Ryuuseigun

Expand

Ryuuseigun (a Touhou LW original) refers to a meteor shower, a phenomenon that occurs when a group of meteors seems to shoot out from one point in the sky. It is a perfect temperament for Star Sapphire, the fairy of starlight. Star Sapphire is endowed with Wood Phase, from her homey disposition, and Star Essence, from her unbounded nature that goes hand in hand with being a fairy.

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 diverse and uncooperative Star Essence resists the cooperative and indecisive Moon Essence, but it is weak to the charming and arrogant Sun Essence.

Cosmic Ray

Star Sapphire's Spread Shot (a Touhou LW original). Light rains down from the night sky in this bullet hell attack. When Star Sapphire heard that space is full of light that cannot be seen, she came up with this shot, because according to her, ''Light should always be seen!''

Meteor Cannon

Star Sapphire's Focus Shot (a Touhou LW original). She shoots out bullets that look like giant clouds of stardust―at this size, they are practically meteorites. It would really hurt if this hit your head!

Star Sign: Twinkle Sapphire

Star Sapphire's Spell Card. She shoots out stardust that glitters like jewels and then makes it explode. The explosion is as beautiful as a twinkling star, but it packs quite a punch if it hits you.

Hypernova

Star Sapphire's Last Word (a Touhou LW original). She borrows the power of starlight to create a huge explosion. A supernova is a bright and powerful stellar explosion, and the more extreme version of that is the hypernova. It represents a star's death, but at the same time, it is also the birth of a new star. Come to think of it, fairies are said to be the incarnation of life, but in another country, they are also said to be the souls of the dead... The truth is a mystery.

Character Ability

Capable of detecting moving things

Expand

Star Sapphire's ability might not seem like it would be very useful in battle, but you would be surprised. Her ability allows her to detect where any living thing is, so she immediately notices if anyone comes by while she is setting up a prank. You could call her a living radar. Since this allows her to act without being noticed, if you combine the abilities of the Three Fairies of Light, they could probably pull off the perfect crime. However, her ability does not work on a certain somebody with the ability to manipulate waves, so she cannot detect her presence. Perhaps the presence Star detects is some kind of wave inherent to each living thing...

When using Boost, own Yang ATK 1 level UP (1 turn).

Character Analysis

Star Sapphire was released on May 11th, 2021 as part of the starting roster. For more up-to-date analysis, be sure to visit the Official Discord Server.

Star Sapphire is a member of the “Three Fairies of Light,” cooperating with Sunny Milk and Luna Child to perform pranks all over Gensokyo. While fairies are seen as weak creatures, Star Sapphire calls upon the power of the always-present stars to succeed in any mischief she is a part of. Her ability to detect movement surrounding her does not initially sound strong, but she can easily notice when others are nearby and make an early escape when needed. She is usually more reserved than her partners in crime and would rather avoid fights if possible.

Star Sapphire isn’t that incredible when it comes to farming, as her Last Word, Hypernova, is a Solo-target attack with some Star bullets. She can buff her Accuracy by 3 levels with her third skill, Spy Satellite, for a more consistent strike, but that’s about it for raw power.

More abilities stand out when considering Star Sapphire in challenging quests. Her second spell card, Starlight: Star Laser, increases the entire party’s Accuracy by 2 or 3 levels. Combined with Spy Satellite and her first spell card, Star Sign: Twinkle Sapphire, she can grant herself 8 (to 10, if you are lucky) levels of Accuracy UP! Her attacks are very likely to connect, and even if they aren’t the most powerful, the access to Star breaks on her spell cards are still useful. Star Sign: Twinkle Sapphire can provide 2 Star breaks at 2 Spirit Power and Starlight: Star Laser hits every opponent with a Star break, which is helpful for an uncommon element like Star.

Star Sapphire doesn’t give much beyond that, with her other skills giving a CRIT Accuracy buff to the party or an offensive debuff to one target. Still, her small access to Star breaks can definity make a difference along with her other supporting abilities. She won’t be the one to do all of the fighting, but that doesn’t mean she won’t put in a good effort.

Story Card Recommendations

(Card recommendations last updated on October 31, 2022)

Spell Card

The Witch of Scarlet Dreams

Unlike the two Fairies of Light, Star has little to no problem when it comes to accuracy issues, thus, it is recommended to give her Spirit Power UP cards instead in order to access her Star elemental breaks easily

Last Word

Ordinary Magician

Unknown Barrier Team

Ordinary Magician gives Star Sapphire a buff to her YANG ATK, something that she finds difficulty increasing otherwise. On the other hand, she can also use Unknown Barrier Team as, just like Luna Child, all her LW bullet lines consist of Energy bullets.

Character Skill Level Up Recommendations

Getting Star Sapphire’s third skill, Spy Satellite, to Level 9 or 10 is important to get the maximum 3 levels of Accuracy UP and a cooldown of 4 instead of 5 respectively. Her first skill, Observing Presences, can be leveled up next to provide a party-wide 3 levels of CRIT Accuracy UP to assist in the Critical damage of other Friends. The last skill would be the second one, Fantasy Planetaria, due to only increasing the mediocre Yin and Yang ATK debuff from 1 to 2 levels DOWN.
