Hashiyami hōno Kurayami honō is a crybaby oni with powerful strength and speed, but for yuugi and suika she’s like a spiritual sister to taking care and drink with her sometime Ability : manipulation of the iron and fire Yuugi Hoshiguma Personality Yuugi is a very firm and straightforward oni who loves the freedom of Former Hell. She likes those who are strong and brave, and has no mercy for the weak and cowardly. While she may be intimidating, she can be very friendly and sympathetic towards anyone regardless if they're a human, youkai or a vengeful spirit. Abilities Superhuman Strength Yuugi possesses enormous strength that far exceeds that of any other kind of youkai. She has arguably the greatest super-strength, as even Suika, that was considered the strongest in this sense by the time of Silent Sinner in Blue, admits that Yuugi might be physically stronger than she is. In Symposium of Post-mysticism, it is said that, according to rumors "her superhuman strength is of the level where her footsteps alone are enough to make nearby buildings collapse". She has also shown to be able to easily produce heat by raising her hand, and flatten trees merely by screaming. Wield unexplainable phenomena Anomalies, strength, disorder, and spirits (怪力乱神 kai-ryoku-ran-shin) is a metaphor for unexplainable phenomena that originates from the Analects of Confucius, where one of his disciples said "the Master never talked of anomalies, strength, disorder, or spirits." (子不語怪力亂神 shifugo-kairiki-ranshin) Furthermore, Yuugi's title is "the so-called unexplainable phenomenon". Occupation Yuugi spends her time in Old Hell, fraternizing with the other oni, engaging in frequent drinking contests and generally having a rowdy time. Possessions Yuugi carries a sake dish called the "Hoshiguma Dish". It raises the quality of any sake poured into it. Kasen Ibaraki later uses this to transform some of her own sake for a party at the Hakurei Shrine. The dish itself is considered a masterwork of the oni. Suika Personality Her personality is jolly and quite childish, as you would expect from her appearance. Despite her childlike exterior, however, she possesses great amounts of raw power. She loves drinking and is frequently seen in the fighting games drunk; she claims she's been drinking sake for some hundreds of years now. Suika bears the typical personality traits of most oni, valuing strength and fair play while despising dishonesty and cowardice. However, she is apparently slightly less honest than a typical oni. In addition, she doesn't kidnap humans, which is known to be the "strongest bond of trust" between oni and humans. However, she is nonetheless quite honest. Though she is generally a happy-go-lucky oni, as one of the most powerful youkai in Gensokyo, she can be very observant. In addition, she is seen being very critical of others in Immaterial and Missing Power, such as by calling Alice Margatroid a coward and telling Youmu Konpaku how people make fun of her. Abilities Suika, more than the abnormal strength of an oni, possesses super-strength. Aya Shameimaru, who has probably seen or heard of nearly every youkai by now, once referred to Suika as "simply the most powerful youkai in Gensokyo" Manipulation of density and sparseness A giant Suika about to squash Marisa Kirisame, as illustrated in The Grimoire of Marisa. Suika's ability to manipulate "density" gives her the power to control the density of any given object; to put it simply, assembly and dispersion. As the object's density increases, it heats up, and as it decreases, it turns into a mist. During her spell cards and other attacks, she can also create smaller versions of herself and make herself giant. She can also decrease her own body's density to become a mist, as she did during the events of Immaterial and Missing Power, making it impossible to attack her. By doing this all over Gensokyo, she can effectively keep an eye on everything going on. She can also gather things without shape, like people's souls, which caused the incident in the first place. She has also affected the Moon as reflected in sky (the canopy) to make it explode, then take the falling fragments and turn them into mist as well, but the details as to how are unknown. Youmu Konpaku, after striking her with one of her swords, commented that the sword itself reacted strangely. With this power, she was able to assemble the thoughts of people and youkai, and made the residents of Gensokyo periodically have a party. Possessions Suika has a gourd that she calls the Ibuki Gourd, which has been soaked in the extract of a sake bug, making it capable of turning water into sake. To prevent it from overflowing, the gourd has a stopper on it, and she can't pour out more than the gourd will hold at one time. Closing the gourd will make it refill right away. This is because it takes the evaporated contents of the countless ordinary gourds and turns them into alcohol inside the gourd.  Eiki Shiki, Yamaxanadu (四季映姫・ヤマザナドゥ, Shiki Eiki Yamazanadu , her name is "Eiki", her nickname "Shiki") is one of the Yamas who judge the dead and decide whether they go to Heaven , Hell , the Underworld , or are reincarnated. She currently resides in Hell. She is known throughout Gensokyo for berating everyone she meets for their flaws, perhaps because it is a habit or perhaps because she genuinely wants to change people for the better. The souls of the dead are brought to her by Komachi Onozuka , who transports them across the Sanzu River to Higan . However, not all souls make it to Eiki due to the fatigue of the journey or because they are directly annihilated by Komachi. Personality As a Yama who judges people after their death, Eiki is impartial when it comes to reprimanding anyone, humans and youkai alike. Since she is very preachy and never makes a mistake, she is difficult to approach. Despite her stern demeanor and seriousness in her work, Eiki has a playful side, smiling even when she reveals the flaws of the people she is lecturing. She is described as polite and patient during her lectures. Powers Her power is literally what it indicates. In order to make judgments, charges that have once been established as clearly right and wrong cannot, no matter what measures the person being judged takes, be reversed. The reason why Yukari Yakumo is unable to face Eiki is probably not only because she dislikes preaching, but also because Yukari is a youkai who enjoys chaos and disorder, and things being clearly established as right or wrong do not sit well with her. YUYUKO Yuyuko Saigyouji is the ghost princess of Hakugyokurou, the netherworld of the "formerly-living", but was once a living human. Long ago, after her death from suicide, her body was used to place a seal on the Saigyou Ayakashi, a dangerous youkai cherry tree, to stop it from killing innocent humans. She has the power to invite mortal souls to death, and those souls who perish this way wind up in Hakugyokurou rather than Heaven or Hell. Though it might seem dangerous for such a whimsical, seemingly impulsive personality to wield such a terrible power, Yuyuko appears to have a strong sense of responsibility regarding her power, and never uses it recklessly or out of spite, nor does she use it as a weapon. Ironically, it was this power that drove her to kill herself in the first place. Humans fear Yuyuko because of her fearsome power and a general fear of the supernatural, but she is very cheerful and friendly. Unlike many ghosts, she resembles a living human, and her playful, good-humored personality, otherworldly beauty, and courtesan charm can have a disarming effect. She often makes bizarre and apparently nonsensical remarks and sometimes seems to overlook the obvious, leading to her characterization as an airhead or a ditz. However, at other times, she will reveal an extremely cunning and perceptive side and will also sometimes display an extraordinary level of knowledge. She seems to never take anything too seriously, though, and she loves to tease her straight-laced and eager-to-please assistant, Youmu, who is her opposite in many ways. Probably originating from the term "hungry ghost", she is also known for her incredible appetite and seems to have a food-related metaphor for any situation. Yuyuko is truly "dead and loving it." YUKARI YAKUMO Over a thousand years ago, Yukari organized an army of youkai and led them in an invasion of the Moon. The youkai were subsequently routed by the Lunarians, who possessed superior technology and magic, and was forced to retreat to Earth. Since that time, no youkai have attempted to expand their territory beyond Gensokyo. While some speculate that Yukari organized the invasion out of selfish hunger for territory and power, others believe she did it to teach the youkai a lesson about starting wars of conquest; namely, that it was a bad idea. About a thousand years ago, Yukari met and became friends with a human girl named Yuyuko. After Yuyuko died, Yukari continued to be friends with Yuyuko's ghost, although Yuyuko gradually forgot who she had been and why she had died. In Perfect Cherry Blossom, Yuyuko requested that Yukari use her power to weaken the border between the Netherworld and Gensokyo, Yukari obliged. She knew Yuyuko's plan to make the Saigyou Ayakashi bloom could never succeed, but was too busy sleeping to say or do anything about it, or to put the border back to normal after everything was finished, which put her on a collision course with the heroines. Yukari is known for being a very youkai-like youkai who sleeps all day and lives for the enjoyment of life. Though she rarely leaves her house, she's well-connected and is acquainted with most of the most powerful youkai, such as Suika and Yuyuko, as well as anyone having anything to do with the Hakurei border or outside world (Reimu and Rinnosuke). She's possibly the most powerful youkai in Gensokyo, and has a tendency to toy with her opponents rather than use her full power from the start. She often has a great deal of insight and understanding about whatever happens in Gensokyo, and possesses considerable intellectual prowess as well. Though she seems flaky and unreliable most of the time, when the safety or security of Gensokyo is at stake, she won't hesitate to get involved, even if it means using others to do the work for her. For example, in Scarlet Weather Rhapsody, she treats Tenshi Hinanawi with much hostility after finding out the plot of the Heavens. She could easily be either a villain or a heroine, depending on her whims.
