I'm barely familiar with the Touhou series so I don't know who to associate with whom aside from the rabbit and that Reimu girl.

lol the moment I saw this picture I remembered this one... post #255700

Left to right.
Top row: Patchouli Knowledge, Morichika Rinnosuke, Hakurei Reimu, Cirno, Reisen Udongein Inaba, Yakumo Ran
Bottom row: Izayoi Sakuya, Houraisan Kaguya, Konpaku Youmu, Yakumo Yukari, Kamishirasawa Keine (transformed), Kirisame Marisa

I don't recognize a few of the SZS characters, and couldn't name any of them.

I think Harumi would have made a better Kaguya.

Nah, Harumi should've been Patchouli. Kiri should be Kaguya.

Also, Kafuka should be Reisen, since eye contact with her can drive you nutso.

names get

Am I the only one disappointed that Nami isn't the 'ordinary' witch?

Kiri = Patchy - of course, hikikomoris
Nozomu = Rinnosuke - male (except Nozomu isn't the only male in his series)
Kafuka = Reimu - other than the main character connection, I don't see any similarity personality-wise (Reimu's lazy, Kafuka's an alleged yandere)
Maria = Cirno - on some levels, Maria is also a ⑨
Meru = Reisen - electromagnetic waves... probably correlated to cell phones using waves
Abiru = Ran - Ran is a fox youkai; Abiru LOVES tails (no wonder she's always bandaged)
Chiri = Sakuya - Chiri DOES have an arsenal of knives hidden under her bra, except we rarely see them, for her favorite weapon is a shovel
Nami = Kaguya - probably because Kaguya is the only girl with a seemingly normal haircut (in this case, a hime cut); Nami is the only normal girl in class (and does NOT want to be one)
Rin = Youmu - Youmu uses katanas; Rin once threatened to cut down Kafuka with a katana after the latter deduced the alternate spelling of her name: "zetsurin", which means "unparalleled" (if you know what I mean)
Matoi = Yukari - of course, with Matoi's stalking abilities and Yukari's powers to cross dimensions
Kaere = Keine - the possible correlation might be Kaere's split personality and Keine's superpowered alter-ego
Harumi = Marisa - probably because Harumi is a shipper (of the yaoi variant), and Marisa IS the subject of various shipping tendencies (of the yuri kind, this time)

I'm gonna cave!

Meru isn't Hatate :<

Well I suppose this picture came out earlier than Double Spoiler.

zero, meru = reisen is because her cellphone messages drives people insane
Kitsu=Sakuya because she is such a perfectionist

I planned on doing a series of Touhou/Zetsubou-Sensei videos, and two of these combinations are actually the same ones I used.

Rinnosuke is Nozomu
Cirno is Maria

But, from there, they're all different. However, this seems to have been before the release of TH9, which a lot of my choices came from. Although, after seeing this, I'm gonna change one or two characters in my own thing.
