Touhou Shinsekai: Longing for an Alternative World Main Characters

■ Reimu Hakurei

A shrine maiden at the Hakurei Shrine. Since the shrine is located in the middle of nowhere and is rarely visited by human worshippers, she usually spends her time relaxing and drinking tea while gazing at the sky.

On the other hand, she is naturally gifted in both physical and spiritual arts, and has resolved numerous anomalies in order to maintain the balance of power between humans and youkai in Gensokyo. She has made it her life’s work to exterminate youkai, and when a youkai that harms humans appears, she exterminates it without mercy. However, she tends to skip her shrine maiden training.
