Mega Man having no voice whatsoever in Smash makes him seem kinda creepy too! As I said, I think the most important thing for Reimu in Smash would be selling as many people on Touhou as possible rather than adhering to some perception of purity to the original games, and VA of some kind makes the character a lot more accessible.
I'm personally all for her being voiced by Cherami Leigh, but you know what, Cristina Vee I could see, too.
Not familiar with the name, who has she voiced?
Let's see...some of her roles include:
I actually still need to watch fairy tail, but i know a few of those others
I think I remember ZUN himself saying that he chooses not to have voices in his games, because he wanted his games to give off a sort of retro-arcade feeling when people play them. In an interview in his radio show, Nikenme Radio, He mentions that he would be dissapointed at the mere idea of having his characters being voiced in the PS4 exclusive of 14.5 and says, "I'll do my best to prevent it." I think he wouldn't even be able to afford to pay all of those voice actresses anyways, at least back then.
I don't think VA will affect or even sell the series to many people honestly, selling Touhou with a character that isn't even voiced in the OG game is such a false advertisement, even if in MvC MegaMan talks in his original series he is mostly mute cause authenticity matters which Sakurai going as far as using the original sound effect (tho he is a robot and I'm well aware that Ness were voiced despite being mute). I'm mostly fine if she only grunts but having her fully talks is more weird since I mostly love how fans interpret her voice.
We're talking whether she should have even just effort noises or be completely silent.
Hero was originally going to be completely mute before the Switch version of DQ11 was announced. Reimu could be voiceless in reference to the OFFICIAL Touhou games (and by ZUN's request). There are assist trophies that have no voice clips when they should've (like Ashley).
She could be. She could also be voiced in Smash because ultimately, it's alternate interpretations from person to person that's part of the magic of Touhou.
Wait, you mean that literally?! I only said that as a joke, LOL! Sure, I'm down for a poll! TEAM ANARCHY!!!!
If there's gonna be a poll, then just note that if Reimu does get in, the choice with the most votes may not necessarily be the official outcome.
Oh, I should've clarified that this didn't need clarifying. Trust me, I am totally aware that this is not going to affect her chances of getting a voice or not, because there is still a chance of her not even getting in the game at all.
In my honest opinion, they could just make one from scratch. I imagine it being the Touhou kanji in Japanese inkbrush style with the English "Touhou Project" being splayed over it.
I imagine the options would be the shrine logo for the 25th anniversary, a Yin Yang symbol or something like this:
I like this one! I didn’t know it existed, thank you for bringing it to my attentionI imagine the options would be the shrine logo for the 25th anniversary, a Yin Yang symbol or something like this:
.
Hey, Don't worry so much. I thought the same thing as well. I thought it would be extremely detrimental, and that it would be the biggest obstacle she would have to get through, then I realized it really doesn't matter.
You know what would be extremely cute? If they could get her to do all those wacky expressions that ZUN draws in the games as her taunt! Smug faces, clouds puffs and everything! I would coo and gaw so much~
Awwww~!Imagine you get 0-3'd by some anime girl and she hits you with this face.
She certainly could be, I just think it would be a bad idea that would make her come across as weird to the broader audience. Slavish faithfulness to the original games when they operate in a completely different genre and context isn't automatically a good idea (example: I certainly don't think anyone would argue that Reimu should be implemented as a top-down sprite to be faithful to the original games!)

1CC players: I'm in danger
Oh dang! I just bought Mushihimesama on the Switch! (I highly recommend it if you haven’t played, it’s another shmup where you play as a magical girl instead of a spaceship)
And the other day I was just thinking about how well done of a port it was to the original arcade version. If CAVE gets to port Touhou shmups, i promise they would be amazingly done and be worth your money.
