| Yeah, we have Okina, but what about Hecatia? |

So as I was replaying HSiFS on steam since it came out (I was not prepared for this miracle.), I thought about a few things. How powerful is Okina? She seems to be pretty cocky. That, in my eyes, is either a sign of someone who is weaker than they actually say they are, or someone who can actually do some insane things. She has shown to be pretty tough, as well. Then there's Hecatia. She is, according to some and even ZUN, the strongest touhou there is to date. But honestly, she seems like a basic extra boss when you encounter her. Perhaps she's just the type who doesn't like to show off her true strength, yeah? Or any at all, for that matter. So, as a result, I'd like to see the thoughts of others on this subject. |

Hecate's too chill to flaunt it. That's just gauche. |

She pretty much tells you in her dialogue that she's just messing around with you. Danmaku doesn't mean all that much; it's more like a lower bound than an approximation of what they can pull off. |

I think it's also good to remember that Hecatia's a Goddess of Hell, and Okina is more or less a 'Goddess of Gensokyo'. Okina said herself that it's part of a God's duty to act almighty and flashy, so perhaps the fact we saw Heca acting so casual and friendly was because she wasn't even in her domain to begin with. Sure we can't guess how she'd act if she was encountered in Hell, especially since compared to Gensokyo it has a completely society and overviews, but I like thinking that could be a good indicator of why their attitude is so different. Okina was more or less doing her job by making sure Gensokyo was doing well, and had to act all godlike in the process, Heca was having fun tagging along in her slighlty-crazy friend's dramatic revenge drama. |
| AndyPyro:
Yeah. Those are pretty valid points. I also feel like Hecatia is also a pretty underrated character to begin with as well. Which is likely why I brought this subject up. But oh well. The more I think about it, the more I realize just how powerful Hecatia is. |
