Due to her appearance, Okina has been compared to both Yukari Yakumo and Junko, with fans joking about her being either of them with different clothes.
She is also sometimes depicted with the former because of their similar ability of creating portals, and due to both of them being two of the Sages of Gensokyo that created Gensokyo and protect it. They also both have two servants.
Due to her spellcards in Extra Stage involving shooting from below, Okina has been compared to Seija Kijin, as well as making jokes about the latter having her backdoor in front of her.
Okina is sometimes shown with Hata no Kokoro, since the Buddhist god she's based on (Matara-jin) is closely related to Hata no Kawakatsu.
