Changes from Touhou RP: Gensokyo Reloaded

 * Spirit mechanic now known as the Focus mechanic, to avoid confusion with the game's new Spirit Meter mechanic
 * Insightful Sword: is now Youmu's Unique Skill. Now functions as a Parry instead of a Counter.
 * Slash of Life and Death: Command changed to
 * New Special: Lotus Stance Cut
 * New Spellcard: "Matsuyuri-Reflecting Satellite Slash" (, Shinto Last Word)
 * Removed Specials: Netherworld Reflection Slash
 * Removed Spellcards: "Secret of Life and Death"

Pros

 * Only character with a parry mechanic
 * Has a good pressure game
 * Becomes extremely dangerous at Level 3 Focus
 * Very good ground mobility
 * Excellent Normals & Command Normals at higher Focus levels
 * Level 1 Spellcards are excellent tools for building Focus levels

Cons

 * Very low health
 * Takes effort to build Focus meter, which becomes easier to lose at higher levels
 * Is somewhat forced to play defensively early in the match due to most of her Normals starting off weak or mediocre
 * Backdashing heavily penalizes her Focus meter

Trivia

 * Unlike other characters, Youmu gains an afterimage effect during Taoism's Tao Focus. This is a nod to her Spellcard "Secret of Life and Death" from Gensokyo Reloaded.
