Element Type Chart

Youkaten

Expand

Youkaten (a Touhou LW original) refers to early spring when various flowers bloom and the weather is usually overcast. This is a fitting temperament for Sakuya, who must reclaim spring for the Scarlet Devil Mansion. Sakuya is endowed with Metal Phase, due to her skills with knives, and with Moon Essence, as a vampire's servant.

The cold and silent Metal Phase resists Earth Phase, because earth bears metal, but it is weak to Fire Phase, because fire refines metal.

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

Character Shots

Jack the Ludo Bile (Cherry Blossom)

The Spread Shot of Sakuya Izayoi from the world with a never-ending winter. In true magician fashion, she scatters knives over a wide area. Ludo Bile refers to the belladonna plant, whose name means ''beautiful lady.'' It's known for its black-colored berries that are sweet yet toxic. The name of this attack seems to suggest that Sakuya's mysterious past hides some dark secrets.

Jack the Ripper (Cherry Blossom)

The Focus Shot of Sakuya Izayoi from the world with a never-ending winter. In true magician fashion, she throws homing knives in this attack. Jack the Ripper is the name ascribed to the unidentified villain who spread terror across the fog-covered streets of London. The case was never solved, leading to many theories and fantasies about the true nature of the crimes and the culprit. It goes without saying that there is no known connection between Jack the Ripper and Sakuya.

Illusion Sign: Indiscriminate

A Spell Card of Sakuya Izayoi from the world with a never-ending winter. She throws extremely large knives all around her. It feels especially bad to be on the receiving end of an attack that's indiscriminate. As a maid, Sakuya is really good at taking out the trash. This is perhaps one of the reasons why Remilia, her vampire mistress, values her service so highly.

Illusion Sign: Killer Doll

A Spell Card of Sakuya Izayoi from the world with a never-ending winter. She snipes her enemies with extremely large knives. No one knows why Sakuya gave this name to her Spell Card, but it's just as menacing as the last. What is certain, however, is that Sakuya is often considered to be like a puppet in the way she obeys her mistress's orders without question. In fact, Sakuya has also been likened to a dog by some people... and not in a good way.

Concession Murderer

The Last Word of Sakuya Izayoi from the world with a never-ending winter (a Touhou LW original). She throws knives imbued with winter temperament. Actions performed within a closed-off world leave no perceptible trace to those outside it. Sakuya holds a certain amount of professional respect for the one who cleanly prolonged this incident while maintaining their anonymity. As somewhat the opposite of a detective, she feels like she's placed in the perfect position to find the true mastermind. No one else even comes close. With thoughts of her mistress shivering within the freezing Scarlet Devil Mansion ever on her mind, Sakuya once more sets out to face Yuyuko at Hakugyokurou.

Character Ability

Mainly capable of manipulating time

Expand

The ability of Sakuya Izayoi from the world with a never-ending winter (a Touhou LW original). It is essentially the same as our version of Sakuya's ability. However, despite having this ability, this world's Sakuya is yet to resolve the Spring Snow Incident.

The Scarlet Devil Mansion has shut itself off from the world in a vain attempt to escape the cold. Their stocks of fuel are running out, and they can barely procure enough food... Even if Sakuya braved the journey to the Human Village, she'd find them in no better shape. Silence has come over Gensokyo... accompanied by the increasingly pervading stench of death.

The incessant snowy weather reminds Sakuya of a city where it's always cloudy. Perhaps this incident can't be resolved by mindlessly retrying over and over again. The spring might not return until someone figures out what caused the incident to last so long. This not-so-ordinary maid continued to think about how out of the ordinary this incident was...

Sakuya is a mysterious maid who, despite being human, lives in the Scarlet Devil Mansion. Perhaps she holds a secret that will let her unravel the mysteries of this incident.

Sakuya's Illusion Sign loadout includes knife-themed bombs and two more knife attacks―one that covers a wide area and one that homes in on her targets. Her plan was to skillfully switch between the two depending on whether she needed to deal with multiple enemies or snipe single targets. However, she later realized that this strategy falters against fast-moving opponents. There's only one way to see if another loadout would be more effective, and that's to try it for real. Then again, perhaps using the attacks she's used to is still her best bet...

For every layer of Barrier Status: Freeze or Paralyze, Agility, Accuracy, and Evasion 1 level UP.

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

When using Graze, party's Agility 1 level UP (1 turn).

Character Analysis

Sakuya Izayoi (Cherry Blossom: Illusion) was released on June 16th 2023 in "Festival Prayer: Perfect and Elegant Maids." For more up-to-date analysis, be sure to visit the Official Discord Server.

Perfection and elegance in the form of a human being whose mastery and dexterity when it comes to her knives and magic is second to none. Even if she doesn’t show it, the Spring Snow Incident has taken a toll on her, due to the resources it has depleted. It would appear that she is conserving her precious resources while making sure to dress accordingly for the chilling winter. Determined to put a certain rotting princess in her place as one of the 3 heroines, she has maid her mark as an incident resolver, wrapping up warm in a red scarf and bringing a mop to clean house, Sakuya Izayoi is here and she won’t be taking any prisoners, as time is of the essence!

A7A Sakuya Izayoi is a Speed-Class Friend who perfectly provides priority for the team, grants swift Agility, Yang ATK and Accuracy for the team, keeps her Spirit Power up and enjoys her Metal breaks.

As an Attacker / Supporter

Lots of ways to grant Spirit Power: Skill 3, Spell Card 1, Spell Card 2 and Last Word. Her Last Word also grants 1.00 Spirit Power to the team.
Party Yang ATK buffs via Skill 3, with selfish Yang ATK buffs via Boosting and Last Word.
Yang DEF debuffs on all enemies via Spell Card 1 and bullet lines from her Focus Shot and Last Word.
Wide Killer range includes Fairy, Youkai, Soul, Winter, Magician, Poltergeist, Ghost and Half-Human Half-Phantom.
Uses Slice Scaling to boost her damage even more. Also can gain Agility on top of it, with some of the buffs being provided for the team as well.
Accuracy buffs for the team via Skill 2.

As a Utility

Uses Freeze and Paralyze anomalies to her advantage. Boosts her own Agility, Accuracy and Evasion for any layers inflicted on her, such as with her 0P Bullet Lines on Spell Cards.
Enemies are also subjected to Freeze and Paralyze anomalies: Freeze inflicted via Skill 2, and broken via Last Word at 3P. As for Paralyze, as well as 3P on her Last Word, these can be both inflicted and broken via Spell Card 2, also requiring 3P for the breaks.
Extensive Precise bullets on Focus Shot and Spell Card 1. If an enemy’s Agility is boosted, the chances of these bullets landing a CRIT will increase.
Focus Shot has a 100% chance to Stun an enemy.
Not only does she grant Quick to herself via Skill 1, she does it for the whole party via Skill 3. Can go hand in hand with her Stun utility above.
Low cooldowns on Skills (3-4 Turns), making it possible to keep taking advantage of some of the above utility.
Takes 35% less damage from Slash Bullets.

Story Card Recommendations

(Card recommendations last updated on June 16, 2023)

Spell Card

Worlds in Hand

Myouren Temple Anniversary

Mysterious Sword Master

A7A Sakuya is desperately lacking CRIT ATK buffs so that will be an important thing to account for. Spirit Power buffs are helpful, but she gets so much of it already that it’s not as important as it would be for the average unit, allowing team-wide Spirit Power options too. Yang ATK options are also good options too, but if all of the above is covered, Slash is the forte of many Sakuya variants with the A7A variant being no exception (and also benefiting from Metal in the process)

CRIT ATK UP: Divine Spirit Tajikarao, New Year’s Shrine Visit VI, Miracle Mallet, Worlds in Hand, Bloody Order, Standing Behind You

Team Spirit Power UP: Myouren Temple Anniversary, Divine Spirit Tajikarao, Dancers Take the Stage, Utopia Tea Time

Spirit Power UP: The Witch of Scarlet Dreams, Our Dream, Dancer in the Puddle, Mountain of Faith, Youkai Mountain Anniversary, Taking a Breather in Spring, Post-Training Kinako Milk

Yang ATK UP: Ordinary Magician, Members of the Yakumo Family, Kasen’s Senkai, How Irrational…

Slash Bullet Power UP: Mysterious Sword Master, The Moon and Izayoi, Disillusion

Last Word

Disillusion

The Moon and Izayoi

Mysterious Sword Master

Another Sakuya, another Slash Last Word. And with a clear focus on Metal, we’re actually going to be putting Disillusion on top, due to that 95% boost in 4 of her bullet lines that happen to be Metal (50% Metal, 45% Slash). If that option isn’t available to you, there are also 2 great 50% Slash Bullet Boost options, The Moon and Izayoi and Mysterious Sword Master. The former has more favorable Stats whereas the latter also has a slight Accuracy buff. The 3 options above are definitely the way to go here.

Character Skill Level Up Recommendations

To help A7A Sakuya get to 2P right off the bat, let’s go with her third Skill, Supernatural Border. 0.50 more Spirit Power as well as additional Yang ATK for the team as well as its cooldown reduced by one third is very helpful. Next up will be Winter Maid Uniform. This one helps the team with additional Agility and Accuracy. Finally is Scarlet Mop, taking it from a cooldown rate of 5 Turns to 3 Turns, with Freeze anomalies onto her enemies and Evasion buffs for the team.

Character Strengths

Sakuya’s Spirit

Like some Sakuya variants that came before, A7A Sakuya knows how to keep her Spirit Power up, and this is demonstrated by using her Skill 3 and all her Spell Cards. Her Last Word takes it a step further, also providing 1.00 Spirit Power to the team after it is done. This might be the only way to naturally support via Spirit Power, but her ways of aiding her allies don’t end there.

Maid to Thrive

Whether her team benefits from her buffs or not, A7A Sakuya is also able to do what it takes to make sure her attacks connect. Across her Skills, her team buffs include Yang ATK, Agility, Accuracy and she has a Spell Card that will decrease the Yang DEF of all enemies despite being a Spell Card. for herself though, she can further buff her Yang ATK extensively when Boosting, with her aforementioned Spirit Power helping a lot. Anyone weak to Metal elements will especially feel the pain A7A Sakuya can potentially inflict upon them.

Conjurer of Many Tricks

A7A Sakuya doesn’t just deal damage, as her Skills are actually interesting. Their combination of fairly low cooldowns (3 Turns for Skills 1 and 2, 4 Turns for Skill 3), and being able to use Skill 3 to allow her whole team to go first in their priority bracket. This can also be fun to mess around with, even for whatever allies would also be granted this, but for A7A Sakuya specifically, she can also guarantee a Stun on an enemy via Focus Shot, making for a stunning display of gimmicks to work with, to say the least.

Character Weaknesses

CRIT ATK Hasn’t Maid an Appearance

The main thing holding A7A Sakuya back is her nonexistent CRIT ATK buffs, which as a unit with a great Killer range (most notably Youkai), this is an unfortunate flaw in her kit. It’s not something external support can’t fix, but natural CRIT ATK would have helped A7A Sakuya a lot if it was there.

Let Sakuya Have a Break…

Another thing A7A Sakuya falls short on is her breaking in general. For elements, her Metal breaks are not bad by any means, however, the Moon and Water breaks scattered in her kit are very hard to take advantage of. As for anomalies, her Freeze and Paralyze anomaly utility allows her to benefit from Agility, Accuracy and Evasion buffs, but the way A7A goes about inflicting and breaking anomalies onto enemies falls a little short. Being able to inflict Freeze anomalies on Skill 2, only to be able to break them with her Last Word at 3P, compared to her Spell Card 2 both inflicting and breaking Paralyze anomalies on all enemies could clash with those aforementioned Freeze anomalies, and this isn’t mentioning the slight RNG with the Paralyze inflictions too, potentially posing a problem. All in all, there is definitely a sense of awkwardness in her breaking, but it’s not a be-all or end-all case.
