I believe it's genuine, although I did get a fairly decent deal on it.

Well, yeah, I know it's part of her Legend of Scarlet Devil Mansion design, but like you say, who knows why they did that? Probably just reckoned it looked more badass. Same reason that version of Sakuya is dressed like a blackjack dealer. :)

(As an aside, the Engrish text on the box identifies the figure as the Legend of Scarlet Devil Castle Version, which has a ring to it, even if it is just a mistranslation. :)

True.

Fortunately for what remains of my wallet, I at least couldn't find one of the black-dress version of this figure. Not just "for a price I was willing to pay," at all. I guess they were a very limited edition. (Never seen one of the red ones for sale, either, just that one picture from when they were announced.)
