marisa

Based on Kirisame Marisa, secondary protagonist of Touhou Project. Wears a large black witch's hat over blonde hair, with a ribboned braid on their left side, and most commonly has black or red bean filling.

One of the two most common types of yukkuri along with Reimus, who are also their most common partners. Marisas tend to be more masculine, bragging about their own strength ("The great Marisa!") and taking the "father" role in many pairings. Marisas will often "hunt" for their families by searching for bugs, plants, trash and other edibles and carrying them home in their large hats. They will often take up a small stick or other suitable object as a "Mister Excalibur" and use it to fight or hunt, and pet Marisas will sometimes be given toy versions of the real Marisa's broom or mini-hakkero to play with.

Like the real Marisa, they often end their sentences with "da ze", or sometimes "no ze" or "nano ze". This trait is sometimes exaggerated in shithead Marisas, and koyukkuri Marisas usually slur the phrase as "da je" or "nano je".

Particularly fat, shithead Marisas are sometimes known as Bawizas. Some Marisas can safely cross water by riding in their hats like boats, known as Aquatic Marisas. There are also several Marisa subspecies with unique accessories, including the comfy Kotatsu Marisa, slow and aquatic Shell Marisa, wooly Sheep Marisa and perhaps more.
