* SopranoAndGravel: "Scarlet Sky" uses smooth vocals to represent Reimu and harsh vocals to represent the various youkai of the Scarlet Devil Mansion, though both the smooth and harsh vocalists are women, rather than the more common male/female arrangement. Additionally, presumably as to preserve the ambiguity of Sakuya's nature, her fight is sung entirely from Reimu's perspective.
