Touhou Sangetsusei
Touhou Sangetsusei (東方三月精) is a four-part manga sub-series of the Touhou Project written by ZUN and illustrated by Nemu Matsukura and Makoto Hirasaka, consisting of Eastern and Little Nature Deity, Strange and Bright Nature Deity, Oriental Sacred Place and Visionary Fairies in Shrine. It focuses on the daily lives of the Three Fairies of Light, said to be typical residents of Gensokyo. "Sangetsusei" (三月精, also romanised as Sangessei[1]) translates roughly as "Three Fairies", but san (三) is pronounced like the English word "sun", getsu (月) means "moon" and sei (精) is pronounced like sei (星, "star"), alluding to the story's protagonists.[2]
