Fandom (a portmanteau of fan and the suffix -dom), as used here, refers the large fanbase of Touhou Project, its culture, and its fanon (fan and canon).

Fanon means the unnofficial content related to an official product. In the Touhou Project, because of its popularity, and ZUN's relatively broad narrative and lack of detail regarding some aspects, there is a high number of fanon interpretations affecting both story and characters. These interpretations often take the form of doujin (fan created comic books, games, music, etc).

Some of these more popular interpretations take the form of memes, which propagate and spread throughout Touhou's culture. In some cases, these memes are more popular and well-known than ZUN's official content, even spreading outside the fanbase, so opinions vary on them within the fandom. Regardless, they also serve to introduce and attract newcomers to Touhou Project.

Because character pages are to be focused on canon, fandom and fanon are to be cataloged here, by each official work and the characters introduced in them.
