There's something I'm going to tell you about Youmu that you probably aren't going to believe...............................

She's good enough to eat though.

It's not child-like at all! Youmu has curves!!

She has a nice figure, thanks to that and her sword training.

Is it weird if I think that Youmu is something of a gateway Touhou? She's universally pretty well liked, and those who even know nothing about Touhou can see her white hair, cute ribbon, and swords and think she's really cool. Then, as they discover more about the series they branch off and realize that maybe Youmu isn't their favorite anymore, but still harbor some love for her.

but she's just so soft

I imagine Miko's sword style matches her taoist ideology of action through inaction: never making the first move, countering everything by using her opponent's own strength.

Yumeko's style would be heavily influenced by Digrassi's teachings, considering she's a wester-style maid. Personally I see her as Sakuya but using swords, so my reasoning may be biased.

Tenshi doesn't have a style per-se. She uses the sword for it's effect of finding her opponent's weakness. Her swordsmanship would be unrefined but extremely effective.

Yorihime follows the same reasoning as Tenshi, by summoning gods fit for each opponent she faces, except she has the sword training Tenshi lacks.

Youmu would, of course, use the typical samurai style. She'd perform battoujutsu, which would allow her to take full advantage of her speed. She is also skilled at one-on-one fights, but the strain of using a two-sword style would be noticeable after a while. She could opt to use only one sword, though, and use different styles accordingly. In terms of pure swordsmanship knowledge, she ranks as number one in my opinion.

Youki is matched with Youmu in terms of swordsmanship knowledge, but he's more experienced in battle and stronger.

Rinnosuke would have some skill with the sword. Depending on time, that skill would be rivalling of Youmu's or on the level of a lowly apprentice. Going by the current time in canon, he would be a talented novice. Using Kusanagi also helps.

I would think Alice has some knowledge of swordsmanship considering some of her dolls use swords to fight. How that knowledge would convert into skill when she's the one using a sword is up to speculation.

I'm sick and tired of this fucking "soft" shit that Youmu is attributed with all the fucking time on /jp/. All she does is tend to her mistress' garden, and help defend Hakugyokurou against invaders. She's a FUCKING WARRIOR OF THE SWORD and doesn't deserve to be treated like a FUCKING PILLOW.
