oh boy time to nitpick about more shared sources

And it's Men in Black too woot

This time it's the question of if they get two Touhou games

One, which seems pretty obvious is Undefined Fantastic Object. After reading the plot, the UFO itself doesn't really look like one and it's more of a Touhou spin on it, with it actually being a flying ship owned by a ghost captain youkai. However before it's actual name of the Palanquin Ship is figured out, it is consistently called a UFO (an abbreviation for the title of the game), and the pieces of the ship the player collects look like miniature UFOs due to actually being shapeshifting snake-things and the logic "nothing else would make sense to be in the sky". There's also the track Heian Alien which I noticed because it's appeared in one of ZUN's arrangements.

Then the second game is Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom, involving an invasion on Gensoyoko by the Lunarians, who as the name suggests live on the Moon. There's really no difference appearancewise between Lunarians and humans, aside from stuff intheir article and their extreme obession with 'purity'. The moon rabbits also live there and work for the Lunarians, and the popular character  is one. There's a bit of a Lunar War going on due to the Lunarians mistaking the Apollo 11 mission as an invasion by humans, but I didn't look much into that, and the plot of LoLK is started by another character who is an enemy of the Lunarians messing up their capital, causing the Lunarians to deem it 'impure' and then all invade Gensoyoko to make it 'pure' and live there instead, with Reimu having to go figure out who's behind all this.

I feel like Touhou 12 (Undefined Fantastic Object) is most definitely valid, but Touhou 15 (Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom) is kinda iffy depending on if you really consider the Lunarians to be "aliens" or not.

Just trying to cover all the bases and put special mention to games multiple characters could have.
