Tutorial Edit Article

One of the many characters in the Touhou Project, she is a Youkai and the guardian of the Scarlet Devil Mansion.

Overview

Hong Meiling is a youkai who guards the entrance to the Scarlet Devil Mansion, where Remilia Scarlet, her mistress, resides. Her specialty is her skillful use of martial-arts, which can be seen through her movements, which incorporate Shin-Kyaku (a move in Chinese martial-arts) into them.

She has aqua eyes and scarlet hair (which represents both her name and the place she is guarding). She wears a green dress and beret, both of which represent traditional Chinese clothing. Her beret has a gold star on the front, which reads long (dragon).

Trivia

The character for "Hong" literally means "Scarlet" in Japanese, and "Red" in Chinese, while "Meiling" means "Beautiful Bell".
She is mainly known as "Chuugoku", which translates to "China". Even ZUN has admitted to calling her China, as it is considered a half-official name at the moment. This nickname is further accentuated through her clothing and the name of her stage BGM, "Chinese Tea".
Although she was featured as a playable character in Immaterial and Missing Power, she was the only character to not recieve her own storyline, much to the disdain of many fans.
