Sailor Moon A to Z, MoTD Style: Hurdler

_{Eudial created the Daimon Hurdler from - you guessed it - a hurdle; she was designed to target Elsa Grey, a sprinter/hurdler and minor celebrity. Hurdler’s greatest strength appeared to be her speed and agility, outrunning Mars’s Burning Mandala and leaping clear over Venus’s Love-Me Chain.
Her main attack was ‘Hard Line’; using the meter on her back, she threw down a strip of white track lane paint, which turned into tape she used to tie the Sailor Soldiers up. However, it was easily broken by Sailor Neptune. Fast though Hurdler may have been, she couldn’t outrun Haruka, who held the Daimon to be weakened by Neptune’s Deep Submerge and finally finished off by Sailor Moon.
She’s also… a giant shoe.}

Sailor Moon A to Z, MoTD Style: Giwaku

_{One of Esmeraude’s Droids, Giwaku looked over a Dark Wedge hidden at the Eisai Cram School. The dark energy made the students grow malicious and spiteful, spreading rumours about Ami cheating to get her good grades. Ami was smart enough to notice that all the students experiencing a rapid personality shift were Eisai students, and scoped it out for herself; there, Giwaku attacked her, but not making much progress with her clones, decided a better ploy would be to turn Ami against the other Sailor Soldiers and have her take them out herself. She cast Illusion Doubt on her, making her hallucinate that the other Soldiers had suddenly turned against her for petty reasons. When Sailor Moon arrived, Giwaku tried the same technique on her, only to be foiled because Usagi is flawlessly free of self-doubt. However, it seemed like Mercury was still under her illusion; until at the last minute it was revealed she could never doubt her friends, and froze Giwaku’s illusion-casting antennae; leaving her open for Sailor Moon to finish off.
Giwaku also beat the shit out of Tuxedo Mask.
“Giwaku” means “doubt”; her Dub name was Mistrust.}

Sailor Moon A to Z, MoTD Style: Fuuraiki

_{Upon hearing Chibi-Usa was afraid of thunder, Petz enlisted the help of a Droid she felt would be perfect for the job of scaring her out of hiding; Fuuraiki, a monster with the power to conjure up thunderstorms. Fuuraiki had a huge drum strapped to her front that she would hit with electric plugs, conjuring both thunder and lightning, as well as a hair dryer holstered to her leg that could create huge gusts of wind and electricity. Naturally, for a storm-making monster, she could fly. She was super into her job, shouting “DON! DON! DON!” when beating on her giant drum. She eventually did manage to spook Chibi-Usa so much she ran out into the open, and chased her into a department store; there she was distracted about Tuxedo Mask talking about traditional waltzes, and was eventually dusted by Sailor Moon.
“Fuuraiki” comes from a combination of Fuujin and Raijin, Japanese Gods of wind and thunder/lightning respectively.
Personally, I think – ignoring the drum – she looks pretty damn cool. I especially liked the hair-dryer holster and how her bracers/makeup matched her electric probes, like the ends of a battery.
TRIVIA: Fuuraiki was a monster in the Sailor Moon R Super Famicon side-scrolling beat-‘em-up game. She was particularly difficult to beat, having a range attack that would burn you (implying that her hair dryer produced hot wind), and a close-combat move that would electrify you. Perhaps referencing her initial role of actively seeking out the ‘Rabbit’, she is one of the few monsters in the game who can hurt you when playing as Chibi-Usa.}

Sailor Moon A to Z, MoTD Style: Chagama

_{Targeting a young boy who worked serving at tea ceremonies, Eudial created the Daimon Chagama using an old tea pot. Chagama was a stoic monster who attacked by whisking and throwing scalding hot cups of green tea, though she wasn’t afraid to smack a titch when she had to. A powerful and competent monster, she unfortunately prioritised being a good host too highly, and was caught off-guard by Sailor Moon’s “Moon Spiral Heart Attack” whilst trying to “entertain” Tuxedo Mask midway through disrobing to her tea kettle lingerie.
Chagama floated everywhere on her cushion, kneeling as one does at a tea ceremony. Her hair style is reminiscent of the brush/whisk used to prepare bitter green tea in traditional tea ceremonies.
A chagama is a traditional Japanese iron tea pot/kettle.}
