Description[]

Toukiden: The Age of Demons (in-game)
A large Oni with the body of a spider and the head of a lion, they are highly feared by the villagers. With their sickle-shaped claws, they can cut through just about anything. Amongst the larger Oni, they appear quite often, meaning that having killed one is the mark of a worthy Slayer.
蜘蛛のような身体と獅子に似た 頭を持つ、大型の“鬼”。民間においては牛鬼と呼ばれる。 のように鋭い二本の鉤爪は、恐ろしいほどの切れ味を秘めている。
大型“鬼”の中では、比較的よく見かけられるため、このミフチを討つことが、一人前のモノノフの証となる。[1]

Appearance[]

Manhunters are large Oni with a purplish-black, spider-like body, six legs and two sickle-shaped limbs on their backs, as well as two large, spherical spider eggs. They also have two large chelicerae in the sides of their mouths, six yellow eyes, a black mane on their heads and a pair of curved horns, with smaller horns on the sides.

Combat[]

Destructible parts[]

  • All legs and both sickles can be severed and purified, and can be completely destroyed in Toukiden 2. All legs will also be destroyed in a single Oni Burial.
  • The horns can be permanently broken.

Attack techniques[]

"Slash" is most effective against its numerous legs.

Attacks[]

  • Charges forward. Can be countered with Oni Throw in Toukiden 2.
    • When its essence is revealed, it will slash at the target with both sickles afterwards.
  • Spits three balls of spider web in the direction of the target, which will be immobilized if hit.
    • When its essence is revealed, it will spit a beam of spider web instead.
  • Quickly jumps forward. If two or more legs have been severed, it will fall upon landing.
  • Turns and jumps backwards.
  • Slashes at the target with the both sickles.
    • When its essence is revealed, it will finish the attack with both sickles at the same time. This will make the sickles be stuck on the ground, leaving the Oni vulnerable.
  • Spins and slashes with both sickles.
  • Slashes continuously with its sickles, finishing with a spinning slash. The sickles are imbued with its spider web during this attack (Toukiden 2).

Higher difficulty exclusives:

  • Slams both sickles in the ground, sending ice spikes in multiple directions.
  • Spits multiple balls of spider web upwards, which will quickly follow the target (Toukiden 2).

Manhunters will enter this state when they have half health left. It consists of a single attack, which will be repeated every time their essence is revealed.

  • Spins on its legs and moves around the battlefield while shooting rocks. The spinning attack deals much more damage than the rocks, and targets hit with it will be knocked into the air.
