Yumemi cheats more than Shikieiki does, but regardless has one of the best final boss themes in the series.
In Japan, the cross just doesn't have the religious gravitas that it does in the west. The fact that she uses crosses is actually more style than substance.
8 years later, Sumireko came second for a Touhou shooter final boss that is a human.
But urban isnt a shooter...
What about VD?
Does anybody remember that yumemi and chiyuri went back to gensokyo?
Having accepted the sins of her past, and owning up to the mistakes she made, Yumemi’s heart has grown alot lighter. No longer does she seek approval and validation. No longer does she wish for someone to recognize her genius. For she has friends that are willing to help her fulfill her dreams. She has a home, a family. Something far more valuable than validation or approval. The shackles that once held her back have been loosed, and her spirit is now free. Free to fly to the stars, uniting science, religion, and magic under one banner.
Shine on Yumemi. Your light will be a guiding beacon for those who follow your teachings.
Amen.

Yumemi's from a time period where all physics and forces are described perfectly by the "Unified World Theory". She, however, being a professor at age 16, objected and presented a modified theory that also added the idea of magic. However, this was, of course, rejected, and Okazaki was kicked out. She then traveled to Gensokyou to gather more data for her theory and to get revenge.
@Miminitinumitumun
This could be a reference to how magic was rejected by the Church, and later, assimilated. The use of these symbols in the Strawberry Cross may be Yumemi's subtle opinion of her theory of magic, and her goal to unify science, magic, and religion.
Anything and EVERYTHING involves science. Even your mom.
I am beyond explanation by science. Not even Yumemi, Gensokyo’s brightest mind, can explain me.

DUDE THAT PICTURE
Though gone forever to the rest of the alternative Gensokyos, mine still has Yumemi, and her mind is one of our most valuable weapons. Just don’t piss her off.
@groudonsbest
The cross and hexagram hold a bit of double meaning. The Cross and Hexagram are both religious symbols and resemble the Star of David and Cross. This could mean that Yumemi is implying the existence of God and that his powers cannot be covered by a simple "Unified Theory".
Both the Cross and the hexagram, however, are used in what Christians would call unholy. The Cross was originally a Pagan item of worship. The Hexagram with the circle is used in witchcraft.
@Bowserian might be due to in her world, she was trying to prove that magic exists... i believe that the people didn't believe her so she searched for magic herself and ended up in gensokyo. although this is all coming from what i think i read..
Fun fact: Actually a scientist.
@Bowserian A lot of scientists are very devout people, you know. Hell, the church created science.
Science was around since the beginning of time.
i think this might be the first remaster that ive liked more than the original...
@niconicokoibito They could still surprise you. After all, how would Science have started except as man's attempt to understand Divine Creation?
all of these comments being so disconnected from the old YT reply system is messing with my mind
@Miminitinumitumun Not sure on pagans worshipping the cross, but I do no the other meaning is intimidation and torture. Think about it, your nailed to something and put on display! Pretty effect, don't you think.
@Debachi
Very effective, I agree...
Hey! Someone replied to my comment! ^^
Sounds like to kanako's theme lol
Actually, Miko and Byakuren are humans.
the 2nd part is awesome but the first part shoulda been heavy, not like zun has never done anything like that
@pie625 im suuuure it did
Remind me why she uses scarlet crosses even though she is a man, eeh, woman of science?
If only that were creative.
@pie625 lose the divine bit and im partilly in. sorry
