* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Being forced to remember what happened to her friend once her seal breaks does ''not'' make her happy.
Added DiffLines:
* YouCantFightFate: As a flesh-eating youkai, Rumia needs to eat humans else she ends up starving to death. She's able to hold off this urge in the time spent with the Reimu and her mother, but her hunger becomes too much for her and she has to leave them for their safety.

[[caption-width-right:350:[[labelnote:Click here to her as a teenager]]https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/or_reimu_teen.png[[/labelnote]]]]
The daughter of the Hakurei Miko, an adorably kind and sweet-hearted child who seems to want to play with any new person she comes across. She has an especially close bond with Rumia.
In ''Touhou Reireimu'', she's now a teenager working as the current Hakurei Miko. Having developed a rather rude and lazy attitude, deep down she's still as kind-hearted as ever.
----
* CheerfulChild: ''And how!''
* HappilyAdopted: A flashback reveals that Reimu was actually an orphan adopted by the previous Hakurei Miko after a youkai attack.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Despite how rude and crabby she acts as a teenager, she's still just as kind as she was when she was a child, especially towards youkai like Rumia.
* LaserGuidedAmnesia: Has her memories of her mother wiped by Yukari after her mother's death so that she wouldn't be traumatized by it.
* ThouShaltNotKill: Though she tried not to admit it, Reimu couldn't get into her role as a youkai exterminator because she didn't feel comfortable with the idea of having to kill others. This is what ultimately pushes her to create the Spell Card System as a way to resolve incidents with youkai non-lethally.
* {{Tsundere}}: Of the harsh variety: Reimu may seem mean-spirited towards others, in reality she's actually very nice and kind, although she attempts to hide this.
* UsedToBeASweetChild: Once a very kind and loving child, as the Hakurei Miko she's very rude towards others.

[[caption-width-right:350:[[labelnote:Click here to her as a child]]https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/or_rumia_child.png[[/labelnote]]]]
A man-eating darkness youkai once known for her voracious appetite for humans. After being defeated by the Hakurei Miko, she ends up befriending and living with her, often looking after her daughter while she goes to do her job.
In ''Touhou Reireimu'', as a result of a previous incident, she's been transformed into a child youkai.
----
* BigEater: Her appetite for humans is so great that in a flashback, she's seen sitting on [[NothingButSkulls a large pile of human skulls]]. According to her, no matter how much she eats, her hunger can never be sated.
-->''"Nothing satisfies me. I eat and eat and eat and eat... But no matter how much I eat, I never feel satisfied."''
* BiteOfAffection: As a child, she has a habit of biting Reimu as a way to show affection.
* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: Befriends Reimu and her mother when the former offers half of her rice ball to her while she's bound up and starving.
* DefeatEqualsFriendship: While it doesn't happen right away, her defeat at the hands of Reimu's mother kickstarts her eventual friendship with her and her daughter.
* EatBrainForMemories: As a result of devouring the Hakurei Miko, she absorbed all her memories. Seeing how the humans treated her friend is what drives Rumia to want to destroy all of Gensokyo.
* ImAHumanitarian: As a man-eating youkai, she primarily feeds on humans. Though her feeding eventually reaches a point where Yukari decides to confront her and tell her to stop.
* MamaBear: After losing Reimu in Yuuka's flower field, upon hearing her scream, Rumia wastes no time running to her to see if she's safe. Luckily for her, Yuuka was simply tickling the child.
* ParentalSubstitute: Acts like a second mother towards Reimu and seems to spend more time raising her, at one point humorously berating Reimu's ''actual mother'' for failing to raise Reimu as a proper woman.
-->''"Waahh, at this rate Reimu's going to grow up to be a money grubbing alcoholic!"''
* RepressedMemories: Her memories of the Hakurei Miko and Reimu are kept sealed by her ribbon. It breaking and subsequent flooding of memories kickstarts the events of ''Reireimu''.
* SealedEvilInACan: The ribbon she wears as a child not only keeps her in her child state but also prevents her from remembering her past life.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: Her plan to destroy all of Gensokyo comes from her desire to end the cycle of humans and youkai killing each other, something she believes will avenge the Hakurei Miko.
