::''The Expressive Poker Face''
::'''Hata no Kokoro'''
-->''"In place of my lost Mask of Hope, a new hope awaits. I have nothing against you personally. However, I will claim all the hope in Gensokyo! For the sake of all human emotion!"''
A ''[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menreiki menreiki]]'', a [[AnimateInanimateObject tsukumogami]] of the legendary kagura/noh masks of [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hata_no_Kawakatsu Hata no Kawakatsu]]. She was originally 66 masks, but then the "mask of hope" was lost, causing her to go insane. Because of her power to control emotions combined with her own emotions running wild, her hopelessness accidentally spread to the humans of the village, giving rise to the events of ''Hopeless Masquerade''.
!!!Tropes associated with Kokoro:
* {{Adorkable}}: After everyone else knocks some sense into her, that is.
* {{Animate Inanimate Object}}s: Though like Kogasa before her, she has manifested a human-looking body separate from the masks themselves.
* {{Badass}}: Takes on Reimu, Byakuren, and Miko ''at the same time'' and '''wins'''. Doesn't get much more badass than that. And before doing that, she defeated the rest of ''Hopeless Masquerade'' cast consecutively without resting.
** When the game was originally released Kokoro had no Special Moves or Spell Cards. So from the player's perspective she beats them all ''with just normal moves''. If this isn't badass then what is?
** TookALevelInBadass: Before her story mode, she loses to absolutely everyone she meets, with no indication she's holding back. Apparently getting that perfect hope mask and Mamizou's pep talk did a lot for her...
* [[BecomeARealBoy Become A Real Youkai]]: Kokoro's story mode involves her trying to learn about emotions and facial expressions from others so that she could reawaken as a proper Menreiki.
* BlackScreenOfDeath: Her Last Word, the aptly named ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLAazkoQUgU Dance of Empty Masks "Noh of Darkness"]]''. When it connects, the screen goes black, but then there are brief flashes of Kokoro wailing on her opponent.
* BloodKnight: Spends most of her story mode challenging the other characters, to prove that she's the strongest. She's pretty excited about it, too. This is just part of her quest for identity, since [[spoiler:Mamizou told her to in her ending]].
* BodyMotifs: Faces. No surprise there.
* BreathWeapon: Donning herself a lion mask as either the FinalBoss or the Playable Character will give her one. See WaveMotionGun below.
* CharacterArc: ''Hopeless Masquerade'' is essentially about her development as a youkai. Particularly notable considering how static most of ''Touhou'''s cast is.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Since she's still getting used to becoming a youkai, she tends to be a little odd.
* ColorCodedEmotions: Red for anger, blue for melancholy and green for joy.
* TheComicallySerious: Her strange and sometimes excitable behavior combined with her [[FrozenFace constant poker face]] makes her come across as this at times. It's ramped UpToEleven in fanworks.
* CoolMask: Her overall theme, since she ''is'' one--or rather, she's a collection of 65 masks (66 before one of them went missing). She always has several [[FloatingMask floating around her]], and she uses them to express emotions as well as to fight.
* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Her hair and eyes are the same pale pink colour.
* DanceBattler: When using her fans. Especially so during her last spellcard.
* EmotionBomb: The power of Kokoro's individual masks, each tied to a different emotion. In gameplay terms this allows her to [[StanceSystem change her religious "stance" mid-battle]] (Anger for Buddhism, Melancholy for Shinto, and Joy for Taoism), or even change her opponent's.
** Changing opponent's emotion (and consequently, that opponent's aligned faith) has two ways: her spell card [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0CMgdAKtn7s Possession "Four Humors Possession"]]; and her forward Y command which lets her fire the mask of her current emotion to her opponent. The latter requires a small distance between Kokoro and her opponent.

* EvilMask: In her stage, the people she has drained of hope are depicted as wearing them.

* FloatingMask: She has some of her 65 masks (again, 66 minus the Mask of Hope) always floating around her.
** In the game, three out of those 65 are maintained for her, namely: [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hannya Hannya]] (the red mask with horns) symbolizing Anger, [[http://nohmask21.com/eu/uba.html Uba]] (depicting an old woman) for Melancholy, and [[http://nohmask21.com/eu/koomote1.html Ko-omote]] (depicting a young woman with a white face) for Joy. All of her skills and spellcards are based on the three emotions the said masks embody.
* FrozenFace: Her facial expression never changes, so she floats different masks in front of her face to express emotions. The focus of her story mode is to fix this.
* GettingSmiliesPaintedOnYourSoul: Capable of this ingame with one of her spellcards if she has the happiness mask on. Also applies for her power in general, and with more emotions than just happiness.
* HasTwoMommies: It's popular in fanworks for [[FoeYayShipping Miko and Byakuren]] to adopt her.
* HeroAntagonist: She eventually tries to stop the incident she inadvertently caused.
* HistoricalDomainCharacter[=/=]PublicDomainArtifact: Both Hata no Kawakatsu and the masks themselves.
* IAmLegion: When she gets particularly emotional during Mamizou's route, she seems to unconsciously switch to referring to herself in the plural; this is fitting, since she was originally a collection of masks.
* IShouldWriteABookAboutThis: [[spoiler:In her ending, she creates a new Noh play based on the events of ''Hopeless Masquerade''. She even gives it the same name as the Japanese title of the game, "Shinkirou"]].
* LargeHam: She even puts on a mask ''specifically'' for being a LargeHam just because she thought it was appropriate.
-->'''Kokoro [with Golden Mask]''': ''That's it!''
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLKzVQkvPHk "Lost Emotion"]] and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4KYt-62LLY "The Village in the Dead of Night"]]
** RecurringRiff: To further emphasize the connection between Miko and Kokoro (Prince Shoutoku, the historical figure Miko was based on, was said to be the one who created Hata no Kawakatsu's masks), "Lost Emotion" reuses the entire chorus from "True Administrator".
* LossOfIdentity: The reason why she was reluctant to accept [[spoiler:the new Mask of Hope Miko made for her]]. It was too perfect as a tool that using it would eventually cause her to lose her identity as a {{Youkai}} and revert back to a set of ordinary masks.
* MaskOfPower: Most of her spellcards are her putting on special masks and being granted their power.
* MoodSwinger: In the unstabilized state she appears in during the events of the game, she switches emotions frequently, made obvious by her masks.
* MeaningfulName: Most non-Japanese speakers already know that ''kokoro'' means "heart", but in Japanese the word has a multitude of meanings. In this case, the fact that Kokoro's name can mean "feelings" or "emotions" is very appropriate for her.
* MultiMeleeMaster
** BladeOnAStick: Wields what looks like a ''naginata'' as one of her melee weapons.
** CombatHandFan: Carries a pair of folding fans, used both for melee attacks and to shoot projectiles.
* ObviousBeta: She wasn't fully completed when ''Hopeless Masquerade'' was first released, so she was only playable in Story mode with just some normal moves. She became playable in version 1.20.
* OxymoronicBeing: "Expressive Poker Face" is an oxymoron, since while Kokoro's facial expression ''is'' [[FrozenFace a poker face]] she still expresses emotions through her masks.
* PowerIncontinence: Losing her Mask of Hope caused her EmotionBomb powers to go haywire, making everyone lose hope too.
* ReiAyanamiExpy: A pink-haired EmotionlessGirl who happens to be a tsukumogami based on a set of 66 noh theater masks and has a close connection to an antagonist from the previous game in the series.
* RoseHairedSweetie: Played with; she's rather excitable and friendly in her behaviour, but she's much more [[FrozenFace stoic]] than most pink-haired characters.
* RuleOfFunny: Since she supposedly has many masks, fanworks are depicting her with [[http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=36039438 masks]] [[http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=36035993 not native]] [[http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=36035330 to Touhou]].
** Another fanwork gag is having her do something without an expression yet having the fitting mask nearby.
* ShoutOut: One of her {{Palette Swap}}s makes her look rather like [[VisualNovel/DanganRonpa Kyouko Kirigiri]].
* StanceSystem: More or less. Her specials switch her to the related faith, changing her danmaku. She switches back to her deck's faith if she gets hit, or if she chooses to fire the mask which embodies her current emotion to the opponent.
** One of her skills, ''Kokoro Roulette'', allows her to change into one of the three faiths immediately. This allows her to switch to a faith when you do not have any skills in your current set that will switch you to the desired faith. It has been a staple in many players' sets in which they set Kokoro's skills for her to be aligned into one faith automatically.
* TheStoic: She appears to be this at first glance, but it's only because [[FrozenFace her face is stuck that way]]. Thanks to her masks and body language, she very quickly proves that she's actually quite emotional.
* SugarAndIcePersonality
* SweetAndSourGrapes: She spends most of the game looking for her lost mask, and even when she finds it, she doesn't get it back. [[spoiler: Then she gets a new Mask of Hope from Miko, and even gets her old one back from Koishi, but then states that she doesn't need them anymore, as she's happy with her new emotions.]]
* WaveMotionGun: One of her attacks, ''Delighted Lion Mask'', has her don a lion mask and breathe a huge wave of fire.
** A larger version of this is used for her spellcard ''Joy Sign "Invigorated Kagura Lion"'', when you fight against her in the Story Mode.
* WhenSheSmiles: [[spoiler: The very last image of the story.]]
* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Her hair is pale pink.
* YouWillNotEvadeMe: Her skill ''Shouting Giant Spider Mask'' shoots out a web which can drag the opponent back to Kokoro.

::''Beautiful Scarlet Cloth''
::'''Iku Nagae'''
-->''"We are messengers from the Dragon Palace. We swim in the sky only to warn of a certain disaster. The scarlet mist is a mist of temperament. The scarlet sky is a sign of the disaster to come. The scarlet clouds shall shake the earth. We swim to convey these things."''
An oarfish youkai and a messenger of the Dragon Palace (the Japanese term for "oarfish" [[{{Pun}} literally means]] "Messenger of the Dragon Palace"), she is said to be able to communicate with dragons. During the events of ''Scarlet Weather Rhapsody'' she realizes that an earthquake is going to occur in Gensokyo, so she travels there to warn the residents. This being ''Touhou'', everyone who meets her assumes she's the cause of the incidents and decides to fight her instead.
!!!Tropes associated with Iku:
* AnimalMotifs: She's a youkai of oarfishes, and the shape of her shawl and scarf resembles an oarfish's long, narrow body with red fins. She also has "antenna" on her NiceHat that look like the spines on an oarfish. The fact that she goes to Gensokyo to warn the residents of an earthquake ties into this as well, since oarfish have a tendency to wash up on beaches before earthquakes occur.
* CoolBigSis: Quite a few pieces of fanart and even some {{doujinshi}} love to depict Iku as Tenshi's babysitter and sister figure, sometimes willingly caring for "Eldest Daughter" of the the Hinanai clan, sometimes very much against her will.
* DrowningMySorrows: After being beaten up over and over when she was JustTryingToHelp by warning everyone about Tenshi and the earthquakes and an utterly frustrating meeting with the Celestial herself, she returns to Heaven to find ''Suika'', who had beat Iku earlier and was enjoying the land she bullied out of Tenshi. Finally fed up with her day, she accepts the drink and the invitation to just vent out Suika offers her.
* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: Fandom example. "[[{{Squee}} Kyaa~]] Iku-sa~n!" is a recurring line among Japanese fans.
* HeyYou: One of the ''many'' complaints she has against Tenshi is that before the game she hadn't bothered to memorize Iku's name.
* JustTryingToHelp: Technically, what Tenshi does isn't her problem; at most, her job implies warning someone else of the Hinanai clan about it. Out of her own volition, she traveled to Gensokyo to warn everyone, getting only fight after fight for her trouble. Understandably, she's ''very'' cross when she finally manages to find Tenshi.
* LadyOfWar: Messenger of the Dragon Palace and she fights with a freaking frilly scarf. It doesn't get any classier than that.
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mi_wxBoHg0E "Crimson in the Black Sea ~ Legendary Fish"]]
* GlassCannon [=/=] LongRangeFighter [=/=] MightyGlacier: Iku sits next to Utsuho as the slowest character in the fighting games (unless you give her the ''Dragonfish, Able Swimmer'' skill card), and combined with her large hitbox and light weight she can be easily {{Combo}}ed by enemies who manage to get in close. She can hit ''really'' hard, though.
* PsychicPowers: She has the power to "read the atmosphere". The term used in Japanese for "atmosphere" - just like the English word - can be read as either "weather" or "mood".
** Appropriate for the plot of Scarlet Weather Rhapsody, in which the strange weather patterns were created by the temperaments (moods and dispositions) of the various characters in the game.
* ScarfOfAsskicking: Literally, since she ''weaponizes'' it.
* ShockAndAwe
* ShoutOut: Whenever she uses some attacks, she strikes a pose similar to ''GreatMazinger''[='=]s Thunder Break attack. She also fights with a scarf and has attacks with spark effects, much like Lisa Lisa from Part 2 of ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure''.
* TheSlacker: Her profile describes her personality as being lazy and unwilling to take initiative, so fans tend to portray her as a downright slob at home.
* StayingAliveDancePose[=/=]MemeticHandGesture: The way she holds her spellcards in the air underwent MemeticMutation in the fandom. It's known as ''SaturdayNightFever'', after her spellcard ''and'' the movie of the same name.
* StealthPun: ''Iku'' can also mean "to go". It also is what a Japanese woman typically [[TheImmodestOrgasm shouts]] as she reaches climax in most hentai productions. [[{{Ecchi}} Raunchy jokes]] used to be commonplace.
* ThisIsADrill: Her scarf can turn into a drill.

::''Young Mistress of Bhava-Agra''
::'''Tenshi Hinanawi/[[SpellMyNameWithAnS Hinanai]]'''
-->''"I don't really want to unleash an earthquake on Gensokyo. A celestial's life is so boring; I just want to play like everyone else down there! That's why I made it look like a big quake was coming, to see who might come and stop me. You, who came all the way up here, can you satisfy me? You don't look very dependable...."''
Born as Chiko Hinanawi, she ascended alongside her parents when they became celestials, and chose to rename herself Tenshi. However, as she did not earn ascension herself she is considerably less enlightened than her peers, referred to as a delinquent celestial, quickly bored and frustrated with Bhava-Agra. This is what prompted her to cause chaos in Gensoukyou, having watched several of the incidents its inhabitants have caused and deciding they must be lots of fun.
!!!Tropes associated with Tenshi:
* AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence: Her parents did. She tagged along with them as a young child.
* BerserkButton: She easily takes offense if you belittle her abilities.
* ChildrenAreInnocent: Believe it or not, but [[WordOfGod ZUN]] ''defended'' her in the interview in ''Symposium of Post-mysticism''. This was also noted in her description in SWR: she was raised as a Celestial after her parents ascended to FluffyCloudHeaven, but her childish personality stayed with her and she never really matured.
* ComesGreatResponsibility: Arguably her greatest character flaw. She was very young when she and her parents ascended as Celestials, and thus while [[WordOfGod ZUN himself stated]] that she has a good heart, she's still immature and doesn't know where and when to limit her newfound abilities. Which means she [[BlueAndOrangeMorality saw nothing wrong with]] causing an earthquake to start an incident in Gensokyo.
* CoolSword: The ''Hisou no Tsurugi'', or the Sword of Scarlet Perceptions, which can absorb life force, control the weather, be stored in any form, shapeshift to exploit the opponent's weaknesses, and make the user look badass while holding it, too! She can even ''[[ThrowingYourSwordAlwaysWorks use it like a boomerang]]''.
* DesignatedVillain: The plot of ''Scarlet Weather Rhapsody'' was kicked off when she [[InvokedTrope designated herself]] as the villain.
* DishingOutDirt: Other than [[BeamSpam spamming beams]], she has a lot of rock-based attacks.
* EasilyForgiven: '''Averted!''' She's one of only two ''Touhou'' antagonists[[note]]the other being Seija Kijin[[/note]] who ''wasn't'' easily forgiven. [[EveryoneHasStandards Evidently, boredom not a good reason to start an incident.]]
* TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt: She ''almost'' caused this. Tenshi's initial earthquake that leveled the Hakurei Shrine had the unintended side effect of damaging the Great Hakurei Barrier (since the shrine is a part of the barrier), which, if destroyed, would wipe Gensokyo from existence. Not only does this get a ''lot'' of people mad at her, but the anger stays even after the incident is resolved. Poor girl should've done her homework.
* EnemiesWithDeath: She is immortal by virtue of defeating every shinigami that comes to get her. Naturally, this leads to conflict with Gensokyo's resident shinigami, Komachi.
** Although it should be noted if they're just sending shinigami after her, she's not a priority. As Komachi notes, they've got bigger guns than shinigami if the afterlife really wants someone dead.
* FinalBoss
* IceCreamKoan: Tenshi has a habit of spouting Buddhist sayings without fully understanding their meaning.
* ItAmusedMe: Piggybacking on her parents' achievements, she got into Heaven while still alive, and has beaten up countless {{shinigami}} to extend her natural life. So why does she start an incident, knowing that it would draw people like Reimu to her? Because she is so enormously ''bored'' of the endless pleasures in Heaven. She wanted some excitement. It then ends up [[DeconstructedTrope deconstructed]] because this earns her the ire of nearly every big name in Gensokyo.
* {{Jerkass}}: Sort of. She certainly comes across as one with her style of incident [[ItAmusedMe and the reason behind it]], but in reality she's just immature. Noteworthy is that ZUN ''defends'' her by [[WordOfGod pointing out she has a good heart and that everyone else was bullying her]]... not that this makes her actions and motives any less inexcusable.
* KamehameHadoken: Her ultimate spell card, "Scarlet Weather Rhapsody of All Humankind" ([[SpellMyNameWithAnS aka "Scarlet Weather Rapture"]]). Though as Marisa notes in ''Grimoire of Marisa'', it's not actually a beam, but a shower of countless bullets condensed together so that it looks solid. This can be seen in ''Double Spoiler'' in which it breaks apart when hitting a wall.
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZpimM9FF_cI "Catastrophe in Bhava-agra ~ Wonderful Heaven"]] and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zM636580PhI "Bhava-agra as Seen Through a Child's Eyes."]]
* MeaningfulName: Chiko, her name when she was human, means "earth child," while Tenshi means "heavenly child."
* OurAngelsAreDifferent: About all she has in common with angels is the name and residence, really. If her name were written differently (天使 instead of 天子), it would mean "angel" in Japanese.
* SoulCuttingBlade: The Sword of Hisou.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS:
** Her family name is more correctly rendered as "Hinanai" in modern Japanese. The official Japanese pronunciation retains the archaic kana ゐ ("wi"), as Tenshi was born long, long before it was legislated out of common usage.
** The Kanji in her given name can also be read as "Tenko". Due to a joke before her game's (''Hisouten'''s) release that the final boss would be named "Hisou Tenko", this quickly became a nickname for her, and she is occasionally included in Ran's "Suppa Tenko" meme.
** Her final attack can be translated as either "[[TitleDrop Scarlet Weather Rhapsody]] of All Mankind" or "Scarlet Weather Rapture".
* SwordPlant: She does this to demonstrate her sword's powers in her pre-battle cutscene. And she does it to raise pillars of earth for her second-to-last boss spell card. Also part of her normal, playable moveset as a way to trigger earthquakes and such.
* TitleDrop: Her final attack, "Scarlet Weather Rhapsody of All Mankind" (but see SpellMyNameWithAnS above).
* ThrowingYourSwordAlwaysWorks: One of her alternate special moves, Sword of Fate. Not only does it always work (if it hits), but it also returns [[EverythingsBetterWithSpinning like a boomerang]], homing in on her. If she uses another sword attack before it ends, the sword returns instantly; if she catches it normally (and she always catches the hilt), she is rendered helpless for a split second.
* TooKinkyToTorture: As a result of Tenshi demanding you punish her in some of her quotes in ''SWR'', [[{{Flanderization}} she has been portrayed]] as a ''masochist''.
* [[WeatherControlMachine Weather Control Artifact]]: Her weapon, the ''Hisou no Tsurugi'', has the power to alter the weather, although it's more of a side effect rather than the purpose of the weapon. Regardless, she still uses this "function" to kick off her incident.

Finally fed up with her day, she accepts the drink and the invitation to just vent out Suika offers her.
* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: Fandom example. "[[{{Squee}} Kyaa~]] Iku-sa~n!" is a recurring line among Japanese fans.
* HeyYou: One of the ''many'' complaints she has against Tenshi is that before the game she hadn't bothered to memorize Iku's name.
* JustTryingToHelp: Technically, what Tenshi does isn't her problem; at most, her job implies warning someone else of the Hinanai clan about it. Out of her own volition, she traveled to Gensokyo to warn everyone, getting only fight after fight for her trouble. Understandably, she's ''very'' cross when she finally manages to find Tenshi.
* LadyOfWar: Messenger of the Dragon Palace and she fights with a freaking frilly scarf. It doesn't get any classier than that.
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mi_wxBoHg0E "Crimson in the Black Sea ~ Legendary Fish"]]
* GlassCannon [=/=] LongRangeFighter [=/=] MightyGlacier: Iku sits next to Utsuho as the slowest character in the fighting games (unless you give her the ''Dragonfish, Able Swimmer'' skill card), and combined with her large hitbox and light weight she can be easily {{Combo}}ed by enemies who manage to get in close. She can hit ''really'' hard, though.
* PsychicPowers: She has the power to "read the atmosphere". The term used in Japanese for "atmosphere" - just like the English word - can be read as either "weather" or "mood".
** Appropriate for the plot of Scarlet Weather Rhapsody, in which the strange weather patterns were created by the temperaments (moods and dispositions) of the various characters in the game.
* ScarfOfAsskicking: Literally, since she ''weaponizes'' it.
* ShockAndAwe
* ShoutOut: Whenever she uses some attacks, she strikes a pose similar to ''GreatMazinger''[='=]s Thunder Break attack. She also fights with a scarf and has attacks with spark effects, much like Lisa Lisa from Part 2 of ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure''.
* TheSlacker: Her profile describes her personality as being lazy and unwilling to take initiative, so fans tend to portray her as a downright slob at home.
* StayingAliveDancePose[=/=]MemeticHandGesture: The way she holds her spellcards in the air underwent MemeticMutation in the fandom. It's known as ''SaturdayNightFever'', after her spellcard ''and'' the movie of the same name.
* StealthPun: ''Iku'' can also mean "to go". It also is what a Japanese woman typically [[TheImmodestOrgasm shouts]] as she reaches climax in most hentai productions. [[{{Ecchi}} Raunchy jokes]] used to be commonplace.
* ThisIsADrill: Her scarf can turn into a drill.

[[folder:Tenshi Hinanawi]]
[[quoteright:235:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/th105tenshi_2499.png]]
::''Young Mistress of Bhava-Agra''
::'''Tenshi Hinanawi/[[SpellMyNameWithAnS Hinanai]]'''
-->''"I don't really want to unleash an earthquake on Gensokyo. A celestial's life is so boring; I just want to play like everyone else down there! That's why I made it look like a big quake was coming, to see who might come and stop me. You, who came all the way up here, can you satisfy me? You don't look very dependable...."''
Born as Chiko Hinanawi, she ascended alongside her parents when they became celestials, and chose to rename herself Tenshi. However, as she did not earn ascension herself she is considerably less enlightened than her peers, referred to as a delinquent celestial, quickly bored and frustrated with Bhava-Agra. This is what prompted her to cause chaos in Gensoukyou, having watched several of the incidents its inhabitants have caused and deciding they must be lots of fun.
!!!Tropes associated with Tenshi:
* AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence: Her parents did. She tagged along with them as a young child.
* BerserkButton: She easily takes offense if you belittle her abilities.
* ChildrenAreInnocent: Believe it or not, but [[WordOfGod ZUN]] ''defended'' her in the interview in ''Symposium of Post-mysticism''. This was also noted in her description in SWR: she was raised as a Celestial after her parents ascended to FluffyCloudHeaven, but her childish personality stayed with her and she never really matured.
* ComesGreatResponsibility: Arguably her greatest character flaw. She was very young when she and her parents ascended as Celestials, and thus while [[WordOfGod ZUN himself stated]] that she has a good heart, she's still immature and doesn't know where and when to limit her newfound abilities. Which means she [[BlueAndOrangeMorality saw nothing wrong with]] causing an earthquake to start an incident in Gensokyo.
* CoolSword: The ''Hisou no Tsurugi'', or the Sword of Scarlet Perceptions, which can absorb life force, control the weather, be stored in any form, shapeshift to exploit the opponent's weaknesses, and make the user look badass while holding it, too! She can even ''[[ThrowingYourSwordAlwaysWorks use it like a boomerang]]''.
* DesignatedVillain: The plot of ''Scarlet Weather Rhapsody'' was kicked off when she [[InvokedTrope designated herself]] as the villain.
* DishingOutDirt: Other than [[BeamSpam spamming beams]], she has a lot of rock-based attacks.
* EasilyForgiven: '''Averted!''' She's one of only two ''Touhou'' antagonists[[note]]the other being Seija Kijin[[/note]] who ''wasn't'' easily forgiven. [[EveryoneHasStandards Evidently, boredom not a good reason to start an incident.]]
* TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt: She ''almost'' caused this. Tenshi's initial earthquake that leveled the Hakurei Shrine had the unintended side effect of damaging the Great Hakurei Barrier (since the shrine is a part of the barrier), which, if destroyed, would wipe Gensokyo from existence. Not only does this get a ''lot'' of people mad at her, but the anger stays even after the incident is resolved. Poor girl should've done her homework.
* EnemiesWithDeath: She is immortal by virtue of defeating every shinigami that comes to get her. Naturally, this leads to conflict with Gensokyo's resident shinigami, Komachi.
** Although it should be noted if they're just sending shinigami after her, she's not a priority. As Komachi notes, they've got bigger guns than shinigami if the afterlife really wants someone dead.
* FinalBoss
* IceCreamKoan: Tenshi has a habit of spouting Buddhist sayings without fully understanding their meaning.
* ItAmusedMe: Piggybacking on her parents' achievements, she got into Heaven while still alive, and has beaten up countless {{shinigami}} to extend her natural life. So why does she start an incident, knowing that it would draw people like Reimu to her? Because she is so enormously ''bored'' of the endless pleasures in Heaven. She wanted some excitement. It then ends up [[DeconstructedTrope deconstructed]] because this earns her the ire of nearly every big name in Gensokyo.
* {{Jerkass}}: Sort of. She certainly comes across as one with her style of incident [[ItAmusedMe and the reason behind it]], but in reality she's just immature. Noteworthy is that ZUN ''defends'' her by [[WordOfGod pointing out she has a good heart and that everyone else was bullying her]]... not that this makes her actions and motives any less inexcusable.
* KamehameHadoken: Her ultimate spell card, "Scarlet Weather Rhapsody of All Humankind" ([[SpellMyNameWithAnS aka "Scarlet Weather Rapture"]]). Though as Marisa notes in ''Grimoire of Marisa'', it's not actually a beam, but a shower of countless bullets condensed together so that it looks solid. This can be seen in ''Double Spoiler'' in which it breaks apart when hitting a wall.
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZpimM9FF_cI "Catastrophe in Bhava-agra ~ Wonderful Heaven"]] and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zM636580PhI "Bhava-agra as Seen Through a Child's Eyes."]]
* MeaningfulName: Chiko, her name when she was human, means "earth child," while Tenshi means "heavenly child."
* OurAngelsAreDifferent: About all she has in common with angels is the name and residence, really. If her name were written differently (天使 instead of 天子), it would mean "angel" in Japanese.
* SoulCuttingBlade: The Sword of Hisou.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS:
** Her family name is more correctly rendered as "Hinanai" in modern Japanese. The official Japanese pronunciation retains the archaic kana ゐ ("wi"), as Tenshi was born long, long before it was legislated out of common usage.
** The Kanji in her given name can also be read as "Tenko". Due to a joke before her game's (''Hisouten'''s) release that the final boss would be named "Hisou Tenko", this quickly became a nickname for her, and she is occasionally included in Ran's "Suppa Tenko" meme.
** Her final attack can be translated as either "[[TitleDrop Scarlet Weather Rhapsody]] of All Mankind" or "Scarlet Weather Rapture".
* SwordPlant: She does this to demonstrate her sword's powers in her pre-battle cutscene. And she does it to raise pillars of earth for her second-to-last boss spell card. Also part of her normal, playable moveset as a way to trigger earthquakes and such.
* TitleDrop: Her final attack, "Scarlet Weather Rhapsody of All Mankind" (but see SpellMyNameWithAnS above).
* ThrowingYourSwordAlwaysWorks: One of her alternate special moves, Sword of Fate. Not only does it always work (if it hits), but it also returns [[EverythingsBetterWithSpinning like a boomerang]], homing in on her. If she uses another sword attack before it ends, the sword returns instantly; if she catches it normally (and she always catches the hilt), she is rendered helpless for a split second.
* TooKinkyToTorture: As a result of Tenshi demanding you punish her in some of her quotes in ''SWR'', [[{{Flanderization}} she has been portrayed]] as a ''masochist''.
* [[WeatherControlMachine Weather Control Artifact]]: Her weapon, the ''Hisou no Tsurugi'', has the power to alter the weather, although it's more of a side effect rather than the purpose of the weapon. Regardless, she still uses this "function" to kick off her incident.

[[AC:Concerning the romanization of names]]
There are two principal methods for transcribing Japanese names into Latin letters: the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hepburn_romanization Hepburn System]] and the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kunrei-shiki_romanization Kunrei-shiki System]]. In general, [[WordOfGod ZUN]] favored the Hepburn System before ''Phantasmagoria of Flower View'', but changed to the Kunrei-shiki System afterward. This page uses the Hepburn format for the sake of [[SpellMyNameWithAnS argument]], as it is the most widely recognized and makes the pronunciation obvious to English speakers.

[[folder:Suika Ibuki]]
[[quoteright:235:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/th105suika_2064.png]]
::''Tiny Hyakki Yakou''
::'''Suika Ibuki'''
-->''"Your chi can't beat my chi. [[IAmTheNoun I AM chi.]]"''
An oni with the power to manipulate density, which extends to gathering or dispersing emotions and people, along with more destructive applications. She caused the inhabitants of Gensoukyou to have more parties for a while, hoping to attract more of her kind to Gensoukyou and reuinite her people that had been scattered long ago. Currently living in Bhava-Agra (one realm of Heaven) after threatening the inhabitants to allow her to stay there.
!!!Tropes associated with Suika:
* AdaptationDyeJob: Suika's sprites in fighting games represent her with brown hair, however, her artwork shows her with light orange hair. Her sprite in ''Double Spoiler'' confirms that her hair color is more orange than brown. Though, fanworks sometimes depict her as blonde or brunette, depending on the artist's preferences or color judgements.
* {{Badass}}: She tore Tenshi a new one so badly that she had to ''give up a chunk of Heaven to her just to make Suika stop''.
** Turns out Tenshi banked on Suika getting as bored of Heaven's pleasures as herself and would leave rather quickly before anyone noticed, as she gave up that land without telling anyone. Unfortunately for Tenshi, oni have a [[TheThingThatWouldNotLeave much higher appreciation for Bhava-Agra's endless feasts]] than she does.
* BirdRun: Her method of walking normally.
* ChainedByFashion: Her wrists and the back of her hair sports shackles and short chains, and these chains are connected to geometric shapes.
* CuteBruiser: Noticeably younger-looking than most of the cast. Can tear apart mountains with her bare hands.
* CuteGiant: Suika is normally pretty small and adorable, but has the ability to change her size at will. She's still adorable when she's huge, but you're probably not thinking such as you're trying to avoid getting squashed by her!
* DrunkenMaster: She's almost always drunk, and yet a formidable opponent. ZUN even states in her profile that she becomes ''stronger'' the more intoxicated she becomes.
* ExcuseMeWhileIMultitask: Her guarding animation has her ''drinking from her gourd.'' Even more ridiculous is her crouch guard, where she does the same thing ''while lounging.''
* FireBreathingDiner: For one of her attacks in the fighting games, Suika takes a sip from her gourd before spewing out a wave of fire.
* FinalBoss
* GlacierWaif: She could probably move glaciers.
* GrievousBottleyHarm: Her gourd is connected to a chain, which lets Suika use it as an EpicFlail for a few attacks.
* HairDecorations: She wears short chains and a bow in her hair, and also has a bow tied to one of her horns.
* HardDrinkingPartyGirl: She carries a magic gourd of sake that never runs dry. No one has seen her sober.
** Apparently every oni (or at least the ones [[NominalImportance cool enough to be named]]) have an artifact associated with drinking alcohol, hers being the Ibuki Gourd.
* HornedHumanoid
* IntangibleMan: Suika can become mist at will.
* InterfaceScrew: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin "Pandemonium"]], Suika's last spell as the FinalBoss in ''Immaterial and Missing Power'' destroys portions of the game HUD as she takes more and more damage, eventually leading to the near-breakdown of reality itself.
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2gP3J--2-HA "Onigashima in the Fairyland ~ Missing Power"]] and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGlt8rLwWzQ "Broken Moon."]]
* LittleMissSnarker: Jolly most of the time, she nevertheless has harsh comments for everyone in ''Immaterial and Missing Power''. Probably [[JustifiedTrope justified]] since oni are known to hate liars, and as such [[BrutalHonesty she wouldn't believe in sugarcoating her words]].
* MesACrowd: She can make tiny clones of herself, using her power to manipulate density.
* PalsWithJesus: One of the very few people who calls Yukari a friend, having known each other well before the Great Hakurei Barrier was created.
* PaperThinDisguise: In ''Manga/WildAndHornedHermit'', she tries to disguise herself as a sake vendor, only for a barging Reimu to instantly recognize her.
--> '''[[DeadpanSnarker Kasen]]''': [[LampshadeHanging Well, if you have to disguise yourself, you'll have to at least hide your horns.]]
--> '''Suika''': It's cool. [[TemptingFate No one but you has discovered my true identity.]]
* PintsizedPowerhouse: She's officially one of the shortest characters in the series ([[{{Sizeshifter}} at least at her regular height]]), but she's also one of the physically strongest.
* SemanticSuperpower: Controls density. Physical density, like making herself into mist or just really big/small, and things like, say, population density.
* {{Sizeshifter}}: She can also change her size at will, either becoming a [[AttackOfThe50FootWhatever really large oni]] or a really small oni. She can even use her hair to form mini-Suikas. Interestingly enough, at her normal size she's one of the shortest characters in the series.
* SleevesAreForWimps
* StalkerWithoutACrush: She tells everyone in ''Immaterial and Missing Power'' that she's been watching them, so she sometimes gets depicted like this.
* SuperSmoke: Part of her density powers. She's used this form to attack several bystanders in ''Manga/WildAndHornedHermit''.
* TheThingThatWouldNotLeave: Suika pretty much bullied Tenshi into giving up some Heaven real estate. Tenshi thought it would be over quickly as Suika would get as bored of Heaven as she did and leave. ''She was wrong''. To make it worse, that bit of Heaven Suika got? It wasn't Tenshi's. And Tenshi didn't tell anyone about the oni, either.
