Demons

Revision as of 12:49, 31 July 2020 by Tox (talk | contribs) (That's a lot of names, and not one the same as the article name. Who named it this?)

The demons[1] (悪霊?, Akuryō) (also known as Yokai (妖怪[2]?, Yokai), monsters[3], ghouls[4], evil spirits[5] and marauding spirits[6]) are the main antagonists of the Samurai Slice games in the Rhythm Heaven franchise. They are pitch-black creatures with hand-like claws and spiky teeth who cause all kinds of mischief. They create trouble by stealing precious items, including a pinwheel and a stuffed bunny, as seen in Rhythm Heaven Fever; and even kidnapping women, as seen in Super Samurai Slice. The only one who's seen stopping them is the Wandering Samurai. Their first appearance was in Rhythm Tengoku, where they can be found wearing red Tengu-like masks.
