Following on the heels of ''[[Embodiment of Scarlet Devil]]'', ''Perfect Cherry Blossom'' was created with the same goals in mind - high speed danmaku, patterned after somewhat abstract concepts. The theme this time around revolves around the [[Netherworld]], and the extra stages also deal a little bit with the Great Hakurei Border and the concept of a "spiriting away", though these are not discussed in very much detail, as the dialogue remains very light.

The name "youyoumu" implies some sort of mysterious dream. 妖々, taken to mean "ghastly", is possibly referring to the spirits of the Netherworld, including [[Youmu Konpaku]] and [[Yuyuko Saigyouji]], the first of which contains the kanji 妖 in her name. It can also be a reference to the [[Saigyou Ayakashi]], which also contains the character. "Perfect Cherry Blossom" is referring to Yuyuko's end goal to force the [[Saigyou Ayakashi]] to fully bloom by collecting the essence of springtime. Also, on the jewel case, the word ''Ghastly'' is misspelled as ''Ghastry'' in what would be the japanese pronounciation.
