Ahh Rika so kawaii :3

1. Rika was the first boss ever in a Touhou shooting game.

2. She's also the first Extra Stage boss.

3. Rika is the only character in the series to pilot a vehicle during a boss fight...tanks that she herself constructed. Pretty impressive.

4. She, along with Evil Eye Σ, are considered by many to be the most difficult extra boss in the series.

5. Although her sprite appears vaguely in Stage 1, some fans who draw her depict her wearing pants.

6. In some fanart, Rika is shown with 6 fingers instead of five.

7. Rika looks similar and has a similar name to Rikako Asakura. These two are compared and speculated be the same character, being related or just being friends.

8. It's also common to depict Rika being friends with Nitori Kawashiro, both being engineers and that they both construct tanks.

9. Rika claims that every enemy in Stage 1 and the EX stage of SoEW was created by her.
