Synopsis: Touhou Ibarakasen - Wild and Horned Hermit

Set over the course of ten volumes in this official Touhou series, which chronicles the nine-year gap between the UFO and WBaWC games, we delve into the escapades of the business-challenged shrine maiden Reimu Hakurei and her inquisitive companion Marisa Kirisame, as they encounter a young, enigmatic hermit named Ibara Kasen. Noticing the disarray in the operations of the Hakurei Shrine, Ibara Kasen resolves to become a frequent visitor, eager to share her seemingly boundless wisdom with the shrine maiden to transform her establishment into a true Shinto Shrine. But does this well-intentioned yet persistent hermit offer only benevolent guidance, or is there a more malevolent secret lurking behind her amiable demeanor and the bandages on her arm?
