Enrai

Expand

Enrai (a Touhou LW original) refers to distant thunder. This is an apt temperament for Tojiko, who is a ghost with a grudge just as strong as a vengeful spirit's. Tojiko is endowed with Wood Phase, the element of lightning, and with Moon Essence, as she accepts change.

The strong and kind Wood Phase resists Water Phase, because water nourishes wood, but it is weak to Metal Phase, because metal carves wood.

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

Fierce Thunderbolt

Soga no Tojiko's Spread Shot (a Touhou LW original). She throws balls of lightning at her target. There have been multiple accounts of people observing ball lightning worldwide, and there is even a report of someone losing their life when a ball hit them.

Thunder Bite

Soga no Tojiko's Focus Shot (a Touhou LW original). She crushes her opponent between two balls of lightning. It looks like the lightning bites them. The most dangerous thing to do during a lightning storm is to stay in an area with no elevated spots. If you happen to find yourself in an open space, you should immediately seek shelter inside a building.

Soga no Tojiko's Spell Card. She emits piercing bolts of lightning in this attack. When the capital city was relocated to Heijou-Kyou (today's Nara), Asuka Temple, built by Soga no Umako, was also moved there and renamed Gangou Temple. The temple was apparently very large during its heyday but has diminished over time.

Thunder Arrow: Gagouji's Tornado

Soga no Tojiko's Spell Card. She creates a destructive lightning storm. It is said that gagouji (also gagoze or gagoji) is a word that refers to an oni who had the form of a monk and lived at Gangou Temple. Gagouji has become a term used by children all across Japan to mean monsters in general. However, a famous folklorist posits that the term gagoze comes from how monsters would say ''kamou zo'' (I'll bite ya) when they appear. Perhaps it is something like the Bogeyman.

Thundering Illusions

Soga no Tojiko's Last Word (a Touhou LW original). She unleashes the lightning from the Age of the Gods that was feared by all humans. The rise of science stole electricity's mysteries, making it a slave to humans. However, Tojiko uses ancient lightning―a medium for her vengeance that splits the sky and shatters the earth.

Perhaps Tojiko occasionally reminisces about the time long ago when she was still corporeal and lived alongside Miko and Futo. She might also reflect on how fortunate she is to still be with them today.

Character Ability

Capable of causing lightning

Expand

Soga no Tojiko's ability as a ghost who held a deep-seated grudge. She can cause lightning to fall around her. This is a simple yet terrifying ability.

Apparently, many vengeful spirits are capable of causing lightning to occur. Tojiko probably acquired this ability because she held a grudge against humans that rivaled the grudges of greater vengeful spirits. She isn't quite as resentful these days, but her ability doesn't seem to have changed, so it can be assumed that she doesn't directly cause lightning to occur through her resentful emotions.

It is said that lightning has one of the highest instantaneous voltages in the observable universe. There is some scientific basis for this statement, but it is much more occult in nature. The act of causing a supernatural phenomenon with an extremely high electric power is a staple of science fiction novels. However, electricity has lost its mysticism through scientific study, so the popular tropes have rapidly changed to such things as nuclear power, subatomic particles, and astronomical phenomena. No one considers electricity mystical or mysterious anymore. It has become a part of daily life, just like water and natural gas.

However, lightning still causes people to shudder with fear. Even if you know how it works, it is still terrifying.

For every layer of Barrier Status: Paralyze, Yang ATK, Yin ATK, CRIT ATK, and CRIT Accuracy 1 level UP.

DMG to effective elements 20% UP.

Character Analysis

Soga no Tojiko was released on October 20, 2022 in "Prayer: Saint, Shock & Feng Shui." For more up-to-date analysis, be sure to visit the Official Discord Server.

Little is truly known about the vengeful spirit, Soga no Tojiko. Residing in the Hall of Dreams' Great Mausoleum, she serves her master, Toyosatomimi no Miko alongside Mononobe no Futo, guarding the inner sanctum from intruders. Her ability to wield thunder as a weapon manifests in Touhou LostWord as an electrifying DEST Friend that’s ready to rumble alongside her newest master.

Despite her role as one of Prince Shotoku’s servants, Tojiko is a very self-serving Friend. Her first two skills increase her own Crit ACC and her Yin ATK, while also inflicting 2 Paralysis anomalies on herself, synergizing with her ability to gain one stack of Yang ATK, Yin ATK, Crit ATK and Crit ACC per Paralysis barrier she holds, while being immune to the effects of Paralysis. Her Last Word also provides herself with further buffs, increasing her Yin ATK further while also injecting more Paralysis into her barriers so she can go out with a bang.

She has some minor team support on her third Skill, which boosts ally Crit ATK by 2 levels while also, you guessed it, imbibing herself with Paralysis (2 barriers). Her first Spell Card boosts ally Crit ACC instead as a pre-attack effect. Just make sure not to fire it when using her second Skill as that also provides her with Charge, ensuring she goes last among her peers in the same class of attack.

Element-wise, Tojiko offers some decent Wood and Moon breaks. Both her first and second Spell Cards hit ALL enemies, dealing 3 Wood and 2 Moon worth of Element damage reach. As is par for the course for most AoE hitters, her Last Word is a Single Target nuke, landing 3 Wood and 3 Moon breaks on one unlucky opponent. It is worth noting that both her Spread and Focus shots can hit Single Target Elements at P0, with the former breaking Wood while the latter breaks Moon.

In terms of anomaly support, Tojiko can also inflict 2 barriers of Paralysis on all enemies with her second Spell Card. While she is unable to break them herself, this lends to a match where you may wish to watch as your enemies flail around with random Stuns hitting them, or better, bring an Anomaly breaker like Iku Nagae or Mysterious Sword Master, Youmu Konpaku to erase those barriers for you! Incidentally, the other Lightning-related Friend also hits Moon and Wood, making Iku a fine Friend to bring along as a companion for the thunderous spirit.

Conspicuously absent from her kit are Accuracy and Spirit P boosts, meaning she will require Story Cards to help her boost those stats, or Friends who can support her in that way. Be sure to pack wisely when bringing her into firefights!

Story Card Recommendations

(Card recommendations last updated on October 20, 2022)

Spell Card

Valued Tools of the Trade

Shichi-Go-San School Visit?!

Midnight Tea

Most crucial to Tojiko’s functionality is fixing her lack of accuracy, especially on deeper bullet lines in her attacks. This makes both Valued Tools of the Trade and Shichi-Go-San School Visit a handy choice to have around. Her low Accuracy stat means that she would require for Valued Tools of the Trade to be Max Limit Broken to be fully accurate, or to inflict Paralysis on her enemies from the beginning. Midnight Tea can then supplement her kit with Spirit P while provide Yin ATK stats to boost her damage

Last Word

Anniversary at the SDM

Unmoving Great Library

Occult Circle

With her Last Word consisting fully of Laser bullets and being Single target only, Anniversary at the SDM is uniquely positioned to be one of her best cards to play at any given moment, reducing both a target’s Yin DEF while boosting Laser damage by 25% Should you have enough levels of Yin ATK at your disposal, Unmoving Great Library boosts both her Moon lines as well as Laser damage. Occult Circle is also a fine substitute, being an easy card to farm that boosts Laser damage.

Character Skill Level Up Recommendations

Go with Tojiko’s second skill, Thunderous Roar for the Yin ATK boost and Charge to help her obtain more boosts from allies in battle. Her third skill, Lightning Summon can come next for team Crit ATK up and 2 Paralysis barriers for herself to wield for a variety of buffs. Finally, spend books on her first skill, Induced Lightning to help with her Crit ACC and give herself another 2 Paralysis barriers to complete her loadout

Character Strengths

+ Decent Wood and Moon breaks that hit AoE on up to 4 Spell Cards

+ 0P breaks on both Spread and Focus Shot

Character Weaknesses

- Requires Accuracy and Spirit P support

- Heavily backloaded

- Selfish attacker with low utility
