~ Seija Kijin |
Seija Kijin is an amanojaku in the Touhou series with the power to turn things upside-down and the main antagonist of Double Dealing Character (but not the final boss). She appears for the first time in the fifth stage of Double Dealing Character as the penultimate boss, residing in the Shining Needle Castle.
Seija's main objective is to overthrow society, and to make the weak rule over the strong. To do this, she manipulated Shinmyoumaru Sukuna into using the Miracle Mallet for this cause by convincing her that the youkai brought about the downfall of the Kobito. This makes her the true antagonist of the story, and the franchise's second "malicious" villain, the first being Utsuho Reiuji, who had no other motive than world domination.
She was given her own game, Impossible Spell Card.
