Draudas (ドラウダス,   Doraudasu) is a mecha that first appeared in the 1982 animated series Warrior of Love Rainbowman, where it was constructed by the Die-Die Gang over the course of the second and third episodes as part of their planned takeover of Earth. Draudas is the first Devil Mecha to be created by the Die-Die Gang, and is the first giant robot antagonist of the series. Deathnoid No. 13078 (デスノイドナンバー13078,   Desunoido Nanbā Ichi San Maru Nana Hachi) was selected to become one with Draudas.

Design

Draudas is a Devil Mecha with a bird-like face and a yellow, black, and dark blue color scheme. It has four claws on each hand that serve as weapons, and spits blue fire from its yellow beak which houses two protruding tusks. It has flashing red eyes with a stripe between them and two devil horns. It uses the spikes on its shoulder pads to ram opponents.

History

Showa era

Warrior of Love Rainbowman (1982)

"Go! Warrior of Love"

At the behest of Emperor Dongolos, work on the first Devil Mecha continued, with Draudas' torso being constructed under the watchful eye of Mr. K and Fairie Rosé.

"Fight! Rainbow Seven"

After Rainbowman disrupted the Empire's early attempt to invade Earth, Draudas' body was completed by Doctor Gilma and readied to launch against the planet's protector. When Fairie Rosé was thwarted by Rainbowman, Dongolas selected Deathnoid Number 13078 as its symbiont pilot to become one with Draudas and combat their enemy. Draudas was shot out of the top of the Die-Die Gang's undersea pyramid headquarters and landed near the home of Dr. Tomoya, inventor of a powerful laser canon that Die-Die Gang hoped to steal for themselves after killing its creator. Draudas exploded from its canister casing and swatted at Rainbowman before trying to blast him with fire breath. The giant mech Rainbow Seven then materialized, and Rainbowman assumed control of it. Draudas shoulder-bashed the rainbow robot, and slashed at its chest with his claws before Rainbow Seven fired a "Rainbow Flash" attack from its head that caused Draudas to explode, destroying it and killing its merged pilot.
