Explanation

I am in love with the idea of Accel randomly appearing in various other worlds (usually sent via magic or science) and utterly destroying the general populace out of rage.

I first discovered the "Accel obliterates other animes" genre from an Index/Familiar of Zero/Hell Girl crossover fic from maybe 2014 or so. I still don't know the exact reason why it's defunct now, but it was fun while it lasted.

So I decided to make my own. But I needed a series that would not only feel good to rip apart, but was also one that I knew well enough to write about. And that's a tough balance. Mad respect for those who decide to write this type of fic.

Then I realize there's at least one world out there that's already well equipped and crazy prepared to deal with this sort of monster: Gensokyo has been putting up with gamebreaking monsters for ages. But not just any iteration of Gensokyo. I'm talking about the one riddled with puppets!

I'll be taking elements from Touhou Puppet Dance Performance (namely the general plotline) b/c I love that game, as well as Gen 7 Pokemon (SuMo/USUM) to make things even more interesting. I'm thinking along the lines of Z-Crystals, but in Touhou form. TPDP already had an excess of Magic Crystals, after all.

Also, Accel is powerful enough to get a puppet of himself as his starter. Dunno if he'll have more of a team like the rest of the characters though.

Cheers!

Prologue

"So take Misaka there! Says Misaka as Misaka saw a super secret rare Gekota puppet that you can only get from there!" Is what she said.

Upon Last Order's request, the two traveled (by air) quite a distance from Academy City, and landed at a somewhat rundown Shinto shrine. The brat then immediately deviated from her course to line up at a sweets stall right outside the shrine and left Accelerator to go inside and inquire about the stupid puppet on his own.

Passing through the gate was a very disorienting feeling. Well, as an esper, he did have poor affinity with these places. To the right side of the shrine was a nerdy-looking man wearing glasses. Accelerator walked up to him and, suspiciously shifting his eyes off to the side, asked, "You wouldn't happen to know about any frog puppet from here, right?"

"Yeah, yeah! Suwako! Suwako really is the best!"

"...Hm." 'That might be the thing the brat was looking for. The sooner I can find it and make sure with the brat, the sooner we can leave and get back to my lazy days of loafing around on the couch.' Thought Accelerator.

"So do you know where I can find it?"

"Ask around. Talk to everyone here. You'll surely find what you're looking for!"

'So he also didn't know. Maybe he was just another shitty fan of the damn thing and came here to find it too.'

But the man didn't move from his spot. So Accelerator decided to ask someone else. There was a surprising number of tourists bustling about at a rundown shrine like this. They all told Accelerator about how this shrine has a special connection to a world called Gensokyo, and about how people have been been spirited away before, but nothing about a damn puppet. It was pissing him off.

Just then, after confirming that he had indeed wasted all of his time for absolutely nothing, something small and colorful came into view, floating low to the ground, smiling at him. It was a puppet, peering out of a rip in space.

Accelerator suddenly felt dizzy again, like he lost or forgot something. Ignoring the puppet, he turned back and went through the gate againーand saw nothing. There was no sweet vendor outside, and there was not a single thing to the left, right, or across the road.

"...Last Order!" She was also nowhere in sight.

Desperation growing, he tried to check if she had went inside to look for him by herself.

"Last Order!"

Accelerator crossed the gate into the shrine for the third and final time... then suddenly blacked out. The last scene he could remember before he lost consciousness was the dead-silent, rundown shrine completely devoid of lifeーthe four-eyes, the tourists, and Last Order had all vanishedーsave for the small, floating puppet in a white hat and purple dress, peering out of a rip in space.
