mass update pool:4587 -> cannibalism
nuke pool:4587

I don't know anything about Touhou but this seems like it applies. Cannibalism is for the act of, preparation for or completed preparation for. Saigyouji Yuyuko is a ghost girl or spirit per her wiki so eating a ghost would fit, much like how the example for cannibalism shows a cow girl eating steak. Someone will have to correct me if I'm wrong about this.

There's a shit ton of Touhou pools that all seem subjective or loosely taggable but what can you say about the site that was effectively Touhoubooru once.

Yuyuko is a ghost, but she also looks like a human. The difference between this pool and the cannibalism tag is that the former is specifically for her eating ghosts while the latter could cover other humanoid characters. For example, Yuyuko is also often portrayed as wanting to eat Mystia Lorelei, who is definitely human enough for the tag to apply.

Also, most of the ghosts in Touhou aren't humanoid, so cannibalism wouldn't apply for the posts in the pool if we follow TWYS guidelines for that tag.

As above, cannibalism doesn't fit this. The tag should be named something along the lines of phasmophagy though I'm unsure if there are other instances of ghost-eating outside of Touhou. Yuyuko isn't usually tagged ghost girl either: saigyouji_yuyuko ghost_girl

Unsure what to do with the related pool #5795 (Madoka - Madoka's Revenge). Might just need to be gardened away?

Given the site's reputation, I'm honestly surprised to realize we don't have anything like a pervert revenge tag (where the perved on character retailiates against said pervert). I imagine that pool could probably fall under that hypothetical tag...though in practice that pool is half pervert revenge, half a role reversal of pool #3171, so it'd still need gardening.

Subjective subset of Engrish. I don't know if this is something we want to be searchable or not (see too_many_*) but it's at least my personal belief that it doesn't matter to taggers or searchers how many grammatical errors there are, just that there are any or none.

I'll make a tag for it. If the tag becomes overused (it already is somewhat polluted) it can be nuked later.
