Sanae Kochiya (東風谷 早苗 Kochiya Sanae) ist ein Mensch, aber auch eine entfernte Verwandte der Göttin Suwako Moriya. Ihre Rolle am Moriya-Schrein ist die einer Schreinjungfer, aber mit ihrer Kraft ist sie selbst so etwas wie eine Göttin geworden.
Inhaltsverzeichnis
Allgemeines[Bearbeiten]
Sanae was first introduced in Mountain of Faith as the stage 5 boss, reappeared as the extra stage of Subterranean Animism and later became a playable character in Undefined Fantastic Object, Touhou Hisoutensoku, Ten Desires and Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom. She is a secondary character in the comic Wild and Horned Hermit.
Persönlichkeit[Bearbeiten]
Sanae is confident, energetic and dutiful, sometimes too much so, and tends to get carried away easily or have trouble thinking for herself. She also appears to be something of a geek, making references to popular culture and having knowledge of advanced scientific concepts. As someone who grew up in the Outside World, much of Gensokyo seems strange and novel to her; she finds unusually great fun in exterminating youkai and solving incidents, seeming to view herself as the hero of a fantasy novel or video game. Multiple characters have noted that Sanae's dismissive attitude towards youkai and youkai power makes her too much like a youkai herself.[1] The simple fact that she is adjusting to life in Gensokyo makes her an extremely rare case.
Tätigkeit[Bearbeiten]
Sanae's occupation as a Wind Priestess means to be the priest to worship the god of wind. However, while causing miracles of wind and rain to come about through a secret technique with many secrets, since she herself is treated to the same level as gods, and has become one who gathers faith, she is also a living god. In Mountain of Faith, just in front of Reimu Hakurei, she said about herself, "I guess you could call me something like a Shrine Maiden", indicating that there's a chance that she's different from a Shrine Maiden, but in the works, she is fundamentally treated as a Shrine Maiden the same way Reimu is. Furthermore, since Sanae is a "god" while at the same time being a "human", even if she loses all her faith, she can continue to live as a human.
Fähigkeiten[Bearbeiten]
- Fähigkeit Wunder zu bewirken
Sanae is capable of invoking miracles through her godly heritage, and many of her spell cards are themed after miracles of various religions or odd events. It's mainly the manipulation of weather, and also seems to use it in prayers for rain. The "miracles" that she can invoke are not related to good or bad fortune – they are merely events that have a very low chance of occurring. Before invoking a miracle, she needs time to prepare it proportional to how unlikely the miracle is. Simple ones can be invoked with a single word, while the most complex can take days.
- Fähigkeiten als Schreinjungfer
Sanae is a shrine maiden, but of a different type to Reimu Hakurei. Like Reimu she is capable of summoning gods, granting her some of their powers; while she relies on this ability much more than Reimu, she is only capable of summoning her patrons: Kanako Yasaka and Suwako Moriya.
Charakterkonzept[Bearbeiten]

Name und Herkunft[Bearbeiten]
Sanaes voller Name lautet Sanae Kochiya (東風谷 早苗). Die Zeichen ihres Vornamen Sanae (早苗) können als "Reissetzling" oder "junger Setzling" übersetzt werden und ihren Nachnamen Kochiya (東風谷) kann als "Ostwind Tal" übersetzt werden. In ihrem Namen wird dasselbe Zeichen für Osten (東 verwendet wie in Touhou (東方), und dasselbe Zeichen für Wind (風) wie im Originaltitel von Mountain of Faith (風神録).
Unüblich für Touhou Charaktere gibt es ihre beiden Namen wirklich und werden im modernen Japan genutzt. Ihr Name Sanae könnte von einer älteren Dame namens "Sanae Moriya" (守矢早苗) stammen, welche das 78. Oberhaupt der Moriya Familie ist. Diese Familie sollte das Erbe eines Priesters namens Jin Choukan (神長官 Gott Leiter), des Großschreins von Suwa antreten. Zurfolge des Familienbaums innerhalb des Schreins, soll sie eine Nachfahre von Moreyashin (洩矢神, der Gott Moreya), des ersten Vorfahren von Moriya, sein (Moreya ist eine veralterte, alternative Ausspracheweise von Moriya).
Auftreten[Bearbeiten]
Sanae hat lange, grüne Haare, die vorne, rechts zu einem lockeren Zopf gebunden sind. Der Zopf wird von einem schlangenartigen Accessoire umwickelt, das durch eine froschartige Spange befestigt ist. Das restliche Design ist Reimu sehr ähnlich, nur dass Sanae nicht rot-weiß sondern blau-weiß ist.
Story[Bearbeiten]
- Mountain of Faith
Als die Menschen in der Außenwelt den Glauben in Kanako Yasaka, der Göttin des Schreins, verloren, beschloss sie, nach Gensokyo zu ziehen, wo zumindest die Youkai an sie glauben würden. Sanae ist außerdem mit Reimu Hakurei und Marisa Kirisame befreundet. Aber Reimu sieht Sanae als Rivalin, weil sie beide Schreinjungfern sind. Während Mountain of Faith versucht sie, den Hakurei-Schrein zu zerstören, um ihren Schrein zum führenden zu machen, erkennt allerdings nicht, wie stark Reimu und Marisa sind. Deshalb wird sie vom Protagonisten besiegt, und kurz nach ihr folgen Kanako und Suwako. Seitdem haben sie allerdings Frieden mit ihren Nachbarn geschlossen und vertragen sich mit den Wesen des Youkai-Bergs.

- Subterranean Animism
Following the extra scenario as the player heads through the Moriya Shrine to look for the two goddesses, Sanae appears as the midboss of the stage. She believes that the traditional greetings in Gensokyo is by attacking with danmaku because you can't be trapped by common sense. She attacts the heroine with three spell cards, but it defeated. Specifically on Reimu/Suika's scenario, she returns stating that Kanako was creating a kappa industrial revolution by using the old Remains of Blazing Hell. She was unaware of the incident that occurred in the game, making Reimu not happy.
- Undefined Fantastic Object
In jedem Szenario in Undefined Fantastic Object wird Sanae eine andere Aufgabe aufgetragen. Abhängig davon wird ihr zweites Geschoss entweder eine Schlange oder ein Frosch.
- Hauptartikel: Sanae A Scenario
Kanako Yasakas Aufgabe an Sanae ist, dass sie ihre Fähigkeiten verbessern soll indem sie Youkai besiegt.
- Hauptartikel: Sanae B Scenario
Suwako Moriyas Aufgabe an Sanae besteht darin den Schiff voller Schätze zu finden.
- Ten Desires
- Hauptartikel: Ten Desires Story
Sanae bemerkt die merkwürdigen Geister am Moriya-Schrein und weiß was sie sind: Göttliche Geister, geboren aus den starken Ängsten, Wünschen und Gefühlen der Menschen. Sie nutzt die Möglichkeit, die Geister einzusammeln, was für Menschen das gleiche ist, wie Glauben zu sammeln. Sie kann allerdings nicht herausfinden, warum so viele davon da sind.
Spin-Offs[Bearbeiten]
- Touhou Hisoutensoku
- Hauptartikel: Touhou Hisoutensoku Story
In Touhou Hisoutensoku entdeckt sie einen riesigen Roboter und verfolgt ihn durch Gensokyo, fällt dann aber in einen Kernreaktor von Utsuho Reiuji und findet heraus, dass Suwako Moriya für den Roboter namens Hisoutensoku verantwortlich ist.
- Double Spoiler
In Double Spoiler, Sanae appeared as an Extra stage target, where she uses a few spell cards and had Aya Shameimaru and Hatate Himekaidou take photos of her and her danmaku.
- Hopeless Masquerade
Sanae made a background cameo appearance in Hopeless Masquerade on the Genbu Ravine and Youkai Tanuki Forest stage. She is seen standing next to Suwako Moriya waving her onusa.
- Impossible Spell Card
- Hauptartikel: Impossible Spell Card: Story
After apparently reading the newspaper by the tengu about a mischief-making amanojaku, she becomes one of the many strong youkai and humans to try and stop Seija Kijin. She uses spell cards that are considered impossible to dodge.
Beziehungen[Bearbeiten]
Sanae serves as the shrine maiden of Kanako Yasaka and Suwako Moriya, and moved with them to Gensokyo. Sanae is also Suwako's distant descendant. During the events of Mountain of Faith, Kanako sends Sanae out to collect faith. Much like Yukari Yakumo's use of Ran and Chen, Sanae can summon Kanako and Suwako in her spell and skill cards in Touhou Hisoutensoku.
Sanae appears to have a friendly relationship with Reimu Hakurei, as she has been seen visiting the Hakurei Shrine on numerous occasions, both in the Prologue of Undefined Fantastic Object and in Wild and Horned Hermit; Sanae is even tasked with minding the shrine while Reimu is training with Kasen Ibaraki.
Sanae frequently meets Marisa on her visits to the Hakurei Shrine, and they seem reasonably friendly.

Trivia[Bearbeiten]
- Sanae seems to have a relatively low alcohol tolerance compared to other characters. In one of the endings of Mountain of Faith, she gets extremely nervous when informed of the constant drinking parties the tengu will hold, with the narrator commenting she'll just have to put up with it, and in Wild and Horned Hermit chapter 19, she's constantly distressed about being made to drink.
- In Mountain of Faith, her spell card Sea Opening "The Day the Sea Split" is extremely similar to Alice Margatroid's second attack in Mystic Square's Extra Stage.
- One of Sanae's Spell Cards in Touhou Hisoutensoku strongly resembles Shin Akuma's "Misogi" from Capcom vs. SNK.
- In her last stage of Touhou Hisoutensoku, despite the fact that Sanae is fighting against Suwako Moriya, Sanae can still use skills summoning Suwako to her aid (e.g. Using Summon Earth's God: Metal Ring), to attack Suwako.
- In Touhou Hisoutensoku Sanae's character portrait shows her having blue eyes, but her sprite has yellow eyes.
- Also in Touhou Hisoutensoku, Sanae has alternate colors that resemble Rumia's, Fujiwara no Mokou's and Mystia Lorelei's outfits. Conversely, one of Reimu's alternate colors resembles Sanae.
- Sanae appears in a promotional flyer wearing a school uniform.
- When in Wild and Horned Hermit a conversation occurred about a "electric rat", a thought bubble showed up with a censored Pikachu from Pokémon.
- Sanae's absences in Hopeless Masquerade and Double Dealing Character were not anticipated by fans, in spite of her many appearances in previous games and manga: Undefined Fantastic Object, Touhou Hisoutensoku, Ten Desires and Wild and Horned Hermit. ZUN directly stated that he hasn't include the Moriya Shrine cast in recent games without reason.[2] However, there'd be explanatory descriptions about the absences through official works:
- Sanae complains that Kanako Yasaka (or possibly them) not taking action in those two incidents in Wild and Horned Hermit chapter 19. Kanako replies kindly that she must calm down, and in another scene, tells her the settlement of negotiation with the tengu about the installation of an aerial tramway; she remarks that she or they've been always busy for completing it. Along with Sanae also knowing the negotiation has been very long, it should be implied that Kanako stopped Sanae from taking action on the incidents for some reason: for example, because Kanako wanted to concentrate her mind on the negotiation, because Kanako couldn't find it worth doing to take action in the incidents, or something else.
- To add the reason of her absence of Double Dealing Character, Marisa points out to Sanae, in Wild and Horned Hermit chapter 19, that Sanae hasn't used her tool regularly; in other words, it isn't so well-used as to build its own ego and to get in rampage.
- Her sigil resembles the Star of David from Judaism.
