Reimu Hakurei (博麗　霊夢 Hakurei Reimu) is the main protagonist of the Touhou Project series along with the deuteragonist, Marisa Kirisame. As the shrine maiden of the Hakurei Shrine, she manages the Hakurei Border of Gensokyo and exterminates troublesome youkai. Not much is known about Reimu's history prior to the events of the games. Her earliest mention in the Gensokyo timeline is four to five years prior to Chapter 22 of Curiosities of Lotus Asia, which took place in 2006. ZUN does mention in one of his Shanghai Alice Correspondence documents that there was a previous Hakurei Shrine Maiden, and it's generally assumed that there's a line of them.

Highly Responsive to Prayers

“	A small shrine resting in a country far to the east, the "Hakurei Shrine". Many out-of-the-ordinary events transpire here, causing normal people to almost never draw close to the shrine. On the other hand, there is also a reason that "things that aren't human" never descend to terrorize the Human Village: because shrine maidens, females with the power to channel the gods, have lived at this shrine for many generations, guarding the gates to other realms such as Hell and Makai where those "things that aren't human" reside. Long ago, powerful mountaineering ascetics, exorcists, and spiritual leaders from all areas of the country gathered in order to seal away youkai, demons, and other creatures from their land. Despite their great success, the recoil from performing the ceremonies was so tremendous that it annihilated everyone gathered there. Much time passed after that — so much time that the effectiveness of the seal began to fade. The shrine maiden currently living at this shrine has trained her body and mind intensely in order to fight these unstoppable enemies, these "things that aren't human", and prevent them from reaching the Human Village. Even though she knew it was a futile effort, even though she knew her life would be forfeit, she made her way to one of the gates. ...Actually, it's not really that serious. The truth is that this shrine maiden is Reimu Hakurei, who always gets caught up in strange things. One of the "things that isn't human" destroyed her shrine, and she flew into a rage. There is only one thing that will quell her anger: the total annihilation of all "things that aren't human"!! ...Well, that's half wrong too. The real truth is that Reimu Hakurei is actually quite the optimist. Acting on her whims as always, she figured she'd go and enter one of the gates. After a while, she realized that only the Hakurei Shrine's greatest treasure, the Yin-Yang Orb, was effective against these non-human creatures. Reimu "Well, whatever. Things will turn out just fine as long as I use the yin-yang orb skillfully!" What sort of fate awaits this shrine maiden?	„

A shrine located in the Far East, the Hakurei Shrine, houses a powerful seal that has begun to deteriorate. As a result, numerous non-human entities have started to emerge. Reimu sets out to investigate after her shrine is destroyed, using its sacred treasures, the Yin-Yang Orbs, to confront the beings responsible.

Her journey leads her to a gate that branches into two possible destinations depending on the chosen route: Makai or Hell. In Makai, Reimu battles Elis, YuugenMagan, and Sariel. In Hell, she faces Mima, Kikuri, and Konngara.

Story of Eastern Wonderland

“	Here among the mountains in a certain eastern land lies the relatively peaceful Hakurei Shrine. To strengthen her spiritual power, Reimu, the shrine's only maiden, had withdrawn into the mountains to train for a bit of training. "Training? That's been going all right, but suddenly I want to sleep in my futon!" she said, and made up her mind to return to the shrine. But when she got back there, she found the place infested with youkai and other crazed, inhuman freaks. Reimu: What's all this!? I won't be able to get to sleep with this going on... Very well, I can show you the fruits of my training! But Reimu hated training, and her real aim in going to the mountains was relaxing in their many hidden hot springs and savoring the delicious autumn foods. Between these pursuits, she hadn't done very much actual training. Genjii: My lady, these youkai seem strangely controlled. Their leader must somewhere nearby. I can also somehow sense the power of a foreign culture... in any case, I suppose I shall be accompanying you. Genjii, Reimu's loyal turtle servant, said worriedly. Reimu: I was going to take you anyway. After all, I can't fly... Then Reimu took Genjii and, as always, the secret treasure of Hakurei Shrine: the Yin-Yang Orb. To find the source of the problem, she faced the shrine to exterminate the youkai. Though she would meet many strange people in many strange places... Reimu (like Eriko Asagawa): Heh, sure is strange.	„

After returning from the mountains, Reimu discovers that the Hakurei Shrine has been overrun by youkai, spirits, and other non-human beings. Accompanied by Genjii and equipped with her Yin-Yang Orbs, she begins investigating the cause of the disturbance. Early in her journey, she confronts Rika, who is responsible for the surge of youkai, followed by encounters with Meira and Marisa Kirisame. Reimu ultimately defeats Mima, Marisa’s mentor, and seals her away once more, though the seal proves temporary.

Rika later draws Reimu into another confrontation in an attempt to seek revenge, this time piloting the Evil Eye Σ. Despite her confidence, Rika is defeated again.

Phantasmagoria of Dim.Dream

“	Touhou Yumejikuu Backstory Deep in the mountains in a country in the East, the Hakurei Shrine was mostly peaceful. The shrine maiden of the Hakurei Shrine, Reimu, was always getting wrapped up in strange circumstances (though it should be noted she was a bit strange herself), so her free time was when things were peaceful. Reimu: "Ah, what am I going to do with all this time on my hands. I wonder when something exciting is going to happen." When the protagonist is idle, something is required to happen. Reimu thought she'd get out of the shrine for a while instead of sweeping the garden, and so stumbled upon some ruins. Reimu: "Wait, what are these ruins doing next to the shrine. They weren't there yesterday!!" (something happens!) Mima: "Oh, Reimu. So you came, too." Reimu: "Great, it's Mima. Hmm, actually, it looks like there's a lot of people here ... " Reimu: "What is it with this ruins, anyway?" ... Mima: "It's said that something is asleep deep in these ruins that will grant happiness to whoever comes to visit it." Reimu: "Whatever, that sounds like something someone would say to get people to join a cult. Besides, none of this was even here yesterday. So what's up with that so-called prophesy?" Mima took out a folded piece of paper from her pocket. Reimu took it and unfolded it. This was written on the paper: The ancient ruins: "Fantasy Ruins" Grand opening, 10am today 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　・・・・ To you who visit the ruins, we present something to make you happy. Our sincere thanks to everyone who stops by. Reimu: "Hm!" Reimu: "What's with these pamphlets? (How is this some sort of ancient prophecy?) How can ruins have a grand opening? And none of this was here yesterday! How can you all be taken in by something that's so obviously suspicious!?" Marisa: "Hm, so Reimu's not interested. That must mean..." Reimu: "...Who said I'm not interested?" Reimu: "Er, actually, I'm pretty busy (not), but having ruins suddenly pop up here is a pain to deal with. I have my complaints, you know." Mima: "Isn't it almost time for the grand opening? I don't see an entrance anywhere. I guess we'll have to wait for now." Reimu: (Man, when did this... well, I guess this is pretty normal around here... huh?) Reimu: " ... it looks like there's a notice posted over here." Marisa: "Wow, really? Hey, what's it say?" Inside the Fantasy Ruins Capacity: 1 person The capacity must be strictly observed. If the capacity is exceeded, then we can no longer guarantee the existence of these ruins in this dimension Reimu: " ........ ?" Mima: " ... so, that means ... " Marisa: "fufufu ...

Reimu participates in the conflict surrounding the race to reach the Ancient Ruins. Upon arriving, she encounters Chiyuri Kitashirakawa, who challenges her so that Yumemi Okazaki can observe and analyze Reimu’s abilities. During the encounter, Reimu clarifies that her power is derived from divine authority rather than magic. After Chiyuri is defeated, Yumemi confronts Reimu herself in an effort to secure a way back to her own time.

Following her defeat, Yumemi offers to grant Reimu a request. Reimu asks for something that could assist with maintaining the shrine grounds. In response, Yumemi provides Ruukoto. However, Reimu ultimately chooses not to rely on her, as she proves ineffective at the task.

Lotus Land Story

“	In a far eastern land, there was a generally quiet shrine in the mountains. The Hakurei Shrine's shrine maiden, Reimu Hakurei was also generally bored. Reimu "Ah, man, I wonder if there's any work (something fun) around." And so, because of her careless words, a large amount of ghosts and such suddenly came barging into the shrine. You reap what you sow. Reimu "Eeek! What the heck is this!?" Reimu quickly got down to business and began her evil spirit extermination. Reimu "Hmm... At this rate, the shrine will be ruined again. Looks like there's no other choice. I'll find the source of this and crush it!" Somehow, (and you musn't make fun of the shrine maiden's "somehow" method) Reimu felt that the lake in the mountains behind the shrine was suspicious, and so she promptly headed towards the mountains. (Though I get the feeling that in times like this, it's precisely because she left the shrine empty that it gets ruined...) Reimu "This place is definitely suspicious. There are tons of evil spirits here." Reimu "I'm getting excited. I finally have some work (evil spirit extermination) again!! -- Meanwhile. Marisa "Hmm... What the heck is this magic power?" The possessor of a large capacity of fierce magic power, Marisa Kirisame, was suddenly tempted by a vast magical force. Marisa, intent on making this power her own, headed towards the source. Marisa "This is lovely! Where's this crazy amount of magic power coming from? Marisa made her way towards the lake without Reimu knowing. Well, that's what she had intended... And so, the two went to the lake for separate reasons... hmmm.	„

Reimu reflects on the unusual calm that has settled over Gensokyo, but the peace does not last. Youkai and spirits soon begin appearing in large numbers, placing the Hakurei Shrine at risk. After dealing with several of these disturbances, Reimu concludes that the situation is being caused by a larger underlying force and decides to confront it directly.

During her investigation, she defeats Orange, Kurumi—the guardian of the lake—and Elly, the gatekeeper of the Fantasy World. While advancing further, Reimu encounters Marisa Kirisame and defeats her, compelling her to withdraw and return home. Reimu later confronts Yuuka Kazami, defeating her in two separate battles.

For reasons that remain unclear, Reimu is subsequently transported to an unfamiliar world. There, she encounters Mugetsu, who claims responsibility for creating the realm. After defeating her, Mugetsu entrusts the world to her older sister, Gengetsu, who is also defeated by Reimu.

Mystic Square

“	1. Mystic Square Backstory Deep in the mountains of an eastern land, the Hakurei shrine was a little bit peaceful. Speaking of the Hakurei shrine, its shrine maiden, Reimu Hakurei, didn't seem too free at the moment. Why? Because a constant flow of demons, while few in number, were being sent from Makai. Reimu was busy constantly exterminating them, so she constantly had no free time. Reimu: "Things have been a little strange lately." Since Reimu felt something strange was occurring, she decided it was her duty to investigate, so she searched for where the demons were coming from. Eventually, Reimu discovered that the demons were appearing from the "Cave in Which the Door to Makai is Said to Be" (actual name) which had existed since long ago in the mountains behind the shrine. Reimu: "This has to be the place. There's no point in dealing with all these small fry. I've got to bust into Makai and teach their boss a lesson." Marisa Kirisame, who was observing this... Marisa: "Hmm... Makai, huh? That could be fun." Since Makai was the mecca of magic, she decided to go there (as a tourist) and immediately left to go without telling Reimu. Reimu: "Right, I wonder how I'm supposed to even get in. (sweat)" -- Meanwhile... Two of the residents of the human world, Mima, an evil spirit, and Yuuka, a youkai, didn't seem too happy about things from Makai coming into the human world. Mima: "Those snobby Makai demons. Don't they know that the human world is mine?" Yuuka: "This seems interesting! I've always wanted to go to Makai!" For these somewhat nonsensical reasons, the two of them each headed for Makai separately. Hmm.	„

A widespread surge of demons from Makai begins spreading across the land, prompting Reimu to take action to stop the disturbances. Traveling to Makai, she defeats its gatekeeper along with several inhabitants, including Louise, Alice, Yuki, and Mai. Reimu eventually reaches Shinki, the creator and ruler of Makai. Although Shinki initially allows Yumeko to confront her, she later fights Reimu directly and is defeated.

Following the conflict, Reimu learns that the increase of youkai and demons in Gensokyo was caused by a Makai-based travel service. Shinki states that she will address the issue, but despite this, demons continue to appear near the Hakurei Shrine.

Later, Reimu is drawn into an unfamiliar world where she encounters Alice once again. Confident due to having her grimoire, Alice challenges Reimu to a rematch, but is defeated despite her preparation.

Eastern Scarlet Devil Land ~ the Embodiment of Scarlet Devil

- 0 -
Every day in Gensokyo was more noisy than expected. Any mysterious visitor would be confused with a ghost of summertime.

All of that equates to just a normal summer. The outskirts were enveloped in scarlet illusion.

- 1 -
In the eastern mountains, far from any human habitation, is where the isolated Hakurei Shrine lies.

This mountain was never occupied by humans, and even now no one ever goes there. Thus the place was called Gensokyo. And even now, as usual, non-human creatures and just a few humans lived freely with pride.

People blindly accepted the advance of culture, and aggressively tried to eliminate any of the darker parts of their lifestyles. In truth, that was a comfortable environment for the creatures living in the dusk. They did not have to get involved with humans.

And one summer day, without a sound, a turbulent, mysterious mist began to envelop Gensokyo. It was almost as if Gensokyo itself was loathing the light of day.

- 2 -
The shrine maiden of the Hakurei Shrine, Reimu Hakurei was living a mostly peaceful life. At this shrine, seldom visited by those come to pray, she was sometimes bored, sometimes not bored, and generally living in a carefree manner.

On that day, Reimu was just a little less bored than usual.

Reimu: "Geez, what is all this? If we're not getting any light, then the weather is not going to clear up at all."

At the rate it was moving, the mist would reach past the shrine and descend to where humans lived. Gensokyo interfering with its peoples' lives would most likely cause Gensokyo to be eliminated by the hands of humans, too.

Reimu: "Well, finding the cause of all this is a shrine maiden's job (isn't it?). For some reason, that lake back there is pretty suspicious, so let's go there!"

With her body surrounded by the mysterious mist, The sharp-witted girl, relying on her senses, set off in the direction of the lake.

- 3 -
As one of the few residents of the forest, the normal girl Marisa Kirisame normally flew through the sky.

When she realized that she couldn't see any of the lake all of a sudden due to the mist, the normal-witted girl thought that there might be something happening on the island floating in the lake.

Marisa: "Well, humans usually create communities close to water, after all."

Monsters wouldn't be able to live without water, either. That was her very human-like way of thinking.

Marisa: "It looks like she'll be doing something pretty soon, so why don't I go take a look?"

The girl set off as if there might just be something valuable to find. Or, rather, she actually went looking for it.

- 4 -
The lake was entirely covered by the mysterious mist. This mysterious energy was so strong that a normal human would only survive for about 30 minutes, but less ordinary humans too would have about thirty minutes.

The center of the mist barely receives any light during the day, and filters out moonlight as well. From within the mist, a full moon looks hazy and several times larger.

If we suppose the mist is the work of a human, one could say that the human must have eaten belladonna flower.

In the very center of it all is an island, rejected by mankind simply because they could not live there. On that island is a mansion; one of few windows.

Inside the mansion that knows neither day nor night, "she" was there.

Reimu in the Scarlet Mist Incident

A thick red mist blankets Gensokyo, irritating Reimu and prompting her to investigate its source. On her way, she defeats Rumia and Cirno before reaching the Scarlet Devil Mansion, where she is stopped by its gatekeeper, Hong Meiling. After pushing past Meiling, Reimu continues inside and defeats Patchouli Knowledge and Sakuya Izayoi, eventually confronting the mansion’s mistress, Remilia Scarlet. Remilia admits she released the mist to block sunlight because, as a vampire, daylight is harmful to her.

After Remilia’s defeat, she later visits the Hakurei Shrine. Soon afterward, unusual rainfall appears over the mansion, leading Reimu to return there to handle the situation involving Flandre Scarlet.

—Gensokyo Record—

This is a remote place in an eastern country, far from any human habitation.

In ancient times, this was a place of terror. Those who wandered too close would be eaten by youkai. People named this place Gensokyo and never dared to approach.

Most people feared the youkai, but a brave warrior would occasionally rise to defeat them. Some of those brave humans settled in Gensokyo to keep close watch on the youkai. In those times, humans would fight with youkai every night.

Stories like those were common in this mountain country, and many places like Gensokyo existed in those times.

Over a thousand years have passed since then...

Humans gradually built up a civilization. Humans don't fear the dark anymore. Since they grew to the point where they could produce light to make it seem like midday even at midnight. Because the humans blindly followed materialistic science, unscientific worlds - in other words, those with things like youkai and oni - were eventually excluded as superstition.

Gensokyo was deemed useless to the human world as well, so priests sealed it away with the Great Barrier, which could never be opened again. Of course, both the youkai and the descendants of the brave humans who kept them in check were sealed away in the process as well...

That marked the end of the history of humans and youkai.

With the passing of time, those who still knew of Gensokyo died out...

Though innumerable years have passed since its sealing, Gensokyo is still home to many youkai and just a few humans. The youkai of Gensokyo have built up their own culture; one that is all that like the culture of the world when Gensokyo was sealed. However, it was not a materialistic culture - it was a culture centered upon spiritual awareness far exceeding that of the human world. The wise youkai sought not the bounty of objects, but the bounty of the heart.

For the youkais with such a civilization of magic, it is very easy for them to open the Great Barrier sealing Gensokyo. However, the youkai do not attempt to open it. On the contrary, they actually reinforced the barrier with an even stronger power. The barrier that had once locked Gensokyo away was now used in order to prevent invasion by the humans.

Nonetheless, the main diet of youkai is, of course, humans. Natural products are especially popular. Food-gathering teams would go out at regular intervals to hunt humans. Of course, the youkai couldn't let the humans know about their presence. Under the guise of various accidents and incidents of people running away from home, the youkai hunted humans. A simple missing person would barely even make the news since there were too many people in the human world.

Thus, the history of humans and youkai began anew.

The world may be a land of youkai, but even now, lost humans sometimes end up there. They are said by the outside world to have been "spirited away".

Most of the humans that end up in Gensokyo aren't able to return, but in the event that they are able to return to their original world, their spiriting away would only be met by a mountain of questions. Those people would unanimously say that the person was crazy, and would be believed by no one.

They'd claim things like "I saw Togenkyo", or "I went to Houraisan".

Those who visit Gensokyo seem to believe that it is a legendary paradise. At first glance, it looks like a utopia without anything unnatural, everything working in favor of the creatures living there. There is no doubt that, from the point of view of a person from the human world, this place was none other than paradise.

Gensokyo is a paradise for many youkai and a few humans. It will remain a paradise until humans are destroyed, or it is discovered by humans.

The following story is a record of the peaceful and fantastic everyday events that take place only in Gensokyo.

P.S. So, why is Gensokyo a paradise for humans if they have to live with youkai? Well, that's because when everyone has enough power to defeat youkai in combat, and that's anything but boring!

Ghostly Dream ~ Perfect Cherry Blossom

- 0 -
As spring turns to summer, the land is coated in silver illusions. People relax and bask in the calm of a winter with no end in sight.

However, none of that mattered to dogs or youkai, who are as energetic as ever. There have never been many humans in Gensokyo, but youkai of the winter were making plenty of noise.

The time is ripe for snow to melt away, and for snow storms to be replaced with storms of cherry blossoms. Even Gensokyo changes with the seasons, but this year...

...It is now May, and spring has shown no sign of arriving.

- 1 -
Reimu Hakurei, the maiden of the Hakurei shrine who lives in Gensokyo, didn't like the cold.

Reimu: "Ahh, it's cold."

It's just that this time, her complaint was that it was already May. The snowfall and blizzards had been fierce for a week, with no sign of stopping.

Reimu: "The cherry blossoms should have bloomed by now. Why is there so much snow this year?"

She figured she could find out why without asking about it. More talking would have made her colder anyway, so instead, she headed out to go straight to the source of the problem.

Reimu: "(Hmm, it seems to be coming from this direction, I guess?)"

Being of old-fashioned construction, the shrine was easily penetrated by wind, and even some snow, so it was as cold inside as it was outside. As usual, she turned to her intuition for guidance and set off.

- 2 -

Marisa Kirisame, an ordinary magician, liked the cold sometimes and hated it other times, just like other ordinary humans.

Marisa: "It's ordinary, but I don't hate spring."

The Kirisame residence was always warmed by a magical heater. Or, even without it, the magical room were warm by themselves anyway.

Marisa: "I can't visit the shrine during such a storm."

She saw some light pink petals floating by in the snowstorm in front of her house. They were petals that came from a flower that only bloomed in the spring in this eastern country. Yes - they were petals from a cherry tree.

Marisa: "Is this the only place that still feels like winter? May's already here, but you wouldn't know it from the cold."

If she followed the wind, she should find cherry trees blooming. The snowstorms and high altitudes on a mountain should cause flowers to bloom slower, so why were cherry petals coming from that direction? She decided to follow the trail of cherry blossom petals to find the spring that wouldn't come.

- 3 -
Sakuya Izayoi, a maid of the Scarlet Devil Mansion, was sipping bitter coffee in a warm room.

Sakuya: "We'll run out of charcoal and coffee beans soon."

Indeed, humans couldn't survive this winter without anything to burn for heat.

Sakuya: "I didn't expect winter to be so long. If we run out of supplies, the mistress will start complaining."

No one does home deliveries this far. Residents of Gensokyo prepare food and fuel for an entire winter in advance. Roads were buried by the snow, rendering them completely useless. Thus, the preparing has become a tradition that hasn't been changed in a very long time.

Sakuya: "I should put an end this winter before fuel run out. My lady, I'll be away until spring comes."

The mistress confirmed that spring would come the very next day, so she happily bid Sakuya on her way.

-4-
Gensokyo was in the middle of a truly long-lasting winter. May had only seen the coming of even stronger snow storms.

But in Gensokyo at this state, there was a place unknown to anybody that was filled with flowers in full bloom. Or literally, no "humans" knew about it.

In Gensokyo, there are few "humans" to begin with.

And spring has yet to come.

－幻想郷風土記－

ここは、東の国の人里離れた辺境の地である。

はるか昔この地は、迷い込んだら最後、妖怪たちに喰われてし　　まう、と恐れられていたのだ。　　人々はここを「幻想郷」と呼び、決して近づく事は無かった。

人々は妖怪に恐怖し、時には退治を行う勇敢な人間も現れたり　　した。そうした勇敢な人間の中には、妖怪が人里に下りていか　　ないよう見張る為、幻想郷に住み着くものも現れた。　　この頃は、妖怪と人間の戦いが毎夜の様に行われていたのだ。

この様な話は、この山国には良くある話で、特に珍しい話では　　ない。この様な場所もいたるところに存在した時代であった。

そういう時代が１０００年以上続いた...

　　次第に人間は文明を築きあげた。もう人間は暗闇を恐れない。　　なぜなら、夜でさえ、昼のような明るさで周りを照らすことが　　出来るようになっていたのだから。　　人間は唯物科学を盲信しだし、非科学的な世界、つまり妖怪や　　鬼などという世界は、迷信だと排除していったのだ。

　　幻想郷も、人間界に必要無いと判断され僧侶達が力を合わせ、　　２度と解けない大結界を張られてしまった。もちろん、幻想郷　　に住む多くの妖怪と勇敢な人間の末裔と共に...

　　そのとき、人間と妖怪の歴史は完全に終わったのだ。

　　しばらくたって、幻想郷を知る人間は居なくなった...

　　封印されてからどのくらい時間が経っただろうか、ここ幻想郷　　は、あの時と変わらず多くの妖怪と、僅かばかりの人間が住ん　　でいた。　　幻想郷の妖怪達は、ここで独自の文明を築き上げていたのだ。　　その文明は、見た目は閉じ込められた時代から余り変わってい　　ない。しかし、それは唯物の文明ではない、人間界よりはるか　　に優れた精神中心文明なのだ。賢い妖怪達は、物の豊かさより　　心の豊かさを求めたからであろう。

　　このような魔法文明の妖怪にとって、幻想郷を封じた大結界は、　　すでに解くことも自在になっていた。しかし、妖怪達は解こう　　とはしない。それどころか、さらに強い力で大結界を張り直し　　ていた。元々は幻想郷を封印するための結界を、今は人間の侵　　入を防ぐために使用していたのだ。

　　とはいえ、妖怪の主な食料は人間である。特に天然物が人気だ。　　そのため、食料班は定期的に人間を狩りに出ていた。もちろん　　そのとき人間に妖怪の存在を気付かれてはいけない。妖怪達は、　　色々な事故や家出に見せかけて、人間を狩っていた。その程度　　の行方不明者はニュースにもならない、人間界の人間は増えす　　ぎていたのだ。

　　こうして、人間と妖怪の新しい歴史は築かれていた。

　　そんな妖怪世界の幻想郷だが、今でも、たまに道に迷った人間　　が紛れ込むこともある。　　彼らは、外の世界では「神隠し」と呼ばれているようだ。

　　多くの人間は幻想郷から戻ることは出来ないが、運良く元の世　　界に戻れると、彼らは神隠しのことを山のように質問されるに　　違いない。　　その彼らは口々にこう言い、頭がおかしくなったのだと、誰に　　も信じてもらえないのだ。

　　　「桃源郷を見た」だとか「蓬莱山に行った」のだと。

　　ここを訪れた人間は、この地を伝説の楽園だと思うらしい。　　一見、見た目は無何有郷でありつつ、全てがここに棲む生き物　　のために機能した文明も兼ね添えていた。そう、ここは人間界　　の人間から見て、紛れも無く楽園だったのだ。

　　幻想郷は、多くの妖怪たちと僅かばかりの人間の楽園であった。　　この楽園は、人類が滅びるか人間に発見されるまで楽園のまま　　なのだ。

　　これからの出来事は、全て幻想郷内だけで起きる平和で不思議　　な日々の記録に過ぎない。

　　P.S. 　　幻想郷に住む人間にとって、妖怪と一緒で何で楽園かって？　　それは、皆妖怪に負けないくらいの力を身につけてるし、なん　　てったって、退屈しないじゃないの。

Reimu in the Spring Snow Incident

Despite it being May, Gensokyo remains locked in winter, with the cold only intensifying and no signs of spring arriving. Reimu notices cherry blossom petals drifting in from the Netherworld and decides to investigate, believing someone is preventing spring from returning. After traveling into the Netherworld, she reaches Hakugyokurou, where Yuyuko Saigyouji oversees the spirits of the dead. Yuyuko has been collecting the power of spring in an attempt to make the Saigyou Ayakashi bloom, but Reimu intervenes before this can be completed, defeating both Youmu Konpaku, Yuyuko’s gardener and guardian, and Yuyuko herself.

Later, Yuyuko requests that Reimu confront her friend Yukari Yakumo, who has been weakening the barrier separating Gensokyo and the Netherworld. Reimu defeats Yukari’s shikigami and then Yukari, but in the end only receives Yukari’s assurance that the boundary will be repaired.

Immaterial and Missing Power

“

The long winter, the short but grand spring, has withdrawn from Gensokyo.

The cherry blossoms that dyed that mountain in light purple have receded, and the land has been wrapped in a deep green...

But humans, ghosts, and many others were still gathering for cherry blossom viewings, again and again.

This cherry blossom viewing was not restricted to just the girls of Gensokyo. Every time a feast was held, an unknown, restless, strange aura in Gensokyo also increased in strength.

――However, even with the rise of this strange aura, nothing has happened yet. Nothing was known about the criminal's motive. Even their objective remained unknown.

When this strange aura strengthens, not a single person tries to stop this recurring feast. As such, everyone who comes to the feast, be it humans or youkai, appears to be very suspicious.

There's only three days left until the next feast. "I'll figure out what this strange aura is coming from and stop it before the next feast!"

妖気が高まろうと、誰一人、繰り返される宴会を止めようとしない。こうなると、宴会に来る人間、妖怪、全員が怪しく見えるのも仕方がないだろう。

Reimu in the Night Parade of One Hundred Oni Every Four Days Incident

Reimu hosts repeated feasts at the Hakurei Shrine, and both humans and youkai who attend find themselves unable to stop celebrating. While preparing for yet another party, she begins to suspect that the strange mist spreading across Gensokyo is connected to what is happening and decides to look into it.

During her investigation she travels across Gensokyo, confronting and defeating several people she believes might be responsible. She first fights Marisa Kirisame and Alice Margatroid in the Forest of Magic, and later Youmu Konpaku, Sakuya Izayoi, and Remilia Scarlet, since the mist reminds her of incidents they were previously involved with. When the day of the next feast arrives, Reimu simply waits for the true culprit to appear. After Reimu defeats her, Yukari Yakumo allows her to meet the real instigator: Suika Ibuki. Following this, Suika takes a liking to the Hakurei Shrine and begins spending much of her time there.

Summer is drawing to a close. Soon, chirping crickets will take over for buzzing cicadas. Gensokyo's hot nights are cooling down, making it a comfortable time for humans and youkai alike.

Times are peaceful as usual. From a human perspective, leastwise.

Touhou Eiyashou (Eternal Night Vignette) ~ Imperishable Night

-1-
There is an old mansion located at the edge of Gensokyo. Its appearance radiates the feeling of its history and a kind of atmosphere that rejects visitors. Items that look as though they might be from the outer world have somehow found their way into this house. Strange machines, books that make no sense, magazines.

One such object, an iron box that was once a television, now serves the role of spiritual storage. "Spirits can live well in something that used to display human shapes," she'd say to her shikigami.

This is the home of Yukari Yakumo, the youkai of boundaries. Ever since becoming aware of a slight abnormality in Gensokyo, she hasn't been able to sleep well, even during the day.

The enemy was yet to be seen, but she was certain that it must have taken someone powerful to pull that off. She doesn't get out often, however, and it will be very bothersome for her to take an action alone.

"Hey, I can rope her in and let her handle this problem."

So she set out for the shrine, another building located at the edge of Gensokyo. There's a human that she knows there.

It's a carefree person who always happens to be bored, so she'll gladly undertake the task of resolving whatever trouble there is.

-2-
It smells ominous. It is said that the forest eats humans. Humans usually maintain a safe distance from it.Its atmosphere constantly brims with an unearthly evil.

The Forest of Magic, a place where all the evil in Gensokyo naturally gathers.

Within that forest, small human figures are gathered into a small building. Human figures smaller than humans.

The rainbow-colored puppeteer, Alice Margatroid, is reading books amidst a mountain of dolls.

"How can humans possibly not be aware of this huge disaster?" "Dunno."

If nothing is done, we won't be able to enjoy that. She isn't the type of person who gets out often, but no one else was interested in the problem, so she set out to investigate for herself.

Or rather, she tried to.

"I don't like this, they're used to this kind of thing, so they should do it." "Yeah, really."

She knew nothing about the enemy and had no idea how to get started. In the end, she decided to visit a human who also lived in the forest, to let her take care of the issue.

She brought a few books along...... Grimoires. Books that any human would find extremely rare and difficult to get ahold of. That person would never be able to refuse such an offer.

-3-
"Sakuya, where are you?"

There is a European mansion located next to a lake; a scarlet mansion. A shrill voice was echoing all through its halls, as usual. Between a lake of glistening white and a forest of verdant green stood a mansion of unyielding scarlet. It should be an awkward sight, but strangely, it's very soothing.

It is said that time stops flowing within this mansion, the Scarlet Devil Mansion. It's not a metaphor.

Remilia Scarlet, a vampire, was looking for her personal maid.

"Have you already done that as I asked?" "I beg your pardon, my Lady, but I couldn't get what actually you meant to..."

Unfortunately, she was apparently unsuccessful at communicating with the human before her.

"Fine! I'll do it myself, Sakuya, so you do daily stu... Well, whatever you want."

Obviously, she had not been ordered to stay home. The maid has no choice but to attend her mistress as a protection charm. "You know that you won't be able to do anything after sunrise," she said in her heart.

It's so peaceful and nothing in particular is happening, so she'll just go back home once the mistress gets tired, the maid thought lightly. Of course, that too was left unspoken.

-4-
No other place in Gensokyo can match the silence of this place. However, it isn't bleak. It has a peaceful atmosphere like a sleeping soul. There is no sign of any disturbance; nature's bounty and refreshing wind is the sole source of sound.

This is the Netherworld, the land of the dead.

There isn't a living human anywhere to be found. The ghosts there, however, enjoy a lively afterlife.

"So, Lady Yuyuko's not aware of this?"

The most vivid and largest place in this quiet world. The Hakugyokurou. Youmu Konpaku, a gardener, was pondering whether to tell her mistress about a most recent incident. At that moment, she found her lady heading toward her. Good timing.

"Ah, Lady Yuyuko..."

"Youmu, are you still ignoring that?"

"Eh? ... What do you mean by 'that'?"

"What, you're not even aware of it? That's why you're ragged about your dullness."

She doesn't remember being ragged, but it seems that her lady was aware of the trouble as well.

"So you were talking about the Moon? I am certainly aware of that. You only said that, and so suddenly..."

"It looks like no one's taking action, so why don't you have a go, Youmu?"

"Ehh, why so?"

"Just kidding. You're too unreliable anyway. That human we saw the other day was better... well, I will do it then."

"No way, please don't be such a meanie... I shall go too."

"I really meant what I said about unreliability, though."

Yuyuko Saigyouji, the ghostly mistress of the Saigyouji family, ragged Youmu.

"Wait, do you have any idea where to go, my Lady?"

"Of course, a lot of them. As we shoot stuff down, we'll eventually find a lead."

"That's where you're wrong, Lady Yuyuko. You rely too much on raw power and have bad aim, so it takes even longer. You should concentrate your attack more, look..."

"Your back is so undefended, Youmu."

Yuyuko was really worried about Youmu going out alone, so she decided to take action by herself.

Since the opponent is powerful enough to cause such a disaster, a team of two wouldn't be a bad idea.

-5-
It was peaceful. Or, it looked peaceful.

However, all youkai were upset.

What's really happening is that, without anyone taking notice, suddenly... The full moon has disappeared from Gensokyo's night.

Even on the night of a supposed full moon, a bit of missing light prevents it from being full. It's no wonder that humans aren't aware of the situation, though; it's only the tiniest bit of difference.

For non-humans, however, a moon that isn't full doesn't function at all. It's an especially critical problem for those who dislike sunlight.

A human and youkai, a team of two, ventured out into Gensokyo's midnight hours to retrieve the missing fragment of the moon and restore the full moon.

They will stop the night if need be, even if it becomes an imperishable night.

—— As summer draws to a close, not much time remains before the harvest moon. The team of human and youkai stop the night.

-E-
A glowing, ancient, virgulate object.

A pile of round objects in the sight.

A small gem. A shining orb. A fragile soul. And the largest sphere.

"How is she doing these days?" she wondered as she stared at these objects.

Time does not flow in this place. History repeats itself.

She, too, was in Gensokyo.

夏の終わり。それは蝉の鳴き声が鈴虫の鳴き音に変ろうとしていた頃の話。ここ幻想郷の暑さも夜になるとすっかり退き、人間にとっても妖怪にとっても快適な季節だった。

いつも通り平和だった。少なくとも、人間達にはそう見えていたのだ。

東方永夜抄　～ Imperishable Night.

－１－
ここは、幻想郷の境に存在する古めかしい屋敷。その歴史を感じさせる佇まいは、如何なる者の来訪をも拒んでいる様だった。この家には何故か人間界の道具と思われるものが幾つか在る。用途のわからない機械、書いてある事がまるで理解できない本、雑誌。

外の世界では映像受信機だったと思われる鉄の箱も、只の霊気入れになっていた。人の形が映っていた物には霊も宿りやすいのよと、彼女は自分の式神に教える。

境界の妖怪『八雲紫（やくもゆかり）』はここに居た。彼女は、幻想郷の僅かな異変に気付き、昼も寝れない毎日を過ごしていた。

敵の姿は確認取れなかったが、『こんな』事が出来ると言う事はかなりの強力な者であると想像できた。しかし、普段余り出歩かない彼女にとって自分から動く事は、凄く面倒な事だったのだ。

　「そうだ、『あいつ』を唆して『あいつ』にやらせれば良いわ」

こうして紫は、同じく幻想郷の境に存在する神社を目指して出かけた。そこに一人の知り合いの人間がいる。

その人間は、いつでも呑気で退屈しているはずである。どんな仕事でも必ず引き受けるに違いない。

－２－
不吉な臭いがする。この森は人を喰うといわれる。人間は余り寄り付かない場所である。常に禍々しい妖気で溢れていた。

魔法の森、幻想郷の魔が自ずと集まった森。

その森に、小さな人の形を集めた小さな建物がある。人間より一回りも小さい人の形。

七色の人形遣い『アリス・マーガトロイド』は、人形の山の中で読書をしていた。

　「何であいつら人間達はこの大異変に気がつかないのかしら」　「ねぇ？」

このままではいつものアレが楽しめないじゃない。普段は余り出歩くことの無い彼女だったがみんな異変に無関心だった為、調査に乗り出てみる事にした。

いや、しようかと思った。

　「面倒だなぁ、こういうのに慣れている『あいつら』がやればいいのに」　「ほんとほんと」

敵の見当もつかないし、どうすればよいのかわからない。思いあぐねて、同じくこの森に住む人間の処へ向う事にした。

手には数冊の本……。人間が滅多に手にする事が無い本。グリモワールである。これでその人間が動かない道理は無い。

－３－
　「咲夜～、どこに居るの～？」

ここは湖のほとりにある洋館、紅い建物。今日もけたたましい声が響く。湖の白と森の緑、そこに建つ紅い洋館。どぎつい取り合わせのはずなのに不思議と落ち着いていた。

この館、紅魔館は時が止まると言う。比喩ではない。

吸血鬼『レミリア・スカーレット』は、自分のお抱えのメイドを探していた。

　「頼んでいたアレはやっておいた？」　「と言われましても、申し訳ないのですが私には良く判らないもので……」

どうにも、目の前の人間には言葉が通じない。

　「もういいわ！私が行くから咲夜は家の事を… 　　まぁ、好きな様にやって」

留守番を命じていない事は明白だった。結局メイドはお守り役として付いて行かざるを得ない。日が昇ったら一人じゃ自由が効かない癖に、と思いつつ……

こんなに平和だし何か起きている様にも見えないし、ちょっと動いたら疲れて戻ってくるでしょう、とメイドは軽く思っていた。もちろん口には出せない。

－４－
幻想郷でもここ程静かな場所も無いだろう。ただ、荒涼としているわけではない。何か魂が休まるような静かさなのだ。荒ぶる者の声も聞こえない、豊かな自然に爽やかな風の音だけが聞こえる。

冥府。死者の住まう処。

ここには生気のある人間は居ない。だが、亡霊達は亡霊のくせに生き生きと暮らしていた。

　「幽々子様は気が付いていないのかしら？」

静かな場所の中で一番華やかで広い所。白玉楼。庭師『魂魄妖夢（こんぱくようむ）』はお嬢様に異変を伝えようか迷っていた。その時、お嬢様がこっちに向ってきた。丁度いい。

　「あ、幽々子様……。」

　「妖夢。アレはまだそのままかしら？」

　「え？……アレ、とは何でしょう？」

　「あら、気が付いていないの？　　これだから庭師は鈍感だって、ぼろくそに言われるのよ」

ぼろくそに言われた記憶は無いが、どうやらお嬢様も異変に気が付いていたらしい。

　「もしかして『月』の事ですか？　気が付いてますってば～。　　突然、アレって言われましても……」

　「誰も動かないみたいだし、妖夢、行ってみない？」

　「えー？何でですか」

　「嘘よ。妖夢じゃ頼りないしね。　　何時ぞやの人間の方がまだマシだし……、私が行くわ」

　「そんな～、意地悪な事言わないで下さいよ～。私が行きますから～」

　「頼りないと言ったのは本当よ」

西行寺家の亡霊少女『西行寺幽々子（さいぎょうじゆゆこ）』は、妖夢の事をぼろくそに言った。

　「って、お嬢様は目的地の当てがあるのですか？」

　「勿論沢山あるわ。まぁそんなのその辺飛んでいるの落とせばいつか当たるものよ。」

　「そんなだから駄目なのです。　　幽々子様はいつだって、力に任せて狙いを定めないから時間が掛かるのです。　　もっと、的を絞って攻撃するのですよ。こう……」

　「妖夢、後ろががら空きよ。」

幽々子は、本当に妖夢だけでは不安を感じていた。だから、自ら動く事にしたのだ。

この異変を起こせるだけの者相手なら、二人でも良いだろう。

平和だった。平和そうに見えた。

だが、妖怪達は困っていたのだ。

そう異変とは、誰も気が付かない内にひっそりと、何時の間にか……、幻想郷の夜から満月が無くなっていたのだった。

本来、満月になるはずの夜もほんの少しだけ月が欠けていて、完全な満月にならなかったのである。普通の人間が気がつかないのは無理も無い、月はほんのちょっとだけ欠けていたに過ぎなかったのだ。

それでも妖の者にとって、満月の無い月はまるで月の機能を果たして居なかったのである。特に日の光が苦手な者にとっては死活問題であった。

人間と妖怪の二人は夜の幻想郷を翔け出した勿論、月の欠片を探し出し、幻想郷の満月を取り返す為である。

見つけるまで夜を止めてでも永遠の夜になったとしても

――夏の終わり、中秋の名月まであまり時間も無い頃。　　人間と妖怪の二人は、夜を止める。

光に輝く太古の棒状の物。

~ Imperishable Night Prologue Japanese

Reimu in the Eternal Night Incident

Yukari finds herself unable to sleep and notices that the real full moon has disappeared, replaced by an imitation while the night seems unnaturally prolonged. She persuades Reimu to work with her to uncover the cause. Along the way they confront several youkai, including Marisa Kirisame, who suspects them of being responsible for the endless night and demands an explanation. Their search leads them to Eientei, hidden within the Bamboo Forest of the Lost, where they eventually face Reisen Udongein Inaba and then either Eirin Yagokoro or Kaguya Houraisan.

Eirin reveals that she created a barrier separating Earth from the Moon to stop the Lunarians from reclaiming Kaguya. Kaguya, no longer interested in staying hidden, challenges Reimu and Yukari to complete five impossible tasks. After the challenges are overcome, the barrier is removed and the true moon is restored, followed by everyone gathering for moon viewing.

In the Magic and Scarlet Team routes, Reimu attacks the teams in the Bamboo Forest of the Lost, assuming they caused the endless night and even accusing the Magic Team of fabricating the false moon.

Later, Kaguya sends them deeper into the Bamboo Forest as a “test of courage,” which is ultimately meant to irritate Fujiwara no Mokou, another immortal human and her long-standing rival.

—— Gensokyo has revived.

Spring’s sunlight has dyed the white of winter, and Gensokyo has completely regained the colors of life. The colors that had slept during winter awoke, covering Gensokyo. The flowers and the fairies simultaneously became noisy. The season’s unusual beauty has caused a stir in all who live in Gensokyo.

The girls quickly become aware of the strangeness.

Cherry blossoms, sunflowers, chrysanthemums, Chinese bellflowers... It was only spring, yet flowers of every season had simultaneously started to bloom. Many humans and all of the fairies, accepting that as the present from nature, were in high spirits for a while. However, the most laid-back human in Gensokyo unusually got rattled.

"I must resolve this straightforward incident. If not, it’s like saying to everyone that I’m shirking my duties!"

As always, aimlessly following her intuition, she flew out of her Shinto Shrine.

Gensokyo itself has revived. The girls were also part of nature. The force of the fairies was nature’s force. Everyone knew that it's unable to deny nature.

Reimu, typically relaxed about most situations, becomes concerned when flowers begin blooming excessively throughout Gensokyo. Determined not to ignore her responsibilities, she sets out to uncover the cause. Along the way, she confronts various individuals, including the reporter Aya Shameimaru, while trying to find answers.

Her investigation eventually leads her to Muenzuka, where she encounters Komachi Onozuka, a shinigami who has been neglecting her duties involving the management of spirits. After Reimu defeats Komachi, Eiki Shiki, Yamaxanadu appears and explains the situation: an unusually large number of souls from the Human World have arrived at once, overwhelming the system meant to guide them. Following Eiki’s lecture, they fight, and Reimu wins.

Later, Reimu, Komachi, and Eiki hold a flower viewing, where it is clarified that once the spirits successfully cross the Sanzu River, the abnormal flower blooming will gradually come to an end.

Mountain of Faith

“

The Hakurei Shrine. A dilapidated shrine on the eastern border of Gensokyo.

It's always bustling with non-human activity, as if it were a shelter for itinerant youkai. Naturally, humans do not to visit a shrine with so many youkai, and with the people's declining belief, the patron god of the shrine was worried.

And so, the shrine reached a turning point.

Reimu Hakurei, the shrine maiden, was worried.

Reimu "How can I kick these youkai out...? How can I gather faith from humans...?"

??? "Oho. Those dangos look really good."

Reimu "Ah, Marisa. Yeah."

Marisa "Something on your mind?"

Reimu "A strange visitor came by a little while ago."

Marisa "That's all this shrine ever gets, anyway."

A god's power stems from people's faith in it.

The seldom-visited Hakurei Shrine god's power had steadily diminished, until the myriad god colleagues unanimously agreed in a conference that they could not ignore this matter any further.

Even though it was said Gensokyo could only have one shrine, compared to the numerous gods of the outside world, belief in the Hakurei Shrine's god was on the decline, and its status was falling.

Reimu "Youkai are strange visitors, too. But this time, it was a strange human."

Marisa "What, a human visitor? Those are really rare."

Reimu "To suddenly order me to shut down the shrine."

Marisa "Huh, you mean the shrine's been open...?"

Aside from its role as a dwelling for its patron god, the Hakurei Shrine serves an important purpose for Gensokyo. So, no matter how much faith its devotees lose, Reimu knew that it couldn't be allowed to close down. That important purpose is to watch over the boundary that separates Gensokyo from the outside world, but...

Marisa "Close down the shrine... what a weird thing to say. What would happen to it after that?"

Reimu "It'd get torn down, or the god on the top of the mountain would take it over."

Marisa "Hmm. That's even weirder."

Reimu "I don't know the person who came here, but... No matter how you look at it, isn't that a weird thing for a god to say?"

Marisa "Yeah... Well that person was kinda interesting, but...

What are you going to do about it?

You aren't gonna take them at their word and turn the shrine over to this mystery god, are you?"

Reimu "If the god on the mountain could gather more faith, maybe that could really happen. They could chase out the youkai, and it'd feel more like a shrine, right?"

Marisa "Hmm. Even if you change out the god in the shrine, I think you'd still have about as much influence."

Reimu "But, you know, this is just too suspicious.

Chasing out the shrine's original god and then taking it over is just weird. That human seemed pretty powerful, but... I've never seen her before.

It must have been a youkai in some kind of disguise, or some sort of evil god!"

Deeply troubled, Reimu decided to go meet with the god that was said to live atop the mountain.

Reimu had originally been avoiding ascending the mountain, but as she thought about the declining belief in the shrine, she decided to earnestly tackle the problem.

She never thought that this would lead to a battle.

Light courses through the heavens. The sound of machinery echoes in the distance. Perhaps the tengu's factories have awoken.

This is a world the humans from the village could never enter.

A building constructed of wood. The out-of-season call of a frog. The cast-off skins of countless snakes.

She was there. She had always been there. There, with a single human.

　　博麗神社。幻想郷の東の境界にある寂れた神社である。

　　里居を忘れた妖怪がここを寝床にしているかの様に、いつも人間以外の　生き物で賑やかであった。　　妖怪の多い神社に人間の参拝客など居る筈もなく、神社におわす神様は　信仰心不足に悩んでいた。

　　そんな神社にも転機が訪れたのである。

　　神社の巫女、博麗霊夢（はくれいれいむ）は、悩んでいた。

　　　霊夢　「どうしたら妖怪達を追い返せるのかなぁ。　　　　　　　どうしたら人間の信仰を集める事が出来るのかなぁ」

　　　？？？「おう。美味しそうな団子だな」

　　　霊夢　「あ、魔理沙。　　　　　　　うーん」

　　　魔理沙「悩み事か？」

　　　霊夢　「この間、ちょっと変な来客があってねぇ」

　　　魔理沙「この神社、変な来客だらけじゃないか」

　　神様は自分に対しての信仰心が力となる。

　　参拝客の少ない博麗神社は、その力を徐々に落とし、今では八百万はい　ると言われる神様同士の会合で意見が無視されてしまう程である。

　　幻想郷には神社は一つしか無いと言われているが、外の世界に幾つも神　社を構えている神様に比べると信仰心不足なのは否めず、博麗神社の地位　は下がる一方であった。

　　　霊夢　「妖怪も変な来客だけどさ。　　　　　　　この間、変な人間が来てさぁ」

　　　魔理沙「人間の来客？　それはまた珍しいな」

　　　霊夢　「そいつに神社の営業停止命令を出されてね」

　　　魔理沙「って、この神社は営業してたのか……」

　　博麗神社は、神様の住処としての役割の他に、幻想郷には無くてはなら　ない役割がある。その為霊夢は、どんなに信仰心を失ってしまっても、営　業停止はあり得ない事だと鷹を括っていた。　　無くてはならない役割とは、幻想郷と外の世界を隔てる境界を守る事で　あるのだが……。

　　　魔理沙「神社が営業停止か、おかしな話だな。　　　　　　　それで停止後の神社はどうしろと？」

　　　霊夢　「潰してしまうか、それか、山の上におわす神様に譲渡しろって」

　　　魔理沙「うーん。二重に妙だな」

　　　　　　　それも有りなのかなぁと。

　　　　　　　妖怪も追い返せるし、何より神社らしくなるでしょう？」

　　　魔理沙「そうか。　　　　　　　神社にいる神様が変っても、霊夢にとっては余り影響はないのか」

　　　霊夢　「ただねぇ。どう考えてもその話は胡散臭いわ。

　　　　　　　元から居る神様を追いだして、乗っ取ろうとするなんておかしい。　　　　　　　その人間だって、力はありそうだったけど……全く見た事ない　　　　　　　顔だったし。

　　　　　　　絶対に妖怪かなんかの偽物か、邪神かなんかよ！」

　　山に立ち入る事は意図的に避けてきた霊夢だが、いよいよ持って信仰心の　失われた神社の事も真面目に考えようと思い、一大決心をしたのである。

　　この時はまだ、戦う事になるとは思ってもいなかったのだ。

~ Mountain of Faith Prologue Japanese

Reimu is confronted by an unfamiliar shrine maiden, Sanae Kochiya, who arrives with a warning that the Hakurei Shrine should close and instead devote itself to another deity. Refusing to accept this, Reimu heads toward Youkai Mountain to confront whoever is behind the threat. As she ascends the mountain, she battles several youkai along the way, including the Aki Sisters, Hina Kagiyama, Nitori Kawashiro, and Aya Shameimaru. Reimu eventually reaches the Moriya Shrine, where she defeats Sanae and the resident goddess, Kanako Yasaka, protecting her own shrine in the process.

Afterwards, Reimu gathers everyone at her shrine to view the autumn scenery. She speaks up on behalf of Sanae and Kanako and encourages others, such as Nitori and Aya, to get along with them and share drinks sometime. Sanae also remarks that youkai can actually serve as a valuable source of faith.

Later on, after hearing from Marisa that another deity may be present at the Moriya Shrine, Reimu returns to investigate. There she encounters Suwako Moriya and defeats her as well.

Scarlet Weather Rhapsody

“

Almost a year has passed since the shrine maiden went to the mountain.

The Hakurei Shrine's crisis was averted without incident, and a sweltering summer has visited the shrine as usual.

However, the shrine maiden has been afflicted with an unusual continuing drought.

Even during sudden cloudbursts, almost no rain would fall on the shrine. But that's not all - rain continues unabated over the forest, and at the mansion that's usually hidden behind thick mists, snow falls out of season...

It was an amazing incident of abnormal weather.

Nobody had any idea what was behind the strange weather. But, it was obvious with a glance at the big picture ...

The one plagued by incessant sun, the one under a deluge of constant rain, the one enveloped in deep mist ...

Yes, their strange weather only continued around them, personally.

But the real crisis would probably start once the strange weather patterns collided. That glimpse of the weather crisis' true nature signaled the start of the incident's resolution in a manner that resounded across the land.

-- A great earthquake strong enough to reduce the shrine to ruins.

Nobody knew why she was the only one to feel its effects,

but it was enough to send the shrine maiden out to find the cause of the incident.

Reimu’s shrine is suddenly leveled by an apparent earthquake, but after speaking with Marisa she learns that nobody else experienced any tremors. Realizing something abnormal is happening, Reimu begins investigating and confronts several individuals she suspects along the way, including Komachi Onozuka. Since Komachi is not responsible, Reimu continues upward until she reaches Heaven, where she encounters Iku Nagae and the celestial Tenshi Hinanawi.

Tenshi admits that she caused the entire situation out of boredom, wanting to create an incident of her own after watching so many others unfold. She also states that she destroyed the Hakurei Shrine specifically to push Reimu into acting. Reimu defeats Tenshi and settles the incident, after which Tenshi arranges for a group of celestials to assist in rebuilding the shrine.

Subterranean Animism

“

Snow falls on the Hakurei Shrine in winter.

It had been destroyed by an earthquake before, but now it's back to normal.

One day, something happened to surprise the Hakurei Shrine's shrine maiden, Reimu Hakurei. That was the sudden appearance of a white pillar shooting into the air - a geyser - near the shrine grounds.

Normally, when something unusual happens, she goes to find out what happened and quickly bring the matter to a close, but this made her happy as much as it surprised her. After all, the geyser would melt the snow and become a hot spring that would ease the fatigue of both humans and youkai from nearby.

Marisa "... isn't it dangerous to get too close to a geyser?"

Reimu　"It could attract visitors to the shrine, so who cares?" If a hot spring comes up then even villagers will come here, mark my words."

Marisa "Yeah, for the hot spring."

However, Reimu's hopeful observations were off the mark. The geyser spewed forth more than just water for a hot spring.

One by one a series of grotesque characters appeared. Earth spirits - denizens of the deep underground.

Confused, the two girls wondered what to do about the geyser, so they decided to build a hot spring. In fact, the earth spirits were quiet and kept to themselves. Most of them were simply ghosts who had finally been relieved of their ties to this world and allowed to pass on. In Gensokyo, where youkai and phantoms ran rampant as a matter of course, the appearance of a few earth spirits didn't seem like such a big deal.

However, that decision by the shrine maiden bought the youkai's unhappiness. There was a secret behind the appearance of the earth spirits about which Reimu and Marisa didn't have the slightest inkling of knowledge.

—— The Scarlet Devil Manor
The magician that lived in the Scarlet Devil Manor, Patchouli Knowledge, sensed danger in the appearance of youkai and earth spirits from underground. In her readings, she'd learned that somewhere slept a power that was uncontrollable by the likes of the youkai from above ground. She also knew that youkai shouldn't easily be able to enter the city that lay in the depths.

However, there was almost no-one she could consult with regarding this problem. Losing her temper with Reimu and company, she grudgingly decided to consult with the youkai who was said to have been in Gensokyo the longest.

This old youkai, Yukari Yakumo, wanted the youkai to refrain from interfering in the affairs of the underground world.

Yukari "The underground world has different arrangements, so we can't act too overtly."

Pache　"Well, the humans aren't going to do anything. At this rate we'll lose our initiative; is that what you want?"

Yukari "Hm, that's true... I suppose I have no choice, I can't let you all just do whatever you want again."

Pache　"What do you mean, again... ? In any case, will you do something? You seem to know something about the underground."

Yukari "No, I can't do anything. Only humans can go to the underground. Besides, this might be a trap to draw us in."

Yukari promised only to send Reimu to investigate, with youkai staying behind to act in a support role.

—— The sealed youkai awoke together with the violent geyser. The memories of the earth began to awaken, and Gensokyo would probably regress into an older period from its history.

The youkai of the underground were cast into the depths because of their abominable powers. It couldn't be a fortuitous thing for humans or youkai if they were to appear again.

The snow, slowly shining. The palace, surrounded by beautiful colors.

She was there.

雪の降る冬の博麗神社。

　一度地震により倒壊した神社であったが、今はすっかり元の姿を取り戻している。

　そんなある日、博麗神社の巫女、博麗霊夢を驚かす出来事が起こった。　それは博麗神社の近所に突然の立ち上る白い柱、間欠泉である。

　普段なら何か出来事が起こると彼女は解決に向かうのだが、その出来事は彼女を　驚かすと同時に喜ばす物だったのだ。　間欠泉は雪を溶かし、周りには人間、妖怪問わず体の疲れを癒す温泉が湧く筈だった。

　　魔理沙「……間欠泉って近寄って危なくないのか？」

　　霊夢　「神社にお客を呼べるチャンスなんだから、お客が多少危険でも良いのよ。　　　　　　温泉が湧けば里の人間だって参拝に来るに違いない」

　　魔理沙「温泉目当てだけどな」

しかし、霊夢の希望的観測は外れた。　間欠泉から湧いている物は温泉水だけでは無かったのだ。

　次々とわき出る異形の者達。地霊――地底に住む者達であった。

　慌てた彼女達は間欠泉をどうするべきか悩んだ結果、温泉を取る事にした。　事実、地霊達は大人しかった。地霊といっても、主に地縛霊が変化した物である。　妖怪や幽霊が跋扈する幻想郷、今更、地霊達が出てきたところで大した影響は無いと　考えたのだ。

　しかし、その巫女の判断は妖怪達の不満を買った。　地霊の出現には霊夢達は知るよしもない秘密があったのだ。

　――紅魔館
　紅魔館に住む魔法使い、パチュリー・ノーレッジは地下の妖怪や地霊達が表に出てく　る事に危険を感じていた。　彼女は、地上の妖怪には手に負えない力が眠っている事を本を通じて識っていた。　妖怪が容易に地底の街へ立ち入ってはいけない事も識っていた。

　しかし、彼女には周りに相談できる人物も殆どいない。　なかなか霊夢達が動かない事に業を煮やし、嫌々だが幻想郷でも最も古くからいると　される妖怪に相談をする事にした。

　古い妖怪――八雲紫（やくもゆかり）は妖怪が地底界へ干渉する事は控えたいとしていた。

　　紫　　『地底界には別の＜仕組み＞があるのだから、余り派手に動いてはいけない』

　　パチェ『人間達が動かないしこのままでは後手になってしまうけど、それでも良いのかしら』

　　紫　　『そうねぇ……しょうがないわ、貴方達に＜また＞勝手に動かれたら面倒だしね』

　　パチェ『またって何の話なのか……それは置いておいて、取り敢えず貴方が動いてくれる？　　　　　　地底の事知ってそうだし』

　　紫　　『いいえ、私達は動きません。地底に潜るのは人間だけです。　　　　　　これは私達をおびき寄せる罠……かも知れないですから』

　紫はそう言って霊夢達を送り出す事だけは約束し、妖怪は地上からサポート役にまわる様にした。

　――封印された妖怪達は、激しい間欠泉と共に目覚めた。　　　大地の記憶が次々と具現化し、まもなく幻想郷は古い歴史の時代へ逆戻りするだろう。

　　　地底の妖怪達は忌み嫌われた能力を持っていたが為に地底に落とされたのだ。　　　その妖怪達が出てくる事は、人間にとっても妖怪にとっても望ましい事ではなかった。

A geyser erupts behind the Hakurei Shrine, and Reimu is initially pleased, thinking the heat will help with the lingering winter cold. Before long, however, large numbers of evil spirits begin emerging from underground and drifting throughout Gensokyo. Reimu is asked to investigate and sets out accompanied by either Yukari Yakumo, Suika Ibuki, or Aya Shameimaru, depending on the situation, communicating with them through her Yin-Yang Orbs during the journey.

She travels directly to the Underworld and continues descending, defeating those who stand in her way until she arrives at the Palace of the Earth Spirits. There she meets Satori Komeiji, whose pets appear to be involved in the incident. Reimu defeats Rin Kaenbyou and eventually confronts Utsuho Reiuji, who has obtained new abilities and is using them to sustain the underground hellfire, unintentionally causing the geysers that allow the evil spirits to escape to the surface. After defeating Utsuho, Reimu returns above ground. Rin begins showing up at the shrine regularly, mostly for food, and the geyser is eventually turned into a hot spring.

Utsuho later explains how she gained her power, leading suspicion toward Kanako Yasaka and Suwako Moriya. Reimu heads once more to Youkai Mountain to find answers. Upon arriving, she encounters Koishi Komeiji, who is also searching for the source of Utsuho’s power. After a skirmish, Suwako appears and explains that everything is connected to their planned “industrial revolution project.”

Undefined Fantastic Object

The masses began to awaken from the muddy earth covered in ice.

The bit of snow that had covered Gensokyo had sealed away the earth spirits that had awakened in the winter, and was still enough to slow the movements of the fairies once more. But soon, this gentle season of sleep, too, would come to an end.

The Hakurei Shrine. A shrine that stood on a plot of land removed some ways from the Human Village. The Hakurei Shrine's shrine maiden, Reimu Hakurei, heard an unusual rumor from a magician living in the forest. The rumor was of sightings of a strange ship being seen through breaks in the clouds, flying through the sky. People said the ship seemed to be going back and forth, like it was searching for something.

Marisa "...they say that ship is the treasure ship of the Seven Gods of Luck, so if you can catch it you'll live free for the rest of your life. So they say it's trying to run away from greedy people."

Reimu "Do you really believe that kind of stupid rumor?"

The magician that lived in the forest, Marisa Kirisame, frowned at her.

Marisa "Of course not, what are you talking about? If it were true, you'd be able to see it really easily from the shrine."

Reimu "A treasure ship, huh?"

Marisa "Rumors like this keep popping up ever since the harvests failed last year of summer thanks to that weird weather we had. People wanna leave their troubles to the gods, or at least to someone else."

Reimu "A treasure ship... one of the world's mysteries, loaded up with jewels and precious metals."

Marisa "That's right. They say the Seven Gods of Luck ride in it, too."

Reimu "A treasure ship..."

Marisa "Umm..."

Reimu and Marisa's conversation was suddenly interrupted there. Where there's smoke, there's fire. Someone who saw something strange floating in the sky would probably end up spreading rumors about a treasure ship, whether there really was one or not. It seemed the two weren't going to learn anything else from each other at this rate. What broke their silence was a visitor from the mountain.

Sanae "Well, that's strange. I can't believe you're still here."

It was Sanae Kochiya, the human who had appeared on the mountain recently.

Reimu "Well, fancy seeing you down here. You want something?"

Sanae "Well, nothing terribly important...

Haven't you found that ship flying in the sky yet, Miss Reimu?

I was sure you would have already started looking for it."

Reimu and Marisa exchanged a look.

Reimu "A ship flying through the sky!?"

Sanae "I've been looking for it myself, so I was trying to see if anyone knew anything about it..."

Reimu "Huh? Wait a..." Marisa "You mean the stories about that flying ship were true?"

Sanae "Huh? You didn't know? But it's so eye-catching..."

Wondering why the other two were still so surprised, Sanae pointed her finger to the sky.

Reimu and Marisa followed her lead and looked upwards. Up in the skies, a great, black shadow, the likes of which they'd never seen before, seemed just about to disappear behind a break in the clouds. The blue of the sky seemed to be weakened by the ship's shadow, and the clouds seemed to turn a purple color.

—— Inside, it was completely deserted. Its various treasures had been lost long ago, and the only thing left was the smell of eight hundred years of mold. That moldy smell couldn't be blown away by only the cold winds of spring. However, even if its ally's remaining jewels were split into pieces, they probably wouldn't lose their power. If you could find all of those pieces, then perhaps...

~ Undefined Fantastic Object Prologue Japanese

A treasure ship is seen flying over Gensokyo, and Reimu decides to pursue it. She boards the ship and fights her way through Nazrin, Kogasa Tatara, and Ichirin Kumoi, only to find that the ship contains no actual treasure. Minamitsu Murasa then explains that their destination is Makai, where they intend to revive a certain “saint.” Reimu follows them there, encounters Shou Toramaru, and finally meets the revived figure, the Buddhist monk Byakuren Hijiri. Since Byakuren values humans and youkai equally, something Reimu disagrees with, Reimu defeats her in battle. Later, Reimu and Byakuren fly together on the ship for a time, after which the ship is brought down and later remodeled into the Myouren Temple.

While Reimu and Sanae Kochiya are at the Hakurei Shrine, Marisa arrives and mentions that the strange fragments that have appeared keep changing shape and that even Byakuren is unsure of their nature. Reimu follows a snake that emerges from one of the fragments and encounters Nue Houjuu, who explains what the UFO-like fragments truly are and then decides to affiliate herself with the Myouren Temple.

Ten Desires

“

The Hakurei Shrine, a shrine far away from the Human Village.

The black and white world that once froze the earth was over, and Gensokyo was now regaining its natural beauty. It is a spring in which divine spirits dance with the cherry blossoms.

Reimu "Well at least the cherry blossoms are pretty..."

Marisa "Aren't the pretty cherry blossoms good enough?"

There is no living creature in Gensokyo that doesn't enjoy watching the cherry blossoms. Both Reimu Hakurei and Marisa Kirisame are two of such of creatures.

Reimu "...But I have a bad feeling about this."

Marisa "What a coincidence. Me too."

The cherry blossoms continued to fall relentlessly. If you miss this opportunity, there will be no chances for flower viewing until the season of the wisteria flowers. Even so, neither was in the mood for a party under the cherry trees.

Why indeed?

It is because unknown floating spirits would appear and disappear.

Reimu "Wasn't there a spring when everything was full of ghosts like these?"

Marisa "Yeah, but I don't think we could go flower viewing that time. 'Cause there was hardly any spring."

Reimu "Oh yeah. That time, it was the work of those from the Netherworld."

Marisa "Yeah, anything involving phantoms is certainly their work."

Reimu "Exactly. Putting it like that keeps things so much simpler."

But it was clear that the unknown floating spirits weren't ghosts or earth spirits that came to the surface recently.

They were divine spirits, the souls of the soon-to-be gods.

Typically, many divine spirits make the shrine their home, but actually these ethereal spirits could live just about anywhere. Such divine spirits were troubling the girls.

Marisa "If things go on like this, we won't be able to go flower viewing tomorrow. All right, then!"

Reimu "All right?"

Marisa "Oh, hm. It's nothing. Yeah, I wonder what these strange spirits are?"

Reimu "Guess I'll do something about it... I'll have to investigate why these guys appeared in the first place."

"There's no time like the present". Both of them set out to investigate, each looking to be the first one to solve the incident. They set out that very night.

—— Meanwhile, the phenomenon had also manifested at the mountain shrine.

At the Moriya Shrine on Youkai Mountain, the strange spirits were also appearing near the shrine maiden, Sanae Kochiya.

Sanae thought it was strange, but noticed that they were not phantoms.

These spirits were divine spirits. They were beings of the same nature as Lady Kanako and Lady Suwako.

Divine spirits are born from intense human emotions such as greed and fear. Divine spirits rarely cause direct harm to humans, but they would not be born without a desire strong enough to cause it. For example, prayers for a great harvest, or protection from misfortune...

Sanae decided she could use this opportunity. Gathering divine spirits is the same thing as collecting human desires. It is equivalent to gathering faith.

But she could not figure out why divine spirits began forming everywhere. She hasn't seen such a strong desire that was swirling over Gensokyo.

Sanae decided to investigate the cause.

—— The world after death. The Netherworld.

The incident was also happening in the Netherworld. A different kind of spirit had begun appearing among the phantoms. Well, to be exact, the divine spirits were appearing continuously from the ghosts only to disappear, appear and disappear, over and over.

Youmu Konpaku, the gardener of the Netherworld, was baffled. Naturally, she felt divine spirits being born from her own body as well.

The divine spirit were fleeting things that disappeared almost instantly, but she could feel their faint wills. That is, if newborn divine spirits could be said to have wills in the first place. It might have been something like a newborn plant instinctively bending towards the sun, but a half-human, half-phantom like herself could feel it.

They were headed in the direction of the human village.

Once she considered it, she saw that the Human Village seemed to be emanating a faint glow.

Youmu "I get it now. The divine spirits are not only born from me, but from all living things."

She then suspended her gardening work and decided to investigate without delay, but....

—— The divine spirits seemed to be looking for one who would accept them.

Within the dark, earthy mausoleum... The faint light of the spirits illuminated their surroundings, but were soon swallowed by the darkness, unable to bring the whole story to light.

At that point, the divine spirits understood. Each one of our desires, like earning a lot and not wanting to get hit by danmaku, much less wanting to use a spell card... one who would accept such small desires exists only within a fantasy. Such desires do not naturally come to fruition without one's own effort.

Even so, hanging on to their one ray of hope, the divine spirits made their way through the darkness with all their heart and soul. And, without knowing the reason for their own birth, they returned to nothingness.

They perished, unaware that someone was watching them and chuckling.

As her resurrection drew near, she began to smile— And she vowed her vengeance.

博麗神社。人里離れた辺境の地に建つ神社である。

大地を凍らせた白黒の世界は終わり、幻想郷は本来の美しさを取り戻そうとしていた。桜と共に神霊が舞う春であった。

　霊夢　「桜は綺麗なんだけどねぇ」

　魔理沙「桜が綺麗なら良いじゃないか」

桜が咲けばそれを楽しまない生き物など幻想郷にはいない。博麗霊夢と霧雨魔理沙の二人も、その生き物であった。

　霊夢　「でも何か嫌な予感がするんだよねぇ」

　魔理沙「奇遇だな。私もだ」

桜は容赦無く散り続ける。この機会を逃せば次は藤の花まで花見出来ないかもしれない。それでも二人は桜の木の元で宴会する気になっていない。

何故か。

それは正体不明の霊が漂っては消えたりしていたからだ。

　霊夢　「何か、前にこんな幽霊だらけの春があったよね」

　魔理沙「ああ、でもあの時は花見できなかった気がするぜ。　　　　　春が殆ど無かったからな」

　霊夢　「そうねぇ、あの時は冥界の奴らの所為だったんだよねぇ」

　魔理沙　「そうだ、霊が絡む事はみんなあいつらの所為だもんな」

　霊夢　「そうそう、そういう事にしておけば問題ないもんね」

現在漂っている正体不明の霊、それはただの幽霊や、最近現れた地霊ではない事は明白であった。

それは神霊。神様になる筈の霊である。

一般的に神霊は神社を住処とする事が多いが、実は何処にでも住む実態のない霊である。その神霊が彼女達を悩ませているのであった。

　魔理沙　「こんなんじゃ明日、花見できないな。　　　　　よし」

　霊夢　「よし？」

　魔理沙　「あ、ん。何でも無いぜ。　　　　　何だろうな、この不思議な霊は」

　霊夢　「なんとかするかー。　　　　　こいつ等が現れた原因を調べないとね」

思い立ったが吉日。二人は我先にと調査に出かけた。その夜のうちに。

―― 一方、山の神社にも異変が起きていた。

妖怪の山にある守矢神社、ここの巫女さん、東風谷早苗の元にも奇妙な霊が現れていた。

早苗は不思議に思ったが、それは幽霊などではない事に気付いた。

その霊は神霊。神奈子様とか諏訪子様とかと同じ性質の物であった。

神霊が生まれる原因は、非常に強い人間の欲や想い、恐怖、感情である。本来、神霊が直接人間に危害を与える事は少ないが、何らかの強い欲がなければ生まれない筈だ。例えば、豊穣祈願や厄除けといった……。

早苗はこれは使える、と判断した。神霊を集める事は人間の欲を集める事と同じ。それは信仰を集める事と同じなのだ。

しかし、何故突然神霊があちこちで生まれるようになったのか判らない。そんな強い欲が幻想郷を渦巻いているようにも見えない。

早苗はその原因を探ることにした。

―― 死後の世界。冥界。

冥界にも異変は現れていた。幽霊に紛れて別の霊が現れていたのだ。いや、正確に言うと、幽霊からも次々と神霊が現れては消え、消えては現れを繰り返してた。

冥界の庭師、魂魄妖夢は困惑していた。彼女も当然、自分の体からも神霊が生まれているのを感じていた。

その神霊はすぐに消えてしまう儚い物であったが、僅かに意思を感じる事が出来た。いや、生まれたばかりの神霊に意思などあるのだろうか。芽生えたばかりの植物が持つ向光性の様な物だろうが、半分人間、半分幽霊の彼女には感じ取ることが出来た。

その向かう先は人間の里がある方面。

そう思ったとき、人間の里の方面がぼやーっと明るくなっているように見えた。

　妖夢　「そうか。　　　　　神霊が生まれているのは私からだけではなく、全ての生き物から生まれているのね」

庭の手入れを中断し早速調査に出かける事にした、のだが……。

―― 神霊は自分を受け入れてくれる人を求めているようだった。

暗くて土くさい霊廟の中。霊達の幽かな灯りが辺りを照らすが、すぐに闇に吸収され、全容を明るみにさらす事が出来ない。

そこで神霊は悟るのだった。我々個々人の、稼ぎたいとか弾幕に当りたくないとか、ましてやスペルカードを使いたいとか、そんな小さな欲を聞き入れる者など幻想だと。その程度の欲は結局自らの努力無しには成就されないと。

それでも一縷の望みをかけて神霊は一心不乱に闇を進む。そうして自分が生まれた原因も掴めぬまま、無に帰すのだ。

その様子を見てほくそ笑む者がいた事に気付かぬまま果てるのだ。

復活が近いことに笑みを浮かべ―― そして復讐を誓った。

~ Ten Desires Prologue Japanese

During a flower-viewing season, numerous divine spirits begin to manifest, disrupting the event, prompting Reimu to investigate their origin. She first travels to the Netherworld and confirms that Yuyuko Saigyouji is not responsible, after which she is directed toward the Myouren Temple. Forcing her way into its graveyard and defeating Kyouko Kasodani and Yoshika Miyako, she learns that the spirits are gathering at the Hall of Dreams’ Great Mausoleum. There, she confronts and defeats Seiga Kaku, Soga no Tojiko, the recently revived Mononobe no Futo, and Toyosatomimi no Miko.

When Reimu discovers that the temple is summoning a youkai from the outside world to oppose Miko, she locates that youkai, Mamizou Futatsuiwa, and defeats her as well.

Hopesless Masquerade
In the religious conflict between Shintoism, Buddhism, and Taoism, Reimu represents Shintoism, acting to protect the Human Village as its inhabitants struggle with a loss of hope.

She defeats Marisa Kirisame, then goes on to confront and overcome Ichirin Kumoi, Mononobe no Futo, and Byakuren Hijiri. She later encounters Toyosatomimi no Miko, only to discover that she is actually Mamizou Futatsuiwa, and her supporters were merely tanuki in disguise. Mamizou informs Reimu that unusual events are occurring in the heart of the Human Village. Investigating, Reimu finds that Hata no Kokoro is draining the villagers’ hope and engages her in battle to stop the interference.

Double Dealing Character

Reimu's back sprite in Double Dealing Character

“

——The Hakurei Shrine. A shrine that stood on a plot of land far away from the Human Village.

The shrine maiden, Reimu Hakurei, was troubled. Her purification rod wasn't listening to her.

The purification rod had started moving on its own. Ah, this must be because it's turned into a tsukumogami, right? So that means it's an enemy of hers, isn't it?

However, she didn't take action. Why? Because a tool that moved on its own was convenient for her.

Possibly because of her guilty conscience, she didn't mention this to anybody. It was right at this time that an unexpected situation occurred.

——The Forest of Magic. A forest that was wet and humid throughout the year. Within it, there was a place that was relatively dry: The house of Marisa Kirisame, a magician.

It seemed that her prized possession, the Mini-Hakkero, was somehow driving away the moisture and drying the surrounding area.

Her flame-spouting Mini-Hakkero was averse to moisture. It seemed to be acting out of its own will.

She was troubled by how to handle a tool that had begun moving on its own. How could she go about roasting some youkai with this bewitched weapon's fire...?

——The Scarlet Devil Mansion. A mansion on the shore of a lake, where a devil lived. The head maid, Sakuya Izayoi, had received orders from the resident vampire. "There's some youkai rampaging in the Misty Lake, so go do something," she said.

The vampire didn't ordinarily say things like that, but it seemed there was something else going on underneath, and Sakuya set off without listening too closely.

Why did she think that? It was because she had recently found a mysterious sword. That very sword had started to move on its own. Rampaging youkai, and her mysterious sword. They couldn't be unrelated.

As for why that was: when she grasped the sword, she too felt like rampaging.

——The rampaging youkai were causing riots in many places. Tools that moved of their own accord had been found here and there, too. What on earth was happening? Neither Reimu and company, nor the rampaging youkai, had any idea.

Clouds of unease were gradually beginning to cover the sky. The sound of a huge building, creaking in the strong wind. Discord echoed across Gensokyo.

Reimu notices that previously peaceful youkai have started acting violently. She confronts and defeats individuals such as Wakasagihime, Sekibanki, and Kagerou Imaizumi. Yatsuhashi Tsukumo and Benben Tsukumo inform her that a faction of youkai is planning social unrest.

Reimu travels to Shining Needle Castle and defeats Seija Kijin, who comments that her allies can grow in power without considering the consequences. She then proceeds further into the castle and defeats Shinmyoumaru Sukuna, who wields the Miracle Mallet.

Following this, a magical storm resembling the effects of the Miracle Mallet appears. Reimu discovers that the tsukumogami Raiko Horikawa caused it by altering her magic to draw from the outside world. After defeating Raiko, Reimu allows her to leave on the condition that she will not cause further trouble.

Urban Legend in Limbo

Reimu goes to Kourindou and encounters Marisa Kirisame, intending to have her test some mushrooms for poison. Marisa instead attacks her using occult powers, leaving Reimu confused by a strange ball she notices. She then meets Kasen Ibaraki, who appears knowledgeable about the ball. Reimu learns she possesses an Occult Ball, and Kasen attempts to remove it. After being defeated, Kasen warns Reimu about the ball's danger.

Later that night, Reimu encounters a mysterious figure, Sumireko Usami, following battles with other characters who warned her about this outsider. Reimu fights Sumireko to prevent the Occult Ball from opening a hole in Gensokyo.

Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom

When urban legends were manifesting in Gensokyo,

a rumour started to spread that "Apollo never went to the Moon".

At the same time, a metallic spider appeared around the mountain. The spider appeared to be slowly wandering around.

Reimu: "So, what's this weird machine you mentioned?"

Sanae: "It happened when the morning mist was still covering the mountain."

It had a form with no imperfections, unbecoming of any other beast or monster. Mist faded away and the trees withered in the places where the spider passed by.

Reimu: "So, a machine that looked like a spider?"

Sanae: "I only caught a glimpse of it, but it definitely wasn't just some youkai that I mistook."

Reimu: "Maybe it's one of the kappa's tools..."

Once the machine passed by, there were no signs of life. Tengu flew in the sky overhead, but for some reason, they paid no attention to the spider. As the foothills came into the spider's view, it slowly clambered down the cliffside.

Sanae: "This is definitely interesting. I can't imagine that its appearance is just a coincidence."

Sanae began to grow restless.

Reimu: "What is it? It's kind of irritating."

Sanae: "That thing looked just like Curiosity."

—Eientei.
Kaguya: "Seems the time has come for them to arrive."

Eirin: "What shall we do?"

Kaguya: "That's obvious, isn't it? I already prepared myself."

A natural and satisfying answer.

Eirin: "If they're making a move, no human will possibly be able to compete with them.

However, if we were to make any move, we'd fall right into the enemy's hands.

What's more, the youkai of Earth likely can't even interfere to begin with."

Kaguya: "So what do we do?"

Eirin: "I made some medicine for just the occasion. Get Reisen to deliver this to the shrine maiden and her friends."

—Marisa's house, in the Forest of Magic

The seven Occult Balls that had suddenly appeared. Marisa had been investigating just what one of the balls had been; The ball of the Lunar Capital, to be precise.

Marisa: "Looks like this thing was somehow the cause of that while urban legend uproar, but..."

As she sat bewildered, the moon rabbit Reisen appeared there.

—The metallic spider's march of purification cannot be stopped. The trees wither before one's eyes. Not one blade of grass was left in the spider's tracks. When Gensokyo is completely purified, it will be transformed into a perfect world.

Into a beautiful planet with no life on it...

Marisa was dressed like it was the middle of winter.

Reimu: "And yet over here, spring is in the air... I wonder if I should hold a flower viewing." Marisa: "Nice idea, but this is just about the only place where the flowers are bloomin'. Y'think it's because they get a lot of sun here?" ???: "My goodness. The flowers are blooming...?"

Aya: "I've heard that lately, brief cold spells are being followed by sunny days, and that flowers are blooming in the middle of autumn..."

"The fact that these cards are in our hands must mean the rumors are true." "Yeah. I suppose this is an incident... right?"

Not knowing the purpose of these cards or how they were made, she went to investigate. She'd first need to find a card dealer.

~ Unconnected Marketeers Prologue Japanese

Mysterious cards containing the abilities of humans and youkai begin appearing throughout Gensokyo. Concerned that they might fall into the wrong hands, Reimu decides to investigate.

She defeats several youkai, including Mike Goutokuji, Takane Yamashiro, and Sannyo Komakusa, the last of whom directs her to the Rainbow Dragon Cave. Inside, Reimu encounters Misumaru Tamatsukuri, who warns her about the dangers of exploring the cave and the mining of Izanagi objects there. After defeating Misumaru, Reimu steps outside for air and follows Tsukasa Kudamaki to the mountain peak, where she meets Megumu Iizunamaru, the creator of the cards. Megumu explains that she cannot control the circulation of the cards and advises Reimu to consult the goddess Chimata Tenkyuu if she wishes to do so.

When Reimu meets Chimata, the goddess attacks, believing that Reimu intends to steal all the cards rather than trade. After the battle, Reimu returns to the Rainbow Dragon Cave to investigate further and prevent a conflict between Tsukasa Kudamaki and an unknown individual. There, she encounters Momoyo Himemushi, who mistakenly believes Reimu is a thief and attacks her.

After defeating Aunn Komano, Nazrin, and Marisa Kirisame, she encounters Suika, who prevents her from entering the Animal Realm and directs her to Hell instead. Guided there by Hisami Yomotsu, Reimu confronts Zanmu Nippaku, an oni who attempts to stop her investigation. Despite the resistance, Reimu identifies Zanmu as the culprit.

2. Story

There was the feeling that something happened in Gensokyo. However, few people noticed this.

What the abnormal reaction that could be seen clearly was, the sanctuary, in other words, an untouchable ground that exists on the Mountain's foothill, and the power of incidents.

Clad with all the incidents she has resolved up to this point, she sets out to challenge the enemies in the Sanctuary.

~ Fossilized Wonders Prologue Japanese

After noticing that time in Gensokyo has come to a standstill, Reimu heads to the Sanctuary carrying mysterious stones containing the power of previous incidents she faced.

Near the Sanctuary, she encounters Ubame Chirizuka, who believes Reimu is responsible for the expulsion of herself and all beings from the area. After confirming that a mysterious force was indeed responsible, Reimu enters the Sanctuary. Inside, she meets Chimi Houjuu, who directs her to the underground altar. She defeats the guardian dousojin Nareko Michigami and enters the pyramid, where Yuiman Asama attacks, thinking Reimu is not real. After defeating Yuiman, Reimu arrives at the Sea of Tranquility, where Watatsuki no Toyohime explains that the incident originally affected the Lunar Capital and instructs Reimu to return to the Sanctuary to resolve Gensokyo's time anomaly.

Deep within the Sanctuary, Reimu meets Ariya Iwanaga, who reveals herself as the cause of time stopping. After defeating Ariya and restoring the flow of time in Gensokyo, Reimu returns to the altar, where she encounters Nina Watari, a being born from the information Yuiman could not process. After defeating Nina, she advises Reimu to leave.

1. Special Story

——Bunkachou. The mysterious notebook where the tengu wrote material for stories.

Marisa "Oh, I found this creepy notebook a while ago, I don't know whose it is, though."

Reimu "Oh, did you burn it?" Marisa "Why do I have to burn it? Anyway, it's got photos pasted everywhere in it, and there's explanations scribbled all over, like someone talking to themselves. Creepy, huh?" Reimu "That is creepy. So, did you burn it?" Marisa "Yeah, I burned it. In my mind. The photos of just youkai or danmaku have things like "This picture is no good" or "This picture will be useful" written on them.

Isn't that creepy?"

A crow calls. Soon the sun will set. It's a good thing it's not a cuckoo calling.

Reimu "So, where is this notebook?"

Marisa "It was creepy, so I was all excited about taking it home, but all of a sudden it was gone. Dammit, I wonder if a crow stole it." Reimu "That's the creepiest part of your story.

Maybe I'd better burn you instead of that notebook."

The tengu races across Gensokyo at the highest speed together with the crows. As the newspaper extras fly about, Gensokyo's newspaper girl Aya Shameimaru looked for youkai to serve as story material.

~ Shoot the Bullet Prologue Japanese

Reimu does not appear in Shoot the Bullet itself, but is featured in a special story included in the afterword. In it, she is shown talking with Marisa Kirisame about a notebook that Marisa discovered.

Touhou Hisoutensoku

“

That morning was a little dark, as if something was blocking the sunlight.

Could it be because of the morning fog that had unexpectedly appeared in the middle of summer?

Having leapt out of your home into the mist you were expecting to let you forget about the heat, it is no wonder you would be surprised to see "that" swaying before your eyes.

This human-shaped "that", venting disgusting tepid steam, staggered forward and looked as if it were gazing up at the mountain.

--From up on the mountain, as hot and noisy as it always was in the summer, she gazed down upon the human-shaped "that".

It had already been two years since she first came to Gensokyo. At first, she was so scared of its strange inhabitants that she squarely refused to even perform her rituals, but now she was on friendly terms with them, and could perform her usual work just fine.

She thought she would not be surprised by anything any more. But of course, Gensokyo is the kind of place that will surprise anyone who believes so. That is one of Gensokyo's strong points in comparison to the outside world.

From the Moriya Shrine, she had seen the shape of a giant human. It was taller by far than the shrine itself. In her own old-fashioned terms, it was on the scale of a ten-story highrise. To her, it looked like a giant robot from anime she watched when she was younger.

But for a robot, it moved too smoothly. It moved as if alive, sometimes looking longingly at the mountain, sometimes glaring down at the village. And suddenly, it was wrapped in fog, disappearing in eerie silence.

When she informed Kanako of what she had seen, Kanako told her about the "Brocken Spectre". The Brocken Spectre is a weather phenomenon where your own shadow is reflected in the mist as a seemingly giant figure.

But no matter whether it actually was just a weather phenomenon, just accepting that would take all the fun out of imagining what it could be. So she decided to believe it was a giant robot attacking the village below. That way, it would be fun to investigate.

Yes, this was definitely no shadow reflected in the mist. The mist had appeared after the human-shaped form, but most importantly, this was Gensokyo, a place where nothing, no matter how unexpected, is ever strange.

The little fairy was excited as ever. Today it was because she had seen that thing that was taller than a mountain.

Of course, it was also further away than the mountains, so it wasn't very big, but from looking at it, she felt there wasn't much of a difference between them. It had quickly been enveloped in mist and she lost sight of it, but she was sure of what she'd seen. That was the great youkai "Daidarabotchi", no doubt about it.

With no idea where it would live, but filled with excitement at seeing such a rare youkai, the shrine maiden had left the Youkai Mountain.

"Have you seen a giant ro... a large moving thing around here?"

Asked the shrine maiden, starting her search through the mist.

The little fairy for some reason felt annoyed by this, and felt that since she had seen it first, it should belong to her.

"I haven't seen anything like a Daidarabotchi!"

She answered, to fool the shrine maiden. She then set out to search for the great youkai on her own, out of pure curiosity.

The Scarlet Devil Mansion was as busy that day as it always was. The gatekeeper was giving a report to the mistress of the house, Remilia Scarlet, who was cheerfully paying it no mind.

The gate keeper was feeling a vague sense of unease. During the morning, she had seen the shape of a giant human at the foot of the mountain. It had then vented tepid steam around it, and disappeared.

What could it have been? It was as big as the giant bird Peng, and spewed ominous smoke. She was sure of it.

It was the shape of "Taisui Xingjun", the Embodiment of Misfortune.

Finally, all the youkai of Gensokyo must stand together and fight this evil god that has appeared in their midst, she reported to the mistress of the Scarlet Devil Mansion.

Needless to say, her recommendation was not heeded.

That was what she thought. But perhaps she exaggerated a bit, in order to liven up her dull everyday life a little.

　その日の朝は日射しが遮られ、僅かに暗かった。

　こんな夏に季節外れの朝霧が出ているのだろうか。

　暑さを忘れさせてくれる霧を期待して家を飛び出した君は、目の前に揺らめく「それ」を見て驚愕したに違いない。

　人型の「それ」は、生ぬるくて気持ちの悪い蒸気を放ち、　山を見上げるようにゆらゆらと動いていたのだ。

――いつものように暑く、いつものように騒がしい夏の山。　　彼女は人型の「それ」を見下ろしていた。

幻想郷に来てから早二年経とうとしていた。初めは異形なる者に対して畏怖から、まともに儀式も行えなかったが、今ではすっかり馴染み、違和感なく通常の仕事を行う事が出来た。

もう、多少の事では驚かないと思っていた。勿論、そう思ってしまったら必ず驚かされるのが幻想郷である。そこが外の世界にはない幻想郷の長所であった。

彼女は、守矢神社から見える巨大な人影を見ていた。人影は神社よりも遥かにでかい、彼女にとっての古典的な表現では十階建ての高層ビル位はあるだろうか。

その人影は、彼女には昔アニメで見た巨大人型ロボットに見えた。

しかし、ロボットと言うには動きが滑らかすぎた。まるで生きているかの様に動く人影は、時には山に望み、時には里を睨みそして突然霧に包まれたあと、不気味なほど静かに消えた。

その事を神奈子に報告すると、それは「ブロッケンの妖怪」だと教えてくれた。ブロッケンの妖怪とは、自分の影が霧に映り巨人に見える気象現象である。

実際何らかの気象現象かなんかであろう、そう考えてしまう自分の思考回路が面白くなかった。だから彼女は、あの影は里を襲う巨大ロボだと思う事にした。そう考えると調査が楽しいからである。

そう、アレは決して霧に映った影などではない。霧が出てきたのは人影が出た後だったし、何より、ここは何が起こってもおかしくない場所、幻想郷なのだから。

小さな妖精はいつものように興奮していた。今日は山よりも大きいアレを見たからである。

勿論、実際には山よりも遥かに小さいのだが、視覚から感じる印象は大差はない。すぐに霧に包まれ見えなくなってしまったが、彼女は確信していた。アレは、大妖怪「だいだらぼっち」に違いない。

普段はどこに住んでいるのか判らないが、珍しい妖怪を見たと興奮したのもつかの間妖怪の山から巫女が下りてきた。

「この辺で巨大ロ……、大きな動く物を見たりしていない？」

巫女はそういうと、霧の中を探し始めたのである。

小さな妖精は何故か焦燥感に駆られ、自分が先に見たんだから自分の物だと思う様になった。

「だいだらぼっちなんて見てないよ」

そう答え、巫女を牽制した。彼女はただの好奇心から自分で大妖怪を探そうと思ったのである。

いつも騒がしい紅魔館。その日も例外なく騒がしかった。門番である彼女は、紅魔館の主であるレミリア・スカーレットに何やら報告していたが、主は軽く聞き流していた。

彼女は漠然とした不安を感じていた。朝方、山の麓に巨大な人影を見たのである。そして、生ぬるい霧をまき散らし、消えてしまった。

アレは一体何だったのか。大鵬の様な大きな影、吐き出された禍々しい霧、彼女は確信していた。

アレは凶事の顕形「太歳星君たいさいせいくん

」の影である。

ついに幻想郷の全妖怪が手を取り合って戦わないといけない凶神が現れたのだと、紅魔館の主に報告していたのだ。

勿論それは聞き入れられなかった。

彼女は思っていた。退屈な毎日を少し楽しくする為に、わざと誇張しましたけどね、と。

~ Touhou Hisoutensoku Prologue Japanese

Reimu is not the main character and is only playable as a selectable character. In Sanae's scenario, she confronts Sanae at the Underground Geyser Center, suspecting the Moriya family of plotting something dangerous, but is defeated. She later reads about Hisoutensoku in a newspaper during the ending.

In Meiling's scenario, Reimu does not appear directly. Instead, a pseudo-Reimu, sent by the Giant Catfish to assassinate Hong Meiling in her dreams, is present but ultimately defeated.

Double Spoiler

Reimu appears as an Extra stage target, using several spell cards while Aya Shameimaru and Hatate Himekaidou photograph her and her danmaku.

Fairy Wars

Reimu makes a cameo in Fairy Wars during the Route B1 ending. Cirno and the Three Mischievous Fairies prank her while she is unaware of who is attacking, causing her to become angry and fire bullets in all directions.

Hopeless Masquerade

Reimu represents Shintoism in the religious conflict between Shintoism, Buddhism, and Taoism, as the religions exploit the Human Village’s sudden loss of hope.

After defeating Marisa Kirisame, she overcomes Ichirin Kumoi, Mononobe no Futo, and Byakuren Hijiri. She also confronts Toyosatomimi no Miko, who is revealed to be Mamizou Futatsuiwa in disguise, along with her tanuki supporters. Mamizou informs Reimu that something unusual is occurring in the heart of the Human Village. Reimu investigates and discovers that hope is being drained from the villagers by Hata no Kokoro, whom she battles to stop.

Impossible Spell Card

After learning from the tengu’s newspaper about a mischievous amanojaku, Reimu becomes one of the many powerful youkai and humans attempting to stop Seija Kijin, appearing on day eight. She uses spell cards that are considered impossible to dodge.

Gold Rush

Reimu appears as the boss in the single-stage minigame Gold Rush. Following the events of Impossible Spell Card, Seija Kijin acquires the ultimate 10th "rule-breaking" item, the Miracle Mallet (Real), capable of destroying danmaku, and attempts to use it to rob the Hakurei Shrine before its power expires. Reimu attacks Seija with three spell cards and additional non-spell attacks before being defeated.

Violet Detector

The Dream World version of Reimu appears in Dream 1 and 2 of Sunday, provoking Sumireko Usami to attack her. She reappears in Dream 1 of Wrong Sunday, explaining that the Dream Versions of all humans and youkai she knows will appear to try to kill her.

100th Black Market

“

The market god was defeated by the magician,

and the card market was officially opened. Some time has passed since then...

As a result, the Ability Cards flooded the market. "They'll inevitably become obsolete, and lose their power." ...So said the market god.

.........

"The Ability Cards will lose their power"?

Don't be stupid. That Chimata lady probably couldn't even imagine what's happening right now.

The streets are practically flooded with cards!

Just as the market god said, the market was now awash with cards.

But as a result, people even began to trade the cards outside of the usual methods. Black-market deals were happening left and right.

These black-market deals used an illegitimate form of money called "Bullet Money". The rules regarding transactions had partially collapsed, as well.

Ergo, the market had fallen into an uncontrollable state. Cards were now being freely traded in the world behind the scenes!

Indeed, the Black Market has opened...!

Alright, let's make some Bullet Money and collect cards!

If I got it right, it seems Bullet Money comes from danmaku.

If I throw a magic circle at danmaku, I should be able to get Bullet Money from it...

Press the Magic button to deploy your magic circle. When an enemy bullet passes over the magic circle, you'll receive "Bullet Money"-- an underground currency.

You can move the magic circle around while holding down the button. The magic circle also tracks Marisa's position when it's not deployed, so you can get Bullet Money by simply grazing bullets as well.

That's about it! Good luck!

Reimu appears as one of the bosses in the fourth market and has several ability cards based on her.

Shuusou Gyoku

Reimu as she appears in Shuusou Gyoku.

Reimu sprite in Shuusou Gyoku

Reimu makes a guest appearance as the second Extra stage boss in Shuusou Gyoku, the first entry of the danmaku game series Seihou Project by the junior doujin circle Shunsatsu sare do?, with music and art contributions from ZUN. She appears alongside Marisa Kirisame, holding the title "Eternal Shrine Maiden" with the theme "Dichromatic Lotus Butterfly ~ Ancients". In the following game, Kioh Gyoku, Yuuka Kazami also makes a guest appearance.

Reimu shows little awareness of the Seihou World, not noticing the lack of vegetation or considering the scientific machinery present. After VIVIT defeats Marisa at the Hakurei Shrine in Gensokyo, Reimu attacks Marisa with two purification rods before she can explain herself. Following Reimu’s defeat, VIVIT mentions that she was searching for the Holy Grail, leaving Reimu confused and prompting her to ask questions.

Touhou Sangetsusei
The Three Fairies of Light often observe Reimu as she tends the shrine and talks with Marisa about various events. They also occasionally target her with pranks.

Bohemian Archive in Japanese Red

Reimu in Bohemian Archive in Japanese Red

Aya attends one of the shrine's flower-viewing parties and asks Reimu about the event and the related incident. Reimu responds that cleaning up alone after the party was troublesome and that the incident has already been resolved. Aya is also surprised by Reimu’s seemingly drunk behavior.

Later, Aya shows her article to Reimu. Reimu complains about being depicted as a drunk who speaks carelessly and notes that the article does not mention the resolution of the Mist or Eternal Night incidents. Aya responds that she only reports what she can verify as true.

Extra of the Wind
Reimu receives a visit from Marisa Kirisame, who mentions a burglary at the Scarlet Devil Mansion reported in an extra. As they discuss how Marisa was the culprit and how outdated the extra is, its writer appears and explains that she created it to win a tengu newspaper contest.

A Beautiful Flower Blooming Violet Every Sixty Years
Reimu is the first person Yukari visits, finding her in Muenzuka. She explains that she is not there for flower viewing but to check if the flowers have returned to normal, and shortly afterward, she leaves Muenzuka and Yukari behind.

Perfect Memento in Strict Sense
Hieda no Akyuu compiles an in-universe encyclopedic article on Reimu as part of the Gensokyo Chronicle.

Memorizable Gensokyo
Reimu accepts Marisa's invitation to visit the Hieda mansion and see Hieda no Akyuu along with the Gensokyo Chronicle before it is fully assembled.

Touhou Bougetsushou
Reimu is at her shrine when Yukari Yakumo appears and asks her to train in summoning gods. Later, during her training in chapter 5, she is visited by Sakuya Izayoi, who inquires about potential fuel sources for a rocket, and by Youmu Konpaku, who suggests using traveling gods to propel it. Reimu acts as the vessel for the gods, joining Marisa and the Mansion’s crew on their journey to the Moon. There, she is the last to fight and is defeated by Watatsuki no Yorihime. Unlike the others, she remains in the Lunar Capital to demonstrate her god-calling abilities to the citizens and dispel rumors of a rebellion.

After about a month, Reimu returns from the Moon and recounts her experiences to Marisa Kirisame and Aya Shameimaru, though Aya declines to write an article about it. She later attends the opening of the Scarlet Devil Mansion’s indoor sea, taking a cold bath and discussing her observations of the Moon with Kaguya Houraisan.

The Grimoire of Marisa

Reimu is one of the individuals whose spell cards Marisa Kirisame documents, adding descriptions, comments, and observations to replicate them.

Wild and Horned Hermit
The hermit Kasen Ibara visits the Hakurei Shrine and, after a brief conversation, decides to help Reimu and Marisa become better individuals and extend their lifespans.

Kasen frequently visits the shrine, assisting Reimu with efforts to increase visitors and donations. Reimu’s focus on attracting donors is sometimes exploited by youkai, such as an unnamed kitsune who takes her wealth. Kasen also trains Reimu in chapters 5 and 6 to improve her abilities as a shrine maiden and temporarily assumes her duties when Reimu switches to fortunetelling in chapter 23.

In chapter 47, Reimu collapses after grabbing an oni’s arm. It is revealed that Kasen brought her to Avicii so she could fight and reseal the arm. Afterwards, Reimu allows the arm to be displayed in the shrine.

Curiosities of Lotus Asia
Reimu is a regular visitor of Kourindou and appears frequently in the novel alongside Marisa Kirisame. Like Marisa, she takes items without paying but helps Rinnosuke in return for services such as repairing her clothing.

Symposium of Post-mysticism

Reimu in Symposium of Post-mysticism, with her shrine destroyed

Reimu quietly listens to a symposium attended by Hieda no Akyuu, Marisa Kirisame, Kanako Yasaka, Byakuren Hijiri, and Toyosatomimi no Miko. She interrupts the discussion, demanding they stop speaking so positively about youkai, citing complaints from villagers. She distributes newspapers highlighting youkai causing trouble to support her point, but the crowd grows irritated by her behavior and disperses.

Reimu also appears in a newspaper article when her shrine is damaged by a localized earthquake and rebuilt by a celestial, an event that arouses suspicion in Aya Shameimaru.

Forbidden Scrollery
Reimu decides to visit Suzunaan and its owner, Kosuzu Motoori, after Marisa informs her that a large number of youma books are there.

Throughout the manga, Reimu monitors Kosuzu and intervenes to resolve problems caused by her or issues that could affect the village.

In the end, she confronts Yukari Yakumo, who allowed Kosuzu to be possessed by the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons scroll. Yukari explains that, as Reimu serves as a balance between humans and youkai, she orchestrated the incident so Kosuzu could become her friend.

Alternative Facts in Eastern Utopia

Reimu is mentioned in an article as someone responsible for monitoring the outsider Sumireko Usami and other recent visitors to Gensokyo, but she is said to neglect this duty. Aya warns that such an attitude could be dangerous for Gensokyo.

Later, Reimu appears alongside Sumireko during an interview with Aya, explaining that she looks after her because Sumireko arrived due to the Urban Legends incident and is unfamiliar with how she enters Gensokyo in her dreams.

The Grimoire of Usami
Reimu takes part in The Grimoire of Usami as the festival’s sponsor and one of the judges in the danmaku contest, hoping to attract visitors to her shrine and increase donations. When Seija Kijin and Shinmyoumaru Sukuna disrupt the festival, Reimu leaves her judging role to help defend the audience alongside the other judges. At the end, she appears as the final contestant, demonstrating serious danmaku while ensuring the public remains safe.

Foul Detective Satori
Reimu is informed by Marisa Kirisame that Patchouli Knowledge has collapsed, prompting her to visit the Scarlet Devil Mansion to investigate alongside Rin Kaenbyou, the detective’s assistant. She initially decides to investigate on her own, but in chapter 8 Satori Komeiji informs her that the spirit responsible holds a grudge against her shrine. After a period of hesitation, Reimu resolves to pursue the spirit following advice from Yukari Yakumo.

After several unsuccessful attempts, she returns to the Underground with Yukari’s assistance. There, she battles Yamame Kurodani and Parsee Mizuhashi before confronting Utsuho Reiuji. The fight escalates to the surface, where Mizuchi Miyadeguchi exploits Utsuho’s body to engage Reimu in battle.

Lotus Eaters
Marisa visits Reimu at the shrine to report attacks on villagers after leaving Geidontei and becomes suspicious of her "poster girl" after both are attacked by youkai in dreams following banquets where they had been drinking. After confirming that the girl is a youkai, the source of the nightmares, and not more dangerous than her abilities suggest, Reimu and Marisa leave her alone.

Later, Reimu is shown in the manga frequently visiting Geidontei undercover to investigate minor incidents. She also carries out her usual shrine maiden duties, including hosting festivals and parties, and is often seen relaxing at the shrine. Additionally, she visits the village with various schemes to earn money, particularly by offering youkai extermination services, as seen in chapter 50.

Whispered Oracle of Hakurei Shrine
Reimu writes fortune slips for all the characters she has encountered as a way of tidying up after an incident. She also creates one for herself.

Name Meaning

Reimu’s full name is Reimu Hakurei (博麗霊夢). Her surname Hakurei (博麗) can be interpreted as "esteemed companion," with 博 (Haku) meaning "broad" or "extensive" and 麗 (Rei) meaning "lovely," "graceful," or "beautiful." Her given name Reimu (霊夢) translates roughly to "spirit dream" and refers to a divine revelation experienced through dreams.

During the PC-98 era, her name was written as 博麗靈夢, with the uncommon character 靈 used instead of 霊. From Shuusou Gyoku onward, it was standardized to 博麗霊夢. In the Japanese community, 博麗靈夢 is used specifically to refer to Reimu in the PC-98 era. Similarly, Chinese (Taiwanese) fans who use Traditional Chinese characters adopt this form when referring to her, as the old Japanese kanji and traditional hanzi are nearly identical.

Appearance

General Description: Reimu Hakurei is of moderate height with a slender and proportionate build. Her overall appearance is characterized by her traditional shrine maiden attire, adapted across different iterations of the series. She maintains a consistent red-and-white color scheme in all of her canonical designs.

Facial Features: In the PC-98 era, Reimu is depicted with purple hair and eyes, with a large red ribbon tied at the back of her head and red cylindrical hair tubes adorning her sidelocks. In the Windows era, her hair is brown-black, varying in length and style between games, generally tending toward long and loose in later works. Her eye color varies between brown, red, or blue depending on the game. She retains the large red ribbon at the back of her head and the red tubes on her sidelocks. On certain portraits in Perfect Cherry Blossom Trial+, she is shown wearing white gloves, though these were removed in the final release of the game.

Clothing/Outfit:

PC-98 Era: Red hakama worn over a white kimono, reflecting a traditional shrine maiden uniform.
Windows Era: Sleeveless red top with a white collar, tied at the front with a ribbon that varies in color between yellow, red, or blue depending on the game. The top exposes her shoulders and midsection, revealing a white sarashi underneath. A red skirt replaces the standard hakama, and she wears a pair of white detached sleeves that extend from her wrists but leave her shoulders uncovered. This outfit retains the red-and-white color scheme and is commonly referred to as the "red-white shrine maiden" attire. She carries a shaman-like purification rod, and her shaman clothing elements originate from Rinnosuke Morichika, though the designer of these pieces is not confirmed.
Special Portrait Features: In select Perfect Cherry Blossom Trial+ portraits, Reimu is depicted wearing white gloves, which were retained on certain character selection screens but not included in subsequent artwork or releases.

Special Features: Reimu's ribbon, hair tubes, and detached sleeves are consistent visual traits across her appearances. The style, length, and color of her hair, as well as her eye color, are subject to variation depending on the game or portrait version.

Alternate Forms/Outfits: Reimu has multiple outfit variations, primarily differing in ribbon color, hair length, eye color, and the inclusion or omission of gloves. Her basic shrine maiden uniform remains consistent in its red-and-white motif, with minor stylistic adaptations between releases.

Easygoing and Carefree: Reimu exhibits a relaxed and laid-back demeanor, often approaching her daily activities without concern for potential dangers. She tends to act on the thoughts that come to her mind and openly expresses her feelings, presenting a straightforward and unreserved personality.

Simple and Unpretentious: She maintains a routine of sweeping the shrine grounds, drinking tea, and taking time to rest. While she may appear slovenly or undisciplined at times, she continues to carry out her duties as the Hakurei shrine maiden adequately, balancing her simplicity with the responsibilities of her role.

Intuitive and Resolute: Reimu demonstrates an acute sense of intuition regarding incidents, often responding quickly and decisively to emerging threats. She prioritizes efficiency and does not allow unnecessary distractions to impede her actions, which can give her an imposing or intimidating presence in certain situations.

Powerful and Self-Reliant: Her innate abilities allow her to handle challenges effectively without frequent training. This capability reinforces her independence, enabling her to confront and resolve conflicts with minimal preparation or external guidance.

Selective Social Connections: While her openness makes her approachable to both humans and youkai, she forms genuine bonds with only a few individuals, such as Marisa Kirisame. Reimu maintains a cautious and measured attitude toward most youkai, balancing her social interactions with the responsibilities inherent to her position as a shrine maiden.

Collaborative Yet Autonomous: Despite her duty to manage youkai activity, she occasionally works alongside them, participating in social gatherings and cooperative tasks at the shrine. She devises various methods to attract human visitors and donations, though these attempts often have mixed results and sometimes increase youkai presence instead.

Balanced Between Responsibility and Personal Inclinations: Reimu navigates her duties and interactions with others according to her own judgment, blending personal preferences with the requirements of her office. She maintains her role as protector and mediator in Gensokyo while retaining the freedom to act according to her own instincts and inclinations.

Relationships

Reimu Hakurei

Reimu Hakurei is the shrine maiden of the Hakurei Shrine and interacts with a wide range of characters in Gensokyo, though she participates less in daily life than Marisa Kirisame, which limits her familiarity with some residents. Despite this, she has encountered nearly every character who appears physically in the stories, with a few exceptions.

Marisa Kirisame

Marisa is a close friend of Reimu, and the two are often seen together at the shrine or during prologues in print works and games. They spend time chatting and coordinating on shrine activities, including festivals. They occasionally quarrel or spar over various issues, ranging from disputes during incidents to minor disagreements, but these conflicts are typically resolved quickly. Marisa and Reimu have also worked together to handle supernatural occurrences, though Marisa frequently takes initiative to resolve events ahead of Reimu.

Yukari Yakumo

Yukari occasionally seeks Reimu's help in resolving incidents or maintaining order in Gensokyo. She provides guidance and instruction, helping Reimu develop her spiritual abilities and understanding of the supernatural. Yukari offers advice on proper conduct, the use of divine powers, and the effects of the boundary on external objects, and she ensures Reimu is appropriately compensated when involved in certain events.

Sanae Kochiya

Sanae first meets Reimu as a rival shrine maiden but later offers assistance in gathering faith for the Hakurei Shrine. The two share a friendly, if occasionally competitive, relationship. They cooperate on various tasks, including maintaining shrine operations, and have cared for each other during times of need, such as taking turns watching over Reimu when she was incapacitated.

Rinnosuke Morichika

Reimu maintains a working relationship with Rinnosuke Morichika, the shopkeeper of Kourindou. She visits for supplies and occasionally social interaction. Rinnosuke has provided her with equipment such as her purification rod and clothing assistance, and Reimu maintains an ongoing, informal arrangement for goods and services.

Sumireko Usami

Reimu encounters Sumireko during incidents in the human world and prevents her from causing harm to Gensokyo. Following these events, the two develop a friendship, with Reimu ensuring Sumireko’s safety and interacting with her regularly, including in casual conversation.

Suika Ibuki

Suika often visits the shrine and is a recurring ally in resolving incidents. Initially seen as a nuisance, Reimu tolerates her presence and allows her to remain at the shrine without conflict.

Aya Shameimaru

Aya regularly reports on Reimu’s activities, often without permission, which Reimu finds frustrating. Despite this, they cooperate on certain investigations and events, and Reimu provides Aya with information when needed.

Kasen Ibaraki

Kasen serves as a mentor and occasional guardian to Reimu, offering guidance and criticism. Despite Reimu’s occasional annoyance with Kasen’s oversight, she regards her as a reliable friend and respects her advice. Their relationship is built on ongoing support and trust.

Three Fairies of Light

The Three Fairies of Light often play pranks on Reimu, which she initially addresses with force. Over time, they establish a cooperative relationship, assisting with chores and interacting amicably under Marisa’s mediation.

Kosuzu Motoori

Reimu interacts with Kosuzu Motoori to prevent incidents caused by her dealings with youma books. She maintains a protective role, ensuring Kosuzu’s safety while also engaging in casual conversation.

Aunn Komano

Initially mistaken for an intruder, Aunn now interacts with Reimu occasionally as a guardian at the shrine.

Shinmyoumaru Sukuna

Reimu provides temporary accommodation for Shinmyoumaru following battles, ensuring her safety during recovery.

Misumaru Tamatsukuri

Responsible for creating the Hakurei Yin-Yang Orbs, she is involved indirectly in Reimu’s activities.

Genjii

In the PC-98 canon, Reimu used a turtle named Genjii for transportation, referring to it as "gramps."

Ruukoto

Reimu obtained a robotic maid from Yumemi Okazaki, which assisted her at the shrine.

Mima

Originally a vengeful spirit, Mima became a recurring presence around the shrine and interacts with Reimu, often in playful or antagonistic ways.

Chaotic Good

Reimu introduced the spell card rules as the youkai had no way to defeat the Hakurei shrine maiden, making many youkai feel that their meaning to exist have dissapeared^[52]. Reimu does not allow anything that could throw Gensokyo into chaos^[53]. When Toyosatomimi no Miko observed all of Reimu's actions, she concluded that Reimu was a wonderful human being and she had much to learn from her^[54], looking back to before Reimu was born^[55], seeing her occupation as a youkai exterminator but she has also seen her camaraderie with youkai^[56]. Toyosatomimi no Miko had the ability to understand ten people's words simultaneously^[57], desires telling of a human's true character^[58]. Despite Reimu claiming to exterminate youkai, her actions usually never match this^[59], as an example in Double Dealing Character, after Shinmyoumaru used too much of the Miracle Mallet and greatly shrank in size, she put her in a cage to protect her from other bugs and animals^[60], with even Shinmyoumaru thanking her saying how considerate she was^[61]. The ending of Double Dealing Character also notes the possibility of Reimu caring for Shinmyoumaru because she felt guilty towards weaklings^[62], a huge plot point in Double Dealing Character with the weak youkai noting that the humans don't know what it's like to be the lowest class of the food chain^[63]. It's noted by Eirin that even though Reimu would've likely refused to help the Lunar Capital, her kind heart would've had her end up helping^[64].

Reimu due to their nature is very blunt and direct, even when it comes to saying or doing things that aren't exactly good or benevolent. An example being when she was fighting against Meira and thought she was flirting with her initially and then understood since they were fighting that if she beats Meira she gets to make her hers^[65], along with insulting her^[66]. After the fight where she thinks she killed her she is slightly worried but immedieatly opts to just bury her^[67]. When the gatekeeper Sara claims she won't let her past to enter Makai, Reimu simply states then she'll have to beat her up^[68]. When Marisa is complaining about the heat and how she's going to die due to how hot it is, Reimu bluntly responds saying that she'll give her a sky burial if she dies^[69]. When finding a random youkai she notes she's searching for them to obliterate them and tells the youkai she means her too^[70]. It's noted by Alice that once Reimu entered Makai she has been extremely violent^[71]. In response to being called a murderer by Remilia, Reimu claims that one person doesn't make her a mass murderer, so it's fine^[72]. Noted by ZUN that Reimu is the type of character to exterminate youkai with no questions asked, exterminate them even if they haven't really done anything^[73]. Though it's been shown when Reimu attacks an innocent youkai she will apologize if they're genuienly innocent^[74].

It's noted by Eiki Shiki that Reimu has exterminated many youkai for no good reason, along with some that weren't youkai, and despite being a shrine maiden, she doesn't commune with her god, at times, she event opposes her god^[75]. Noting that her karma runs a ltitle too deep, noting that if Reimu dies, she won't even be able to go to Hell^[76]. Reimu has promised in return to do some good deeds to make up for her sins^[77].

Protection Level: Global Protector (Reimu is tasked with guarding the gates to other realms scuh as Hell and Makai where those "things that aren't human" reside^[42]. Hakurei Shrine Maidens job are to watch over the the Great Barrier that keeps Gensokyo and the Human World separate and resolve incidents for a living^[78], where if the barrier were to be destroyed, Gensokyo would likely not fare well^[79])

Attack Potency

At least Peak Human level physically (Reimu is a force to be reckoned with due to her natural power, having trained herself to attack with ofuda, her spirit power, and martial arts^[1]. Could headlock a Remilia Scarlet that was exposed to sunlight^[86]), Higher with Spiritual Power (Reimu is noted to possess an innate spiritual power^[1].

Far Higher with Yin-Yang Orb (The Yin-Yang Orb is the Hakurei Shrine's Greatest Treasure, being a mysterious orb with an unnatural amount of spiritual power, where Reimu normally cannot defeat spirits or devilish powers without a weapon such as this^[89].

Planet level (Buster) with Yin-Yang Orb Self-Destruction (The Yin-Yang Orb can charge itself to explode and destroy the Earth in a black electric ball^[93]). Can ignore covnentional durability with Magic (Magic exists outside of the Grand Unified Theory^[94], a theory with any model that merges electromagnetic, weak, and strong forces into a single force at high energies, unifying gravity with the electronuclear interaction, providing a more comprehensive theory of everything. Yumemi explains that on her world, all power can be explained by the Grand Unified Theory, however she posits an existence of a power not covered by the Theory: the power of magic^[95]. Yumemi also explains that in the world of Gensokyo, magic unifies everything^[96]. Magic is noted by Yumemi to have close ties with religion^[97]. The second layer of reality is spirit and magic, while the first layer is where all things within the laws of physics presides, putting attacks with magic outside of the conventional laws of physics^[98])

At least Peak Human level (Withdrawn into the mountains for a miniscule amount of training^[99], making her strong enough to exterminate youkai by attacking with amulets, firing her spiritual power called Spiritual Attack and releasing the power of the Yin-yang Orb^[100], where prior she could only do it with the Yin-yang Orb. One of her combat styles doesn't require her to use the Yin-Yang Orb while in combat^[101]), Far Higher with Spiritual Power (Her Ofudas can fully destroy tanks^[102].

After proving to be the strongest she went to enter the ruins and^[112] fought^[113] against^[114] Chiyuri Kitashirakawa & Yumemi Okazaki), Even Higher with Reactive Power Level.

Planet level (Buster) with Yin-Yang Orb Self-Destruction. Can ignore covnentional durability with Magic

At least Peak Human level physically, Far Higher with Spiritual Power (Fought and defeated Shinki^[117], a goddess and creator of Makai, putting her far beyond any of the threats Reimu faced in Makai^[118], with Shinki even questioning how could Reimu be this strong^[119]. Fought and defeated Yumeko^[120], which Shinki noted that out of everything she created Yumeko was of the highest calibur^[121]. Fought and defeated Alice Margatroid, even while her two dolls were defending her from attacks^[122], with Alice later coming back as a far stronger magician using a grimoire and still being easily defeated by Reimu^[123]. Noted that even the magicians of Makai were no match for Reimu^[124]. Mima viewed Shinki as so weak that if she could become a god then she considered Reimu is close to becoming one herself^[125]), Even Higher with Reactive Power Level.

Equipment

Oonusa (Purification Rod)

Description: The oonusa is Reimu Hakurei’s primary weapon, commonly referred to as a purification rod. It is used to exorcise and purify hostile entities.
Appearance: A ceremonial rod adorned with paper streamers, resembling a traditional Shinto purification tool.
Usage: The oonusa can be thrown toward targets, after which it autonomously pursues enemies to carry out purification. Due to its relatively slow homing capability, Reimu often carries it directly toward opponents before throwing it to ensure effectiveness.
Function: Designed to seek out enemies on its own and perform purification without constant manual control. However, its tracking performance is imperfect, limiting its reliability at longer distances.
Notable Traits: Despite being intended as a purification implement, the oonusa is noted to be somewhat unsatisfactory in fulfilling this role, largely due to its sluggish homing behavior.

Ruukoto

Description: A nuclear-powered robot maid given to Reimu Hakurei as her granted wish at the end of Phantasmagoria of Dim.Dream^[996]. Originally created to serve Yumemi Okazaki, Ruukoto was transferred to Reimu to help with daily shrine cleaning duties.

Appearance: Ruukoto has light green hair and wears a light-blue and white maid uniform. Her outfit includes a red bow, and a yellow radiation warning symbol is displayed on her back, indicating her nuclear power source.

Usage: Intended to assist with maintenance and cleaning of the Hakurei Shrine. Despite being assigned domestic responsibilities, she is not particularly efficient at performing household tasks, often requiring Reimu to do the work herself^[997].

Function: Serves as a robotic maid and helper unit, designed to follow commands and carry out basic chores around the shrine. Her role is primarily supportive rather than combat-oriented.

Notable Traits: Nuclear-powered construction and status as a robot maid set her apart from typical shrine helpers. She is a parody of other android maids, and her poor cleaning ability contrasts with her intended purpose. It is unclear whether Reimu still keeps Ruukoto due to her origin in the PC-98 era.

P (Red)

Increases shot power by 1^[998].

点（Purple）

The higher on the screen it is collected, the more the score will increase.

S (red)

Increases shot power by 10.

夢（Light Blue）

Increases the Dream Gauge.

Ｂ（Green）

Grants 1 additional bomb.

Bomb Up!

Grants 1 additional bomb^[999].

１ＵＰ（Blue）

Grants 1 additional life.

F (Yellow)

Grants maximum power.

A simple, easy-to-use card with absolutely no special traits. For youkai, Reimu's needles must surely be an itch-scratcher that feels achingly good.

Attacks while following right behind you. It's half of Youmu's ghost half, not half of Youmu herself. So it's 1/4 of her. Being possessed by a phantom is typically nothing to be glad about, but since it attacks things for you, it's something you can more-or-less rely on.
	上海人形タイプ：装備カード自動的に敵を見つけて倒しに行ってくれるアリス・マーガトロイドの人形自我を持っているような動きだが、人形には自我は無い。多分だが……	Shanghai Doll Type: Equipment Card Alice Margatroid's doll. Automatically seeks out enemies to defeat. It moves as if it's got a mind of its own, but dolls don't have minds. Well, probably...

Your item collection radius shall expand dramatically! Kappa can stretch their arms out, so this is clearly taking advantage of that fact to scoop up items.
	神山への供物タイプ：能力カード山に捧げられた物を全て回収する八坂神奈子の能力アイテムの自動回収ラインが大幅に下がるぞ　 ”山に捧げられた物は全て自分のものである！” ああ、何という自己中心的な響き！	Offerings to a Sacred Mountain Type: Passive Card Kanako Yasaka's ability to collect every last thing offered to the mountain.

A medicine that's popular with demographics who have issues with elixirs of immortality, but will happily accept elixirs of long life. There's really not much difference, though.
	幸運うさぎの足タイプ：能力カード被弾時にちょっとした幸運が訪れる因幡てゐの能力喰らいスペルカードの有効時間が長くなり、さらに死亡時にお金が減らなくなる。ウサギのように素早く、ずる賢くミスを回避できる幸運のお守り。	Lucky Rabbit's Foot Type: Passive Card Tewi Inaba's ability. A tiny bit of good luck visits you upon getting hit. Your window to use a Spell Card upon death gets longer, and you won't lose any money upon dying, either.

	弱肉強食の理タイプ：能力カード本人のショットが強くなるという驪駒早鬼の能力パワーが低くても強くなれるので便利な能力いくら頭を使おうが、策を練ろうが圧倒的な力のもとでは誰もが降伏する。結局、大切なのは攻撃力なんだよなぁ	Law of the Survival of the Fittest Type: Passive Card Saki Kurokoma's ability to increase the power of your regular shot.^[1013] A useful ability that helps make you stronger even if your Power is low.

The cooldown time for Active Cards also decreases. You can attack enemies with your peashooter all you like, but in the end, you're bound to get cornered in no time and beat 'em with a huge release of magic. So if you're gonna power something up, it's gotta be your Spell Cards!

Your main shot will sometimes catch small-fry in the blast. People often talk about exploding frogs with firecrackers back in the day.

You receive +1.0 Power upon acquiring this card, and if you die, you can only lose Power down to 3.0 at minimum. P Items are basically just dead weight, yeah?

	弾幕の亡霊タイプ：能力カード敵弾にかする敵弾を消す事がある西行寺幽々子の能力^[1015] 亡霊は死を怖れない。いや、怖れるわけがないグレイズとは死の恐怖を受け入れることである死への恐怖が有り得ない亡霊にとってグレイズは何の脅威にもならないのだろう	Danmaku Ghost Type: Passive Card Yuyuko Saigyouji's ability to sometimes erase enemy bullets via grazing. Ghosts do not fear death. Rather, they cannot fear death. Grazing means accepting the fear of death. For a ghost who couldn't possibly fear death, grazing should pose no threat at all.

	濡れた大蛇タイプ：能力カード魔方陣で敵弾の動きを止める牛崎潤美の能力魔方陣に当たっている間、敵弾が止まり、さらに動き出した後も弾速が遅くなっているぞ。敵弾だって石化するんだねぇ。	Drenched Giant Snake^[1056] Type: Passive Card^[1057] Urumi Ushizaki's ability to stop bullets with your magic circle. Bullets stop in place upon touching the magic circle, and they're still slowed down after they start to move again. So even bullets can get turned to stone...
	守銭奴の教訓タイプ：能力カードアイテムの回収範囲が広がる河城にとりの能力特に弾貨を集めやすくなるのは魅力的。河童は腕を伸ばすことが出来るのでそれを活用してかき集めているに違いない。	Miser's Advice Type: Passive Card Nitori Kawashiro's ability to expand your item collection radius. Being able to collect Bullet Money more easily is a particularly good selling point. Kappa can stretch their arms out, so this is clearly taking advantage of that fact to scoop up items.
	神山への供物タイプ：能力カード山に捧げられた物を全て回収する八坂神奈子の能力アイテムの自動回収ラインが大幅に下がるぞ “山に捧げられた物は全て自分のものである！” ああ、何という自己中心的な響き！	Offerings to a Sacred Mountain Type: Passive Card Kanako Yasaka's ability to collect every last thing offered to the mountain. The item autocollect line is dramatically lowered! "All offerings to the mountain belong to I!" Ah, it has such a self-centered ring to it!
	鬼傑組長の脅嚇タイプ：能力カード敵が追加でお金を出す様になる吉弔八千慧の能力慇懃ながらも逆らう気力を奪う態度で妖精達からなけなしのお金を奪う。弾貨みたいな偽物の金には興味は無い。人生で何が一番大切な物か、君なら判る筈だ。	Kiketsu Matriarch's Threat Type: Passive Card Yachie Kicchou's ability to make enemies produce extra Funds. Steal meager amounts of money from fairies with a demeanor that's polite, yet also steals one's will to resist. I'm not interested in fake cash like Bullet Money. What's the most important thing in one's life? You should know the answer.
	かぐや姫の隠し箱タイプ：能力カード弾貨の出現量が増える蓬莱山輝夜の能力これで買い物が楽になる。いやー、貧乏とはおさらばだ。偽物の金だけどな。何でも買ってやるぜ。闇市場限定だけどな！うーん、通販では使えないのか……。	Princess Kaguya's Secret Stash Type: Passive Card Kaguya Houraisan's ability to increase the amount of Bullet Money produced. This'll make shopping much easier. Heck yeah, no more bein' poor for me. I mean, it's fake money, but still. I can buy anything I want! I mean, only on the Black Market, but still! Hmmm... You sure I can't use this for mail-order stuff...?
	詐欺うさぎの足タイプ：能力カードかすりの効果範囲が広くなる因幡てゐの能力闇市場に必要な弾貨が出やすくなるぞ。ウサギの足なんか気色悪いと思うでしょ？大丈夫、てゐ特製イミテーションです。その辺も詐欺。	Scam Rabbit's Foot Type: Passive Card Tewi Inaba's ability to increase your grazing range.^[1058] You'll have an easier time getting the Bullet Money needed for a Black Market. You think rabbit's feet are creepy, don't you? No worries, this is Tewi's special-made imitation. That part's also a scam.
	小石ころ帽子^[1059] タイプ：能力カード敵本体に当たらなくなる古明地こいしの能力随分と地味な能力だし、さほど役に立たないところが何とも彼女らしい。もしかして誰も私のことに気が付いていない？そっかー、それは都合が良いわ。	Pebble Hat Type: Passive Card Koishi Komeiji's ability to prevent you from crashing into enemies. It's a very modest ability, and not very useful at all, but that's exactly what makes it Koishi-esque. Is it just me, or is nobody noticing me? Huh, okay. That's convenient.
	弾幕の亡霊タイプ：能力カード敵弾にかする敵弾を消す事がある西行寺幽々子の能力亡霊は死を怖れない。いや、怖れるわけがないグレイズとは死の恐怖を受け入れることである死への恐怖が有り得ない亡霊にとってグレイズは何の脅威にもならないのだろう。	Danmaku Ghost Type: Passive Card Yuyuko Saigyouji's ability to sometimes erase enemy bullets via grazing. Ghosts do not fear death. Rather, they cannot fear death. Grazing means accepting the fear of death. For a ghost who couldn't possibly fear death, grazing should pose no threat at all.
	弱肉強食の理タイプ：能力カードショットが大きくなる驪駒早鬼の能力パワーが低くても強くなれるので便利な能力いくら頭を使おうが、策を練ろうが圧倒的な力のもとでは誰もが降伏する。結局、大切なのは攻撃力なんだよなぁ	Law of the Survival of the Fittest Type: Passive Card Saki Kurokoma's ability to make your shots bigger. A useful ability that helps make you stronger even if your Power is low. No matter how many smarts you have or schemes you devise, everyone surrenders in the face of overwhelming power. Attack power's what really matters in the end, y'know?
	はじける赤蛙タイプ：能力カードショットがたまに爆発するという洩矢諏訪子の能力メインショットが雑魚キャラを巻き込むようになるカエルに爆竹入れて爆発させるとかよく有る話だけど自然に爆発する訳がないって思っているよね。実は、自然に爆発するんですよ。	Bursting Red Frog Type: Passive Card Suwako Moriya's ability to make your shot sometimes explode. Your main shot will sometimes catch small-fry in the blast. People often talk about exploding frogs with firecrackers back in the day. But you think they don't go around exploding on their own, don't you? As a matter of fact, they do explode naturally.
	頼りになる弟子狸タイプ：能力カードショットを３本増やす二ッ岩マミゾウの能力マジで頼りになるぜ。どんな命令でも聞くし、危険な場所にも行ってくれる。いやぁ、持つべき物は有能な部下だよなー。＊パワハラです	Reliable Tanuki Apprentice Type: Passive Card^[1060] Mamizou Futatsuiwa's ability to increase your main shots by 3. Dang, these guys really are reliable. They listen to any orders I give 'em, they march into dangerous places... Man, capable underlings really are somethin' you gotta have. (This is power harassment)*
	ドラゴンキセルタイプ：能力カードライフがじわじわ増える駒草山如の能力ウェーブを３回クリアするたびにライフが増える。長期戦向きの能力だ。タバコでも吸ってのんびり行きましょか？	Dragon Pipe Type: Passive Card Sannyo Komakusa's ability to gradually increase your stock of lives. For every three waves you clear, you get an extra life. An ability well-suited for the long, drawn-out battles. Shall we relax and smoke some tobacco?
	暴食のムカデタイプ：能力カード敵を攻撃すると自分も強くなる姫虫百々世の能力敵を攻撃する度に徐々に攻撃力が強くなる。後半ほど敵が硬くなるので中々便利かも知れない。持久戦に持ち込んだら、ムカデの勝ちだ！	Gluttonous Centipede Type: Passive Card^[1061] Momoyo Himemushi's ability to get stronger by attacking enemies. Your attack power gradually increases each time you attack an enemy. Enemies get bulkier in the lategame, so it may end up being fairly useful. If you bring a centipede to an endurance match, the centipede always wins!
	酔狂の伊吹瓢タイプ：能力カード酒の力で攻撃力が大幅に上がる萃香の能力入手直後は攻撃力が大幅に上がるが、敵を攻撃する度に効果が減っていってしまう。時間がたつと酔いってのは醒めてしまうんだなぁ。ま、それでも便利なカードだ。	Drunkenly Whimsical Ibuki Gourd Type: Passive Card^[1062] Suika Ibuki's ability to drastically boost your attack power with the power of alcohol. Your attack power shoots up immediately after obtaining this card, but the effect is reduced with each enemy that you attack. Even if you get drunk, you sober up as time passes... Well, it's still a pretty useful card.
	商売上手な招き猫タイプ：能力カード闇市場の品揃えをよくする豪徳寺ミケの能力闇市場に並ぶカードの数が増えるぞ選択肢が多いことは良いことだ。ま、いつも同じ物ばっか選んじゃうんだけどね。	Maneki-neko with Good Business Skills Type: Passive Card^[1063] Mike Goutokuji's ability to improve product lineups during Black Markets. The variety of cards you can buy in the Black Market will increase! Having more choices is a good thing. I always end up buyin' the same things, though.
	山童的買い物術タイプ：能力カードカードの購入時に少し安く買える山城たかねの能力　商売の鉄則は、安く仕入れて高く売る事だしかし安物を買うことが重要なのでは無い山童は、貴重品を安く仕入れる技術を持っているのだ	Yamawaro Shopping Technique Type: Passive Card Takane Yamashiro's ability to buy cards for slightly cheaper. The ironclad rule of commerce: buy cheap, sell high. But that doesn't mean you have to buy cheap products. Yamawaro have techniques that let them stock high-quality goods at low prices.
	命を焚く松明タイプ：能力カードクールタイムが短くなるクラウンピースの能力全ての使用カードのクールタイムが若干短くなるぞ。焚き火を見るとリラックスするらしいですね。でも彼女の持つ松明を見てはいけない。とてもクールな気持ちではいられないでしょう。	Life-Burning Torch Type: Passive Card^[1064] Clownpiece's ability to reduce your cooldown times. The cooldown time for every Active Card becomes a bit shorter! Watching a bonfire apparently makes you feel more relaxed. But you shouldn't look at the torch that she's carrying. It'll make it really hard to keep a cool head.
	抗いがたきジュリ扇タイプ：能力カード次のウェーブから難易度が最高になる依神女苑の能力　誰だよ、こんな疫病神を呼んだ奴。こんなカード手に入れたらもう死ぬしかないじゃん。絶対に彼女には近づかないようにしよ。＊ボスの難易度は変化しません	Irresistible Julie Fan^[1065] Type: Passive Card^[1030] Joon Yorigami's ability to maximize the difficulty level from the next wave onward. Who the heck invited this pestilence god?! If I get this card, dyin' is the only option I'll have left! I have got to avoid going anywhere near her. *Does not change the difficulty of bosses.
	純粋な自己肯定感タイプ：能力カードステージの最終局面まで飛ばす純狐の能力ザコなんかと戦っても馬鹿馬鹿しいでしょ？もうボスまで一気に進めてしまいましょう。この私が負ける訳無いわ。 “圧倒的、自己肯定感！”	Pristine Self-Confidence Type: Passive Card^[1030] Junko's ability to skip straight to the end portion of a stage. Fighting each and every small fry would just be foolish, no? Let's simply proceed all the way to the boss. There's no way I can lose. "Overwhelming self-confidence!"
	百回目のブラックマーケットタイプ：能力カード手に入れてないカードが出る山城たかねの能力ステージをクリアすると、そのステージでまだ手に入れてないカードがある場合、それが出てきます。まだまだカードを出し渋っている奴がいるなぁ。そんなことしたって価値は上がらないわ。	Hundredth Black Market Type: Passive Card^[1066]^[1067] Takane Yamashiro's ability to summon cards you haven't obtained. When you clear a stage, if there's any cards in that stage that you haven't obtained yet, those cards will show up. Looks like there's still some folks clinging to their cards, huh...? Sitting on them isn't going to make them any more valuable, you know.

	画面の境界タイプ：使用カード自由に画面端を移動出来る八雲紫の能力画面端で使用ボタンを押すと反対側にワープ出来る多くの人間、妖怪達にとって “画面端って一体何だ？”と話題性から興味を持つ人が多い人気のカードだ	Screen Border Type: Active Card Yukari Yakumo's ability to let you freely warp between screen edges. Press the card-use button on the edge of the screen, and you'll warp to the other edge. A card that's popular amongst many humans and youkai, because "what is a screen edge, anyway?" is a great topic for getting people's interest.
	打ち出の小槌タイプ：使用カード敵弾をお金に換える少名針妙丸の能力勇敢な小人は巨大な鬼を相手に打ち勝った鬼が落としていった“打ち出の小槌”はどんな願いも叶える事が出来る代物だった “敵弾がお金だったら良いのになぁ”	Miracle Mallet Type: Active Card Shinmyoumaru Sukuna's ability to change enemy bullets into Funds. A brave inchling vanquished a giant oni. The "Miracle Mallet" that the oni dropped in its wake was an object that could grant any wish imaginable. "Oh, if only the bullets were all money...!"
	忍耐の要石タイプ：使用カード敵弾を消す要石を出す比那名居天子の能力かなりの量の敵弾を消すことが出来る頼りになる石攻撃こそが最大の防御？耐久スペルカードの存在する弾幕の世界では防御こそが最大の攻撃さ！＊今回は耐久スペルはないけどね	Keystone of Endurance Type: Active Card Tenshi Hinanawi's ability to summon a bullet-erasing keystone. A reliable stone that can erase a considerable number of bullets. "Offense is the greatest defense?" In the world of danmaku, where survival Spell Cards exist, defense is the greatest offense of all! *There aren't any survival spells this time, though.
	要石ミサイルタイプ：使用カード要石を投げつける比那名居天子の能力要石は敵弾を消しながら真っ直ぐ飛んでいくぞ。攻撃力も高くて防御にもなる。そう、要石とはそういうもんなのだ。	Keystone Missile Type: Active Card Tenshi Hinanawi's ability to throw a keystone. The keystone will fly straight forward, erasing any bullets in its wake! It's got high attack power, and it can help defend you, too. Indeed, that's what a keystone is.

	やんごとなき威光タイプ：使用カード為政者のオーラで敵弾を間引く豊聡耳神子の能力弾幕なんて殆どがノイズです大切な敵弾は極一部に過ぎません手を合わせて集中するだけで自分に害をなす敵弾だけが見える筈です。ほら簡単でしょ？	Esteemed Authority Type: Active Card Toyosatomimi no Miko's ability to thin out bullets with her authoritative aura. Almost all danmaku is just background noise. Only a small fraction of the bullets are truly important. Place your hands together and focus, and you should see only the bullets that pose a threat to you. Simple, right?
	ヴァンパイアファングタイプ：使用カード近距離に牙で攻撃するレミリアの能力超攻撃力の接近攻撃を何度でも出来るカードスペルカード？　馬鹿馬鹿しいねそんなもん、一噛みで解決だよ。	Vampire Fang Type: Active Card Remilia Scarlet's ability to deal close-range damage with a fang. A card that lets you perform as many super-powerful, close-range attacks as you'd like. Spell Cards? How silly. You can finish something like that off in one bite.
	地底の太陽タイプ：使用カード全てを焼き尽くす霊烏路空の能力究極の攻撃力、終わらない無敵時間長すぎるクールタイム。ちまちま弾幕を避けるとかかっこつけのやることだ能力者はただ、全て焼き尽くせばいい。	Underground Sun Type: Active Card Utsuho Reiuji's ability to burn everything to ash. Ultimate attack power, endless invincibility time, and a way-too-long cooldown time. Nudging your way through danmaku is for wimpy showboaters! If you're really powerful, you just need to burn everything down.
	アイテムの季節タイプ：使用カード使用するとリリーホワイトを呼び出す能力彼女は小金持ちだ。何故かお金と弾貨を大量に持っている！倒して奪え！ただ、彼女も弾を撃ってくるから気を付けろ。呼ばれる度に強くなっていくぞ！	Item Season Type: Active Card An ability card that summons Lily White when used. She's got a small fortune. Somehow, she's managed to get tons of money and Bullet Money! Defeat her and take it all! Just be careful, because she shoots bullets at you too.

	重低音バスドラムタイプ：使用カード近距離の敵弾を消し去る堀川雷鼓の能力地味ながら何度も叩けるぞ敵弾って何で出来ていると思う？あれは波動なのよ、つまり音波で打ち消しあうることに、何の不思議もないのよ	Heavy Bass Drum Type: Active Card Raiko Horikawa's ability to wipe away enemy bullets at close range. It's plain, but you can thwack it over and over! What do you think enemy bullets are made of? They're waves. Ergo, there's nothing strange about being able to cancel them out with sound waves!
	サイコキネシスタイプ：使用カード敵弾（レーザー除く）を跳ね返す宇佐見菫子の能力超能力があったら何を使いたい？テレポーテーション？　テレパシー？うーん、やっぱり都合の良いサイコキネシスかなだって、それ以外は技術で何とかなりそうでしょ？	Psychokinesis Type: Active Card Sumireko Usami's ability to reflect enemy bullets (except lasers). If you had psychic powers, which one would you use? Teleportation? Telepathy? Hmm, I guess I'd have to go with some nice, convenient psychokinesis. I mean, you can take care of everything besides that with technology, right?
	霊力の標本瓶タイプ：使用カードパワーを消費して霊撃を撃てる菅牧典の能力弾幕に囲まれて危ないと思った時、もう無理だ、諦めた、って時、貴方はどうします？そう、霊撃を使いますよね、そうですよね。そんな霊撃が撃ち放題になるカードですよ。	Spirit Power Sample Bottle Type: Active Card Tsukasa Kudamaki's ability to fire a Spirit Strike in exchange for Power. When you're surrounded by danmaku and sense danger-- when you think "it's over!", "I'm finished!"-- what would you do? Why, yes. You'd use a Spirit Strike. That's exactly what you'd do. This card lets you fire off as many Spirit Strikes as you want.
	大天狗の麦飯タイプ：使用カード何回でもパワーが増やせる飯綱丸龍の能力使用する度にパワーが１増えるぞ。何で山に入ってからパワーを集めているんだ？最初から大量の食料を持って、山に入れば良いのに。	Great Tengu's Barley Rice Type: Active Card Megumu Iizunamaru's ability to increase your Power any number of times. You'll get +1.0 Power every time you use this card. Why are you collecting Power after setting foot on the mountain? You should pack tons of food to begin with, and then set out.

It's so easy to lose sight of small fish, isn't it? Maybe they're actually disappearing for that brief moment. Perhaps there's a parallel world that only small fish know about.

You won't be hit by bullets as long as you're hidden by the fabric. Why? Because you're hiding, of course.

Notable Techniques

Focused Movement

Moving while holding down the shift key will result in a decrease of the Reimu movement speed to about half of what it is. There will be moments when there are too many enemy fire on the screen to the point where moving through them is impossible. In such cases, Reimu uses this focused movement to make danmaku dodging easier.

Ofuda Throw

Reimu's primary weapon, she throws an ofuda, a talisman or charm, at enemies as a form of attack. In Highly Responsive to Prayers she uses it to destroy enemy bullets and deflect the Yin-Yang Orb^[1074].

Exorcism

Reimu can perform an exoricsm with the spiritual attack. In Highly Responsive to Prayers both the Yin-Yang Orb and enemy bullets can be deflected. The faster the Yin-Yang Orb comes in the further it'll fly. When Reimu tries to deflect the orb in a more shallow trajectory, she quickly performs the exorcism and catches the orb on her return strike, while enemy bullets are deflected at the beginning of the attack.

Spirit Attack

Otherwise called "bomb", a spirit attack that counters projectiles and enemy attacks while also making Reimu become invicible. In Highly Responsive to Prayers bombs help Reimu flip panels over.

Slide

Mainly used in Highly Responsive to Prayers, this technique allows Reimu to deflect the Yin-Yang Orb with the slide^[1075]. During a slide, Reimu's hitbox also shrinks.

Spirit Combo Attack

A follow-up technique that can be performed after executing a sliding move. From the slide, pressing no directional input and the X button results in Zenshinshoutenshuu, a forward upward kick. Pressing the X button while holding the same direction as the slide produces a Jump Kick. Pressing the X button while holding the opposite direction triggers Shoutenshuu, another upward-driving kick. Pressing the Z button instead unleashes a rapid series of ofuda strikes in an erratic chain. With precise timing, Shoutenshuu can be repeated up to three consecutive times, allowing multiple chained hits, though this does not apply to the Jump Kick or ofuda barrage.

Control Scheme

Immaterial and Missing Power can be played using either a keyboard or a gamepad.

For Player 1 using a keyboard, the default controls are:

Arrow Keys — move the character
Z — corresponds to A
X — corresponds to B
C — corresponds to C
V — corresponds to D

Character movement is represented using a numpad layout: 7 8 9
4 5 6
1 2 3

6 — forward (toward the opponent)
4 — backward (away from the opponent)
2 — down/crouch
8 — up/jump
7, 9, 1, 3 — diagonals (can be simulated by pressing the two corresponding direction keys simultaneously)

Special inputs are performed by quickly pressing a sequence of directions followed by a button. For example:

66 — forward dash
236B — down, down-forward, forward, then B (default X key)

The number 5 indicates no directional input.

For keyboards without a numpad, diagonals are produced by pressing two directional keys simultaneously. For example, Down + Right = 3 on the numpad layout.

Button notation in most game documentation uses A/B/C/D, though older sources (like readme.txt) may use P/K/S instead:

P = A
K = B
S = C or D (context-dependent)

Movement

Forward Movement

Input: 6 The character is able to advance across the battlefield, allowing them to apply pressure, close distance, or reposition during combat.

Backward Movement

Input: 4 The character can retreat to create space, disengage from pressure, or reposition defensively.

Crouching

Input: 2 The character can lower their stance, granting access to low-profile actions and certain techniques while reducing their hit area against high attacks.

Standard Jump

Input: 7, 8, & 9 The character can leap into the air in multiple trajectories, enabling aerial attacks, evasive movement, and vertical repositioning.

Forward Dash

Input: 6 6 The character performs a rapid burst of forward movement. During this action, they briefly enter a grazing state, allowing them to pass through certain threats while advancing. Some characters will dash farther if 6 is held.

Backward Dash

Input: 4 4 The character quickly retreats with a burst of movement while entering a grazing state, providing both evasive mobility and defensive repositioning. Some characters will dash farther if 4 is held.

Super Jump

Input: 2 7, 2 8, & 2 9 The character executes a powerful leap that carries them higher and farther than a standard jump. This movement also applies grazing, making it effective for evasion and aerial control.

Air Dash

Input: 6 6 or 4 4 while in the air While airborne, the character can rapidly change their position midair. The number of air dashes available is limited until landing, with most characters performing 2 and Remilia being able to perform 3.

Basic Moves

Close Normal Attacks

Input: A / B All characters possess close-range melee attacks that change based on proximity to the opponent.

A: A fast, light melee strike used primarily for pressure and combo initiation.
B: A heavier melee attack with greater power or reach, often slower than A and commonly kick-based.

Far Normal Attacks

Input: fA / fB When performed at greater distance, A and B become projectile-based attacks instead of melee strikes.

fA: A standard projectile used for zoning and space control.
fB: A secondary projectile with different speed, trajectory, or behavior than fA.

Forward Normal Attacks

Input: 6A / 6B Enhanced melee attacks with increased reach and power compared to their neutral counterparts.

6A: A stronger forward-reaching strike.
6B: A heavier forward-reaching attack, often slower but more impactful.

Crouching Normal Attacks

Input: 2A / 2B Low-profile melee attacks that hit crouching opponents or strike low.

Bomb

Input: 22C The character deploys a bomb that knocks back nearby opponents. Bombs have limited stock and are replenished through item collection.

Spell Card Declaration

Input: 236D The character declares a Spell Card, entering a powerful state. The declaration grants temporary invincibility, with a brief vulnerable window at the start.

Special Move System

In addition to standard attacks, each character possesses a unique set of Special Moves. These techniques are executed through specific directional input sequences combined with attack inputs. While the exact techniques differ by character, the underlying input structures are largely standardized across the roster.

The available Special Moves and their corresponding input sequences are documented within in-game character profiles and practice interfaces.

Standard Special Move Inputs

Most characters utilize the following core directional sequences for their Special Moves:

'236A/B/C (🢃🢆🢂)
623A/B/C (🢂🢃🢆)
214A/B/C (🢃🢇🢀)
421A/B/C (🢀🢃🢇)

Each input may produce different results depending on whether A, B, or C is used.

Item Collection

When a character is struck, any active projectiles she has on the screen are converted into collectible items and are immediately claimed by the opposing fighter. These items fall into two categories:

Spirit Items — Small blue squares labeled with “霊” (Spirit). Collecting these increases the fighter’s spirit gauge and they are the most frequently obtained item.

Bomb Items — Large green squares marked with a “B”. Collecting one increases the fighter’s bomb stock, up to a maximum of two bombs at any time.

Additionally, whenever a character is knocked down, the opponent automatically receives multiple spirit items. Roughly every third knockdown also grants the opponent a bomb item.

Blocking

When an attack connects, a character can defend by holding a backward direction (1, 4, or 7). Successfully blocking greatly reduces incoming damage, often negating it entirely, though certain situations may apply penalties.

Melee attacks that are blocked under the correct conditions incur no penalty. However, some melee attacks require a specific blocking state—standing, crouching, or airborne—to be blocked properly. If such an attack is blocked in the wrong state, the block is considered incorrect. In these cases, the block effect appears red instead of blue, and the defending character suffers a loss to health and/or spirit.

Guard crush attacks (22A and 22B) follow special rules. If they are not blocked, they function as strong melee attacks. When blocking, 22A must be blocked while standing, and 22B must be blocked while crouching. Blocking either attack incorrectly results in the immediate loss of all spirit.

Projectiles that can be grazed cannot be blocked correctly. Blocking these projectiles causes minor health damage—sometimes limited to the red portion of the health bar—and also applies a spirit penalty.

In Story Mode, later bosses frequently use Spell Cards that feature unblockable projectiles. These attacks must be avoided through grazing or manual movement. Some Spell Cards include projectiles that cannot be blocked or grazed at all, requiring the character to fully move out of their path to avoid taking damage.

Spirit Power

Spirit Power (霊力) governs a character’s ability to fire projectiles, defend against attacks, execute special moves, and activate Spell Cards. The current amount is shown on the Spirit Gauge (霊力ゲージ) at the lower-left of the screen. Different actions consume different amounts of spirit. If no spirit is spent for a short period, the gauge will begin to recover automatically, with spirit items accelerating this regeneration.

When a character’s Spirit Power is fully depleted, the gauge turns red. While in this state, the character cannot use projectiles or special moves until the gauge has fully refilled. If spirit is exhausted as a result of an incorrect block, the character is also briefly stunned. During spirit depletion, sA and sB lose their enhanced properties and function the same as A and B. Spirit recovery continues normally, and spirit items still restore gauge value.

Blocking behavior also changes while spirit is drained. Melee attacks can only be blocked correctly; even when blocked properly, the character still takes health damage using a distinct block animation. If a melee attack is blocked incorrectly, it will connect as though no block was attempted. Projectiles may only be blocked while grounded; airborne blocking is ineffective, and the projectile will hit regardless.

Grazing

Grazing occurs when a character is dashing, super jumping, or performing specific actions that allow them to temporarily avoid damage. While grazing, projectiles pass through the character without dealing harm, and in some cases, the projectile is destroyed upon contact.

Certain high-level attacks, especially from endgame Story Mode bosses, feature Spell Cards with unblockable and ungrazeable projectiles. These attacks cannot be avoided by standard grazing, requiring the character to manually move out of the projectile’s path to prevent damage.

Spell Cards

Spell Cards are powerful, visually striking attacks that characters can use once they have accumulated enough Sign Power (符力), displayed near the Spirit Gauge. Each character can select two Spell Cards prior to a fight: one for the first (white) health bar, called the First Sign (壱符), and one for the second (red) health bar, called the Second Sign (弐符). Second Signs are typically enhanced versions of the First Sign, though some may be entirely unique.

Accumulating Sign Power is achieved by dealing or receiving damage, as well as collecting items. When a character declares a Spell Card (by pressing 22D), their background darkens, a seal appears beneath them, and a timer starts. If the timer reaches zero, the declaration ends, preventing further Sign Power accumulation for that round.

Activating a Spell Card is usually done with 236D, though some have an alternate 214D input. Certain Spell Cards may require an additional input to deal damage. There is a brief vulnerability window at the start of the animation; if the character is hit, the Spell Card is canceled, wasting one Sign Power. Once successfully activated, the character becomes briefly invincible. Using a Spell Card consumes both Sign Power and Spirit Power, though declarations may continue if Sign Power is depleted, except in specific cases like Marisa's Final Spark, which consumes all resources and ends the declaration after one use.

Spell Card images include corner symbols indicating their function: a circle for ranged, a sword for melee, and a crescent moon for special utility effects. The top right corner indicates whether the card is a First Sign or Second Sign.

Control Scheme

Scarlet Weather Rhapsody can be played using either a keyboard or a gamepad.

For Player 1 on keyboard, the default inputs are configured as follows:

Arrow Keys — character movement
Z — A button
X — B button
C — C button
A — D button
S — A+B input
D — B+C input
Q — Pause

Movement notation follows the standard numpad-style directional layout:

7 8 9 4 5 6 1 2 3

6 represents forward movement (toward the opponent)
4 represents backward movement (away from the opponent)
2 represents downward movement or crouching
8 represents upward movement or jumping
7, 9, 1, and 3 represent diagonal directions

Directional notation always assumes the character is positioned on the left side of the screen. As a result, “forward” and “backward” reverse depending on screen position, but the numerical notation remains consistent.

Diagonal directions can be produced on a keyboard by pressing two directional keys simultaneously. For example, pressing Up and Right at the same time corresponds to 9, while Down and Left corresponds to 1.

Special actions are executed by inputting rapid directional sequences followed by a button press. For example:

66 indicates a forward dash
236B indicates a down, down-forward, forward motion followed by the B button

The number 5 is occasionally used in notation to explicitly indicate a neutral state with no directional input.

For keyboards without a physical numpad, directional inputs are still represented using this system, with diagonals achieved through simultaneous key presses.

Most in-game documentation uses the A/B/C/D notation for button inputs. However, some older references may instead use P, K, and S:

P corresponds to A
K corresponds to B
S may refer to either C or D, depending on context

Forward Movement

The character can move toward the opponent to close distance or apply pressure. Input: 6

Backward Movement

The character can move away from the opponent to create space or reposition defensively. Input: 4

Crouching

The character can lower their stance, enabling low-profile movement and access to crouching actions. Input: 2

Standard Jump

The character can jump backward, vertically, or forward, allowing aerial movement and attacks. Input: 7 (backward jump), 8 (neutral jump), 9 (forward jump)

Forward Dash

The character performs a rapid forward movement. During this action, the character enters a grazing state, allowing certain projectiles to pass through. Input: 66 Alternate Input: D + 6 Note: Holding the forward direction may cause some characters to dash farther.

Backward Dash

The character performs a rapid backward movement while entering a grazing state, providing evasive mobility. Input: 44 Alternate Input: D + 4 Note: Holding the backward direction may cause some characters to dash farther.

Super Jump

The character executes an enhanced jump that travels higher and farther than a standard jump while applying grazing. Input: 27, 28, or 29 Alternate Input: D + 7, D + 8, or D + 9

Air Dash

While airborne, the character can perform a rapid burst of movement forward or backward. The number of air dashes is limited before landing, with most characters able to perform two by default. Certain conditions, such as Wind weather, may increase this limit. Air dashes do not consume Spirit Power and cover a fixed distance. Air dashes and flight share the same usage limit. Using one reduces the remaining opportunities for the other before landing. For example, performing an air dash reduces the number of available flight actions, and vice versa. This shared limitation also applies under special conditions such as Wind weather. Input (airborne): 66 (forward), 44 (backward)

Flight

While airborne, the character can enter a sustained movement state that allows controlled flight. During flight, the character is considered to be grazing but consumes Spirit Power over time. Flight continues as long as the input is held or until Spirit Power is depleted. Input (airborne): D + direction

Common flight directions include:

Forward Flight: 6 + D
Backward Flight: 4 + D
Upward Flight: 8 + D
Downward Flight: 2 + D
Diagonal Flight: 7/9/1/3 + D

While flying, the character can change direction mid-flight by switching directional inputs while continuing to hold D.

Basic Attacks

All characters possess a standard set of basic attacks. Certain attacks change properties depending on whether the input is tapped or held. A tapped A input is referred to as "A", while a held A input is referred to as "[A]".

Additionally, some attacks vary based on distance. Pressing A while very close to the opponent results in one version, while pressing A at a farther distance produces a different version (the exact distance varies by character). The close-range version is referred to as "A", while the farther version is referred to as "f.A".

Inputs

A

A fast melee attack.

f.A

A slightly slower melee attack with increased reach and power compared to A.

6A

A slower but significantly longer-reaching and more powerful melee attack.

2A

A fast, low-hitting melee attack that does not change based on distance.

3A

Functionally similar to 6A, but hits low instead of mid.

8A

An airborne-only melee attack that generally strikes upward.

6[A] / 3[A]

Guard Crush attacks. These are performed by holding the A button while using the respective directional input.

B

A light projectile attack.

6B

A variant of B that is aimed higher.

2B

A variant of B that is aimed lower.

C

A heavier projectile attack with different properties from B.

6C

A heavier projectile attack that is usually aimed straight forward.

2C

A heavier projectile attack that is usually aimed upward.

All of the above attacks also have aerial variants when performed while airborne.

Charged Projectiles

Most projectile attacks can be charged by holding the input button ([B] or [C]). Charged projectiles typically release additional bullets or enhanced effects. An audible sound cue plays when a charged projectile or a Guard Crush attack is successfully executed.

Dashing Attacks

These are attacks performed during a forward dash. They are generally dashing melee attacks that move the character forward farther than standard attacks. Depending on the character, these attacks may also apply grazing.

Attack properties, ranges, speeds, and behaviors can vary significantly between characters, and many general rules have character-specific exceptions.

Input: 66 + A / B / C

Special Moves

The character possesses a set of SpecialMoves distinct from standard attacks. These techniques are executed through specific directional input sequences combined with attack inputs. The exact effects and behavior of each technique depend on the character.

In some cases, the same technique may be executed through more than one input sequence. Likewise, input sequences that produce a technique for one character may not produce the same result for another character.

The following notation is used when listing Special Technique inputs: - “>” indicates sequential inputs. - “Hold” indicates the input is held rather than tapped. - “+” indicates inputs performed simultaneously.

The availability and behavior of these Special Techniques vary by character. This section reflects common input structures rather than guaranteed results.

Grounded Special Technique Inputs

Blocking

Standard
The character is able to guard against incoming attacks by holding a backward direction. Successful blocking greatly reduces or negates damage, though certain conditions may result in penalties.

Melee attacks can be blocked correctly, preventing penalties entirely. However, some melee attacks require the character to be in a specific state—standing, crouching, or airborne—to be blocked correctly. Blocking such an attack in an incorrect state results in a spirit penalty. Incorrect blocks are visually indicated by a red block effect and accompanied by an audible cue.

Guard Crush
Certain attacks function as Guard Crush techniques. When unblocked, these attacks behave as powerful melee strikes. When blocked, each Guard Crush attack has a required blocking state. Blocking a Guard Crush attack incorrectly results in the temporary loss of a spirit orb and leaves the character briefly vulnerable.

Projectile and Special Attack Interaction
Standard grazable projectiles cannot be blocked correctly. Blocking these attacks results in a spirit penalty. Special attacks and Spell Card techniques additionally inflict chip damage to the character’s health alongside spirit damage when blocked.

Border Escape

The character can perform a Border Escape to disengage while trapped in a guarding state. This action allows the character to reposition by escaping in a chosen direction, creating space or avoiding continued pressure.

Executing a Border Escape consumes one spirit orb as a cost for its use.

Spirit

Spirit is a resource required to fire projectiles and activate certain special techniques. Rather than a single continuous gauge, spirit is represented by multiple individual orbs that are consumed when these actions are performed.

When spirit is not actively used, depleted orbs gradually regenerate over time. However, if the character suffers a guard crush or performs a Border Escape, one spirit orb becomes temporarily disabled and cannot be used until it naturally recovers.

While spirit orbs are disabled, the character retains access to projectiles, special techniques, and flight, but with reduced capacity. As more orbs are rendered unusable, available offensive and mobility options become increasingly limited. In this weakened state, the character is also more susceptible to further guard crushes, as spirit penalties apply regardless of how many active orbs remain.

Grazing

Grazing is a defensive state that occurs during certain movement actions, such as rapid movement or aerial maneuvers. While grazing, incoming projectiles pass through the character without dealing damage.

In some cases, successfully grazing a projectile will also cause the projectile to be neutralized. Grazing is primarily used to bypass projectile pressure while maintaining mobility.

Spell Cards

Spell Cards are powerful, one-time-use abilities that can be activated during combat. Characters assemble a "deck" of 20 Cards, which gradually become available as the character deals or takes damage. Deck composition is customizable in the Player Profile, but must always contain exactly 20 Cards.

Activation is performed by pressing B and C simultaneously. Characters can switch between available Cards by pressing A and B simultaneously.

Cards are divided into three types:

System Cards: Include bombs, weather changes, and other utility effects that can influence the flow of battle.
Skill Cards: Enhance or modify a character's special attacks, providing alternate attacks or increased damage output.
Spell Cards: High-damage attacks that automatically execute once activated, such as Marisa's Master Spark or Reimu's Fantasy Seal.

Some Spell Cards require multiple Cards in hand to activate, while others can be used with fewer. Availability is indicated by a glowing border around the Card's image.

Forward Movement

The character can advance toward the opponent by moving in a forward direction, allowing them to close distance, apply pressure, or reposition offensively. Input: 6

Backward Movement

The character can retreat away from the opponent to create space, disengage, or reposition defensively. Input: 4

Downward Flight

The character can fly downward at varying angles, enabling evasive descent, vertical repositioning, or angle-based spacing. Inputs:

Backward-downward flight: 1
Straight downward flight: 2
Forward-downward flight: 3

Upward Flight

The character can fly upward at varying angles, allowing aerial control, vertical pressure, and repositioning above the opponent. Inputs:

Backward-upward flight: 7
Straight upward flight: 8
Forward-upward flight: 9

Forward Dash

The character performs a rapid forward dash while entering a grazing state, allowing them to pass through projectiles unharmed. Holding the direction extends the dash, and sustained input causes the dash to accelerate after a brief moment. Input: 66 (Hold 6 to extend)

Backward Dash

The character quickly retreats while grazing, providing evasive movement and defensive repositioning. Holding the direction extends the dash duration. Input: 44 (Hold 4 to extend)

Dash Steering

While dashing, the character can slightly alter their flight path vertically, allowing finer control over movement during extended dashes. Inputs: 2 or 8 during a dash

Natural Hover Adjustment

When not dashing, attacking, or blocking, the character gradually returns toward their default vertical position, maintaining the game’s aerial combat flow.

Standard Moves

Each character possesses a core set of standard attacks. Inputs using the A and B buttons perform melee attacks, while inputs using the X and Y buttons perform projectile-based attacks.

Light Melee Attacks

Pressing the A button performs a fast, short-ranged melee strike. Repeatedly pressing A after a successful hit initiates an automatic combo. The fourth and final hit of an auto-combo is treated as a heavy melee finisher, equivalent to a B-button attack.

Holding a direction before the fourth hit alters the finishing move. The B button may also be used for the fourth hit, though the resulting attack remains the same. Input: A (Repeated for auto-combo)

Heavy Melee Attacks

Pressing the B button performs a powerful melee attack with greater impact. Holding a directional input modifies the attack performed. Inputs:

Neutral heavy attack: B
Directional heavy attacks: 2B, 4B, 6B, 8B

Dashing Attacks

Melee attacks can be performed during a forward dash. Executing an attack during a standard dash produces a dashing strike. Inputs:

Dash light attack: 66A
Dash heavy attack: 66B

If the forward dash is held until a blue burst appears, stronger alternate dash attacks become available. Inputs:

Charged dash light attack: 6[6]A
Charged dash heavy attack: 6[6]B

Projectile Attacks

Projectile attacks are executed using the X and Y buttons. X performs a light projectile attack, while Y performs a heavier version. As with heavy melee attacks, holding a direction changes the projectile’s behavior or trajectory. Inputs:

Light projectile attack: X / Direction + X
Heavy projectile attack: Y / Direction + Y

Special Moves

Beyond standard attacks, each character has a selection of special moves that are unique to them. The specific properties, effects, and behaviors of these moves vary greatly depending on the character.

Inputs

Special moves are executed by combining a directional input with either A+B or X+Y. For ease of use, the C and Z buttons act as shortcuts for these combined inputs.

Each character has two distinct sets of special moves:

First set: Direction + A+B (or C)
Second set: Direction + X+Y (or Z)

Blocking

A character can defend against incoming attacks by holding a backward direction (1, 4, or 7) at the moment they are hit. Successfully blocking greatly reduces incoming damage, and in many cases prevents damage entirely, though certain attacks impose additional costs.

Blocking light melee or light projectile attacks carries no penalty. Blocking heavy melee or heavy projectile attacks, however, will consume a portion of the character’s spirit meter.

Barrier Guard

If the character blocks immediately before an attack connects, a blue barrier will appear around the character. This technique, known as Barrier Guard, pushes the opponent back farther than a normal block.

When Barrier Guard is triggered on the first hit of a multi-hit attack, all remaining hits will be automatically Barrier Guarded as well. If the initial hits are blocked normally, the character can still transition into Barrier Guard by tapping back again during blockstun.

Spirit

Spirit governs the use of projectile attacks and certain special moves. It is displayed as a meter at the bottom of the screen on each fighter’s side. When Spirit is spent, the consumed portion turns red and will begin regenerating after a brief delay.

Blocking heavy melee or projectile attacks temporarily lowers a fighter’s maximum available Spirit. This reduced maximum will slowly recover over time as long as the fighter is not continuing to block.

If a fighter’s maximum Spirit is completely depleted, leaving no usable Spirit available, being struck by specific melee attacks will result in a guard crush. A guard-crushed character is knocked away and briefly left unable to act.

Grazing

While dashing forward or backward, a character enters a grazing state. During this state, incoming projectiles will pass through the character without dealing damage or causing hitstun, allowing them to move through projectile attacks safely.

Faith

Faith is a system tied to Skill Cards that modifies how a character’s normal attacks and projectiles behave. Each equipped Skill Card may add to or subtract from one of four possible faiths: Shinto, Buddhism, Taoism, or None. A character’s active faith determines a set of advantages and drawbacks that influence projectile and melee behavior.

Faith
Shintoism	Pros - Number of projectiles increases. Projectiles now gain the ability to home in on opponents. Cons - Projectiles have weaker penetration when colliding opponent projectiles. Projectiles disappear much easier when grazed.
Buddhism	Pros - Projectile stunlock time increases. Projectile size increases. Strong melee attacks can now be charged. Cons - Projectile range decreases.
Taoism	Pros - Projectile speed increases. Projectiles penetrate enemy blocks easier. Projectiles disappears much harder when grazed. Cons - Projectile size decreases.
None	Pros - Has none of the penalties of other faiths. Cons - Has none of the benefits of other faiths.

Faith selection is handled through the deck toggle on the character selection screen. Faith cards are diamond-shaped with a marble-like pattern and feature a single kanji symbol. Shinto is yellow with a purple 哀, Buddhism is cyan with an orange 怒, Taoism is magenta with a green 喜, and None is purple with a yellow 楽.

一直線に飛んでいくお札の束を投げつける

上に装備すると上に、下に装備すると下に向け発射
弾足よし、威力よしで、消費以外欠点らしい

欠点は存在しないといってもよい万能技

Translation

Throws out a bundle of talismans that flies in a straight line.

If you equip it to up, it shoots upward, and if you equip it to down, it shoots downward.

It has good bullet speed and good damage, so it's a really all-around move that doesn't have much weakness except its consumption.

あっさり消滅する欠点ともなっている

Translation

Throws out several talismans,

and creates a barrier using them as the corners.
The barrier itself, being huge and strong, can be troublesome,

タイムラグを利用した同時攻撃としても活躍

Translation

A frontal shot that fires amulets which then divide

into small bullets and shoot forward over a wide area.
They're weak after spreading out, but it can be an important move, since the quantity of them provides cover

博麗の巫女の代名詞の一つである

Translation

Moves within the Spell Card system are declared with the first use,

and when reused in the available time period it will activate.
It's a disposable yet powerful special move.

世の中そう上手くは行かない

Translation

She forms a great barrier to stop all who come hear her

and attack with a wide scope with Reimu as the center.
The ones who jump into this attack are, without fail, attacked back instead,
but after the declaration, people will often aim to bring about a counterattack;

however, the world doesn't work out that well.

人気が極限まで高まった際のテンションに任せて

放たれる霊夢のラストワード
相手の直接打撃を捌いて隙を作り
大量の札弾を叩き込んで決着を付ける
相手の打撃に合わせないとこちらが隙を晒して人気を失うだけなので

ハイリスクハイリターンの極み

Translation

It's the Last Word of Reimu who has let herself flow with the tension after her popularity has risen to its limits.

She handles the opponent's direct hit and creates a chance
during which she throws in a vast amount of talisman bullets to settle the fight.

If you don't match it up with the opponent's hits, it'll be their chance and you'll just lose popularity, so it's the extremity of high risk, high return.

Other

Standard Tactics: Reimu has a "better strike before they do" philosophy to attacking^[1099]. She will notably go for constant bullet-hell spam on an opponent while using several techniques such as Fantasy Seal, Duplex Barrier, etcetera. Some abilities of Reimu activate without her even realizing it, such as teleportation and Innate Dream where she floats above reality.

Weaknesses

Note

The reason for Reimu's physicality being 10-A is that Reimu herself is not physically a superhuman in terms of physical strength. Objects like statues are still considered heavy for her^[1118]. Characters physically comparable to her like Marisa can still be hurt by tigers with injuries serious enough to where her arm would need to be amputated if a special healing doctor wasn't around^[1119]. Reimu is unable to break bamboo and needs Fujiwara no Mokou to cut it in half with her bare hands^[1120]. We also see in official art when she's doing a spiritual attack it does much more damage to the environment then what she can do normally with physical strikes. Thus due to this and how Touhou clearly shows there's a difference between physical strength and spiritual strength, Reimu's physicality is that of a human while her spirituality is superhuman.
Any translations from en.tohouwiki.net are considered fine to use as they all fall under Project Translations, a fan translation team that have translation guuidelines and rulesets, along with moderators that directly overlook and proofread English translations to check for machine translations.
Yumemi's statements can be taken with credibility, not only do the science from her world surpass the main one by 500 years^[1121] where she notes the science of the main world is much more primitive then hers^[1122], but her world has already fully proven the existence of Grand Unified Theory and Yumemi herself notes that her theory was proven right by seeing magic.
Spell Card Rules officially started during the events of Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, all events^[1123].
Despite Gensou Narratograph being directly noted to be an "unofficial Touhou tabletop RPG", ZUN has directly participated in the RPG and noted the way Reimu acts during his session is how canon Reimu would act^[1124], thus character actions done by him and mechanics are fine to use.
Even if characters have not showcased using a bomb, they should all be able to use bombs, as bombs are realistically just spiritual attacks^[735] and to even be able to fight the non-human entities, requires a weapon with an unnatural amount of spiritual power such as the Yin-Yang Orb^[1125], meaning everyone that is non-human or is fighting non-humans is using spiritual energy.

Special Notes

Many spell card images and descriptions along with translations are heavily helped by the Touhou Wiki.

Explanations

Canoncity of Touhou Project

The Touhou Project franchise canoncity mainly falls under any media worked on by ZUN are official and canon to the overall lineup.

There are various aspects constantly debated about within the canon:

PC-98

Media like PC-98, has been noted by ZUN to be ignored as one can ignore derivative works^[1126]. He has also said that anything prior to Embodiment of Scarlet Devil can for the most part be ignored and one can think of Embodiment of Scarlet Devil as the starting from a clean slate and starting a new series^[1127], he's also referred to Highly Responsive to Prayers as a study product^[1128]. With this in mind, one would assume that PC-98 is thus non-canon to the Windows continuity of games.

However, ZUN has also directly stated PC-98 games are the same world as the Windows Games, stating that any contradictions that exist from PC-98 can be ignored from the retcon in Windows Era^[1129]. While one argues ZUN noting the works are derivative works to be ignored and Embodiment of the Scarlet Devil should be seen as the starting point, these statements are moreso telling a fan to not worry about having to play PC-98 games or learn more about their stories.

It's also been noted in Embodiment of Scarlet Devil's おまけ.txt that the game chronologically is not too far from the previous title, which would be Mystic Square, the PC-98 title^[37]. ZUN has also directly brought back characters from PC-98 games, noting he wanted to bring back characters from before Embodiment of Scarlet Devil and notes any of the other older characters that don't appear have probably retired by now and are warmly watching over things from various places nowadays^[1130]. When asked where Mima from PC-98 has gone, ZUN notes that he doesn't bring them back due to making things complicated and having potentially angry fans ask where she has been the entire time, he has also noted that there's not much use for characters like Genji as Reimu can fly now and also notes he is not dead^[1131]. ZUN has also made mention to Genji probably living in the lake in the back of the shrine^[1132]. In Touhou Sangetsusei ~ Strange and Bright Nature Deity, Reimu and Marisa were talking about glowing moss with Reimu saying it would be nice to transfer it to the pond in the back of the Hakurei Shrine and Marisa saying that she could make it grow there on the turtles' back, referencing Genji^[1133].

In Touhou 07 Perfect Cherry Blossom, when Alice meets Reimu, she tells her long time no see, noting that they've met before calling her "old friend"^[1109]. In Yuuka's mode in Touhou Project - Phantasmagoria of Flower View, Reimu directly references defeating Yuuka back in PC-98^[1134]. If Yuuka defeats Marisa in the same game, she will note that Marisa has grown up quite a bit, when the last time she's seen her has been in PC-98^[1135].

Seeing as ZUN himself has directly said both PC-98 and Windows are in the same world and that characters directly acknowledged PC-98 events and reference characters from it, PC-98 is completely canon and any contradictions PC-98 have can be ignored.

Side Games Time Placements

Touhou 7.5 - Immaterial and Missing Power takes place between Perfect Cherry Blossom and Imperishable Night^[1136].

Multiple Playable Routes

In the series, there are multiple playable character routes, including some where the characters fight Reimu herself and defeat her, calling question into what route is canon. ZUN has elaborated that canonically, anytime Reimu and the gang are defeated, they challenge again however many times they want, but on the youkai side, they do not challenge again after being defeated and are not attached to the results of winning or losing^[128].

In terms of how playable routes have went, some examples of canonically noted routes:

With some of these examples, it is normally assumed that in some way Reimu has some part in resolving every incident and other routes are dubiously canon depending on what transpired.

Spell Card Rules

There are many cases of weaker humans beating stronger Yokai or vice versa within the Touhou series, this has been elaborated on in Reimu's profile on Perfect Memento in Strict Sense. Reimu introduced the spell card rules as the youkai had no way to defeat the Hakurei shrine maiden, making many youkai feel that their meaning to exist have dissapeared^[52]. The rules incoporate the following:

Spell cards are techniques specially-named by the individual, and they must be declared upon use.
The number of each party's spell cards must be determined in advance of a duel.
The first party to have all of their spell cards beaten must admit defeat.
The victor is entitled only to what was agreed upon before the duel. If they're not interested in what their opponent has to offer, they can refuse a duel.
Winners should generally allow losers a rematch.
Always prepare for the unexpected.

The original draft held these rules^[1140]:

Combatants will give names and meanings to the duel for the benefit of beauty.
Combatants will declare the number of named duels before beginning.
Combatants may not repeat attacks by relying on stamina.
Combatants may not deliver attacks that do not have meaning. The meaning itself becomes the attack's power.
In the case that a combatant loses a named duel, that combatant will admit defeat, even if he or she has strength remaining. No combatant may kill a human, even upon victory.
Combatants will write the duel's name on paper in the format of a contract. By doing so, the above-mentioned rules become absolute. These papers will be called spell cards.

These rules allows for duels that feel almost like sport rather then a match, and have allowed for weaker fighters to challenge stronger ones, due to this though, it also has become possible for youkai to freely defeat Reimu without worrying about the consequences.

Due to them being written into cards and essentially affecting the ability and power of an attack, the spell cards are likely the thing binding attacks to specific properties.

Parallel Worlds

Parallel Worlds is a topic brought up at some points in the Touhou Project franchise, they are worlds called "Probability Worlds" by Yumemi, stating that those and parallel worlds are one and the same^[1141]. This essentially means that parallel worlds in Touhou are based on the concept of probability. Yumemi and Chiyuri use a "Probability Space Hypervessel" in order to travel to alternate worlds and time periods^[1142], further showcasing that probabiliy serves an importance.

Magical vs. Physical Strength

There^[1143] are^[1144] multiple^[1145] occasions^[1146] ofref name="Meiji University talkshow Dawn of Touhou Reimu the Strongest"> Meiji University talkshow "Dawn of Touhou" "Q: Who's the strongest in Gensokyo?
ZUN: "Absolutely, ...isn't it Reimu? Although it seems obvious.""</ref> characters^[1147] commenting^[1148] on^[1149] humans like^[1150] Reimu^[1151] being strong^[1152]. Despite this Reimu showcases physical strength that isn't superhuman, such as the fact that she cannot cut a bamboo stick while Fujiwara direclty does in front of her.

This is due to the difference between magical and physical strength.

In works like Symposium of Post-mysticism, Yuugi Hoshiguma's profile has Suika directly state that Yuugi is weaker then her in magical powers, but stronger than her physically^[1153], lining a clear difference between magical and physical strength.

While one can be physically stronger then another, such as how Onis are physically the strongest, magic users are still able to keep up with them due to using a different form of attack.

An example can be found with Yuugi herself, when Reimu fights against her in Subterranean Animism^[1154], with her acknolwedging her strength^[1155], something Yuugi only does to those who are truly strong^[1153]. This establishes even with spellcard rules, Yuugi considers Reimu a strong fighter. Reimu herself is very clearly not at an oni's physical strength, as she cannot do the things they can, however, her magical strength allows her to keep up with them.

To defend against magical based properties requires Non-Standard Defenses as it is acknowledged as not being something of standard physicality.

The Three Layers of Reality

In Chapter 27 of Curiosities of Lotus Asia, Reimu proceeds to explain how reality works to Rinnosuke and Marisa, where she explains in-depth the three layers of reality.

This conversation started from discussing the mechanism of fortune, where Rinnosuke attempted to posit that the future is predetermined and that Reimu's luck was her being able to calculate in an instant the predetermined future, however Reimu had a different explanation requiring her to lecture on the mechanisms of probability^[586], in her explanation, the world is made up of three layers: the physical layer that moves in accuracy with the laws of physics, the second layer that moves with the spirit, and the third layer of memory which is the recollection of events that lies within all things^[98]. The memory layer rejects the loop of the physical and mental layers, the two layers the youkai conceive of the world which is why they believe history repeats itself and the future is predetermined. Since it's only possible to add to the memory layer, it's possible to completely recreate the past.

While the physical layer follows the laws of physics, the mental layer interprets the outcomes and the memory layer alters the probability, essentially creating the future, since it's impossible for memories to raech the same state as a point in the past, the future is not predetermined, thus when Reimu is able to predict how the dice will fall, she's not predicting the fall of the dice, the dice members the fact that she predicted how the dice would fall, thus due to this, Reimu entering the memory of the die-face greatly skews the results in Reimu's favor, where the results side with Reimu^[587].

Thus the memory layer is essentially the most important layer that rejects the notion of loops from the previous two layers.

Dream vs. Reality

In the Touhou Project series, it is made very apparent that dream and reality are in truth one and the same.

In Changeability of Strange Dream, Maribel Hearn has a conversation with Renko Usami about how she is bringing objects out of her dreams^[1156], which Maribel posits that truth exists within subjectivity, if one can see the same sights over and over again then that's the kind of place it is as such dreams are nothing like the antonym of reality^[1157], where much longer ago people did not draw a distinction between dreams and reality^[1158], with Maribel reiterating that dreams and reality are the same^[1159].

In Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom it is shown that the Dream World is a separate plane^[1160], that in games like Antinomy of Common Flower are shown to have influence^[1161] on reality^[1162].

In the Urban Legends in Limbo finale, Sumireko notes that she is able to travel between the human world and Gensokyo whenver she sleeps, where her dream self enters Gensokyo^[1163] making her innately unable to be interacted with^[1164].

Reimu has trained herself to attack with ofuda, her spirit power, and martial arts. These all proved useless against her enemies this time, though, so she's a bit worried. Currently, she is the only person at the shrine.

Eternal Shrine Maiden

Reimu Hakurei

Shrine maiden of the Hakurei Shrine, and protagonist of the Touhou series. She appears quite carefree on the outside, and indeed deep down, she really is carefree. She lives in her shrine and is rarely visited by anyone, which causes her to be out of touch with current social norms. Even though she only extinguished certain sparks of conflict because they seemed to befall her without warning, her actions have generally resulted in preventing the residents of Gensokyo from visiting human settlements, and keeping outsiders away from wandering into Gensokyo.

Charms and the yin-yang orb are her weapons. Additionally, she has the ability to fly in the air.

The protagonist.

Chronologically, this title isn't too far from the previous title, thus her age stays the same as before.

There is nothing special about her being a shrine maiden. Or rather, she's a shrine maiden only because the Touhou series has become the "Shrine Maiden Shooting Game" series. It feels like the cart has been placed before the horse to me.

This time, her outfit isn't overly intricate like typical shrine maiden clothing, but has become quite simple and only remotely resembles that of a shrine maiden. Is she really a shrine maiden?

She's more like "You, red-white!" in my opinion.

ZUN's comment from Dai Touhouten plaque (EoSD)

Our infamous protagonist. She appears throughout most of the series. In the 6th title of the series, EoSD, I changed Reimu's design a lot and she became quite different compared to Reimu in previous titles. You can say she's Reimu reintroduced.

She's supposed to be a powerhouse, yet she's unreliable here and there. She's supposed to be the youkai exterminator, yet she's more liked by youkai than humans in comparison. With those traits, she shows her charm through such frivolity. If Reimu were the conventional type of protagonist who's dead serious about justice while having tons of companions, we'd be talking about a completely different story that is nothing like Touhou.

泣く子も黙る主人公です。殆どの作品に登場します。六作品目に当たる紅魔郷ですが、それ以前の霊夢とは若干設定を変えて、再スタートした霊夢です。

強大の力を持っている筈なのに、どこか頼りなく、妖怪退治をしているはずなのに人間よりも妖怪に慕われやすい所に、不真面目な魅力を感じます。霊夢が主人公にありがちの、正義感があり真面目で悩むと仲間の多い人間だったら、東方は全く別の話になってたんでしょうね。

Wonderful Shrine Maiden of Paradise, Reimu Hakurei

Hakurei Shrine's shrine maiden, and the protagonist. Her mind might appear normal, but in fact it's like spring in full bloom. The shrine is always haunted by youkai, and they're very friendly to Reimu as well. She's hardly performing the role of a shrine maiden at this point. She hates training, and because of this, lacks ability. So her skill is quite so-so. She hates to do her very best at anything that falls upon her. That's because she doesn't believe that effort will be rewarded. Because of that, the Hakurei Shrine's paper fortune doesn't have "Least luck" (末吉) [Typically, a shrine's paper fortune has Best luck (大吉), Medium luck (中吉), Little luck (小吉), Least luck (末吉), Misfortune (凶) and Worst misfortune (大凶). "末吉" is usually interpreted as "You'll get exactly as your effort"]

Charms and the yin-yang orb are her weapons. Additionally, she has the ability to fly in the air.

She has a smaller hit box, and her focused movement allows player to dodge very precisely. Spirit Sign's "Hakurei Amulet" is quite easy to use. It allows you to focus on dodging bullets. On the other hand, Dream Sign's "Extermination" wields destructive power of the highest class. Bosses are killed quickly, but the invincibility duration of her bombs is the shortest of all characters. It's also lacking in both effective radius and damage.

Wonderful Shrine Maiden of Paradise, Reimu Hakurei

She possess the ability to mainly fly in the air.

Basically, she's a shrine maiden. The shrine maiden of Hakurei Shrine, which is located on the boundary of Gensokyo. The Hakurei Shrine exists in both Gensokyo and the world of humans at the same time. The boundary is the home territory of the Hakurei Shrine. From both sides, it's located at a very remote place from human villages, and is also kind of small, and has no known history or benefits. So it's no wonder that it rarely gets any visitors. Inside the shrine, almost all foreign boundaries has been nullified. That alone should say that the Hakurei Boundary, the boundary between Gensokyo and the world of humans, is amazingly powerful.

Only those of the Hakurei have rules to follow in Gensokyo. Therefore, Reimu always wears clothes that's apparently some kind of uniform (she's supposed to have many other rules too, though...). Her daily routine consists of wearing red-white, staring at Gensokyo's sky from the edge of Gensokyo, and drinking tea.

By nature, Reimu can use various mysterious powers, but she doesn't use them or boast about them. Everything is, as is, after all.

ZUN's comment from Dai Touhouten plaque (PCB)

The protagonist that everyone knows without saying. It's winter so she put on gloves which is very unusual for her, but her overall clothing that makes one worry if she's gonna catch a cold is the same as usual. Exposing her shoulder throughout every season for the entire year is a proof of her determination. Additionally, her necktie, ribbon, and other small accessories are also different than what she had in EoSD, those are a reflection of Touhou Project's philosophy where the essence does not live in design details. Don't quote me on that though.

言わずと知れた主人公です。冬という事で珍しく手袋をしていますが、寒そうな格好はいつも通りですね。一年を通して肩を出しているのは気合いが入っている証拠です。その他も、ネクタイやリボンなど細かいパーツが紅魔郷の時と異なっていますが、これはデザインの細かい設定に本質は宿らないという、東方 Project の哲学によるものです。知らんけど。

Wonderful Shrine Maiden of Paradise

Reimu Hakurei

Species: Human
Location: Hakurei Shrine
Ability: Flying in the air

A typical shrine maiden from Hakurei Shrine. She always lives on ideas off the top of her head, and doesn't consider something seriously. The only thing she does that actually resembles a shrine maiden's duties is enjoying tea and life on the veranda.

She's quite simple-minded, thus when she's angry she's angry, and when she smiles she smiles. Her open personality makes her well-liked by both humans and youkai. Due to that, many people stay close to the shrine.

She lacks training in both melee and spells (or rather, she rarely does them), but she covers that up with the numerous talents she's born with. So she's quite tough, enough to make you wonder if she's really a human. While she warps or uses guided shots, it's all straight from her perspective. What a mean shrine maiden.

Wonderful Shrine Maiden of Paradise, Reimu Hakurei

Hakurei Shrine's Shrine Maiden. A human that lives on the boundary. She has the ability to fly in the air.

She's the shrine maiden of the Hakurei Shrine, which is located at the edge of Gensokyo and (possibly) has ancient and honourable origins. She's emotional and noisy, and has a presence wherever she is, but she merges into her surroundings quite easily. Her ability is being able to fly, that is, being weightless. The gravity of Earth, any level of stress, and threats of power all mean nothing to her. Both her mind and body float in the sky of fantasy, a mysterious shrine maiden. However powerful the opponent is, that means nothing in her presence. As she evens out whatever status one has, she tends to attract anyone regardless of species, human or youkai.

Her weapons are amulets and a Yin-Yang orb. She is also preferred by mosquitoes.

Notes
She teams with Yukari this time. Focused speed only applies when she's used as a solo character. She lacks a bit in damage, but is quite easy to use and doesn't need much memorization. She's quite strong, especially against smaller enemies. In a word, dastardly.

Reimu Hakurei

Species: Human Ability: Mainly flying in the air

The all-too-familiar shrine maiden of the Hakurei Shrine located on the border of Gensokyo. The Hakurei Shrine itself exists simultaneously in both Gensokyo and the Outside World.

She treats everyone fairly and equally, which makes her well-liked by even the feared being such as youkai. On the flip side, she doesn't see anyone as a comrade. Since there are a great number of humans and youkai around her, there are instances where she works together with them, but even so, she usually does things by herself alone. She might just truly be a cold-hearted kind of human...

The morning that she was expecting to see after a full night's sleep didn't greet her. She thought that something very strange was going on, so she left the shrine to investigate. It's not unusual for her to go out at night, but going out at midnight just after having taken a full night's rest was most unusual. Anyway, nights always make her sleepy, so she'll be going back to bed once the issue is resolved. She followed a trail of power into a bamboo forest, and what she found were very familiar faces...

ZUN's comment from Dai Touhouten plaque (IN)

Our good old protagonist. Huh, is that a new haircut? (Note: "Cut your hair recently?" is often a filler phrase where you have nothing to say when greeting)

She appears as a playable and a boss character in this game. Although it splits the story into nuanced parallels when a character fills both playable and boss roles, since IN (and LoLK later on) are about the moon, I think this level of time loops is acceptable. Or not. I don't know.

いつもの主人公です。あれ、髪切った？

今作品ではボスとしても登場します。プレイヤーキャラがボスとして登場すると、ストーリーはパラレルになったスッキリしなくなってしまうのですが、永夜抄は(後の紺珠伝も)月が関わっているので、そのくらいのループは許される気がしてます。知らんけど。

She's the kind of shrine maiden that's ever-so-carefree and doesn't think about anything. Whenever a disturbance occurs, she'd immediately rush to resolve it. Nevertheless, she'd never manage to rid herself of all disturbances around her. Rather, it might be the case that she attracts disturbances to herself.

The all-too-familiar shrine maiden of the Hakurei Shrine.

She treats everyone basically the same way. However, since her job is hunting youkai, she takes a fairly strict stance against youkai, but she's actually equally uninterested in humans and youkai.

This time, there's a conspiracy surrounding her gods. She may be their spokesperson, but her circumstances as a youkai hunter are different, so she feels a bit lost.

Her weapons are amulets and yin-yang balls. Her piety seems light.

Her fighting style generally relies on equipment that lends a sense of stability.

It was there, within the mountain distance away from the human village, in the far off country in the East—Gensokyo. It has been a while since it was separated from the outside world by the Barrier, which the youkai made. Things that were forgotten from this world, things that were no longer needed, have been gathered around at the place. Due to such nature, Gensokyo should have become a paradise for the youkai. Reimu Hakurei is too, one of the people residing in Gensokyo, who makes her living by exterminating youkai. "Huh? What's this, an interview? Do I have to say something? I mean, who're you anyway?"

The Advocate of the Myriad Gods, Reimu Hakurei

The normally calm humans and the always-energetic youkai are both in a state of excitement. Their blood is boiling for one reason. From here on, the shrine maiden and her rivals will be battling it out. Emerge victorious in this battle, and acquire unwavering popularity!

Special skill: Law of Universal Spirit Power

Reimu's spirit power gauge is longer than the other characters', so her maximum spirit power is increased. She can use more ranged attacks and special attacks, and even if she loses some spirit power while guarding attacks, she'll still have more in supply.

Last Word: Innate Dream

Reimu adopts a stance, and by taking an enemy melee attack, she creates an opening, and then surrounds the enemy with massive amounts of ofuda and annihilates them in her most powerful attack. If it's at point-blank range, guarding against it is impossible, so it's also easy to wear down and flatten opponents fearful of the counter.

八百万の代弁者博麗霊夢

普段は大人しい人間もいつも元気な妖怪も、皆一様に興奮しているように見える。彼らが血気盛んな理由はただ一つ。これから巫女とそのライバルによる決闘が行われるというのだ。この闘いに勝って人気を不動の物とせよ！

特技　万有霊力の法則

霊力ゲージが他のキャラより長くなっており、霊力最大値がアップします。射撃攻撃や必殺技をより多く使用でき、攻撃をガードして多少霊力を減らされても余裕が出ます。

ラストワード　夢想天生

構えを取って相手の打撃を受け止めて隙を作り、大量のお札で包囲して圧殺する霊夢の最終奥義です。０距離であれば問答無用にガード不能で発動するため、カウンターを恐れて萎縮する相手を突き崩すことも容易です。

Trivia

The characters for Reimu's last name "博麗" (Romanized: Hakurei) literally mean something like "esteemed companion", the first word "博" (Haku) means "wide" or "exposition" while "麗" (Rei) means "lovely", "graceful", and "beautiful". Her first name "霊夢" (Romanized: Reimu) means "revelatory dream" or "a vision", the first word "霊" read as "Rei" means "spirit" or "soul" while "夢" (Romanized: Yume) is read "Mu" and means "dream".

The surname Hakurei is also another name for sake, as the maker of the Touhou series, ZUN, is quite the connoisseur of "spirits", so much so that fans often speculate over whether ZUN might be or has been an alcoholic.

In Story of Eastern Wonderland, the prologue notes that Reimu says a phrase like Eriko Asagaoka. Eriko Asagaoka is a character from Izumi Takemoto’s manga Apple Paradise, a work that also served as the source for several other references used by the author. The phrase in question is delivered using a rough, masculine tone. Attempting to find the series online is next to nonexistent as very few sources actually have mention of it.

Reimu has appeared as a playable character in every integer-numbered game in the Touhou series.

Reimu was the second extra boss in the Seihou game Shuusou Gyoku.

Reimu makes an official appearance as "Flying Maiden" in Graffiti Kingdom, as ZUN was involved in the production of it.

Reimu appeared on the cover of all the PC-98 Touhou games, from the first game in the series to the fifth.

Reimu was never seen flying with her own power until Embodiment of Scarlet Devil. In the previous games, if Reimu needed to go somewhere far, she would ride on her turtle familiar, Genjii.

Although her many profiles suggest that the "Hakurei Clan" and the shrine Reimu lives at have been in Gensokyo for long enough to be considered ancient, there has never been any mention of Reimu's family members, ancestors, etc. It is originally stated that she lives alone at the shrine, but other rarely seen characters (Mima and Shingyoku) are known to stay there or near there as well.

There are some that believe two or more Reimu(s) may exist. The circumstantial evidence suggests 靈夢 (from the PC-98 games) and 霊夢 (from the Windows games) may be different people. However, this is extraordinarily unlikely, as both Yuuka and Alice recall Reimu, and ZUN uses the new kanji to refer to the old Reimu now. Also, her bio in Embodiment of Scarlet Devil's "おまけ.txt" file says, "Chronologically this title is not too far from the previous title, thus her age stays the same as before". Since the previous title in question would be Mystic Square, the last game in which PC-98 Reimu appeared in, and Embodiment of Scarlet Devil is the first game in which Windows Reimu appears, the bio appears to further debunk this theory.
- Some people state that the PC-98 Reimu may have been the current Reimu's ancestor, and that Yuuka and Alice seem to compare her instead of recalling. In the Touhou Kinema-Kan animations, a different-looking Reimu engages in battle with Yukari after setting up the border, thus summing it up along with the fact that Reimu's family may have also known Yukari for a long time. Though there is no proof of this claim, and one would need to suggest that the Marisa that appears in PC-98 is also the ancestor of the current Marisa along with Embodiment of the Scarlet Devil being noted to not be too far off from the last title chronologically.

Reimu's Yin-Yang Orb exhibits some strange powers, aside from helping her attack her enemies. The greatest powers of the Hakurei Yin-Yang Orb are:
1. Even if you eat sweets, you won't get fat
2. One of your favorite aromas can be given off
3. The yin-yang orb can be disguised as a cat

In Imperishable Night Reimu is the only one whose partner doesn't mention the danger of the full moon.

When playing Yukari's story mode in Scarlet Weather Rhapsody, Reimu breaks down in tears in the ending after Yukari defeats Tenshi and reduces the Hakurei Shrine to rubble for the second time, with Sakuya and Youmu looking on helplessly (although Suika offers to help rebuild it). This marks the first and only time where she is seen crying in a storyline scenario.

Reimu's Last Word 「夢想天生」 "Fantasy Heaven" (Pronounced: Musou Tensei) is a homonym of 「無想転生」 "Unconscious Transmigration of Souls" (Also pronounced: Musou Tensei), Kenshiro's ultimate technique in Hokuto no Ken. In 12.3, if you activate Fantasy Heaven successfully in a 3rd round, a remix of Mystical Oriental Love Consultation in the style of the Fatal KO theme from the Hokuto no Ken fighting game will play. Fitting, because activation of the said Spell Card means the opponent is certainly already dead! Because of this it is now known as the Hakurei Hyakuretsu Ken to some fans; also, Kenshiro's catch phrase ("you are already dead") was also adopted to Reimu ("you have already donated").

In Touhou Hisoutensoku, one of her alternative palettes looks similar to VIVIT, the heroine of Seihou. Also, one of her palettes seems to be another maid homage, Ruukoto, or possibly Sanae's colors. The palette also seems to resemble Mima from Highly Responsive to Prayers. Her white/light gray palette seems to resemble Toki from Hokuto no Ken, and possibly similar to the White Reimu from Concealed the Conclusion. And finally, her white/light blue palette looks like a tribute to Nanoha, as they both tend to "befriend" their opponents with superior firepower.

In Lotus Land Story, when you clear Easy Mode with Reimu and just before the Name Registry screen shows up, you get a Congratulation screen with a drawing of her wearing an outfit that very closely resembles her outfit from Embodiment of Scarlet Devil (save for non-detached sleeves).

In Immaterial and Missing Power, Reimu appears with blue eyes, but in the other Windows games, she is seen with brown eyes. Also, the Image Profiles show her with black hair, but in the shooting games, she has brown hair (This includes SWR and Hisoutensoku images).

Interestingly, her Divine Arts "Wind God Kick" Spell Card resembles Chris' Twister Drive Desperation Move in The King of Fighters.

Reimu seems to be scared before and after the boss battle with the Five Magic Stones in Story of Eastern Wonderland, making this the only ever time that Reimu was scared and/or afraid of a boss before and after the battle.

Reimu, Marisa, Yuuka, and Alice are the only four characters to appear in PC-98 and Windows games.

Her appearance on the Highly Responsive to Prayers score screen bears a striking resemblance to Meira.

When one asked ZUN who he'd find himself trapped in a hotspring with, he noted that he'd like it to be Reimu and Marisa^[1165].
- He has also noted that Reimu is a character that holds a special place in his heart^[1166].

The Touhou Girls feel no real shame for flying with skirts as trousers need a professional dressmaker^[1167].

Reimu very likely has ADHD, as she showcases very bad memory, a symptom of ADHD. She also notes that she rarely sleeps, another symptom of ADHD. Reimu also shows difficulty with listening to people^[1168], pretty much ignoring most of what Youmu says^[1169] which is a big symptom of ADHD. This is shown further where she is noted to not have listened to anything Meira said^[1170], despite her threatening her several times^[1171].

Despite Reimu's memories, she's has shwoncase moments of remembering some characters, such as remembering Mima after dealing with her in Highly Responsive Prayers^[1172].

Reimu tends to ask blunt insensitive questions about obviously touchy subjects without realizing, implying that she may have some specturm of autism^[1173].

Misconceptions

Reimu is the 13th Hakurei Shrine Maiden

This misconception has been fully debunked by ZUN^[1174], essentially noting it were a lot of people that made additions to the original text causing confusion.

Characters Have Flown Through Outerspace

One example of this is believed to be in Touhou 02's Stage 3 Scarlet Dream ~ Scarlet Dream where it displays stars and a space-like effect in the background^[1175], however this is actually the World of Fantasies, the world that lies between Makai and the human world, with Genji confirming this is definetely not outerspace as Reimu can breathe just fine there^[1176].

All Characters are Children

This is an argument that spawns from how small the characters look in different works, though this is moreso due to the "moe" artstyle Touhou tries to capture, in many of the manga characters look far older.

Majority of characters in the series are outright shown to drink alcohol on a daily basis^[1177], where one needs to be at least 20 years old under Japanese law to drink, where Japanese law requires no underaged characters to be shown drinking. This is even acknowledged in the series itself with a note saying alcohol is only for those over 20 years old^[1178]. Thus if a character is ever seen drinking alcohol in the series, they are an adult.

The only direct non-adults in the series are Sumireko Usami, Chiyuri Kitashirakawa, and Hieda no Akyuu in her first appearance.

Youkai Control the world through both the mental and physical layer

This statement comes from a fan translation that says this in Curiosities of Lotus Asia^[1179].

While the statement seems clear cut, there is another translation used instead that makes more sense with the sentence.

It instead notes that most youkai concieve of the world through these two layers, which is why they believe the future is pre-determined and history repeats itself^[1180]. This falls in line with the earlier disucssion of Rinnosuke claiming that he believes the future to be predetermined and Reimu needing to explain to him why that's not the case^[586].

Character Introductions * Main Character ... Reimu Hakurei The shrine maiden of the Hakurei Shrine. She possesses an innate spiritual power but lacks the discipline to develop it. She wields the powerful Yin-Yang Orb, but without skill, often flailing it about wildly. Despite that, she is still a force to be reckoned with due to her natural power. Reimu has trained herself to attack with ofuda, her spirit power, and martial arts. These all proved useless against her enemies this time, though, so she's a bit worried. Currently, she is the only person at the shrine." ↑ Touhou 02: Story of Eastern Wonderland ↑ Touhou 07: Perfect Cherry Blossom Final Stage Perfect Cherry Blossom ↑ Touhou 02: Story of Eastern Wonderland ↑ Touhou Project - Phantasmagoria of Dim.Dream "Shrine Maiden Who Maintains Dreams and Traditions — Hakurei Reimu" ↑ Touhou Project - Lotus Land Story Manual "★ Shrine Maiden who Protects Dream and Tradition - Reimu Hakurei" ↑ Touhou Project - Mystic Square 怪綺談.txt Reimu Profile "Shrine Maiden Reimu Hakurei A shrine maiden of Hakurei Shrine, who possesses natural-born spiritual power but lacks training. She exterminates youkai by attacking them with amulets, firing her spiritual power in a Spiritual Attack and releasing the power of the Yin-Yang Orb. She's an optimist. She faces some strange incidents, but still she enjoys them. Because of her slightly emotional and simple character, she's often made fun of by Marisa." ↑ Touhou Project - Embodiment of Scarlet Devil Manual Character Snippets "○Eternal Shrine Maiden Reimu Hakurei Ability: Able to Fly, and to Manipulate Natural Spirits. ↑ Touhou Project - Perfect Cherry Blossom Manual Reimu Profile "Wonderful Shrine Maiden of Paradise, Reimu Hakurei Hakurei Shrine's shrine maiden, and the protagonist. Her mind might appear normal, but in fact it's like spring in full bloom. The shrine is always haunted by youkai, and they're very friendly to Reimu as well. She's hardly performing the role of a shrine maiden at this point. She hates training, and because of this, lacks ability. So her skill is quite so-so. She hates to do her very best at anything that falls upon her. That's because she doesn't believe that effort will be rewarded. Because of that, the Hakurei Shrine's paper fortune doesn't have "Least luck" (末吉) [Typically, a shrine's paper fortune has Best luck (大吉), Medium luck (中吉), Little luck (小吉), Least luck (末吉), Misfortune (凶) and Worst misfortune (大凶). "末吉" is usually interpreted as "You'll get exactly as your effort"] Charms and the yin-yang orb are her weapons. Additionally, she has the ability to fly in the air. She has a smaller hit box, and her focused movement allows player to dodge very precisely. Spirit Sign's "Hakurei Amulet" is quite easy to use. It allows you to focus on dodging bullets. On the other hand, Dream Sign's "Extermination" wields destructive power of the highest class. Bosses are killed quickly, but the invincibility duration of her bombs is the shortest of all characters. It's also lacking in both effective radius and damage." ↑ ^10.0 ^10.1 ^10.2 ^10.3 ^10.4 ^10.5 ^10.6 Touhou Project - Immaterial and Missing Power Omake Character Settings "•The Lovely Shrine Maiden of Paradise 博麗霊夢（はくれいれいむ） Hakurei Reimu Species: Human Residence: Hakurei Shrine Abilities: Can fly to a certain degree The usual Hakurei Shrine maiden. Without ever carefully thinking anything over, living each day one at a time. Speaking of Shrine maiden-like behavior, the weather on the porch is quite fitting for drinking tea. The owner of an extremely simple way of thinking, when it's time to get mad, she gets mad, when it's time to laugh, she laughs. With such a straightforward and honest personality, regardless of whether she were a human or a youkai, she would be quite charming and attractive. Because of this, the shrine always has various visitors gathering. Whether it's martial arts or black magic, there is a lack of knowledge (actually a complete lack of knowledge), but with her Heaven-granted genius to cover her, she's insanely formidable. That's a position that most people can't conceive of. She can warp, she can home in, but her true self only plans to move straight ahead.

Their blood is boiling for one reason. From here on, the shrine maiden and her rivals will be battling it out. Emerge victorious in this battle, and acquire unwavering popularity! Special skill: Law of Universal Spirit Power Reimu's spirit power gauge is longer than the other characters', so her maximum spirit power is increased. She can use more ranged attacks and special attacks, and even if she loses some spirit power while guarding attacks, she'll still have more in supply. Last Word: Innate Dream Reimu adopts a stance, and by taking an enemy melee attack, she creates an opening, and then surrounds the enemy with massive amounts of ofuda and annihilates them in her most powerful attack. If it's at point-blank range, guarding against it is impossible, so it's also easy to wear down and flatten opponents fearful of the counter." ↑ Touhou 13.5: Hopeless Masquerade Reimu Story Stage 3 Newspaper ↑ Touhou 14: Double Dealing Character ↑ Touhou Project - Urban Legend in Limbo Reimu Hakurei Profile "Arcane!

Even during sudden cloudbursts, almost no rain would fall on the shrine. But that's not all - rain continues unabated over the forest, and at the mansion that's usually hidden behind thick mists, snow falls out of season... It was an amazing incident of abnormal weather. Nobody had any idea what was behind the strange weather. But, it was obvious with a glance at the big picture ... The one plagued by incessant sun, the one under a deluge of constant rain, the one enveloped in deep mist ... Yes, their strange weather only continued around them, personally. But the real crisis would probably start once the strange weather patterns collided. That glimpse of the weather crisis' true nature signaled the start of the incident's resolution in a manner that resounded across the land. -- A great earthquake strong enough to reduce the shrine to ruins.

The story of Reimu was not a difficult one, but it contained a shocking truth./Reimu's tale wasn't a difficult one, but there was a shocking truth contained therein.

First, there are the physical laws of living things, tools, etc 則 (Not yet) is a layer of moving physics. This layer is where objects fall towards the ground and river water flows./First is the physical layer that moves in accuracy with the laws of physics, including all living things, objects, etc. It is on this layer that an object falls towards the ground, and that the water of the river flows. The second is the movement of the mind and the layers of psychology such as magic and sorcery. Meeting assholes and getting offended, or having a party and getting rid of your rut is this demographic. Most monsters see the world solely through this layer of physics and psychology, so history repeats itself and the future is planned 戯れ (ざ) 言 (Goto) It is said that he says./The second layer is one that moves with the spirit, which includes things such as magic and sorcery, the mental layer. One's mood turning sour when meeting an unhappy person, and releasing all your stress and cares during a party lie here. Since most youkai conceive of the world just through these physical and mental layers, they Ridiculously say that history repeats itself and the future is predetermined. However, according to Reimu, the third layer of the world forms the loop of the world 拒 (Koba) Moo-y. The third layer is the layer of memory where all things remember events. The layers of memory increase but do not decrease, so we cannot be in exactly the same state as in the past. If it becomes the same as in the past, then the memory of it becoming the same is contradictory because it leaves you with nowhere to go. The layers of memory are only increasing./But according to Reimu, there is a third layer that rejects loops. The third layer is the layer of memory, which is the recollection of events that lies within all things. Since it's only possible to add to the memory layer, it's possible to completely recreate the past. If something were to happen that already occurred in the past, then there would be a contradiction because that would simply that memory was lost, which is impossible.

I'm jealous. If I had an area enclosed in that barrier, my magic's range would also widen. I indirectly asked Reimu about it, but it was pointless. Apparently, a barrier is a boundary line between things, and having two barriers on top of each other is equivalent to a world with no boundaries. If you can find the gaps in space that are hiding just about everywhere, you'll be able to set up a duplex barrier. In other words, she's bad at explaining things." ↑ ^212.0 ^212.1 ^212.2 ^212.3 Touhou Project - The Grimoire of Marisa Reimu Hakurei's Spell Cards Divine Spirit "Dream Seal -Blink-""• User: Reimu Hakurei • Notes: Long distance marathon • Reference Level: Only Reimu can do it, so it's no good as a reference Reimu herself only moves in a straight line, but somehow she completely surrounds you. Just as you think she passed behind you, she pops out from in front. The tengu and Sakuya do something similar, but for the tengu, it's just speed, and for Sakuya, it's just teleportation. Reimu's technique isn't something cheap like that. You probably don't get what I'm talking about, but I don't really get it myself. Reimu says that "you can't normally see the boundary that this barrier encloses, so it looks like there's countless copies of the enemy." Is it like a small world that loops around on itself? Or maybe it's something like two mirrors facing each other? Reimu has lots of Spell Cards like this.

A human that lives on the boundary. She has the ability to fly in the air. She's the shrine maiden of the Hakurei Shrine, which is located at the edge of Gensokyo and (possibly) has ancient and honourable origins. She's emotional and noisy, and has a presence wherever she is, but she merges into her surroundings quite easily. Her ability is being able to fly, that is, being weightless. The gravity of Earth, any level of stress, and threats of power all mean nothing to her. Both her mind and body float in the sky of fantasy, a mysterious shrine maiden. However powerful the opponent is, that means nothing in her presence. As she evens out whatever status one has, she tends to attract anyone regardless of species, human or youkai. Her weapons are amulets and a Yin-Yang orb. She is also preferred by mosquitoes. Notes She teams with Yukari this time. Focused speed only applies when she's used as a solo character. She lacks a bit in damage, but is quite easy to use and doesn't need much memorization. She's quite strong, especially against smaller enemies. In a word, dastardly." ↑ Chara☆Mel Mountain of Faith interview with ZUN "A Critical Restart For your 10th game, Mountain of Faith, you spoke of throwing out several parts from previous works and starting from scratch.

It would be bad if you used that. You don't know what's going to happen. If you used it, what would the results be? The story that follows in the next work after Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom starts from the point after doing a no-miss clear without using that Elixir. That's a really high level of difficulty, though (laugh). Doing a no-miss clear on Legacy Mode is what's canon (laugh). Because the "Ultramarine Orb Elixir" doesn't appear in the story when you do a no-miss clear. It didn't matter whether you used it or not. And, the endings where you do get hit have a better explanation of the Elixir. The reason for that is mostly meta, because when you start games like I Wanna Be The Guy, the other kind of game becomes harder to play and you can't clear them. Your body can't go back to those. Although, you might ask why it's necessary to go back to those in the first place. But it's not like you have to clear the game on Legacy Mode or anything." ↑ ^400.0 ^400.1 Touhou Project - Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom Prologue "When urban legends were manifesting in Gensokyo, a rumour started to spread that "Apollo never went to the Moon". At the same time, a metallic spider appeared around the mountain. The spider appeared to be slowly wandering around. Reimu: "So, what's this weird machine you mentioned?" Sanae: "It happened when the morning mist was still covering the mountain." It had a form with no imperfections, unbecoming of any other beast or monster. Mist faded away and the trees withered in the places where the spider passed by. Reimu: "So, a machine that looked like a spider?" Sanae: "I only caught a glimpse of it, but it definitely wasn't just some youkai that I mistook." Reimu: "Maybe it's one of the kappa's tools..." Once the machine passed by, there were no signs of life. Tengu flew in the sky overhead, but for some reason, they paid no attention to the spider As the foothills came into the spider's view, it slowly clambered down the cliffside. Sanae: "This is definitely interesting. I can't imagine that its appearance is just a coincidence." Sanae began to grow restless. Reimu: "What is it? It's kind of irritating." Sanae: "That thing looked just like Curiosity." —Eientei. Kaguya: "Seems the time has come for them to arrive." Eirin: "What shall we do?" Kaguya: "That's obvious, isn't it? I already prepared myself." A natural and satisfying answer. Eirin: "If they're making a move, no human will possibly be able to compete with them. However, if we were to make any move, we'd fall right into the enemy's hands. What's more, the youkai of Earth likely can't even interfere to begin with." Kaguya: "So what do we do?" Eirin: "I made some medicine for just the occasion. Get Reisen to deliver this to the shrine maiden and her friends." —Marisa's house, in the Forest of Magic The seven Occult Balls that had suddenly appeared. Marisa had been investigating just what one of the balls had been; The ball of the Lunar Capital, to be precise. Marisa: "Looks like this thing was somehow the cause of that while urban legend uproar, but..." As she sat bewildered, the moon rabbit Reisen appeared there. —The metallic spider's march of purification cannot be stopped. The trees wither before one's eyes. Not one blade of grass was left in the spider's tracks. When Gensokyo is completely purified, it will be transformed into a perfect world.

On that day, Reimu was just a little less bored than usual. Reimu: "Geez, what is all this? If we're not getting any light, then the weather is not going to clear up at all." At the rate it was moving, the mist would reach past the shrine and descend to where humans lived. Gensokyo interfering with its peoples' lives would most likely cause Gensokyo to be eliminated by the hands of humans, too. Reimu: "Well, finding the cause of all this is a shrine maiden's job (isn't it?). For some reason, that lake back there is pretty suspicious, so let's go there!"

For some reason or another, （you can't make fun of the shrine maiden's reasons) Reimu suspected that the lake within the mountains behind the shrine was strange, and headed there quickly.

Reimu: "The cherry blossoms should have bloomed by now. Why is there so much snow this year?" She figured she could find out why without asking about it. More talking would have made her colder anyway, so instead, she headed out to go straight to the source of the problem. Reimu: "(Hmm, it seems to be coming from this direction, I guess?)"

And so, every phenomenon that could be observed would therefore belong to the human race... supposedly. Naturally occurring phenomena were explained differently throughout various places. Humans, being fond of unified theories, would thus come to believe that all but one, or perhaps even all forms of reasoning were false.However, the youkai think like this: all observations, all the phenomena that occur in the world, and all forms of reasoning behind them are true. This is precisely because youkai themselves were born from natural phenomena and the thoughts people have about them." ↑ Curiosities of Lotus Asia Chapter 17 Page 116-123 Price of Paper in Luoyang "Truth is built upon information just like a tower that is built upon sand. Extra editions that were consistently being released for whatever reason fluttered around in Gensokyo's wind, and urgent news articles permeated everyone's conversations. The articles ranged from old news to recent news, and from facts that everyone knew to ones of questionable truth. Most of the truths we know are built upon information. When an event takes place, we usually don't have the chance to witness it with our own eyes. With luck, we can at most conjecture about it through the information that the event creates. And what we call truth is built upon this uncertain base of information. Most truths are not only built on uncertain bases, they are also fleeting and fragile. Truth is, in fact, easily changed by information. If one is to create information, then one must keep in mind that this information will change reality. There's no such thing as information that concepts only but the truth. Truth itself is the ultimate illusion, an illusion that doesn't exist even in Gensokyo. And there were a lot of newspapers being scattered around that didn't seem to understand that. That's because there was a tengu news tournament going on until recently. This tournament is not a new event, but this year there was an unpreceded climax, and at the same time, the tengu newspapers seemed to permeate every corner of academia in Gensokyo. But the question remains of why this news competition that has happened every year has suddenly increased in activity. I can think of two reasons for this. One is that the recent incident's aftermath provides a plethora of article material. And the other one – that I believe has a more direct relation – is that the supply of paper has seen a sudden increase, and its price has dropped according. If the availability of paper increases, it's a matter of course that the number of newspapers will increase too. And similarly, the fact that paper has become more easily available is something I'm very grateful for." ↑ Touhou Project - Phantasmagoria of Flower View キャラ設定.txt Reimu Hakurei Profile "Wonderful Shrine Maiden of Paradise Reimu Hakurei Race: Human Ability: Flying in the air The all-too-familiar shrine maiden of the Hakurei Shrine located on the border of Gensokyo.

They will likely gather in crowded places, just like humans did when they were alive./Phantoms will appear in public places, but they don't show up at my store often. To begin with, phantoms tend to gather easily wherever there is a lot of commotion. This is because of a phantom's transient nature, where they may vanish at any moment, so they gather at a lively place where it is easier for them to really feel their own existence. It is likely just as when they were human, preferring to be in crowds to people. "They say the future is planned, but that doesn't make sense. Some people seem to make their daily lives based solely on luck," Marisa said after having a spiritual dream./"There's no way the future is pre-defined. Some people's lives are supported just by luck, y'know." Marisa said, looking at Reimu. "Well, it's just luck 勘 (Kan) But even a hunch is a hunch that has some basis."/"Well, rather than 'just by luck' it's 'intuition', and that intuition is an intuition with a proper foundation."

Gambling at banquets is like the world of the yakuza./Chinchirorin? Ah, the simple game played with dice. Feasts and gambling, it's like the world of crime. "Marisa, I think the reason Reimu is able to ensure the dice are cast is because he is instantly calculating the planned future."/"Marisa, I believe the reason why Reimu can guess the outcome of dice rolls must be because she can calculate in an instant the predetermined future." I shared my thoughts on the mechanism by which the eye of the dice is determined. Reimu must probably be able to calculate the result intuitively by looking at Saiko's initial state. That's the kind of luck that exists in the world./I told them my idea, about the mechanism by which the outcome of dice was set. Perhaps after seeing the initial conditions Reimu can calculate the result of the dice by her intuition. Within this world good luck is that sort of thing. "Rinnosuke, that's completely different. You can't do that kind of calculation just by looking at the dice. Calculating people only think about probability. And even if you do the math, it won't turn out the way it does."/"That's not it at all, Mr. Rinnosuke. No matter how you slice it you couldn't do that kind of calculation just by looking at the dice. Calculating people only think with probabilities. Besides, even if they did calculate that the result won't go exactly as they thought." "Why do you think that? It's true that there's no way to calculate it, but if you could calculate it, you could read the future."/"Why do you think so? While I suppose you couldn't do that, wouldn't it still let you tell the future if you could?" Reimu looked shocked./Reimu looked shocked. "I seem to understand luck a few levels better, so I'll teach you today. The mechanism of probability. Also, the future is not planned..."/"Since it seems I have a deeper understanding of fortune, today I'll be doing the lecturing on the mechanism of probability. And while I'm at it I'll also show that the future is not predetermined…" ↑ ^587.0 ^587.1 Curiosities of Lotus Asia Chapter 27 Mechanism of Fortune "The layers of physics act on the laws of physics, the layers of psychology act on the interpretation of results, and the layers of memory act on the manipulation of probability, interacting to create the future. Since memories cannot be the same as a single point in the past, there are no plans for the future./The physical layer follows the laws of physics, the mental layer interprets the outcomes and the memory layer alters probability, mutually creating the future. Since it's impossible for memories to reach the same state as a point in the past, the future is not predetermined. For example, suppose you roll the dice once and get a 1. Even if you drop the dice again under the exact same conditions, the fact that one came out 賽 (﹅) 子 (﹅) が (﹅) 覚 (﹅) え (﹅) て (﹅) い (﹅) る (﹅) The above are not necessarily the same probability./So take a die rolling a one as an example. If you were to throw it again with the same initial conditions as before, since the die members the previous outcome it won't necessarily be the same probability. Just as I was about to hear and understand, I thought, "So how can you say you can read the dice?" Marisa asked./I followed her explanation up to that point, but then Marisa asked "So how are ya able to predict how the dice will fall?" I was distracted by Reimu's idea of a new world, but Marisa remained calm. If you can read the dice, not only will you be able to stand it and not lose, but you may also be able to achieve the same level of luck as Reimu./While I was entranced by Reimu's new illustration of the world, Marisa was unfazed. I didn't think she wanted to know just to beat Reimu at Chinchirorin, but to use that idea to become as lucky as Reimu. "I'm not really reading the next die. 私 (﹅) が (﹅) 賽 (﹅) の (﹅) 目 (﹅) を (﹅) 予 (﹅) 想 (﹅) し (﹅) た (﹅) That's what Saiko remembers."/"I'm not "predicting" the fall of the dice at all.

Apparently, 'the results side with Reimu'. "Well, then such knowledge is of no use to anyone except those with good fortune," Marisa was embarrassed./"What? Howzzat gonna help anyone but those who are already lucky?" Marisa sunk. I thought there was something false and shady about luck in the world. A big factor in this is that I thought the future was planned. Good luck (Engi) Even things were perceived as just far-fetched lumps./I doubted the existence of things such as fortune in this world, thinking it seemed like a lie. This was too likely of me thinking that the future was predetermined. I saw good luck charms as nothing more than lumps of sophistry. However, hearing Reimu's words reaffirmed the existence of luck in this world. There are certainly lucky and bad people. 験 (Gen) を担 (and) Some people succeed easily. To the jinx 囚 (Tora) I have people who fail. It may certainly be rough to think of all of these as just initial conditions./ Whatever, upon listening to Reimu's words, I have reaffirmed the existence of fortune. The blessed man and the cursed man both exist, certainly. There is a man that succeeds in shouldering his trials. There is a man that is a failure, captive by jinxes, as well. It might certainly be reckless to think of each one as mere because of initial conditions. If the determination of probability is due to the power of memory, it may not be surprising that lucky charms have the power to manipulate probability. The origin is complex and strange 程 (Moderate) , memory is Taki (Taki) This also means that the status of lucky charms increases./If we assume that probability is determined by the power of memory, it may be natural that probability can be manipulated by the power of good luck charms. The more complicated and unusual the origins are, the more memories a charm will have, therefore raising its effectiveness. Reimu added that 『all matter and psychology in this world are created by probability, and it is the luck of memory that determines this』./Reimu added to this, "In this world, both objects and souls are made up of probability, and are determined by the fortune which memories hold." I once heard that word and remembered it. 『こ (﹅) の (﹅) 世 (﹅) の (﹅) 物 (﹅) 質 (﹅) は (﹅) 全 (﹅) て (﹅) 確 (﹅) 率 (﹅) で (﹅) 存 (﹅) 在 (﹅) し (﹅) て (﹅) い (﹅) る (﹅) For it is already common sense』 I have seen science books from the outside world that say things like this. I remember looking at the book and not being able to figure out 『who would confirm the probability』 and not really understanding it./Hearing those words I remembered something. "It is already common knowledge that everything in the world exists by probabilities." Something along those lines was written in a science textbook from the outside world. I recall having only a huge compromise of its meaning, and I didn't understand, "Who determines the outcome of those probabilities?" However, Reimu was thinking of something similar, and he also realized that he had the power to determine probability in his memory. It was amazing./But Reimu had thought the same kind of thing, and even realized that it is memories which hold the right to determine those probabilities. It was surprising. "Memory determines probability... in other words What goes around comes around (Ingaohou) You could also say, it's amazing. That may indeed be true. But how did you acquire that knowledge?"/"Memory determinations probability... in other words, you could say it's karma. That's pretty amazing. It may very well be true.

If we use a conclusion taken from the latter half of the game, we can conclude that Reimu did not turn back in EoSD. Our proof is that Stage 6 takes place during the night. When Reimu noticed the incident and set out in Stage 1, it was already night. It can be thought that on her way, she did not enter any spiritual or temporal rooms, where the flow of time gets out of control, and made her way to Stage 6 before daybreak.

Also, by catching bullets within a hit combo, those bullets can be sent back to the opponent's field. Fireball Attack Can be sent to your opponent when you get a bigger combo or have erased a lot of bullets. Blue fireballs are normal ones, while red ones have been sent back at least once. Extra Attack Can be sent to your opponent when you get a very big combo, send back a fireball, etc. This attack is specific to your character and cannot be countered. Gauge Attack Attacks the opponent's field with bullets in a character-specific pattern. This attack is not triggered by merely defeating normal enemies. (Explained in the next section.) Boss Attack Activates when the hit combo bonus at the upper left exceeds 51,200 points, sending a boss to attack your opponent. Boss Reversal When a boss is in your field, if the combo bonus points exceed a certain value, the boss will be sent back to your opponent's field.

Basically, she's a shrine maiden. The shrine maiden of Hakurei Shrine, which is located on the boundary of Gensokyo. The Hakurei Shrine exists in both Gensokyo and the world of humans at the same time. The boundary is the home territory of the Hakurei Shrine. From both sides, it's located at a very remote place from human villages, and is also kind of small, and has no known history or benefits. So it's no wonder that it rarely gets any visitors. Inside the shrine, almost all foreign boundaries has been nullified. That alone should say that the Hakurei Boundary, the boundary between Gensokyo and the world of humans, is amazingly powerful. Only those of the Hakurei have rules to follow in Gensokyo. Therefore, Reimu always wears clothes that's apparently some kind of uniform (she's supposed to have many other rules too, though...). Her daily routine consists of wearing red-white, staring at Gensokyo's sky from the edge of Gensokyo, and drinking tea.

Gauge Attack System The gauge at the bottom of the screen is called the Spell Gauge. The blue part of the gauge shows the current maximum gauge amount. If you hold down the shot button, you can charge the gauge up to this maximum amount. When you release the button, you can attack according to the amount the gauge is charged. Level 1 — When ¼ of the entire gauge is charged and released. (Charge Shot) You can shoot a modestly powerful Charge Shot. Level 2 — When ½ of the entire gauge is charged and released. (Gauge Attack 1) Use this as often as you want. This uses up ¼ of the gauge and sends many eraseable white bullets to your opponent's field. These drop in various patterns that depend on the character, but be aware that white bullets are easy to counterattack. Level 3 — When ¾ of the entire gauge is charged and released. (Gauge Attack 2) This uses up ½ of the gauge and sends many non-eraseable bullets to your opponent's field. These drop in various patterns that depend on the character. Level 2 and 3 Gauge Attacks have an attack intensity level. This level goes up with each Gauge Attack, finally stopping at level 16. Naturally, higher levels are stronger, so please try to use it often. The number at your screen's bottom left is the current level. (For either level 2 or level 3 Gauge Attacks, each use will increase it by 1. If you do a Boss Panic, the level will increase by 3.) Level 4 — When the gauge is charged to the maximum and released. (Boss Attack) This uses up ¾ of the gauge and activates a Boss Attack. If your side already has a boss on it, this becomes a Boss Reversal. If a boss is already in the opponent's field, this will activate a level 3 Gauge Attack (using up ½ the gauge). The boss also has a level. This level also ranges from 1 to 16, and each time you send a boss, the level goes up. However, the boss level is shared by both players, so raising the level also means that a higher-level boss will be sent back to you. You should send this boss back by reversal as soon as you can.

The shrine maiden there was as bored as ever. Marisa "Yeah~. Isn't there anything happening? Usually after a large-scale incident, there'd be aftershock-type events going on." Reimu "It'd be better if it wasn't an incident." Marisa seemed pretty restless as well. Sakuya "That's why this kind of setup is strange. Nothing seems to be happening." Marisa "Maybe it's scared cuz we're all ready for it to happen?" The combination of a maid in a shrine was unexpectedly fitting. Youmu "No, something will happen. Yuyuko-sama said so." Reimu "......" Not a very credible claim. ka-thonk It wasn't the sound of a bamboo tube, but still a sound reverberating through their heads. That was how bored they were. ―――― Kaguya "If you're that bored, since tonight's a full moon, go undertake a trial of guts." Reimu "Hey! When did you come into my shrine?" The person that emerged from within the shrine was Kaguya. An alien. An ordinary person could not fathom the actions and thoughts of an alien. Marisa "A trial of guts doesn't sound very scary." Kaguya "Don't worry, when the full moon is shining brightly tonight, come to the bamboo forest at midnight and see for yourself. You'll taste the true meaning of terror. It's wonderful." Sakuya "Hmm, you wouldn't happen to be planning anything, would you?" Kaguya "It's not a trick or anything, but... it's scary, really. Far more than your honourable mistress." Youmu "A trial of guts... that's a bit..." Reimu "How can a half-ghost be the one that's most scared about it?" ―――― Since everyone was bored, their appearance changed into one of interest. And Kaguya's actions clearly showed them that something strange was afoot. Reimu "What'll happen if something occurs while we're undergoing this trial of guts?" Marisa "If she came to instigate us to this trial of guts, that means it's already the incident's entrance." Sakuya "Whatever happens, as long as we take turns and the rest remain at the shrine, it'll be fine." Youmu "Ehhh~, you're all really doing it~, it's a trial of guts~" Everyone was motivated. Kaguya "Oh yes, that's right. Make sure you go on this trial of guts as a 2-person team like you did when you came to me. That way if anything happens to one of you, we'll find out quickly." Reimu "This is definitely suspicious." Marisa "Is this your revenge for that?" Kaguya "What are you talking about? It's just to ensure the safety of you all." Sakuya "That isn't something the instigator of the trial of guts should say." Youmu "I definitely won't go alone." ―――― In the end, being bored and spurred on by Kaguya, they decided to set out at midnight that night to undertake the trial of guts. For the time being, the four of them went to call on their partners. In the first place, Gensokyo is filled with such things like youkai and phantoms. What could this extremely scary thing be?

The path from the human village is relatively easy, but the forest's environment is extremely ill-suited to human life. With the spores of monster mushrooms dancing about in midair, even breathing here would be hazardous to the health of a normal human. However, another unique feature of the forest is that even typical youkai find the place discomforting and many refrain from entering. For that reason, if one could stand the noxious miasma that the monstrous mushrooms emit, then on the contrary, it would be both a safe and secretive place to seclude oneself. Almost no sunlight reaches the ground of the forest, making it dark and damp. Therefore, mushrooms grow endlessly there. There are mushrooms here that can be used for food for humans who can withstand them, but they don't look very appealing. Also, there are a relatively high number of mushrooms with hallucinogenic properties. The reason why it is called the Forest of Magic in the first place is because of the wide number of hallucinogenic mushrooms growing there. Simply being near them will make hallucinations appear as if one was entranced by magic. In addition, for the sake of increasing their magical powers with these hallucinogenic mushrooms, many magicians live in this forest. 13: Since Gensokyo is not that big, there is not much need to bother with place names.

A fairy you are likely to encounter at such times is this ice fairy. Among the fairies around the lake she has a leader-like presence, and is stronger than the other fairies. She belongs to the more belligerent variety of fairies, and so it is necessary to be careful. She is quite short and dressed in blue with wings of ice. Being able to freeze small objects instantly, she is a bit more dangerous than regular fairies. She emits cold air constantly, so her vicinity is always chilly. Since where she lives is totally unknown, there is no way of telling how she spends her everyday life. Not just Cirno's, but all fairies' homes blend into nature, preventing them from being seen by humans. ↑ Touhou Project - Perfect Memento in Strict Sense Page 10-11 Cirno Profile Countermeasures "If it suddenly gets cold, there is a possibility that the ice fairy is nearby. At such times you should be obedient and flee, or look for the shape of the fairy. Fairies usually do nothing and keep their distance when they understand that they are noticed. Since Cirno is easily noticed, I assume that as long as one is not very careless there is little risk of being injured. Still, if you are to pass through place where she seems to be around, what's the best way of doing it? She's weak against fire from torches and other objects too hot to touch. If you're holding a torch to start with she probably won't go near. Since she can freeze things she touches instantly, refrain from touching her even if she is asleep. There is a risk of frostbite. If by any chance Cirno should attack, just start calmly talking about anything, and ask her a riddle when she shows interest. When you do that, she will start to think of the answer, giving you an opportunity to escape. No matter how simple the question, she can certainly not answer it. ↑ Touhou 07: Perfect Cherry Blossom ↑ Touhou Project - Perfect Memento in Strict Sense Letty Whiterock Profile "There is a youkai that has only been seen during winter. A youkai that prefers cold places, Letty Whiterock is feared for ensnaring humans and freezing them, rendering them powerless to fight back. To keep it simple, she is a type of Yuki-onna. This youkai appears as a woman wearing light clothing that doesn't seem like it would protect her from the cold. She appears during unusually chilly days, though it is unknown whether the chilliness is due to her appearance instead. The extreme chill might make you lose any will to fight(1). If caught by her tricks, it isn't an exaggeration to say that the fight is over before it even began. It does not mean that she directly makes the wind blow and snow fall, but since she can enhance the winter that exists within nature, she can exhibit ridiculous powers which seem impossible for one youkai. Despite being controlled by nature, her power is extremely strong. After causing a thorough riot during winter, she suddenly disappears when spring comes. It seems she hides somewhere until the next winter." ↑ Touhou Project Perfect Memento in Strict Sense Letty White Profile Countermeasures "The thing called chill is very troublesome. It is not a physically thrown cold object (2), but something that lowers the temperature of the whole area. Even healthy people can become sick. Even active people become inactive. They lose their fighting spirit. There may be no way to completely avoid it. First and foremost, wear warm clothes. This is the most important thing. It is enough if your body can move while you flee. In particular, if the extremities of your body become cold, your circulation might worsen, so you should take care to eat well. If you are careless and happen to see her while wearing light clothes, it is hopelessly difficult to escape, because the chill extends for a wide range. If you are not resistant to the chill, it is unlikely you will survive for long. However, even though this youkai is fearsome, she only appears during winter. When spring comes and it becomes warmer, there is nothing to fear. If you find this youkai during summer, it might be your best chance to strike (3). ↑ Touhou 11: Subterranean Animism Stage 1 ↑ Touhou 11: Subterranean Animism ↑ Strange Creators of Outer World, Introduction of Previous Works, Subterranean Animism, Cross Review "Stage 1* Yamame & Kisume 0: First of all, I hate her cause her disease thing is a real pain.

The original phrase is quoted from 5−20 of "Corinthians 2", Bible's New Testament — "Be reconciled to God" (神と和解せよ). Japanese people, especially living in the eastern half, sometimes find it on the posters propagated by a volunteer Chiristian group "Bible Distribution League" (聖書配布協力会). The design and colors of them isn't user-friendly, which take great odd impact on their hearts as they can't know who made them. Then time has passed, some parts of coloring on posters fall. Due to the shape of fonts, the part "God" (神) is left as "cats" (ネコ) in many cases.

Consequently, the collective willpower of the youkai began to fall. It was into this situation that a powerful youkai from outside, a vampire, appeared, and quickly amassed a great number of subordinates. In the end, the vampire was defeated through the efforts of the most powerful youkai, and a settlement was reached through a contract that placed a number of prohibitions on the vampire's activities. Some of the more willful youkai found these terms distasteful and entered into discussions with the Hakurei shrine maiden. The shrine maiden, who was also tiring of an uneventful lifestyle, agreed to the youkai point of view that some battles were necessary. The result of this were the spell card rules, which allowed duelists to seemingly stake their lives in individual combat (4). It's said that the raucous Scarlet Mist incident caused by that vampire was the first time the spell card rules were put to use. Since then, various incidents have occurred with moderate frequency that have had no lasting effects. The game ends once a victor is decided, although the shrine maiden likes to have rematches until she wins." ↑ Gensou Narratograph Chapter 1 Pages 104 - 108 "GM: Ahh, I had a great time!

Player A: Yaaay. I'm glad you think so. GM: Aya was very cool in the Showdown Phase. In addition, they did a great job roleplaying and commenting on things in the scenes, and made me chuckle a lot of times. Player B: Hahaha. You're right, I did roll pretty well back there. GM: Also, speaking as the GM, excitable Sanae was a lot of fun to play! ZUN: You could tell from the start she was going to fail (laugh). The way she acted. GM: If that's what you thought, then it worked as intended (laugh). — So, moving on. Player A, if you would! Player A: Okaaay! Everyone, thank you so much! Everyone was really cute... I noticed I was grinning the whole time. (laugh) All: Thank you! Player A: I felt a lot of love for the source material in all of Aya's lines. Writing an extra, and the regular edition too, I really felt like "Man, being a reporter is a lot of work." Player B: That's great to hear. Player A: And Reimu was really awesome too. Really felt like this was "ZUN's Reimu". Saying what she wants, doing what she wants, being really rough on Cirno too, it was great to see. Compared to everyone else here, I don't know the source material nearly as well, so it might not have been a very Cirno-like Cirno, but I still had lots of fun messing around as her for a day. Thank you very much! GM: I think it was good you amped up her fairy-ness! — Well, next up, Player B. If you would. Player B: Riiight! Good work, everyone! Man... First off, Cirno was really cute. I thought her level of energy and clever use of her ability were really Cirno-like, actually. She was fun to watch. Player A: Hehehe. Alright! Player B: Also, the mental image of Sanae explaining the ski resort with a smug look on her face really stuck in my head. It was such a good smug face, I don't even know if it would come across in a photo. (laugh) ZUN: It was a good smug face. Sanae also has a habit of getting carried away, after all. (laugh) GM: I'm glad to hear you say that. (laugh) Player B: I feel like Aya really wants to write articles that make people chuckle, so the idea of being able to turn Sanae's smug photo against her was really funny. My main goal as Aya was to write some entertaining articles, so I'm glad I got a lot of chances for that. I think I managed to roleplay an Aya Shameimaru that matches what's in my head. ZUN: It was very Aya-like. (laugh) Player B: Thank you very much! — And, of course, I felt a really strong "canon Reimu" too, and was really moved. How direct she was with everyone, and her small hitbox, simply felt like her. ZUN: Yeah, exactly (laugh). That's what Reimu's like. Player B: Maaan, I'm still not over it. — Seriously, thank you! GM: Thank you very much. ...So, finally. Can I ask ZUN as well? ZUN: Of course. Man, it was fun (laugh). First off, Cirno. Watching "Charismatic" Cirno run around like that, I definitely thought, "Is that what Cirno's like?" ...but despite that, it was great, and I felt like I saw a new Cirno today. I felt like this game's own kind of Touhou-ness, own kind of playstyle and relationships between characters really got to shine. It was really good. Player A: Thank you very much! ZUN: Aya is a character who's easy to make a bit too righteous, but this one definitely wasn't. Her only looking for the bad sides of people is, if I had to say, more faithful to how I write her. Really Aya-like. It was great. Player B: Hehehe. That's just how Aya is, huh. Doesn't really think about anybody else, you could say. ZUN: Yeah, exactly. That's how she is (laugh). ...Also, the first thing that really surprised me was with that cat in the Human Village. I just threw "It was Chen, right?" out there as a bit of a joke, but then the GM picked that up and ran with it. I really thought "Wow! These are actually connected like that!?" It made me think that might be what's really good about these kinds of games. GM: I was a bit worried about that part, but I'm glad it worked out. ZUN: To be honest, I was kind of messing with you when I said that. (laugh) GM: Messing with me!? ZUN: (laugh) — Well, last, about the Reimu I played. I was kind of embarrassed in parts, and don't really know if you can call what I did roleplay. But in the final danmaku battle, watching the bullets fly past me even without doing anything, I really felt invincible for a moment, and like Reimu's character really ended up shining through somehow. I know the dice rolls are random and stuff, but it's interesting how you can see it like that. GM: Yeah, that's true. Of course, the numbers you get when rolling dice are just products of chance, but I think being able to sense meaning in them is one of the great things about tabletop RPGs. And since they're random, they end up going differently every time. (laugh) ZUN: True, true. I kinda wanna do this again sometime. GM: If you think so, that really makes me feel like it was worth making. ...But, well, until we get another chance, I think this is it for now. Good work today, everyone!

"Huh? I thought you were talking about a dream, Merry?" The girl listening to me talk about my dreams is Renko Usami: the other member of our little club of two, and the one who comes up with most of our activities. Renko can tell where she is and what time of day it is just by looking at the sky. Creepy. Also, Renko calls me Merry. People in this country seem to have trouble pronouncing my name, to the point where I wonder if anyone even remembers it anymore. "I am talking about my dreams. I told you that from the start, didn't I?" "...But if those were dreams, then how do you have those things here in reality?" "That's precisely why I wanted to consult you." It's becoming hard for me to tell what's a dream and what's reality. The dreams usually end when I'm being chased by a youkai. They're nightmares worthy of being called nightmares, but... If I keep bringing things along from my dreams without realizing it, then maybe even the conversation I'm having now is just a dream... "Alright, here's my first piece of advice for you, Merry. These aren't bamboo shoots anymore. By the time they get to this size they're too tough to eat." But if I could change them from nightmares to good dreams, I might prefer them to my present reality... "Natural bamboo shoots hide underground, to protect themselves while they're soft and tasty."" ↑ Changeability of Strange Dream #06 Retribution for the Eternal Night ~ Imperishable Night "I ran for dear life, even though I was in a dream. I didn't know why it was, but the laughter that I heard sounded like something that clearly wasn't human. My instincts were telling me "Run for it!" But the bamboo forest was sloped at a slight angle, which made me lose my sense of balance. I tried to run in a straight line, but what really happened, I wonder? Although it felt like I'd run quite a lot, there was nothing to see but the same scenery as before. Did this forest continue on for eternity, or was I running around in circles? ...But I suppose either would have the same result. To think in such a way that "from an objective point of view, there exists a definite truth" like Renko does really is old-fashioned. The truth exists within subjectivity. If I can only see the same sights over and over again... then that's the kind of place this is. And that's why I'm running. Because dreams are nothing like the antonym of reality. By today's common knowledge, the two are synonyms. Even in dreams, one must flee from things of unknown nature. That is the truth. My major is relativistic psychology. Renko's is super-unified physics. I wonder if her recent study of strings is going well?" ↑ Changeability of Strange Dream #07 Night Falls ~ Evening Star "But... it's strange. Even though there are an awful lot of old-fashioned people like you who consider dreams and reality to be direct opposites, I heard that people much, much longer ago didn't draw a distinction between dreams and reality. And now, we draw a distinction between dream and reality, but they are the same. The truth of reality and the truth of dreams, the me of reality and the me of dreams, they each exist. A butterfly of night or a human of the day... According to current common knowledge, both are me. I felt that I ran away a considerable distance, but I didn't feel fatigued at all. Was it because I moved as if I was flying in the sky? Did I become a butterfly, I wonder? But I could see the finish line for this kind of midnight marathon... ...I stopped running. Because a little further through the bamboo forest ahead of me, there was a scarlet red shining light. It had an ominous glow, as if it was not real. To compare it to something you'd understand... Its color might have been closest to that of the flame test of rubidium, perhaps? It was certainly nothing like a glowing bamboo stalk. Remaining cautious of what may have been behind me, I stealthily peeked in the direction of the light." ↑ Changeability of Strange Dream #09 Border Between Dreams and Reality ""And, this is the scrap of paper that I found on the ground after the big mouse and the girl left." "Hey, are you actually talking about a dream?" The origin of the scarlet light that confronted the big mouse was somehow a girl. That girl was shining with a scarlet light. As for the reason why she was shining scarlet, it is very simply that the girl's body was entirely engulfed in flames. No, that description is not entirely correct. It's more accurate to say that she was emitting flames from her body. The deep scarlet flames spread out diagonally upward, like a bird spreading its wings... Yes, that was how it was. She was ominous— incomparably more so than the big mouse with the human face. The big mouse was terrified and fled as soon as the girl raised her hands. "I keep telling youuu... Dreams and reality are the same thing. I've told you time and time again, haven't I? To me, talking to you now could be a dream, or it could be reality..." "Hey, listen, Merry, I'll hear you out about the dream world, so just calm down a bit. In the end, who was that girl? What happened afterwards?" "I don't know. After that, the big mouse ran away... and the girl left, too. I stayed hidden the whole time so the large mouse and the girl wouldn't see me. Why'd I stay hidden when she'd chased that mouse away for me, you ask? Well..." I'd gotten a look at that girl's eyes—scarlet beyond even the big mouse's...

It's been a long while, so speaking from the conclusion, probably not. The message behind the Gensokyo Record is as follows: The Gensokyo Record is fairly suspect. It's not like they let anyone hear it, and no one has any idea when or where someone's looking. That's a transcript among the people living in Gensokyo. It was not necessarily read at the same time as the story took place. In a sense, the content is common knowledge of Gensokyo recognized by the humans. However, there is a continuation of the Gensokyo Record that was abridged out of the manual, and a variety of events are recorded in it. It's not just stories about Reimu and company written there, though. It describes a variety of events that have occurred in Gensokyo. The problem is, no one knows whether the original of this transcript exists, or even if it does, no one knows where. All sorts of people have copied it and even added new anecdotes without permission. (You can see from how the additional material is written that it was added on by someone quite recently.) In short, the copiers' intentions have interfered. Naturally, since the transcript is in regard to the entire contents, not just for the guide portion, additions and deletions stemming from typos, omissions, or arbitrary interpretations have rapidly changed the content. There is simply no way one can say such a book is capable of conveying the truth. In short, being able to look at this and imagine (or expect, in this case) that it was embellished by the shrine maiden's hand is the same as thinking, "There is no way I can trust the contents of this record." I've kind of gotten away from the topic of the question, but for the above reasons, as you might expect, there is a high possibility that Reimu is not the 13th Hakurei shrine maiden." ↑ Touhou 02: Story of Eastern Wonderland Stage 03 ↑ Touhou 02: Story of Eastern Wonderland Stage 03 ↑ Touhou Sangetsusei (Three Fairies) ~ Oriental Sacred Place Chapters 1-2 ↑ Touhou Sangetsusei (Three Fairies) ~ Strange and Bright Nature Deity Chapter 6 ↑ Curiosities of Lotus Asia Chapter 27 Page 198-205 "She says that the world is made up of three layers: First is the physical layer that moves in accordance with the laws of physics, including all living things, objects, etcetera. It is on this layer that an object falls toward the ground, and that the water of the river flows. The second layer is one that moves with the spirit, which includes things such as magic and sorcery — the mental layer. One's mood turning sour when meeting an unpleasant person, and releasing all your stress and cares during a party lie here. Since most youkai can control the world through both the physical and mental layers, they say that history repeats itself and the future is predetermined as a prank. But according to Reimu, there is a third layer that rejects loops: this third layer is the memory layer, which is the recollection of events that lies within all things. Since it is only possible to add to the memory layer, it's impossible to completely recreate the past; if something were to happen that already occurred in the past, then there would be a contradiction because that would imply that that memory was lost, which is impossible. The memory layer always continues to build up." ↑ Curiosities of Lotus Asia Chapter 27 Page 198-205 "The second layer is one that moves with the spirit, which includes things such as magic and sorcery, the mental layer.

Character Introductions
* Main Character ... Reimu Hakurei
The shrine maiden of the Hakurei Shrine. She possesses an innate spiritual power but lacks the discipline to develop it. She wields the powerful Yin-Yang Orb, but without skill, often flailing it about wildly. Despite that, she is still a force to be reckoned with due to her natural power. Reimu has trained herself to attack with ofuda, her spirit power, and martial arts. These all proved useless against her enemies this time, though, so she's a bit worried. Currently, she is the only person at the shrine."

She's an optimist. She faces some strange incidents, but still she enjoys them.

[9] Touhou Project - Perfect Cherry Blossom Manual Reimu Profile "Wonderful Shrine Maiden of Paradise, Reimu Hakurei
Hakurei Shrine's shrine maiden, and the protagonist. Her mind might appear normal, but in fact it's like spring in full bloom.
The shrine is always haunted by youkai, and they're very friendly to Reimu as well.
She's hardly performing the role of a shrine maiden at this point.
She hates training, and because of this, lacks ability. So her skill is quite so-so.
She hates to do her very best at anything that falls upon her.
That's because she doesn't believe that effort will be rewarded.
Because of that, the Hakurei Shrine's paper fortune doesn't have "Least luck" (末吉)
[Typically, a shrine's paper fortune has Best luck (大吉), Medium luck (中吉), Little luck (小吉), Least luck (末吉), Misfortune (凶) and Worst misfortune (大凶). "末吉" is usually interpreted as "You'll get exactly as your effort"]
Charms and the yin-yang orb are her weapons. Additionally, she has the ability to fly in the air.
She has a smaller hit box, and her focused movement allows player to dodge very precisely.
Spirit Sign's "Hakurei Amulet" is quite easy to use. It allows you to focus on dodging bullets.
On the other hand, Dream Sign's "Extermination" wields destructive power of the highest class.
Bosses are killed quickly, but the invincibility duration of her bombs is the shortest of all characters. It's also lacking in both effective radius and damage."

Species: Human
Residence: Hakurei Shrine

The usual Hakurei Shrine maiden.
Without ever carefully thinking anything over, living each day one at a time. Speaking of Shrine maiden-like behavior, the weather on the porch is quite fitting for drinking tea.
The owner of an extremely simple way of thinking, when it's time to get mad, she gets mad, when it's time to laugh, she laughs.
With such a straightforward and honest personality, regardless of whether she were a human or a youkai, she would be quite charming and attractive.
Because of this, the shrine always has various visitors gathering.
Whether it's martial arts or black magic, there is a lack of knowledge (actually a complete lack of knowledge), but with her Heaven-granted genius to cover her, she's insanely formidable. That's a position that most people can't conceive of. She can warp, she can home in, but her true self only plans to move straight ahead. The crafty shrine maiden.

From here on, the shrine maiden and her rivals will be battling it out.
Emerge victorious in this battle, and acquire unwavering popularity!

Special skill: Law of Universal Spirit Power
Reimu's spirit power gauge is longer than the other characters', so her maximum spirit power is increased.
She can use more ranged attacks and special attacks, and even if she loses some spirit power while guarding attacks, she'll still have more in supply.

Last Word: Innate Dream
Reimu adopts a stance, and by taking an enemy melee attack, she creates an opening, and then surrounds the enemy with massive amounts of ofuda and annihilates them in her most powerful attack.
If it's at point-blank range, guarding against it is impossible, so it's also easy to wear down and flatten opponents fearful of the counter."

It was there, within the mountain distance away from the human village, in the far off country in the East—Gensokyo. It has been a while since it was separated from the outside world by the Barrier, which the youkai made.
Things that were forgotten from this world, things that were no longer needed, have been gathered around at the place. Due to such nature, Gensokyo should have become a paradise for the youkai.

○Eternal Shrine Maiden
Reimu Hakurei
Ability: Able to Fly, and to Manipulate Natural Spirits.
The protagonist.
Chronologically this title is not too far from the previous title, thus her age stays the same as before.
Unintentionally, she is a shrine maiden. Or rather, she is a shrine maiden only because the Touhou series has become the "Shrine Maiden Shooting Game" series. It feels like the cart has been placed before the horse to me.
This time, her outfit is not overly intricate like typical shrine maiden clothing, but has become quite simple and only remotely resembles that of a shrine maiden. Is she really a shrine maiden?
She's more like "You red & white girl!" in my opinion."

[40] Touhou Project - Scarlet Weather Rhapsody Prologue "Almost a year has passed since the shrine maiden went to the mountain.
The Hakurei Shrine's crisis was averted without incident, and a sweltering summer has visited the shrine as usual.
However, the shrine maiden has been afflicted with an unusual continuing drought.
Even during sudden cloudbursts, almost no rain would fall on the shrine.
But that's not all - rain continues unabated over the forest, and at the mansion that's usually hidden behind thick mists, snow falls out of season...
It was an amazing incident of abnormal weather.
Nobody had any idea what was behind the strange weather.
But, it was obvious with a glance at the big picture ...
The one plagued by incessant sun, the one under a deluge of constant rain, the one enveloped in deep mist ...
Yes, their strange weather only continued around them, personally.
But the real crisis would probably start once the strange weather patterns collided.
That glimpse of the weather crisis' true nature signaled the start of the incident's resolution in a manner that resounded across the land.
-- A great earthquake strong enough to reduce the shrine to ruins.
Nobody knew why she was the only one to feel its effects, but it was enough to send the shrine maiden out to find the cause of the incident."

she hates to lose, this leads to some bad points, but the cause of this is because she's straightforward.
No matter where she goes, she causes trouble, but in all honesty, there are many things that can cause trouble.
One reason for her seclusion within the forest is that people don't come so often. Because she doesn't want any miscreants intruding on her research, she has the attitude of "if I want to meet someone I'll go out myself".
Something resembling a personal cellphone can be seen hanging.
Somewhere else, a lot of trouble is being made.

A small shrine resting in a country far to the east, the "Hakurei Shrine". Many out-of-the-ordinary events transpire here, causing normal people to almost never draw close to the shrine. On the other hand, there is also a reason that "things that aren't human" never descend to terrorize the Human Village: because shrine maidens, females with the power to channel the gods, have lived at this shrine for many generations, guarding the gates to other realms such as Hell and Makai where those "things that aren't human" reside."

[51] ZUN'S Emails "I might officially announce an order of height if there's a demand (since I set up a height comparison chart in the production materials).
However, backing up a bit...generally speaking, they're about as tall as girls in their early teens ['10代前半' means 10 to 14 years old]. A suitable breakdown would be something like:
Tall: Sakuya, Meiling, Yukari
Fairly Tall: Reimu, Yuyuko, Alice, Letty, Ran
Fairly Short: Marisa, Youmu, Patchouli, Lunasa, Merlin
Short: Remilia, Lyrica, Chen, Cirno, Rumia, Flandre
Basically, if we consider the top level as the height of a human in her late teens or older ['10代後半以降' means 15 years old or above] and the bottom level as the height of a human in her early teens ['10代前半' ], that puts them in a fairly short class (though none of that level are human). If their sizes appear to be different on the game screen than given above, it's because of some mystic force like perspective, so pay it no mind. :-)"

スペルカードルールは、お互い技を見せ合い、その美しさで競う決闘ルールである。 The spell card rules are dueling rules that allow both parties to show off their skills in a beautiful competition.
大雑把に言うと、 The major points are:
*スペルカードとは、自分の得意技に名前を付けた物で、使う時は宣言してから使う必要がある。 *Spell cards are techniques specially-named by the individual, and they must be declared upon use.
*お互いカードの枚数は予め決闘前に提示しなければならない。 *The number of each party's spell cards must be determined in advance of a duel.
*手持ちのカードが全て破られると負けを認めなければいけない。 *The first party to have all of their spell cards beaten must admit defeat.
*勝者は決闘前に決めた報酬以外は受け取らない。相手が提示した報酬が気に入らなければ断れる。 *The victor is entitled only to what was agreed upon before the duel. If they're not interested in what their opponent has to offer, they can refuse a duel.
*勝者は敗者の再戦の希望を、積極的に受ける様にする。 *Winners should generally allow losers a rematch.
*不慮の事故は覚悟しておく。 *Always prepare for the unexpected.
といった内容のもので、これによりスポーツ感覚に近い決闘が出来る。 Following these rules allows for duels that feel almost like sport.
そのルールの導入により、比較的力の弱い人間も妖怪に勝負を挑む事が可能となった。 With the introduction of these rules, it became possible for even relatively weak humans to challenge youkai.

A mysterious orb with an unnatural amount of spiritual power. Perhaps a soul dwells within? It appears as though it could be alive. Normally you cannot defeat spirits or devilish powers without a weapon such as this."

Only the power of the Yin-Yang Orb can deal damage. (If you have 0 lives remaining your spirit attack can also do damage.)
Bosses have various types of attacks but you can repel white bullets with your exorcism or somersault or the start of an ofuda burst. Also, if you hit a bullet directly with an ofuda you can destroy it.
You cannot destroy lasers and missiles. When you're cornered simply accept that you will have to bomb. Otherwise it may be time to give up. Fire, exploding bullets and the like are also not destroyable."

Acting on her whims as always, she figured she'd go and enter one of the gates. After a while, she realized that only the Hakurei Shrine's greatest treasure, the Yin-Yang Orb, was effective against these non-human creatures.
Reimu "Well, whatever. Things will turn out just fine as long as I use the yin-yang orb skillfully!"

After saying this, Reimu brewed tea for the three of us and gladly served it.
It would be fun to hear why Reimu has such good intuition. I forgot to let the tea cool and brought it to my mouth./We looked forward to hearing the reason behind the quality of Reimu's intuition. I brought the tea to my lips, forgetting to cool it.
"...Huh. Reimu's initial conditions became exactly the same Saiko (Dice) So you're saying that the same eyes don't necessarily appear?" "... Ah. So what you're saying is that even if the initial conditions of the dice are the same, it's possible to get different results?"/"Of course it will. That alone doesn't determine the outcome." "Of course, I am. Those aren't the only things deciding the outcome."
The story of Reimu was not a difficult one, but it contained a shocking truth./Reimu's tale wasn't a difficult one, but there was a shocking truth contained therein.
Reimu 曰 (Iwa) He says that the world is made up of three layers./According to her, the world is made up of three layers.
First, there are the physical laws of living things, tools, etc 則 (Not yet) is a layer of moving physics. This layer is where objects fall towards the ground and river water flows./First is the physical layer that moves in accuracy with the laws of physics, including all living things, objects, etc. It is on this layer that an object falls towards the ground, and that the water of the river flows.
The second is the movement of the mind and the layers of psychology such as magic and sorcery. Meeting assholes and getting offended, or having a party and getting rid of your rut is this demographic. Most monsters see the world solely through this layer of physics and psychology, so history repeats itself and the future is planned 戯れ (ざ) 言 (Goto) It is said that he says./The second layer is one that moves with the spirit, which includes things such as magic and sorcery, the mental layer. One's mood turning sour when meeting an unhappy person, and releasing all your stress and cares during a party lie here. Since most youkai conceive of the world just through these physical and mental layers, they Ridiculously say that history repeats itself and the future is predetermined.
However, according to Reimu, the third layer of the world forms the loop of the world 拒 (Koba) Moo-y. The third layer is the layer of memory where all things remember events. The layers of memory increase but do not decrease, so we cannot be in exactly the same state as in the past. If it becomes the same as in the past, then the memory of it becoming the same is contradictory because it leaves you with nowhere to go. The layers of memory are only increasing./But according to Reimu, there is a third layer that rejects loops. The third layer is the layer of memory, which is the recollection of events that lies within all things. Since it's only possible to add to the memory layer, it's possible to completely recreate the past. If something were to happen that already occurred in the past, then there would be a contradiction because that would simply that memory was lost, which is impossible. The memory layer always continues to build up."

[Touhou_Project_-_Story_of_Eastern_Wonderland_Prologue_Reimu_Training-99] 99.0 ^99.1 ^99.2 ^99.3 ^99.4 Touhou Project - Story of Eastern Wonderland Prologue "Here among the mountains in a certain eastern land lies the relatively peaceful Hakurei Shrine. To strengthen her spiritual power, Reimu, the shrine's only maiden, had withdrawn into the mountains to train for a bit of training.
"Training? That's been going all right, but suddenly I want to sleep in my futon!" she said, and made up her mind to return to the shrine.
But when she got back there, she found the place infested with youkai and other crazed, inhuman freaks.
Reimu: What's all this!? I won't be able to get to sleep with this going on... Very well, I can show you the fruits of my training!
But Reimu hated training, and her real aim in going to the mountains was relaxing in their many hidden hot springs and savoring the delicious autumn foods. Between these pursuits, she hadn't done very much actual training.
Genjii: My lady, these youkai seem strangely controlled. Their leader must somewhere nearby. I can also somehow sense the power of a foreign culture... in any case, I suppose I shall be accompanying you.
Reimu: I was going to take you anyway. After all, I can't fly...
Then Reimu took Genjii and, as always, the secret treasure of Hakurei Shrine: the Yin-Yang Orb. To find the source of the problem, she faced the shrine to exterminate the youkai.
Though she would meet many strange people in many strange places..."

Reimu　Hakurei
A shrine maiden of Hakurei Shrine, who possesses natural-born spiritual power but lacks training. She exterminates youkai by attacking with amulets, firing her spiritual power called Spiritual Attack and releasing the power of the Yin-yang Orb.
She is such an optimist that she doesn't worry at all even in this emergency, and believes she can solve all incidents with her power.
This time, she (somehow) fights riding the turtle."

A: Ahh, that it is a little misunderstanding.
The motive of the turmoil, so to speak, is the motive of the youkai side who caused the turmoil.
Since it can't be helped, even when Reimu and the gang are defeated, they challenge again however many times they want; but on the youkai side, they do not challenge again after being defeated and are not attached to the results of winning or losing..., to say it clearly it is assuredly an inconsequential thing^^;
Mr.anonymous's post was precise so I shall cite it:
Sorry for butting in. However, in my thinking, as for what shall happen when the mist given out by Remilia goes to the human village, in the first place, I have not conceived that the mist would go to the human village. So in other words, there was no bad intention. The reason for giving out the mist is also, "that" (haha so Reimu also went towards the extent of giving a warning, "it can't be helped" (although it is violent, eh?"

The morning that she was expecting to see after a full night's sleep didn't greet her. She thought that something very strange was going on, so she left the shrine to investigate. It's not unusual for her to go out at night, but going out at midnight just after having taken a full night's rest was most unusual. Anyway, nights always make her sleepy, so she'll be going back to bed once the issue is resolved. She followed a trail of power into a bamboo forest, and what she found were very familiar faces..."

• Notes: Confirmed during the Eternal Night Incident, theatrical type
• Reference Level: ★★★
A Spell Card with a mysterious power that turns space inside-out. I'm jealous.
If I had an area enclosed in that barrier, my magic's range would also widen.
I indirectly asked Reimu about it, but it was pointless. Apparently, a barrier is a boundary line between things, and having two barriers on top of each other is equivalent to a world with no boundaries. If you can find the gaps in space that are hiding just about everywhere, you'll be able to set up a duplex barrier.
In other words, she's bad at explaining things."

• Notes: Long distance marathon
• Reference Level: Only Reimu can do it, so it's no good as a reference
Reimu herself only moves in a straight line, but somehow she completely surrounds you. Just as you think she passed behind you, she pops out from in front.
The tengu and Sakuya do something similar, but for the tengu, it's just speed, and for Sakuya, it's just teleportation. Reimu's technique isn't something cheap like that. You probably don't get what I'm talking about, but I don't really get it myself.
Reimu says that "you can't normally see the boundary that this barrier encloses, so it looks like there's countless copies of the enemy." Is it like a small world that loops around on itself? Or maybe it's something like two mirrors facing each other?
Reimu has lots of Spell Cards like this. They don't aim directly at you, so it's like being made fun of."

Hakurei Shrine's Shrine Maiden.
A human that lives on the boundary. She has the ability to fly in the air.
She's the shrine maiden of the Hakurei Shrine, which is located at the edge of Gensokyo and (possibly) has ancient and honourable origins.
She's emotional and noisy, and has a presence wherever she is, but she merges into her surroundings quite easily.
Her ability is being able to fly, that is, being weightless.
The gravity of Earth, any level of stress, and threats of power all mean nothing to her.
Both her mind and body float in the sky of fantasy, a mysterious shrine maiden.
However powerful the opponent is, that means nothing in her presence.
As she evens out whatever status one has, she tends to attract anyone regardless of species, human or youkai.
Her weapons are amulets and a Yin-Yang orb. She is also preferred by mosquitoes.

Notes
She teams with Yukari this time. Focused speed only applies when she's used as a solo character.
She lacks a bit in damage, but is quite easy to use and doesn't need much memorization.
She's quite strong, especially against smaller enemies.
In a word, dastardly."

For your 10th game, Mountain of Faith, you spoke of throwing out several parts from previous works and starting from scratch.
ZUN: Yes, the entire source code was basically rewritten from the ground up, so though it might look similar on the surface, it's quite different. There was more stuff that I didn't need mixed up in the old versions than I realized, and I had to start by cutting it all out."

[399] Strange Creators of Outer World Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom interview with ZUN "And then you came up with the "Ultramarine Orb Elixir".
It would be bad if you used that. You don't know what's going to happen. If you used it, what would the results be? The story that follows in the next work after Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom starts from the point after doing a no-miss clear without using that Elixir.
That's a really high level of difficulty, though (laugh).
Doing a no-miss clear on Legacy Mode is what's canon (laugh). Because the "Ultramarine Orb Elixir" doesn't appear in the story when you do a no-miss clear. It didn't matter whether you used it or not. And, the endings where you do get hit have a better explanation of the Elixir. The reason for that is mostly meta, because when you start games like I Wanna Be The Guy, the other kind of game becomes harder to play and you can't clear them. Your body can't go back to those. Although, you might ask why it's necessary to go back to those in the first place. But it's not like you have to clear the game on Legacy Mode or anything."

[Touhou_Project_-_Legacy_of_Lunatic_Kingdom_Prologue-400] 400.0 ^400.1 Touhou Project - Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom Prologue "When urban legends were manifesting in Gensokyo, a rumour started to spread that "Apollo never went to the Moon".
At the same time, a metallic spider appeared around the mountain. The spider appeared to be slowly wandering around.
Reimu: "So, what's this weird machine you mentioned?"
Sanae: "It happened when the morning mist was still covering the mountain."
It had a form with no imperfections, unbecoming of any other beast or monster.
Mist faded away and the trees withered in the places where the spider passed by.
Reimu: "So, a machine that looked like a spider?"
Sanae: "I only caught a glimpse of it, but it definitely wasn't just some youkai that I mistook."
Reimu: "Maybe it's one of the kappa's tools..."
Once the machine passed by, there were no signs of life.
Tengu flew in the sky overhead, but for some reason, they paid no attention to the spider As the foothills came into the spider's view, it slowly clambered down the cliffside.
Sanae: "This is definitely interesting. I can't imagine that its appearance is just a coincidence."
Sanae began to grow restless.
Reimu: "What is it? It's kind of irritating."
Sanae: "That thing looked just like Curiosity."
—Eientei.
Kaguya: "Seems the time has come for them to arrive."
Eirin: "What shall we do?"
Kaguya: "That's obvious, isn't it? I already prepared myself."
A natural and satisfying answer.
Eirin: "If they're making a move, no human will possibly be able to compete with them.
However, if we were to make any move, we'd fall right into the enemy's hands.
What's more, the youkai of Earth likely can't even interfere to begin with."
Kaguya: "So what do we do?"
Eirin: "I made some medicine for just the occasion. Get Reisen to deliver this to the shrine maiden and her friends."
—Marisa's house, in the Forest of Magic
The seven Occult Balls that had suddenly appeared. Marisa had been investigating just what one of the balls had been; The ball of the Lunar Capital, to be precise.
Marisa: "Looks like this thing was somehow the cause of that while urban legend uproar, but..."
As she sat bewildered, the moon rabbit Reisen appeared there.
—The metallic spider's march of purification cannot be stopped. The trees wither before one's eyes. Not one blade of grass was left in the spider's tracks. When Gensokyo is completely purified, it will be transformed into a perfect world.
Into a beautiful planet with no life on it...""

[475] ZUN's reply to messages on the former Gensou Bulletin Board 2 2003/03 "Q: In EoSD, who is the person Patchouli called "the person who likes to play around with time and space"?
A: That is of course referring to Sakuya. Sakuya controls duration of time, not single moments of time. In the former case of "duration of time", you can't separate it from space. Because of that, manipulating time also means manipulating space, and vice-versa."

If you're holding on to this, Black Markets can't occur. Ergo, if the market god wanted to stop the black markets, she could've done it without breaking a sweat. ...So in the end, she just let them keep happening in a way that she could benefit from, huh?

Oh, my! Your magic circle kind of leaves you gasping for air afterward. But if you time your breathing right... see? You can fire your next magic circle right away! It's "a-um" breathing. *Can be purchased more than once. Decreases even further with multiple copies.
	疾風の下駄タイプ：能力カード移動速度が１段階上がる射命丸文の能力移動速度が早くなるぞ。ついでに魔方陣の移動速度も速くなる。むしろこっちの方が目的で購入したくなるな。目指せ最速クイーン！＊複数購入可	Gale Geta Type: Passive Card^[1050] Aya Shameimaru's ability to increase your movement speed by 1 level. You can move around faster! As a bonus, your magic circle also moves faster, too. Honestly, you might want to purchase it just for the latter effect. Become the fastest speed queen around! *Can be purchased more than once.
	生命爆発の薬タイプ：能力カードライフが１つ増え、被弾時爆発する八意永琳の能力。ライフが１つ増えるぞ。さらに敵弾に当たった場合、霊撃を展開し辺りの敵弾を弾貨に変える。被弾時、ライフは１つ減るが、リスタートにはならずその場で攻撃を継続できるぞ。	Life Explosion Elixir Type: Passive Card^[1053] Eirin Yagokoro's ability to grant 1 extra life, and make you explode upon getting hit. You get a 1-up! And if you hit an enemy bullet, you'll deploy a Spirit Strike that changes nearby bullets into Bullet Money. You still lose 1 life upon getting hit, but you don't have to restart, so you can continue attacking then and there!
	生命の豊穣タイプ：能力カードライフが１つ増える秋穣子の能力通常のライフのカードと異なり、初期装備出来る優れもの。備えあれば憂い無し。やっぱり、人間って食べ物で出来てるんだなぁ。	Bumper Crop of Life Type: Passive Card^[1054]^[1053] Minoriko Aki's ability to give you 1 extra life. Unlike a regular Life Card, this superb product can be equipped from the start of the stage. There's nothing to fear if you're well-prepared. After all, humans are made of the food they eat.
	不屈の脳筋タイプ：能力カードライフが１つ増え、ミスする度に強くなる早鬼の能力ライフが１つ増えるだけでも有難いが、さらにミスする度にパワーアップするぞ。死ぬ度に強くなる……って言うと格好良い気もするが最初から強くあって欲しいもんだ。	Indominable Meathead Type: Passive Card^[1055]^[1053] Saki's ability to gain 1 life, and become stronger with each time you get hit. An extra life is already nice, but for every mistake you make, you'll also get additional power! "I get stronger every time I die"... Sounds cool to say, but I wish I could be strong right from the get-go.
	不死鳥の尾タイプ：能力カードライフを３つ増加させる藤原妹紅の能力これほど前提無しで、強力な能力も無いだろう。攻撃……防御……回避……パターン化…… 不死の存在からみたら全てただのゲームのルールだ。但し、コストは高い。	Phoenix's Tail Type: Passive Card^[1053] Fujiwara no Mokou's ability to increase your lives by 3. Extremely strong, with no strings attached; no ability could be more powerful. Offense... Defense... Evasion... Memorization... From an immortal's perspective, they're all nothing more than rules to a petty game! However, the cost is pretty high.
	地獄の沙汰も金次第タイプ：能力カード弾貨を消費して死を無効化する四季映姫の能力弾貨を３００以上持っていた場合、弾に当たっても弾貨を全て消費して生き返るぞ。金次第では、この世に戻ってこれるのだ。そう、幻想郷で最も腐敗しているのは閻魔達だ！	Money Is The Best Lawyer In Hell Type: Passive Card^[1053] Eiki Shiki's ability to nullify a death by spending your Bullet Money. If you get hit with 300 or more Bullet Money on hand, you can spend it all and come back to life! Depending on how much money you've got, you can return to the mortal realm. That's right! The most corrupt people in Gensokyo are the Yama!
	濡れた大蛇タイプ：能力カード魔方陣で敵弾の動きを止める牛崎潤美の能力魔方陣に当たっている間、敵弾が止まり、さらに動き出した後も弾速が遅くなっているぞ。敵弾だって石化するんだねぇ。	Drenched Giant Snake^[1056] Type: Passive Card^[1057] Urumi Ushizaki's ability to stop bullets with your magic circle. Bullets stop in place upon touching the magic circle, and they're still slowed down after they start to move again. So even bullets can get turned to stone...
	守銭奴の教訓タイプ：能力カードアイテムの回収範囲が広がる河城にとりの能力特に弾貨を集めやすくなるのは魅力的。河童は腕を伸ばすことが出来るのでそれを活用してかき集めているに違いない。	Miser's Advice Type: Passive Card Nitori Kawashiro's ability to expand your item collection radius. Being able to collect Bullet Money more easily is a particularly good selling point. Kappa can stretch their arms out, so this is clearly taking advantage of that fact to scoop up items.
	神山への供物タイプ：能力カード山に捧げられた物を全て回収する八坂神奈子の能力アイテムの自動回収ラインが大幅に下がるぞ “山に捧げられた物は全て自分のものである！” ああ、何という自己中心的な響き！	Offerings to a Sacred Mountain Type: Passive Card Kanako Yasaka's ability to collect every last thing offered to the mountain.

Steal meager amounts of money from fairies with a demeanor that's polite, yet also steals one's will to resist. I'm not interested in fake cash like Bullet Money. What's the most important thing in one's life? You should know the answer.
	かぐや姫の隠し箱タイプ：能力カード弾貨の出現量が増える蓬莱山輝夜の能力これで買い物が楽になる。いやー、貧乏とはおさらばだ。偽物の金だけどな。何でも買ってやるぜ。闇市場限定だけどな！うーん、通販では使えないのか……。	Princess Kaguya's Secret Stash Type: Passive Card Kaguya Houraisan's ability to increase the amount of Bullet Money produced. This'll make shopping much easier. Heck yeah, no more bein' poor for me. I mean, it's fake money, but still. I can buy anything I want! I mean, only on the Black Market, but still! Hmmm... You sure I can't use this for mail-order stuff...?
	詐欺うさぎの足タイプ：能力カードかすりの効果範囲が広くなる因幡てゐの能力闇市場に必要な弾貨が出やすくなるぞ。ウサギの足なんか気色悪いと思うでしょ？大丈夫、てゐ特製イミテーションです。その辺も詐欺。	Scam Rabbit's Foot Type: Passive Card Tewi Inaba's ability to increase your grazing range.^[1058] You'll have an easier time getting the Bullet Money needed for a Black Market. You think rabbit's feet are creepy, don't you? No worries, this is Tewi's special-made imitation. That part's also a scam.
	小石ころ帽子^[1059] タイプ：能力カード敵本体に当たらなくなる古明地こいしの能力随分と地味な能力だし、さほど役に立たないところが何とも彼女らしい。もしかして誰も私のことに気が付いていない？そっかー、それは都合が良いわ。	Pebble Hat Type: Passive Card Koishi Komeiji's ability to prevent you from crashing into enemies. It's a very modest ability, and not very useful at all, but that's exactly what makes it Koishi-esque. Is it just me, or is nobody noticing me? Huh, okay. That's convenient.
	弾幕の亡霊タイプ：能力カード敵弾にかする敵弾を消す事がある西行寺幽々子の能力亡霊は死を怖れない。いや、怖れるわけがないグレイズとは死の恐怖を受け入れることである死への恐怖が有り得ない亡霊にとってグレイズは何の脅威にもならないのだろう。	Danmaku Ghost Type: Passive Card Yuyuko Saigyouji's ability to sometimes erase enemy bullets via grazing. Ghosts do not fear death. Rather, they cannot fear death. Grazing means accepting the fear of death. For a ghost who couldn't possibly fear death, grazing should pose no threat at all.
	弱肉強食の理タイプ：能力カードショットが大きくなる驪駒早鬼の能力パワーが低くても強くなれるので便利な能力いくら頭を使おうが、策を練ろうが圧倒的な力のもとでは誰もが降伏する。結局、大切なのは攻撃力なんだよなぁ	Law of the Survival of the Fittest Type: Passive Card Saki Kurokoma's ability to make your shots bigger. A useful ability that helps make you stronger even if your Power is low. No matter how many smarts you have or schemes you devise, everyone surrenders in the face of overwhelming power. Attack power's what really matters in the end, y'know?
	はじける赤蛙タイプ：能力カードショットがたまに爆発するという洩矢諏訪子の能力メインショットが雑魚キャラを巻き込むようになるカエルに爆竹入れて爆発させるとかよく有る話だけど自然に爆発する訳がないって思っているよね。実は、自然に爆発するんですよ。	Bursting Red Frog Type: Passive Card Suwako Moriya's ability to make your shot sometimes explode. Your main shot will sometimes catch small-fry in the blast. People often talk about exploding frogs with firecrackers back in the day. But you think they don't go around exploding on their own, don't you? As a matter of fact, they do explode naturally.
	頼りになる弟子狸タイプ：能力カードショットを３本増やす二ッ岩マミゾウの能力マジで頼りになるぜ。どんな命令でも聞くし、危険な場所にも行ってくれる。いやぁ、持つべき物は有能な部下だよなー。＊パワハラです	Reliable Tanuki Apprentice Type: Passive Card^[1060] Mamizou Futatsuiwa's ability to increase your main shots by 3.

(This is power harassment)*
	ドラゴンキセルタイプ：能力カードライフがじわじわ増える駒草山如の能力ウェーブを３回クリアするたびにライフが増える。長期戦向きの能力だ。タバコでも吸ってのんびり行きましょか？	Dragon Pipe Type: Passive Card Sannyo Komakusa's ability to gradually increase your stock of lives. For every three waves you clear, you get an extra life. An ability well-suited for the long, drawn-out battles. Shall we relax and smoke some tobacco?
	暴食のムカデタイプ：能力カード敵を攻撃すると自分も強くなる姫虫百々世の能力敵を攻撃する度に徐々に攻撃力が強くなる。後半ほど敵が硬くなるので中々便利かも知れない。持久戦に持ち込んだら、ムカデの勝ちだ！	Gluttonous Centipede Type: Passive Card^[1061] Momoyo Himemushi's ability to get stronger by attacking enemies. Your attack power gradually increases each time you attack an enemy. Enemies get bulkier in the lategame, so it may end up being fairly useful. If you bring a centipede to an endurance match, the centipede always wins!
	酔狂の伊吹瓢タイプ：能力カード酒の力で攻撃力が大幅に上がる萃香の能力入手直後は攻撃力が大幅に上がるが、敵を攻撃する度に効果が減っていってしまう。時間がたつと酔いってのは醒めてしまうんだなぁ。ま、それでも便利なカードだ。	Drunkenly Whimsical Ibuki Gourd Type: Passive Card^[1062] Suika Ibuki's ability to drastically boost your attack power with the power of alcohol. Your attack power shoots up immediately after obtaining this card, but the effect is reduced with each enemy that you attack. Even if you get drunk, you sober up as time passes... Well, it's still a pretty useful card.
	商売上手な招き猫タイプ：能力カード闇市場の品揃えをよくする豪徳寺ミケの能力闇市場に並ぶカードの数が増えるぞ選択肢が多いことは良いことだ。ま、いつも同じ物ばっか選んじゃうんだけどね。	Maneki-neko with Good Business Skills Type: Passive Card^[1063] Mike Goutokuji's ability to improve product lineups during Black Markets. The variety of cards you can buy in the Black Market will increase! Having more choices is a good thing. I always end up buyin' the same things, though.
	山童的買い物術タイプ：能力カードカードの購入時に少し安く買える山城たかねの能力　商売の鉄則は、安く仕入れて高く売る事だしかし安物を買うことが重要なのでは無い山童は、貴重品を安く仕入れる技術を持っているのだ	Yamawaro Shopping Technique Type: Passive Card Takane Yamashiro's ability to buy cards for slightly cheaper. The ironclad rule of commerce: buy cheap, sell high. But that doesn't mean you have to buy cheap products. Yamawaro have techniques that let them stock high-quality goods at low prices.
	命を焚く松明タイプ：能力カードクールタイムが短くなるクラウンピースの能力全ての使用カードのクールタイムが若干短くなるぞ。焚き火を見るとリラックスするらしいですね。でも彼女の持つ松明を見てはいけない。とてもクールな気持ちではいられないでしょう。	Life-Burning Torch Type: Passive Card^[1064] Clownpiece's ability to reduce your cooldown times. The cooldown time for every Active Card becomes a bit shorter! Watching a bonfire apparently makes you feel more relaxed. But you shouldn't look at the torch that she's carrying. It'll make it really hard to keep a cool head.
	抗いがたきジュリ扇タイプ：能力カード次のウェーブから難易度が最高になる依神女苑の能力　誰だよ、こんな疫病神を呼んだ奴。こんなカード手に入れたらもう死ぬしかないじゃん。絶対に彼女には近づかないようにしよ。＊ボスの難易度は変化しません	Irresistible Julie Fan^[1065] Type: Passive Card^[1030] Joon Yorigami's ability to maximize the difficulty level from the next wave onward. Who the heck invited this pestilence god?! If I get this card, dyin' is the only option I'll have left! I have got to avoid going anywhere near her. *Does not change the difficulty of bosses.
	純粋な自己肯定感タイプ：能力カードステージの最終局面まで飛ばす純狐の能力ザコなんかと戦っても馬鹿馬鹿しいでしょ？もうボスまで一気に進めてしまいましょう。この私が負ける訳無いわ。 “圧倒的、自己肯定感！”	Pristine Self-Confidence Type: Passive Card^[1030] Junko's ability to skip straight to the end portion of a stage.

	百回目のブラックマーケットタイプ：能力カード手に入れてないカードが出る山城たかねの能力ステージをクリアすると、そのステージでまだ手に入れてないカードがある場合、それが出てきます。まだまだカードを出し渋っている奴がいるなぁ。そんなことしたって価値は上がらないわ。	Hundredth Black Market Type: Passive Card^[1066]^[1067] Takane Yamashiro's ability to summon cards you haven't obtained. When you clear a stage, if there's any cards in that stage that you haven't obtained yet, those cards will show up. Looks like there's still some folks clinging to their cards, huh...? Sitting on them isn't going to make them any more valuable, you know.

	画面の境界タイプ：使用カード自由に画面端を移動出来る八雲紫の能力画面端で使用ボタンを押すと反対側にワープ出来る多くの人間、妖怪達にとって “画面端って一体何だ？”と話題性から興味を持つ人が多い人気のカードだ	Screen Border Type: Active Card Yukari Yakumo's ability to let you freely warp between screen edges. Press the card-use button on the edge of the screen, and you'll warp to the other edge. A card that's popular amongst many humans and youkai, because "what is a screen edge, anyway?" is a great topic for getting people's interest.
	打ち出の小槌タイプ：使用カード敵弾をお金に換える少名針妙丸の能力勇敢な小人は巨大な鬼を相手に打ち勝った鬼が落としていった“打ち出の小槌”はどんな願いも叶える事が出来る代物だった “敵弾がお金だったら良いのになぁ”	Miracle Mallet Type: Active Card Shinmyoumaru Sukuna's ability to change enemy bullets into Funds. A brave inchling vanquished a giant oni. The "Miracle Mallet" that the oni dropped in its wake was an object that could grant any wish imaginable. "Oh, if only the bullets were all money...!"
	忍耐の要石タイプ：使用カード敵弾を消す要石を出す比那名居天子の能力かなりの量の敵弾を消すことが出来る頼りになる石攻撃こそが最大の防御？耐久スペルカードの存在する弾幕の世界では防御こそが最大の攻撃さ！＊今回は耐久スペルはないけどね	Keystone of Endurance Type: Active Card Tenshi Hinanawi's ability to summon a bullet-erasing keystone.

	要石ミサイルタイプ：使用カード要石を投げつける比那名居天子の能力要石は敵弾を消しながら真っ直ぐ飛んでいくぞ。攻撃力も高くて防御にもなる。そう、要石とはそういうもんなのだ。	Keystone Missile Type: Active Card Tenshi Hinanawi's ability to throw a keystone.

Almost all danmaku is just background noise. Only a small fraction of the bullets are truly important. Place your hands together and focus, and you should see only the bullets that pose a threat to you. Simple, right?
	ヴァンパイアファングタイプ：使用カード近距離に牙で攻撃するレミリアの能力超攻撃力の接近攻撃を何度でも出来るカードスペルカード？　馬鹿馬鹿しいねそんなもん、一噛みで解決だよ。	Vampire Fang Type: Active Card Remilia Scarlet's ability to deal close-range damage with a fang. A card that lets you perform as many super-powerful, close-range attacks as you'd like. Spell Cards? How silly. You can finish something like that off in one bite.
	地底の太陽タイプ：使用カード全てを焼き尽くす霊烏路空の能力究極の攻撃力、終わらない無敵時間長すぎるクールタイム。ちまちま弾幕を避けるとかかっこつけのやることだ能力者はただ、全て焼き尽くせばいい。	Underground Sun Type: Active Card Utsuho Reiuji's ability to burn everything to ash. Ultimate attack power, endless invincibility time, and a way-too-long cooldown time. Nudging your way through danmaku is for wimpy showboaters! If you're really powerful, you just need to burn everything down.
	アイテムの季節タイプ：使用カード使用するとリリーホワイトを呼び出す能力彼女は小金持ちだ。何故かお金と弾貨を大量に持っている！倒して奪え！ただ、彼女も弾を撃ってくるから気を付けろ。呼ばれる度に強くなっていくぞ！	Item Season Type: Active Card An ability card that summons Lily White when used. She's got a small fortune. Somehow, she's managed to get tons of money and Bullet Money! Defeat her and take it all! Just be careful, because she shoots bullets at you too. Every time you summon her, she gets stronger!
	重低音バスドラムタイプ：使用カード近距離の敵弾を消し去る堀川雷鼓の能力地味ながら何度も叩けるぞ敵弾って何で出来ていると思う？あれは波動なのよ、つまり音波で打ち消しあうることに、何の不思議もないのよ	Heavy Bass Drum Type: Active Card Raiko Horikawa's ability to wipe away enemy bullets at close range. It's plain, but you can thwack it over and over! What do you think enemy bullets are made of? They're waves. Ergo, there's nothing strange about being able to cancel them out with sound waves!
	サイコキネシスタイプ：使用カード敵弾（レーザー除く）を跳ね返す宇佐見菫子の能力超能力があったら何を使いたい？テレポーテーション？　テレパシー？うーん、やっぱり都合の良いサイコキネシスかなだって、それ以外は技術で何とかなりそうでしょ？	Psychokinesis Type: Active Card Sumireko Usami's ability to reflect enemy bullets (except lasers). If you had psychic powers, which one would you use? Teleportation? Telepathy? Hmm, I guess I'd have to go with some nice, convenient psychokinesis. I mean, you can take care of everything besides that with technology, right?
	霊力の標本瓶タイプ：使用カードパワーを消費して霊撃を撃てる菅牧典の能力弾幕に囲まれて危ないと思った時、もう無理だ、諦めた、って時、貴方はどうします？そう、霊撃を使いますよね、そうですよね。そんな霊撃が撃ち放題になるカードですよ。	Spirit Power Sample Bottle Type: Active Card Tsukasa Kudamaki's ability to fire a Spirit Strike in exchange for Power. When you're surrounded by danmaku and sense danger-- when you think "it's over!", "I'm finished!"-- what would you do? Why, yes. You'd use a Spirit Strike. That's exactly what you'd do. This card lets you fire off as many Spirit Strikes as you want.
	大天狗の麦飯タイプ：使用カード何回でもパワーが増やせる飯綱丸龍の能力使用する度にパワーが１増えるぞ。何で山に入ってからパワーを集めているんだ？最初から大量の食料を持って、山に入れば良いのに。	Great Tengu's Barley Rice Type: Active Card Megumu Iizunamaru's ability to increase your Power any number of times. You'll get +1.0 Power every time you use this card. Why are you collecting Power after setting foot on the mountain? You should pack tons of food to begin with, and then set out.
	わかさぎの鱗タイプ：使用カード少しの間無敵になるわかさぎ姫の能力小魚って、すぐ見失うよね。もしかしたらその瞬間、本当にいなくなってるんじゃないかな。小魚しか知らない異世界があるのかもね。	Smelt's Scales Type: Active Card^[1068] Wakasagihime's ability to become briefly invincible. It's so easy to lose sight of small fish, isn't it? Maybe they're actually disappearing for that brief moment. Perhaps there's a parallel world that only small fish know about.

You won't be hit by bullets as long as you're hidden by the fabric. Why? Because you're hiding, of course. You can't move while invulnerable, which makes it hard to use, but the cooldown time is short, so you can use it again and again.
