Yang Yumo is the 2nd crossover DLC boss in Luminous Avenger iX 2, having been released on February 24th, 2022 for $7.99 / €6.99 / 800 Yen. Her appearance is part of a collaboration between iX2 and the game Dusk Diver 2, which she is the main protagonist of. In Dusk Diver 2, Lola appears as a boss in the DLC sub-quest "Visitors from Other World", with Yumo gaining a Lola outfit and Razor Wheel weapon Lola pod copy summon upon completing it and sending Lola home.

Unlike the 1st crossover DLC boss, Kohaku Otori, Yumo has some dialogue when encountered... But speaks in (subtitled) Chinese, leading to miscommunication with Copen.

Defeating her grants the D Burst ability, which when equipped allows successive Bullit Dashing outside of Overdrive.

Website Description[]

  • English site
  • Japanese

She is a young woman from the world of "Dusk Diver 2" who got lost in another dimension.

Through happenstance, she obtained the ability to transform and spends her days fighting off enemies known as Chaos Beasts. Finding herself face-to-face with Copen, she is left with little choice but to fight when the two can't seem to communicate.

What will this fateful meeting bring about...?[3]

「Dusk Diver 2 崑崙靈動」の世界から迷い込んできた少女。ひょんなことから手に入れた変身能力を武器に、普段は厄禍(わざわい)と呼ばれる敵と戦っている。突然の対面もあり、アキュラには彼女の言葉が伝わらず、二人は戦うことになってしまう。はたして、この出逢いがもたらすものとは……[4]

History[]

Luminous Avenger iX 2 - VS Yumo[]

Under unknown circumstances, Copen and Lola encounter Yumo in a block of the Grave Pillar resembling the Jungle Block. Yumo sees the "scary look" in Copen's eyes and becomes worried that he's possessed due to him carrying a buzz saw, while Copen is surprised to have found another human. Due to inability to communicate, a fight ensues, seemingly ending with Copen the victor and Yumo returning to her world under unknown circumstances.

According to Lola in "Visitors from Other World", Yumo held back against them in the fight. (This would explain why Yang Yumo was using kicking attacks at Copen instead, as her primary fighting style in Dusk Diver is close-quarters combat with her fists.)

Trivia[]

[Note that adding spoilers for Dusk Diver is not permitted.]

  • Yumo is the first character appearing in the Gunvolt series who has a voice actor and does not speak Japanese.
    • In Dusk Diver, Yumo does actually have a Japanese dub voice actor; Rina Sato. The iX2 DLC uses her voice actor Hsuan-Ming Mu in all languages.
  • Yumo is the only lightning-wielding boss in the series who is not an Azure Striker, discounting the Mighty Gunvolt spinoffs. However, judging by Lola's comment it seems Copen had a lot of trouble against Yumo all the same.
  • Lola uses an EX Weapon resembling Yumo's electric attacks in her Dusk Diver 2 DLC battle.
