Character overview: Kaguya Houraisan is from Touhou Project.

Backstory: Kaguya was born in the royal house of the moon was treated with utmost care and respect for her status as royalty. However, due to boredom, she managed to convince Eirin Yagokoro to create the Hourai Elixir, an elixir that granted immortality, and consumed it subsequently turning herself immortal.

This was highly forbidden, thus Kaguya was exiled from the moon to live amongst humans as punishment.

Kaguya was found by a bamboo cutter and was forced to dwell amongst the humans she once despised. Kaguya eventually learned and came to love her new home on earth. Rumours of her beauty spread far and wide, which left Kaguya feeling guilty as many men from from all across the land to seek her hand in marriage, Mokou's father being one of them.

Yet, none of them could complete her trial of the Five Impossible Requests Kaguya gave to her suitors.

The Five Impossible Requests was composed of gathering five items from various parts of the world and bring them to Kaguya.

These requests was considered impossible because Kaguya already had them in her possession thus making the requests totally impossible.

After years of exile, emissaries from the moon arrived to tell Kaguya she had been forgiven for her crimes and should return to the moon. Kaguya, having spent a long time on Earth, had grown to love life she had on Earth, and had no desire to return to the moon.
