My name's Hakurei Reimu. I can't lose now I've hammered my needles back into shape. This time, I'll get spring back!
Introduction
Nooo, I was so close to beating her! Tch. Now I gotta start all over! ...Huh? Is it spring in Gensokyo? Did I defeat that Saigyouji lady?! I don't get it, but if the incident has been resolved, that's all that matters! You think so too, right? Another incident resolved by me, Reimu Hakurei! ...What do you mean I didn't resolve anything?!
Purple Heart
It's true... There's another me who looks slightly different...!
Blue Heart
So there are worlds like this one as well as the Netherworld...!
Green Heart
Yukari Yakumo...? Is she a youkai? No, I don't know her. I'm a shrine maiden, so I don't associate with youkai. Isn't that obvious?!
Orange Heart
Well, sure. There are youkai like Remilia that I know. But this Yukari Yakumo... I have vague memories of someone putting me through rigorous training when I was little... but that can't have been her.
Pink Heart
Taking care of the boundary? Of course, that's my job. Although, I don't actually have to do anything. That's thanks to the youkai? What are you on about? There's no way a youkai could maintain the barrier. It's clearly a job for a human shrine maiden.
Summer
I got used to Gensokyo being stuck in winter. Now I can't bear the heat! I wanna go to this "beach" place. I don't think I ever will though.
Login
Even I had to have been raised by someone! But I barely remember it. I remember all about Marisa and Mister Rinnosuke though...
Enhancement
Now I can take on that Saigyouji lady! It'll just take a prick from my needles!
Return
This world's battles of bullets aren't so bad. I actually had fun.
Home 1
It must've been that Yukari Yakumo who gave me these Yin-Yang Orbs and taught me how to use them. I finally figured it out after all these years!
Home 2
I'm sure that youkai, Yukari Yakumo, also taught me how to use divine power. She's a youkai, but I bet she's kinda like a hermit too.
Home 3
The one who taught me to use needles... can't have been Yukari Yakumo. These needles were probably left behind by a karakasa-obake or something.
Reaction 1
Yukari Yakumo's the one occasionally taking pictures?
Reaction 2
...Oh, she fell asleep on my lap. *pats head*
Reaction 3
(Is this what it's like to have a little sister?)
Task
Tasks? You're pretty smart for someone so little. Do you want a rice cracker?
Task Complete
You finished your task? Then how about we have some tea?
Mail
Yep, this mail is for you. You should read it already.
Errand Finished
The errand girls are back. I wonder if they bought enough rice crackers.
Start of Battle
Don't break that seal! I won't let you revive people just for fun!
Mid-Wave
Calling back the dead and making people die aren't the same! You'll just cause trouble!
Victory
Will you return the spring you stole? I wanna make the cherry blossoms bloom already!
Defeat
Why is she trying to break that strange seal? She's doing it on purpose!

Character Information
Temperament: Yuki Bare
Yuki Bare (a Touhou LW original) refers to blue skies that come after a period of snow. This is an apt temperament for this Reimu, who is tasked with clearing the snow clouds from Gensokyo's skies. She's endowed with Wood Phase, which longs for spring, and Sun Essence, which shines through snowy weather.
The strong and kind Wood Phase resists Water Phase, because water nourishes wood, but it is weak to Metal Phase, because metal carves wood.
The alluring and arrogant Sun Essence resists the diverse and uncooperative Star Essence, but it is weak to the cooperative and indecisive Moon Essence.
Ability/Backstory: Mainly capable of flight
The ability of Reimu Hakurei from the world with a never-ending winter (a Touhou LW original). It is essentially the same as our version of Reimu's ability. However, despite having this ability, this world's Reimu is yet to resolve the Spring Snow Incident.
This Reimu cannot defeat Yuyuko. Is it because of a lack of training? A lack of self-discipline? Perhaps a lack of focus? Even if she were to devote herself to training now, she'd never be able to keep up with the incident's expansion. However, Reimu is far too young to give up entirely. (She still has a long life ahead of her.) She has two ideas. Well, technically, two Reimus from two worlds each have one idea…
The first idea is to make contact with whoever raised her to be the Hakurei shrine maiden. All she has are vague memories, but of those she has many. Do they all point to the same person, or do they lead to multiple people, each with their own plans and designs? Either way, she knows the person she's looking for isn't the previous shrine maiden. Are they some sort of psychological cryptid? Or perhaps a beast youkai chimera? Whoever it was that raised Reimu, they should have some answers.
The second idea is to learn the truth of the Great Hakurei Barrier's past. Reimu was certain that the barrier had been made by monks from the outside world since that's what was written in the Gensokyo Record. However, it seems other theories exist. Tending to the barrier is an important part of being the Hakurei shrine maiden, and Reimu wants to uncover the truth about it and its connection to the current incident.
For now, it seems this Reimu is acting on the first idea.
Reimu's Dream Sign loadout includes barriers, which she uses as bombs, and two types of straight-firing needles. After memorizing her enemies' movement patterns, she uses her overwhelming front-facing firepower to annihilate them. However, Reimu believes ofuda may be more effective―at least until she memorizes the movement patterns. There's only one way to see if other items are more effective, and that's to try them for real. Then again, perhaps using items she's used to is still her best bet...
Attacks
Persuasion Needle (Cherry Blossom)
The Spread Shot of Reimu Hakurei from the world with a never-ending winter. In true shrine maiden fashion, she attacks her enemies with sharp needles. Needle-firing shrine maidens are rare, but everyone in Gensokyo is used to it by now. Apparently, Reimu aims for youkai's pressure points with her needles, so perhaps they all end up feeling so relaxed they lose the will to fight. Or maybe Reimu uses her needles to interfere with her opponents' nervous systems. That's a pretty scary thought! Reimu's fighting style is often said to be somewhat unfitting of a shrine maiden, but it may well find its roots in Taoism and the divine powers said to be related to it. Come to think of it, acupuncture also stems from Taoism.
The Focus Shot of Reimu Hakurei from the world with a never-ending winter. In true shrine maiden fashion, she attacks her enemies with sharp objects made to exterminate youkai. Since Hakurei Shrine collects very little offering money and no one pays Reimu to resolve incidents, exterminating youkai that trouble humans and claiming the reward money is apparently an important source of income for her. She may make some money by performing Shinto rituals, but still... In any case, when it comes to exterminating youkai, Reimu doesn't mess around. (Although, some may disagree.) Judging from Reimu's comfortable lifestyle, she must be exterminating youkai on a regular basis.

Dream Sign: Sealing Circle
A Spell Card of Reimu Hakurei from the world with a never-ending winter. She creates a tall barrier centered on herself. It's said she does this using a cursed ofuda. This Spell Card is thought to act as a foundation for her other barrier-related techniques, which explains why it's so common to see her use it.

Dream Sign: Duplex Barrier
A Spell Card of Reimu Hakurei from the world with a never-ending winter. With the power of her mind, she creates two barriers. It's said that barriers are manifestations of a strong will. The strength of your mind directly translates to the strength of the barrier, and if your consciousness wanes, the barrier will become ineffective. This also appears to be true for those affected by a barrier, as it's known that objects devoid of sentience can pass freely through the Great Hakurei Barrier. During battles of bullets, everyone is hyper-focused, so barriers are extremely effective against them.

Winter-Dispelling Fantasy Nature
The Last Word of Reimu Hakurei from the world with a never-ending winter (a Touhou LW original). She prays for winter to end in this attack. The destruction of the seasons is the destruction of the year. And the destruction of the year is equivalent to the destruction of the world. All systems of order are built upon the flow of temperament. Even if Reimu isn't aware of it, the truth underpinning the world is being warped. The world is not ruled by humans, but by a great being that transcends their perception. And to fix the order of the world, you must make contact with them. But who could it be...?
