Behind the Scenes
Portrayal
- The Medusa Minusaur is portrayed by suit actor Yuichi Hachisuka (蜂須賀祐一 Hachisuka Yūichi).
Notes
- Curiously, a Medusa-like monster appeared in Dino Super Charge, another dinosaur-themed series.
- Unlike the adaptation, his counterpart debuted in a movie before appearing in the series on which Dino Super Charge is based.
- She is the first and so far only female Minosaur to be shown in the show.
- Her design (IE: Her face not showing her eyes) draws some similarities to Dayu Usukawa, Naria, and Akyanba (All were also portrayed by Yuichi Hachisuka, her suit actor).
- Altough called the "Medusa Minosaur", her design actually draws inspiration from the Gorgon (Medusa being one of the most notable members of the species). The sword and the face with open mouth showing curved teeth also implies inspiration from Indonesian things like Keris and Leak.
- In the stage shows at Japan, the Medusa Minosaur has a male variant, with black and red sword.
