I was sold on Yuyuko when she asked in PCB something along the lines of

"But I've killed lots of people for my amusement. Why couldn't I resurrect one for that same reason?"

Zun has been contradicting that line in some picture book or another (Zun has a habit of contradicting himself) but it fascinated me. I formed this mental image of a shamelessly hedonistic, self-centered dead monarch who literally couldn't understand why people thought dying was so horrible. One that would kill you for giggles and then think of you as a whiny crybaby if you're not okay with it. From her perspective, death is nothing to fear, it's just a garden full of cherry blossoms around palace of white jade.

Plus, it helps that both she and her attacks are fucking beautiful. Especially the last one.

I've always pictured that Yuyuko's touch feels cold like a corpse. She is a ghost, after all.
