Origin |
Nitori Kawashiro is a kappa from Touhou Project, having first appeared in Mountain of Faith as the stage 3 boss, then going on to make later appearances as a supporting character during Marisa Kirisame's route in Subterranean Animism and as a playable character in both Hopeless Masquerade and Urban Legend in Limbo.
Nitori is a shy kappa and will run away if she's alone and sees a human, but is often cheerful while in the presence of other kappa. Like most kappa in Gensokyo, Nitori is an engineer that has the natural ability to control water and a particular fondness for cucumbers, ans she is often carrying many small objects and devices in her backpack. Nitori has a fondness for human technology that makes its way into Gensokyo, even going as far as to study their inner mechanisms and then reverse-engineering her own technology derived from them; it is because of her fondness for technology that she is often depicted as the most technologically advanced individual in Gensokyo, even amongst her fellow kappa,
In M.U.G.E.N, Nitori has been made by various creators, including Minoo. Minoo's version was edited by SpaceMouse. Minoo also made a special version of Nitori known as Freedom Nitori, inspired from the Gundam series.
Minoo's second version[]
This version of Nitori uses custom sprites. Her gameplay is unusual in that she uses only two buttons for melee attacks and the other buttons for either projectiles or Hypers, like Minoo's other Touhou characters.
