To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Touhou. The humor is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also the references to Japanese mythology and philosophy , which is deftly woven into each and every characterisation - such as Yukari’s personal ability which draws heavily from Lencioni’s theory, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realize that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Touhou truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Marisa’s quippy remark "Looks more to me like 'Man uses the decimal system," which itself is a cryptic reference to Japanese linguistic. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as ZUN's genius unfolds itself on their computer screens. What fools... how I pity them.  And yes by the way, I DO have a Mini-Hakkero tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the lolis’ eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 graze points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.
