'Mikofags please explain some things to me:

1) Is Miko actually an immortal? Like, Tenshi or Mokou-immortal?
2) Did Miko actually use Futo as an unwilling experiment putting her soul in a plate?
3) Did Futo kill Tojiko? Did Miko plan it?';

'>>46375243
1. Miko is a Shikaisen, in Taoism they are the lowest level of Immortals. However she seeks to study further in hopes of achieving the wisdom necessary to become a Celestial.
2. Not unwilling, she requested that Futo do the Shikaisen ritual first to see if it would work or just kill them. It is quite selfish of her part but Futo accepted to do so herself.
3. Tojiko was meant to become a Shikaisen herself and take part on the ritual with Miko and Futo. But Futo switched out the jar Tojiko was meant to use as her recipient object for the ritual with one that would decay and break down. Causing the ritual to fail for Tojiko and for her to simply die. This was done because of the feud between the Mononobe and Soga Clans in the past. Despite this, official material states the two do not have a poor relationship, and that Tojiko enjoys being a ghost.';

'>>46375626
To add to that, shikai involves transferring one's soul from one's mortal body into an inanimate (thus, possessing no lifespan) object. The object then over a long time transforms into a likeness of the soul, while the abandoned body transforms into the object. Tojiko's vessel "died", and so did she, turning into a loose soul, or a ghost.

The closest western equivalent would likely be lichdom. The difference being the phylactery in this case becomes your animated body and, through a loophole, doesn't have a prescribed lifespan.';

'Reminder that Kasen, despite not knowing anything about hermits, is still better than Toyotasubaru no Mercedes';

'>>46375821
>>46375626
I always thought Miko's immortality was at a higher level than the rest of her entrouge. Like Seiga is still a hermit, Futo is a plate, Yoshika was zombified, and Tojiko is a ghost... But Miko was reborn an immortal.
Or else, what was the big deal with her revival? Seiga (biased, yes) called it a grander revival than Jesus

Koishi also addresses Miko and Mokou (ULiL) in the same sort-of way, so I always presumed their types of immortality were equivalent.';

'>>46384408
It isn't, but, contrary to Futo or Seiga for example, she does seek its higher form (Celestialhood).
>Seiga (biased, yes) called it a grander revival than Jesus
Prince Shotoku's national myth does paint him as a nearly miraculous figure, and the phantoms in TD did rejoice at his/her revival for this reason. There's also the possibility that Miko isn't literally Prince Shotoku revived, but rather his legend manifested in Gensokyo (like other embodied myths) as a person, which would further reinforce the stupendousness of it.

Jesus was also revived as more than a man, so something something parallels.';

'>>46375821
I dont get it. So you transfer your soul to an object but is your conscious still alive in your body?';

'>>46384638
No, the body is effectively dead, as there's no soul animating it. In Touhou, "you" are the soul. The soul also shapes the body, which is why the object is slowly transformed into a likeness of yourself. What's more, this likeness is susceptible to self-change, as you will. Miko markedly did change her appearance, while Futo did not.

Mokou's immortality functions upon the same principle: her soul is indestructible and immovable, so when the body dies, it creates another body around itself. Of what and according to what image is up to speculation (the reason why Mokou looks different now may or may not be because of self-perception), but it's explicitly said it's the soul willing it.';

While it's true that they have very different views on things, in sort of cultural history context it does make sense.

It also depends a bit on the timeframe we want to put her into. There were some really interesting attempts at mixing Christianity with what we could call western esotericism throughout the ages, and not all of these had negative views on matter or creation.

She could be an early Christian figure who however secretly believes in Hermeticism but thinks that the massess cannot be initiateted to it, so Christianity makes a great front. She could be a Protestant reformer figure who however secretly practices alchemy and magic.

Pushing a bit later Rocicrusianism would actually fit her excelently, but in this case it would be that she'd be some kind of Christina Rosenkreutz, the supposedly immortal and ascended teacher of an esoteric Christian sect who has had to go into seclusion, either to flee persecution or to study.';

So we all know that Miko was based on a real life character Prince Shotoku, we all know that she changed her body to a more modern form, so is she technically a transwoman?
For me the answer is probably not, and Miko could simply have always been female, but there are some reasons make me think otherwise:
1: In Sanae's good ending, quote: "At dinner, Sanae's confused by how a old bearded guy on an old 10,000¥ bill and one of the hermits she met are supposedly the same person. It notes how she didn't care for science or history that she'd try reading up some and that being in Gensokyo she has no access to current rumors from the outside world, one of which was that Prince Shoutoku was a sham and that Sanae doesn't realize that's the cause of the incident." So does that implied Miko used to be a bearded man? I can't explain this part at all
2: Some says that Futo didn't realize Miko at first (this is probably uncannon because I can't find it anywhere in the game) so does that mean because she changed her gender so no one realized her?
So that's some reasons that I can't explained if she was a woman all along, hopefully the comments will help. But here's some reasons I think she was a woman
1: Miko is based on Prince Shotoku, not necessarily means she has to be exactly the same person, the same guy, so she could be whatever gender ZUN wants her to be
2: When a Shikaisen "reborn" they will normally come back with an appearance as close as them as possible, not only that makes everyone recognize them, but also because they can feel familiar with their newer body. So she could always have been a woman';

No, because Miko doesn't suffer from gender dysphoria. She is a genderbent Prince Shotoku. Prince Shotoku changed his physical form to fit the modern times. Modern day Gensokyo is a matriarchy. Miko chose the shape of a woman because it is more socially beneficial.

'>>46668443
It's not the most accurate comparison. Lichdom is just the closest (popular) western equivalent of shikai. One difference is that, in Touhou at least, "you" are the soul, and the soul shapes its physical vessel to suit its needs if it's allowed to. For example, Mokou's soul creates a new body around itself in presumably its own image when the old body dies. In shikai, the soul transferred into the inanimate object slowly morphs the object into a humanoid projection of the soul's desired body. The critical thing is in the case of shikai the change is conscious and can be influenced.

Causes and reasons aside, Miko did consciously make her new body female. It is still her sword's, in that it has no prescribed lifespan, but the presence of any and all body parts would have been up to Miko's soul to decide during her transformation. May or may not have a pee-pee. May or may not have a vag00. Not that it matters in the slightest.';
