Doremy Sweet (ドレミー・スイート Doremī Suīto) is a baku and Ruler of the Dream World.
General Information
Doremy first appeared as the Stage 3 Boss and then as the Extra stage midboss in Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom. She later appears as a playable character in Antinomy of Common Flowers.
Abilities
Doremy's ability is to eat and create dreams. Eating dreams is much like just taking dreams, or stopping them, and possibly includes removing said dreams from memory completely. She is also able to create or craft dreams, which can be done by either moving the character from one dream to another or simply just forming a new dream for the character. She can also enter dreams herself. As someone who manages the dream world, she has a wide knowledge of dreams and can observe anyone's dream inside the dream world. As such, she can also gain knowledge of a character through their dreams alone. She is regarded by Reisen as the most dangerous youkai in the dream world.
Doremy is able to freely go between multiple worlds including Gensokyo, the Moon and Lunar Capital, as well as the Outside World. She also has the ability to clone herself and keep track of experiences and knowledge from each clone. In Antinomy of Common Flowers, she also showed that she could possess certain characters without the use of the perfect possession incident.
Background Information
Name
Her full name is Doremy Sweet (ドレミー・スイート), which implies a western origin. "Doremy" is phonetically similar to "dreamy", and together with her last name, which in itself is a real surname, is a reference to the English expression "sweet dreams". (The dot (・) in the middle of her name is used in foreign names to show where the next word begins, as Japanese doesn't normally use spaces.)
Her name is a reference to the Sanjou route on the Ikoma Cable Line, a group of funicular routes in Nara, Japan, operated by Kintetsu Railway. The route's two cable cars are named "Do-Re-Mi (ドレミ)", which is decorated like an organ, and "Sweet (スイート)", which is decorated like a cake. Coincidentally the same company also operates a second funicular route in Osaka, the Nishi-Shigi Cable Line, which serves Mount Shigi. Mount Shigi was the site of the major backstory events of both Toyosatomimi no Miko and Mononobe no Futo, and Byakuren Hijiri and the Myouren Temple (based on the real-life Chougo-sonshi Buddhist temple).
Design
Doremy has dark blue eyes and hair, and possesses a white tail with a black tuft of fur at the tip. Her outfit consists of a black and white dress, which is covered in black and white orbs of various sizes. She wears a red nightcap, and white socks. In her left hand is a blue book with the letter D printed on the cover, and in her right is a blob of some pink material later confirmed to actually be a dream soul from Wild and Horned Hermit. Her damaged portrait after the battle reveals that she has long hair underneath the nightcap.
In Antinomy of Common Flowers, her nightcap is noticeably longer, reaching her legs.
Story
Games
- Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom
About half a year before the arrival of the protagonists, Doremy was directed by Sagume Kishin to recreate the Lunar Capital in the dream world. The purpose was to discretely redirect all people heading to the Lunar Capital, to the Capital within the dream world instead in order to hide the true Lunar Capital on the moon. However, Doremy viewed this as troublesome and had no intention to always follow through.
When the protagonists arrived about 6 months later, Doremy saw this as an opportunity as a little payback and thus, after giving a small warning, sent them to where they really wanted, the true Lunar Capital. Doremy later returns in the extra stage in an I told you so manner in regards to the warnings she had given to the protagonists.
Literature
- Alternative Facts in Eastern Utopia
Aya Shameimaru investigates ominous occurrences where people are reporting having common dreams after using Doremy's "Sweet Sleep Pillow". These dreams apparently were all about this same figure, Doremy, asking questions about the quality of the pillow in a sort of survey within their dreams. The pillow itself is said to have become very popular among humans as well as fairies. The pillows themselves have frills along the edges and are covered with Malayan (Asian) tapirs wearing hats similar to Doremy's.
Relationships
While speaking to Reimu, Doremy spoke with direct recognition unlike her conversation with the rest of the protagonists during the events of Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom

Additional Information
- The design of her outfit may be a reference to the body of the Malayan (Asian) tapir, which shares the name baku with the youkai in folklore. The Malayan tapir has a black upper body, white lower body, and trunk, which might be represented in Doremy's dichromatic dress and long hat, respectively.

If one uses the dream world skillfully, they can go anywhere and become anything at all. Under Sagume's orders, she recreated the Lunar Capital within a dream. However, it seems that this plan was bothersome to her, and she didn't feel like playing along. It was then that a visitor to the Dream World arrived. The People of the Moon hate humans' impurity. She sent the human off to the true Lunar Capital, just as they desired. |
