Jp.rika.ren appears to be a database for Magia Recordgame CGs and what not, so it's as close to an "official source" as we're gonna get. This version is an MD5 match too, so it's all good.

If you knew anything about Okina Matara youโd realize how funny this statement is. Okina is based off of the Buddhist God Matarajin. Who is in great part in real life based off of the Indian Hindu/Buddhist god Mahakala. Mahakala traveled alongside Buddhism, from India all the way to Japan, where he became Matarajin. I mean, itโs in the name. โMataraโ, the Sanskrit word for โMotherโ.
So really, this art right here? More accurate than a good majority of Touhou art.

I know sheโs not Dick and seems (to me) too old to be wayne. And because this is gender Bender he be canโt one of the female robins. So I think they either Tim or jason. I think ๐ค.
Or this is a one of those then I was wrong from the start.๐
Be careful, you might start by giving her a few inches but she will have taken a whole mile by the time morning dawns. Even then she will still be looking for sausage with her eggs for breakfast.
