shanghai doll
Touhou character. The physical component for Alice Margatroid's spellcard "Eerily Luminous Shanghai Doll" in Perfect Cherry Blossom / Immaterial and Missing Power, as well as her familiar in Imperishable Night.
Shanghai is a very popular supporting character (or artifact) in Touhou fan art depicting Alice.
Some comic artists give the doll a personality and feelings of its own, making it a "master doll" that helps control the lesser dolls. Others show it as Alice's primary magically-controlled "puppet". These points of view can be mixed, possibly to give an impression of Alice "debating with herself" through doll use, reminiscent of the way ventriloquists use puppets. Sometimes she/it is even depicted as lacking "doll" traits entirely, resembling a minigirl.
Another view is that Shanghai is a type or class of magical dolls rather than an individual doll. This is based on the fact that several Shanghai dolls are seen simultaneously in Perfect Cherry Blossom.
Canonically, Shanghai, like all the rest of Alice's dolls, is a mindless drone that requires direct supervision for all but the most basic of autonomous action, despite Alice's ongoing efforts to create a truly sapient construct. When a fanwork depicts Alice finally succeeding, Shanghai is usually the subject.

上海是描繪愛麗絲的Touhou粉絲藝術中非常受歡迎的輔助角色（或工件）。
一些漫畫家給娃娃帶來了自己的個性和感受，使其成爲一個“主娃娃”，有助于控制較小的娃娃。其他人則将其顯示爲愛麗絲的主要神奇控制的“木偶”。這些觀點可能混合在一起，可能是通過使用娃娃的使用給人以“與自己進行辯論”的印象，讓人想起Ventriloquists使用木偶的方式。有時，她/它甚至被描述爲完全沒有“娃娃”特征，就像一個小小的女孩。
另一個觀點是上海是一種或類型的魔法娃娃，而不是單個娃娃。這是基于以下事實：幾個上海娃娃在完美的櫻花中同時看到。
從規範上講，與愛麗絲娃娃的其他所有娃娃一樣，上海是一款無知的無人機，盡管愛麗絲正在努力創建真正的智慧結構，但除了最基本的自主行動外，需要直接監督自主行動。當粉絲們描繪愛麗絲終于成功時，上海通常是主題。
