I'm Youmu Konpaku, the guitarist of the Netherworld band Hakugyokurou. But I've still got much to learn!
Introduction
I'm Youmu Konpaku, Hakugyokurou's fencing instructor, and I can play the guitar... You can't be serious, Miss Sakuya! There's no way I could do that! My guitar is merely an accompaniment to my master's elegant dance! That's what Grandpa Youki taught me. He said I must protect Lady Yuyuko with this guitar that a youkai fashioned out of Roukanken and Hakurouken. It's been passed down through generations of the Konpaku family. ...What? Electric guitars aren't that old? Y-You might have a point. You seem to know a lot about this! Do you like music? Can I play something for you?
Purple Heart
That's a strange instrument you've got there. I've never seen anything like it before!
Blue Heart
We once held an incident concert at Hakugyokurou. That's when I first met Miss Reimu and Miss Marisa.
Green Heart
Back when we were gathering spring, I tried to stop them from interfering with my guitar swordplay. What's guitar swordplay? It's swordplay using a guitar!
Orange Heart
Crossed Swords is the combined form of my two blades, so technically, I'm still dual-wielding. Don't worry. I can turn them back at any time. That's crazy cool, don't you think? I'm glad you agree!
Pink Heart
Miss Reimu, Miss Marisa, Miss Sanae, Reisen, and Miss Sakuya all look so cool and fancy when they're up on stage performing... But me... I'm still not there yet. I'm only half as cute as them! Still... I know I can double my cuteness!
Summer
Summer means outdoor music festivals! I'm half-human, half-phantom, so my skin's a bit colder than yours. I'll touch your cheek! See? It's cold, right?
Login
I've gotten so used to my old techniques that I find it really hard to play in a modern, cutesy-cool style... But I make sure to train as hard as I can every day! I'm gonna train all day today, too!
Enhancement
My training paid off. Now I can cut even better with my guitar!
Return
I knew it. Nothing beats guitar swordplay. I can cut pretty much anything with my blades of sound!
Home 1
Thinking about it now, it's kinda strange how my traditional guitar swordplay techniques have been handed down through the generations. What was Grandpa Youki talking about...?
Home 2
Everyone cheers me on when I try my best to perform. I feel bad that I can't deliver the performance they deserve... I want to hurry up and become a master guitarist.
Home 3
Some music fans in the village said my performance was distinctive... I guess that means I still have a lot to improve. I have to focus even harder!
Reaction 1
Distant flowers. Your image becomes illusion. The wind is fierce. The awaited never come... Finished.
Reaction 2
What do you think of the lyrics for my new song? Pretty modern, huh?
Reaction 3
How did you manage to sleep on my lap while I'm practicing guitar...? *pats head*

Mid-Wave
The child spirits at the Sanzu River are cheering me on!
Victory
My guitar-sword teaches me the truth. All I have to do now... is cut!
Defeat
That wasn't much of a band battle... and it was mostly my fault.

Character Information
Temperament: Hekiten
Hekiten (a Touhou LW original) refers to a cloudless sky. This is an apt temperament for Youmu, a gardener who enjoys festivals. Youmu plays her Crossed Swords (Metal Phase) as the amateur guitarist of the Netherworld band Hakugyokurou (Star Essence).
The cold and silent Metal Phase resists Earth Phase, because earth bears metal, but it is weak to Fire Phase, because fire refines metal.
The diverse and uncooperative Star Essence resists the cooperative and indecisive Moon Essence, but it is weak to the charming and arrogant Sun Essence.
Ability/Backstory: Capable of sword fighting (Festival)
The ability of Youmu Konpaku from the world of music festivals (a Touhou LW original). It's basically the same as the abilities belonging to most other Youmus. After observing and learning from multiple failed attempts to prevent the Lost Word Incident from spreading, the denizens of this Youmu's world have decided to try and resolve it by holding music festivals.
The Netherworld band Hakugyokurou is fresh on the scene! You may be wondering if two people count as a band, but it's not like there are any hard and fast rules about this kind of thing. Youmu plays the guitar while Yuyuko sings, dances, and does whatever else she feels like doing. It would be nice if the Saigyou Ayakashi could also contribute as a drummer, but it probably can't manage more than one or two beats per year.
Hakugyokurou was behind one of the many concert incidents. They stole Gensokyo's spring in what was essentially a grand marketing campaign that spread the word about their band and forced people to attend their concert. As they gathered more and more spring, Yuyuko's performance grew ever more intense and electrifying. It created a unique atmosphere where the audience couldn't quite decide if it was best thing ever or if they should try to stop it.
Yuyuko truly is the star of Hakugyokurou. She's a beautiful princess who's exceptionally skilled at singing and dancing. Youmu, her servant, was fine with that. Even if no one noticed her, she was happy to play the guitar by Yuyuko's side and support her. That was until Yuyuko said she would perform better if she were free to express herself. Yuyuko was insistent that she should try performing solo. Youmu wasn't at all confident and tried to argue that she wouldn't know what to do without Yuyuko on stage beside her. But then Yuyuko pointed out that she would never improve if she always relied upon her.
Youmu realized the truth in Yuyuko's words. She thought she was shining on stage, but really, she was just reflecting Yuyuko's radiance. Still, that doesn't necessarily mean she could shine alone. Youmu couldn't believe anyone would want to see her half-baked guitar.
"Youmu, what makes a performance good?"
"Ummm, playing perfectly? Or with exceptional skill?"
"Are you sure? Have you tried asking what other musicians think?"
"No, that'd be kinda embarrassing..."
"I see. Then that's what you should work on first."
Youmu knew Yuyuko was right, but she still thought it was super unfair that she suddenly had to perform alone in front of everyone!

"Learning to play the guitar is just like training to fight with a sword. You need a lot of practice, and there's always more to learn. Grandpa Youki mastered the guitar before he went off somewhere. That is the path I must follow. I'm sure of it! I just gotta focus, erase my doubts, and strike suddenly! Hyaaaaaa!"
"Youmuuuu? What are you doing? If that were a normal guitar, you would've broken it into a million pieces. "

When combined, they form the ultimate guitar! ...At least, that's what Grandpa said. But did they even have guitars back then? It all sounds rather suspicious. Also, I'm pretty sure he called it the ultimate guitar because it's impossible to break. Which is good, because I've got a lot of training to do... I won't let him down!"

Half-Baked Matsuyoi-Reflecting Recital
The Last Word of Youmu Konpaku from the world of music festivals (a Touhou LW original). She brings the concert to a triumphant conclusion.
Youmu was lost in thought as she prepared for her debut concert. She still couldn't wrap her head around how combining her two swords gave her a guitar. Shouldn't they make a pair of scissors or something? Perhaps that's what inspired her to tie her fancy new ribbons that way.
Checking in the mirror, she was pretty happy with how she looked. She looked cute. But that just made her all the more aware of her subpar guitar skills. She was worried that no one would show up. Like, she would much rather buy tickets to see Miss Sakuya's perfect performance or one of Miss Reimu and Miss Marisa's bright and energetic concerts. But as she stepped out on stage... she was greeted by the roar of a packed crowd. She stood there, completely stunned, until she spied Yuyuko in the back row, smiling smugly with her arms folded.
"Youmu, this crowd just goes to show that it's not all about―"
"Lady Yuyuko?! The concert's starting! You're meant to be up here singing!"
