History
Megaloman
"Dagger is Alive"
Vaguuma was a vampire-like agent in service of Captain Dagger who used a pair of specialized sunglasses to keep her murderous bloodlust in check as well as to protect herself when operating in broad daylight. Vaguuma was later defeated by Takashi Shishido and his teammates and, as punishment for her failure, Captain Dagger and Barock forcefully mutated her into a giant mindless monster. Takashi Shishido transforms into Megaloman to battle Vaguuma, ultimately destroying the villainess.
Trivia
- Vaguuma shares similar names and abilities with the Pachimon character Vacuuma, both being fanged monsters possessing tube-shaped arms for suction though the latter uses them for the literal vacuuming of defenseless victims.
