To be honest, I don't think there's a flame war going on between the fandoms at all. It's just the usual "brony vs. anti-brony" conflict happening on Danbooru, a website where a lot of people happen to like Touhou as well, and therefore might encounter crossover pictures when looking for Touhou pics.
So, anyway... I just noticed that Marisa is flying without any apparent means of propulsion.

I was under the impression that she was perfectly able to fly unassisted and mostly kept the broom around 'cause, well, witches ride brooms. Just part of the motif.

Yep. She learned flying spells pretty much to even be considered a magician, so she uses the broom as a prop and weapon.

I always liked to think that the broom was more like an assist... She can fly fine without it, but could fly faster or with less effort with it.
Bottom-right... I swear, when I sat down to think about it one day, the similarities became all too obvious and NUMEROUS. It was like comparing Patchouli with Ayase Yue from Mahou Sensei Negima all over again.

Here you go. I didn't write it specifically for you, but rest assured I would write it ten times over if it means I don't have to listen to fuckwits like you say nothing in as many words as possible.
I dislike the fandom and I do not care for the show. However, there is something about this that feels strangely ...right. I cannot put my finger on it.
Actually, I would've expected Rainbow Dash to be partnered with Aya rather than Marisa...
Mm... nah, dosn't fit as well. Aya tends to keep herself to a more reactionary "I'm just a reporter, don't mind me" unless she needs to 'make' something newsworthy come about. Marisa is more competitive, outspoken, and so forth, much like Dash.
