Yukkuri Yuyuko's usual outfit. The triangle on her head crumples and straightens with her mood.
Take it Easy

Gacha Pickup
I'm Yukkuri Yuyuko. As the yukkuri mistress of Hakugyokurou, I take it easy, bouncing around in the Netherworld. Yukkuri Youmuuuu, come here.
Introduction
I'm Yukkuri Yuyuko. Yuyuko does all the work managing the spirits, and yukkuris can't die, so I just take it easy, bouncing around Hakugyokurou. I spend my time eating all kinds of things and playing with Yukkuri Youmu. But, like all people with too much time on their hands, I tend to ponder. Mostly about myself and the other yukkuris. What exactly are we?
Purple Heart
You're a yukkuri without a Yukkuri Master. That makes you special. I know that at least.
Blue Heart
I would trust you more if you shared some of that food with me.
Green Heart
It's a common misconception, but Yuyuko Saigyouji isn't a glutton. She merely enjoys eating a bit more than other people. Oh, no, I'm definitely a glutton.
Orange Heart
Yukkuri Youmu helps out Youmu in the garden, but since she's a yukkuri, she mostly just gets in the way. That's why I'm being nice and getting in Yukkuri Youmu's way. Would you like to help me?
Pink Heart
Remember when Yukkuri Youmu was training with her swords, and we launched a pincer attack on her with swords of our own? That was fun, wasn't it? Both sides had two swords, so it was an even match. Next time, we should get Yuyuko to join us and attack Yukkuri Youmu from three directions at once.
Spring
I'm always there, but come spring, I share my power with everyone and fade with the wind. Am I talking about cherry blossoms? Is that what you think?
Login
I've been practicing my cooking while I was waiting for you. Mostly because if I learn how to cook, I can eat whenever I want. Here, try this yummy rice porridge I made.
Enhancement
This means I can eat even more, right? What should I eat next?
Return
Now that we're back, the first thing we gotta do is get some tea and some snacks.
Home 1
I know we shouldn't make the Saigyou Ayakashi bloom, but there's a smaller cherry tree right next to it that never blooms either. I was thinking of gathering spring to make that tree bloom instead...
Home 2
Yuuu-yuu! Yuyuyuyu! ...Apparently, that's what Yuyuko hears when I talk to her, even when I say her full name, Yuyuko Saigyouji.
Home 3
Yuyuko thought of a game where she'd play keepy uppy, using me as the ball. It was fun bouncing up and down, but Youmu and Yukkuri Youmu got mad and made us stop.
Reaction 1
Take it easy.
Reaction 2
Yukkuri Youmuuuu, come here.
Reaction 3
I'm already hungry.
Task
I'd like to try doing tasks for a change. But don't tell Yukkuri Youmu, OK?
Task Complete
Teehee. Yukkuri Youmu won't believe it when she hears that we completed a task together.
Mail
Mail? You mean the thing I just ate? I wonder who sent it.
Errand Finished
Thanks for going on that errand. Look at these pretty flowers.
Start of Battle
I'm Yukkuri Yuyuko.
Mid-Wave
Yukkuri Youmuuuu? Where are youuuu?
Victory
I can manipulate death, and this is what happens when you make me serious... Just kidding. Did I scare you?
Defeat
Would it be bad if I just gave up... No, I'm sure the others could handle it... Right?

Character Information
Temperament: Yuki!
Yuki! (a Touhou LW original) refers to pretty snowflakes dancing in the sky, and it's also an expression of Yukkuri Yuyuko's joy as she dives head-first into the snow. The carefree yukkuri mistress of Hakugyokurou is incredibly curious, and her heart fills with such joy at seeing snow that she can't help but wonder what would happen if she stopped the arrival of spring. The cold snow will eventually melt and fade away, but since Yuyuko Saigyouji is a ghost, she can remain in the Netherworld forever. Who knows if the same applies to her yukkuri?
Yukkuri Yuyuko is endowed with the temperament of a yukkuri ghost (Water Phase) and an easygoing attitude that lets her dodge all of Yukkuri Youmu's criticisms (Moon Essence).
The flexible and patient Water Phase resists Metal Phase, because metal collects water, but it is weak to Earth Phase, because earth directs water.
The cooperative and indecisive Moon Essence resists the alluring and arrogant Sun Essence, but it is weak to the diverse and uncooperative Star Essence.
Ability/Backstory: Capable of taking it easy
Yukkuri Yuyuko's ability (a Touhou LW original). The "capable of taking it easy" ability held by yukkuris incorporates a toned-down version of their Yukkuri Master's signature ability. This means that Yukkuri Yuyuko is also capable of slowly manipulating death.
People usually only think about death when someone they know passes away due to an accident or illness. However, death is a constant companion to all living creatures. You could say that living is the same as dying very slowly. This means that Yukkuri Yuyuko's ability to slowly manipulate death might give her power over every slow life and death in the universe.
Yukkuri Yuyuko lives a life of tedium. Yukkuris can't die, so she leaves all the work of managing the Netherworld to her Yukkuri Master. And since yukkuris cannot read, she can't write down any of the poems she makes or read any of the books in Hakugyokurou's library. That's why she usually finds herself pondering about herself and about death...
Attacks
Yukkuri Butterfly Spirits
Yukkuri Yuyuko's Spread Shot (a Touhou LW original). She gestures with her fan, causing butterflies to fly out of it and attack. Yukkuri Yuyuko loves the big, pretty butterflies so much that she ends up flapping her fan too hard, and it goes flying too. She has to ask Yukkuri Youmu to go and get it for her.
Bullets
Death Butterfly
Life Butterfly
Night Butterfly
Yummy Butterfly
Yucky Butterfly
Yukkuri Yuyuko's Fan
Light of the Yukkuri
Yukkuri Yuyuko's Focus Shot (a Touhou LW original). She attacks with bright, pink lasers that pierce through her opponents. These lasers seem a bit too powerful for a yukkuri, but Yukkuri Yuyuko actually shot them by accident while trying to hold in a sneeze. Maybe she has hay fever. Wait, if yukkuris can sneeze, where are their noses...?
Bullets
Seedling Glow
Sneeze Light
Sniffle Laser
Piercing Dazzle
Spring Ray
Cherry Blossom Wave
Easy Sign: Ghastly Dream
Yukkuri Yuyuko's Spell Card (a Touhou LW original). A flower blooms beneath her opponent, causing countless butterflies to fly up in a spiral.
"Hey, Yukkuri Youmu. Don't you think it would be fun to fly up there surrounded by all the pretty butterflies?"
Before Yukkuri Youmu could stop her, the yukkuri mistress of Hakugyokurou jumped into her own attack.
Bullets
Dream Butterfly
Nightmare Butterfly
Lucid Dream Butterfly
Fluttering Butterfly
Falling Butterfly
Death Metamorphosis
Easy Sign: Deadly Lance of the Swallowtail Butterfly Crest
Yukkuri Yuyuko's Spell Card (a Touhou LW original). Butterfly spirits burst forth like soul-piercing lances from a folding screen adorned with a cherry tree. At least that is how this Spell Card is supposed to work. The butterflies don't really function as lances when they flutter along so slowly. The problem is that seeing the cherry blossom on the folding screen puts Yukkuri Yuyuko in the mood for a picnic, and she can't stop thinking about yummy fried food.

Yukkuri Parinirvana
Yukkuri Yuyuko's Last Word (a Touhou LW original). An attack that eradicates everything caught in its rays of resurrection and death. Half asleep, Yukkuri Yuyuko happily spins with her bullets and almost gets blown away by the cherry blossom petals. The way she spins in a great wheel in her sleep is evocative of both death and life.

Skills
Skill: At Kisaragi's Squish
Apparently, yukkuris can be more or less squishy depending on the time of year. However, it's possible that someone just made that up for a laugh. Only in this world would someone think to end a poem with this line.
Skill: Spiral Triangle
The crown on Yukkuri Yuyuko's head crumples and straightens with her mood. You might think it crumples when she's at her weakest, but it could also be a sign that she's conserving her power for a big, decisive attack.
Skill: Yukkuri Ladle
Yukkuri Yuyuko is trying to improve her cooking skills because she's a big eater and wants to live a healthy yukkuri lifestyle. To that end, she created the ultimate cooking utensil: a ladle. She mostly uses it to steal a taste straight from the pot.
