| 22 | * KingMook: A larger, more dangerous version of the normal mudman enemy. |
| 23 | * PublicDomainCharacter: Skanda could refer to the individual, the son of a virtuous king who promised Buddha to protect the Dharma (teachings, essentially) and Sangha (congregation). |
| 24 | ** Alternatively, Skanda could refer to the ''Skandha'', otherwise known as The Five Aggregates that give rise to cravings and materiality. Considering the history of the 5th and 6th Children, this seems more likely to be the intended theme. |

| 82 | * MirrorBoss: At least, he wields several of Lemeza's subweapons. |
| 83 | * MultiArmedAndDangerous |
| 84 | * MultiMeleeMaster: It helps that he has six arms. Subverted in the original game in that while he has multiple weapons, he never attacks you in melee (he does in the remake, though). |
| 85 | * OneSteveLimit: May be a reason for the name change in the remake. In Temple of the Sun, one of the statues is Shu, the ''Egyptian'' deity of air who isn't related to this sub-boss at all. |
| 86 | * PublicDomainCharacter: Chi You (or [[SpellMyNameWithAnS Chiyou]]) is a Chinese God of War and considered one of three legendary founding fathers of China. |

| 121 | * MeaningfulName: Kulullû means 'Fish-Man'. Also named after the ancient Mesopotamian mythical monster. |
| 122 | * UnintentionallyUnwinnable: In the remake, it's possible to use glitches to enter the Dimensional Corridor without the Helmet. If this is done, entering Kulullu's room by any means other than the ladder on the right will trap Lemeza thanks to the waterfalls, forcing a reset. |

| 159 | * MeaningfulName: Named after MuÅ¡maḫḫū from ancient Mesopotamian mythology. The name translates to 'Exalted Dragon'. |
| 160 | * TookALevelInBadass: The ball with holes is no longer the weak spot in the remake, and the snakes are now bigger, faster and harder to hit. |
| 161 | * ZergRush: Those are a lot of snakes you have to deal with at once. |

| 169 | One of Tiamat's children, a mythological hybrid fought in the Dimensional Corridor. |

| 201 | * LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: In the remake. In the original it never uses its shield. |
| 202 | * NonIndicativeName: Based on Laḫmu, meaning "(the) Hairy One", which a suit of armor is definitely not. |
| 203 | * PublicDomainCharacter: Based on Taimat's and Abzu's daughter, who is also the mother of the first gods. |
| 204 | * WhatCouldHaveBeen: The earliest design for Lahamu shows that she would have only been fought as a ThreateningShark. |

| 235 | ---- |
| 236 | * GlowingEyesOfDoom: In the remake, its eyes start to glow when its about to attack. |
| 237 | * MeaningfulName: "Urudimmu" is most likely supposed to be "Uridimmu" from Mesopotamian mythology, which can be translated as "mad/howling dog/lion" or "gruesome hound", and is a human-headed dog-man or lion-man. |
| 238 | ** Zigzagged with "Urmahlullu", which appears to be used to refer more exclusively to a lion-man rather than a hound; however, Sumerian culture tended to group canines and felines together linguistically, so the name can still be interpreted as referring to a dog. |
| 239 | ** Enlil is a Mesopotamian god of wind, air, earth, and storms, which is referenced by how the boss attacks. However, Enlil was usually depicted as a man, not a hound. |
| 240 | * OddNameOut: Zigzagged. All the rest of Tiamat's children are named after their corresponding counterpart in Mesopotamian mythology. Its original name, "Urudimmu", is one of Tiamat's creations; "Urmahlullu" and "Enlil" are not. |
| 241 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: Three of them. |
| 242 | * SavageWolves |
| 243 | * SpellMyNameWithAnS: Some translations of its name spells it name as "Fenlil", which is probably supposed to be "Fenrir" from Norse mythology. Though since this strays from the Mesopotamian ThemeNaming, this spelling is likely inaccurate. |
| 244 | * SuperScream: Its howl creates a shockwave in the remake. |
| 245 | * TeleportSpam: In the original. In the remake it still teleports but not as much. |

| 384 | * KingMook: A larger, more powerful version of the normal Anubis enemies. |

| 612 | * PublicDomainCharacter: Based on a mythical horse that appears in many mythologies and cultures. Famously, it's known to approach pure maidens. |
| 613 | * ZeroEffortBoss: If one positions themselves on a ledge by the rightmost pillar on the lower level, Unicorn cannot hurt Lumisa. The player is then free to smack it to death. |

| 631 | ---- |
| 632 | * BodyHorror: For one, Cerberus has a sickly-pale, almost grey human body with ribs and hip bones showing through the skin. Parts of its necks show bright red and there are red tendrils flaring out behind its heads. The way it moves seems very unnatural. [[spoiler:And that's not even getting to the ''human head'' on the end of its snake tail.]] |
| 633 | * BreathWeapon: Spits a spread of three fireballs. [[spoiler:It's "snake" head also breathes blue projectiles.]] |
| 634 | * JumpScare: [[spoiler:The sudden appearance of the final head, the accompanying noise and the fact that it immediately begins attacking the moment it appears can catch unsuspecting players off guard.]] |
| 635 | * MarionetteMotion: There's something about the way that its heads move that's really jerky and overall feels off. |
| 636 | * MixAndMatchCritters: In the original myth, Cerberus has serpentine attributes that tends to be glossed over. This Cerberus has a human's body and hound heads while having a snake for a tail and snake-like necks. It also has horns. |
| 637 | * NotQuiteDead: [[spoiler:You've depleted its health bar and it falls to the ground. Done, right? Wrong, you still have one more head!]] |

| 647 | ---- |
| 648 | * BreathWeapon: Each head breathes fire in a different way: the dragon head spits big fireballs, the goat head spits smaller ones and the lion head spits in an arc. |
| 649 | * FlawedPrototype: Being the first of the chimeras made, Chimera was "assembled carelessly", to quote the bestiary: with only the instinct to fight left, it's doubtful if it can be called a "living being". |
| 650 | * MixAndMatchCritters: It's Chimera, of course it is. In-game it has a goat's head, a lion's head and what looks like a dragon's head, with bird feet and a snake for a tail. Funny enough, its heads are on a large rotating wheel rather than all being connected to the body at once. |

| 685 | ---- |
| 686 | * BubbleGun: It makes a stream of bubbles at the parameters of the arena, to prevent you from sticking to the walls to avoid its attacks. |
| 687 | * EnergyWeapon: Fires some from its single eye. |
| 688 | * {{Expy}}: A large (mini)boss that takes up the bottom of the screen, is only vulnerable in its one eye, which it will periodically extend out of its socket allowing you to hit it more easily. Just like Viy from the first game. |
| 689 | * GiantEnemyCrab: And of course, you have to AttackItsWeakPoint for massive damage. |
| 690 | * IAmLegion: Is actually made of countless crabs put together. |
| 691 | * PublicDomainCharacter: Based on the legend behind the Cancer constellation. |
| 692 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: Has a single red eye, which is also its weak point. |

| 703 | * PublicDomainCharacter: Based on a creature from Greek mythology of the same name, Ladon was depicted as serpent-like dragon that guarded the golden apples in the Garden of the Hesperides. |
| 704 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: Both the skull and the snakes have these. |
| 705 | * SpamAttack: Its snakes continuously spit out small flames. |

| 719 | * TurnsRed: Once all the heads have been taken out, the main body starts moving faster and more erratically. |

| 740 | ---- |
| 741 | * AnimeHair: The woman's long hair is in a perfect crescent shape. It almost looks like a tail. |
| 742 | * TheDividual: Technically two characters but treated as one, with both called by the same name. This could possibly be a nod to the original legend, where Phaia the boar was named after Phaia the woman. It could also be a way for the game to avoid the AmbiguousSyntax, as another telling of the legend stated that the Crommyonian Sow was a murderous robber woman, not a boar, who was called a sow due to having no manners. |
| 743 | * DualBoss: Becomes one midway through the boss, as the woman gets off the boar she's been riding on and the two begin attacking you separately. |
| 744 | * MindMeld: The woman and the boar share a consciousness. Apparently she gained this ability naturally, without use of the 3rd Children's chimera technology. |
| 745 | * NonIndicativeName: "Phaia" (or Phaea) is Greek for "grey". Neither components of the boss, the woman and the boar, are grey. This is because in the original legend, Phaia was the name of the old woman who raised the Crommyonian Sow. |
| 746 | * PublicDomainCharacter: Based off of the Greek mythical pig/boar Phaia, also known as the Crommyonian Sow. |

| 769 | * MeatMoss: It's just a pulsating mound of meat with three faces, hanging from the ceiling. |

| 1014 | * PublicDomainCharacter: Belial is a figure who appears in the Hebrew bible, Jewish texts, Christian sources and the Ars Goetia. Some sources say that Belial is a personification of the devil, others state that it's a characterization of someone who is wicked or worthless. In the Ars Goetia, Belial is a demon king. |

| 1022 | A blade-throwing fox fought in the Takamagahara Shrine. |
| 1023 | ---- |
| 1024 | * AsianFoxSpirit: A huli jing. |
| 1025 | * BossArenaUrgency: A DescendingCeiling of spikes activates when Daji appears, making it harder to jump and hit the boss the longer the fight goes. Take too long and Lumisa will get crushed. |
| 1026 | * PublicDomainCharacter: Daji was originally the favoured consort of King Zhou of Shang, the last king of the Shang Dynasty in Ancient China. Literature portrayed her as a malevolent fox spirit or being possessed by one, and she's often considered a classic example of how beauty leads to downfall in Chinese culture. Her character as a fox spirit has been used and referenced in many works. |

| 1037 | ---- |
| 1038 | * BlowYouAway: Fujin's specialty is launching sharp disks of wind. |
| 1039 | * DualBoss: Subverted. While you do have to fight both at the same time, Raijin only appears once Fujin reaches low health. After Raijin shows up, Fujin can be taken out pretty quickly so you don't actually have to fight both simultaneously. Averted in Hard Mode, where they both appear simultaneously [[spoiler:making both bosses much easier if you have Mjolnir]]. |
| 1040 | * HornedHumanoid: Fujin has one horn while Raijin has two. |
| 1041 | * PublicDomainCharacter: Raijin is a god of lightning, thunder and storms while Fujin is a god of wind from Shinto religion |

| 1078 | |
| 1079 | A large squirrel-like monster that appears several times in the game. [[spoiler:Its true form, Hraesvelgr, is encountered in the Eternal Prison.]] |
| 1080 | ---- |
| 1081 | * CameBackWrong: [[spoiler:Brought back to life as the last mini-boss in Spiral Hell. Unlike the other mini-bosses, which had been resurrected without their heads, Ratatoskr was brought back to life as a decomposing corpse.]] |
| 1082 | * ImprovisedWeapon: Comes up in the last fight with him. [[spoiler: He uses the Ankh Jewel he stole much earlier in the game as a weapon by firing lasers out of it!]] |
| 1083 | * {{Leitmotif}}: "[[https://picosong.com/w23DF Ratatoskr]]" |
| 1084 | * FragileSpeedster: [[spoiler:His true form is absurdly faster and agressive that not even the Lamp of Time is able to slow him down, but most of his attacks deal low damage and he goes down very quickly.]] |
| 1085 | * PublicDomainCharacter: Based on the squirrel who delivered messages to Vedfolnir and Nidhogg on Yggdrasil. |
| 1086 | ** [[spoiler: Hraesvelgr is based on a giant who can transform into an eagle.]] |
| 1087 | * PlayingWithFire: One of his attacks is to breathe fireballs at you. |
| 1088 | * RecurringBoss: You fight him no less than five times throughout the game. [[spoiler:Seven if you count his fights against his true form and his undead form.]] |
| 1089 | * SealedEvilInACan: [[spoiler:His true form, Hraesvelgr, is sealed below the entrance to the Underworld. That doesn't stop him from sending his weaker form at you. Very later in the game, you have to unseal him in order to finish him off for good. And even that doesn't stick, as his Ratatoskr form comes back as a zombie in the final area of the game.]] |
| 1090 | * TookALevelInBadass: Justified. The closer he is to his actual body in the Underworld, the stronger he is. When you first fight him, outside of Eg-Lana, he's very weak. However, every fight you have with him occurs deeper and deeper into the ruins, making him stronger as a result. [[spoiler: And even after being killed, he's still strong enough to kill Lumisa at the end of the game.]] |
| 1091 | * {{Troll}}: In one instance he breaks open a chest and steals the Ankh Jewel inside, presumably for no reason other than to be a dick. You don't get it back from him until much later. |
