How to prompt touhou characters in NovelAI

This page lists 229 character tags from touhou that work in NovelAI, each with a sample image.

Every image uses the same seed and prompt, so the only difference between two cards is how well each character comes through.

Put the character tag first and the series tag right after it. The series tag helps avoid mix-ups between characters with the same name and helps keep the outfit consistent.

Example prompt: izayoi sakuya, touhou, solo

When a character's name collides with another tag, the tag takes the form "name (series abbreviation)". The part in parentheses belongs to the tag, so keep it.

About the touhou tag

touhou is a series tag that NovelAI Diffusion can use. On Danbooru it has 900,574 posts, and its best-rated still image scores 1,427. The samples above put the tag at the front of a fixed base prompt with seed 1234, so the differences between tags come from the tag alone.

How each model draws touhou

V5

Follows composition and expression instructions closely, so the effect shows in a tidy form.

V4.5

Reacts to the tag more strongly, so its effect is easier to see.

ILLUST

WAI illustrious SDXL v17, a local model. Shows how the same tag reads outside NovelAI.

Writing touhou in a prompt

Put the subject first, then this tag, then quality tags.

Basictouhou, solo, best quality, masterpiece
With artistwlop, touhou, solo

The negative prompt and the full settings are on the terms page.

How these samples were made

Every image uses 832×1216, seed 1234, 23 steps and the k_euler_ancestral sampler. The base prompt and negative prompt stay the same for every tag, and only the tag under test changes. Images flagged by the NSFW check are regenerated with a new seed or hidden.

"東方" (Japanese for "eastern")

A series of "bullet hell" vertical shooter games created by ZUN, featuring a large cast of girls and almost no male characters.

Touhou first appeared on the NEC PC-9801 computers in its first five games between 1996 and 1998 before going into hiatus, during which time ZUN left his former team, Amusement Makers. These games make up the Touhou (PC-98) era. In 2002 he returned as the one-man doujin group Team Shanghai Alice and released Touhou for Windows, thus exposing it to a larger audience.

The games themselves, mostly in the danmaku ("bullet hell") genre, are addictive and have acquired a large following. In particular, his original music is incredibly popular and is the subject of numerous doujin remix albums.

Currently Touhou has twenty mainstream danmaku shooter games, six danmaku spinoffs, six fighting spinoffs and an action spinoff, with the fighting games and action game made in collaboration with Tasogare Frontier. The series also has a number of supplementary materials including manga, short stories, fanbooks, and music CDs.

The backgrounds and personalities of its characters (the majority of which come from the Windows generation) are often expanded upon in doujins and, occasionally, ZUN canonizes some concepts.

Touhou is also notable for being a de facto open source franchise, in which ZUN allows various fan works such as doujinshi and video games to be published and sold with little to no licensing fees. This allowed the franchise to remain popular to this day.

NOTE: Don't tag individual Touhou games unless the game is directly referenced by the post. All of the characters in a picture having debuted in the same game is not enough to count. The full cast of a game (with or without the protagonists) appearing will usually count, so long as no other characters are present.

A "Direct Reference" can include, but may not be limited to:

  • Depiction of gameplay mechanics found in the game (post #4907093)
  • Any kind of parody of the game or other work (post #4546543)
  • A character drawn in a pose from their official art (post #4495699)
  • A character wearing an outfit from a game or other work instead of their "usual" outfit, ranging from outfits that only differ slightly (post #4419411), to outfits that differ entirely, (e.g Turbo Byakuren). This may also include physical changes specific for a game (post #1366406)
  • The name of the game or other work being written in the post (post #3865937)

FAQ

Does NovelAI recognize touhou?

Compare the samples on this page. Every tag on this site shares the same seed and base prompt, so any change you see comes from touhou.

How do I write touhou in a prompt?

Write "touhou" near the front of the prompt and separate it from other tags with commas.

Should I use V5 or V4.5?

V4.5 shows the tag's effect more strongly. V5 gives steadier images with fewer artifacts.
