Fun Facts
- Nue is the first character ZUN himself has drawn with thigh-highs, and she seems to appeal to zettai ryouiki fans. (Zettai ryouiki loosely translates into "absolute territory" and refers to the area of bare skin seen between a skirt and thigh-highs.)
- A nue is a legendary beast that has "the head of a monkey, the body of a raccoon dog, the legs of a tiger, and a snake as a tail". Nue's family name, Houjuu, literally means "sealed beast" as written.
- Though her name means "sealed beast", Nue often whines about not wanting to be sealed again, preferring by far to be cooked.
- Nue has no visible pupils.
- Due to her character design, theme song, and the fact she is an Extra stage boss, some fans have compared her to Flandre Scarlet.
- In addition, Nue's spell cards are heavily reminiscent of other characters', such as Flandre, Yukari, Rumia, and Hina. Very appropriate given both her power and namesake.
- Nue is one of two characters to have a first name that is simply their species, the other being Satori Komeiji.
- Though Nue is an extra boss, she doesn't have a character portrait in the background during spell cards. Nue and Ran Yakumo are the only Windows extra stage bosses with no portrait of themselves in the background.
- Nue also is the second extra boss to have no sort of amulet tracing her in the style of Suwako's froggy, Ran's square, Yukari's patterns or Flandre's smokey wings. Koishi is the first to show this only having the standard 6-pointed star.
- Nue is the only Extra Stage boss to appear as a midboss in multiple stages. Ran has been a midboss in one stage.
- Nue's appearance as a ball of light midboss on stages 4 and 6 is similar to the stage 2 midboss of Mystic Square.

○Extra boss The Unidentified Flying Fantastic Girl Species: nue A great curiosity. She's been defeated by humans many times before, but each time, accounts of her appearance are different. According to one legend, she had the head of a monkey, the body of a raccoon dog, the legs of a tiger, and the tail of a snake. According to yet another legend, she had the head of a cat, the body of a chicken, and the tail of a snake. These legends were all made up, though. Eventually she got tired of that and leisurely spent a long time deep beneath the earth's surface, but she got mixed up in the turmoil surrounding the geyser incident and appeared above ground once more. She saw Murasa and the others who had been underground with her also come above ground and start plotting something. "Ah, finally I can have some fun again", she thought, and decided to give them some trouble by attaching the Seed of Non-identification to the fragments of the Tobikura. The Seed of Non-identification was a small snake-like flying object with no determined form. Since Reimu and the others didn't think that a block of wood had any business flying in the sky, they thought it was a round UFO of the sort that most exemplified unidentified flying objects. Murasa and company thought that the fragments of the Tobikura had been scattered about by the geyser, but it was in fact thanks to the Seed of Non-identification. In any case, when it looked like others were having fun, Nue would find a way to mess with them from afar. She didn't know what Murasa's group was planning, but she thought it would be funny if they failed. However, humans appeared who seemed happy at the appearance of that unidentified flying object. Eventually she found out that what Murasa was doing would benefit her, too, and came to regret what she'd done. However, Byakuren did not ostracize her for having meddled with her return. | |
