I'm Marisa Kirisame. And this is my buddy, Yukkuri Marisa. [Yuyuyu!] She said, "Nice to meet ya."
Introduction
Shine, Yu-Cube! C'mon, Yu-Marisa! Buddy Connect! [Yuyuyuyu!] Let's finish this! Buddy Lunatic Sungra―huh? We're suddenly somewhere else. Is this... Hakurei Shrine Town? Yu-Marisa... Good, you're OK. [Yuyuuu!] Now, let's try to figure out what's going on. Hey, you. My name's Marisa Kirisame. I'm an ordinary BBer you could find anywhere. And this here's my buddy, Yukkuri Marisa. [Yuyuuu?] ...Hm? Do you not have a yukkuri with you?! Unbelievable... You're such an interesting kid!
Purple Heart
To think you'd be fine without a yukkuri...
Blue Heart
I've been with this little one since I was born.
Green Heart
Me and Yu-Marisa have been on so many adventures together. We're inseparable.
Orange Heart
Buddy Connect is a mysterious bond that connects a BBer with their yukkuri buddy. It's like an invisible thread. We can also use the power of this bond to form bonds with wild yukkuris.
Pink Heart
I used to live quietly in Forest of Magic Town. But I've always dreamed of becoming the best BBer in the world, so nowadays, I leave the forest to battle all over Gensokyo. One day, I'll definitely become number one.
Autumn
Let's go to Human Village City festival with Reimu and her buddy. [Yuyuyu!] Yu-Marisa's also looking forward to seeing what battles we'll have.
Login
I see. So you guys call Yu-Cubes Seal Crystals. I've heard that Yu-Cubes are the physical manifestations of bonds, but that never felt quite right to me. I bet they're hiding an even bigger secret.
Enhancement
[Yuyuyu!] Nice firepower, Yu-Marisa.
Return
[Yuyuyu!] Yeah, it was a good battle, huh?
Home 1
Yukkuris can only really say "yukkuri." But we've never had any trouble understanding each other. Yeah, it's kinda strange.
Home 2
Yu-Marisa's short for Yukkuri Marisa. Just like me, she never gives up. I'm proud to call her my buddy.
Home 3
I'm originally from Human Village City. I still visit pretty often. That's why I'm so fashionable... Though I keep it a secret from my parents.
Reaction 1
Before becoming a BBer, I just had fun with normal battles.
Reaction 2
You look tired. Use Yu-Marisa as a pillow. [Yuyuyu!]
Reaction 3
Oh, you fell asleep on my lap. *pats head*
Task
[Yuyu.] She says you should hand off the tasks to Yu-Alice or Yu-Patchouli.
Task Complete
[Yu-yuuu.] She says as a reward for completing your task, she'll sit on your head.
Mail
There's a report in the mailbox.
Errand Finished
[Yuyuyu!] Sounds like someone's back.
Start of Battle
Battles and yukkuris... [Yukkuri!] ...are all about power!
Mid-Wave
[Yuyu-yuuu, yuyu-yuuuu.]
Victory
Now we've got a story to share with Enoko and Naruko. [Yukkuri!] Yeah, we did good!

[Yuyu...] Losing sucks, huh? Next time, we'll win for sure!

Character Information
Temperament: Kirisame & Ame
Kirisame & Ame (a Touhou LW original) are two terms that both refer to rain. This is the perfect temperament for Marisa and her yukkuri buddy, Yukkuri Marisa.
"We're gonna be YBB Masters and the title for the strongest firepower is gonna be ours!" (Strong against Star Essence.)
"No trial's too tough for us to overcome, and no buddy's too strong for us to beat!" (Strong against Earth Phase.)
"We're gonna travel the world and meet all kinds of yukkuris. A hundred? Nah, every single one!" (Strong against Metal Phase.)
"Right, Yu-Marisa? We're the best buddies ever." (Strong against Fire Phase.)
"Only thing is... neither of us can stand the cold." (Weak against Water Phase.)
Ability/Backstory: Capable of using magic and taking it easy
The ability of Marisa Kirisame and her buddy, Yukkuri Marisa, from the world of Yukkuri Bullet Battles (a Touhou LW original). Their abilities have combined to form this singular buddy ability.
It's customary for children to take the YBB license exam once they're old enough. Without a license, nobody is allowed to compete in YBBs, not even with the yukkuri buddy they were born with. That said, no license is needed for a yukkuri that simply helps out around the house or lives as part of the family. Most kids who earn their license spend their time battling their friends for fun. A few BBers, however, set out on journeys to become YBB Masters, and there's plenty of government support in place to help them along the way.
There's a whole industry built around BBers, making their journeys much easier. Even so, the road to becoming a YBB Master is brutal, and most end up dropping out and heading back home. YBBs are hugely popular as a sport, and professional league matches are always airing on TV. Broadcasts of battles for the title of YBB Master are especially popular, regularly ranking among the most-watched broadcasts of the year.
This Marisa grew up in Human Village City, but the second she was licensed, she took off for Forest of Magic Town to train on her own terms. Some say she ran away after getting scolded for taking the exam without her parents' permission, but nobody knows the full story. Apparently, there were tears involved. She and Yu-Marisa are a match made in heaven. Her rival is Reimu from Hakurei Shrine Town, and they always end up battling whenever they cross paths on their travels. Their win-loss record is currently tied. Odds are, they'll face each other in the final match for the title of YBB Master.
Yukkuri Marisa
Type: Magician yukkuri
Size: Regular yukkuri size
Yukkuri Marisa lives with Marisa in the Forest of Magic. She loves mushrooms and is a pro at foraging for them. Depending on what kind of mushroom she eats, her magic attacks turn out differently.
Attacks
Comet Missile
The Spread Shot of Marisa Kirisame and her buddy, Yukkuri Marisa, from the world of Yukkuri Bullet Battles (a Touhou LW original). She unleashes a yukkuri attack.
Forest of Magic Town is a creepy place that even veteran BBers avoid. People say it stays pitch-dark there even at noon in the middle of summer, and someone's always swearing they saw a mushroom move. Stories like that are a dime a dozen. The wild yukkuris there are so strong that it's not unusual for BBers to be beaten by them before they ever face another BBer.
Despite all that, the forest is home to a few powerhouse BBers, nicknamed "Puppeteer," "Jizou," and "Yamainu," who live there as if it were any other town. Marisa and Yu-Marisa live in that same forest, and it's made them pretty tough.

Magical Laser
The Focus Shot of Marisa Kirisame and her buddy, Yukkuri Marisa, from the world of Yukkuri Bullet Battles (a Touhou LW original). She unleashes a yukkuri attack.
After years of grueling training and a relentless study of yukkuri techniques, Yukkuri Marisa, aka Yu-Marisa, has developed a one-of-a-kind move. It packs so much firepower that people call it magic, and it's hard to believe a yukkuri could pull it off. She and Marisa shine in countless ways, just like shooting stars.

Marisa and Yu-Marisa were never ones to stay put. First, they left Human Village City behind, and now they've outgrown Forest of Magic Town too. Their biggest rivals are none other than Reimu and her buddy, and on paper, the two teams are evenly matched. At least, that's what their match results say. But Reimu always looks so calm and unbothered, and it gets under Marisa's skin. She just can't figure out how Reimu got so strong.

Reimu doesn't seem to put nearly as much effort into training and research as Marisa does. Just the other day, she was sitting in a cafe, sipping a latte and absentmindedly watching the town. Meanwhile, Marisa was running around like mad trying to snag a rare item from the Kourin Shop.
"Man, I'm jealous..." Marisa grumbled to herself. She was sure Reimu had some kind of secret.

Buddy Lunatic Sungrazer
The Last Word of Marisa Kirisame and her buddy, Yukkuri Marisa, from the world of Yukkuri Bullet Battles (a Touhou LW original). Her yukkuri buddy transforms into their Lunatic Buddy form.
If Marisa and Yu-Marisa like what they see, they'll copy it shamelessly, and that's their greatest strength. They take what they've copied, put their own spin on it, and keep at it until it becomes a move that's entirely their own. That's how they taught themselves Lunatic Buddy, too. It doesn't bother them one bit if they look clumsy or get laughed at along the way.
Apparently, a certain library witch once said that's the one thing about them worth praising. Anyone who calls themselves a magician seems to get it, at least to some degree.
Reimu and her buddy never hide their techniques either. They show them off freely, as if daring anyone to try copying them. But according to Marisa, Reimu's moves are the hardest of all to recreate. Not that they're about to throw in the towel.
