Dizzy: Not much is known about Reimu's childhood though small snippets from official Touhou Project media have given some insight into her past. Some suggest that Reimu is an orphan abandoned by her parents, or that she's the latest in a long line of Shrine Maidens. But what we do know about Reimu is that she's the shrine maiden of Hakurei Shrine.

Junko: And she's the source of everyone who likes armpits! You know who you are!

Dizzy: *ahem* Reimu works hard trying to balance and peaceful and quiet life with her duties as a shrine maiden, someone tasked with resolving incidents that threaten Gensokyo's peace. She prevents any and all conflict between the youkai and the humans, she desires a world where the two can live in peace.

Junko: And she's pretty damn good at it!

Junko: Believe it or not but she's actually stronger than most Youkai in her series! Beating girls like Megumu Iizunamaru, whose primary ability is to manipulate stars! She's fought Suika Ibuki, who could shatter heaven which is similar in size to hell... which is endless! 

Dizzy: She's fought Toyosatomimi no Miko who created Senkai, an infinitely expanding world. And she's defeated Kaguya Houraisan, who created the infinite corridor connected to Eitei. Which was made by infinitely linking gaps in space-time together.

Akame: She's fast too. She once flew to the end of Kaguya's corridor, which is composed of infinitely-linked pieces of the space-time continuum and is repeatedly stated to be infinite and endless. She raced against and ultimately caught up to the Palanquin Ship, which could fly to the edge of the infinitely-sized Makai without stopping or slowing down. And she crossed the infinite width of the Sanzu River in order to reach Hell.

Junko: She's taken hits from the denizens of Gensokyo and beyond, survived attacks from Kasen and Watatsuki no Yorihime alike, fell from high places on multiple occasions, and even survived a crash landing into the ocean of the Moon! Why is there an ocean on the moon? We don't ask such obvious questions.

Junko: Reimu may get lazy at times but she can get serious when the time calls for it. That is so long as it doesn't get in the way of her naps and parties and drinking.

Dizzy: Reimu is a skilled fighter with knowledge of many youkai, gods, and other spiritual beings. She is also extremely perceptive, having an innate knack for using her powers, even those she doesn't fully understand, weaving them into her movements and attacks without fully realizing or intending to do so. She is also incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to barriers and is capable of analyzing and dismantling barriers that neither Marisa nor Patchouli could understand. While she is exceptionally talented... she is also very lazy.

Akame: Of course, her primary weapon is her Gohei.

Junko: Yeah... another stick.

Akame: It's not just a stick. It's Reimu's primary weapon for close-quarters combat, otherwise known as the Purification Rod. It was originally owned by Rinnosuke. She uses it to deflect projectiles and even once killed a human-turned-Youkai with it by splitting his head in two.

Junko: ... Yeah, it's a big stick. But you know what's not a stick? Her Yin-Yang Balls!

Dizzy: A pair of orbs that only a blood member of the Hakurei clan may use. They're Reimu's main weapons and are very useful against Youkai and other non-humans. They can be used for both good and evil and they are a physical vessel for the Hakurei Shrine god. These orbs work by constantly absorbing the power of its user over time. Once they've been filled with the user's power, they can release all the stored energy at once, and then start the cycle over again.

Junko: And for some reason, they also prevent the user from getting fat. They can be used as communicators, projectiles, or even used to help Reimu fire Danmaku!

Junko: Also known as Bullet Hell and for good fuckin' reason! You know the Ki blast Goku and Vegeta fire around? Yeah, imagine that but everywhere! And it's beautiful for everyone who isn't the target trying to dodge them.

Akame: These energy bullets can take many forms like needles, barriers, and much more. But Reimu's primary bullets are her Ofuda cards.

Akame: Inscribed strips of paper or other material used within the Shinto religion as amulets or talismans for purification, exorcism, or protection. They have anti-youkai properties and can be used to keep Youkai away from certain places. She can also use them to create barriers and even clones of herself.

Junko: Yeah, but she also has her Fantasy Seal!

Dizzy: Another one of Reimu's signature abilities. A technique used to seal youkai using light bullets that home in on the opponent. The sealing works by taking their power away to the point they just disappear into dust. It has been stated that Reimu's Fantasy Seal is capable of ignoring the laws of physics. Marisa even states Reimu's Fantasy Seal is incredibly painful to handle.

Junko: Reimu can tear gaps in reality for transportation, create shockwaves around her called bombs, teleport, summon gods to possess her, and even has an orb that the user's impurity of death and allows them to see the immediate future by experiencing it, and then reversing time! And let's not even talk about her Luck.

Dizzy: Right. Reimu is noted to be extremely lucky by Rinnosuke Morichika and Marisa Kirisame, to the point that the outcome of everything seems to always side with her. This power can be used to make bullets miss, make one come out victorious at the end, and outright stop any lethal blows that are meant to kill Reimu. 

Junko: You might think this is just dumb luck, but nope! Luck in the Touhou world is actually associated with the third layer of the world that moves with probability and fate! Remilia herself has even been stated to have the same ability, only for Reimu it's something she does subconsciously with no real control over.

Akame: She also has Ability Cards.

Akame: Special cards that grant Reimu active abilities, passive perks, or additional items for battle. 

Junko: With the Mini-Hakkero she can shoot a giant laser or missiles!  With the stopwatch, she can stop time! She can summon dolls that fight alongside her, one of which can manipulate ice! She can hurl a fake moon at her opponents, summon flames that burn everything to ash, and so much more! 

Dizzy: But her most unique ability is her ability to float.

Dizzy: While flying is a widespread among inhabitants of Gensokyo, Reimu's ability extends beyond that, encompassing not only more complex techniques but her behavior in life. She merely casually floats through life and is so in touch with her surroundings that she has been likened to a hermit. As long as she "goes with the flow," she showcases both incredible intuition and luck, though she loses her edge when she is distracted or acting on selfish desires. She has been observed to dodge attacks as if she were made of air, while, from her perspective, the projectile swerved away from her, and she has walked across a river unknowingly without getting wet by stepping on fish as they leaped from the water. More notably, it allows her to accomplish things such as circling an enemy by moving in a straight line, appearing from the least probable places with no real reason, on top of teleporting short distances.

Junko: And that's when Fantasy Nature comes in. The ultimate expression of Reimu's ability to float!

Dizzy: Yeah, by merely floating away from existence, she becomes untouchable by normal means. When in this state, nothing can touch her and she can use this ability for however long she wants. This ability is not a spell card though. But since it was so overpowered, Marisa had to put a time limit under the spell car rules.

Junko: Spell Card Rules are pretty much optional though and because of that, they don't apply for a Death Battle.

Akame: But just because she's powerful doesn't mean she's unbeatable.

Junko: She's really lazy and simple-minded, rarely doing any training and just relying on her natural skill. Because of this, she's pretty much a "Jack-of-all-trades... Master of none" type of character. She hasn't even mastered her ability to summon gods.

Dizzy: Right. She has a ton of other unknown abilities even she doesn't know about yet, but because she doesn't feel like getting any stronger she's never mastered her full potential. 

Junko: It's also because of this that her ofuda are weaker against oblivious people, and are less effective in wind and rain... for some reason.

Dizzy: But she can take her responsibilities seriously when she really feels like it. And when she does get serious, she knows exactly how to get the job done!

Reimu: I get so excited with this many spectators. It just makes me want to be all like pow! and wham!
