Species: Youkai Beast (Nine-tailed Fox) Threat Level: High Human Friendship Level: Normal Main Activity Area: Anywhere Appearance: She has blonde hair in a short bob and golden eyes. On her head, she wears a ZUN hat with two horn-like points. Her fox ears are tucked inside these points, though the interior is mostly hollow (as seen in the damaged portrait after defeating her in "Perfect Cherry Blossom"). Her clothing resembles that of an ancient Taoist priest, consisting of a loose, long-sleeved long skirt covered by a blue apron-like garment. She wears Chinese-style clothing because her master, Yukari, wears Chinese-style combat gear. Nine golden fox tails extend in a fan shape from her waist. She often poses with her arms hidden in opposite sleeves, a style common among ancient Chinese officials. She is fairly tall, though officially shorter than Yukari. In the manga versions, the artists generally depict her as shorter than Yukari Yakumo but roughly the same height as Reimu Hakurei.
