In the PC98 version of Madou Monogatari 3, Dullahan is decapitated and covered in blood when low on health or dead, a similar fate to Schezo.

He first appeared in the PC98 version in replacement of Mamono, and was used in the later remakes with new abilities such as being able to change his size or poison the player. Due to him being more frightening looking, this may be the reason he had never appeared in the actual Puyo Puyo games.

It's unknown if he was always a monster, or was once a human wizard and worked at the school with Teacher.

Garuda

Garuda is a demonic bird that shouts an ear-shrilling screech when encountered or defeated. The black blood that drips from its mouth that belongs to Lamia. When Lamia loses, Garuda appears from the shadows and devours her body.

Most likely for being unsuitable for younger audiences, in the Gamegear version it was changed into a humanoid bird that appears at random like all enemies and sheds its feathers in defeat. It still can appear when Lamia is in critical condition at times, however. The humanoid form is closer to the original Hindu mythological figure. It also appears in Waku Waku Puyo Puyo Dungeon, albeit now only as a recolor of Cockatrice.

Gorgon

Gorgon MSX.gif

Gorgon is a gray cow-based creature with devil wings and a bell around its neck in the MSX version of Madou Monogatari 2. Despite its name being taken from the snake-haired female creature in Greek mythology, in no way does it resemble that creature. It instead resembles the Gorgon from Dungeons and Dragons.

Haagen Duck

Haagen Duck is one of many characters originating from Madoushi Lulba that makes an appearance in Madou Monogatari S. Haagen Duck is a debonair but plucky duck whom light warrior Cyber Cat bumps into on his adventure home. After a brief but rough encounter (one that results in Duck dropping the mystical Sword of Light he was carrying), Duck meets Cyber again and the two reconcile, leading Duck to tag along with the young warrior. He serves as the main comic relief of the game, sometimes getting himself into trouble while attempting to help his newfound "master." When Schezo encounters him inside of the labyrinth in Madou Monogatari S, Haagen Duck explains that he's traveling in search of a "strong guy".

Trivia

  • Haagen Duck's appearance recalls that of Disney character Scrooge McDuck.
  • Haagen Duck's name is seemingly derived from the American ice cream brand Häagen-Dazs. This is much more notable in Japanese, where Haagen Duck's name (ハーゲンダック) is only a single character off from the Japanese spelling of Häagen-Dazs (ハーゲンダッツ).
  • In the 2018 adventure game La-Mulana 2, there is a duck shopkeeper known as "Bargain Duck" who bears a striking resemblance to Haagen Duck. His description offers even more references that mirror Haagen Duck's desire to grow stronger by searching ancient ruins, and his eventual meeting with Cyber Cat and his insistence on being his follower. The La-Mulana series as a whole takes a lot of inspiration from MSX games, so the reference is more than likely intentional.

Hanzo

Hanzo (sometimes referred to as Hattori Hanzo or Hanzo Bluff) is first of the three exclusive bosses in Madou Monogatari I Honoo No Sotsuenji. When Arle first encounters him, Hanzo seems to be nervous about fighting her, but bluffs and says that he will defeat Arle. Despite his confidence, he is defeated in a single hit, making the battle with him a complete joke.

Afterwards, Arle points out how pathetic that battle was, making him embarrassed.

His only opposition is the young warrior Cyber Cat and his companion, Haagen Duck. He appears in Schezo's story of Madou Monogatari S as a high-level enemy.

Only when Cyber returns after plucking a feather from a bird and tickles her with it does she finally hand over the key.

In Madou Monogatari S, Schezo meets him in the ruins, where he is holding the key Obaba is looking for.

Puyoman were a highly popular manjū treat produced and sold by Compile, made to look like Puyos. In 2023, SEGA began releasing "Puyo Puyo Manjū," using the original molds and recipe. One appears as minor character in the Game Gear version of Madou Monogatari III, serving as an advertisement. It is initially mistaken to be a Yellow Puyo by the game, but Arle is quick to realize that it is actually a steamed bun. It begins to talk, stating that they will be sold in Miyajima, Hiroshima beginning in January of 1995, the month after the game's release. After it leaves, Arle is left confused by the encounter.

In the mobile port of the game, released in 2009, its dialogue is changed to tell of how it used to be found in Hiroshima, asking that it not be forgotten.

Rai

Rai is one of Arle's schoolmates in Madou Monogatari: Hanamaru Dai Youchienji. He is found in the same room as Kazu.

Samurai

Samurai is a samurai robot (possibly; in his home game, he is organic) who appears as an enemy in Madou Monogatari S. He is originally from another Compile game known as Samurai King Megason Z (サムライキング メガスオンZ), an adventure game very similar to Madoushi Lulba (even being developed by the same in-house team, Monkeydo). There, he was the form of main protagonist Yoshitaka Minami whilst fused with the spirit of the ancient Samurai King in order to defeat an evil monster.

  • Game Gear

  • ARS

Skeleton D

Skeletond.jpg

Skeleton D is the twin brother of Skeleton T from Madou Monogatari: Hanamaru Dai Youchienji. Instead of a calm tea-lover like his brother, he is an energetic alcoholic. He has not appeared in any other games since.

In said game he appeared in, he is an imposter of one of the Old Village people claiming that he was stealing vegetables out of sheer boredom. He can swig his beer to get health back and has an ice move identical to Arle's.

In Puyo Puyo DA! however, the color scheme of his bottle is used for Skeleton T in VS. mode along with Doppelganger Schezo's.

Sleeping princess.png

The Sleeping Princess is the final boss of Madou Monogatari: Secret of Elysium. She is a woman that claims to be a powerful mage that battles Arle. She appears to be possessed by Dark Matter, as shown when his spirit flies out of her after she is defeated.

Socrates

Socrates is an NPC encountered in Madou Monogatari A: Doki Doki Vacation. He is a large, abandoned iron golem that resembles a battle mech. Socrates says that he was created by an ancient mage that has been dead for some time, and suggests Arle become his new master, to which she agrees. He then asks her to retrieve three parts for him (rust remover, oil, and a black box), and gives her rope to help navigate the quicksand area. After giving him these items, he can finally function once again and can be summoned with a magic ribbon (which allows him to blast open heavy doors and can attack in battle). When he and Arle reach Satan’s fortress, the duo are ambushed by Satan’s golems. Socrates fends them off, but is left beyond repair after the battle. In his final moments, Socrates asks Arle to protect the forest, and finally passes on.

Spector

Spector is an enemy in the Madou Monogatari franchise. He first appears in Madou Monogatari 3 , and later in Madou Monogatari for the SEGA Saturn. It resembles a dark purplish figure with a cat's tail and a wide grin. These elements seem to evoke the Cheshire Cat of Lewis Carroll fame.

Spider Vomit

Spider Vomit, also called Gero Gumo is an enemy exclusive to the PC-98 version of Madou Monogatari 1 and Honoo No Sotsuenji.

Spriggan

Spriggan is an enemy in Madou Monogatari A, resembling a muscular, mecha-like ghost with elements of a genie (blue skin, gold earrings/bracelets, pointy ears, and a wispy tail). He is originally from Seirei Senshi Spriggan, a vertical shooter also developed by Compile, where he was the player's ship and took on a more detailed and occult-inspired design. His name is derived from a creature in Cornish folklore, also called spriggan.

Trivia

  • Spriggan's design in Madou Monogatari A bears much resemblance to the character of the Genie from Disney's 1992 animated film Aladdin. Given how Aladdin debuted just a year before the release of Madou Monogatari A, and how Disney's properties are quite popular in Japan, it's likely this was intentional.

Sword Beast

The Sword Beast is a kamaitachi enemy that appears in Madou Monogatari A.

Tanuki

Madoutanuki.png

Tanuki is a mystical tanuki that can transform itself into Arle, found only in Madou Monogatari I Honoo No Sotsuenji. Its gender is unknown; despite it being able to change form into Arle, it also appears male.

Tanuki was one of nine enemy designs chosen to appear in the game from an idea submission contest that was held by Compile, NEC Avenue, and PC Engine Fan magazine in 1994 during the game's early development.

Tautau

Tautau (not to be confused with Tarutaru) is a blue cat-like merchant from the PC-98 and PC Engine versions of Madou Monogatari 1.

Trivia

  • In the Game Gear version of Madou Monogatari 1, the merchant for the shop on Floor 1 of the Magic Tower, despite clearly being Parara, is referred to as Tautau. This was most likely an error as Tautau doesn't appear in this version of the game.

Teacher

Teacher(not to be confused with Lucifer) is Arle's school teacher that appears in most of the games where she's five-years old. In the original MSX version, her hair is peach instead of green. She appears in Madou Monogatari 1, its Mega Drive version, and Madou Monogatari: Hanamaru Dai Youchienji.

Testbody.png

The Test Body is an experimental body who's flesh is rooted to the exit of Schezo's dungeon in the PC98 version of Madou Monogatari 2. It's purposes are unknown other than keeping Arle from leaving.

Tototo

Tototo is an NPC from Madou Monogatari 3. He is a weak, harmless monster who doesn't want to hurt anybody. His son, Tetete, is missing. Arle, unlike others who entered the woods, refused to attack him, so he offers to help Arle escape if she can find Tetete.

Tyranno, short for Tyrannosaurus, is a vicious but surprisingly not very large dinosaur that only appeared in the two MSX2 versions of Madou Monogatari 2. It has a loud roar in Madou Monogatari Episode II: Carbuncle and seems to have an organic body, while in the final version of Madou Monogatari 2, its body appears to be made of glass and makes a shattering noise upon defeat.

Valkyrie

Valkyrie is a blonde-haired woman in white carrying a sword and shield. She first appeared in Madou Monogatari S as an enemy, and later had a cameo in Madou Monogatari I (Mega Drive).

Trivia

  • Valkyrie's design was likely based on Namco's own Valkyrie character, as both have blonde hair, similar dresses and weaponry, and winged headwear. It is also interesting to note Namco had a planned Valkyrie game featured as a demo on DiscStation #4 for MSX known as Valkyrie no Boken II: Harukanaru Toki no Tobira (ワルキューレの冒険II 遥かなる時の扉).

Wish-totm.png

She is said to be a powerful magician and her triumph over the evil wizard Dark Matter was significant enough to be recorded in a book.

She is possessed by Dark Matter for the final battle of the Madou Monogatari: Tower of the Magician, making her not too dissimilar to Satan, Klug and even Arle, all of whom have suffered similar fates.

Her name, in addition to implying her supposedly benevolent personality, may also be a pun on the Japanese pronunciation of "Witch". She is also occasionally mentioned in SEGA games, though not by name.

Wizard

A young blonde Wizard normally carrying a staff, wearing armor, and boots. He blasts a strong storm at the foe to attack. He appears in Madou Monogatari 1, and Madou Monogatari R.
