Maribel canonically travels back in time so she's probably a precursor / vessel for Yukari.

She even leaves a note in Gensokyo several centuries prior to present day, which is recorded in PMiSS.

Since Lafcadio Hearn becomes Koizumi Yakumo and not the other way around, it is probable that Maribel is earlier than Yukari.

Fair enough. I am definitely going the computer-intelligence route with Yukari. Eirin has the most humanlike intelligence in the universe bar-none being the heavenly god of knowledge and all.

The only way she could likely be outdone is with supreme amounts of raw calculation. Which Yukari has been shown to possess multiple times, with even her lackey able to compute the width of the sanzu and herself able to compute the depth of Avicii and the collision of astronomical bodies.

I think the "creature in the gap" is indeed a slightly crappier version of the Laplace demon, and it is referred to as the Laplace demon in a spellcard (and said Yukari can see with those eyes).

If you're unfamiliar, the Laplace demon uses mathematics + information to be able to know the past and future. The "real" one knows with 100% certainty where every atom in the universe will be in a trillion years, so Yukari's can't be that good.

But even a nerfed version of it would allow Yukari to know people's actions way ahead of time, to a high degree of certainty.

In my view, she is the sukima youkai who wants mysteriousness (body we see), merged with the computational power of the Laplace demon (eyes in the gap). Both parts of her surface at different times.

Opinions on Yukari 2?

Will they form an unstoppable party team?

Literally only Lunarians and traitors would say bad things about the magnificent Yukari. She is critical to Gensokyo's very existence and indeed, its creation as well.

If you like the fact that Gensokyo has lots of youkai, you have Yukari's Fantasy-Reality barrier to thank.

Yukari/Okina/???? is a trinity being - Youkai, God, and human?
