Summary

A labyrinth magical girl. One of the 'if' forms... of the heroines of Monogatari series if they became magical girls. Her excellent defense will cause the enemy’s attack to avoid her, as if it had lost its way. For some reason, I can never reach my mother’s house. My wish was “I wish to return home”.

Doppel Description

The Doppel of wandering astray. Its form is a lost cow. The master of this emotion wishes only to return to her mother’s house. This Doppel, on the other hand, believes itself to be its master’s true mother, and in order to protect its master from the cruel fate that awaits her, it creates many spatial vortexes in front of her to prevent her from returning home. Those unlucky enough to be caught in the vortexes will be trampled and killed by the Doppel, and will be destined to wander eternally between the realms of life and death.

Abilities

Labyrinth Magical Girl Mayoi Hachikuji. Uses the spell Caterpillant (Infinitely Reckless) , Screw Zone (Spiral Path). A magical girl specializing in defensive aspects. She avoids the route of her opponent's attacks . However she has no traditional attacks from here and can't land hits. Because her drill is for creating paths were there are none this is more of a construction tool, and not for attacking.

Etymology

• The characters of her last name mean "八" (eight), "九" (nine), and "寺" (temple), respectively.
  • This translates to "89 temples" which is in reference to the Shikoku Pilgrimage. Her being the 89th temple could refer to a trope of Buddhism where only 88 temples are allowed to go on a procession and so being the 89th temple is a sign of misfortune.
• The characters of her first name mean "真" (truth) and "宵" (evening), respectively.
  • Alternatively, it can be read as "迷い" which means "to lose one's way".

Trivia

• When Mayoi uses her doppel, it does not show her witch's name in runes. Rather, it displays the white kanji "咼", which is the kanji for 'a' (as in a thing), in the same vein as to how Nadeko Sengoku's doppel's name translates to 'it'. However, "咼" is also the right half of the character for 'snail' (蝸), much like how Nadeko's doppel name was the right half of the character for 'snake' (蛇)
• The form of her doppel being a 'lost cow' is a pun on a play on the word "snail" (蝸牛, katatsumuri) which has the character for "cow" (牛, ushi).
• In Magia Record, Mayoi is event limited and must be rolled in the gacha.
• Mayoi has the same voice actor as Kyubey.
