さなぱい 東風谷早苗 东风谷早苗 早苗 코치야사나에
The "Human of the Worshipped Wind". Stage 5 boss of [[Touhou]]'s [[Mountain of Faith]] and later a recurring playable character. Has the power to create miracles. Her signature [[gohei]] is different from the norm as it has straight paper decorations.

She is the [[miko]] of the [[Moriya Shrine]] under the patronage of [[Yasaka Kanako]] and also direct descendant of the shrine's original deity, [[Moriya Suwako]]. Sanae and her deities moved into [[Gensokyo]] due to waning faith of humans from the outside world, making her one of the only humans from the 21st century. Recent games in the main series as well as certain side works consider her a type of deity in her own right. 

She is a generally good, if somewhat naive and clumsy, girl, but also an "overeager youkai hunter":/pool/show/4639 (leading to her portrayal of frequently [[bullying]] [[Tatara Kogasa]] after a scene in [[Undefined Fantastic Object]] where Sanae gave scathing words against the latter). 

She has [[long hair|long]] [[green hair]], with a [[single sidelock]]. Her eyes are [[green eyes|green]] or [[blue eyes|blue]]. In her hair are [[snake hair ornament|snake]] and [[frog hair ornament]]s and a [[single hair tube]]. She is frequently depicted with [[large breasts]]. She wears a [[sleeveless shirt|sleeveless]] [[collared shirt|collared]] [[white shirt]] with [[detached sleeves|detached]] [[white sleeves]], a [[long skirt|long]] [[frilled skirt|frilled]] [[blue skirt]], [[white socks]], and [[brown footwear|brown]] [[shoes]]. As of [[Unfinished Dream of All Living Ghost]], she is additionally shown with [[wings]]. Doujins sometimes portray her wearing a modern [[school uniform]] as homage to her origins.

Sanae is occasionally depicted as a [[retro games sanae (meme)|generation behind]] due to [[Mountain of Faith]] first releasing in 2007.

She is sometimes called "[[player_2|2P]] [[Hakurei Reimu|Reimu]]" or "[[Miko]] [[Luigi]]" due to Reimu's red outfit compared to Sanae's green outfit.
