First off, that's not an objection, you didn't disprove the original post.

Second, only two of those are actually Rika's themes. If you want to count that extra stage theme as Rika's, you might as well count Alice in Wonderland as an Alice theme, meaning that Alice matches Rika's 3 themes in one game record (And, actually, Alice has more claim to Alice in Wonderland than Rika has to Extra Love, considering that her name is in the theme).

Third, you should probably just make a Rika thread.

I always forget that Dance of Witches is a unique theme.

>She was trying to get stronger (foxball) and worked very hard to jew Reimu
If I recall correctly, she only wanted to check out the foxball that wasn't a foxball because the foxes had heard about it and were curious, and she didn't really have any intentions to take or use it.

Anyways, even if she was trying her best to trick Reimu, it can't compare to how much time and work Marisa must have put into searching for ingredients and experimenting with them to gain her power and her flashiness. Speaking of which, the fox isn't very flashy, so one more difference between them.

>I think it's only a matter of time before she ends up youkai like every other magician. I personally dont understand why she hasnt already, I see absolutely no downside.
She's besties with Reimu, the top exterminator in town. Although she's very friendly with youkai for a miko, she's strictly and strongly against humans from the village turning into them, so she exterminates those regardless of their intentions, and she'd probably want to apply this to Marisa, as well. There are also other humans she's close with, like her family and Rinnosuke, that probably wouldn't like it very much if she went down that path.
So, she'd at the very least gravely upset her best friend, her family and some more and possibly put her life in danger just so she wouldn't have to sleep or eat, which are nice things to do anyways.

I suppose there could also be something to be said about keeping true to one's nature.
