The "Cheery Forgotten Umbrella".

Stage 2 mid-boss and boss, as well as Extra Stage mid-boss of [[Touhou]]'s [i][[Undefined Fantastic Object]][/i], and Stage 3 mid-boss of [i][[Ten Desires]][/i]. A [i]karakasa[/i] youkai who frequently tries (in vain) to surprise humans. She carries with her an umbrella with one big eye and a long tongue sticking out of it; since the umbrella was the traditional description of a [[karakasa obake]], it led to debate as to whether the girl or the umbrella (or both) is the real Kogasa. Fanworks often depict her under the mercy of [[Kochiya Sanae]] due to the latter's scathing words against her back in UFO.

Due to similarities in her style of dress to [[Kazami Yuuka]] (designated by [[ZUN (artist)|]] as "youkai moe"), along with her being perceived as a highly moe character in her own right, Kogasa is often referred to by fans as "the new youkai moe."
