Enemy

Dogumaru appears to be a half-human, half-horse clay statue bearing the green gem often found on Relic enemies. He attacks by charging a pulse before firing it at the ground, creating a green explosion. His red eyes glares during his attack animation.

This enemy behaves like a stronger version of Manic King Dragon, having more health, damage, an already high standing range of 500, an Omni Strike that reaches up to 700 range and a 20-second curse. Due to his reach, he is difficult to attack safely. His main weakness is his somewhat low DPS for a Relic, but keep in mind in all of his appearances, Dogumaru is never alone. When introduced into 2~3♛, his danger increases significantly and can no longer easily be beaten without a dedicated strategy or powerful ubers.

Despite floating off of the ground, Dogumaru is not considered a Floating enemy.

Trivia

• He is based on ancient Shakōkidogū figurines, the most recognizable form of dogū.
• The word maru in Dogumaru's name can mean "full" or "whole" in Japanese. This may refer to how being attached to a horse statue's lower body has made Dogumaru complete again, as Shakōkidogū in real life are seldom found with all of their limbs intact.
• For a few reasons, Dogumaru could potentially be a nod to Hanimaru from the children's television program Ōi! Hanimaru:
  • Both combine the name of an ancient Japanese clay figurine with 丸 maru (Hanimaru is haniwa, Dogumaru is dogū).
  • As an enemy, Dogumaru's Japanese description mentions that he was thought to be a haniwa.
  • Hanimaru is usually seen with his horse haniwa Hinbei, while enemy Dogumaru's Japanese description states that he was mistakenly attached to the lower body of a horse dogū that had fallen beside him.
