The usual outfit of Marisa, who has almost reached the end. The Dark Flyer flies with the magic of memories.

I'm Marisa Kirisame. C'mon, hop on the back of my Dark Flyer. I'm gonna go as fast as I can, so try not to bite your tongue.
Introduction
Sup, it's been a while, huh? I doubt it's necessary, but allow me to introduce myself. I'm Marisa Kirisame, a pitifully weak magician stuck in that shrine maiden's shadow. You're bound to reach a dead-end when you strive to become the strongest. But... I'm sure you understand that's no reason to give up. We can become infinitely strong by studying and learning from our mistakes precisely because we're weak. C'mon, let's climb this hill together.
Purple Heart
See, I told you so. We've known each other for quite a while.
Blue Heart
I'm just an ordinary human, and all that's keeping me alive right now is the light of the stars.
Green Heart
When I lost everything, I was saved by the tools I had collected and forgot about. I regained some memories with each tool I recovered.
Orange Heart
I spend a lot of time studying since I'm such a weak magician, and I think I've discovered a category of tools called Attribute Items. They're items that copy traits from their wielders. This might be related to how tools can store memories.
Pink Heart
The opposite of an Attribute Item is called a Regalia Item. They grant traits to their wielders. Sounds kinda scary, huh? But it's thanks to them that I managed to regain my sense of self.
Summer
It's so hot. Maybe I should grab that ice fairy and get her to cool me off... Huh? I feel like I've said that before, but I don't remember when or where.
Login
I've loaded my broom with all the items I've collected. And depending on the circumstances, I might even return them to their original owners. I've got Youmu's swords, Sanae's gohei, Reisen's gun, and Sakuya's knives.
Enhancement
My research is really getting somewhere. Let's keep this up to slowly but surely increase the number of opponents we can defeat.
Return
I'm back, and I'd really like to take a nap... but I should at least check over my tools first.
Home 1
I named my broom Dark Flyer. I was never really interested in the items that I had already collected, so it came as quite a surprise when I found out they could be used like this.
Home 2
There's an accelerating device I call MX attached to my broom. It's an amalgamation of all the magic books I borrowed from the other magicians. Though, it runs on fuel extracted from mushrooms.
Home 3
The Yearning Love Spark I built into my mini hakkero lights my way. It references the info in my grimoire to help me dodge bullets.
Reaction 1
That shrine maiden left quite a lot of tools behind.
Reaction 2
She left her ofuda, her needles, and her Yin-Yang Orb replicas.
Reaction 3
They're all things that remember her.
Task
Even boring tasks might lead to interesting discoveries.
Task Complete
Well done. Hard work has its own rewards. I love studying hard too.
Mail
You've got a letter. I wonder what's inside... Just kidding! I wouldn't look through your mail without asking first.
Errand Finished
Looks like the errand girls are back. If they bring you any tools, send them my way, OK?
Start of Battle
C'mon, Dark Flyer. Fly to her!
Mid-Wave
Sorry, but I can't deal with you right now. I'm pretty busy.
Victory
My doubts about my own power continue to grow with each victory. I've still got a long way to go... I can still get stronger.
Defeat
I'll never forget how I lost. All other paths lead to darkness.

Character Information
Temperament: Toori-Ame
Toori-Ame (a Touhou LW original) refers to a sudden shower that only lasts for a short period of time. This is an apt temperament for this Marisa, who continues to journey across parallel worlds, searching for the cause of the incident.
Marisa's temperament hasn't changed at all, and she remains the same ordinary human as always. She can fit in anywhere and make anything her own (Water Phase) and fly wherever her heart takes her (Star Essence). Those are her most defining traits.
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 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 using magic (Lost)
The ability of Marisa Kirisame, who has almost reached the end (a Touhou LW original). Marisa completely lost this ability due to a Lost Word. She is currently regaining it little by little, though not through restoring or replicating her old ability, but with a newly constructed original ability that formed a core to build upon. She has continued to travel across worlds to try and end the Lost Word Incident.
Marisa is just an ordinary human, so the big incident that erases everything in its path should have spelled the literal end of her existence. She had no means of combating it on her own, but she did have magic items―the random Attribute Items and Regalia Items strewn about her room that she hoarded for no other reason but to have them.
Attribute Items are what Marisa calls items that inherit traits from their wielders, for example, the Jeweled Pagoda and vajra wielded by Bishamonten. These items receive magic from their wielder while observing and recording their actions. They remember their wielders, and those memories determine their true value and nature.
Regalia Items are what Marisa calls items that grant traits to their wielders, for example, the divine sword that bestows rightful sovereignty over a nation to its bearer. These items imbue their wielders with magic while shaping and influencing them. They transmit their own memories to their wielder, which determines their wielder's behavior and way of life.
These classifications are a result of Marisa's long years of research and study as a magic item aficionado.
Dark Flyer: This is the name of Marisa's broom overloaded with her magic item collection. It's like a mobile version of her Kirisame Magic Shop. It houses even more items than meets the eye, thanks to the power of magical storage items. Some items have also formed intricate connections to provide propulsion and various other functions that allow Marisa to control, steer, and monitor her Dark Flyer. Thanks to this, she has maintained really steady progress on her journey across parallel worlds. The Dark Flyer has been imbued with the virtual personality of the shooting star wishing party, and this connection with Kourindou and Rinnosuke Morichika seems to have imparted some of their characteristics onto it.
Magus Express (or MX for short): This is one of the main components of the Dark Flyer. Apparently, it magically provides acceleration to the whole apparatus. It is composed of Alice's and Patchouli's magic books intricately linked together.
Yearning Love Spark: This magical device built around the mini hakkero serves as the Dark Flyer's engine and compass. Once light escapes the Earth, it flies straight at full speed through a vacuum with nothing to distract it.
Attacks
Amulet Missile
The Spread Shot of Marisa Kirisame, who has almost reached the end (a Touhou LW original). She attacks with the tools she's hoarded. Marisa regathers her lost magic items as she continues her journey. She also salvages items that belonged to other people. Marisa seems to have grown pretty accustomed to using Reimu's items. Reimu's ofuda make for pretty good missiles when folded.

Hakurei Ofuda Missile
Prayer Ofuda Missile
Safeguarding Ofuda Missile
Exorcising Ofuda Missile
Shrine Ofuda Missile
Sacred Ofuda Missile
Laser Needle
The Focus Shot of Marisa Kirisame, who has almost reached the end (a Touhou LW original). She attacks with the tools she's hoarded. When Marisa picked up one of Reimu's needles, she realized that getting stabbed by one of these would really hurt. There are treatments that use similar needles to stimulate pressure points, but they originate from Chinese Taoist philosophies, so why would Reimu, a Shinto shrine maiden, use these? Regardless, Marisa decided to use them to shoot lasers.

Pray Upon a Blazing Star
The Last Word of Marisa Kirisame, who has almost reached the end (a Touhou LW original). She reminisces about the shooting star wishing party in this attack. "I wanna use stronger magic," wished the little girl long ago while looking up at the shooting stars. Did her wish come true, or was she merely spellbound by Tenryuu, the heavenly dragon, soaring across the night sky? That girl has now attained true freedom as a shining ray of starlight that disappears almost as soon as it is seen.
