Cirno

From 4chan Tournaments Wiki
Cirno Gallery

Cirno is a character from ZUN's shoot-em' up video game series Touhou Project. Introduced as a boss character in the sixth installment Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, the ice fairy has become one of Touhou's most recognizable characters, with her popularity largely coming from memes and fan art.

Tournament History[edit]

Cirno has made five tournament appearances in 4chan's Queen of /v/ video game waifu contest. Though Touhou is noted for being a very turbulent series for its characters when it comes to qualifying, as many will often qualify one year and fail to qualify the next due to the heavily contested series limit slots, Cirno has secured a slot in every eligible tournament to date.

After jobbing the first round in her first tourney appearance to Rosalina in 2019, she made a breakthrough in the 2020 edition thanks to Touhou's long-standing influence in the imageboard's culture, resulting in her first Elite Eight showing alongside eventual champion Reimu. However, she was eliminated in the quarter-finals by dark horse white wolf Amaterasu with a margin of just TWO votes, preventing a dreaded all-Touhou final. Cirno placed 5th overall.

A popular and consistently well advocated for character among threadgoers, Cirno has had a fair amount of success, making it to round 4 in her return year of 2022, 2023 and 2024, but falling short of a return to the Elite Eight. Some have attributed her falling short in later rounds to weariness among some anons at the idea of the Queen of /v/ tournaments receiving yet another Touhou character as its winner.
