Description
Draydou commands as one of the seven generals of the Mycenae Empire, leading the Reptilian Warrior Beast forces during the invasion chronicled in the *Great Mazinger* television series and related media. His title, "Mystic Reptilian General," signifies his high rank within the imperial military.
His robotic form evokes an Eastern dragon. In his primary *Great Mazinger* television appearance, he sports blue coloring and attire reminiscent of a French musketeer, complete with a cape and hat. His true face, featuring red skin, a mustache, and a beard, is prominently displayed on his abdomen. An alternate design in the *Mazinkaiser* OVA depicts him with a green dragon-like body and red garments, though his facial placement remains unchanged. The dragon head component of his body projects long-range fire, described as radioactive in manga sources. His mechanical construction grants significant durability for sustained combat.
Personality-wise, Draydou demonstrates notable cunning in devising large-scale, brutal military strategies designed to overwhelm opponents. Yet, he simultaneously employs underhanded tactics and maintains a cautious approach, meticulously monitoring the execution of his schemes.
Within the *Great Mazinger* television series narrative, Draydou spearheads multiple assaults against human defenders. His battlefield strategies often place the Great Mazinger at an early tactical disadvantage. Despite these efforts, his campaigns ultimately fail. His final confrontation against the combined forces of Great Mazinger and Mazinger Z ends when the Jet Scrander attacks from behind, bisecting his robotic form.
In the *Mazinkaiser* OVA continuity, Draydou participates in the Mycenae assault on the Photon Power Laboratory. Following Mazinkaiser's activation and the decimation of Mycenae forces, Draydou attempts to flee. His escape is abruptly terminated when the fortress Demonika descends upon him, crushing his body.
Draydou is consistently listed among the Seven Great Generals in all referenced media, alongside figures like the Great General of Darkness, Superhuman General Julicaesar, and Bird General Birdler, confirming his established command role.
