I have to admit it makes me feel pretty awful for the Reimyu, those two panels showing her reaching out for her mother and immediately losing all hope are pretty well laid-out.

The little Reimu was built as a pretty entitled prick, stealing little Marisa's treasure while she was asleep and saying it was her own fault for sleeping, eating her stuff most of the time and so on. Mother Reimu told both of them to apologize but only Marisa did, and when she was hit by the zombifying bullet that puts Jiangshi like reading on your forehead little Reimu didn't give a shit.
She also told her not to come close to her sweet-sweets that were "all hers" and when the Mom Reimu hit the Maricha by accident when first bit Reimyu was celebrating, and when she said she'd lick lick her because she was hit hard Reimyu just said "I WANT SOME TOO!".
So despite all that even I'm feeling half sorry for her.
Man it's been so long since I skimmed over this whole story I'd forgotten she was the one that tried to steal Mister Treasure back at the start of this chunk of the comic. I didn't know about the other stuff as I'm still pretty horrible at reading moon.
Has takumi been watching a lot of western horror lately? Seems like standard practice in those movies to finish with a swift execution after the target has been sufficiently tortured.

It looks like she is chewing her last chomp of reimi. Zombierisa took a really big bite in the last page.
Srsly, can we see the aftermath of this? I really feel like there was -way- too much focus on this.
Not that I didn't like it, I'm just eager to see what happens next. Takumi kind of dragged this part out.
Sidenote: Poor thing. Srsly. Completely unable to understand what was going on, cried out for her mother when at the height of fear and terror, only to get munched by her. Takumi is always a professional when it comes to this.
