Medusa (メディウサ Mediusa) is a boss in Sexy Parodius. She appears at the end of Stage 3B.
Description
Medusa is a giant mythological creature with snakes for hair and devil-like ears. Only the head is fought, with her eyes being her weak spot.
Attack patterns
- The snakes in her hair can shoot bullets which are aimed at the player.
- Can immobilize the player by firing beams from her eyes. This can make evading the bullets hard.
- Can charge forward to the left-side of the screen. The safe spot is at the bottom-left corner of the screen.
- Can summon rats riding on broomsticks. Destroying them adds to the counter.
Trivia
- Medusa is famous for being one of the most traditional enemies in the Castlevania series, another Konami franchise.
- The intro for Medusa's theme is Poison Mind, from the Castlevania series.
- When she is defeated, she moans loudly and cries before turning to stone.
- When she is defeated or when the snakes are hit, they all will perform different face animations.
