** Yamame, the Youkai [[LampshadeHanging with a Familiar Mask]] Arachnid-Girl, is dressed like ComicBook/{{SpiderMan.

** Suwako, the [[PaperThinDisguise Poorly Disguised Goddess]] [=SuperFrog=], is dressed like Franchise/{{Superman}}.
** Yamame, the Youkai [[LampshadeHanging with a Familiar Mask]] Arachnid-Girl, is dressed like Franchise/{{Spiderman}}.

* OurVampiresAreDifferent: While reading through a book labelled ''Illusionary Taxonomy'' upon Marisa's first visit in the Scarlet Devil Mansion, one entry within discusses this trope. Many species of vampire are considered undead, but the type found in Gensokyo (ie Remilia and Flandre) are of the living variety and are more akin to demons. This trope ends up becoming a problem for Flandre at some point, both for [[YourVampiresSuck her less-than-stellar reaction to Dracula]], and [[spoiler:the mistaken belief that draining Marisa's blood will turn her into a vampire and thus grant her the immortality she's been seeking, according to Remilia after the incident, would've resulted in Marisa experiencing a DeathOfPersonality.]]

* LiteralMinded: Nitori's six hundred and fifty seventh plan to have Marisa reciprocate her love has her take the comparison of love as a fire a little too seriously. Her plan to "fan the flames of the heart" involve a large paper fan with a mechanical arm capable of creating strong winds. BeleagueredAssistant Momiji immediately points out the contradiction in Nitori's logic.
-->'''Momiji:''' Didn't you yourself just say those were metaphorical flames, though?

* OffModel: Kogasa's brief appearance during the events of ''UFO'' depicts her with both red eyes, while in canon she has heterochromia eyes; blue and red.

* {{Foreshadowing}}: Justified with Koishi, as she's a psychic that gives meta advice for the player, typically advice for each love interest or vague warnings of things to come.

* FortuneTeller: Koishi serves as meta advice for the player, typically advice for each love interest or vague warnings of things to come.

Taking place just after the events of ''Subterranean Animism'', news of her father's passing left Marisa with an epiphany: achieve immortality, while also living her (potentially immortal) life to the fullest by becoming more social, maybe by getting to know some of the girls better?

!!Provides the following Tropes:

* LoveChart: Parodied with Koishi's relationship chart (V.2). After discussing Marisa's relationship with the four girls, Koishi presents the "easy to use" chart to help her out. Marisa's InnerMonologue notes how every significant resident in Gensokyo is listed, with the resulting chart being "an absolute mess of arrows and labels."

* UnreadablyFastText: Marisa calling Patchouli a {{Youkai}} results in the latter going on an extended rant on the terminology of the species, generally describing them as supernatural creaturs that can take a human shape, all with the text scrolling fast and the text boxes transitioning before the player could even read them. Marisa getting picky with Patchi addressing herself as a 'Youkai Magician' results in ''another'' spiel in a similar manner.

* ShoutOut: The Gensokyo Five; each dressed in different cosplay:

** Yamame, the Youkai with a Familiar Mask Arachnid-Girl, is dressed like Franchise/{{Spiderman}}.

** Marisa, should she roll with the absurdity of the situation, dons a suit and goes by the title [[Franchise/JamesBond Agent Number 7]]. To further the reference, her character is introduced with the classic ''007'' introduction (just with Yukari's gaps instead of the barrel of a gun and Marisa [[SeanConneryIsAboutToShootYou wielding her mini-hakkeri to the screen]]) with a soundalike BGM.

* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Invoked as an option to defuse a situation between Marisa and Alice, when meeting up after the events of ''[[VideoGame/TouhouSeirensenUndefinedFantasticObject Undefined Fantastic Object]]''. Marisa is normally [[BloodKnight all too eager to get into a fight normally]], so seeing her casually tear apart her own spell card upon being goaded into a Danmaku duel is enough to catch Alice off guard, making her believe that Marisa's serious that her retribution is misplaced.

* UnreadablyFastText: Marisa calling Patchouli a {{Youkai}} results in the latter going on an extended rant on the terminology of the species, generally describing them as supernatural creaturs that can take a human shape, all with the text scrolling fast and the text boxes transitioning before the player could even read them. Marisa getting picky with Patchi addressing herself as a 'Youkai Magician' results in ''another'' spiel similar to the first, this time pointing out the exclusive human shape difference makes her, and many others (Alice, Meiling, Cirno, etc), not a youkai.

''Eastern Starlight Romance'' is a Romance VisualNovel based on ''Franchise/TouhouProject'', with Marisa Kirasame as the protagonist and Reimu Hakurei, Alice Margatroid, Patchouli Knowledge, and Flandre Scarlet as potential love interests.

Many species of vampire are considered undead, but the type found in Gensokyo (ie Remilia and Flandre) are of the living variety and are more akin to demons.
** Comes up as a result of Marisa reading to Flandre the book of ''Dracula''. Long story short, Flandre is not happy with being allegedly related to Dracula, who's not as noble as Remilia advertised him as.

* FortuneTeller: Koishi serves as meta advice for the player, typically advice for each love interest or vague warnings of things to come.

* HopelessSuitor: Nitori is the one character who makes her love for Marisa most apparent, but is always turned down by the end, as she already has four potential love interests.
