Yamatanikaze

Expand

Yamatanikaze (a Touhou LW original) refers to winds that change direction from mountain to valley during the day and mountain to valley at night. An apt temperament for Nitori, as a kappa that travels between the river and the mountain. Nitori is endowed with Water Phase, as an aquatic youkai, and Moon Essence, since she collaborates with her peers.

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

Bowl-Lending Spinner

The Spread Shot of Nitori Kawashiro from the world with squabbling gods on the mountain (a Touhou LW original). She shoots normal bullets in all directions. There are old folk tales about kappa or other beings lending people bowls and other tableware to people who pray to a lake or rock. They are collectively called wankashi (bowl-lending) legends. There is a theory that these tales represent trading with foreign lands and hospitality.

Shibaten Sumo

The Focus Shot of Nitori Kawashiro from the world with squabbling gods on the mountain (a Touhou LW original). She shoots light bullets toward her opponents. Shibaten youkai, also called shiba-tengu youkai, are considered to be a type of kappa. They are about the size of human children and appear near water, but they are strong and love sumo wrestling. Why are they called shibaten when shibaten means ''little tengu''...?

Optics: Hydro Camouflage

A Spell Card of Nitori Kawashiro from the world with squabbling gods on the mountain. She shoots bullets while using optical camouflage. Kappa are said to be able to change the color of their skin to match their surroundings. But who could have guessed that they did this through optical camouflage?! Did they make this camouflage out of metamaterials...?

Kappa: Spin the Cephalic Plate

A Spell Card of Nitori Kawashiro from the world with squabbling gods on the mountain. She shoots out bullets in an expanding circular pattern. A trademark of kappa are the dishes on the top of their heads. It is said that a kappa's plate is always filled with water, and when the water runs out, the kappa weakens or even dies. Who could have imagined that she would spin her precious plate and use it as a weapon?!

Wind and Clouds! The Youkai Mountain 3D

The Last Word of Nitori Kawashiro from the world with squabbling gods on the mountain (a Touhou LW original). She utilizes an artificial three-dimensional projection in this attack. It may be a slight exaggeration, but this technology lets the user create another reality. However, it seems to have been appropriated for battles of bullets since it is still in the early stages of development.

This is an example of the kappa's fast technology cloning tactics to combat the mountain god's introduction of new technology. This innovation kicked off the ultimate battle for the fate of the Youkai Mountain.

Character Ability

Capable of manipulating water

Expand

The ability of Nitori Kawashiro from the world with squabbling gods on the mountain. It seems to be fundamentally the same as our version of Nitori's ability. The prolonged disturbance of the mountain gods seems to have caused Nitori to keep fighting for longer than in our world's history.

In Nitori Kawashiro's world, she has joined forces with the youkai and native gods on the mountain to fight against the new gods (Moriya Shrine) who appeared on the Youkai Mountain. The kappa are also temporarily allied with the forces at the foot of the mountain, including Hakurei Shrine until the disturbance is resolved. As the disturbance prolonged, even the youkai and deities who would not usually show their faces began to enter the fray. This caused the war to become more chaotic, continuing the stalemate.

Since the new gods of the mountain have powers related to wind and water, the kappa, who manipulate water, and the tengu, who manipulate wind, were expected to be the key military force against them. However, this also means they have a severe weakness against these gods. Both kappa and tengu were tossed about by the gods' manipulation of wind and rain. The new gods to the mountain seemed to have the advantage, but the kappa and tengu are wise and cunning. Thanks to the intelligence-gathering of the tengu and the kappa's innovative prowess, they quickly copied the new technology brought in by the mountain gods. And this didn't happen just once or twice. Every time the mountain gods brought in new technology, they copied it. Naturally, they used this new technology obtained with reverse engineering to combat the new gods on the mountain. This is how the stalemate was perpetuated.

How the remaining humans at the foot of the mountain intervene should be this situation's deciding factor... But for some reason, Reimu and the others of this world have not been able to exert much influence.

Immune to Barrier Status: Burn and Freeze. When attacked with Burn or Freeze, recovers 5% of own HP.

DMG to effective elements 20% UP.

DMG from resisted elements 20% DOWN.

Character Analysis

Nitori Kawashiro (Faith) cuts an impressive shape as the face of the Kappa youkai who dwell within the waters that flow from Youkai Mountain. As the face of Gensokyo’s commerce, Nitori is what the Hakurei Shrine Maiden wishes she could be; capable of turning a good profit. The Kappa has since made herself at home within the L1 Universe, going beyond her usual role of inventor and merchant to commentate on a variety of events, both serious and whimsical, while occasionally participating in them herself. In battle, her A-Universe form is an upgrade several steps up from her base iteration, but is ultimately content to remain just shy of what her fellow A-Universe peers can achieve.

Farming-wise, Nitori is capable of hitting the levels of Accuracy every Friend needs to comfortably hit their targets. With her first skill, Retired Doll. Coupled with her third skill, Gohou Douji Kin, Nitori can hit that much desired 2P line on Turn 1, unlocking more burst damage from the get go. Her Last Word, Wind and Clouds! The Youkai Mountain 3D also provides her with 5 Levels of Yin ATK up, enough to decimate the unprepared with a surprise barrage.

Nitori also has some tanking built into her kit. Her first spellcard, Optics: Hydro Camouflage improves her survivability by boosting her Yin DEF and EVASION up to 3 levels up. Should she happen to get hit, her Ability, Capable of manipulating water also reduces damage from Elements she’s vulnerable to by 25% (offset by taking 25% more damage from Elements she is resistant to). Her ability also allows her to sit on Freeze and Burn anomalies without suffering from the usual debuffs. In fact, Freeze and Burn anomalies will heal her for 5% for every stack she has!

Speaking of anomalies, Nitori is able to apply up to 3 barries of Freeze to one enemy with her second skill, Wild Shikigami, as well as her Spread and Focus shots on 3P (35% chance). Her second spellcard, Kappa: Spin the Cephalic Plate can then be used to break these at 2P, leaving her target worse for wear, especially when combo-ed with other Freeze applying Friends. Her Last Word also has Burn breaks built into it at 2P, although she will need a Friend (or enemy) capable of applying Burn to begin with.

When it comes to Element breaks, Nitori leans heavily towards Moon and Water, with 2 Moon and 2 Water on her first spellcard (Single Target) and 3 Moon and 3 Water on her second spellcard (AoE). Her LastWord adds Fire into the mix, giving her 2 Water, 2 Moon and 2 Fire in ascending bullet order. She also gets a 0P Water on her Spread Shot, allowing her to chip away at Water weak enemies with ease.

Special mention to Nitori’s range of Killers, which seem uniquely targeted towards murdering the heck out of the Moriya faction. Taking all her bullets into consideration, these include natural Crits on Humans, Gods, Shrine Maidens, Magicians, Incident Resolvers and anyone related to the Moriya Shrine. Is this kappa planning a revolution against those who live higher up on the mountain?

Story Card Recommendations

Spell Card

The Witch of Scarlet Dreams

Photogenic Girls

The Witch of Scarlet Dreams remains an appropriate recommendation, allowing Nitori to access her Freeze breaks at 2P while leaving her enough juice to still hit every line on her Last Word when push comes to shove.

Special mention to Photogenic Girls for providing both P Up as well as Crit EVASION down for a setup balanced towards synergizing with her ability to debuff enemy Crit DEF and EVADE.

Last Word

Occult Circle

Underworld Party Night

Standing Behind You

Nitori is uniquely positioning to take full advantage of Occult Circle’s 35% increase in Missile Bullet damage, with 100% of her Last Word utilizing this bullet type. Alternatively, Underworld Party Night comes in handy should you need to remove a few more levels of Yin and Cri DEF on an opponent. This can be substituted with Standing Behind You for enemies weak to Moon, while still providing bonuses to Nitori’s Crit ATK.

Character Skill Level Up Recommendations

Prioritize Nitori’s first skill, Retired Doll to get her basic consistency going with a 0.7 P Up and an Accuracy boost. Her third skill, Gohou Douji Kin will provide her another 0.7P up allowing her to hit that precious 2P for Turn 1 burst while simultaneously boosting team Yin ATK up by 3 Levels. Complete her kit with her second skill, Wild Shikigami to unlock a single target Freeze Anomaly that also debuffs enemy Crit DEF and EVADE; a perfect one-two that leads into breaking their Freeze Barriers with her second spellcard.

Character Strengths

+ P0 Water Break on Spread Shot
+ Can both set and break Freeze barriers
+ Immune to both Burn and Freeze anomalies, is healed by them

Character Weaknesses

- Triple Element Last Word dampens her potential burst damage
- Minor team support utility
