Mamizou Futatsuiwa

Mamizou first appeared as the Extra stage boss of Ten Desires. She then appeared as a playable character of Hopeless Masquerade, she was a 6th and 8th Day Boss of Impossible Spell Card and a Playable Character in Urban Legend in Limbo and Antinomy of Common Flowers. She is a recurring character in Forbidden Scrollery. She is a bake-danuki of proper lineage, and a youkai of the Outside World who has been called over by Nue Houjuu (by her own judgement) as a means of resistance since the Saint who sings of youkai extermination, Toyosatomimi no Miko, revived. After the quarrel, she started living in the Myouren Temple. She was originally from Sado along with the humans there, and before the events of Ten Desires' Extra stage, passed through the Great Hakurei Barrier to enter Gensokyo. Mamizou, proud of her race's esteem, is good natured, albeit with a mischievous streak. She speaks the way an old lady might, and occasionally squints as if she was nearsighted. She isn't one to take a grudge, but as Marisa Kirisame in her extra stage shows she has her limits of niceness. She does enjoy pulling pranks on humans and watching them be confused and flustered. Perhaps because in the latter half of Ten Desires, there were many characters who engage in things while they actually had ulterior motives, in one part, it can be said "Mamizou is the conscience of this game." In the game, she talked in a light friendly way, and because the way she spoke indicated "training", it seems that she currently is very confident in her power as a youkai. Her first person pronoun is "washi" (儂), which is entirely an old person's way of speaking. Nevertheless, this seems to be her way of saying things, and not so much because a belief of having aged. Since the bake-danuki who showed up in Oriental Sacred Place also used "washi", it might just be that all tanuki use old people's way of speaking. Despite being brought in as a 'trump card', she is noted as being friendly with humans, and has been seen taking on the form of a human while in the Human Village. According to the omake text of Ten Desires, "sometimes she'd trick them, but she'd also lend money to the poor and worked diligently on any task she was given, so she integrated well into human society", showing that she is reliable and kind at heart. Though she is seen in the Human Village often in human form, Symposium of Post-mysticism has stated that she does not make an effort to hide her tail, considering it a mark of her high status. However, she doesn't get along with kitsune, and in Symposium of Post-mysticism, Mamizou says that Sado is a country entirely of bake-danuki, and not a single fox can be found there. It's said that if she encounters one, there will be trouble.
