The Mantispider is a giant species of insectoid with the traits of an arachnid that was once used as a living weapon during a war within the nation of Ligu.
Anatomy[]
It is a giant insectoid with upper-body and claws of a green praying mantis and the abdomen, eight legs and eyes of a brown spider. It has three yellow stripes on its abdomen and its four eyes are dark red in color.
Behavior[]
It feeds on humans and it is a relentless fighter, as one would expect from a Living Weapon.
Powers and Abilities[]
Its large claws give it a powerful offense and it appears to be quite agile. Due its arachnid anatomy, it is capable of producing giant spider webs in which to trap prey and store its food.
History[]
Meteor Garlic Arc[]
In the anime, when Rin and Toriko went to the poverty-stricken nation of Ligu to deliver presents on Christmas, they saw a Mantispider about to eat a small child. Luckily Toriko stepped and was able to defeat the beast, and he quickly realized that it was a living weapon left over from the war in Ligu.
