Yuugi is an oni. Like other oni, she's ridiculously strong and likes strong people. Also like other oni, she drinks heavily and enjoys raising a ruckus. She, along with Suika, was one of four particularly feared oni long ago. She rushes off to meet an intruder in the underground Ancient City, once part of Hell, and, impressed by their strength, agrees to lead them to the Palace of Earth Spirits if they'll fight her.

Fun Facts

  • Yuugi Hoshiguma's name's characters mean Star (星) Bear (熊) Bravery (勇) Ritual (儀).
  • In the legend of Shuten Douji, a particularly vicious oni who lived atop Mt. Ooeyama, one of Shuten Douji's four strongman demons was named Hoshiguma Douji.
  • There was once a post on the Touhou Imageboard explaining why one can't judge characters' power levels from how powerful they are in game. The whole post was quite humorous because of its fairly bad grammar and typos, but the most amusing and memorable line was "SA : Yuugi only playing around woth you, her sake NOT EVEN DROP". With help from a comic (Most of the text from the post can also be found in that link) by Doyora, this became a meme among Western fans.
  • Yuugi Hoshiguma is thus far the only boss who stays around after her defeat, and remains in front of the player throughout the end of the stage, unless you count Mystia Lorelei, who begins the end-of-stage battle immediately after the "mid-boss" fight.

Stage 3 boss The Rumored Unnatural Phenomenon

Yuugi Hoshiguma

Species: Oni
Ability: power to control supernatural phenomena

One of the oni who, together with Suika, was called the Four Devas of the Mountains.
She now lives in the Ancient City. The Ancient City was once part of Hell, but it was cast aside
during the downsizing of Hell.

Various youkai live here, though the oni are the most representative group among them all.
The oni left the overworld voluntarily when humans began to shun them, and built up a new
society on Hell's excess plots of land.

The oni were proactive in accepting even those youkai who have become hated in the overworld.
The youkai from above, who felt out of place and in danger, accepted their control over the underground on one condition.

That condition was to seal the evil spirits of hell. In return, the youkai from the overworld promised not to enter the underground city.

The oni have now cut off all communication with the overworld, and have settled into a new society completely unknown to humans.

As one would expect from an oni, Yuugi enjoys every day by drinking and raising a ruckus.
When she heard some strong humans had appeared, she rushed out, drink in hand, to see what was going on, but ...
