Here's my top ten in a random order!

1. Yuka Kazami
She created the Master Spark. Also, she loves sunflowers like me

2. Patchouli Knowledge
She's smart, powerful, cute, and much more. Plus, I have a strange fascination with characters with purple hair.

3. Aya Shameimaru
She's loud and nosy like me. Plus, I love her headwear.

4. Koishi Komeiji
She references Freud and Hartmann. Also, she can control and read your mind.

5. Remilia Scarlet
She's an adorable badass. Not to mention she's a vampire.

6. Nitori Kawashiro
After reading Arakawa Under the Bridge and playing MoF, I fell in love with kappas. She also invents awesome stuff and has a TV show to sell it on.

7. Flandre Scarlet
She was the one who got me into Touhou. I heard a remix of her theme(not the McRoll), and searched "Touhou" on Google. The rest is history.

8. Fujiwara no Mokou
Phoenixes rock. Also, I love yakitori.

9. Tewi Inaba
Bunnies+Mischievous=Super cute!

10. Sakuya Izayoi
She can stop time, has about a million knives, and is a maid.

Redo because my original list is just plain weird.

1. Ran (Mah waifu, and only Extra Stage boss I have beaten, plus she's from my favorite Touhou game of all time)
2. Youmu (Great theme, great character, and she's my main in 12.3)
3. Sakuya (No reason needed.)
4. Yuyuko (Great theme, great boss, awesomesauce)
5-10. Can't think of anyone.

♦ Grazing mindlessly ~
1. Ran is /still/ my most favorite of all. For being a youkai, she seems the most human out of all of the Touhous, if only from her placement in the family. Working under Yukari, caring for Chen...
2. Sakuya for grace and elegance. I imagine her so meticulously adjusting each knive in midair before they fly down in serial-killer fashion. I can't draw her without at least one ring of knives.
3. Reisen has risen up for having the most stable personality of all Touhou. With how very mad the rest of Gensokyo is, she really connects to me on VE... Really illustrates the relativity of sanity.
4. Parsee has a very natural aura around her that defies the supernatural environment of the setting. She just comes across as a character that is easy to sympathize with.
5. Yuyuko's whimsy and elegance combined with raw power is a very virtuous quality to have considering such a tragic past. Really, it feels like she has completely transcended the entire event.
6. Youmu the gardener is surprisingly battle-ready. Her strength as a dual-wielder and duty to Yuyuko are admirable, but there's nothing quite like Yuyuko's trolling to make her adorable.
7. Momiji I've just been slow to draw. There's still no escaping the twin-edge of the lap dog and guard wolf. I always feel like she's victimized by Aya's reports...
8. Alice comes with a really enigmatic personality: she comes across as impersonal, but she becomes very intimate friends with those she connects with. It's kinda how I roll, too.
9. Suwako's pure cuteness is too much to stand! Her playfulness parallels even Yuyuko's, always out for the next game to play. She strikes me as very innocent and childlike, with a capacity for seriousness.
10. Byakuren is steadfast in her goal of coexistence between human and youkai. She's so ardent in her beliefs that imprisonment within Makai won't break her resolve.

Top ten Touhou characters, huh? This'll be a long post. It just seems like the kind of thing that needs qualifiers.

10. Cirno - She's the strongest... fairy. While that isn't saying much, it's still something to be proud of when she manages to be a boss grade criter while her compatriots only manage to be standard challenge obsticles to litter the coridors. And she's just so cute.

9. Morichaka Rinouske - I don't care if he's never been in a game, or that he doesn't fight. He's my kind of dude.

8. Loreli Mystia - I think people underestimate her because of her stage 2 status. She's still a boss grade critter, setting her well above the majority of threats to Gensokyo's human population. Pitting her up against the shrine maiden of Hakurei and the one who lurks within the boundary is not a fair comparison. She's a man eater, she can deny humans their sense of sight without also denying her own (I'm looking at you, Rumia,) and she has an overall creepy appearance that doesn't come out very well in ZUN's artwork but, trust me, is there, so Mystia makes my list as one of a series with White and Grey Morality's very, very few actual competent villians.

7. Riuji Utsuho - Speaking of villians. Burning the entire surface world to ash is about as sinister a motive as I've seen in any Touhou related feature. That being said, she fights a fair fight against Reimu, following spell card rules that I wonder how the underworld youkai even learned and have no reason to care about, so even then her villiany is more a darker shade of grey than actual black. She still lands in my top ten, though.

6. Izayoi Sakuya - Ninja maids are hot. 'Nuff said. That being said, "Jack of Ludo Bile." Also 'Nuff said.

5. Shiki Eki, the Yama of Xanadu - Normally, I hate black and white reasoning, but anyone who'll give Reimu what for for being a little B**** all the time gets a place in my top five. On a side note, it pisses me off when people mistake Yamaxanadu for her name. It's her job, nothing more.

4. Shyamemaru Aya - She's not quite a Genki Girl, but she's as cute as one, and is also very capable. A fine combination.

3. Saigiouji Yuyuko - I like tragic characters, and her back story is as tragic as they come. That and her cheerful attitude cement her as The Polyana, which is always an interesting character. Also, Bloom Nobly Cherry Blossoms of Suziume ~ Border of Life is possibly my favorite song ever.

2. Yakumo Yukari - A lot of people didn't like Silent Sinner in Blue, but I use it as my ultimate reason for placing Yukari in my top five. Lunarians as a race piss me off so watching her play them like violins was fun. Necrophantasia doesn't hurt either.

1. Fujiwara no Mokou - She's a tragic character with a very simple motivation and an amazingly fun extra battle. Plus, I hate everything the Lunarians stand for, so someone who's willing to give Kaguya and Eirin special attention gets special attention from me.
