Tobikiri Dude
CharacterTobikiri Dude is a bat-shaped Lemures of the Dead Moon Circus, summoned by JunJun during Sailor Moon SuperS. He is the first monster JunJun calls up and the only one of hers not built around a fish motif.
Appearance
He takes the form of a bat. His name blends a word for jumping with a term for a wild or rowdy boy, a nod to the vaulting theme that runs through his lone appearance.
History
When JunJun drew out the Dream Mirror of Kyuusuke Sarashina, the Sailor Guardians moved in to stop her, and she answered by calling up Tobikiri Dude, who swallowed the mirror whole. He then took to the air, circling out of reach so the Guardians could not land a hit. Because he never borrowed Kyuusuke's own moves, the opening came from Sailor Chibi Moon: having finally conquered the vaulting horse, she leapt over him as though he were one, turning Kyuusuke's skill against him and slamming him to the ground. Twinkle Yell brought Pegasus, and Sailor Moon destroyed him with Moon Gorgeous Meditation, releasing the captured mirror.
