Lilith
Expand
Lilith (a Touhou LW original) refers to the fictitious second moon of Earth. This is an apt temperament for this world's Keine since she is a kaiju.

Keine is strong against Moon Essence because she was designed to combat the Capital. However, since she's a Mark 1 kaiju, combat against the rebels wasn't taken into account. She is weak to Sun Essence due to this inability to maintain perfect order. Kaiju and the youkai they evolved from have always been more of chaos than order, resulting in this world's Keine and Doremy, who is also a Mark 1 kaiju, being far more powerful than the professor predicted they would be.

Keine is strong against Metal Phase because she uses iron to edit history (fire refines metal).

Character Shots

The Spread Shot of Keine Kamishirasawa, the kaiju (a Touhou LW original). She attacks with the world's first VHS cassette model. The act of copying a book or document by hand is called transcribing. Various materials, including paper, wood, leather, and stone, have been used to record text throughout the ages, but no material can withstand the passage of time indefinitely. So transcribing was necessary to preserve information that would otherwise have been lost. Of course, transcribing was also a key means of spreading information before the advent of the printing press.

Nowadays, it may seem like information has been freed from the curse of physical erosion, but, in fact, the core issue remains unresolved.

The Focus Shot of Keine Kamishirasawa, the kaiju (a Touhou LW original). She smashes her head into her opponent. No matter what world Keine is from, her headbutts are always powerful. In our world, Keine uses the threat of her headbutts to keep her students in check, but this Keine doesn't currently seem to work at a school.

A Spell Card of Keine Kamishirasawa, the kaiju (a Touhou LW original). She unravels the mysteries of ancient history. History doesn't get recorded in books, but what's recorded in books is history. In other words, the act of editing history revolves around selecting which records to preserve. And these records aren't limited to those written by humans.

It could be said that everything contains its own piece of history, meaning that history is all around us... or so this world's Keine claims.

A Spell Card of Keine Kamishirasawa, the kaiju (a Touhou LW original). She reveals the history of the future. The future only exists where the light shines from the past. A wise man once said, ''You should consult the past if you want to learn about the future.'' Culture, civilization, and individual intentions are all built upon the foundations of a greater context.

Even if you're determined to work hard tomorrow, that future isn't likely to eventuate unless you have a good track record of working hard in the past... or so says this world's Keine.

The Last Word of Keine Kamishirasawa, the kaiju (a Touhou LW original). She recalls the memory of a prehistoric beast. Do you know the past? Do you know what the world was like before you were born? No matter how hard you might try to learn about it, that past is an unobtainable fantasy. And fantasies disappear when they are no longer believed in. But you needn't give in to despair, for there is one person who can grant your wish. Keine Kamishirasawa can make this fantasy live forever.

Character Ability

Capable of creating history (Mutated)
Expand
The ability of Keine Kamishirasawa, the kaiju (a Touhou LW original). This ability is significantly different from our world's Keine.

The word ''kaiju,'' as used by those from this world, apparently refers to beings that have undergone a specific process of artificial evolution conducted by Yuuka Kazami. Letting nature play its course does not always guarantee salvation. Who can blame or look down on someone who, when faced with a harsh reality, does everything in their power to defy it? Having lost Gensokyo and the humans who sustained them with fear, these ''kaiju'' need somewhere to live and a new source of food.

This world's Keine Kamishirasawa has received several abilities and memories from the Kaiju Professor. In fact, the extraction and implantation of abilities and memories were only made possible thanks to the existence of this kaiju Keine and the kaiju Doremy Sweet. Just like how reality is made out of chemical elements, fantasy is made out of temperament. And as the light shining throughout the real world comes from electricity and magnetism, the darkness pervading the fantasy world comes from illusions and dreams. The kaiju didn't originally look like they do now. They developed along with the Kaiju Theory, with each influencing and improving the other.

The abilities bestowed to this world's Keine include a few unnamed and unknown powers along with Hieda no Akyuu's ability to ''not forget things seen once'' and Kosuzu Motoori's ability to ''read any language.'' This lets Keine perceive the world as a vast history book and edit it as long as certain conditions are met. The kaiju need history as well as a location to create a new Gensokyo because, without history, there is no future. Customs and culture born through civilizations are sparks given off by the fuse of flowing history, memory snippets of the age they represent. The combination of this world's Keine and Doremy's abilities not only enabled the extraction of memories and abilities but also facilitated the conversion of these things into tangible items. The professor couldn't have hoped for a better outcome. The shocking discovery that memories and abilities, thought invisible and untouchable, can actually take tangible forms triggered a cascade of new ideas and possibilities within the professor's mind...
When inflicted by Barrier Status: Burn, inflicts the same Barrier Status to target.
When using Boost, party's Accuracy 1 level UP (1 turn).
When using Graze, party's Yin ATK 1 level UP (1 turn).

Character Analysis

Keine Kamishirarsawa (Kaiju of Rumors and Speculation) was released on April 28th 2023 on Ultra Festival Prayer: 080-03x Hakutaku-Type."  For more up-to-date analysis, be sure to visit the Discord Official Discord Server.

The mutated species are further emerging, and proving to make history, with a certain Kaiju 080-03x looking to record all information to the most precise extent. The Hakutaku-Type Kaiju is determined to compile as much history as possible, and she will do what she can to provide as much intelligence to her professor as she can (and maybe pass this on to some students in future lessons), so there will be no forgetting what steps to take as there is also power in knowledge.

H5 Keine Kamishirasawa is a Support-Class Friend who is in the history books as a provider of handy team buffs such as Spirit Power, Yin ATK, CRIT ATK and Barriers.

As a Supporter

  • Provides teamwide Yin ATK buffs via Skill 2, Last Word Pre-ATK and by Grazing.
  • Multiple sources of teamwide Spirit Power gain via Skills 1 and 3 as well as Second Spell Card Post-ATK.
  • CRIT ATK buffs for allies via Skill 2 and Pre-ATKs for Second Spell Card and Last Word.
  • Grants Barrier restoration to the team via Skill 3, First Spell Card Post-ATK and Last Word Post-ATK. Also helps with aforementioned Grazing buffs.
  • Can grant the team Accuracy buffs when Boosting.
  • Teamwide Yin DEF and Yang DEF buffs on First Spell Card Pre-ATK, with buffs for the former also appearing in Skill 1.
  • Team Evasion buffs via Skill 1.

As an Attacker

  • Has a high Yin ATK Stat at 1900.
  • As well as the above Spirit Power Support, will always gain 0.25 Spirit Power every turn via her 3rd Passive.
  • Selfish buffs in bullet lines scattered across her Shots, Spell Cards and Last Word for Yin ATK, Yin DEF, Yang DEF, CRIT ATK and Agility.
  • Mix of Hard and Slice Scaling slightly appearing in bullet lines.
  • Elemental access is mainly Star, as well as Fire in her Last Word
  • Moderate Killer range, including Human, Moon, Lunar Capital, Religious, Bibliophile and Collector

As a Utility

  • Is able to inflict Burn anomalies on her enemies via Skill 3 and Second Spell Card Pre-ATK.
  • Anomaly break potential includes Burn breaking all enemies on Second Spell Card and Last Word at both 2P, as well as Freeze breaking an enemy via First Spell Card at 3P.
  • Inflicts Burn anomalies if inflicted with this anomaly.
  • Takes 30% less damage from enemies with a connection to the Moon via Passive 1.
  • Has a relatively low cooldown on all Skills, ranging from 3-4 turns of downtime.
  • Debuffs the Yin DEF of all enemies via Last Word Pre-ATK.

Story Card Recommendations

(Card recommendations last updated on December 24, 2023)

Spell Card

With Mansion of Memories able to potentially extend H5 Keine’s Allies’ Yin ATK duration when used at the right time, there will be no issues getting everyone’s Yin ATK buffs maxed. If you need Spirit Power, the beloved The Witch of Scarlet Dreams card’s 2.00 Spirit Power comes a long way, although cards like Myouren Temple Anniversary and Dancers Take The Stage! are great picks for even more teamwide Spirit Power, although the latter provides more power on Star elements. Speaking of which, I’m Alright! does a great job at covering her First Spell Card with Star and Sharp as well as some of her Second Spell Card, while giving herself yet another Barrier. Lastly, if you need longer Accuracy buff durations, Ability Cards? never disappoints in that regard.

Last Word

With a Last Word consisting of Laser, Infinity Garden and Little Sister and Sweets are easily the top 2 cards for pure damage, providing a 50% and 45% boost in Laser, respectively, with the former also having the Yin stats to come out above all else. If you are looking for an elemental boost, Bonds of Blood isn’t a bad choice either, since its 50% boost in Fire bullets will help the first 4 bullets do more damage. For alternative options if these cards aren’t available to you, there is Occult Circle, Winter Holiday and Silver Gale (when it’s available to Max Limit Break).

Character Skill Level Up Recommendations

You could make a case for any of them, but given how important Spirit Power is, we will be starting off with our 3rd Skill, Cassette Ejection, which has 3 very helpful effects being team Spirit Power, teamwide Barriers and Burn anomalies on enemies. Next is the 1st Skill, Frame-By-Frame, doubling down on the benefits of Spirit Power with additional Evasion and Yin DEF for the team. Last, but not least is the 2nd Skill being Fast Forward via teamwide Yin ATK and CRIT ATK buffs.

Character Strengths

Supportive Sensei’s Spirit

Wanting future generations to match her capabilities, H5 Keine is full of tips and tricks for her allies to shine. Providing beneficial teamwide buffs such as Yin ATK, CRIT ATK, Barriers, Spirit Power and Accuracy across Skills, Spell Card effects and even her ability does not go unnoticed. On top of that, these Skills have short cooldowns ranging from 3-4 turns, meaning that she can definitely keep these buffs coming in longer fights, during which you’ll notice how useful it is to gain 0.25 Spirit Power every turn via her 3rd Passive.

Hakutaku Flare

Being able to buff her allies is beneficial, but so is being able to provide Burn anomaly utility! Through her Burn inflictions on all her enemies via Skill 3, Second Spell Card’s Pre-ATK, and even whenever she gets inflicted with this anomaly, this can either be used to take advantage of enemy Yin reduction or for H5 Keine to break these anomalies via her Second Spell Card and Last Word, either being accessible at 2 boosts and will work on all enemies. There is also an additional Freeze anomaly break via her First Spell Card at 3P, working on a specific enemy.

Character Weaknesses

Not Quite in her Element, Lacks a Killer Instinct

The main elements H5 Keine will want to focus on are Star and Fire, the latter especially being the case in her Last Word which has 4 Fire and 2 Star. That said, there are a few other elements scattered around that she isn’t exactly going to be able to take advantage of, such as Water, Wood, Earth, and Metal. Her Killers are also very much quantity over quality, as her overall range doesn’t hit a whole lot of enemies. That said, her CRIT ATK buffs she gives to her allies could be rather helpful should an ally both require them and be able to connect her Killers.
