* GrowingTheBeard: This story is the author's first writing project. It can be hard to decide what's the moment where the story started to hit its stride.

* NightmareFuel: Quite a bit.
** Suwako, Goddess of Curses, has lots of it. She says that not all curses are harmful, but one of the helpful curses she uses on Ayumu is one of invisibility. The catch?
---> '''Suwako:''' Keep in mind this stops ya from interactin’ with people as well, objects aint so much a problem but people’d just phase through ya for the most part. It’s still a curse.
---> '''Ayumu:''' This was for slow deaths wasn’t it?
---> '''Suwako:''' Let’s just say I’ve fought in many, many wars and leave it at that.
** [[spoiler:Danjuro and the Fusakazu clan. They specialize in Charm to the point where they turn people into thralls that serve only their will. Danjuro in particular had enslaved a fox that had reached nine tails and had begun the ascent to divinity.]]
* TearJerker: ''Yes''.
** When Kanako couldn't wake up Sanae from a nightmare, [[spoiler:because the nightmare made Sanae believe Kanako wasn't real]].
** [[https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/a-fox-in-paradise-touhou.588297/page-58#post-45495832 Sidestory 2.0: The Art of Illusions]]. [[spoiler:Ayumu is huddled in cave, freezing cold, low on magic and forced to spend more to keep himself warm. Then a vision of his deceased lil' sister tells him he needs to take care of himself. He is well aware this is either his own magic fooling ''him'', or a property of the cave. He promises not to waste more magic. Satisfied, the illusion of his sister snuggles in next to his side, and he allows her to remain [[BelievingTheirOwnLies because she's warm... and he misses her.]]]]
** Takeshi's final scene.

** A conversation between Ayumu and Sanae, that leads into the nature of Suwako the resident GeniusLoci:
---> '''Sanae:''' This shrine is rather… boring.
---> '''Ayumu:''' It’s quaint and not exploding, so it works for me. It also doesn’t have any holes in its roof, it isn’t on fire, it hasn’t disappeared, it hasn’t beaten me up, and it doesn’t watch me bathe. So it may just be an improvement.
---> '''Sanae:''' Now most of that is just a run of bad luck an-
--->''[[{{Beat}} beat]]''
---> '''Sanae:''' [[BreadMilkEggsSquick Watch you bathe?]]
---> '''Ayumu:''' What?
---> '''Sanae:''' You said the shrine watches you bathe.
---> '''Ayumu:''' [[BlatantLies No, I didn’t]].
---> '''Sanae:''' I distinctly heard you say that.
---> '''Ayumu:''' That is just your human ears acting up, between the traffic and your excitement you are hearing things.
---> '''Sanae:''' Yes, I’m hearing lots of things. Like you, explaining yourself. Now.
---> '''Ayumu:''' Oh hey. Is that a manga shop? Fascinating, let's go over there where this conversation isn’t happening.
---> '''Sanae:''' You will explain yourself.
---> '''Ayumu:''' [[RefugeInAudacity I absolutely will not, I am leaving this conversation at full speed]].
---> '''Sanae:''' Hey!

* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments:
** [[UnsportsmanlikeGloating Kanako reaction to being named Best Goddess]].
** The conversation between [[SnarkToSnarkCombat Yukari and Ayumu]] while waiting for Sanae to pack:
---> '''Yukari:''' Still awake in there?
---> '''Ayumu:''' Yes, sorry. Just thinking about a few things.
---> '''Yukari:''' Do not harm yourself.
---> '''Ayumu:''' [[BornUnlucky Life does that for me]]. So what is the plan? Are you just going to dump us off somewhere?
---> '''Yukari:''' You believe after all the times I’ve saved your life I would just dump you somewhere with no prior plans?
---> '''Ayumu:''' [[RunningGag I distinctly remember you murdering me the first time we met]].
** [[https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/a-fox-in-paradise-touhou.588297/page-90#post-47229098 The 'Together We Ride' Omake]].
* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: The story has a bunch, usually involving Sanae.
** Anytime Ayumu shows that [[BigBrotherInstinct 'yes I have been a big brother for about a century, how can you tell?']]
** Sanae and Ayumu's trip to dream Akihabara. Sanae had to give up a lot of her desires to support her mothers, and took the chance to fulfill one of her childhood dreams. It's made even better by Ayumu being a GrumpyOldMan while he helps her.
---> Perhaps this is a good time to mention you've never been able to stand Akihabara.
---> Sanae for her part however, looks like the child who got the pony they've always wanted for Christmas. At Disney World.
---> “'''This!''' This is-”
---> Noisy, annoying, a little smelly.
---> “'''Wonderful!'''”
---> Yes that too you suppose.
** Sanae's birthday is one long [=CMoH=] but the high points include:
*** The [[spoiler: Tokyo Trip]] reveal reaction. Paid for with Ayumu's boon from Yukari.
*** Sanae and Ayumu's bond after the trip to [[spoiler: the ''actual'' Akihabara.]]
* SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome:
** Kanako's RousingSpeech in DDC.
---> Tengu of Youkai Mountain. There is your enemy!
---> In that pathetic excuse for a castle are those who have attempted to throw Gensokyo into chaos, and that have taken the lives of your own.
---> They believe that in doing so they can take over our lands, cause a revolution!
---> They believe they can get away with this…
---> They believe they can threaten our way of life…
---> They believe they can cause harm to the followers of the Moriya and get away with it. Allow the Moriya to disabuse them of that notion.
---> '''Divine Pillar - Meteoric Onbashira!'''
** Ayumu's plan for Seija, despite averting the UnspokenPlanGuarantee, works JustAsPlanned.
** In the main continuity, [[spoiler:Ayumu successfully gets Yukari's attention, and Yukari procedes to [[CurbstompBattle utterly destroy Seija]], before tossing her into Yukari's gap dimension.]]
** Revealed in an AlternateContinuity, Ayumu's Last Word - [[spoiler:The Final Fox of Miyagi]].
