Nemuno Sakata (坂田 ネムノ Sakata Nemuno) is a yamanba who lives alone on the Youkai Mountain.
General Information
Nemuno appeared as the Stage 2 midboss and Boss in Hidden Star in Four Seasons.
Personality
Nemuno Sakata is a reclusive youkai who lives independently on Youkai Mountain. She has no interest in the world at large. Her way of living is very primitive, even by Gensokyo’s standards. She doesn't like trespassers and will attempt to drive away any intruder she comes across, be it human or youkai.
However, she does have a benevolent side to her. She likes strong people. In Hidden Star in Four Seasons, she became more negotiable after fighting the protagonist. In Reimu’s scenario in particular, Nemuno tries to invite Reimu for some tea.
Abilities
- Ability to create sanctuaries
Background Information
Name
Her full name is Nemuno Sakata (坂田 ネムノ). The characters for Sakata (坂田) are spelled with saka (坂) "hill, incline, slope", and ta (田) "rice field". Her surname Sakata (坂田) is a reference to Sakata no Kintoki (坂田 金時) a child of superhuman strength who was raised by a Yamanba. He was first known as Kintarō (金太郎 lit. Golden boy) but after catching Shuten-dōji he became a loyal follower of Minamoto no Yorimitsu and changed his name to Sakata no Kintoki.
Design
Nemuno has red eyes and wavy waist-length grey hair that falls down naturally in a somewhat ragged fashion. She wears blue detatched sleeves and a knee-length three colored dress, resembling a one-shoulder tunic, that wraps over her left shoulder yet still leaves both shoulders bare. Her dress has three color regions - yellow/gold on top, orange in the middle, and red on the bottom, all divided in a nonparallel manner by ragged white trim. The bottom is perforated with two and a half staggered rings of diamond-shaped holes and her detached sleeves bear a similar design. Nemuno wields a giant cleaver with a red bow at the front of the handle. She does not wear any footwear.
Story
