Junko's Spell Card. She shoots out bullets of pure light. According to a religion from the west, light was the first thing to appear when the world was created. From a scientific perspective, it has been deemed that light came into being the fastest and that this primordial light still defines the outermost reaches of the galaxy.

Junko's Spell Card. She emits lunatic waves in this attack. There are countless stars in space, but there is much more darkness. However, this darkness is not empty space but dark matter and cosmic background radiation. The darkness has ''substance.''

Junko's Last Word (a Touhou LW original). She attacks by calling out a name that should not exist. The act of giving something a name and then calling that name out is the primeval form of magic that has existed even before the dawn of history. Giving something a name makes it distinct, and calling that name out gives the speaker control over it. Once something has been named, it can no longer return to a state where it has no name. However, it seems Junko's purification can break this curse.

Character Ability

Capable of purifying anything
Expand
This is the ability of Junko, a being without a name. This mysterious ability does not simply act as a filter that removes impurities. According to an unknown source, it "creates gods." An example of this ability in action was seen when Clownpiece and the other Hell fairies received a boost in power. It is quite astounding that this ability could increase the strength (lunacy?) of the fairies to such an extent that they become beings of pure lifeforce. Fairies are usually seen as embodiments of nature, but this purification transforms them into a state incredibly close to unrestrained lifeforce. This lifeforce, also referred to as impurity by the Lunarians, is what threatened the Lunar Capital. This purification is thought to unlock the true nature and primeval power of everything that is affected by it. Conversely, a name is what contains this wild power. This is why Junko is a nameless being. Gods are a perfect example of this, as their original power becomes limited when they are given a detailed name. In some cases, their power can even change when their name is changed. This concept is connected to kotodama (the belief that souls dwell in language), incantations that make use of words, and the fact that human culture is predominantly built and tied together with language. Within the limits of human understanding, there are always concepts that have not been or cannot be put into words. These are sometimes called mysteries or occult phenomena and do not only exist in the far reaches of space, but also within the human subconscious.
When using Boost, own CRIT Accuracy 1 level UP (1 turn).
DMG to resisted elements 25% UP.

Character Analysis

Junko was released on February 28th, 2022 in Festival: Purity & Pandemonium.

Junko is a individual consumed by rage and loss. Her son was murdered when the husband of her eternal enemy, Chang’e, shot down the ten suns of legend. After that, she held a grudge against Chang’e and the lunarians – said grudge has been purified over the years, and now she simply hates them for the sake of hating them. But it’s no longer all-consuming, leaving her with plenty of free time, and so she’ll lend you her power as an E-Tier Friend.

Unfortunately, farming is typically out of the question for Junko – she simply requires too much time to get going. Needing Spirit Power, Accuracy, and sometimes even ATK UP, you’ll want to look elsewhere for an event stage farmer.

For harder fights, Junko’s strengths are in the 0P Solo targeting Water Break on her Spread Shot, and the damage which her Solo targeting Last Word is capable of outputting if given two or three turns, which is decent but nothing spectacular. Unfortunately she needs a lot of setup time to accomplish this and the rest of her kit is unimpressive.

Overall, Junko’s kit is simple, and not altogether that strong, but she can put in some work if you need a Solo targeting nuke and don’t care if it takes a few turns, or if you need spammable Water Breaks.

Story Card Recommendations

Spell Card

Since Junko’s breaks are extremely lacking, there’s no real point in giving her any Spirit Power UP, as she can build it by simply using her first Spell Card. As such, focus on giving her at least one source of Accuracy UP to use before her Last Word, and otherwise bolster her CRIT and Yang ATK, as she already gives herself sufficient Yin ATK.

Last Word

Due to the ATK UP and Ofuda Power UP it provides, A Curious Festival is far and away Junko’s best option. Otherwise, look to Accuracy UP (if not giving her Accuracy on her Spell cards), Yang ATK UP, or Yin ATK UP.

Character Skill Level Up Recommendations

Illusory Black Hair provides Junko the greatest damage benefit, and should be leveled first. Afterwards, Purification should be leveled. Finally, Nine-Tailed Fox Totem provides Junko with no real benefit, and can be saved for when you have no other units to train, or for when she gets a Fantasy Rebirth.

Character Strengths

+Decently powerful Solo targeting Last Word if given time to setup
+P0 Solo targeting Water Breaks on a Basic Shot

Character Weaknesses

-Requires setup to do any damage at all
-Lackluster Breaks overall
-No team support
-Mixed damage makes her hard to support
