It's kind of exciting to imagine how many Western Switch owners will be introduced to the Touhou universe through this game. Maybe the English-speaking Touhou fanbase will see a big influx of new members!

Still, I wonder how many people who end up buying this just because it's an anime-themed Switch game will be unaware that it's a fan-made game, as there aren't really that many fangames that get retail console releases in the US or Europe.

I don't know, either. I'd entertain the possibility that "Lumia" is how ZUN always intended her name to be spelled (since we've never gotten an official English-language release of Embodiment of Scarlet Devil), but ZUN has been spelling it as "Rumia" since 2004 according to the Touhou wiki.
