In the Touhou Project, the Big Four of the Mountain (山の四天王) are thought to be based on the four subordinates of Shuten-doji.

The ones on whom the big four are based, Shuten-doji, his deputy Ibaraki-doji, and the other three "kuma-doji" subordinates of the "big four," Hoshikuma-doji, Torakuma-doji, and Kanakuma-doji, are occasionally referred to as the "big four" (四天王) among the subordinates of Shuten-doji (although this term does not include Shuten-doji himself).[1]

There are currently two characters who are confirmed to be among the big four: Suika Ibuki and Yuugi Hoshiguma (this is different from the "big four" in the legends since Suika Ibuki is probably based on Shuten-doji). Kasen Ibaraki is speculated to be the third member of this group, as she is probably based on one of Shuten Douji's subordinates, among other things.
