	博麗　霊夢 Reimu Hakurei	Reimu Hakurei
Yuyuko	さあ、これを見てもそんな台詞を 吐けるかしら？	Well, I wonder if you'll still be able to say that after seeing this?
	Weather changes to Snowing
Reimu	え？ ちょっとちょっと！	Wha? Hold on, hold on!
Yuyuko	さあ、暑い夏のある世界とはおさらばよ	And thus, bid farewell to the hot and sunny summer world.

Reimu	どうやって雪を降らせたのかしら？ 何だか判らないけど恐ろしい……	How did you make snow fall here? I can't make sense of anything, it's horrifying....
	Reimu Hakurei DEFEATED
Yuyuko	涼しくなったかしら？	Have you cooled off now?
Reimu	寒いってばさー	But it's freezing cold nowー
Yuyuko	それは良かったわ 少し頭を冷やせば冷静で楽しい夏が 過ごせるでしょう	That's good. If your head cools off, perhaps you can coolly get through an enjoyable summer.

Stage 2

	朝寝坊の宵っ張り 雪	Late Riser Stays up Snowing
	BGM: 冷吟閑酔	BGM: Drunk as I Like

Yuyuko	おはようございます	Good morning.
	霧雨　魔理沙 Marisa Kirisame	Marisa Kirisame
Marisa	やっちまった～ 寝過ぎたと思ったが…… まさか冬になるまで目が覚めないとはな	Oh nooo... I thought I overslept a little, but... I can't believe I slept in all the way until winter.
Yuyuko	あらあら、お憑かれの様子ね	Oh dear, you look as if you were possessed. [This phrase is normally written as "お疲れ" (otsukare, tiredness), but a pun is used jokingly here to use "憑かれる" (tsukareru, to be possessed)].
Marisa	憑かれてないぜ	I'm not possessed.
Yuyuko	では憑かれましょう	Then let's possess you.
Marisa	止めてくれー もう頭が混乱して何が何だか！	Stop it alreadyー You're confusing me!
	BGM: 香る樹葉花	BGM: Fragrant Plants
	If Player loses
Marisa	うわー今日は何月何日？ 一体何がどうなったんだ？	Whaaa, what's the date today? What the heck is happening?
	Marisa Kirisame DEFEATED
Yuyuko	涼しくなったでしょう？	It's cooler now, isn't it?
Marisa	え？　な、夏だよな？　今	Eh? Is it summer? Now?
Yuyuko	こんなに雪が降っても冷静になれないの？	How weird. Can't you keep your cool even with this snow falling around?
Marisa	なれるもんか！	It'd be weird if I could!

Stage 3

	自由に死ぬ 雪	Die Freely Snowing
	BGM: 日常坐臥	BGM: Usual Days
Yuyuko	山には雪が一番美しい	Mountains are at their prettiest when covered with snow.
	Komachi Onozuka ENTERS
Komachi	おや、これはこれは西行寺の……	Oh? Would this by any chance be the Saigyouji...
Yuyuko	あらどうも この河は三途の河じゃないわよ？	Oh greetings. But this river isn't the Sanzu River, is it?
	小野塚　小町 Komachi Onozuka	Komachi Onozuka
Komachi	ギクッ まあそういう事もままありますわなぁ って、何だ？ 雪だって？	Ack... Ah well, I guess that's right, but anyway... ...What? It's snowing?
Yuyuko	世の中にはまだまだ不思議がいっぱいです	The world is full of strange things.
Komachi	って、貴方が雪を降らせてるんじゃ？	In other words, you're making it snow?
Yuyuko	そうですが何か	I suppose so. What about it?
Komachi	やっぱり変わったお方だ そうでも無ければ冥界の管理なんて 出来ないって事かもねぇ	You're really a very peculiar lady. But I guess if that wasn't the case, perhaps it would be difficult for you to manage the netherworld.
Yuyuko	で、この河は三途の河(あなたのしごとば)じゃないわよ？	And, this river isn't your workplace, is it?
	BGM: 踊る水飛沫	BGM: Dancing Water Spray
	If Player loses
Komachi	判りました判りました 仕事に戻りますよ でも、その雪の秘密はいつか教えて下さいね	I understand, I understand. I'm going back to work. But please teach me how to make snow like that sometime.
	Komachi Onozuka DEFEATED
Yuyuko	冷静になれば天気を変える事だって簡単です	If you can keep a cool head, it's easy to change the weather.
Komachi	いやぁ、流石にそんな真似は出来ないねぇ	Uhh, I don't think it's that simple to get your own way...
Yuyuko	ただ、好きな天気に変える為にはちょっとだけ 工夫が必要ですわ	However, in order to change the weather to something you prefer, a little extra work is needed.

Stage 4

	真夏の冬山 雪	Midsummer's Winter Mountain Snowing
	BGM: 日常坐臥	BGM: Usual Days
Yuyuko	ここも雪で涼しくしましょう	Let's cool this place with snow too.
	Weather changes to Tempest
	Aya Shameimaru ENTERS
Aya	あれ？ 何故貴方がここに？	Huh? Why are you here?
Yuyuko	あやや、 雪が……	Ayaya, the snow...
Aya	何があったのか判りませんが……	I don't really understand what's going on, but...
	射命丸　文 Aya Shameimaru	Aya Shameimaru
Aya	何人たりとも入山禁止です	Nobody is allowed to enter the mountain.
Yuyuko	おやおや、雪が吹き飛ばされてしまいました	Oh dear, the snow got blown away.
Aya	雪？	Snow?
Yuyuko	ええ、山を魅力的に変える私の雪が	Yes, the mountain-beautifying snow of mine.
	BGM: 嘲りの遊戯	BGM: Ridiculous Game
	If Player loses
Aya	さあ、帰って帰って 貴方みたいな方が他の誰かに会ったら 面倒な事になりそうだから	Now, go. If people like you meet someone else here something bad might happen.
	Aya Shameimaru DEFEATED
Yuyuko	残念、私の力不足ね	Regrettably, my power is insufficient.
Aya	はい？	I guess?
Yuyuko	私の儚い雪では貴方の嵐には勝てないわ	My ephemeral snow cannot defeat your tempest.
Aya	いえ、負けました	No, I lost...
Yuyuko	もっと、意識を捨てないと、ね	It seems that I need to throw the thought away. [Yuyuko' aim is Hisouten or Spere of Non-Perception, where Tenshi lives.]

Stage 5

	異変の兆し 気質	Disaster's Omen Clear
	BGM: 雲外蒼天	BGM: Skies Beyond the Clouds
Yuyuko	流石に雲の中は寒いわー ここは一つ、頑張って快晴でも……	As expected, it's cold inside the clouds. There isn't a clear spot anywhere...
	Iku Nagae ENTERS
Iku	緋色の雲が出来はじめている 雲の動向に気を付けろ 数十年ぶりに悲劇の再来か	The scarlet clouds are forming again. Take notice of the movement of the clouds. The return of the disaster after several decades is coming.
Yuyuko	おや、貴方はもしや……	Oh, aren't you...
	永江 衣玖 Iku Nagae	Iku Nagae
Iku	そう、龍宮の使いです	Yes, I'm the messenger from the dragon palace.
Yuyuko	あの蒲焼きや白焼きで有名な	...famously grilled in soy-sauce, or just grilled plain... [In Japan, eel is usually eaten as Kabayaki or Shiroyaki (white-grilled).]
Iku	きっと違いますがね	Most certainly not.
Yuyuko	何？ 地震でも起こるのかしら？	What? Is an earthquake going to happen? [In Japan, a catfish was believed to cause earthquakes.]
Iku	まだ判りませんが要観察って処です	I'm not sure, but we are now investigating the matter.
Yuyuko	あらあら、しょうがないわねぇ 家の補強でもしておきましょう	Oh dear, I guess it can't be helped. Perhaps it's time to reinforce the house.
Iku	貴方は何者です？	Who are you anyway?
Yuyuko	皆に涼しさを分けてまわる しがない亡霊なのです	I'm just a wandering ghost that brings coolness to everyone. [This is a pun of shiganai" (insignificant, only) and shi ga nai" (there is no death).]
Iku	亡霊？	A ghost?
	BGM: 黒い海に紅く ～ Legendary Fish	BGM: Crimson in the Black Sea ~ Legendary Fish
Iku	ははーん、この雲の上は天界があります 天界まで自分で成仏に来たって？ 成仏にはいくつもの試練がありますが…… 貴方はそれを越えられる？	Aha, above these clouds is the realm of heaven. I suppose you've come by yourself to enter nirvana? But there are many trials before one can enter nirvana. Can you overcome them?
	If Player loses
Iku	まだまだね もっと非想の境地を見せないと 天人にはなれないわ	You're not there yet. If you can't enter the realm of thoughtlessness you cannot become a celestial.
	Iku Nagae DEFEATED
Yuyuko	さて、と、次は天界ねー	And now, next, the Heavens.
Iku	強いですねぇ 貴方なら成仏しても大丈夫な気がします	You're really strong. I don't think you'll have any trouble entering nirvana.
Yuyuko	あら残念 まだ未練たらたらですわ	Oh, I'm sorry, but I can't. I still have lots of lingering attachments to this world.

Final Stage

	非想天 気質	Thoughtless Heaven Clear
	BGM: 天衣無縫	BGM: Flawless Clothing of the Celestials
Yuyuko	天界は冥界よりも広い 天界といっても、いくつもの世界に別れています ここは……非想天(ひそうてん)かしら？	Heaven is even larger than the Netherworld. It's called Heaven, but they are separated like many different worlds. This must be... the thoughtless heaven (Hisouten)?
Tenshi	天地の道は 極まれば則ち反(かえ)り	The way of the heavens and earth reverses at the extremes.
	Tenshi Hinanawi ENTERS
Tenshi	盈(み)つれば則ち損ず！ 夏の暑さも、時間が経てば涼しくなり そして冬になるのです	And breaks at the fullest! Even the warmth of summer, with the passing of time, will cool and turn into winter. [Tenshi refers to Huainanzi's sentence of tenth (or seventh) paragraph of the twentieth volume, "天地之道，極則反，盈則損。" (original text). The whole part says "things will change with time passing, so anything the saint, i.e. the governor, does cannot be neither old style and newstyle. for the purpose of accomodating the current issue in each era". Tenshi is making sarcastic remark for Yuyuko leading untimely snow to Heaven, who is out of the order of the world with staying at the Netherworld in her death.]
	Tenshi Hinanawi	Tenshi Hinanawi
Tenshi	貴方は何故夏に雪を降らす？	Why are you making it snow in the middle of summer?
Yuyuko	同じ雪でも、夏の方が数倍魅力的だからです	Snow in summer is many more times more charming than the same snow in winter.
Tenshi	しかし、どうやって雪を？	But... how are you making it snow?
Yuyuko	さあね 人間、精進すれば何だって出来るって事ね そう、心を澄ませ、何も考えずに自由に生きる いや 私は死んでいたわね	Well, see, humans, with enough diligence, can do anything. Yes, compose your heart and free yourself from all thought and you can live freely. That is, as a manner of speaking. But I'm dead. [The subtitle of Yuyuko's third stage is "die freely".]
Tenshi	あはははは 降参降参、まさかそんなに早く見つかるなんてね そう、地上にもこんな奴がいたなんて	Ahahahaha. I yield, I yield. How did you find out so quickly? Wow, I never guessed there were people like you living on the ground.
Yuyuko	？？ 何の話？	? What are you saying?
Tenshi	貴方の目的は、私を倒して天気を元に戻す って事でしょ？	Your purpose here is to defeat me and return the weather to normal. Isn't it?
Yuyuko	いやいや、とんでもない まだ戻されても困るわ	No, no, absolutely not. If it returned to normal so quickly, I'd be quite vexed.
	BGM: 有頂天変 ～ Wonderful Heaven	BGM: Catastrophe in Bhavaagra ~ Wonderful Heaven
Tenshi	え？	Eh?
Yuyuko	折角の夏の雪 もっと楽しんでからでも良いじゃない	After all that effort invested in making this summer snow, wouldn't it be better to enjoy it for a bit longer?
Tenshi	何と…… もしかして馬鹿にされているのかしら？	Wha... Am I being looked down as a fool?
Yuyuko	いえいえそんな……有頂天の貴方にそんな事	No, no... I wouldn't do that to your Highness. ["有頂天" (Bhavaagra, Summit of the existent world) is another word of "非想天" (Hisouten, Sphere of non-perception), so Yuyuko seems to praise Tenshi's nobleness. But common meaning of the word is "very haughty attitude as if s/he were on the top of the world.]
Tenshi	まあいいや お前は、これから起こるだろう地上の者どもとの 戦いの前座を務めて貰う！	Well, whatever. You shall be the first in the line of the earth-dwellers, so, accept the opening performance of this battle!
	Tenshi Hinanawi COLLAPSES
	Final Spell ～ Weather changes to Evening Sky
	BGM: 幼心地の有頂天	BGM: Bhavaagra As Seen Through a Child's Mind
	If Player loses
Tenshi	地上の奴らも思ったより強いのね こりゃあ気を引き締めないとね	The earth-dwellers are stronger than I've thought. I must rein in the spirits more.
	Tenshi Hinanawi DEFEATED
	Yuyuko Ending
