History: Puuko-chan was one of Tiger's Eye's female
Lemures, whom he summoned forth from his shadow after he extracted Saori's
Dream Mirror and assigned to eliminate Super Sailor Moon and Super Sailor
Chibi Moon, as well as his human target. Cheerfully setting out to accomplish
her grim task, Puuko-chan first squashed Super Sailor Chibi Moon beneath
her rotund body in an attempt to asphyxiate her. Coming to the conclusion
that her would-be victim wasn't beautiful, the Lemure intended to kill
Saori first, but finally decided to go after Mamoru Chiba instead, who,
being both handsome and pinned to the ground by throwing knives, was a
much more appealing target to her.
Jetting towards Mamoru at an incredible speed, Puuko-chan's plan was foiled
after Super Sailor Moon interposed herself between the two of them in a
vain attempt to protect him from being killed. While moved to tears by
the Sailor Soldier's gesture of sacrificing herself for the man she loved,
Puuko-chan nevertheless intended to finish her off first before dispatching
her boyfriend. In an act of desperation and determination to the save his
girfriend, Mamoru managed to tear his left arm free and angrily stabbed
the monster in the side with one of the daggers Tiger's Eye had used to
restrain him, puncturing her skin and causing her to rapidly lose air from
her body and deflate. Though she managed to repair her wound and attempted
to blow herself back up, Puuko-chan ended up being destroyed by Super Sailor
Moon's "Moon Gorgeous Meditation".
Height: Variable
Weight: Variable
Eyes: Violet
Hair: Purple
Skin: Sky blue, with a red stripe down her middle and a row of black
diamonds on either side
.
Abilities: Aside from being able to
emerge from Tiger's Eye's shadow when summoned, Puuko-chan, as befitting
her appearance, could inflate her rubbery humanoid body to the point where
she resembled a giant balloon. Able to float naturally in this form, she
could also release a stream of air from herself, allowing her to shoot
through the air like a rocket and land on top of her opponents, whereupon
she would crush them beneath her enormous girth in an attempt to suffocate
them. Like a real balloon, Puuko-chan was extremely sensitive to puncture
wounds, and, if her skin was broken, she would quickly lose the air contained
within her body until her normal proportions were reached.
Paraphernalia: Puuko-chan carried a
roll of tape with her to repair any accidentally acquired puncture wounds,
as well as a foot-driven air pump to inflate herself in case of emergencies.
