Medusa

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.

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.

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.
If she is defeated but the player has failed the objective (killing 100 rats) there is a short cutscene where Medusa has turned the whole team to stone.
