Koakuma is a minor character from Touhou Project, first appearing as the stage 4 Mid-boss of Embodiment of Scarlet Devil.
Much of Koakuma's existence remains a mystery, as Koakuma is not her name, but rather the name of her species, implying that there may be more than one of her kind in existence. What is known is that there is at least one specimen of Koakuma seen around the library of the Scarlet Devil Mansion as Patchouli Knowledge's assistant and library guardian; she fulfills the latter role in Embodiment of Scarlet Devil when the protagonist enters the library and she decides to attack them under the justification that they were an intruder.
In M.U.G.E.N, Koakuma has been made by various creators.
Daniel9999999's version[]
Among the various books in Patchouli's library, the one book Koakuma came across was an old 90's game guide for Clayfighter 63⅓. Apparently Patchouli had an old subscription to Nintendo Power, since Koa decided to incorporate game mechanics of both this game and Donkey Kong Country into her fighting style as well. Whatever unethical cloning experiments went on under Remilia's lordship, only this deranged specimen knows.
Midori Margatroid's version[]
Made specifically for inclusion in Touhou: Gensokyo Reloaded, the artist formerly known as Daniel9999999 gives another shot at the little devil. While at first glance her Normals seem to share much in common with Remilia and Flandre, her multiple zoning tools combined with the deceptive Trickster Devil attack allow her to stand out on her own and easily punish an opponent for their mistakes while maintaining pressure.
