Why would she side with the French if she's from Rumania?

Depending on whether danmaku are capable of killing humans, sure.

Even If she had the power to destroy Germany by herself. France still would have surrendered before Remi could get a shot off.

But Remilia is a dirty slav so yeah

>>4128967
Why Remilia?

Britain had Alucard, and all he did was wreck some Nazi experiments.

There'd be the Nazi equivalent of a Touhou that Remi would beat up and that's all that would happen, no significant history changes. Everything would be hush-hush.

Would the world fare any better in a war where Flandre was a combatant on any side?

She would be captured by the French SS, and die in a concentration camp. I'm thinking Sobibor.

>>4128981
Wasn't Alice the one with Romanian ancestry...? Oh, wait, nevermind.

>>4128996
Yes.

Wars would become much less common and coincidentally focused around trying to calm down Flandre.

>>4129019

Alice is Hungarian.

>>4128997
Definitely Drancy.

>>4129054
Alice is from Bucharest. You must be thinking of Budapest.

Considering she's undead and can fly I would say so yes. Just send her out at night armed with bombs and blow shit up.

>>4129094

Now that you make me think of it, you are right.

>>4129054
Bucuresti ("Bucarest" in English) is the Romanian capital city.

>>4129062
You know, they think he's still alive even though he'd be 97, still living in Syria. When he was interviewed in the 80s and 90s he said his only regret was that he didn't kill more Jews. The man ran Drancy like clockwork.

actually Alice isn't Romania, the dollmaker from Bucuresti is just the name of a legend

i've never seen a blond Romania

>>4129145
Really? Info plz, sounds interesting.

>>4129145
Yeah, and I'm never seen a red haired chinaman.

>>4129145
Yeah, and I've never seen a red haired chinaman.

>>4128981

Remilia from Romania lololol

Remilia is an Italian name, and Flandre French(obviously). They're just generally European.

>>4129179

Lots of Chinese girls dye their hair red though, and she's a Youkai. Alice isn't a "proper" Youkai.

>>4129208
Flandre is like half French and half Belgian. Her name is an alternate spelling for the Flandes area, on the France-Belgium border.

>>4129208
Aren't Remilia also a French name? cause the male has Remi as a name, so if there's a woman version of the name, it will be Remilia

ITT: amerifags try to remember anything about "country" called Europe.

>>4129258
The male name is Remy, not Remi (I and Y have different pronunciations in French). And it's a short form for Remigius or Remedius... there's no way any of those names could be feminized as Remilia.

>>4129208
>>4129258
Remilia isn't really an actual name, but it certainly follows italian structure.

>>4128995
The Miss vs The Big Mick oh hell

Flandre caused the two nukes.
and after the war Flan and Remi stayed in Japan just for the sake of irony

No, Nazi germany would have a cyborg go and slay her.

Cirno did winter war

touhous don't exist.

>>4129145
Hair color is like the least important evidence as far as determining some animu character's origin is concerned.

>>4129133
A great man. Whether you approve of him or not, you can't deny he deserves respect for his dedication

>>4129962
explains why finns did so well

>>4129966
Prove it.

>>4129274
>I and Y have different pronunciations in French
No, they don't. A frenchman saying Remi or Remy would say both the exact same way.

>>4130034
You're right, just checked it.

not if she uses shitty guns like that.

>>4130054
I think she's supposed to be a chechen in that pic or something.

>>4129274
I know a guy called Rémi, but no Rémy. It doesn't look very much like a French name either. (native speaker)

Remilia could not be a French name. If it were French, it'd be more like Rémilie. (Example: Maria is Marie, Sylvia is Sylvie...)

>>4128967
Operation Kino commences.

The German top brass including Hitler get annihilated in one fell swoop.

Many parents name their children without any concern about from where name originally came from or in which country it most popular now.
Not to mention many names have their equivalent in other country/nation, applied to different Pronunciation it gives hundreds of versions.
Also having name by origin of country “A” doesn’t meant you can’t be a citizen of country “B”

>Belgium: Mohamed most popular name in Brussels.

>Alexander is greek name by origin, but nowadays not every Alex*** you meet on the street would be greek.

Remilia and Alice could be of any European country

Alice is the "Dollmaker of Bucuresti", if song names are anything to trust.

>>4131276
Nowadays. Not 400 years ago.

>>4128967
Would Gensokyo feel the shockwaves of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings?

>>4131385
Yes. 2005 was when PoFV was released, the atomic bombings were 60 years ago... what number was mentioned a lot in PoFV again?

so yeah

>>4131413
So does that mean the huge disaster that occurred in the outside world was a nuclear war and that gensokyo is the only place left? This would make a lot more sense though if Utsuho was involved in the game, after all Utsuho's nuclear abilities could resemble underground nuclear tests or a nuclear attack on Japan...

Don't even get me started on her neutrino emissions, she should emit neutrinos characteristic of nuclear fusion and one of the biggest neutrino observatories happens to be in japan.

>>4131487
I don't think it has to be a nuke, since it apparently happened before too. So just a lot of people dying should do it.

>>4131315
Rome 400 years ago : Pope Alexander VIII ( born in Venetians family , birth name Pietro wich is is a variant of Pedro (Spanish, Portuguese) and Peter (Greek))

>>4129962
You mean the cold war?

>>4131487
During PoFV Komachi (or was it Shikieiki?) said that some abnormal event was happening in the outside world which caused the dead spirits to grow in number faster than before. Namely, World War II. PoFV took place in 1945 B.C.

>>4132468
Sure. then 60 years later, there's as many souls as the previous one. What triggered the death of so many people?

The French would have done better if they moved every single one of their tanks to counter the blitzkrieg. They had more after all.

>>4132791
9/11.

Dohohoho.

>>4130134
It might be based on Emilia, and ZUN added the R at the beginning because he found it cool.

Touhou fans will participate in a thread about anything.

>>4132821
B-But 9/11 is 2001 and PoFV is 2005...

>>4132874
If that was true by any chance, my mind would be blown to no end.

>>4132821
The 9/11 incident caused a ridiculously low amount of death in comparison to real global tragedies.

Plus I don't think ZUN would ever think of recent Amerifag history as an inspiration source for Touhou game plots.

>>4132987
Besides, the soul that wanders to Gensokyo are only japanese. 9/11 victims are either rotting in monotheism hell right now or just wandering around in Real Life

>>4128967

Sure

>>4132896
Are you kidding? Threads like this are the only thing that make /jp/ worth looking at.

>>4132791
40 million people died during the battles of World War II.

You can take the casualties of EVERY war fought since then, including Vietnam, add them all together, and it still wouldn't be that much. I don't know where you're getting the idea that the wars today can even be remotely compared to the brutality and scale of World War II. There has never been a war on the scale of WWII and there probably won't be again, for a long long time.

WWII holds some of the following records:
Kursk - Largest tank and air battle involving the most men and machines in human history
Stalingrad - the most human casualties in any battle in human history
Leningrad - the largest and deadliest sustained siege in human history

Iraq and Afghanistan are like skirmishes compared to that.

>>4133025
The eastern front was hell on earth, kamerade. I WAS THERE. YOU WOULDN'T BELIEVE THE THINGS I'VE SEEN.

*sip*

It was probably the Tsunami in the far east

>>4133050
That guy is married. ;_;

The shiny clean ring is so much at odds with all the dirt on him.

>>4133025
Another record:
Battle of Britain - the first major campaign to be fought entirely by air forces.

Would Remilia even give a shit about World War II? So long as the occupying Germans would consent for her to continue sipping tea in her mansion she probably wouldn't even intervene.

>>4133068
In Soviet Russia, wedding ring goes on the right hand?

>>4133258
That's a nazi.

>>4133258
Maybe he's left handed. Or maybe he doesn't have a ring finger on his left hand anymore. Could be anything.

>>4133308
>>4133258

Photograph is flipped.

>>4133050
>kamerade
I don't think so.

>>4133388
This is why you don't have any friends. You can't even stand for people to call other people comrades.

>>4133416
People who pretend to be able to speak another language but can't, aren't what I consider "comrades".
Also, that is not the reason I have no friends.

>>4128967

Well considering her estates would of been burnt down by now I don't think she'd be in any frame of mind to aid the French.

>>4133485
...so THAT'S what she's doing in Gensokyo!

>>4133516
And that's why the French lost World War II !!!

The real question is, was Joan of Arc related to her?

Her onee-sama?

>>4133601
What? Persecuted and burnt by religious agents? Yeah sounds like she could be.

Nazis win.

Is that supposed to be an AK-47? If so, the handle should be behind the magazine...

>>4133706
It's a Romanian AK variant

>>4133706

That's a foregrip... and it's not an AK-47.

>>4133706
I dunno, google image search says otherwise.

>>4133706
>magazine
Oh you.

>>4133712
Thanks

>>4133716
>>4133718
My mistake

>>4133729
>/k/ memes
Oh you.

>>4133706
It is an AK-47. In fact, its an AKM with a sidefolding stock instead of an underfolder like the other one posted. The AKM is the modernized AK-47, and remains the most-produced AK variant in the world. The foregrip isn't as common, but the Russians and all of their copycat companies in Eastern Europe all produce handguards with the foregrip.

>>4134049

The hand guard with VFG is a Romanian design.
