Line 24:
* [[Mook Maker]]: The final boss is one. In fact, that's his only attack.
* [[Never Trust a Title]]: The game's title screen suggests that this game is called 'Apidya II', which has led many people to ask about Apidya I. There isn't one. This is the original Apidya, and the 'II' was supposed to be a joke.
* [[One -Hit -Point Wonder]]: If you don't have a shield, Ikuro dies if anything hits him. Even if he hits scenery. This is likely due to shoot-em-up legacy of the time - spaceships in horizontally-scrolling shooters were always One Hit Point Wonders.
* [[Puffer Fish]]: the first boss of the final boss rush is one - to be specific, a long-horned cowfish. Appropriately, it's an [[Energy Absorption|Energy Absorber]]; it gets larger and more powerful the more you shoot it. Until it explodes. Into more fish.
* [[Segmented Serpent]]: The eel boss is the most fitting example, since it moves around like a snake, but there are other segmented enemies: some odd pond animal with an extending jaw, and swinging electrical cables in the sewer level. Don't forgot the {{spoiler|Dead Rat boss when maggots rise from the corpse}} and {{spoiler|Doll Face Brat's hand}}.
