Meanwhile, Miko’s been approaching this problem from her own angle.

Once she arrives, they basically set up the worst night ever where she gets chased by youkai acting as urban legends all night and begs to go home. This way, they’ll know exactly when she tries to use it, and can make preparations for Sumireko’s arrival. Presumably this is the explanation for how she just waltzed right in during TD yet Kasen has to go through all this trouble.Īnyway, Mamizou tricks Sumireko by giving her a fake Gensokyo Power Stone that’s actually a tanuki in disguise. Luckily for everyone involved, Mamizou happens to be in possession of Gensokyo’s own Power Stone (ie: a stone taken from the sacred place called Gensokyo), which lets her go through the barrier whenever she wants. Sumireko’s plan is dangerous because it might destroy the barrier, but if all she wants is to get inside, then all they have to do is invite her in “properly”, ie: what’s normally called spiriting away. She’s cool with it though, and comes up with her own idea to help. After Marisa’s gone, she plans to head out herself and get her own business done.īut she gets caught by Mamizou, who uses magical anime inference powers and figures out Kasen’s entire scheme. So when Marisa gathers the balls, she decides that rather than risk the balls destroying the barrier entirely, she’s gonna punch a whole through it herself and send Marisa through to stop the culprit. She wants to go outside and “look for something”, which should ring some bells to people who’ve been following WaHH. Sumireko just wants to talk to the people booted out because she’s a bored high school student meeting magical people for the first time, but they always end up fighting for one reason or another.Īnyway, Kasen figures out what’s going on and wants to stop it, but she also has ulterior motives. There are more than seven, but whenever seven are gathered they just boot whoever’s holding them outside of Gensokyo. They don’t actually grants wishes though. Sumireko sends them into Gensokyo, and uses her shadow to start rumors that gathering them will grant wishes or whatever. Because they contain spiritual energy from the outside world (which otherwise lacks spiritual energy), they disrupt Gensokyo’s Barrier and naturally punch through it. These are basically rocks taken from various sacred places like Stonehenge and the Pyramids (this is a gameplay mechanic in multiplayer). But she’s also somehow managed to gather Power Stones from around the world. However, she’s only able to get her “shadow” inside normally. She hears about Gensokyo somehow, thinks it’s super-cool, and tries to get inside. Who happens to have psychic powers, but mostly she’s just a normal kid. Sumireko is a bored high school student in the outside world. I want to summarize the plot of Urban Legend in Limbo.
