement Makers on the soundtrack of one of the games. Heck, the Touhou Wiki isn't sure if Seihou is a part of the Touhou universe even though a few of the characters did make guest appearances in Seihou Project games. I'd love to see an actual Seihou/Touhou crossover game.
I don't think Seihou warrants anything else in Smash besides Vivit getting a spirit.
