Koubou
Expand
Koubou (a Touhou LW original) refers to phenomena such as crepuscular rays, light pillars, subsun, comet tails, and other long, thin streaks of light in the sky. This is an apt temperament for Nazrin, who makes use of Bishamonten's influence to get things done. Nazrin is endowed with Water Phase, from her nature as a mouse, and Sun Essence, as an observer.

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

Character Shots

Nazrin's Spread Shot (a Touhou LW original). In this attack, she searches and shoots with the rods in her hands. There's a long history of dowsing with a rod, and it is believed that it originated from the custom of using a wooden staff for divine guidance. When lost at a crossroads, you can place a stick upright on the ground and then go in the direction it falls.

Nazrin's Focus Shot (a Touhou LW original). In this attack, she searches and shoots with her pendulum. Dowsing with a pendulum is said to use a sheet or a board similar to an Ouija board. However, there is another method that only uses the pendulum's movement to determine which decisions are right or wrong. It is dangerous to swing a pendulum around, so don't imitate her. (Nazrin has special training.)

Nazrin's Spell Card. In this attack, she wildly waves her two dowsing rods. When the rods react violently, you know that the thing you are looking for is close by. This method was once used to detect mineral veins and water sources, but there was a time when some believed dowsing could also be used to detect explosives. (Whether this is truly effective or not is unknown.)

Nazrin's Spell Card. In this attack, she shoots bullets from her pendulums. Pendulums are widely known not only for dowsing but also for fortune-telling and hypnosis. They are probably treasured as mysterious and mystical tools because they are easy to use and move in many different ways. Also, the changes in movement are easily identified. Pendulums are also used in wall clocks and seismometers... does that make them oracle machines?

Nazrin's Last Word (a Touhou LW original). In this attack, she uses an enormous Jeweled Pagoda that was brought to her from somewhere. In the end, Nazrin's most reliable method to find things is to use countless numbers of mice. Mice are often trapped in mazes or chased by cats in the outside world. If any of Nazrin's youkai mice had such experiences in the outside world, they would be on another level when searching for the best route to take. If not, they're sure to eventually find what they're looking for as long as they collect everything...! Also, the huge pagoda might belong to Prabhutaratna?

Character Ability

Capable of finding sought-for items
Expand
The ability of Nazrin as a dowser. It is said that she used this ability to find Shou Toramaru's Jeweled Pagoda during a previous incident... But it is doubtful how accurate her dowsing is. Nazrin brings small youkai mice with her and carries dowsing rods and pendulums. Japanese mythology also describes mice as animals that are skilled at searching. There is evidence that similarly shaped dowsing items to the ones that Nazrin carries were used in the past. However, it is not clear how accurate they were at detecting things. Considering that dowsing is not done much anymore in the outside world, maybe they weren't very effective...? In the end, using many mice may be the most reliable method of finding things. Looking for things seems simple, but it isn't easy. Some even hire a detective to find lost items in the outside world. In computer engineering, the basis of sorting and searching is detection. It is such an incredibly deep field that you could spend your whole life studying it. Nazrin's somewhat logical and dour personality fits her job of searching for things. This also suits Nazrin's work as an observer. Instead of gazing aimlessly, she continues to observe carefully and efficiently. It's a job that can only be done by someone as wise as Nazrin.

Character Analysis

Nazrin was released on May 27th, 2022 in "Festival Prayer: Search for the Unknown." For more up-to-date analysis, be sure to visit the Discord Official Discord Server.

Nazrin is a mouse Youkai who leads a large band of mice, which she commands deftly to find lost items or just pick up generally interesting things. She is a straightforward talker with a sizable ego, yet a bit timid if truly scared or confronted. Her ability, expert dowsing, is often used for her own gain or for the gain of her fellow Buddhists at Myouren Temple, but will help others find lost items in some circumstances. In the events of Touhou 12: Unidentified Fantastic Object, Nazrin is tasked by Shou Toramaru to find the Pagoda of Bishamonten, as it was needed to revive Byakuren Hijiri, and she was successful. She spends most of her time searching for various treasures and looking after Shou.

Nazrin's Spread Shot, Dowsing Rods, is impressively good, and would still be even if she was a Festival Friend; it has Water, Slicing scaling AND self speed UP (100%) at 0P, and incredibly efficient Spirit P generation on hit, not to mention that it has Yang ATK UP (100%) at 1P and 1 more Water and 1 Metal bullet line at 2P. Her Focus Shot, Dowsing Pendulum, is less impressive, being traitless at 0P, although it does have some more Slicing and sure-hit, and gains 1 Metal at 1P, 1 Water at 2P, and 1 more Metal at 3P.

Nazrin is a Support type Friend, and her Spell Cards make it very evident. Her Spell Card 1, Rod Sign: Busy Rod, is AoE, and provides the party with 0.70 Spirit P UP, which is already an excellent effect; but besides that, it's got a sizable bit of Slicing scaling, surprisingly good Killers and 2 Water and 2 Metal bullet lines. Her Spell Card 2, Vision Sign: Nazrin Pendulum, is fully elemental, with 4 Water and 2 Metal bullet lines, more Slicing, about the same Killers as Spell Card 1, and 2 different self Yang DEF UP (100%) at 1P and 2P respectively. The Pre-Atk effect provides the party with ACC 2.5 levels UP (2T) and self Evasion 2.5 levels UP (3T). Then, finally, her Last Word, Harvest of the Mice,  is also fully elemental, with 4 Metal and 2 Water bullet lines, even more Slicing, with even a little bit of Hard scaling as well, synergizing with the Yang DEF UP in her Spell Card 2. Her Last Word also notably has sure-hit on lines 1 and 2, which is rare for a Last Word; not having to worry about accuracy is very helpful, especially since those 2 lines are where most of the Slicing scaling are.

Skills tend to be the most impressive part of Support type Friends, and Nazrin is no exception. So much party-wide boosting with a leaning towards Yang that she can be easily slotted into a lot of teams. Her Skill 1, Bishamonten Backup, provides self Spirit P 0.70 UP and party's Speed 3 levels UP (2T), which synergizes well with her own Slicing scalings as well as potentially with teammates. Her Skill 2, Assistant Mouse, provides party wide ACC 3 levels UP (2T) as well as Quick to self, which is good, because Nazrin often wants to go first to apply her teammates with her teamwide Pre-Atk buffs from her Spell Cards so that the teammates can benefit from them by moving afterward. Her Skill 3, Rarity Appraisal, is truly exceptional; it provides party wide Spirit P 0.70 UP as well as party wide Yang ATK 2 levels UP (2T). Party wide Spirit P UP is such an exceptional and rare skill that few have, let alone 0.70P at once; coupled with her Spell Card 1, which also does the same thing, it's shockingly easy to get the whole team to 3+ P in 1 or 2 turns.

Story Card Recommendations

Spell Card

Myouren Temple Anniversary is such a crazy good card, it's hard to not recommend. Nazrin is already boosting the party's Spirit P by a ton; might as well add a ton more! With just one of them on her Spell Card 1, Nazrin can easily bring the entire team above 3.00 Spirit P on turn 1: a feat accomplishable by very few Friends, as well as one that is useful support to almost all Friends.

Last Word

Along with its incredible support capabilities, Myouren Temple Anniversary simply checks all of the boxes on Nazrin's Last Word, applying enemy Yang DEF down and Metal bullet power UP, both which are incredibly ideal for it. I suppose she is on the picture for a reason. Otherwise, she appreciates generically good boosts to her Yang ATK, as many do.

Character Skill Level Up Recommendations

Nazrin's Skills are really great all around, but Skill 3 is undoubtedly the most valuable one to level first. Party wide Spirit P UP is just so universally useful, not to mention the party wide Yang ATK too. Skill 1 should probably be second due to the self Spirit P UP, allowing Nazrin to reach a large amount of Spirit P on turn 1, plus the impressively large Speed support. Skill 2 is still great because ACC is needed by just about everyone, but it can wait compared to Skills 3 and 1.

Character Strengths

+Tons of stat and Spirit P buffs across all Spell Cards and Skills
+Generally great access to Metal and Water breaks
+Surprisingly good Killer bullets
+ Lots of Slice scaling

Character Weaknesses

- Low Base Yang DEF
- Slice scaling still isn't the best
